THE FOX HUNT.
Recollections Of an Experience In
Alabama.

Alabama.
OF course you've read the "Foxhunt"
in Georgia Scenes" Methinks many
foxhunts might be written UPPER
haps less graphically than by Long
street, but equally true, interesting and
characteristic.
The writer once had an experience
only one. He will never have an
other-not Of the same kind.
Time: Christmas eve, 1891; Place:
Snow Hill, Ala; Circumstances:
The writer was one Of a crew Of
eight or ten men in the employ of a
big stove company. We were stop
ping with Mr.. Albrittan, an extreme
ly pleasant gentleman. He was more
ever an enthusiastic lover of the chase
"a fox hunter. He kept number Of
foxhounds-kept them out among his
neighbors. Mr.. Albrittan kindly CD
invited us to join him in foxhunt. We
objected that we had no swift horses.
No matter, we had splendid mules.
We had no saddles. Mr.. Albrittan
would send out and borrow saddles for
us, What was the programme? The
order was to be ready to start prompt
" at the hour of midnight. In COM
memoration of the coming event, and
in anticipation of the deadly miasma
that. at the weird hour of midnight
envelopes the land like a poisonous
fog and creeps into the marrow OF the
bones, some one had, in some mysteri-
GUS manner, procured a jug-not the
little brown Jug, but a big brown
lug more suited to the needs OF the
occasion and the number Of the party.
No one was allowed to retire, much
less to sleep. Promptly at the hour OF
midnight everyone mounted, and led
by Mr.. Albrittan, Ga good rider and
well mounted), we set off at a swift
trOt.
And | wish to mention popularity
with reference to foxes: You never
find a fox near home. He is always
away off somewhere else. Distance
lends enchantment to the view" So
il was i'm this case. We set out in a
northerly direction toward Selma. We
were told that it was fifteen miles to
where the foxes were to be found
where they were thick and plentiful.
The writer was mounted on one of the
longest, tallest mules you ever saw.
AS we were sweeping along like Ney's
cavalry at Waterloo (or rather like
lynching mob), the writer experienced
a peculiar accident. One of the stir
rups became suddenly detached and
flew in the direction of the overhead
stars. 1t was never heard to fall and
as it was never found 1t may be go
ing up yet No time to stoI-nothing

MEN ACT LIKE SHEEP.
II Is Easy to Stampede a Crowd In
tho City.

Il Is Easy to Stampede a Crowd In
tho City.
It has been said that people are
like sheep-one leads, the others fol-
low. A man undertook to prove this
to a friend recently and the result
was quite .satisfactory-at least in so
far as 1t proved the mans point.
The man in question was approach
ing an elevated station on the west
side with friend. They were walk
ing leisurely, chatting and smoking.
At the entrance to the station they
stopped, looked and listened, but
there was no train in sight, and 1t was
at this juncture that the particular
individual in question conceived his
brilliant scheme.
Remarkable thing" he observed
to his friend, "how people will take
things for granted. All they need is
leader who knows, or apparently
knows, where he is going, and they
will follow blindly like so many sheep
Look at that bunch in there waiting
for a train, for instance. They are
taking it easy in the station, knowing
that when the train approaches,
whether they hear the rumble or not
bell will ring in time to let them
reach the platform and catch 1t.
I'm Just one minute 1 can change
the plans of every man and woman
there Watch me make 'em follow
me-"
Saying which, he backed off to
suitable distance and, calling upon
his friend to follow, he dashed madly
for the door. The second man was at
his heels. Together they burst
through the second door, plunged
across the room and to the stairway,
which they mounted three steps at
a time.
For one moment the others in the
station were dazed. Then 1t dawned
upon them. Great Scott! The train
was nearly there and there was some
thing wrong with the bell. There was
a simultaneous movement and then a
wild scurry for the stairs. Skirts
swished about feminine ankles and
money ratified In masculine pockets.
Up the stairs they tore and staggered
out on the platform, to tnd-two men
calmly smoking their cigars and
watching with apparent interest the
antics of a couple OF dogs in a vacant
lot below. There was no train in the
station and there was no train In
sight.
Had they been "stung?" They
were not sure, but 1t looked like 1t.
Angry looks were cast upon duplt-
cate personifcation of wide-eyed in
nOcence, which turned as the rush or
passengers poured over the stop step.
But there was no proof. 1t was all
circumstantial evidence. Finally one
or two smiled and then they all
laughed.
The two men passed into the smok-
er when the train did come along and
sat down gravely. They were longing
to laugh. At last one said to the
other:
Sheep"
And his friend answered.:
Ba-a-a!"-Chicago News.

VALUE OF SILENCE.
Too Much Talking As the Cause OF
Failures.


Many of the failures In business
and professional, as well as socldi
life are due to injudicious talking. A
young man Of apparently very niou,
crate ability has recently astonisned
his fellow-workers by his noticeable
success in business. pure LUCK
has been called, but policy or natur-
al habit Of silence is the real cause:
In his first position he succeeded a
man of long experience and excellent
Judgment, a circumstance tnat llaue
his youth and inexperience consplcu-
ous by contrast. He made no apolo-
eies and asked little advice. He was
courteous to his superiors. consider
ate of his business interiors, but ap-
solutely deaf to all the gossip ana
responsible talk so prevalent Ill
every large business office.
He had held his position Tor
year; gossip had it that he had lall-
ed, for in that time he had not sus,
gested a single innovation or enlarged
his department in any way. But sool,
il became known that he had proposed
a change that would result in an an
nual saving of $4,000. Gradually his
step became firmer, his manner more
assured. and he no longer outstayea
the janitor at night. Slowly pus
surely he gained the confidence Oh
the general manager and the heads Oh
other departments. and it soon pc
came their habit to come to MIN lor
advice. At the end of five years Wheh
his former associates were wonder
ing If they could afford to get mar
ried he was admitted to membership
in the firm.
In every establishment where a
number of persons is employed there
Is always an undercurrent Of gossip.
dissatisfied stenographer talks ner
troubles over with a bookkeeper The
bookkeeper cOnfides to the telephone
operator that he expects to get an IN
crease in salary. The elevator boy
explains that he is goinng to leave
soon for a better job. These bits OF
news are exchanged until they pc
come common property.
The employer learning that the
stenographer is dissatisfied, tells her
that she may leave at her pleasure
The bookkeeper fails to get his IN
crease in salary and the elevator boy
does not get his new job" Especial
ly If you are dissatisfied should you
refrain from discussing your position.

LOW RATE FOR REUNION Iron Fountain Issues Handsome Booklet and Announces Rate
 of One Cent a Mile

One of the neatest booklets we have seen in some time has been issued by the passenger de- partment of the Iron Mountain giving a number of views of the the capital city, where the Confed- crate Re-Union Is to be held the 18th, 10th, 17th and 18th of May, together with a lot of valuable in- formation about the reunion plans hotel accommodations, etc, and some concise information about the resources of our great and growing state.
 Every indication points to this as the greatest Reunion ever held and every citizen should feel proud to have such gathering in their state.
 For this occasion the Iron Noun tain has named the lowest rate ev- CT made; namely, one cent per mile plus twenty five cents. You can go to Little Rock and return home each day during the Reunion for practically the cost of remaining in Little Rock over night, and their train schedules are being ar ranged to accomodate those who desire to do this.
 Time limit of tickets may be ex- tended to June II for return trip by presenting same to agent at Little Rock for extension, and the payment of a fee of fifty cents. Tickets for side trips to any point west of the Mississippi river will be sold at rate of one fare plus fifty cents for the round trip, with final return limit June 10. Side trip tickets will be on sale at Lit tie Rock only.
 The Iron Mountains handsome booklet extends cordial invitation to the people to come to Arkansas, and mentions few of her many re- sources. Several thousand of these books have been printed and given wide circulation in all parts of the country, and we feel confident that much benefit to the state will result therefrom.

STATEMENT FROM THE
 COUNTY DEPOSITORY
To the People of Independence

To the People of Independence County
 The undersigned County Depos- itory feels that the citizens and taxpayers of the county are entitled to know the facts about the Coun- ty Depository matter which was referred to in the report of the re- cent Grand Jury.
 Pursant to the act of 1907, Hon. A. J. Craig, county judge, advertis- ed for competitive bids for the county funds for a period of two years from February 1st, 1911. This bank submitted its bid, which was accepted by the County Court; and the required bond was given and approved by proper order of court. Thereupon, the court enter ed an order designating this bank as the County Depository, and di- rected that the Treasurer should deposit all funds in his hand in the Depository within ten days, and that the Collector of Taxes should turn over to the Treasurer all money collected by him within fif- teen days after collecting same, that 1t might be transferred to the Depository and begin drawing in- tereSt. These are the requirements of the law. The Treasurer has been observing and complying with these requirements, his ac- count, however, at no time exceed ing the sum of.$17,616.37, and now stands at about $10,000.00. The Collector of Taxes, however, has not compiled with the require ments, of the law or order of Court upon his part. The collections of this years taxes to date aggregate from the best information obtain able, approximately $100,000.00, no part of which has been deliver ed to this Depository, but is being kept elsewhere by the Collector. This amount, of course, IS not drawing interest, and the county IS the loser to that extent. We stand ready to pay the agreed rate of interest to the county up- on daily balances when same has been placed with us as required by law and the orders of court.
 The only motive we have in is- suing this statement IS that the public may know the true facts, and that the responsibility may be placed where 1t belongs.

OFFERS BIBLE EVIDENCE Opposes Woman Suffrage Because lie Claims it is Contrary to
 Teachings Ofthe Bible

MT. Editor.-I notice that recent issues of The Journal contained articles on woman's right to vote.
 am opposed to women voting because it is contrary to the teach ings of the Bible. Every person who teaches that women should vote, don't believe the Bible, is a blasphemer of the words of the Bible, and is an infdel, and should be sent to jail for heresy.
 All voters are equal. Women can't vote because they are not equal to men, for the Bible says the head of woman is man. q Cor 3-16.9 They are commanded to be obedient to their husbands. q Cor. 14-349 This shows that they are inferior to men, and not their equal, and to try to make them so would be to violate the scriptures.
 Women can't vote because the Bible commands them not to speak in public. The Bible says let women keep silent in churches for 1t Is not permitted unto them to speak in churches, and if they would learn anything let them ask their husbands, at home, for 1t Is a shame for a woman to speak in church or in public. q Cor II: B. 35.1 And the Bible also says let the women dress in plain dresses, and with shamed faces, and not with braided hair, learn in quiet ness and subjeetion. q Tim. 2-9.9
 Now how could they vote with out speaking in public, and look shame-faced, as they are by the holy writ commanded to look? And besides they might want to vote contrary to their husbands teach ings. For instance, 1t has been suggested that she would vote against saloons. But her husband might want saloons, and this would be contrary to the scrip lures, because 1t is not obedience.
 Woman is not fit to vote because she is only a side issue to man, for according to the Bible, she was made out of rib taken from mans side. Gen. 2:223 There fore she IS only a side issue of man and not his equal, and the bible never intended that she should rule over man with her vote, or any other way.
 Woman is not fit to vote because she was intended as a servant to man, and not his equal, for the bible says And thy desires shall be to thy husband and he shall rule over thee" Gen. 3;169 Suf- fer not a woman to uSurp over

SAYS SYSTEM UNJUST
Unrest Among People Calls For Change---Ask Aid of Women
 to Purify Politics

Editor Newark Journal. In re- ference to A Readers article in which he attempts to answer Vot- CT in regard to Woman Suffrage, he agrees with Voter as to there being another side to the question but if there is he utterly fails to bring it out.
 He begins by repeating what he terms the "old story" good woman is the greatest of all Gods creation" and asks is such the case since women have begun to usurp the places of men in business af- fairs.
 For the information of Mr. A Reader, would say that no wom- an takes a mans place in any call ing or occupation unless it is for a livelihood, and for those circum- stances she is not to blame.
 None will deny that our women are holding positions that were formerly held by men, and if they do so in preference to starving l do not blame them for 1t. But why should they be driven to compete with men in all the occupations?
 If the God-given mission of woman is to bear and rear child ren, then the God-given mission of man is to support the woman, and this they are not all doing, and cannot do, under our present sys- tenn of government. It Is for this reason that woman should be giv- en the ballot with man. She must work with him; she must bear his children; she must allow him to formulate a set of morals for her to live by; while he himself ob- serves quite a different standard of morals.
 If she has property she must pay taxes to help support the system that keeps asking for more money each year to meet the expenses of feeding the fat purses of a lot of useless officers, who were put into their positions on the supposed principle that taxation without representation is tyrany.
 A great battle for right has been lost in Arkansas; but the war has just begun, and many men are falling into the ranks and the emancipation of woman IS only matter of time. Men are no long, CT admitting that their wives, mothers and sisters are not worthy the privilege accorded the meanest drunkard or vilest negro in the state.
 This is indeed an age of prog
