While engaged in her morning duties about the house she was startled by soft footsteps advancing up the walk. Turning, she was confronted by the bear, and before she could close the door bruin barred the way. Although terribly frightened she retained her presence of mind, and began to shy various cooking utensils at the beast, which instead of retreating, dodged the missiles and walked into the kitchen. Mrs. Pioot hastily ran to the upper portion of the dwelling and lacked the door. Bruin evidently thinking the kitchen a nursery, began to tos9 the furniture about the room and eat a portion of the victuals remaining in the pantry.

Then the railroad man give in. "I'll tell you," slid the loser, "why I made that bet. In going throngh the train I did not take up a single pass.

Our first pay since the strike came last Saturday and brought great satisfaction eurfy where. f E lima May, infant daughter of Mr. airUffsT Marion Sherborne, died last Toesday, of cholera infantum, aged three months. A very pleasant wedding occured at tho home of Mrs. Schwartz, of near Sprucedale, last Friday evening, at 8 o'clock p. m. The contracting ptrtise were Matthew Stewart, of Spruoedale, and Miss Mary Schwartz The ceremony, Eev. B. M. Ciulter, of Delanoey, officiating, took place in the presence of friends and relatives assembled to do honor to the oc cnion After many hearty congratulations, some tears and many smiles, the dhests sat down to a most snmptuous supper of all the snbstantials, danties and delicacies of the sea ■on, which was greatly enjoyed by all. The handsome young couple are of the beat of our young men and maidens and deserve aa they reoeive the good wishes of their many friends. Long life, happiness, joyous peace and prosperity attend their steps, say we all. Kx Senator Marion C. Butler, of South Carolina, has recently written a letter to the newspapers on the race problem In which he figures It out in this way: "I am no apologist for lawlessness at the hands of any class, but public meetings and denunciation will not cure the disease. It is in the blood and will break ont somewhere else. You must strike at the root to eradicate it. The poor white men who have to earn their bread by the sweat of their faces, cannot compete with cheap negro labor. To attempt to do so, implies their degradation and ultimate destruction or expatriation. One race must go to the wall, and with the kindest feelings of good will toward the negro, I must side with my own race. Two races cannot live together in peace, on terms of equal, civil and political rights, and the sooner we realize that, the better for both races "The separation of the races is the only solution of the terrible problem. It is very easy fos Tillman and others to denounce the lawtiessnesB of the 'one gallus, wool hat crowd.' Let Mr. Tillman and those who join him aa the guardians of the negro put thenMtfves in the poor white man's walk between plow sun-np till sun-down in compeUtMbwith negro labor at |s a month, of meal and three pounds ofbacon a week." That the poor white man ought not to be expected to compete with negro labor at $s a month, is certain. And the same may be laid of the negro. One of the chief complaints of the Sonthern negro is that the "po' white trash" underbid him in the labor market. Low wages are in this case a cnrae to both races, and it is an open question which ought to leave. As the negroerdid not come here voluntarily, bat were brought by force and sold into slavery, we have no moral right to force them to get ont. How wonld it do for the whites to move ont of Mississippi and leave the State entirely to the negroes? The whites of the Sonthern States in which they are outnumbered by their colored brethren can settle the Negro problem for themselves by coming North. The homely old saying, "If yon don't like the stink, get out of the tan-yard," will apply in this case. Arriving Daily at Our Store. New Pall Footwear, HX T A L1 D Mens' and Boys' • J .

That the poor white man ought not to be expected to compete with negro labor at $s a month, is certain. And the same may be laid of the negro. One of the chief complaints of the Sonthern negro is that the "po' white trash" underbid him in the labor market. Low wages are in this case a cnrae to both races, and it is an open question which ought to leave. As the negroerdid not come here voluntarily, bat were brought by force and sold into slavery, we have no moral right to force them to get ont. How wonld it do for the whites to move ont of Mississippi and leave the State entirely to the negroes? The whites of the Sonthern States in which they are outnumbered by their colored brethren can settle the Negro problem for themselves by coming North. The homely old saying, "If yon don't like the stink, get out of the tan-yard," will apply in this case. Arriving Daily at Our Store. New Pall Footwear, HX T A L1 D Mens' and Boys' • J .
