ton to Welcome the Gray Army
To Florida in May.

Jacksonville, Fla.-Gov. Park Tram

plished chief executive, has given out
a letter for publication in the news
papers of the South, on the approach
ing reunion in this city, May 6, Z, 8, OF
the United Confederate Veterans AS
ISOLATION. He assures the Confed-
crate veterans and their friends that
they will be given generous welcome
in Jacksonville and at other points in
the state which they may visit during
their stay in Florida. The governors
letter is as follows:
The Governors Welcome.
at is simple truth to affirm that the
hearts of the people of Florida are
overlooking with qualification and
pride over the fact that the revered
heroes composing the United Confed-
crate Veterans will hold their annual
reunion this year in our states
metropolis.
THE grand old heroes of the Gray
will meet a magnificent, whole-souled
reception in Jacksonville and at any
other Florida points they may visit.

will be in an atmosphere thoroughly

highly apreciative of the honor Of hav.

Florida is rich in romance and ira
dition, and in the loyalty of her people
to high ideals and patriotic endeavors.
In proportion to population and re-
sources, Florida contributed as gen.
erously and as cheerfully in men and
in means to the support OF the Con
federate cause as did any of the other
great commonwealth which so nobly
championed that righteous struggle.
Florida gave many great names to the

brave men of the ranks who on count
Jess fields rendered valorous account
of their courage and patriotism. The
creditable part which the people of
this state took in support of Southern
defense is source of pride. to the sur
vivors of the great conflict and of
veneratiOn to the younger generation.
In every community from the Po-
tomac to the Gulf the Confederate vet
eran is always an honored and a well
come visitor and guest. No greater
tribute could be paid to the enduring
justice of the principles for which they
contended and for the magnificent
manner in which they sustained their
convictions through the four sternest
years of American history, than the
unanimous and enduring verdict of
commentator and appreciation which
has for half a century accorded the
glorious patriotism and chivalry of
the Confederate soldiers throughout
the length and breach of the South
land they so heroically defended. In
Florida the veterans will find the same
cordial respect and unbounded hospi-
tality which awaits them at all points
in the Southland.

ADO9-Face Calf.

One of the strangest and most remark
able freak births recorded in McCracken
county took place on the farm of Thatch-
er & Clark, at Almo. A Holstein COW
gave birth TO a calf-at least the animal
had the hide and body of calf. Its
head, on the other hand, is an exact rep
lica of a pug dogs face, whiskers and
all; the tail is as full blown a brush as
any squirrel ever sported, while the
front feet are the cleft supports of pig.
The entire carcass weighed only seven
pounds. The animal was born alive,
but did not pursue its destiny more than
two hours.

600 bushels of corn was consumed on the

crop was shipped TO the cities and part
of this returned TO the farm after being

mules consume the larger part of the
crop: Swine eat 26S per cent. cattle

A Mule of Peru,

This marvellous feat was related to a
lady travelling in Peru via trail and by
mule train, by the priest who claimed
to have owned the daring and resource
full animal he told about. In Peru many
of the trails are mere lodges cut out of
the solid rock, the precipices falling
away for hundreds of feet to the river
below on one side and arising equally
steep and straight on the other side.
This priest was journeying on his
mule over just such trail, when sud-
denly, TO his horror, on rounding bend
he saw that an avalanche had swept 20
feet of the trail completely away. The
trail was narrow; he could not turn and
he dared not dismount. Far below roar
ed the river, above reared hundreds of
feet Of sheer rock. Giving up for lost,
he took out his beads and began TO say
his prayers before going 10 meet his
Creator.
The mule in the meantime had been
viewing the situation intently. He
felt him move. then the animal reared
straight up on his h nd legs His mas
ter thought he was about 10 plunge over
the edge and chung to the horn of the
saddle thinking the end was near-but
no, slowly the mule turned on his hind
legs, turned until he was facing back
down the trail. Then he came down on
all four feet again and commenced the
return journey.
1t was wonderful display Of intelli-
gence and courage and one that is scarce
~ credible. but the priest vouched for
its truth, while others admitted that the
trail had been awept away and that the
mule had in come way brought his mas
ter safely back. Later. 10 the priests

reau explains that very frequently there
are times when this mixture is apparent
in the atmosphere, and il considers the
new word a great little idea.
Very well, ''smog" let it be. But why
end there? Let's call a mixture of snow
and mud "smud." A mixture of snow
