why seek We the living among the
dead? He is not here. but is risen.
The bishop spoke on the joy and tri-
umph and victory that now predominates
on Easter I'm contrast to the first Easter
morning 1900 years ago.
ITO try to cling to the moral teachings
of Christ and yet deny His resurrection,
is really seeking the living among the
dead" said the bishop 1T is but a
dreary carieature of the religion OF
Christ. Easter has it's warnings as well
as Lent. To have an intellectual grasp
OF the truth Of the resurrection is not
enough: we must believe 1t with the
heart; we must submit to its moral pow
CT. If we are true believers in the rise OF
Christ. we must rise with Him, rise to
better lives. rise to higher, nobler aims.

Former Assistant Secretary Of the
Treasury Charles Sumner Hamlin, writ

respect to the election of Mr.. Foss:
"The overturn Of the Fourteenth Con-
gressional district was nothing less than
a political revolution, but as matters ap-
pear now, our Republican friends will
look upon it as comparatively pleasing
incident when they view the ruin and de-
struction which. I believe, will overtske
the party In the elections IN this State

WIRELESS TRIUMPH

The efficacy of the wireless was ne
yer better demonstrated than when
the Selja was rammed on November
26th, says the S. F. Call. Wireless
Operator w. w. Broaddue sent out the
IS. o. s." signal within five minutes
after the ships struck. He received
immediate answers from the stations
at the Farallones, Hillcrest and Mare
island as well as from the warship
West Virginia lying in the harbor.
A few minutes later the liner Nip
pom Maru, lying an anchor just out
side the Golden Gate, got the call and
notified the Beaver it would come if
needed The revenue cutter McCul-
loch also cut in and notified the Bea-
yer it was on the way to aid The
McCulloch was 10 miles north of the
Golden Gate, and headed for Port
land The Beaver notified the Nc
Culloch to stand by in case Captain
Kidson decided to remain out all
night Later the Beaver notified the
McCulloch' to proceed, as the steamer
was coming into port under it's own
steam. Another ship, giving the code
name PA, inquired as to the loca-
ton of the wreck, so as not to run
into it if still floating. The stranger
was told that the Selja had gone
down, and, with "Thank you," pro-
ceeded on it's way. Wireless Operator
]. j. Woods on the steamer Bear, a
sister ship of the Beaver, got the call
on board the Bear at pier 40, and re-
ported the wreck to his company a
few minutes after it happened.

Mr.. Spillman, the Alfalfa Expert in
Noxubee.

On Monday at noon Mr., w. J. Spill
man, chief of the Plant Bureau in the
Agricultural department at Washington
and the most noted authority in the
country on alfalfa, arrived at Macon.
He was met by Mr.. Chas. c.. Clay,
who after luncheon took him, with Mr..
NJ. A. Crosby, also of the department,
Mr.. N. H. Harrison and Mr.. Henry Mi
nor through the alfalfa section of
Northeast Noxubee.
The alfalfa fields there are beautiful
sights, green, where all else is russell
brown, reminding one of the lines in the
old hymn
Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood
Stand dressed in living green
Mr.. Spillman has heretofore ex-
pressed himself about parts of the prai-
RE section of Alabama and Mississippi,
saying it was a natural alfalfa land.
This was his first visit to Noxubce. He
vas much impressed with the alfalfa,
saying it was as thrifty and healthy as
possible and showed that our land was
finely adapted to its growth. He said
that when the boil weevil reached Nox-
ubee as it would in two or three years
time our alfalfa and stock industry
would prove our salvation. He has just
lately passed through the country
where the boll-weevil is and nothing
could be more desolate.
Mr.. Spillman is a gentleman of most
pleasing address and a finished scholar
in his line. He was porn and raised on
a farm and has spent all of his later
studying plant life, its development and
it's enemies. He says hat in a short
time his department will have perfected
a method of curing alfalfa hay that it
may be cut in the rain and cured almost
immediately.
