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. Tillman was hard at
work, doing the actual work of wash
Ing the asparagus and marking the
boxes 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
Ia 40 to SO cents bunch.
When first approached Senator
Tillman talked slowly and deliberate
ly. but after warming up to questions
of interest to him his old time fire
was apparent. While he Is some
what feeble physically, his mind is
perfectly clear as was evidenced by
the various topics he discussed in
vigorous manner and the interest he
displayed In State and national af-
fairs.
When the senator was first strick
en- he said that the attack came upon
him as If fash from a gun. He
attributes the present illness to that
with which he suffered A years ago,
when he lost his eye. he was SINH
larly effected then and has had sew
eral attacks of like character since
that time.
Senator Tillman's wishes are to get
away from everything and have alb
solute rest for time and he feels
and hopes that this will restore him
to hs former vigor
During the course OF conversation
reference was made to the recent
speech of Senator Tillman in the SEN
ate, in which he took the Republi-
cans to task and incidentally gave
President Roosevelt walloping. He
said that never before in his life had
he felt less like making a speech.
Eor had he ever before experienced
such a strain and effort as he did
while delivering his address on
March 16. He said that he WAS In
full possession of his facts and
thoughts, but still he was unable to
assemble HIS ammunition as he
should like to have done. He gave
notice on Saturday of his intention
to deliver the address on Monday
and had but a brief period to pre-
pare his remarks.
Altogether. II may be said that
Senator Tillman, as well as Mrs
Tillman, hope that the senator will
soon be restored to his usual heath
and will resume his place in the fight
for Democracy supremacy.
Senator. did you see much of the
late Senator William James BryaT
of Florida. and what was your opin
ion of him?"
We'll, he was in the senate onl!
short time, but he gave every prom
ise of being valuable addition u
the Democratic side" He said tina
Senator Bryan's death had grieveC
him very much. as It had other sena
