HE KNEW ONLY ONE JAMAICA
Possibly in His Civic Pride Man Could
Not Imagine the Possibility Of
Their Being Another.

A New York artist, who had just
returned from Jamaica, West Indies,
showed in his, studio some paintings
Of Jamaica scenery.
One day a man who had been stroll
ing through the studio stopped before
a certain picture and said: What Is
this?"
"a scene in Jamaica" said the art
list.
Jamaican" repeated the visitor.
That's strange. I don't remember
ever seeing anything like that in
Jamaica"
"You have been there thne?" asked
the artist.
81 live there"
Then surely you must be acquaint-
ed with this place. It Is a street
Gene in the principal town Of the
island"
The man from Jamaica looked at
the artist for a moment as II he
thought he must be daft. Then he
said:
81 live in Jamaica, and there isn't
a street in the town that bears the
slightest resemblance to that pic
ture."
The mention Of Jamaica IS a town
cleared away the mist.
Il see," said the artist, you live in
Jamaia, L. l."
Sure" said the other. us there
another Jamaica anywhere?"

GATHER AT LINCOLN'S STATUE
Children Seem to Recognize compan'
ion and Friend in Bronze Repre-
s%entation of President.

In the city of Newark, N. j., there
stands on the plaza in front OF the
courthouse q bronze statue or Abra'
ham Lincoln. The figure OF Lincoln
Is seated on a bench or which rests
the tall hat that the president was &C.
customcd to wear. Frequently you see
men standing there, looking at this
remarkable statue, and it seems as
If they were in confidential chat with
thth figure Of bronze, so natural Is Its

Every day the little children play
about the statue. To them 1t is the

in the arm Of the statue, or Chamber

after a pause, she came nearer and
leaned against the low wall beside
him.
IF l would speak from my heart"
she asked, IF l would talk plain, as
you Americans do, would you like me
better then? Would you talk to me
instead Of standing silent? Listen.
Bud-for that is your name-1 want
you to be my friend the way you were
a friend to Phil. l know what you did
for him, and how you bore with his
love-madness-and that was my fault,
too. But partly it was also your fault,
for you made me angry by not coming.
Eyes. l will be honest now-tt was
you that l wanted to know at first, but
you would not come, and now l am
promised to Phil. He was brave when
you were careful, and my heart vent
out to him. You know how it Is with
US MeXicans-we do not love by rea-
son. We love like children-suddenly
from the heart! And now all l wish
in life is to run away to Phil. But
every time l speak Of it you shut your
jaws or tell mel am a fool"
"Ump-um," protested Bud, turning
stubborn again. Il tell you you don't
know what you're talking about. These
rebels don't amount to nothing around
the town, but on a trail they're awful.
They shoot from behind rocks and all
that, and a woman amt noways safe.
You must know what they're like
these old women don't think about
nothing else-so what's the use Of talk
ing! And BESIDES" he added grimly.
I've had some trouble with your old
man and don't want to have any
more"
What trouble have you had?" she
demanded promptly, but Hooker would
not answer in words. He only
shrugged his shoulders and turned
away, crumpling his hat in his hand.

CHAPTER XIII.

There are two things, according to
the saying, which cannot be recalled
the sped arrow and the spoken word.
Whether spoken in anger or in Jest,
our winged thoughts will not come
back to us and, where there Is no balm
for the wound we have caused, there
is nothing to do but let it heal.
Bud Hooker was a mar Of few
words, and slow to speak i'll Of anyone.
hut some unfamiliar devil had loosened
his tongue and he had told the worst
about Phil. Certainly If a man were
the bravest of the brave, certainly If
he loved his girl more than life itself
he would not be content to hide
above the line and pour out his soul
on note-paper. But to tell it to the
girl-that was an objectionable sin!
Still, now that the damage was done,
there was no use of vain repining, and
after cursing himself intellectually
Bud turned in for the night. Other
days were coming; there were favors

terdays went by, Gracia would forgive
him for his plain speaking. Even to-
morrow, If the rebels came back for
more, he might square himself in &C
ton and prove that he vas not a cow
ard. A coward!
1t had been a long time since any
one had used that word to him, but
after the way he had knitted dear
Phil" he had to admit he was it. But
dear Phil" 1t was that which had
set him off.
If she knew how many other girls

particular line Of thought. AS long as
the world stood and Gracia was In his
sight he swore never to speak Ill OF
De Lancey again, and then he went to
sleep.

up in a house all the time-if you'd

six months you'd understand what

"If Phil were here, he'd take mel
countered Gracia, and then Bud lost
his head.
YES" he burst out, that's jest
what's the matter with the crazy fool!
That's jest why he's up across the line
now a hollering for me to save his
girl! He's brave, is he? Well. why
don't he come down, then, and save
you himself? Because he's afraid to!
He's afraid Of getting shot or going W
against Manuel del Rey. BY grab, II
makes me tired the way you people
talk! If he'd done what I told him tc

"Oh my!" exclaimed Gracia, aghast
why, what is the matter with you
And what did you tell him to do?"

ness" answered Hooker bluntly.
And what did he say"
"He said he'd try anything-once!"
Bud spat out the phrase v~indicively
for his blood was up and his heart was
full of bitterness.
"Oh DEAR" faltered Gracia. "AnC
SO you do not think that Phil is
brave?"

Bud, but not to carry EN- through

did not offer to stay her, for he saw
what his unkindness had done.

Greatest Soil Expert in the World
Gives Interesting Facts.-Other
Well Known Men Speak.


Florence.-There have been farm
ers' days and farmers days in Flor.
ence, but never in the history Of the
game city" has there even been a
real farmers day like Florence had
a few days ago.. 1t was the real
thing" carried out in the real way"
The result Is that some 1900 or 1900
farmers and their families who came
here to spend the day as the guests
of the Florence Chamber Of Com
merce left town feeling better, kinder
and more convinced than ever that
Florence city and Florence people
were not after the almighty dollar,
but after getting nearer and closer
to the real people of the farms and
rural districts.

Their Ellison, the genial, clever and
hustling secretary Of the Florence
Chamber of Commerce, Is the real

to do things as few others can not
do, and when he stammers or hesl-
tates he falls back on ex-President
John Reese McCown, the new pres
ident, Marion D. Lucas, Of the Cham
Der of Commerce, and William Il.
Barringer, mayor.
The coming together Of this great
number Of farmers from Florence
county, as we'll as from every nook
and corner Of this great Pee Dee
country, was a great treat and enjoy
ment to all of the people and more
especially to w. w. Long, state agent
of the United States department or
agriculture, cooperating with Clemson

director of the Clemson experimental
station at Florence; DR.. Cyril G. Hop
kins, the worlds greatest expert on
soil fertility; R. E. Curtin, superin-
tendent Of the Clemson experiment
station at Florence; Mayor W. R. Bar
ringer and the many others directly
interested.
The meeting was held in the county
court house, which was packed full
with farmers, business men and their
lady friends and others. In fact, the
auditorium was too small to hold the
crowd, as many had to be content
with standing about the doors and
windows on the outside.

haired Confederate veteran, William
Bollard, was found dead recently in a

authorities to have been the motive of
the assassination and the guilty party

Four negroes are held as suspects and
three of them, it is stated, are accused
