She leaves to mourn her departors a father, grandmother, one sister, four brothers, a host of relatives, schoolmates and friends. She proclaimed a hope in Christ December 21, 1905. When the death angel entered the room, she recognized him as his shadow fell across the floor, she said, "I am going to reeat, all is well, glory." The tender plant so fresh and green in its eternity. Budded on earth, he nourished in heaven.

We extend our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved. "Our Father's will, not yours, be done on earth as it is in heaven." ROSA JONES. It is quite probable that the State of Virginia contains the banner county in the country in egg production for the past year. CIRCUIT Sensational That county is Rockingham, and it is needless to say that her farmers are prosperous and happy. Statistics show that from Rockingham county alone last year more than 80,000 crates of "hen fruit" were shipped to market. This means a total of some 10,800-000 eggs and does not include the many thousands consumed on the farms where they were laid. The value of the product, at the prices received by the producers, reached nearly 80,000, certainly a neat sum to be collected by the farmers of a THE family in our year and some of the children there. It is some of their reaction to do what they are doing now many times in it. Have a great many friends. KISSING MOTHER. Father Gives His Careless Daughter a Quiet Little Talk. A father talking to his careless daughter, said, "I want to speak to you of your mother. It may be that you have notice a careworn look upon her face lately. Of course, it has not been brought there by any act of yours, still it is in your duty to cdase it away. I want you to get up tomorrow morning and get breakfast; when your mother comes and begins to express her surprise, go right up to her and kiss her on the mouth. You can not imagine how it will brighten her dear face. "Besides, you owe her u kiss or two. Away back, when you were a little girl, she kissed you when no one else was tempted by your fever tainted breath and swollen face. You were not as attractive then as you are now. And through those years of childish sunshine and shadows, she was always ready to cure, by the magic of mother's kiss, the little, dirty, chubby hands whenever they were injured in those first skirmishes with COURT Murder Case. the rough old world. "And then the midnight kiss with which she routed so bad and dismal dreams, as she leaned above your restless pillow, have all been on interest these long, long years. "Of course, she is not so pretty and kissable as you are; but if you had done your share of work during she last ten years, the contrast would not be so marked. "Her face has more wrinkles than yours, and yet if you were sick, that face would appear far more beautiful than an angel's as it hovered over you, watching every opportunity to minister to your comfort, and every one of those wrinkles would seem to be bright wavelocks of sunshine chasing each other over her dear face "She will leave you one of these days.

He spoke aliquently on the work of informing slaves in Africa and was so thoroughly applauded by the thousands who heard him. He application for a private audience with Pious X was granted without delay, and the Holy Father conversed with him at great length, asking for details about the international organization about to be founded to work for the elevation of the African races, and blessing his efforts to secure European support for this object. A few days later the Cardinal Secretary of State addressed a long letter to Senator Silvian. warmly encouraging him in the name of the Holy Father to carry on the work for the social elevation of the Negro race. "You say well," writes His Eminence, "that the solemn proclamation of human equality and universal brotherhood was the work of Christ, who as the oldest brother sacrificed His life for all.

The Fourth Quarterly Conference of the New Franklin circuit, St Joseph district, was held January 11-12 with Dr J Will Jackson in the chair. The report showed marked progress in work. The Doctor preached to a fine audience on the 11th and so profound was the impression made that sermon will never be forgotten by those who heard it. At the close of the sermon it was announced that the Dr would deliver a lecture the following evening. He was greeted by a large audience. His subject was "The condition of our people in the South." Never before had this subject been so elaborately discussed here. The speaker was at his best, at times growing eloquent. His lofty description of the accumulated wealth and various resources of our people in the South kindled the feelings of race pride and enthusiasm in the hearts of all who heard him, so much so that the people of this community have new views of the Southern Negro. This being NO.3 Dr Jackson's last year on the district and the last quarter of the Conference year on the circuit, the quarterly conference unanimously passed resolutions of respect to him for his painstaking superintendence over them during the past six years.

His content’on for a class of journalist, who are moved by a desire to do something, ix both just and wise. Conditions now demand a coterie of editors, who will make it theit business to observe conditions and then speak of them intelligently, void of fear. Our racial advancement will be greatly aecelerated, when: we have m:re conscientious editors to unite their energies with consci- entious ministers, teac‘ers, professional men, business men and oth ers of us, who are laboriously pushing to the front, We need, want and must have a journalistic personnel that teaches and preaches the spirit of concord and unity, instead of strife and incredulousness a- mong us. We want editors, who are such because they love the work and mean to make journalism a life work, instead of using it as in medium to lift them intoa job. Any one, who reads Mr. Guy on Journalism, must be convinced of their duty. both as publisher and patron, Public sentiment must be properly trained, if we would succeed admirably. Journalism is the great generator of this potent energy in our racial as wellas our national life. Hence. it is up to us as to wiether we foster health ful sentiment or not. If we throw our Support to the fire-brand, who delights in stirring up racial prejudices, inter-racial animosities and personal bulldoggery, we’ may hope to see the sentiment of the peo- plc ironding towards the shoals of hurtful uncertainty. But, if we will stand by the conservatively conscientious editors, who are construc tionists in work and sentiment, instead of destructionists, we may, indeed, be assured that condftions wii! be perceptably chang:d for the becterment of the nation, state, community and the race.

Alfred C. Mohr, in N, O. Times-Democrat, Awful Experience of a Bridal Pair ESSE STORY of thrilling interest comes A from Cook county, down the north re of Lake Superior, the most north- easterly division of Minnevote. It re- Jates to the home going of a newly-mar- tied couple who were attacked by wolves and had to ride and fight for thelr lives. ‘A kind of Providence seems to have protected the settlers and others who yeside in or have reason to traverse the territory that stretches from Duluth north to the mcfestic Rainy river, for shus far no human being, as far as known, has been killed by these flerce forest tramps, the four-footed outlaws of the wilderness, But at least a dozen men in this terri- tory have thus far this winter bad to spend a night in trees to save themselves from being torn to pleces, Woodswen recognize {t as dangerous to be abroad én the woods after nightfall or before daybreak in the morning. The adven- ‘ture of Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Carleon isthe most exciting story that has come out of the north woods in ayearortwo. ‘Mr. Carlson is a homesteader who has deen holding down claim about ten miles from the shore of Lake Superior. He has been moderately prosperous, and Yiue-eyed Lena Hanson, who got off the boat from Port Arthur, Ont., afew weeks ago to visit friends in Grand Marias, made such an impression on him that he at once decided that life without ber ‘would be dreary and unsatistactory in- deed. Carlson was badly smitten, He easily secured an introduction to her, for all people in Cook county are neighbors and neighborly, and the formalities of polite life in the big cittes have no place there, They live 20 miles apart, but stil they are neighbors, Lena Hanson ad- aired the stalwart young homesteader. He looked Itke a man who could and would protect her. She little knew how soon he would be put to the test. ‘Ther courtship lasted but a few days, and they decided to marry at once. Mr. and Mrs. Carlson set out for the homestead at four o'clock in the after- noon, one hour after they had been qul- etly married. The sky was overcast and night was sure to set in early. Their means of transportation was a home- made sleigh. to which aas attached the work team of their master, The teain aoved with the freedom peculiar to work horses when they are headed toward the darn. ‘At about 5:30 the bride and groom were ‘still three miles from the cabin, and the woods were dark and silent. The con- versation and laughter of the couple were suddenly stilled by the how! of a ‘wolf, Off to the right of the road, about two elty blocks distant, came the omin. ous note again and again, The howls at other wolves in different directions were heard. The cheeks of the bride blanched. She had never heard the how! of a wolf before, but she knew what i was without asking the question. Mr Carlson could see the unusual pailor o her face even in the night. He salé ‘nothing, but whipped the horses into gallop, and, reaching down Into his over eoat, drew forth a heavy revolver, ‘Within five minutes the woods rang with the howls of many wolves, The rst howl had come from the leader o ‘the pack, It was the call to plunder an ‘Rill, 60 well known to the people of th orth woods, The howl of wolves undei such circumstances plants a feeling 0 deep dread into the heart of even thos Br olso has the enst of causlag Sue one Seepare to fight with | calmness mS it ia poaiible, | +- 1 There are other dangers to which met ‘may be exposed that may cause them t: @xt too excited to act to the best ad Vantage, but thers ts tm the pack call o Me wolf a quality that composes mat ‘and makes him caim and effective wher ether dangers may cause bins to lose hii ead at the beginning, “Do you think they will attack us? asked Mrs, Carlson, in tremulous tone of hor husband, “gure,” was the brief reply. “Have you got another revolver? taked the bride, after a pause. Carlso: shook his head. : z “Well, I can arlve, you know, if tha ‘nt be any help.” Carlson flashed & look of pride at hi ‘ide and nodded. “The horses were gal Boptag, and they needed no whip, Th antmals word mad with fear of the des werate brutes that were now gathere be ood girth ahd phon ag hy \ et eight in number, loped saslly behin Siete tet Oastira fs 8 Gop a a ees er . ae: caer re sa, weit MMetS te ag BF sar oy sleigh. It was asort of preliminary leap of investigation, but the other wolves came up olose behind him and all were ready to selse upon the couple. “Take the lines and let the horses guide themselves,” shouted Carlson, as be swung round and faced the pack. His revolver was worthy of the work at hand. It was a 38 caliber weapon of do- pendable make, With this in his right hand, and with his left resting on the back of the seat to steady him, Carlson prepared to fight for the life of his bride and himself, ‘The sleigh rocked peril- ously at times, for the road was rough in places, but the danger of a tipover could not then be even considered. Carlson had scarcely faced the wolves for action when the leader again leaped, this time with a view of seizing the man, Carlson fired and wounded the beast, which fell back howling upon the road. But the leader was not put out of action, He was quickly back in his position, more savage and éager for battle than before. ‘Two of the wolves shot alongside the sletgh to the right, and one took the ‘same position on the left, beside the bride, Carlson quickly shot one of the two on his side, and, reaching over to the other sido, killed the one that threat- ened to leap upon his wife. Tho beasts were a bit disconcertod at this hut came on again, eager for their prey. s Carlson wounded two more of the beasts and then his cartridges were gone, Another wolf tried to leap upon the bride from the wide of the sleigh, but she plied the whip on the beast with such good will that he drew back. Just then the sleigh dashed Into the clearing of the Carlson cabin, and the big homesteader shouted for joy. He thought that the wolves would now dis- perse. But the brutes were hungry and the rapture of the fight was in them, Carlson's dog, brave as its master, now came to the rescue, and he was instantly killed by the first wolf that he attacked. ‘The team stopped in front of the cabin door, as if expecting a cafe haven there, quivering with fear and steaming from thelr exertions, “Out of the sleigh, quick!” shouted Carlson to his bride, He was by her side when she struck the ground, and he kicked the door in. Pushing her in and bidding her close the door, he turned with the revolver clubbed in his left hand and a heavy Pocketknife with open blade in his right. Four wolves attacked him before he could back into the door, which was hie intention, and he hesitated to try.and get into the house for fear the wolves would follow him even there. Besides ‘his team must be protected after having brought htm and bis wife to the cably ‘without accident, Carlson-is @ strong and active man but his strength and knife would not have saved him had it not been for his bride, Suddenly there’ was a crash of glass near the spot where the battle be. tween the man and the wolves was in progress, and instantly the clearing ‘about the house was Lit up with a sheet of flame. The wolves fied {n terror. ‘When Mrs, Carlson fqund herself ir the house she groped about for a weapor with which to help her husband do bat tle with the wolves. In the pooket of he cloak was a box of matches, one of th numerous supplies they had purchase¢ that they had come near forgetting, an she happened to think of it while grop ing in the darkness, _ Lighting a match her eyé fell on 1 lamp. Taking a broom, she emptied th kerosene from the lamp upon the broor and applied a lighted match tot. Then breaking the window of the cabin, th bride climbed through the aperture wit! her flaming torch ahead of her. Th wolves that braved revolver and knife || fled precipitately at the sight of th flaming torch. Carlson's clothing wa torn and he was bleeding from face an hands. But he was still strong and ooo His first words were: “Get the lan | tern, Lena, It's in the corner by th }} table” | Lighting another match, she soon re |) appeared with the lantern, ready for us )| Carlson stabled his team, but Len | helped him, despite his protests.
