To the sombre silent Teche. and my

With it. giant moss grown trees;
Give me the sweet magnolia bloom,
Waited on the breeze.
Give me the 'Cadian farmers life,

Give me the quaint old township

And my New Iberian cot.
In far of sickly land, on pallet low
I'm lain,
While visions Of my childhood pass
through my fevered brain.
I see my mother sitting BY the cottage

upon the floor

change which is made by intelligent critics and candid friends has been antic- ipated. and that 1t would be difficult for any one to conceive an improvement in efficiency in the force of a practicable kind which has not already received at tention at Scotland Yard whether 1t has been possiblest to bring it into practice or not.
 In a word Scotland Yard-from being a spot where high functionaries worked diligently by precedent, content to carry on their business as their predecessor had done-has become, in a creative sense the nerve and brain center of the service. It is alive" in the most comprehensive and modern meaning of the term, Moth ing is too trivial for it's consideration, if 1t affects in the smallest degree the vel fare of the force; nothing is too wide or far-reaching for it to grasp, If it bears upon the conduct or reputation of the police.

The establish ment of the school for training consta- bles was one of these It is in It's infan- cy as yet-having been at work less than two years-but 1t may prove the foun- dation for changes to come that will make some commissioners of bygone days turn in their graves.

BOOM IN GEM IMPORTATION.
Country's Ability to Spend Money
 Shown in Appraisers Figures.

From the New York Press.
 That general store of MT. U. Sam at Christopher and Washington streets transacted much business last month the chief representative of the owner said Tuesday. That agent Is George w Wanmaker, appraiser of the port. His monthly statement of imports in January showed that precious stones entered at this port for the month had six times the value of those entered in the corre- spending period last year
 The value of the diamonds entered last month was s1,95S, ,963.2s, compared with $313, 456.57 in January, 1908.
 Imports of automobiles have dropped about one-half, but the general business of the port Is growing steadily. The total appraised value for the last month over 1908 was approximately $9,500, 900. Wanmaker believes the imports would be much larger only for the talk of re- vising the tariff. many importers thereby being induced to wait in the hope of lower duties.
 The number of invoices for last January was 31 995, compared with 36,176 last year and Al SIS in 1907. Last month 2,S30 last year and 4l,61S in 1907. Last month 62. s9O packages were examined compared with 65.929 last year and 71,932 in 1907. Total value of the merchandise for Jan uary was $62.959, 703.31, compared with $58,- AIS, 9.51 last year and ST, 616, 951.02 for the same period in 1907.

of any observer who has seen what has been and what is now going on that a force is at work among our London po- lice, kneading them together brightening their lives. stimulating their minds, giv- ing them a higher sense of duty and far greater sense of security if they intend to play the game than they ever had be- fore. With constables and officers alike. it is raising the standard of duty and comradeship in a manner which will not only do all that influence from above can do to make the policemen of today and tomorrow better and truer men, but will establish a tradition and an example that will go down to the future genera tions and stamp these first eight years of the 10th century as the greatest and the best In the history of a service which, with all it's limitations. is one of the noblest as well one of the most eff cient in the empire.

Tulsa, Okla, April 30, 1909. Mir. Frank D. Fuller,
 Birmingham, Ala
 Dear Sir:
 Your favor of the 2sth received and noted. In reply, I beg to state that af- ter making a thorough investigation of every town in the State of Oklahoma, I have decided to build an S0-ton cotton seed oil mill at Tulsa, to cost S8O, ,O0O.0O Since l have located here, there have been two other plants located near me; one glass factory, and the other pulley factory. All come to Tulsa to take advantage of the cheap fuel. We get gas here from Sc to Sc per 1000 feet depending on how much you burn per day, and there is no town or city in the United States that can furnish fuel for manufacturing cheap as Tulsa.
 I am informed that Tulsa has today about ,000 population, and l believe 1t will make city of 50,000 population within the next six years on account of the resources, it has gas. oil and coal, and very rich agricultural district. Now in regard to your College Heights property 1t lies high and level, and you can see all over the city of Tulsa from any lot in this plat, and the writer thinks that anyone that can in- vest $400 in real estate will double their money. just as soon as the city car line Is completed to the college, which will be September 1.
 The Oklahoma Traction Go. has been granted a franchise in Tulsa for an in- terurban line to connect Tulsa and Sa- pulpa. This town is IA miles from Tulsa This interurban line will run right through the College Heights property, and. that will give the College Heights two street car lines
 
 Tulsa, this is the time to invest, be- fore these car lines are completed Peo- pie are coming from all over the coun- try to locate here. It is estimated there are 1900 to 1900 transient people visit ing Tulsa daily, looking for invest ments
 You are at liberty to use this let ter as you see fit, as I am a firm be- liever in the future of Tulsa. Wish ing you success. Any time that I can be of any service to you, call on me.
 Yours truly,
 F. G. KINNEY.
