Dixie's Sons In New York BewaiI Dry
Days Down Home.
Hoke Smith of Georgia was suggest
ed as a candidate for the presidency
on the Prohibition ticket the other
night by Mirabeau L. Towns at the
dinner of the Southern society in New
York
Over each table was a gayly colored
lantern bearing the nickname of thu
state to which the guests seated there
belonged. The Georgia contingent
gathered under Crackers" those from
North Carolina had Tar Heels" above
them, while the Mississippi guests
were designated as "Mossbacks."
Mr.. Towns responded to the toast
Georgia" He was telling of the glO-
ries of the, Empire State of the South.
of her great resources, her splendid
history, and when he spoke of her men
as brave. staid and sober" he was in
terrupted with the laughter of the
diners.
THAT'S So" he said They are GER
tainly sober down there now since
they have prohibition. Why. Hoke
Smith was elected governor of the state
only on his promise that he would not
take drink within the borders Of the
state for two years. And these pro-
hibitionists, who are becoming so plen-
tiful In this country. are going to
make him their leader. With Bryan
and Roosevelt running out the trusts
and Hoke Smith with the prohibition
lists chasing alcohol away, there will
be life in the old land yet"
All the speakers were poeticai. but
the effusion Of Judge Charles F.
Moore. who spoke for Virginia. took on
the nature of lament. 1t was orig
inal. was entitled THE South Is Go
Ing Dry" and was greatly applauded
by the diners. 1t was as follows:
Lay the jest about the julep
In the camphor balls at last,
For the miracle has happened.
And the olden days are past.
That Which made Milwaukee famous
Does not foam in Tennessee,
And the lid in Alabama
Is as tight locked as can be,
And the comic paper colonel
And his cronies well may sigh.
For the mint is waving gayly.
And the south is going dry.
BY the stillside on the hillside
In Kentucky all is still.
And the only damp refreshment
Must DE dipped up from the ril.
North Caroina's stately governor
Gives his soda glass shove
And discusses local option
With the South Carolina gov.
II is useless az the fountain
To be Uinhful OF the eye,
For the cocktail glass is dusty.
Ard the south is going dry.
It Is water water everywhere.
And net drop to drink.
We no longer hear the music
OF the mellow crystal clink,
And the colonel and the general
And the major and the jedge
Meet to have little nip
To give tho appetite an edge.
For the eggnog now is nogless.
And the rye has gone awry.
And the punch bowl holds carnations
And the south is going dry.

North Carolina, Bruce l. Rice for Ten

FAMOUS SCHOLARS.
Men That Might Have Been Called
Human Encyclopedias.

Men That Might Have Been Called
Human Encyclopedias.
It has been said of Macaulay that
not only did he retain in his pro-
digious memory all that he had
ever learned, but that he had learn
ed all manner of things no other
scholar would have retained. Aside
from his astonishingly comprehen-
, sive grasp of many branches of hui
man knowledge, he was specially
proud of the fact that he knew
whole libraries by heart. It was his
boast that in the event of a whole
| sale destruction of certain classics
he would be able to supply the def
cheney out of his memory. 1t was
claimed among other things that he
could recite paradise Lost" with
out moments pause for refreshing
his recollection and that to reel off
all the plays of Shakespeare was
only ehild's play to him.
Another English scholar of as
tonishing erudition was Lyulph
Stanley, of whom Lowell said, Gle
knows three times as many facts as
any man whatever had any bust
ness to know"
Stanley is said to have had only
one rival, Palgrave, the compiler Of
''The Golden Treasury" otis an
even chance which will return
alive" was said when Stanley and
Palgrave went on a trip together.
When they did come back, it is re-
lated, Palgrave was pale, emaciated,
silent. But Stanley seemed unmov-
ed and more all knowing than ever.
Another human encyclopedia was
Buckle, author of "The History of
Civilization One night, it is said,
he was laying down the law on SUM-
dry topics with pomposity Tat
caused the table to quake. At last
he put forth some statement about
the burning of witch, setting the
date about century out of the way.
Stanley, who was present, had borne
some preceding inaccuracies very
well, with only a shaking of the
head and reddening of the face.
But at this juncture his self con-
troll gave way and he leaped to his
feet. Extending his hand, he piped
forth in a vigorous treble: 81 beg
your pardon, sir, but the last witch
was burned at such and such a
place, in such and such circum-
stances. And her name was So-and-
so, and you will find all about it il
a book to which I can easily refer
you and which you evidently don't
know"
And so torrents of imprisoned
knowledge were poured on Buckles
head until the historian of civiliza-
ton sat wrathfui, extinguished,
mute. But in little while he had
his revenge. Some one had men
toned new dictionary as a good
one. at is" said Buckle most sol

God Of our fathers. known Of old.
Lord Of our far flung battle line,
Beneath whose awful hand We hold
Dominion over palm and pine
Lord God of Hosts, be with US yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget!
The tumult and the shouting dies,
The captains and the kings depart
Still stands thine ancient sacrifice
An humble and a contrite heart.
Lord God of Hosts, be with US yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget!
Far called, our navies melt away;
On dune and headland sinks the fire.
10, all our pomp of yesterday
Is one with Nineveh and Tyre!
Judge of the nations, spare Us yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget!
If, drunk with sight of power, we loose
Wild tongues that have not thee in

Such boasting as the gentiles use
Or lesser breeds without the law
Lord God of Hosts. be with us yet.
Lest We forget-lest we forget!

In reeking tube and iron shacd-
All valiant dust that builds on dust
And, guarding, calls not thee to

FOR frantic boast and foolish word,
Thy mercy On thy people, Lord!

MOROCCAN REBELS ROUTED.
Great Victory Is Gained by French
in Desperate Battle.

Tangier-News has reached here OF
a terrific ten hours engagement in d
raVine near Settat Wednesday be,
tween a French column under the
command of Gen. d dAmade, and a col.
umn commanded by Mulai Rachid, one
of the chiefs Of Mulai IIalid's forces.
The French gained ii splendid vic.
tory in the face of heavy odds, sue.
cCeding in dispensing the enemy and
occupying Scttat. Twenty of the
French soldiers were wounded, but
many of the Arabs were killed The
latter not oaRy offered a logged and
fearless defense, but returned repeat
edly to the battle after they had been
routed, and attacked the French from
three sides.
In the later hours of the fighting
Mulai RaChids column was sudden.
ly REINFORCED by the powerful ChaOuia
tribe, which figured in the massacres
at Casablanca and which had arrived
from the mountains at the very mo.
ment when Mulai Rachid was about to
retreat.
Under the combined charge of the
now confident Moors, the French not
only held their ground, but steadily
threw back the enemy, driving them
eventually in mad haste to the hills.
The engagement between the French
and the Moors followed Immediately
dAmade's column, and under these
trying circumstances the French
forces are considered to have shown
more than ordinary stamina and
bravery. The French wounded in
clude three officers.
After destroying the camp of the
enemy at Settat, Gen. GAmade pushed
forward and occupied Kasbah Ber
ROhid.
