I'm SWEET FRAGRANCE
MOURNERS LAID FLOWERS ON
TOMB OF CONVICT.
But in Life the Man Who Had Trans.
gressed and Paid the Penalty
Went His Lonely Way
Without Sympathy.

HE tramped his way into this count
try and finally into this neighborhood.
You know his history since he has
been here. He has never been able
to keep a place and, so far as l can
learn, has never had a complaint
against him. 1 have heard many Of
you talk about him in the last "a
hours, and this is what you make him
out: faithful, capable workman;
Industrious, honest, reliable in all
things, gentle to women and little
children, kind to dumb animals, untir-
ing in self-sacrifice for the sick and
helpless. In addition, know him to
have been God-fearing, repentant
man.
'It was not much he asked of this
community-only the right to live by
honest, hard work, and little-a very
little-human companionship. We de-
MED him both! We saw a Struggling
soul go down in dumb agony and we
did not lift a hand to save him. A
friendly greeting, hearty handshake,
a word of neighborly interest would
have been to this man as cold water
In thirsty land. But We did not give
them. He asked us for bread and we
gave him stone.
81 asked if he was afraid to die.
No, he said, he did not believe God
would be as hard on him as his fellow
men had been. l think he was right.
He said: IF there had only been
somebody that l could have told 1t
would have been different; but there
was no man that would know me;
refuge failed me; no man cared for
my SOUL Oh, brethren, brethren, may
God forgive u.s."
The old minister had been speaking
in an impassioned tone. He stopped
suddenly. Then, there being nothing
more to say, he raised his hands in
benediction, repeating with gentle en-
phasis which might have passed for
irony but probably was only force of
habit:
''And now may the peace of God,
that passeth all understanding, keep
your hearts and minds, through Jesus
Christ, our Lord Amen"
Ma Liza had been playing beside
the grave, sticking her alder bush into
the soft mold and pulling it out again
to find a better place. AS she felt
the tug Of her mothers hand she
stuck it in firmly and said, her sweet,
childish treble shifting the stiffness:
81 give my towers to Zebbie!"
Mrs. Freno caught her to her
breast with sob, and laid her branch
beside it. The act was infectious. rs
by one impulse the women came and
cast their flowers upon the mound
with gentle hands and falling tears.
And when the procession moved from
the cemetery Zeb Horns grave was a
mass of snowy, fragrant blossoms.

OiI-Burninu Enoines,

DR.. Rudolph Diesel of Munich lee
tured at the Institute Of Mechanical
Engineers in London recently, on the
industrial Importance of the Diesel
oil engine of which he is the inventor.
He declared that by this engine the
monopoly of coal had been broken and
that the problem of using liquid fuel
for power production in it's simplest
and most general form had been solv-
ed. 1t could be used with all natural
liquid fuels. What the steam engine
and gas engine were for coal it was
for liquid, but was much simpler and
more economical. Researches, he
added, had shown that there was prob
ably as much liquid fuel as coal in
the globe. New petroleum sources,
said DR.. Diesel, were continually be-
ing developed; new oil districts were
being discovered. The worlds pro-
duction of crude oil had increased
three and half times as quickly as
the production of coal and the ratio
of increase was getting steadily high.
er. Forty per cent of the present pro-
duction Of mineral oil, he added, was
already sufficient to supply the whole
naval and mercantile feet of the
world with power if they worked it
by the Deisel engines.

MAJOR MOBLEY fLAYS

BRYAN
E1Iitor III Alexandria Democrat
SAYS tl,r Nfbraskan Is Still A
Firebrani Iii tlIe Party.

The Clarion has not always
agreed with the political views
of Major w. G. Mobley, the
veteran editor Of the Alexandra
Democrat.
He is irratic at times, but
everything which emanates from
his pen is generally couched with
the spirit of conscience and
heart.
The following dealing with the
presidential situation, is charac-
teristic of the man:
While the returns from the
primary eIecFion held in Ohio last
Tuesday, for the selection of
delegates to the national conven-
tons, are not complete, enough
is known to forecast the result
with precision, as those yet to be
received and promulgated, will
not change it materially, if at all.
Teddie Roosevelt has triumphed
over Taft. 4 large majority of
the delegates are Roosevelt parti-
sans. President Taft has been
discredited in his own State.
This will minimize, If it does not
actually destroy his chances,
which have never been good for
the Republican presidential noni-
patton. While it is no fight Of
ours we admit that our SYM
pathiss have been and are still
with the President.
While he is not aggressive by
nature. he IS safe, sane and con
sentative. # we are to have a

WhipporrwiH are somewhat later
but will produce good hay and
sometimes peas even when sown
as late as August. The velvet
bean is another crop that makes
good hay and does not need To-
be planted early for this purpose.
Both of these crops win do very
well on sandy ridges which occur
frequently after the water re-
cedes. Sweet potato plants can
be set out in June and July and
fall Irish potatoes usually make
a very good crop. Fall gardens
can be made in September which
will supply the home with plenty
vegetables. There are a few
varieties of corn which can be
planted very late, among them
being the Dwarf Mexican June.
This is a slightly soft corn, but
will withstand the attacks Of
the weevils fairly well and gem
orally produces a good yield. It
is perhaps one of the best late
varieties of corn to plant. Pea
nuts is still another crop that
be used, but ought to be
planted by June Is to make a

fore the country bigger and

That he has failed to overthrow
Governor Harmon in his malevo-

that the Ohio executive Is politi-
