WHEN 1 AM. DEAD.
I do not want a Raping crowd,
To come with lamentations loud
When life has lied;
Nor would I have my words or ways
Kuhearsed. perhaps 'raid tardy praise,
When I am dead. .
' I do not want strange, cnrlous eyes
To scan my face when still it lies
In silence dread;
Nor do I want them if they would,
.To tell my deeds were ill or good,
When I am dead.
I only want the "very few"
Who stood through good and evil, too,
True friendship's test;
Just they who sought to find the good,
Aud then, as only true friends could, ,;,
Forgive the rest.
" I
They who, with sympathetic heart,
Sought hone and comfort to impart,
When there was life ;
Not keeping all the tears and sighs
Till weary, worn-out nature dies,
1 And ends the strife.
I'd have them come, the "friendly few,"
Aud drop, perhaps, a tear or two,
By kindness led;
Not many tears I'd have them shed,
Nor do I want much sung or said,
When I am dead.
CZ3 To have them each come in alone,
. And call me in the old, sweet tone,
Would suit me best ;
And then, without a sob or moan,
Go softly out and leave alone
The dead to rest.
Just as I've lived, almost unknown,
A life unmarked, obscure and lone,
80 let me die ;
Just one who lived, and loved, and died,
A mound of earth and naught beside,
There let me lie.
He Diet Ilia Own Marrying.
John G. Thomason, 72 years of age
of bummeryille, South Carolina,
is
probably the first and only man who
has officiated at his own marriage ser

he has done something remarkable and
worthy of notice.
lie was not phased in the slightest
rie saia he wanted a wile ana he im
mediately began to try to get one. He
found several girls whom he thought
he could love and finally he centered all
his affections upon one, Miss Emily
Alice Lamb, who resided about seven
miles from Summerville. She agreed
to marry him and arrangements for the
marriage were immediately begun.
Mr. Thomason said tae magistrates
and ministers had frequently expressed
their sympathies for him and their
willingness to officiate when he got
girl who would be willing to marry him.
but when he finally produced her they
all flunked and would not perform the
ceremony. Mr. Thomason was not
again to be outdone, so he d3cided to
officiate at his own marriage. He Be
cured a number of witnesses for the
appointed tim, which was on the after
noon of April 23. Miss Lamb was pres
ent and when the time came, he said
he called her and told her to stand on
his left. He then read the service, and
at the proper place took her hand. He
made his own response, and at the con
clusion he told the gathering that he
and Miss Lamb were now Mr. and Mrs.
Thomason, and they were con grata
lated.
Mr. Thomason said that he had been
marrying people for twenty-five years
and he saw no reason why he should
not marry himself. He said that he
had discarded his former wife who de
serted him last summer, and he lives
happily with his present wife, .who, by
the way, is the third woman to whom
he has been married. Mrs. Thomason
is 32 years of age.

Dili L MIPS LETTISH.
A friend living in Arkansas writes
me about the recent fall of a meteor
near his home, and he compliments
me by asking some questions that
cannot answer. The origin of meteors
and their flight and fall is vet the un
solved problem of the ages.
He says that on the 16th of last month
at 8 o'clock in the morning, when
there was a clear sky and not a cloud
to be seen, there was a rumbling sound
of thunder so weird and unnatural that
it wa8 alarming. It was like the rolling
ot heavy trucks over an uneven plat
. 1 1 -w.
rorm, oniy immensely louder, it was
heard in all the neighboring towns, and
they all telegraph each other to know
if a mill had not blown up or a maga
zine exploded. Suddenly there was
an explosion .in the air and a dark
cloud formed and meteoric fragments
fell at different places in this vicinity,
A small piece that weighed one and
half poundu fell in a field near by and
was brought to town while it was yet
hot. It was powder-blackened on the
outside, but inside was a grayish color,
and its particles Bhone like gold dust
Under the microscope they resembled
quicksilver.
It was a full minute from the begin
ning of the rumbling thunder till the
explosion came, and the course of the
sound was from east to west. The
event was so unexpected and so like
the mythology of Jupiter tonans throw
ing a bumb from Mt. Olympus that the
white people were spellbound, and the
negroes declared it a warning and went
to prayer.
Philosophers and astronomers have
been studying these phenomena for
2,500 years, and have not yet agreed
upon a solution. The archives of the
Chinese empire record the fall of six
teen great aerolites from 800 to 600
years before Christ. The Greeks and
Komans record a number, and Aristotle
and Diogenes commented upon them
So did Livy, Plutarch and Pliny. They
nave been seen so large that the
estimated weight of the fragments after
the explosion was 30,000 pounds, and
the light was so bright as to pale the
sun by day and obscure the moon by
night. There is now in the Yale
college cabinet a fragment that weighs
l,6do pounds. This came from near
the Red river in Arkansas. . Many of
the western states have furnished
specimens for the museums of colleges
and all of them are composed of the
same mineral ingredients principally
iron and include copper, tin, sulphur,
carbon and other metals known to our
own earth. Not a single new substance
has ever been discovered, and for this
reason the theory obtained that they
were thrown up from our own vol
canoes with such force as to wander for
a time in the outer atmosphere of the
earth, and to revolve with the earth
But this theory has long since been
abandoned, for they seem to have an
orbit of their own from west to east
men came a theory that they came
from the moon, and were of volcanic
origin, and were thrown out with such
terrific force as to get beyond the
moon's influence and within that of
our earth. But this was discredited
because these fragments have been
falling, no doubt, for thousands of years
on the land and on the sea, and on all
countries, and would have by this time
materially diminished the size and
weight of the moon. La Place and
Hum bolt favored this moon theory for
a time. But our modern astronomers,
such as Professors Arago and Almsted
and Bowditch declare that meteors are
simply clouds or nebulae of meteoric
plannets that have a motion and orbit
of their own, and that orbit sometimes
comes within range of the earth's and
produces a commotion a disturbance
that causes the fall of some of their
own nebulae. Some of the children
got too far away from their mother,
reckon.
Sometimes me tors are simply lumi
nous and have no body to explode or
strike the earth. These have periodic
vibrations of thirty-four years. They
come in showers as thick as snowflakes,
and fall as gently to within a few feet
of the earth and are extinguished,
They fell in 1799, 1833 and 1867, and
each fall was on the 13th of November.
But there have been minor displays at
irregular intervals generally about
the 10th of August. I am old enough
to remember well the "falling of the
stars" in 1833. My father held me in
his arms as he stood in the portico, for
was scared. Our old negro, aunt
Minty, was praying and shouting so
it scared all of us children. George
Lester lived on the opposite side of the
street, and his mother held him in her
arms. Sometimes in these later days I
would get my old-time friends, Dr. Jim
Alexander or his brother Tom, or
George Adair, and we could boast of
the wonderful era in which we had
lived, and the advent of steamboats
and railroads and cotton gins, and
sewing machines, and telegraphs, and
we never neglected to say, "aud we
saw the stars fall in 1833." Dewey
never saw a night like that but I
reckon the Spaniards at Manila thought
they did on the 1st of May.
But this is enough about the meteors.
At least, it is about all that I know.
Joe Mulhattan, or Munchausen, made
up a big fake a few years ago awhile
was in Texas and telegraphed the fall
of a meteor near Brownwood that was
as big as a meeting house and had
buried itself thirty feet in the earth. I
was at Brownwood a few days after
1 11 . -m
ana me postmaster was as mad as a
hornet with Joe, for telegrams came to
him from all over the United States
and England wanting to know about it
and wanting to buy it at any cost. Joe
had to leave there and hide out for
a month or two. The postmaster
answered a tew and then swore on.
There is one good thing about meteors.
They never hurt anybody. The books
say it is remarkable and perhaDS'provi
dential that in all the earth there is no
record of one having fallen on anybody
or destroyed a habitation, Terrestial

young farmer who wants to know if iM
is good farming to follow grain with
gram. He does not say what kind of
grain, but I will tell him that fifteen
years ago The Courier-Journal of Ken
tucky, offered a prize of $1,000 for the
best essay on pratical agriculture. Over
200 were contributed and the essay
that got the prize detailed the writer's
plan of farming in Kentucky. It was
brief, very brief. He had laid off his
corn rows seven feet apart, drilled his
corn eighteen inches apart, cultivated
the ground thoroughly and harrowed
it; sowed wheat early and harrowed it
in. When the corn was ready to
gather he drove the wagon in every
sixth row and loaded from three rows
each side. After the corn were all
gathered he went oyer the cornstocks
crossways with a heavy roller and rolled
it all down fiat on the wheat. The
stocks and the blades covered it like a
blanket. When the first good snow
fell he sowed clover on the snow.
When it rained or thawed the clover
seed fell into the ground and took root,
and so he had corn and wheat and
clover following in rotation and made
a fine crop of each.
But in this region our farmers have
learned the value of peas as a fertilizer
and stock food, and the harvest of hay
this year will no doubt double all pre
vious records. One of my friends has
a small farm near town and last year
harvested a fair crop of wheat from a
twenty-acre field. After the wheat was
off he sowed ten acres of the ground in
cow peas. Last fall he sowed it all
down in wheat and this spring you
could tell just where the line of peas
came to. There was no difference in
the qualtiy of the land. It was all
level and all alike and yet he harvested
this year ten bushels per acre on one
half and eighteen on the other. Now,
what caused this great difference? It
was the shade of the pea vines, the
shade that produces nitrocftn. and
nitrogen is the best of all plant food.
The denser the shade the more nitrogen
goes down into the soil. A canebrake,
a briar patch, a clover covering, an old
house in a field remove it and plant
the ground that was under it and see
how luxariant vegotation grows. Plant
a grape vine near your house and the
roots will all run under the house to
feed to feed on nitrogen. My wife
has a wisteria vine at the end of the
veranda, and three years' time its
roots had traveled underneath the floor
and sent up sprouts twenty feet away
and tor a time we did not know where
they came from. A good farmer will
shade everything he can. He will field
with wheat straw. There is ro virtue
in wheat straw, but it makes Bhade,
ana tnai mastes nitrogen. There is no
virtue in a stone or in rocks, but they
make shade, and notice how plants
will grow near to rock wall. My long
lamented friend, Dr. Berchman, told
me that "rocks were God s blessing to
the land," and he purchased ten acres
of very stony land for his vineyard and
his liower garden.
It rejoices me to see how our middle
Georgia farmers are looming up on
wheat culture. Forty bushels to the
acre, len years ago it would have
been declared impossible. This re
minds me of my old English neighbor,
John Allan, who asserted that his father
was never content m old Hen gland
with lees than sixty bushels of wheat
to the acre, and sometimes he made
seventy. "Sow wheat in dust and rye
in mortar," was his motto. Good old
John Allan. I shot his cow in mv
cornfield, for it was her third offense,
and the old man was grieved. He
never got mad, but only said: "I know
me coow worried ye, but but major.
wouldent have shot your coow. I
love you too well for that."
How true it is that "kind words take
away wrath." Bill Aep,
Wot Her Favorite Preacher.
A parson who occasionally preaches
in (south London arrived to take the
place of the yicar, who had been called
away on account of some family be
reavement, and found an old and rather
asthmatic lady struggling up the steps
which led to the front door. He cour
teously gave her his vra to assist her,
and when they reached the top the
dame asked him if he knew who was
going to preach.
"Mr. So-and-So, replied the parson,
giving his own name.
"Oh, dear me," exclaimed the old
lady, "help me down again, if you
please! I'd rather listen to the groaning
and creaking of a sawmill than sit un
der him," and she prepared to descend.
The parson gently assisted her down
stairs, aud eighfully remarked, as he
bade her good-by, "I wouldn't go in
either if I weren't the preacher.
OVATION FOU Mil. BKYAN.
Nebraskan's Tour of Kentucky Was
Great Personal and Democratic Trl
umph.
Lexington, Ky., October 18. The
speeches of William Jennings Bryan in
the Blue Grass region of Kentucky yeB
terday afternoon created great enthusi
asm. The Democratic leader seemed to
be at his best and he made some telling
points in iavor oi uoebei and the regu
lar Democratic ticket. He was given an
ovation at nearly every town, and de
spite a great storm and heavy downpour
of rain all the afternoon great crowds
wailed at thTTdepots to get a glimpse at
tneTQt$rakan.
1 The reception, which was of the most
enthusiastic character, continued every
where the party stopped during the dav
Mr. Bryan was introduced as the man
who "came with a meseage of warning
and advice to the Democracy of the
State and natkn." He said:
"I would not deserve your confidence
if 1 stayed in Nebraska and allowed
bolting Democrats to play on my name
If bolting Democrats want to vote for
Republicans, or for a Democrat put up
in opposition to the regular nominee of
the party, let them do it, but let them
come out boldly and state their real ob
ject and not claim that they are doing
it to save me.
"I know something of bolters. There
were some in 1896. (Laughter). Only
the bolters of 1896 said they bolted be
cause of a principle, and a bolt against
a principle is higher than a yote against
a person. 1 regard a principle as mfi
nitely more important than a person
What did the bolter do in 1896? He
helped to elect the president, and every
thing that Republican president has
done that bolter who helped to elect him
is responsible for.
"Your governor signs the credentials
of the electors who repreient the people
of this btate in the electonal college,
and sometimes the election is close. It
was close in 1896, if I am not mistaken
(laughter). I have my suspicions that
it was closer on the count than it was
on the vote. (Laughter and applause.'
I have heard it said that General Har
din was defeated in 1895 because s
great many men who had a right to
vote did not put their votes into the
ballot box, and I have a suspicion that
we lost Kentucky in 1896 because
great many votes were put into the bal
lot box that had no individuals entitled
to vote behind them. (Applausee.)
I know that the contest in which we
were engaged was a great contest, a
contest where victory was bo important
to the aggregation of, wealth that they
contributed to a campaign fund the
most magnificent ever used in any cam
paign in the United States. Victory
was bo important to them that they
raised a fund which I think I may say
was larger than all the campaign funds
used by the Republican party from the
day that Fremont ran down to the day
when Hanna took charge of the organi
zation.
"Men who feel that victory is so im
portant to them financially will bring
to bear all the influence they can to
control the action of the people, and
am afraid that in a very close place
they might be able to manufacture votes
if necessary. (Applause.) When such
pressure is brought to bear upon those
who stand in authority I would rather
have a Democratic governor to certify
to elections than a Republican governor,
"It has been suggested to me that
this bolting convention endorsed me for
the presidency. I appreciate the good
will and confidence thus expressed, but,
my friends, I would be unworthy the
confidence expressed by those bolting
Democrats if I did not place the prin
ciple involved above a personal compli
ment. (Applause.)
"I have a right to believe that the
Democrats in this State will vote in
1900 for any Democrat whom they
please, that they will want a Democrat
who is true to the principles in which
they believe and one who can advance
the cause to which they are wedded. I
am interested in the triumph of these
principles. I have talked for them be
fore they were written in the Chicago
platform. In this very building in June
or July 1895, a year before there was a
Chicago platform, I Btood upon this
floor and defended the free and un
limited coinage of gold and silver at the
ratio of 16 to 1. I stand today where 1
stood then.
"If there are reasons in this State
that make it necessary for you to elect
a Republican governor and a Republi
can senator, then give these reasons
and don't put it on the ground that you
are trying to save the cause of free sil
ver. I know these men who have been
fighting for free silver. I have come in
contact with them. I know their char
acter and zeal, and I know what they
have done for Democracy, and I would
rather trust the judgment of such men
as Stone and Jones and Wetmore and
Johnson as to what is best for Demo
cracy than the judgment of the rail
roads. The railroads have been in
politics before. We have them in Ne
braska, and I know in 1896 nearly.
every railroad in this nation wag basil

while every citizen has a right to vote
as he pleases, while every citizen owes
it to himself, his country and his God
to voto according to his conscience, yet
every intelligent citizen is responsible
for the consequences of his act. If
every candidate on the bolting ticket
was my brother I would not advise any
one to vote the ticket and thus aid in
the election of a Republican governor,
(Applause).
A Coming Meteoric Spectacle.
Baltimore Sun.
On the 14th or 15th of November
next a magnificient display of meteors
is to be expected by persons who watch
the eky at night especially late at
night, toward sunrise. Meteors are
small solid bodies shooting through
space at a yelocity averaging 25 miles a
second. The fragments of wrecked
comets, they travel in orbits more or
less regular. Owing to the perturbing
influences of other heavenly bodies,
they no longer all travel together, but
are scattered along the whole length of
their orbits, being thicker at some
places than at others. As their orbits
approach very nearly that of the earth,
they can be Been at all times of the
year, but particularly in November,
when we encounter an unusually large
group. Such as pass through our at
mosphere are heated by the frictioa of
the particles of air to a white heat and
become visible. Their velocity is checked
and they sometimes fall to the earth,
either in masses known as meteoric
stones, or more frequently as a fane
powder produced by the anvil-like re
sistance of the air. As a single obser
ver can see, upon an average, five me
teors an hour any night of the year, it
has been calculated that if the whole
earth were covered with observers the
number visible daily would be from fif
teen to twenty millions. Adding those
too faint to be seen with the unassisted
eye, it is estimated that 100,000,000
meteors traverse our atmosphere daily.
The number on November 14 or 15 if
the astronomer's prediction is verified
will far exceed the average of 15,000,-
000 or 20,000.000. anproachine. ner-

Reproved By Bryan..
New York, Oct. 17. William J.
Bryan, in a sharp note to a local politi
cian who has been workiner for his
success ever since he was nominated
in 1896, indicates that Bryan counts on
the support of Tammany Hall in the
next convention.
It indicates also that he does not want
to offend Richard Croker by approving
or even seeming to approve David B.
Hill in the former Senator's fights
against the Tammany leader.
At the recent meeting of the Demo
cratic State Committee in the Hoffman
Houee, when Croker so thoroughly
vanquished Hill, the Bryanite politician
who received the letter referred to, was
present with a proxy and voted with
Hill against Croker on every proposi
tion except the resolution indorsing Mr.
Bryan. Mr. Hill did not vote.
With sadness the Bryanite supporter
of Hill told today of the receipt of what
he called a hard "throw down from
the silver leader. Mr. Bryan did not
mince words in reproving his Eastern
friend for overzeal, which he declared
tended to harm him with the regular
New York organization. Bryan, it is
said, declared he wanted nothing what
ever to do with Hill.
Exercise.
Next to bodily cleanliness exercise
may, l think, be reckoned as the great
est aid to beauty. In fact, exercise is
almost necessary to cleanliness, for it is
a great incentive to perspiration, which
is Nature's way of throwing out the im
purities of the body to the surface of
the skin, which are then removed by
the use of soap and water. Open air
exercise should be taken every day, but
according to strength. One should re
turn home after walking or ridiag or.
cycling with a sense of being pleasant
ly fatigued, but without any feeling of
exhaustion. Exercise should be taken
regularly, and if possible dumb bells
should be used night and morning; the
corset should not be worn while exer
cising with dumb bells. Skipping is an
excellent exercise for the figure; it is
one oi wnicn our granamothers were
fond, and I have known certain old
ladies who preserved quite youthful
figures by their habit of skipping It is
usual with children to throw the rope
forward when skipping, but it is far bet
ter to throw it backward, for it expands
the chest much better.
No Improvement In Condition.

York cotton men, have issued another

TIIM PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE.
A Forecast of Ita Moat Important Re
commendations.
Washington, Oct. 19. With the
return of President McKinley and hia
Cabinet to-day will commence the
preparation of what promises to be an
unusally important message to Con
gress. The message, it is believed, will
contain the following recommendations:
Philippines Sovereignty to be estab
lished by all the force that may be
needed and to be maintained parman-
ently. Civil government to follow the
military at the earliest possible moment,
and wide latitude to be allowed tha
natives in local self-government. The
recommendations for the specific form
of civil government to be established in
the islands to be based on the conclu
sions of the Philippine commissions.
ouba, Military occupation to be con
tinued .until some substantial ' progress
has been made, through the medium of
suffrage, toward the establishment of
an independent form of government.
iruerto luce Uivil government to im
mediately replace the present military
government.
Hawaii Immediate legislation to nut
in effect a territorial form of govern
ment.
Financial The maintenance of the
present gold standard. Currency and
banking recommendation to be based
upon the conclusions of the Republican -caucus
committee of the House and
Republican members of tho Finance
Committee of the Senate.
Foreign Affairs The outcome of The
Hague conference to be pointed to with
satisfaction, and a statement made that
the treaty agreed to at this conference
will be submitted at once to the Senate.
Gratification will be expressed at the
final settlement of the Venezuelan
boundary controversy.
The statement is to be made that ne
gotiations are in progress for a final so
lution or the bamoan question, and
that a treaty providing tor a new plan
of government will probably be sub
mitted soon.
A new executive department, with a
Cabinet officer at its head, to have '
charge of all matters relating to inter
state, colonial and foreign commerce,
which are now divided among the sev
eral different departments, will be
strongly urged.
Trusts Regulation of trusts and
great commercial combinations so as to
prevent the stifling of competition and
the levying of tribute upon consumers
by the inordinate advances in prices,
but without hampering the deyelopment
of American manufacturing and com
merce. Inter-Ocean Canal Emphasis to be
giyen to the importance of early action
by congres for the construction of an
inter-oceanic canal.
Shipping The passage of a shiD sub
sidy bill to be urged.
Army Recommendations for the
prompt reorganization of the army to
be delayed until after the close of the
war in the Philippines.
No reference will probably be made
to the nominations of Rear-Admiral
Sampson and Schley and other officers
participating in the Santiago campaign.
which failed of action at the last session
of Congress, but later in the session
something will probablv be done bv the
Administration toward rewarding these
officers.
There is a rumor to the effect that
the Seaboard Air Line contemplates
extending a line to Greensboro, within
the next year, says the Richmond Dis
patch. The rumor is not confirmed by
the chief officials of the road in this city.
