Come all you valia:vt soldier.'" A story I will tell About a noted battle You all remember v.ell. Chorus. Sing carry me away, Sing cairy me asay. It was an awful battle. It makes th? blood run chill. It was an awfu" battle, And fought on Shiloh Hill it was on the 6th, of April, Just at the break of day, The drums and bauds were play ing For us to march away. The feeling of that moruing I do remember still, When first my feet were treading The top of Shiloh Hill. About the hour of sunrise This battle did begin, And before the day had ended, We fought from hand to hand. The horror and the fighting My heart with anger fill id. The wounded and the dying. That lay on Shiloh hill. So early on next morning They cried to arms agaia, Unmindful of the wounded, Uunrndful of the slain. The battle was renewed io,ooo more were killed That was the second battle, Wt fought on Shiloh hill. There were men from every na, tiou. Lay on this bloody plain, There were fathers, sons, and brothers, All numbered with the slain. It caused so many homes With mourning to be filled; All from the bloody battle We fought on Shiloh hill, The wounded men were crying For help from everywhere; ' While others that were dying Were offering God their prayers. "Lord save my wife and child ren If it be thy Holy will," And this was the cry, I heard on Shiloh hill. Before the day had ended, This battle ceased to roar, io,ooo soldiers had fallen, To rise no more. And now my song is ended About this bloody plain, And I hope the sight will never Be seen by mortal men again. W. T. Clink. A Burnt Child Dreads Fire. Wi'miogton Star. People who are old enough to be reminiscent, remember the day when the cotton growers thought they were rained bfe cause cotton went down to 25 cts, a pound. In those days it cost a pile of money to run a plantation for everything was high and we doubt whether there was as much clear money in cotton as there is to-day. Old folks remember when the bagging and the ties on cotton cost a little fortune and nearly every other expense in producing cotton in those days was proportionately high, It is true that the cotton grow ers ''did keep on making it as it went down, ' and the time was when the farmers planted all cot ton and depended on buying their provisions and even the corn and hay which they fed to their stock. They had all their eggs in one basket the all cot ton basket and disaster over took the agricultural industry of the South. There is no telling how greatly the agricultural re cuperation of the South was re tarded by the unthinking agri cultural policy, of those days when the people were engaged in a fierce struggle to overcome the effects of war. In the days when cotton grow ing came very near bankrupting the farmers they had no South ern Cotton Association, but in the midst of trials they cut their eye-teeth, and if they are wise they will stick to that potent friend of the cotton, Our cotton growers should nev er get back in the old rut. Div ersified crops and reduced acer tge in cotton will keep our farm ers from "'going on the lien" agaii, There have bean to.eh days with the cotton growers and it will be their own fault if they again go around with a mortgage begging somebody to "carry"theia fromyeirto year. c .n. r.i :c rs Z'TL ' j:. .

What occurred at the meeting is not yet disclosed, but it is knawn that a letter from Governor Glenn cut an important figure in the hearing, The letter, which urged the reappointment of Mr. Holton, is said to haye reflected upon tha congressman.

As I said, no reference was made to Mr. Blackburn in any way. Jn a private cenversati n I had with Piesident Roosevelt I gave him my estimate of District Attorney Holton as an officer and told him that I thought a change at the present time would not be wise." As to Governor Glenn and con gressoaan Blackburn not being on speakisg terms the governor declared that the congressman from the eighth district called on him when he was last in Ral eigh and they had a brief bat pleasant chat in the executive office. On the stump the gov ernor has opposed both Black burn and Holton with might and main and he expects to do so in the future, but the report of per sonal estrangement was news to him. Holton. Charlotte Chronicle, The Greensboro Kecord is au thority fer the statement that Blackburn was making pretty g X)d headway in his efiorts to have Holton ousted until First Assistant Attorney General Ronb went to Greensboro, last ureek, This official, says The Record, "made no bones f the f ;ct that his eyes had been open ed; ia fact he was so astonished at what be saw that he could not keep quiet. Yet when he came here he was laboring under the imnression that Holton was a fake and was actually 'persecut ing' the poor revenue men. Mr, Roosevelt appears to be a pretty hard man to fool. Holton IS a terror to the evildoers of his dis trict and his crusade against them has but started. Block adars and government officers who haye been standing in with iiad as well take to the taller tim ber," All of which throws mucb light on the cause of Blackburn's failure in this instance Don't deceive yourself.

Great truths are often told in fewest -crords, Sublimest eloquence is some- j times couched i cnawo. in simplest Ian- Sighs and tears will never pay n-'-hv arrears for neglected duties. We find real jw in thinking well and kindly of others - A pleaseat tone and a sweet sail cst nathmg, and oh what brightness they scatter. The saddest thing in all this world is that heart which is in capable of nursing feelings of sadness. Many, who wear upon earth a crown of thorns, will wear in Heaven a radiant crown of eter nal glory. A smile in sleep is the noiseless ripple in the the paacsfal current of a pleasent dream. Loye is the golden key which opens me aeor to ine temple oi the purest raptures and most thrilling ecttacies we find on earth. Respect for woman is the gold en and attractive badge of a true gentleman, reveals that chivalry and gailsntry which gives to man- hood its hightest nobility and kiniiest royalty. Tho most winning smiles are these which play around a glist ening eye, and tell of sorrowing The ministry of a pure, good woman is like a blessing from Heaven. It angelizes humanity, and shows that God ia His good ness placed in woman a germ of the higher and purer and sweet est life to draw our thoughts to Heaven- Wifehood isijwoman's noblest realm of glory and of witchery, I of splendor and enchantment; and motherhood is the sacred throne upon which she reigns most royally, and shows the richest and purest and sweetest treasures of her heart. All prayers, however sincere and earnest, are not answered. We know what we want, God knows what we need, and in His wisdom and goodness he gives us that which will prove a comfort and a blessing, and not a hurt and a curse. o let us trust mm implic itly, and rely upon His wisdom and His meacy. and then all will be well, for in His gifts the sweet st blessings dwell. The glory of love is like the glory af the sun, and both are eyer gushing fountains of cheer and beauty and splendor. What the sunbeams are to inanimate creation loye is to the human. for as the former gilds the earth with glory and with brightness, the latter fills life with beauty and with fragrance, and makes every landscape a picture of enchantment and every sound a poem of rapture. And when this love reigns in our home circles there is Heaven npon earth with all ef its glories and it's beau tias, its flowers and its odors, its songs and its harmon ies, its joys and its raptures, for invft is Heaven and tieayen is love, Escapes ea a Technicality.

Breese was sentenc ee to the federal penitentiary at Atlanta, but he appealed and the r.rdif.t was set asine oecause two members of the grand jury had not paid their poll tax. It was a simple technicality that operated in his favor, but law is generally supposed to be techni cal and justice as a result is often whipped The decision does not mean that Breese is innocent. CASTOR I A For Infants and Children. ITbe Kind Yoa Haw Always Bought I! - Bears the Signature of . ... New York Syndicate to Hols' op Cotton. Atlanta, Ga,, Feb. 7. Presi dent Harvia Jordan, of the South ern Cotton Association, made the following statement today befor leaving for New York. i "I hare been definitely assured ? tnat an underwriting symdicate. ! headed by E. R. Thomas and ', backed by the strongest financial syndicate in New York, will un derwrite 500,000 bales of cotton at 13 cents. This preposition will not interfere with those spot holders, who desire to hold fer 15 cents" President Jordan dis tinctly declared that the South ern Cotton Association and its officers have no connection with the proposed syndicate but will work with it as with any other agency, to raise the price of the staple. POOL FOR 13-CEST COTTON. New York. Feb. According to authoratiye statements made to- j day ia Wall street, Edward R. Thomas, with several have aerreed to rnt nn friends at leasi $2,000,000 to finance a 400,000 bale cotton pool. This is the largest pool ever formed in tha history of cotton speculation. Mr. Thomas, however, does not look upon the operation as a cot ton market movement, but as an effort to help the Southern cotton dealer obtain 13 cents a bale for h:s unsold cotton. Word was received today that the Southern Cotton Growers' Association will co-operate with Mr. Thomas. So will Joseph H. Hoadley, who succeeded to the position vacated by Daniel J. Sul ly when failure overtook that fa mous market operator. Mr. Thomas' connection with the cotton fight dates from a re cent visit of Harvie Jordan, pres ident of the Southern Cotton Growers' Association, to this city, Mr, Hoadley promised Mr Jordan that he woul l raise suffi cient capital to hold cotton at IS cents a pound. As Mr. Thomas is greatly interested in develop ing Southern trade for his bank ing institutions, he conceived the idea of warehousing the cotton and lending money on the staple. When the Hoadley project was brought to him to underwrite a fund to hold cotton at a certain price, it is said, he atonce accept ed the proposition. A Marriage Mix-Up. Winston Gaidf . Martin Peoples, of this city. was married :o Mrs. Anna Hine, of old Town. It requires some expert figuring to keep track of Mart" Peoples, as a rule, and in this instance it looks like he had thrown us. On the 2nd of No yemqer 1904 the reservoir was blown up or exploded, and his wife was killed. Peoples himself had to be carried to the hospital for several weeks of repair. Get ting on foot again, he purchased a fine team of bays, had their tails wrapped in ribbon, and kept the ice and snow moving between Winston and Old Town. And now we find things as above stated. Now "Mart" Peoples is net a bad man, but he is the worst mixed-up man we ever saw. His bride was his last wife's stepmother, and hence he becomes his own daddy. He not only becomes his own daddy, but he is now his stepson's grand father and his mother-in-law's husband, and the father of his latd wife. His wife is in nearly as bad a fix ,as she is her hus band's mother and her grand children's mother also. But "Mart" Peoples can work it out. and will no doubt give a correct answer in the wind-up. He is evidentl a many of destiny. FRAUD EXPOSED. A few counterfeiters have lately been making and trying to sell imitations of Di, King's New Discovery for Consump tion.

Very few people outside of Pittsburg had ever heard of Charles Lockhart until he distin guished himself by dying and revealing the fact that he was worth a long tale of millions. Now the board of tax reyisien of Allegheny county claisas to have evidence that Lockhart's estate aggregates f 180,000,000. One nundred and eighty mil ions! That is just the sum Wil liam H. Vanderbilt divided among his numerous family wken he died, the richest man in the country. It is six times as much as the original Astor left in 1848. and eighteen times the wealth of Stephen Girali in 1831; and each of these was in turn the American Croesus. Vanderbilt, Astor, Girald, were all names known far and wide, Lockhart was practically unheard of. There is no longer distinction in being rich. Unless the 'poor devil ol a millionaire" can do something besides make money he is likely to be submerged with the other slaves of routine. At best he is only an awful example to warn a youngar generation that in these days a scientific discovery made or a geod book written or a good picture painted or a public service rendered is a much snrer road to distinction than the piling up of an unrea sonable number of dollars, AGONIZING BURNS are instantly relieved, and, perfectly healed, by Bnchlen's Arnica Salve.
