I cannot cill ’hee beautiful,
I ca. not call H e fair.
Give praise unb uuded tuthiue eyes.
The co or of ihy hair.
Pronounce th, form a Kobe’s,
Tny voice of match c*? tone.
But know thou art a woman.
And lovable, my owu.
I cannot see the other
Thau what thou rt, for though
I felt disposed to flatter thee.
Thou wouldst not have it so;
Thy charms are of ho divinity’s—
Humanity-alone
Hath multiplied the gifts that make
Thee lovable, my own.
But if thou be not beautiful.
And if thou be not fair.
The loving heart thy bosom shield*,
And all the goodness there,
First won my admiration.
And truly have 1 grown |
To know that more than beauty makes
The lovable, my own.
Let others measure happiness
By charms that please the eye;
I sought for gifts more lasting
Than beauty, therefore, I,
In seeking found thee, and thou art
(No queen on beauty’s throne)
A woman only to be loved
As 1 love thee, my own .

Another delightful concert at Shorter
college on Friday night. One of the
features of this occasion excited great
interest, the first appearance in public
of several pianists, vocalists, violinists,
and elocutionists, and the success which
crowned their efforts.
Here is the program:
Piano, Rigandon, Ross—Mies Florida
Seay.
Vocal, Twilight, Clowe —Miss Ethel
Prince.
Violin, Tannhanser, Wagner Singelle
—Miss Tommie McConnell.
Recitation, The Duel, Eugene Field-
Miss Bessie Reynolds.

Sallle Belle Duggan.
Piano, Czardas, No. 3. Michels—Miss
Annie Bryan.
Recitation, When the Honeymoonjis

Violin, Gavotte, Herman—Miss

Miss Mattie Hamilton
Vocal. Baby Sleep. Dennie—Miss Lil
lian Foster.
Recitation. Seein’ Things, Field—
Miss Alice Myars.
Recitation, Burglar Bill—Miss Alice

Among the pianists the noticeable
features were the rare precision of Miss
S ay; the pearly touch of Miss McDon
ald, the dash and the delicacy of Mds
Bryan’s performance,'- both essential in
Michelle’s Cz irdos; and the free and
graceful style of Miss Foster. Miss Sal
lie Belle Duggan’s playing displayed
wonderful improvement; her perform
ance was characterized by neatness of
reading and rythmic expression.
The recitations one and all were highly
enjoyable and creditable to the industry
and tax nt of the girls, and the earn' st
ness and ability of their accomplished
teacher. Miss Selman.
Miss Foster, Duggan, Houzeal and
Prince, the debutants in the vocal class
excised the usual amount of notice and
interest. All the voices showed very
pleasing possibilities, and revealed earn
©fitness and faithfulness. These young
ladies may revel in he hope of winning
at no very distant <i«te. the approval of
a Rome audience.
Her technique is good, aad she render
ed the prayer with expression; revealed
the beauty of the evening song and per
formed the [finale veiy brilliantly. The
careful training of her teachers was very
evident. One of the s rung point 3 of Prof
Bucbantm’s teachings is the great atten
tion he pays to bowing.
The most charming feature of the eve
ning was, to many of the audience, the
performances on tl evi in. Both violin
pupils reflected grc. t ere * r n their care
ful and competent eache , Professor
Buchannan. Miss Rons.. uttr-icud atten
tion not only by her goou >ulouatlon,
but by the smoothness of her n n s pro
duced by her fine bowing. The only en
core of the eveaing was given to
Miss McConnell who delighted and
surprised the audience by her skillful
playing of Tannhanser.
The smoothness and beauty of his
tones shows how throughly he is mas
ter of this important point, and the
work of his pupils proves his ability
to impart knowledge. The violin cer
tainly scored a success on Friday
night, and proved that the soul of
music dwells in its strings.
Misses Annie and Leila Hill will en
tertain quite a number of their young
lady frien's at a lunch on Thursday
morning from eleven until two Those
so fortunate as to receive an invitation
will spend the time most pleasantly.
A CHRISTMAS BALL.
’Way out in western Texas,
where the Clear Forks
waters flow:
Where the cattle are a-browsin
an the Spanish ponies
grow;
Where the northers come a
whistlin fmm beyond the
“neutral strip,”
An the prairie dogs are sneezin
ez if they had the grip;
Where the coyotes come a
howlin round the ranches
A
after dark,
An the mocking birds are singin tu the lively
medder lark;
Where the possum, an the badger, an rattle
snakes abound,
An the monstrous stars are winkin o’er a
wilderness profound;
Where lonesome, tawny prairies melt into airy
streams,
While the Double mountains slumber with
heavenly kind in dreams;
Where the antelope is grazin an the lonely
plovers call—
It was there that I attended the Cowboys'
Christmas ball.
The town wuz Anson City, ole Jones’ county
seat.
Where they raise Polangus cattle an wavln,
whiskered wheat;
Where the air is soft an bannny, an dry an
full uv health.
An the prairies is explodin with agricultural
wealth;
Where they print The Texas Western, that Alec
McCann supplies
With news an yarns an stories uv most amaziu
size;
Where Frank Smith pulls the badger on know
in tenderfeet,
An Democracy’s triumphant an powerful hard
to beat;
Where lives that good old hunter, John Milsap,
from Lamar,
Who “used ter lie the sheriff back cast in
Paris, sah”—
’Twas there, I say, at Anson, with the lively
Widder Wall,
That I went to that recepshun, the Cowboys'
' Christinas ball.
The boys had left the ranches an cum to town
in piles;
The ladies, kinder scatterin, hed gethered in
for miles,
An yet the place wuz crowded, ez I remember
well—
’Twuz got fur the occashun at the Morning
Star hotel.
The music wuz a fiddle an a lively tambourine,
An a viol “cum imported,” by the stage from
Abilene.
The room wuz togged out gorgeous with mis
tletoe an shawls,
An candles flickered frescoes around the airy
walls.
The wimmin folks looked lovely. The boys
looked kinder treed
’Till the leader commenced yellin: “Whoa,
fellers! Let’s stampede!”
An the music started, sighin an a-wailin
through the ball,
Ez kind uv introduction to the Cowboys’
Christmas bull.
This leader wuz a feller that cum from Swen
son’s ranch—
They called him Windr Billy, from Little
Dead Man’s Branch.
His rig wuz kinder keerless—big spurs an high
heeled boots.
He hed the reputation tliet comes when fellers
shoots.
His voice wuz like a bugle upon the moun
tain’s height.
His feet were animated an a mighty movin
sight.
Thon ho commenced to holler: “Noow, fellers,
stake yer pen I
Lock horns tu all them heifers an rus*le ’em
like men I
Salute yer luvly critters! Neowswing an let
’em go I
Climb the grapevine round ’em—all bands do
cedol
Ye mavericks jine the round up—Jost skip her
waterfall! ’
Huh, hit wuz gettin active—the Cowboys'
Christmas ball.
—Larry Chittenden, Poet-Ranchman.
THE SPECTATOR.
— r ■
Everybody about Nashvills is ac
quHinred with “Uncle Bob,” the ven
erable colored foreman on the Belle
Meade stock farm. He has been for
seventy years the most faithful of
servants. During the war he was
shot by Federal soldiers for resisting
the arrest of bis master, Gen. Hard
ing. His manners are those of a stately
old fashioned gentleman.
When President and Mrs. Cleve
land were in Nashville a few years
ago, they were the guests of General
Win H. Jackson, the present owner of
the Belle Meade estate. As a matter
of course the fine horses were brought
out for the great lady to admire. Her
fancy was especially taken by
“Iroquois” said t" be the handsomest
horse in the world, and she exclaimed:
“Isn’t he proud!” Lifting his bat
with the finest courtesy imaginable,
Uncle Bob replied: “Madam, he
knows who's looking at him.” Was
there ever a more delicate compli
ment?’’
In the elections two years ago in
Kentucky a hot race was on, in one of
the districts, for solicitor. The op
posing candidates were two Kentucky
colonels, one was Col. Gibson, the
other Col. Davis. Ata public speak
ing both were billed for a speech and
Col. Gibson opened. His eloquence
was powerful, and convincing, and
while he spoke it looked as if every
thing was going his way.
At the close of bis speech he refer
red to bis war record and made a
touching auu beautiful appeal for the
soldier vote. This gave his opponent
a weapon which he used on Col. Gib
son with a vengeance as will be seen
by the following reference of Col.
Davis to his war record:
“I was boro, my fellow citizens, on
Februrary 16, 1862, the day Fort Donald
son was surrendered, and just as the
echoes of the guns were dying out along
the Mississippi. The white flag was ’run
up.’ I saw that my services were needed
and immediatly leaned into arms I join
ed the infantry and, with the rebel yi 11
on my lips, attacked the breastworks. I
enlisted for three score and ten years, or
until the rebellion was put down. The
second summer of my campaign were‘ty
ing days; but I gritted my teeth (what
‘ew I had) and remarked that I would
fight it out on this line if it took all the
summer. Gen. Grant afterward heard of
this remark and appropriated it. Though
I was pressed hard by the foe, yet I never
surrendered, but, reinforced by paregoric
and vermifuge, I came off victorious and
live to tell of the battles I fought and
victories won. Col. Gibson appeals to
those who wore the gray to stand by him
but I make no such partisan appeal. It
matters not to me whether you wore the
blue or the gray, but to every c< mr ide
who wore a napkin I appeal to stand by
me.” Frank T. Reynolds.
