perhaps for cellarette purposes in his own home
with the privilege OF serving few fingers thereof to

it in that way without incurring the dspeasure OF

An Appreciation of Mrs. Pike

IL was with great sorrow that We
learned OF the death OF Mrs. ,. l.
Pike. She had been trusted en-
ployee at the Confederate Home
a year or more and by her gentle
and womanly qualities had won the
love and esteem OF the inmates
here. BY her devotion in the dis
charge OF her duties she was held
in much esteem by all. She was
the special nurse and companion
OF Grandma Pride, 81 years old, the
oldest inmate OF the Home. There
was 4 strong attachment between
them. She also had other invalids
that she nursed with great care and
tenderness. We will miss her great
" for her lie is ended and her weary
body has has been laid 10 rest in
the bosom OF the Hallowed south
land she loved so well. Let us hope
and believe that her freed spirit,
leaving earth's frail tenement, has
peacefully crossed that mystic river
through deaths portals and has
found sweet and abiding rest and
rich reward in that haven on the
other shore, and in the language
of Lord Lytton an English poet:
There is no death, the stars go
down
To rise upon some fairer shore
And bright in Heavens jewelled
crown
They shine forever more"

A SENATOR FOR FIVE DAYS.

TIRED MULKEY Of Oregon will be proud man
L all the days OF his ie-al the days that follow
the five days he will sit in the United States
senate Mr.. Mulkcy was elected last month to serve
ont the unexpred term OF the late Dr. Harry Lane
of Portland, but it appears that there agree
mcnt with the governor that Mulkey was TO resign
after serving five days that former Senator Nc
Nary, elected to the full term might be appointed
to succeed the fivc-day senator.
A friend OF ours in Ardmore when he read about
Fred Mulkey yesterday, said he was rather busy,
but he would like sit in the United States senate
for five days and he believed that by straning
point he might spare the time for the sacrifice lie
regarded the proposition thus:
Knowing that l had but five days in the midst
OF the seats OF the mighty and that | should return
to private life unwept unhonored and unsung, |
should be bold to do and dare during those five days
For one Ting / should embrace the opportunity to
tell Reed Smoot Of Utah, Boies Pcnrose OF Pennsyl-
vania. Jim Reed Of Missouri Frank Brandegee OF
Connecticut, Larry Sherman Of Illinois and a few
other fellows in the senate how much | don't like
their obstrucionist reactionary methods-and
tell it to their faces with the dignity OF the senate
as my protection.
We leave the proposition with our friend trust
ing that Fred Mulkey may represent him properly by
being bold knight in his brief strut enwrappcd with
the toga Of senatorial authority.
