REAL AND NEAR
BY FRED c. KELLY.

WASHINGTON, June 3.-Vice Pres.
Marshall has a habit of telling a
funny story at the eleventh hour. In
fact. he usually waits until the eleven
tn hour and about % minutes.
The consequence is that when he
enters the senate chamber To convene
that body of solemn toilers. he is apt
to have a half-suppressed little smile
on the face and the Rev. Forest J.
Prettyman. the senate chaplain. has
even more difficulty in maintaining
the serious countenance of man
about 10 lead in prayer.
Here is the way the thing works
out. Along about 1870 Marshall
shifts from his office in the senate
office building 10 his room in the
capitol He lights a cigar and smokes
as he receives any callers that drop
in. 4 few minutes before the noon
hour the callers thin out. and the
chaplain comes To be in readiness to
accompany the vice president into
the chamber Now, for some unac-
cOuntable reason. the presence Of the
chaplain makes Marshall think of a
funny story At about five minutes
prior TO the hour of opening the sen
ate he starts TO tell this story with
calm elaboration.
The golden moments speed on their
way. and by the time Marshall has
the basic part of his story outlined 1t
lacEs only two minutes or less until

The death angel has again
visited our little city, on the
night Of January 10th, and re-
moved from our midst our neigh
Dor and friend W. B. Mcdowell.
While he had been in failing
health for several Yeas, the i'm
mediate cause OF his death was
the result Of a fall on the street
a few days before he died. He
was nearly Y years old and had
spent most Of his life in and
near Okolona where he had many
friends. He was a man that
kept we'll read up on the events
Iof the day, a man of decided
convictions on all subjects per-
tanning to the welfare Of his
country and always able to give
a reason for the faith that was
in him. He was entertaining
and companionable in any com
pany, possessing q large fund of
anecdotes which, with his fine
flow Of Irish wit, makes him
gifted in the telling Of them,
He was an eX-confederate sol
der and followed the flag of the
Sunny SolUn with a devotion
and loyalty that made him not
ed for his bravry on the hattie
field. He was badly wounded in
the great battle OF Gettysburg
from which he never sufficiently
recovered TO do field duty again,
though he did q great work in
caring Tor the sick ana wounded
until the close Of the war.
His was buried from the Grace
episcopal church, the beautiful
