I j 1 THANKSGIVING DAY originated as a time of thanks for plentiful harvests which made it certain that the early settlers of America would be able to endure the winter without starving. Thanksgiving has gradually come to mean much more. It is the time of thanks for all such blessings as good crops, prosperity, health, peace, children, happy homes. In short, it is the one time of the year when the whole nation, regardless of creed or sect, unites in recognition of the spiritual—of our dependence on Almighty God. Those early New England pioneers endured severe hardships. They lived close to starvation, in fearful cold, amid hostile Indians. They had little to be thankful for. yet they devoutly gave thanks. Surely we should he made thoughtful and appreciatively humble as we ponder how much more we have to be thankful for than the Pilgrims. BODY OF* MRS.

At the highest of the day prices were 46 to 54 points up. The close was 41 I to 51 points up. with the last itranac -1 lions in January at 35.47. Highest j prices came late in the day.

The order was generally obeyed, and in less than 24 hour*; the county had been cleared of the blacks, and as a result work on roads and in the mines was halted. Governor Cameron Morrison was notified and ordered national guardsmen to the scene with orders to protect the negroes and guarantee their right as citizens. With the coming of troops some of the negroes returned to their positions, but the major portion of the 200 or more ordered out of the county did not return. The troops were with drawn 10 days later after conditions had again become normal (loss was captured three days later and tried at a special -term of Mitchell county superior court.
