Each friend seems to have been Impressed with a dif ferent trait, the ensemble making a beautifully-poised and rounded-out character. Her brilliant mentality, her energy and talents were conse crated early in life to Christian work principally work among young wo men. In 1900 jthe became one of the traveling student eecretarlea for the American committee of the Young Women's Christian Association, the field assigned her being the Southern colleges. The work grew rapidly under her magnetic influence and ac tivity. In 1 902 Miss Bridges be came the national secretary of the Young Women's Christian Associa tion, in 1 905 she laid down her work as secretary and became "The Pas tor's Wit a," her marriage to Mr. At kinson taking place in December of that year. In the first week of Janu ary, 1 90S. she entered her new home, the manse In Monroe. She was not a fctranuer In the Fouth In 1901, after her first year's work among Southern girls, she wrote: "I like the South ns much an I always thought I would and am glad to bo called one "f Its daughters, even by adoption.;' Win n he arrived at Monroe she said: "This m my town and these arc my people." Krom these people loved she went amy tu Ashevillc June 7th, 190, to attend the Southern Conference of the Young Women's Christian Associa tions. Sho was to be one of th speak- ri of Die ciinfrn nee.

In the "Fore word" of the memorial volume, says: "She was, in her own ier.ori the realization of an Ideal Christian wo man " The little book Is u worthy i tribute to a godly woman and will bo an Inspiration to those to whom it is dedicated "the young women of Ano ri:i whom Frances llrldges loved and for whom fhe tolled."

Mr. Atkinson's pur pose Is to Hell thla memorial of his wife's life and from the proceeds " Three notable Republican of the lower house of . Congreas have re cently failed of re-nominatlon. Two weeka aso Representative Jenkins, of Wisconsin, chairman of the Judiciary committee of tho House, fell outside th breastworks; within tha past few days Representatives Bede and Taw. hey, of Minnesota, 'the former tha wit of tho House, have similarly gone down. These facts afford soma intl matlon of tha Republican temper in the West and in a sens in tha coun try at large. Tha people want a change; and amongst other things it la significant that these three Con gressmen are conspicuous tanix stand-patters and that Beda In par tlcular Is a devotee of Speaker Can non and his methods, and that thla was the direct issue in his campaign for re-nomination. Ea-Oovernor Heyward, of 8outh Carolina after spending the summer at Blowing Rock, has returned to Co lumbia fully restored to health and ready to take up business again. This Is gratifying but it Is still a thousand pities that hla physical cOJlapse came when it did. Had he remained In health and able to participate In the campaign ho would almost surely have been elected to the Senate where he would have been an honor to his State and the South.

In .North Carolina, auri t, resented ar. old man. bent and half-blind with ago. , Immediately I racognlyed my old acquaintance, the master of the cream-colored bull. "Where la Jim Buchanan, your ox?" I Inquired. . Why. i-r, be died long ago. I had a mule after Jim Bucoanan pass ed away. That was a great beast. sir. Do you remember himT Certainly, I ueed tu see you drive him by the Central Hotel. He was of luch an unusual color that 1 will never forget him." Ha s gone. It was a sad day for me when I lost him, for my run of bad luck began then. I bought an old mule and he was burned to death by a mean negro." "Burned by a negro?" SET FIRE TO MULE. "Yes, sir. mule had ver min on him, and Mi. Valentine, a white gentleman, gave me a mixture lo kill 'em. John Palmer, a negro, brought the ointment to me and of fered to put it on. I took the har ness off of Jack, my mule, and Palmer greased him all over, and before realized what he was up to set fire to him, and before anything could be done ho was burned so badly that he had to be killed. Palmer was tried for cruelty to animals, convicted end sen? to the chaingang for four months. I have not had a mule since. I am loo old and too near blind to dodge these automobiles now, therefore. I thought it best to quit my old business of hauling aiops." For fifteen or more years Joe Mal lard was the ReiUbllcan leader of tnit community. lie has a very reten tive memory and was blessed with good sense. ' Although he is unlet tered, ha knows more history than thn average college graduate. At hi! advanced age he talks Intelligently of the Missouri Compromise and the) record of President Andrew Jackson. "How old are you, Uncle Joo?" 1 asked. "I will be 82 the 20th of the com ing November," whs the quick reply. "What is your full name?" "Joseph Keiijamm Pallard, or, at most people know me, J. B. Bal lard." "Where were you born?" "Kayettevllle. between the market house and Campbelltown." "Well, go ahead and tell me some thing about yourself, your history, your white people, and so forth." AN INTKKKHTINO STORY. William Peter Mallard, who mar ried Miss Amelia Davis, of this clt twned inc. 1 came heie in my 11th year, the 1st of June, isjs. au.i wem to work at Mr. T nomas A. nague s hotel, located on Main street, where Mr. W. W. Taylor now lives, and run by Mr. Ned Varhorougn, who went from here to Kalelgh and started tli hotel that bears his name." What did you do at the Hague House at t:u- age of 117" 1 was a chicken picker. After Mr. Yarborough left. Mr. William Crawford, father of Mr. James Craw ford, who died two weeks ago, iook charge of the hotel." was told that Mr. Jadcsoa was a very positive man; if he asked that any. thing be done It had to be so. That Is why Mr. Calhoun did not dare 'to disobey him, when he told him In Hit, that be would hang htm hlgtier than Hunan if he did so and so." Uncle Joe discussed historical events with more readiness than was com. lortaote for a Uuck-head like your n urn Die servant. . x switched him rrom history to other things. "You seem to be pretty well In lormea on an sorts or suDjecta," aid t Tes. sir. I try to keep ud with my neighbors. But there are three things mat no man knows. " "What are they?" THREE3 THIXOS THAT NO MAN KNOWS. "When he was born, when he goes to sleep, and when he is going to die." That sounded well to me. I had never, thought of it, but the old darky ,s right. "My, rather," said Uncle Joe, "was owned by Mr. Hugh Campbell, who went from here in J.78U, to Fayette vllle to live. I have often heard that he carried with him a half-bushel of silver money." "The DavUts," said the old negro, "moved from Fayettevllle to Salis bury, when the Democrats began to thrive on the Cape Fear. They were Whigs; Mr. . A. Davis was a great leader." "Did you eVer hear any big men speak here?" "1 heard Governor Vance in 1858, when he represented Mr. John Poole, of the east, and spoke on the square. You know Unit Mr. John Kills, of Davidson county, was the Democratic nominee and Mr. Poole, the Whli. That day iir. Vance told a little story that made Mr. Kills very mad. Mr. Vance said that he was On his way to the elevdlon. one day, when he met a lot of men, and they asked him if he had seen a man running, and when he asked what the trouble was they said a Democrat had stolen a chicken and they were trying to catch him." This yarn, said Uncle Joe, caused Senator Vance to take his company of mountaineers and enlist In Virginia, as Ellis was then the Governor of North Carolina. "Did ou ever go back to Fayette vllle?" I asked. "In 1560 to see my father, but everybody was so excited then that 1 did nut know how to keep out of tne way. I remained there three days and came back here. ' After the war I heard the Vance and Settle speeches here. Mr. Vance got i he best of it, for his crowd was composed of white people and Settle's of negroes. At the close of his aigumcnt the Democrat shook th hands of his supporters, kissed many of the ladies and then turned to Mr. Settle and said: 'Let's see you em- vmira.' That was a ltck below the be'lt. Mr. Settle could not kiss the darkles." Cncle Joe is a very reliable weather prophet. He follows the moon. The rtccnt freshet was predicted by him.

The w" '"dieted for causing that the United States court has Juris- wrMk ef gouthern Lmterl diction in the matter, but those of us In South Carolina who wish to see the grafters punished have not been aide to see any reason given by Judpe Prltchard for the appointment of re ceivers. The Institution la not In solvent arid the winding up commis sion according to Judge Prltchard's own statement was efficient. In fnct, he asked each member of the commission to serve as one of the re ceivers. His position seems to be that the commission is not competent to wind up the affaln of the dispensary and pav off Its debts under the order of th legislature of South Carolina, but that they are competent to do the same thing under his orders. Tou will see. therefore, that you are mis taken when you ear In your editorial that the State of South Carolina has offered any reistsnee to a Just claim nealnst its dispensary eommlsslon. On the eontrary, the commission hss been faithfully endeavoring to find out I what were Just elalms. and those i creditors or some of them who under suspicion of not having, lust -claims. In rder't block this InTestlestlon. have taken the matter to the United States courts. If the recetvershtn Stands it will mean that SRO.anft to 1100.000 win have to be paid the receivers tn fees, whereas the Members of the wlndlns nn commission, - which con sisted of prominent business men hav been receiving each only, ts a day and expenses far time actually given to near Beaufort some weeks ago by placing a bolt on the track.
