"Sometime you will miss me, diirlinj;,
"When the long night shadows full,
I shall be beyond the starlight,
And I shall not hear you call.
You will oftimen at midnight,
And will think of one dear head
That your bosom softly pillowed
Resting among the dead !
"All the precious love you gave me
In the olden, happy time.
You will think of, and weave it
Deftly int heartfelt rhyme.
Yon will miss me it must be so,
l!ut perhaps our God will give
L'nto me the power to eheer you
And watch o'er you while you live.
"I shall como if he is willing.
At the lonely midnight hour,
And my presence solt around you
Shall enfold w hen storm-clouds lower,
Shielding you from every evil,
Though yon m.iy not see my face,
I w ill never leave you lonely
There shall he no vacant place.
"All the hopes and aspirations,
All the precious love we've known,
This sliall draw nur souls together
Uonnd l!ie great Kterual Throne.
Do not inourn for me, my darling,
.Meekly hear the chastening rod
Think that I am with you always
1, who love you next to liod."
SOUTHERN PORTS.
THE FUTURE OUTLETS
IIUAIN.
Foil WESTERN
The Maniifactnrrrs' Record of
Scp-
tgmber 1 2 says;
The receDt advance in cotton, and the
assurance of the largest grain crops i'or
many years, have still further strengthened
the position of the South in all business
and financial matters, and everything in
dicates a very active winter and spring.
The tendency of capital seeking invest
ment must inevitably be Southward, for
no other country possesses such wonder
ful resources, and nowhere else are the
possibilities of profitable development so
promising. The increasing importance
of the South's foreign trade and the posi
tion of Southern ports as the future out
let for the grain of the West is illustrated
by the fact that Galveston is to have a
1,000,000-bushels elevator and New Or
leans one of 300,000 bushels capacity,
while the grain trade at Norfolk has de
veloped so rapid'y that the elevator there
has been unable to handle the business,
and a floating elevator has been secured
from New York, and even one of the big
coal piers is being used in helping to
transfer the immense traffic from the cars
to the steamships, while some days ago the
Norfolk k Western had nearly 600 grain
loaded cars on the track at Norfolk. This
rapid growth of the export business of
the South, added to the industrial devel
opment that has been going on for the
last few years, will greatly enhance the
prosperity of this whole section. New
industrial enterprises are daily being
organized, and as this is not a speculative
period, they must all be of a solid char
acter. MAKHIAGH IS A FAII.l HI'.

friend Simnson. as we halted
asked my
before a
saloon in Toughville, Mont.
"What if I haven't?" I answered eva
sively. 'I asked for information. You are a
stranger here; you know, and you don't
tuck your pauts in our boots, or talk
about our private graveyard, or anything
like that, and as I've L'ut to go in here
and interview the proprietor I won't
1 take yen along unless your nerve will
J stand it."
j "Ijo in," I answered laconically.
I We entered a long, low-ceiled room
with a bar at unu end. Several card
tables were scattered about at which
gentlemen of rather unsavory appearance
anil reckless inamieis were playing.
While my friend was transacting his
business with the proprietor I drew a
chair into a corner and tried to appear
perfectly at home.
Taking a cigar from my pocket I
calmly placed it between my lips and
lighted it, when whiz! it was knocked
clear out of my mouth by a pistol ball.
I never so much as winked an eye! I
did not even turn to see who had done
the firing, but, with the greatest coolness,
I drew another cigar from my pocket
and lighted it. I leaned back in my
chair and smoked with extreme noncha
lance I don't think, I have ever before
or since, been so utterly and so hopelessly
non :halantasupon the occasion set forth.
As I smoked, the ashes naturally ac
cumulated upon the end of my weed,
anl I was just thiuking of knocking
them off when that unknown friend with
h's convenient pistol performed the ser
vice for me.
Everyone in the saloon was looking
in my direction, but did not show the
barest tip of a white feather. I puffed
away, with head thrown back and a
dreamy contented expression on my face
that I would have tried in vain to pro
duce under ordinary circumstances.
Again the ashes accumulated, and
again the timely bullet removed them.
At this stage I found myself wonder
ing how I was going to keep my nerve
when that cigar had burned down to a
mere stump and my friend's marksman
ship would he required to pick it out
from between my teeth.
But I was equal to the emergency, and
when my cheroot was two-thirds gone I
held it out between my thumb and fore
finger, while the unknown shot it out
with a skill that was remarkable. Then
I dusted my hands, brushed the ashes
from my clothes and joined my friend at
the door. Before we could leave the
room, howevtr, a man in a blue shirt and
buckskin leggins, carrying a six-shooter
in his hand, approached and embraced
me.
"Say pard, dern my pietur if I hain't

eye that I've carried ever since I broke

"Well?"
"Say, I want yer to ftand up there in
the corner en let me thoot a dime off yer
nose "
"Come on here," said my friend Simp
son, as he yanked me through the door
by the tail of my coat, without giving me
time to frame a reply.
But I was glad he did it. A dime
isn't very thick, and then Vermillion Pete
might have mi.ssed it. Exchange,
