The Wyeth City Company HAS UNDERTAKEN TO BUILD A MANUFACTURING TOWN IX "MARSHALL COUNTY, ALA. Montana and join two sisters, whd reside tlirrc. It is said that the two daughters, who reeidu in Montana and ale mar-' ritid, have been anxious to have their mother come to them she declines to go. Quite recently seqeral charitable citizens of Cullman providod actual necessities of life for bur when ill and had a physioian to attend bet. She can bo seen daily at the postoffice on arrival of mail, anxiously inquiring for expected mail from "my son Joe who is kimwn to everybody ia America," He Wrote "'Dixie." Perhaps the Southerner does not live who has not had his pulses quick' ened and the depth of his patriotism stirred by the inspiring strains of "Dixie." Yet there are few, doubtless, who know when, where, or by whom the Southland's stirring song; was written.

For these it may be interesting to recall that Dan Emmett-, the first negro minstrel this country ever produced, was the composer of Dixie. He was the leader of the firs; corny pany ever put ofl the stage for delini-nation of the picturesque life uf the southern negro, and is the author of several other popular airs, among, them being "Old Dan Tucker." It is interesting, also, pathetically suggestive, too, to know that Emmett is still alive and, if not in absolute want, yet in poverty. Kate Field, in her "Washington," tells of having met him not long ago. In his hand he carried a great staff; his coat was' tied about his waist with a piece of rope and on his arm was a market basket. He looked like a Money has been raised for a monument to the author of "Home Sweet Home." Funds are now being collected for the man who vrote "Eotb-leenHavourneen."

Do not let the singer Walt deserved praise too long, Why should one who thrills your heart Lack the joy you may Impart? If you hear a prayor that moves you, liy Its huniblo. pleading. tone, Join It, Do not let the seeker Row before his Ood alone. Why should not your brother share The strength of "two or three" In prayer? If you see tho hot tears falling, From a brother's weeping eyes, 1 Wiiu-e them. And by kindly sharing Own your kinship with the skies.

Why should any one be glad When a brother's heart Is sad? If a silvery laugh goes rippling Through the sunshine on his face, Spare It. 'Tls the wise man's saying For both grief and Joy a place. There's health and goodness In the mirth In which an honest laugh has birth. If your work is made more easy By a friendly, helping hand, 6ay no. Speak out brave and truly, Ere the darkness veil the land.

'It's nothing to me," the boauty said With a careless toss of hor pretty head; "The man Is weak If he can't refrain From the cup you say Is fraught with pain." It was something to her In after years, Wheu her eyes were drenched with burning tears, And she watched in lonely grlof and dread, And startled to hear a staggering tread. 'It's nothing to me," the mother said, "I havo no fears that my boy will tread The downward path of sin and shame, And crush my heart and darken my name." It was something to her when her only son From the path of life was early won, And madly cast in the flowing bowl A ruined body and a shipwrecked soul. "It's nothing to me," the merchant said, As over the ledger he bent his head; "I'm busy to-day with the tare and tret, And have no time to fume and fret." It was something to him when over the wire A message came from a funeral pyre A drunken conductor had wrecked a train. And his wife and child were among tho slain. "It's not hing to me," the young man cried; In his eye was a flash of scorn and pride "I heed not the dreadful things you tell; I can rule myself, I know full well." mi led all mm raEDus is years inUE PROPERTY OF.

Tbe Effect of One of Col. Morrison's Speeches on a Bride. They are tell ng a good ons tipon the political Rialto in connection with the talk about Col. William R. Morrison getting a cabinet portfolio.

Col. Morrison, as everybody out west knows, was a strung Douglas man in I860. He stumped the State for Douglas and advised the girls of Illinois to use every effort in their power to make their sweethearts vote for him. Among his listeners was a young lady who was engaged to be married. Her intended was a violent pertisau ofLinclon.

They were married the day ofter Col. Morrison had made his speech to the girls of the State, and went to Chicago on their honeymoon. After retiring to their room the young husband had occasion to go down stairs for something. He returned about 11 o'clock to find the door locked. He rapped loudly.

"Who's there?" asked a voice from within, which he recognized as that of his wife. "It's me, your husband, dear," replied the groom. "What's your politics?" "I'm a Lincoln man, and don't you forget it" "Well," she said determinedly, "No Linclon man can come in here." The groom swore softly to himself, but he was too strong a partisan to take water. He went down stairs and smoked about an hour, and then returning again knocked loudly on the door. "Who's there?" asked the wife.

"I'm your husband Henry open tho door and be quick about it." "I tell you," cam back defiantly, "no Lincoln man can get into this room to-open the door and be quick about it." Heiiry retired in disgust, and spent the night in the barroom He returned at 10 o'clock the next morning and knocked very softly on the door. "Who's there?" was asked. In low and subdued tones the reply was given: Henry, your husband and about as good a Douglass man as there is in tho State of Illinois." He was admitted. Ex. True as Preaching.

When you want a newspaper favor you strike your "home paper," don't you? If j'ou want your town boomed, and your property increased in value, you expect your home paper to do it for nothiug, don't you? Yet you kick because jour home paper hasn't as much reading matter as a city paper, don't you? And you preclude the home paper from thinking the town is agood place for it by not giving it sufficient patronage, don't you? You often sneak off to some other town to get your job work done, to save a few cents, don't you? You are mighty free about telling what a good thing for a town a home paper is, but are backward when it comes to helping that paper with the cash, ain't you? You are mighty anxious to have the home paper spend money with you, but are careful to spend as little as possible with it, ain't you? Do you think a publisher can live on promises and pay his bills with thettame material? Do you think he can forever digest the fact that his paper is a "good thing for the country," and not receive anything in return? He can't do it, con he? Joe's Mother. The Montgomery Journal says: "Mrs. Mulhattou, provision and support, 2." This Is one of the numerous items of. the county poor house disbursements by the county treasurer since July 1, 1892, and published in the Akba Tribune. The Mrs.

Mulhatton above referred to is mother "Joe" Mulhatton, who has gaii.ed the notorious sobri quet of the "great AmtiTt fto liar." She has many years been a resident of Cullman, and is perhaps 75 yean, of ag. She lives alone in a small house ia tlw city, opposite tho Catholic church, but is said to be a Methodist Until perhaps two years ago, Joe contributed something toward the support of his mother.

When tbe Hon.

Peter Turney took tbo oath of office at Lia home at Wolf Crag, and signed the obligation that bound him to tbe service of tbe State, he closed tbe on a chapter of our history which contains little of honor, but much of instruction. When John Price Buchanan went into office as governor of Tennessee he was borne upon a wave of popular passion and predjudico, aided by the power of a wonderfully compact and well-disci plined organization. His nomination was not tho expression of the will of a majority of the people, but of tbe power of a secret political or ganization whose discipline and unquestioning obedience to the secret orders of demagogue leaders made it more than a match for the unorganized maioritv. Still there was a popular sentiment behind it respectable in numbers, determined and enthusiastic. Many weak men and time-serving politicians bent at once to the storm and sought place and honor by joining in a movement which their intelligence and their consciences condemned.

Others cowered at a safe distance, gave timid counsels and threw up their handi in cravern terror whenever a voice was heard bold enough to assail the organized folly and demogogy thnt was bringing shame and dishonor upon the State. It was then that Peter Turney came to the front as the representative and ths leader of the nnterrified, hard-hitting, Upper- Case Democracy. His ringing letter awoke a responsive echo in every true Democratic heart. "Put none but Democrats on juird" was a lugle blast that rang throughout Tennessee. ind the result was victory, complete and overwhelming.

And the moral is tlus never fear to trust righteous cause to the honest judgement of the people. The demagogue is the man who underestimates and mistrusts tbe people, and fears to tell them the If he finds them in the wrong way he adopts their error and seeks to lead them still further astray. He may succeed for a time; but truth will triumph, of ftsrowu power, if it have no and when it is re vealed tbe demagogue falls, never to rise again.
