A Poet-Laureate's Life.

Alfred Austin, like many others who
have devoted themselves to literature.
seems TO have discovered the secret OF
perpetual youth, says NJ. A. p. He
is well over seventy, but does not look
day older than half a century, and he
is still as keenly critical as in the days
OF his early success. His energy is
probably due TO his love of the simple
life, for he prefers the beauties OF
nature to the artificiality of Lncolns
drawing rooms, and although not so
much a recluse as was his predecessor,
Tenyson, he is seldom seen in public,
and spends most of his time at his
charming home at Ashford, in Kent.
In this pretty part Of the country,
when not engaged in courting the muse
he devotes himself to riding, garden.
Ing and fishing. He is also fond of for
eign travel, but is patriot of patriots,
and will be remembered by posterity
as a genuine lover of his native land,
and an enthusiastic singer of her beau
ties

Is lie TO Blame?

Will the planter and farmer con-
tinue 10 stand in his own light allow
ing the country store keeper 10 die
tate 10 him? Will the planter and
the farmer continue inactive regard
ing the creation and maintenance Of
good roads because the country store
keeper opposes them?
II is freely stated all over the
country that the greatest cuemy OF
the good roads is the country store
keeper, and especially is he the enc
my of the good road that leads TO
the central town or city for the rea-
son that he fears that some OF the
trade OF the farmers or planters NAV
be diverted from him. He is in favor
of good roads so long as they lead
only TO his store, but let them lead
10 the point where the product OF the
farm or plantation is 10 be marketed
and he is the enemy that has TO be
contended with.
There is not any doubt but the
country store keeper is a power In Il
way. He is the central point for his
disseminated, and his opinions in
some sections have more weight than
those of any other individual there
abouts. He knows how TO combat
any project that he does not think
for his advantage and the idea is fast
gaining ground that he is TO a great
degree responsible for the backward
ness of the country people in i'm
proving public property.
The only country property the
country people have are the roads
and drains, and it would appear that
it would not be a difficult matter for
those TO he placed in proper shape
and kept i'm order. but the applica-
tions to the county of parish govern,
ing bodies for improvements seldom
or never concern the roads leading TO
the centres of population, because
the country store keeper is opposed
thereto.
Such being the case, It would seem
reasonable that the merchants OF the
central town or city should take mp
the matter Of the roads leading into
their city and press for their improve
ment. If the country people will not
act in the matter then the city mer-
chant. If he desires the trade from
the country, should see that the roads
leading into the centre are kept in
the very best order.

Wants Favorite Horse Shot.

BY the will of Miss Henrietta Knis-
pei, who died at Belleyille, where she
had taught for more than thirty years,
her old horse Nellie is condemned to
death Fearing that the animal, which
for many years had hauled her to
school, would not be properly taken
care of, Miss Knispel ordered that af-
ter her death it be shot and buried in
the orchard at the testator's country
home, Rosedale.

better fate. the will providing it be

NEW IDEA
Helped Wis. Couple.

II doesn't pay to stick too closely
10 old notions of things. New ideas
often lead 10 better health, success
and happiness.
A Wis. couple examined an idea
new TO them and stepped up several
rounds on the health ladder. The
husband writes:
Several years ago we suffered
from coffee drinking, were sleepless,
nervous, sallow. weak, and irritable.
My wife and l both loved coffee and
thought II was bracer. (delusion).
Finally, after years OF suffering,
we read OF Postum and the harmful
ness OF coffee, and believing that to
grow we should give some attention
to new ideas. we decided 10 test Pos
tum.
when we made 1t right we liked
Il and were relieved OF ills caused by
coffee. Our friends noticed the
.change-fresher skin. sturdier nerves,
better temper. etc.
These changes were not sudden,
but relief increased as we continued
20 drink and enjoy Postum, and we
lost the desire for coffee.
MANY OF our friends did not like
Postum at FIRST, because they did not
make Il right. But when they boiled
Postum according 10 directions on
pkg. until IT was dark and rich they
liked II better than coffee and were
benefited by the change" There's
a Reason.

Tarrcd Roads and the Trees.

A good deal Of attention has been
directed of late 20 tarring roads TO
lay the dust and keep IL laid. Some
thing must be found TO accomplish
this purpose or the automobiles will
wear out the highways faster than
the State can build them. In some
places tar has been used very satis-
tactorily and has given good results.
Elsewhere. probably in part due 10
improper methods, IT has not worked
so acceptably. Not long since reports
sent out from Paris said that the use
Of tar on the roads was killing the
trees and bushes at the side. II was
asserted that several fine trees on the
famous Bois de Boulogne owed their
death 10 this cause and that 81 was
very difficult 10 maintain the lawns
and flowers near the tar-covered thor
oughfares. This Is an important mat
ter IL the fears expressed are well
founded.-Utica Press.

Thus superstition feeds on ignorance,
And priests on both. The conscious sacrifice
Made by our race to the unknown is vast
And monstrous, but far worse, if worse can be,
Is the deep wrong of brave men sacrificed
By the ignorant populace; kept ignorant
BY priest and ruler, for their selfish ends.
From Socrates to Bruno from the fair
Hypatia to the no less glorious name
Of Ida Craddock, we have killed our best
Through fear of the unknown: And so our race
Languishes like tree whose strongest shoots
Are Topped off constantly from year to year.

The gold on the hilltops the gloom will

Sooner or later, and mankind's long fgh.
Must yield palms of victory all to the Right.
Sooner or later our hands will be still,
But others stand ready our work to fulfil;
Our children will lift up the standard again.
And battle for justice and truth for men.

The children of serfs shall send up the glad

We are free! We are free! by the Brother

THE COST OF FAITH
(By May Beals- Hoifpauir(
There a tale of the Far East that holds
The meaning of the ages, though its text
Might easily be written in the span
Of chlds hand:
A woman sat and wept
Beside the Ganges. One came asking her:
"Why weepest thoug' She answered, sobbing sore
Il have two children. One is beauteous
Beyond the dreams of gods; go to cast
That child unto the river crocodiles."
The other, being of her faith, replied:
Yea, it is meet that appease the gods;
But why not keep the beauteous child alive
And sacrifice the other?'
NAY, not So"
The piOus woman answered bitterly,
MY god must have the best"
IT'S thus our race
Has crept adown the ages meath the load
Of reverence for the unknown The best
The sombre Pyramids of Egypts land,
With all their cost of treasure and of life;
The peerless Parthenon; the wilderness
And countryside, the costly piles upreared
Of graceful Gothic arch and spire; and now
In our own time, in every city, town,
In honor of the lowly Nazarene-
(IIis fellow carpenters may sit on the steps
And freeze and starve the buildings locd all these
Are offerings of best to the unknown.
There comes to mind dingy mining town,
Where men who toll in everlasting night,
And live in rented shacks, have skimped and saved
To build costly brick monstrosity:
1t is her best, and given to their god.

A Narrow Escape.

Natchez, Miss, May "a. Chaplain
w. H. /. Reaney, one of the best be-
loved officers Of the batt1eship, had a
narrow escape from a watery grave
this evening. While in full dress 60
ing to attend the Campbell ball he
missed his footing in stepping from
the steam launch of the battleship to
the ferry landing, and fell between
the landing. Fortunately Lieut.. Com
mander B. B. Mccormack was very
near and caught him in time to save
him from going into the water. He
was wet to his armpits and had to
return to the ship.
The current is exceeding swift at
the landing and had it not been for
the ready assistance Of his brother
officer Father Reaney might have been
swept away, although he is athletic
and a good swimmer. Times Demo-

impeachment Charges
Against Sheriff.

montgomery, Ala, May .24.-The
hEsc trial OF sheriff in Alabama be-
gan mere to-day before the Supreme
Gourt in impeachment charges against
FRANK Cazalas, sheriff of Mobile
county. The charges were filed by
tne Attorney General of the State at
'ne request of Governor Conner, who
acted upon a petition signed by Mobile
citizens asking that action be taken
against the sheriff because a. negro
prisoner charged with murder had
Deen taken from the county jail in the
neart OF the city and lynched by a
possee OF men, one block away from
Lne JAIL and in front of a leading
Episcopal church.
Forty witnesses from Mobile sum-
moned by the State, twelve out of
ABOUT forty summoned by the defend
ant the accused sheriff, Cazalas, his
attorneys, and two attorneys of the
Law and Order League, of that city
were present to-day.
The charges declared that Sheriff
Cazalas was "unmindful of the duty
of his Office during the term of such
office, and has been guilty of the fol-
lowing impeachable conduct:
1. Neglect, owing to which prisoner
was unlawfully taken from the Jail of
Mobile county and put to death.
z. Grave fault in the conduct Of his
Office owing to which a prisoner was
taken from the Mobile county Jail and
put to death.
8. Willful neglect of duty.
a. Incompetency.
After organization the court swore
in forty witnesses for the State and
twelve for the defense. William Nc
Carren and John Powers, former
sheriff, and P. B. Dorian, tax collector,
all of Mobile, swore that there were
no indications about the jail the night
OF the lynching of trouble, and that
the sheriff had no reason from activi-
ties to fear such.
B. B. Cox, secretary of the Mobile
Commercial Club, swore that he was
invited "down to the fun before the
lynching. He was told there would be
hot time in the old town tonight"
Richard Hines, city editor of the
Mobile Register, heard rumors of
trouble early in the night and before
the lynching, these being such as to
indicate that a lynching was likely.
B. Sibley, reporter; F. w. Herman
and several others said that they were
warned that trouble was probable.
W. A. O'Dwyer, a railroad man said
that at a meeting Of railroad men at
the Battle House it was understood
