INFINITE distance to place and moment
Between the curtains . white butter

she heard the sound of some winged

INSIST ON METCALF
 FOR POSTMASTERSHIP

Washington, March 6.-FolloWing the announcement of the president that he will name Lea M. Douglas, of Nashville, as district attorney for Middle Tennessee. and the statement by Senator Shields today that he will recommend J. R. Thompson, of Spring City, for marshal for East Tennessee, it is announced that the administra- tion will insist that the Tennessee senators permit the confirmation of Chas, w. Metcalf, Jr., for postmaster at Memphis. The name of Metcalf IS still hanging in the senate without being acted upon.
 Since the senators are daily con- ferring and settling patronage mat ters in Tennessee, it has become known that the postmaster general and the president will insist upon Representative Mcclellan naming the postmaster at Memphis if the prerog- atiyes of the senators in deciding sen atorial patronage matters are to pc upheld. It is confidently believed that Mir. Metcalf is nearer the goal no" than ever before.

ARBOR DAY AGAIN.

 In the hurry and hustle of the pres ent day American life it is but human that we sometimes forget those events which should mean much to us, and that we are more than prone to con- slider such occasion to be remembered of the past and not be observed.
 Arbor Day has dual purpose. one that we add to our treasure of nat ural beauty and another that we may render a good account of ourselves to the future generations. The young are always enthusiastic and in their keeping largely IS thls occasion. The school children of the land have taken a pride in contribut- ing their part in work on this day and at the present time there is ample evidence that what they have done i'll the past years is beginning to snow I

 Every encroaching demands for utll- ities has caused severe dram on our natural resources and Arbor Day is in a sense of the word klho oi conservation. Again, the planting o' trees, flowers and shrubbery creates taste for the beautiful, for nature al her best and such is an incentive to-
 ward higher lives with the young' II after years.
 It is to be hoped that the day VII

LITTLE LAUGHS
 (By PRUNNY.)

So It Is.
 The manager of well known con- cern has very charming stenogra- pher in his employ, who had recent ly acquired the habit of coming in from thirty minutes to one hour late ~per morning.. To his great surprise yesterday morning, upon his arrival at his office, he found her to be only twenty-five minutes late-And to her own surprise found herself to be the first one there. Seeing her pulling off her wraps in "a-half-sleep' manner and betting a little finger, which she mashed one day, by letting a large amount of letters pile up when late, the manager looked at the clock and said:
 tWell, well, Miss---; l see you are early of late; you used to be behind before, it gives me great pleasure, indeed, to see that your are now first at last"
