Mrs. Tillman Shipping Asparagus.
During the conversation OF two
hours or more between Senator Till
man and the representative OF the
State. Mrs. Tillman was busily en-
gagged in the packing house, along
with six or eight hands, preparing
asparagus for shipment by express to
Boston, New York, Richmond and
Atlanta. Mrs. Tiilman was hard at
work. doing the actual work Of wash
ing the asparagus and marking the
hoyes for shipment. She has about
eight acres planted in this vegetable
and has orders for all that she can
furnish. At present the market price
is 40 to SO cents a bunch.
When first approached Senator
Tillman talked slowly and deliberate

Of interest to him his old time lire
was apparent. While he is some
what feeble physically, his mind is
nerfectly clear as was evidenced by
the various topics he discussed in a
vigorous manner and the interest ne
displayed in State and national al
fairs.
When the senator was first strick-

him as il a flash from a/gun. he
attributes the present illness TO tna'
with which he suffered A years ago.
when he lost his eye. He was SINH
larly effected then and has had sew
oral attacks of like character since
that time.
Senator Tillman's wishes are to gel
awav from everything and have aD'
solute rest for a time and ne 1eeis
and hopes that this will restore MIN
to his former vigor.
During the course of conversation
reference was made to the recen'
sneech of Senator Tillman in the sen
ate. in which he took the Repupll'
cans to task and incidentally gave
President Roosevelt walloping. He
said that never before in his life hao
he felt less like making a speech
nor had he ever before experienced
such q strain and effort as he dle
while delivering his address OF
March l6. He said that he was II
full possession of his facts ane
thoughts, but still he was unable oe
assemble his ammunition as NJ
should like to have done. He gave
notice on Saturday of his intentlol
to deliver the address on Monaa1
and had but a brief period to pre-
mare his remarks.
