 MANY LIVES LOST

woman's nngrls are covered with costly rings and around her neck is a valuable string of pearls.
 The woman was in evening dress and had evidently hastily thrown 1 fur coat over her dinner gown when she got into the life boat. This leads to the belief that the yacht of som2 rich man must have been wrecked. The child is evidently the daughter Of th,. woman and if the men who were in thc boat were not sailors on the yacht there seems no way to account for the womans presence with them It is strange, however, that neither on the boat or on the jerseys of the sail- ors is any name which would indicate where the party came from.
 There seems to be nothing by which the woman and child can be identified and the whole circumstances IS shrnudcd in mystery. except the very real fact that the party must have suffered terribly from the cold and exposure in the open boat before they were relieved by death.

tree that bears them, and man will sit
down at table covered with good ami
abundant food and never think of him
who sent the rain to nourish and keep
alive the earth that produces it, ! have
known few people who were so un-
grateful as to smite the hand that had
fed them. One-half of the world is so
selfish that they have but little idea of
the pleasures, Joys and the comforts that
are within our reach. Who desires the
companionship of a supremely selfish
man and one who lives in bitterness and
strife-everyboay doing wrong except
himself? | have about as much patience
with such a character as this as / have
with theosophst who is always talking
his system of philosophy which processes

powers of man over nature, and the direct
knowledge of God. But of all men to be
Stunned is the tyrant the slanderer and

BIC LAND DEAL PUT
THROUGH IN DALLAS
2500 Acres Sold For COIOni-
cation PurpOses-S30,000
Consideration

Selma, April So.-(speeia1)-A deal was
closed here Tuesday afternoon late. whom
E. NJ. Elliott of Moundsville. Tuscaloosa
county purchased from J. F. Hooper a
tract of land containing 25o9 acres. The
consideration is mentioned as being sao.-
600.
The tract of land is located about four
miles east of Selma and is known as the
Bat Smith place. Several years ago Mr.
Hooper purchased the tract of land for
about $1,000
The tract of land was purchased by
Mr.. Elliott for colonization purposes and
he proposed to cut It up into 40 acre
farms upon which he will settle white
farmers from the northwest. Within the
next six months he expects to locate
several families from the west who will
make their future homes in Dallas coun-
ty.
During the past year quite number
of large tracts of land in Dallas county
have been purchased for colonization
purposes. These different tracts of land
have been divided into small farms and
are rapidly being settled by thrifty white
farmers from the west and northwest
who are seeking homes in the south.
