LOVES DEEP LIFE.
BY Miss Marie Nightingale.


LOVES DEEP LIFE.
Our love is not a fading, earthly flow
er,
It's winged seed dropped down from
Paradise
And nursed. by day and night. by sun
and shower.
Doth momently to fresher beauty
rise.
10 us the leafless autumn is not bare
Nor winters rafting boughs lack
lusty green.
Our summer hearts make summers
fullness, where
No Leaf, or bud, or blossom may be
seen:
For natures life in loves deep life
doth lie,
whose mystic key these calls of
Thou, and !
into the infinite freedom men Il
And makes the bodys dark and mar
row CRATE
The windflung leaves OF heaven s
palace gate. Lowell.

Maine RESULT
Still IN DOUBT
official Count Will Be Required to
Settle Wet and Dry.

Portland, Me-, Sept. 14.-So close
was the vote in Mondays special cleo
tion on the question of repeal of con-
stitutional prohibition that even to-
night when most of the first unofficial
returns had been revised by mali re-
ports from town clerks the result is in
doubt
An error discovered in the report
given officially by the clerk of the
town of Limestone contributed largely
to the uncertainty as to the outcome
of the election. In reporting the cleo
ton the clerk returned to the Asso-
ciated Press over his signature: For
repeal 12 against repeal 175, while to
the secretary of state he reported just
the reverse-for repeal IT'S; against
~.
Figures furnished by Secretary of
State Davis from Augusta at midnight
compiled from mail returns from all
but 13 cities and towns in the state
and with the missing 13 supplied from
press returns show an apparent ma
iority for repeal of 1856 votes.
OF the 13 towns figures supplied by
press reports, four were received by
mail from the clerks and nine are the
early figures which it has not since
been possible to verify. The figures of
the total vote furnished from the of
flee of the Secretary of State including
the 19 towns supplied to Mr.. Davis
from press returns are:
For repeal, 60,525; against repeal
60.370.
Between the Associated Press re-
turns as revised almost completely by
postal card reports from town and city
clerks and the figures of the secretary
of state, there is a marked discrep
ancy, the press returns indicating al
late hour tonight a majority of 34I
against repeal
The total vote as indicated by the
Associated Press returns:
For repeal, 6O,241. against repea
6O,5SS.

is A TURPENTINE
LEASE TAXABLE
Miss, Involves Large
interests.

Jackson, Miss, Sept. 14.-The ques-
ton of whether a lease to turpentine
rights in yellow pine timber tracts can
be regarded as separate property, and
will come up for decision before the
Supreme Court at the approaching
term.
This is the main point at issue in
series of suits that have been filed
by the state revenue agent, Writ
Adams, against the largest turpentine
distillers in South Mississippi, more
than dozen corporations being in
volved in the proceedings.
The revenue agent is represented by
Hon. R. P. Willing, of the Jackson
bar, who filed a request with the
board of supervisors of Harrison coun-
ty that the turpentine distillers be as
sessed for back taxes on their leases.
In answer. the turpentine operators
contend that 1t is unjust, inequitable
and illegal to assess timber land, and
then levy a special assessment on the
turpenine rights, and they have re-
/ tanned able counsel TO resist the pro
, ceedings.
In majority of instances the own
ers of timber lands have leased tur-
/ pentine rights to operators, paying the
usual taxes on their holdings. 1t is
the contention of the operators that
there is no more justice in assessing
the turpentine lease than there would
be in assessing tenant on the store
building. or other form of realty. that
he is renting from a landlord; that the
land owners are paying taxes on
fair assessment that represents not
only the value of the land, but the tim
Der proper and its by-products.
The suits selected for the Suprem
Court test are those against the VOL
River Company and the Union Navs
p Stores Company. More than doze
= other large corporations, and seyera
smaller concerns, are involved.

WEST FLOODED With
WORTHLESS PAPER
Old Mississippi Bank Notes Are Be-
Ing PaImed of on the In

Fort Smith, Ark, Sept. 14.-West-
ern Arkansas and Eastern Oklahoma
are being flooded with cancelled Mis-
sissippi State warrants redeemed Jan.
/, 1904, which have been passed of
as National bank bills by followers of
fairs, carnivals and picnics. There have
been six convictions in this city, two
of them today, and reports from other
points in the two states show an equal
ly extensive circulation of the WORTH
less paper. The police assert that they
have knowledge that another block Of
these cancelled warrants, face value
$25.0Oo, was recently consigned to
small Oklahoma towns near here for
distribution. Street car men, saloon
keepers and proprietors of resorts
have been the principal victims in the
cities, while farmers and small mer-
chants have been the sufferers in the
rural districts.

Jackson, Miss, Sept. 14.-The Mis-

in circulation in Arkansas and Okla
homa is probably some of the old State
warrants issued during Governor
Stones administration in the early 90's
to the amount of $500,0 600, in order
to avoid bond issue and which lead
to the technical arrest of Governor
Stone and State Treasurer J. J. Evans
by government agents on the charge
of issuing money similar to that OF
the United States. After their can
collation. the warrants were stored in
the old state capitol which was aban

Among the many improvements con-

will be made in the near future, is the
securing of a centrally located build

The office as now located is not
convenient to the business people of
the city and an uptown office will
make for the facilitating Of business
both for the company and its patrons,
and will be a great benefit to all par
ties concerned. 1t is the policy of the
new management to make such i'm
provements in every department of the

Abiding by instructions from the
Postoffice Department at Washington,
Postfaster Collins announces that the
Hattiesburg Postal Savings Bank will
be open for business tomorrow, the
18th. This was the day specified in
the original order authorizing the es-
tablishment of the bank, and to have
everything in readiness for opening
the depository an inspector has been
here several days giving instructions
and information governing the opera
ton of these banks. Both Mr.. Collins
and clerk Edwin Watkins, who will
have charge of the postal savings de-
partment, have thoroughly familiariz-
ed themselves with the rules and reg
ulations and are ready to give the
business the proper attention. Mr..
Collins has had previous experience
in banking work and this will be of
valuable assistance in inaugurating
the local Postal Savings Bank.
Prospective depositors or interested
parties can secure on application at
the Postoffice a phamphlet containing
detailed information as to the work
ings of the Postal banks and rules
governing the opening OF accounts
with the bank. No deposits will be ac
cepted for less than one dollar nor al
