DIXIE"

The southern song d" Dixie has been
proclaimed as the greatesi in patriotic
popularity among American songs and
music The decision is by o. G. D..
Sonneck, chief Of the division Of music
of the library Of congress, who has Just
issued from the government presses a
volume giving an exhaustive report on
American national airs. Yankee
Doodle go 1econd place. a remark
able thing about "Dixie" is that il was
written by a native Of the North, Gen.
Albert Pike. He was born in Mas
sachusetis in 1909 and became teacher
In 1881 he visited the southwest with a
company Of trappers and afterwards
settled at Little Rock, where he edited a
paper and practiced law. He served
in the Mexican war and at the outbreak
OF the civil war enlisted with the
Confederstes. 1t was early in the war
that he wrote the lines published in the
Charleston Courtier in 1861. The song
Immediately became popular throughout
the South. There is some question as
to the origin of the air but the words
and music are said to have been inspired
by an old negro melody which was sung
by Daniel Emmett of Emmett & Bryan's
Ministries Just before the civil war.
Yankee Doodle" IS claimed by
several nations. The air, it is said
was popular in the south of France two
centuries ago, and the reapers Of Hol-
land sang ii as they worked. In the
reign of Charles in England, it was
sung by the cavaliers in derision Of
Cromwell, who had entered Oxford on
an exceedingly small horse. 1t first ap-
peard in America in l755, when Gen.
Braddock assembled the scolonists near
Albany to attack the French and Indians.
Dir. Richard Shuckburg, a wag and
musician with the English soldiers,
wrote out the music for the poorly
trained colonial musicians, ana turned
it over TO them as the latest martial
music from England The Joke proved
a poor one, for twenty-five years later
the air was played when the British
marched into the lines Of the colonists
to surrender.

The Woman with
The Foolish Tongue.

She's sometimes old--and sometimes
voting,
The woman with the foolish tongue;
The pratting voice, the ginting eye,
The things she's got to tell-or die
Who chatters with a vacant noise
Just listening to her own sweet voice,
Who corners you in some dim nook
And then runs on-just like "the
brook
In mournful numbers, be she sung,
The woman with the foolish tongue,
Who to her conversation clings,
Until you cry, Lord, give me wings
That somehow from her may fly,
For she will never say goodbye
She talks and talks, and talks all day,
With never anything to say.
She fancies She S a fascinator,
But just like some steam radiator
She buzzes on with tireless lung,
The woman with the foolish tongue.
Lord, grant that never such as she
May hunt me down and marry me
I'd be raving maniac,
With not a chance to answer back.
Lord pity him who weds when young
A woman with a foolish tongue

Senator Depew was asked by a re-
porter as he was having his luggage
examined last month if he had brought
any stories back from Europe.
The Senator laughed and replied:
'Well, in the smokeroom of the ship
I heard an interesting thing about a
Montanan in Chester. Chester, you
know, is walled. It's wide walls, on
which you could drive a horse, are IA
nous. You can circle the town on them.
But the Montanan knew nothing
about Chester. He had only arrived in
Liverpool that afternoon. AS soon as he
finished his quaint dinner he said to the
waiter in the quaint Chester inn:
What is the best way for me to
amuse myself here for an hour or two
before bedtime?'
We'll, sir said the waiter, it's a
fine evening, the moon is full, and I
think you'd find a stroll on the walls

''The Montanan, ignorant OF the popu-
lar promenade upon the wide walls of
Chester, thought he was being guyed.
He frowned at the waiter and said bit

ALARMING THE BRIDE.

A clergyman, noticing the simple ap-
pearance of the couple he had just mar
ried, decided to give them a few words
of advice.
He explained to the young man his
duties as husband, and then told the
young lady how she should conduct her
self, winding up with the old injunction
that she must look to her husband for
everything, and forsaking father and
mother, follow him wherever ne wentS
The bride appeared very much trou-
bled at this. and faltered out:
Must L follow him to every place he
goes?"

follow him everywhere until death doth
you part"
