The demon strations proved that the Father of liis Country, is still “first in the hearts of his countrymen!.” The Oklahoma boomers have had time to realize that it was “better to have borne the ills they had, than to have rushed into those they knew not of.” The horrors they have endured from the whirlwind of red sand, the scarcity of water, and the knavery of the sharpers, who have constantly preyed upon them, could never have been remotely considered in their dreams of the promised land. The small pox is the lastest horror and has add¬ ed ten-fold to the misery and terror of their situation. For the Hamilton Journal. CURRENT EVENTS.

MUSIC. it is related of a celebrated musi¬ cian traveling with a caravan through the Arabian desert that he got out to walk for exercise, and had his violin with him. Stopping ta tune it, he got considerably behind. On looking up he beheld a huge African lion rapidly approaching. The happy thought struck him as his only weapon of de¬ fease, to trytho power of music. He commenced to play, and continued to play, walking backwards until the watchman of the caravan discovered the situation and stopped the caravan. The lion with all hi? terrible feroc ity was charmed with music and show ed no disposition to harm the musi cian, keeping at a respectful distance, When the music stopped and he saw the caravan which he seemed not to have seen before, he scampered off, looking hack occasionally as if expect¬ ing more music. The musicians life was saved by the power of music. “Music has a charm 'Sir those who mourn And spend their nitruts in sorrow, 1 It brings ilie star of -lory bourne And guilds the davji of morrow. The concord of sweet sounds vibrates through all nature and if the “music of the spheres be a figure of speech it carries in symbol a great truth. Melody and harmony turbed pervade all animated nature and accomplishes ends hardly possible otherwise. A hardened criminal had been condemned to die for murder, was frequently visited by a minister, who talked and prayed with him and urged the peril of his condition. It had no appreciable effect on him and the case seemed hopeless. Near by the jail lived a good Christian widow who made a living by sewing, she was a good singer. After a hard days work, in earnest gratitude she sang one of the sweet songs of Zion. The sweet sound penetrated the walls of the jail and reached the ears of the man. It was the song that his moth¬ er had sung in the days of his youth and innocency and the flood tide of memory passed over that darkened soul and brought the tears which noth i a g else could.

ONE DOLLAR A YEAR, STRICTLY IN ADVANCE. | For Thb Journal. | EDITORIAL CORHliSI»#SOE»f!F.. Atlanta, Ga., April 25.—The re ad ers of the Journal have not heard from me as often as I thought they would when I left home. I have de sired often to write but there has been alvvays something to prevent. If there is anything I prefer more than any thing else in the way of amus -ment it is to express my opinions to the read¬ ers of the Journal all of whom I count my personal friends. To-night I went to the meetings of the Confederate Veterans Association. I am not a veteran, but slipped in as a newspaper reporter. I was one of those secessionist who did all they could to bring about war and then staid at home. But I am proud to say that I raised a company and drill¬ ed them faithfully although the oldest member was not old enough by ha f to go to the front, and no nine year boy ever wished so much to be a man as I did that I might take the field in defence of southern rights and con¬ stitutional liberty. The veterans meeting to-night was to arrange for memorial services to morrow. The veterans too had the pleasure of hearing and shaking hand with General W. H. F. Lee, the sec ond son of the immortal Robert E Lee. General W. H. F. Lee is more portly than the pictures indicate his fa her to have been, but to me he pre¬ sented a striking resemblance to the pictures of his illustrious sire. He was introduced by Judge Calhoun and re¬ ceived with the confederate yell. He spoke briefly, but eloquently and with deep feelings of the pleasure it afford¬ ed him to meet the Confederate sol¬ diers and to be with the men who had achieved for the Confederacy a fame that must ever he read with a feeling of pride as long as time shall last. Col. Wm. L. Jones was called for and responded in a speech befitting the occasion. He spoke of the rise of the honored guest of the evening from “high private in the rear rank" to Major General of Cavalry and proved that it was by force of the military genius inherited from his great sire, illustrating the past with several incidents in the life of the souths great hero and his worthy son. Nepotism was not among the faults of K. E. Lee. The royal arch masons have been m session here this week and Col. J. M. Mobley, of Hamilton, who stands pre-eminent with^ the fraternity has been in attendance. He reports the session as harmonious and the treat ment of the body as hospitable in the extreme. J. L. D. FINGERS CAME OFF. My little son, five years old, was afflicted with a dcsease lor which the doctors had no name. The nails came off his finger, and the fingers came off his hands up to the middle joint. For thre^ years he has suffered dreadfully, and has taken quantities of medicines. He is now getting we 1 under treatment of Swift’s ^ pecific John Deihl. Ind., J,<n. i 2 1889 . REMARKABLE CASE.
