The Man With The Hoe.

Bowed by the weight of centuries, he leans
Upon his hoe and gazes on the ground.
The emptiness of ages in his face
And on his back the burden of the world.
Who made him dead to rapture and dispalr-
A thing that grieves not and that never hopes
Stolid and stunned, brother to the ok
Who loosened and let down this brutal law?
Whose was the hand that slanted back this brow?
Whose breath blew out the light within this brain?
Is this the thing the Lord Col made and gave
t. have dominion and land,
To trace the stars and search the heavens for power
To feel the passion of eternity?
Is this the dream he dreamed who shaped the
And pillared the blue armament with light?
Down all the stretch of he,, to it's last gulf
There is noshape more terrible than this
More tongued with Of the worlds blind greed
More filled with signs and portents for the soul
More fraught with to the universe.
What CULTS between him and the seraphim9
Slave of the wheel of labor, what to him
Are Plato and the swing Of Pleades?
What the long reaches of the peaks of song,
The rift of dawn, the reddening of the rose!
Thru this dread shape tue suffering ages look
Times tragedy is in that aching stoop.
Thru this dread shape humanity, betrayed,
Pundered profaned and disnheTited,
Cries protests to the judges OF the world,
A protest that is also prophecy.
0 masters, lords and rulers in all lands,
Is this the handwork you give to Cod
This monstrous thing, distorted and soul quenchedF
How will you ever straighten up this shape
Give back the upward looking and the light,
Rebuild in it the music and the dream
Touch it again with immortality,
Make right the immemoral infamies
Pertidious wrongs, immedcable woes?
o masters, lords and rulers in all lands
How will the future reckon with this man?
How answer his brute question in that hour
When whirlwnds of rebellion shake the world?
How will it be with kingdoms and with kings
With those who shaped him to the thing he is
When this dumb terror shall reply to God,
After the silence, Of the centuries?

OPEN NEW ADDITION.

The Henry Realty Co. of Paris,
Tenn, closed deal with ID. n. VIII
son. Saturday. for 20 acres OF ground
on the south side OF town which will
BE- opened as new addition to the
city Of Hickman. This property Ia
better known as the "Mahan proper.
ty." and on Il IL located the famous
Sulphur Springs.
This company makes a speciality Of
buying small tracts OF land near town
and converting Il into town lots.
When they start to open an addition.
there is no monkey business. This
is demonstrated by the manner In
which they are putting the Hickman
deal through. The property was pur.
chased Saturday and on Monday a
big force OF men were busy moving
down the corn field. grading streets,
building bridges. building spring.
house over the spring. making a
dancing pavilion. fencing. laying out
lots, etc. In fact, the old place would
hardly be recognized as the same
now. Its just a way they have OF
doing things when they open a
tract OF land. the first thing they do
is to spend several thousand dollars
improving IL. THIS all comes back
with a big interest on their sale day
and right here Is good lesson for
local property owners. In many In
stances they put In water mains, con
crete walks. lights, paved streets. etc
before the sale date. but we are not
informed as to what extent improve
ments will be made on the Hickman
addition.
When the property Is ready for mar
ket, he lofts are simply sold at auc
ton. letting them bring what they
will They also give a lot free "a
some one who is present at the sale
and like wise a $40 gold piece. Tn,
date OF sale OF Hickman lots will b,
held In September. Full particular
win be given In due time.
Hickman needs. as badly as an,
town did. more residence lots. an'
this property win In a measure re
lieve the present scarcity OF medium
priced lots. Hundreds OF families wi
build homes here where they can pro
cure lots at moderate prices and will
in a reasonable distance OF the busi
ness section.

Every growing. ambitious town Ia
composed of three elements. Those
who work practically. vigorously and
intelligently for its advancement.
those who are In the state Of apathy
of Indifference, and those who take
a curious delight In discouraging the
efforts OF others by ridicule, and by
a persistent denial that any progress
can or has been accomplished. and
by boasts OF every other town be-
sides their own. The last class are
called croakers. but they are really
something worse, for their opposi-
ton does not arise simply from de-
spondency but from that unenviable
spirit that will neither act itself or
suffer others to act.
o.
The corpse OF Chas. Asbury. who
was supposed TO have died three
years ago. was brought from Mark
ed Tree, Ark. Friday and buried by
his friends Saturday at Bardwell. The
case of Asbury is somewhat peculiar.
More than three years ago Mr. As
bury, who lived In the western sec
tion OF the county. left home In a
skiff and went down the Mississippi
river. That was the last time he
was ever heard from until his dead
body was brought back TO Berkeley.
and II was supposed that he had
been drowned In the river.
