ALMOST A
DROWNING.
Mr.. A. s. Bell and Wife Fall
Into Over Flow. How
1t Happened.

On Thursday OF last week Mr.. A.
S. Bell and wife drove across the Yal-
obusha river bridge and made a cir
cult of the grounds surrounding the
Spring Lake Club House for the pur-
pose of ascertaining how the high
water was affecting the club grounds.
The river was unusually high and
in driving along the dump built from
the public road to the club house, one
of the front wheels dropped suddenly
into waShout in the edge of the
road. Mr.. Bell was thrown precipi-
lately into the overflow, in water
eight or ten feet deep, his wife also
fell out OF the buggy but fortunately
landed in water not more than waist
deep, Her presence of mind prompted
her to protect herself against the
buggy which was upturned and about
to fall uron her Mr.. Bell had in the
meantime struggled to terra-firma
and come to the rescue of hls wife.
His horse had remained perfectly
quiet and had never seemed to take
the least fright at the beaver-like
maneuvers of his master.
After Mr.. and Mrs. Bell had gotten
lack into their buggy and each observ-
ed the others somewhat dampened
garments, they both enjoyed a vocif-
er0uS laugh at what came near be-
ing serious catastrophe. Had the
buggy fallen upon Mrs. Bell she would
no doubt have been pushed of into
the deep water and possibly both of
them been drowned.

Next, | see that great Senator OF
the United States, l.. Q. @. Lamar,
the statesman, the great paciticator,
who, when blood was still hot and
hate still raging. use in bis place in
the National Congress and delivered
an earnest and sincere eulogy of
Charles Sumner. The lofty strain Of
this tribute. the sincerity Of his pa
triotism, the unbounded love of coun.
try, and the honest 'eSire for peace
and reconciliation, struck the heart
strings OF the greater souls Of the
North and South, ard planted the
germ of fraternity which soon fruited
out ia the aboliShment of that great
black horror-the era OF reconstutc-
tion. He died after having served his
country in national cabinet, and
while still a Justice of tie Supreme
Court of the United States.
/ see, too, that great constitutional
lawyer, James z. George, who, when
his State and section had grown sick
at heart from the fraud, violence and
bloOGshed fOf vital but ncceSSitous
struggle for white supremacy and the
ascendency Of honor and virtue, with
his hand wrote into the constitution
of Mississippi provision which ele-
waited the standards of suffrage by
educational qualifications, and at one
stroke, swept away from the polls a
mass and an overwhelming array OF
black ignorance. A great constitu-
tional scheme, which stood the test
in the Supreme Court Of the United
States and has served as 4 model for
sister commonwealth.

statesman, Edward Carey Walthall

II Is outside of its province. Il Is a

take place. A satisfactory adjust
ment between the property owners
is, apparently, out OF the question,
They cannot agree. and, therefore,
why not let the incident close until
the county officials get busy and do
their dutyY We know Il is dell
cate question. and one that has TO
