was in sending them to New Mexico. We ought to have kept them here, and you know what we ought to have done to them"
 Tt was merely a question of our acting before they did"
 They had a meeting the night be- for the 12th and they voted to close up all the mines the next day, even if they had to blow them up. If we had not have sent them they would have run us out"
 -Bisbee is the most orderly and well behaved place l have even been in since July 18th. Why should they send troops in here to keep order? We have order and we expect to have it."
 1t is the most beautiful thing have ever seen. It has united the entire camp. We are like one big family. It has removed the social and relig- ious bars. The rich and poor, the so- ciety people and the laboring people are absolutely united. We mingle to- gether as never before We feel that our interests are one"
 "The atmosphere of Bisbee is pure and clean. It smells good It even cleaned out most of the social evil. Va found scores of I. w. WIS hiding un- der beds and other places in the red light houses and we dragged them all out and shipped the whole business away"
 "It is not true that union men are being in any way interfered with un- less they are too noisy with their sym pathies for the l. W. W.
 Tt is not true that the families of the deported men are not being well cared for. A fund of s600OO has been raised by the citizens and is being spent very generously in caring for all the 250 families left behind. Miss Eth el Cummings, the county probation of ficer. has charge of this fund and the relief work Any one acquainted with Miss Cummings knows that no one will suffer if she can find them.
 Tt is not true that a good man car- not come back to Bisbee and go to work, even though he went out with the l. w. w. bunch All he has to do is to come before the committee and tell them that he wants to go to work and will not join the l. W. WIS. That committee is the fairest court that man ever came before.
 All of the above quotations are from working men. some with the Copper Queen and some with other employers. l could not find single person in Bis bee who was not enthusiastic over what was done and who believed that the kind of men put out should never be allowed to come back.
 It is possible that a few mistakes were made in the deportation. I was told that few Mexicans who were very ignorant on going with the under standing that they were to get 8 a day if they stayed with the I. w. W.'s. Many of these Mexicans have been per mitted to come back and go to work. We hope they have learned a lesson they will not forget
 do not know what NIT. Jones or Governor Campbell thinks about the situation. I feel that Governor Camp bell is doing the very best he can to uphold the dignity of the law and do the right thing by all concerned, as governor of the state.

PARIS, Aug. 1S.-For some time past. and especially in the last few months, news has come from around Bordeaux, Toulouse, Albi and liar bonne of a mysterious malady, eXcep- tionally dangerous, attacking horses imported into France by way of For deaux from Argentina.
 And now, in the last few days, comes news from the cavalry and artillery reserves in Brittany that the same in applicable disease" appears in horses brought from the United States ana Canada. It is grave, and all the re- sources of French science are working on It. Is it an epidemic Brittany is far from Bordeaux and Toulouse; how could an epidemic skip across without leaving traces in between? How could an epidemic have>a double origin, iR the Argentine and the United States and Canada? Is it poison? It would take very subtle poison, indeed, to pro duce its results.
 Here is a queer phenomenon. It is about a fifty-fifty chance, they say, for a given horse, once incorporated, to be killed in the great war and those which escape do not continue fighting indefi- nitely. There is a continual movement of horses from the armies to the rear Animals without a scratch are pro nounced unfit. Turned out to graze in the high meadows of Savoy and Dauph- iny in the beautiful south of France, far from wars alarms. they are given a chance to slowly come back from the strangest of all war maladies- horse neurasthenia" or tangled nerves,
 A Wasting Sadness
 From the beginning of the war in France, war sickness has been the chief malady of horses. No wound. no breakdown from over exertion, no visi- ble physiological i'll. French officers call it ''neurasthenia" in their nervous bloOded stock; but all horses seem capable of going down with it equally, the stolid farm critter from Iowa and Kansas and will bronchos from Texas and the Argentine. It is a kind of spleen" or lethargy, or wasting sad ness. analogous to the "vapors" or the moons of delicately strung ladies when they are not enjoying 8 good time.
 The horse used 10 enjoy good times in war. Say, back in the Napoleonic epoch he delighted in the pomp and jingle of it, glittering harness. color. music, the cavalcsdes in mass, and. aye. the reckless charge of glory? But this smashing and crashing in dust

MATHEWS VISITS LOCAL ELKs

Hon. A. Grant Mathews, of Mem
phis, district deputy grand exalted
ruler Of the Elks lodge Of West Ten
nessee, paid an official visitation to
the local lodge here on Thursday
night of last week.
Mr.. Mathews has made several Wis
its to this city, mostly in connection
with matters concerning different
lodges, and is always given cordial
welcome not only by fraternity men,
but by his many other friends in this
community. He is an eloquent and
happy speaker, and the announcement
that he is to make speech or deliver
an address in this community always
attracts large and appreciatives au-
dience. However, he came here with
out notice Thursday night, hence not
many of the Elk brethren knew of his
coming. Otherwise he would have
been greeted by a much larger assem-
blage of the fraternity. However,
those who did have the pleasure of
hearing him were, as usual, highly
pleased with his remarks.
He spoke on the good Of the order
and also made his official inspection.
He took occasion, as he did when he
was here in December last to deliver
the memorial address, to compliment
the lodge greatly on it's work and its
personnel. Mr.. Mathews returned to
Memphis the same night.

SOUVENIR FROM OLD ENGLAND

Mr.. w. H. Paine received last Fri
day, a very handsome souvenir from
his former home at Sittingbourne in
county Kent, England, near London.
1t is a beautiful white marble cross
with octagon pedestal. This hand
some piece of work was done by Mr..
Paine's uncle, Mr.. William Wood, Of
the above named place, brother Of
his mothers, Mrs. Ebenezer Paine, Of
respected memory.
Mr.. Wood is now about so years of
age and did this work at the age of rs.
He was settled man when Mr.. Paine
left old England's shores to cast his
fortunes on this side of the Atlantic
and the uncle and nephew have kept
in touch with each other all these
forty and more years.
The handsome cross was sent as
an appreciation of remembrances
sent back to England during these
years by Mr.. Paine. 1t shows the
maker to be a sculptor Of no mean
ability and had he turned his attention
in that direction would likely have
made a name for himself.

CLOSING. EXERCISES OF

Brighton, Tenn, Mar. "a, 1917
March 18th, the night set for the
closing exercises Of the Robson High
School, was so rainy, that the exer-
cises were postponed until the follow
ing Tuesday evening. Rain, again,
Tuesday afternoon, doubtless kept
many away, nevertheless the auditor
ium was comfortably filed and a
large number Of people witnessed the
closing exercises.
The program was, varied enough to
be highly interesting throughout, and,
each performer did his partereditably.
The primary pupils gave sFom
Thumb Wedding" which was an ex-
cellent imitation Of a real marriage.
They had ushers, guests, flower girls
and brides maids and all. Henry
Bryson Mccain, in his full evening
costume made a nice looking groom,
and Maggie Hamrick in her pretty
white dress and veil was sweet little
bride, Leon Bond, also in evening
costume served as the officiating min
lister.
Miss jamie Moffatt deserves credit
for the beautiful decorations for the
marriage altar and for training the
little performers in their parts.
The intermediate grades gave a
Negro Minstrel which afforded the
audience something to laugh over and
enjoy. The boys and girls of these
grades were so completely disguised
with shining black faces and bright
red lips, that one could scarcely be
distinguished from another They
sang so Justify, and gave their jokes
so unconcernedly and ate peanuts so
heartily, that they convinced the audi
ence of their Southern breeding and
acquaintance with the customs of our
black brothers.
Miss Anna Lee Faulkner super
vised their training and she has the
satisfaction of realizing that they did
their parts well.
The advanced pupils gave a play.

play with an interesting plot and each
performer seemed fitted to his part,
so well did they impersonate the char
acters of the play. Goldie Wex, the
green boy from the farm enlivened
the play. With his country feet in
city shoes and Misery as a result, it
is no wonder, that at the close Of al
most every speech of his, he exclaimed
