Behold, amid the row* of gleaming white, The heedless negro alnga, and stoops to pluck The fleecy boll. Beneath the glaring light Of Southern aklea, all thoughtleaa of the luck That lifts or fells earth's kingdoms and her men, He onward goes across the far-stretched fields, ' And sings and bends and sings and bends again. Heaping the fluffy lo«d. Oh. power that wields! What might this common worker of the soil Who grapples with the silent dust for bread Doth hold within those fingers! Stooped with toll. With every bend he spins a mighty thread That, reaching forth, doth hold the waiting earth In bonds as strong as Is her common dearth! Deaths and Funerals Mr». Perry Shumate. Mr*.

JUSTAWALK-flWAY OP ROOSEVELT CAMP Special to The Uenrgtsn. 8tamboul, La., Oct. 9.—President Roosevelt is ready to take a trail early today. The rain, which kept him from hunting yesterday, has ceqied. The president Is enjoying his outing Immensely. Venison and trout form the principal features of his menu, and the keen air has given the executive an excellent appetite. Several reports of bear In the vicini ty have been received. The Metcalf brothers, famous hunt ers of Greenville, Miss., and friends of John M. Parker, the president's host, have joined the party. They brought dogs with them, so that there are now altogether forty-five doge with the president's hunting party. Press headquarters have been set up about a mile from the telegraph station and representative! from all the large agencies are on the ground. The hunt ing dogs have not been working well. For some reason, and despite the fact that two of the beet-trained packs In the country are with the party, the leaders have been disposed to set off on false trail*, and frequently the whole pack has taken different directions, each baying as though It were about to tackle, not a Louisiana, but a 'gristly bear.

Judge Bloodworth had just finished an afternoon yam. His hearers, young lawyer and a newspaper man, were yawning In each other’s faces, to the accompaniment of the scratching of Clerk Simon’s pen. In other words, things were dull and a reposeful at mosphere pervaded .the room. A young man, dressed neatly In black suit with a blue tie, entered and whispered to the judge, producing some papers. Then he retired, but returned with a pretty girl, The three stood up In the middle of the floor—the boy, the girl and the jtidge. The latter said something rap idly, but Impressively. The young man grunted assent. Judge Bloodworth turned to the girl and said something more, to which-the girl said clearly: "Yes. sir.” The boy was fishing In his pockets with his free hnnd, while he held tight ly to the girl with the other. His face was troubled, but at length broke Into a smile, as he brought forth a ring. It was a ratehr tight fit on the girl’s plump finger, but she struggled bravely until It was properly located. •’Well.’’ said the young lawyer, "I don’t know either of them, but he la doing a blame sight better than I have ever been able to do.’i’ , •I* it a runaway?" Inquired the newspaper man of the groom ” .’No, Just a walk-away.” said the very now husband. "George Borden Is my name and this Is er—wall, she was Miss Cora Camp. We are going straight horns to tell the people.” Together they walked quietly out- the girl’s attention divided between the ring, which was evidently a surprise, and her husband; the young man’s thoughts centered upon but one sub ject.

Oct. 9.—Governor Janies K. Vardaman, In an Interview given In reply to President Roosovslt's spsech at St. Louis, strongly denounces the president's policy slid calls him a revolutionist. The governor says: 31 r. Roosevelt Is u past grandmaster In the use of words. With the great French diplomat, he evidently thinks that language 1s to conceal rather than express thought. Within the pile of verbiage there lurk the most pernicious principles and vicious politic* that ever wrecked n republic or destroyed the Khts of the people. "He has preached purity In poll and at the same time accepted from the railroads contributions to corrupt the ballpt. He accepts the office bought for him through corrupt ballot; he takes the ofilre first bought for him by their .criminal combinations and then turns around to preach political honesty for the people who corruptly bought for htm the office he holds. "A wonderful man. Indeed, and more remarkable still Is It to me that the people of Mississippi are caught by the little flattery and platitudes which he Indulges In when he comes on his speaking tours of the South.
