A SEPARATION.
It was a pity T.ila Roberts was not
contented with her pleasant home, her
piauo, her canary, her serene domestic
life and the good husband fate had
awarded her in the lottery of marriage.
But Lila desired to live her own life
and not so completely merge it into
that of another as to lose her own iden
tity, as she was now in danger of do
ing. Besides, her present mode of liv
ing simply meant to her ambitious spir
it stagnation. Fred Roberts did not
really plan to make any one unhappy,
least of all his owu wife. He was self
ishly following his own inclinations
according to his ideas of the eternal
fitness of things.
After duly considering the matter
and taking no one into her confidence
Lila made a decision. One morning
when Fred was going to business she
asked him to wait a moment, and,
standing on the top stairs of the veran
da, she pinned a knot of purple and
yellow pansies into his buttonhole.
Then because his face was so near she
kissed him.
"Goodby, sweetheart!" she said, with
a little nervous laugh, and he wondered
if the neighbors saw them and if they
would think him spoony.
I.lla's pansies worried Fred all day.
He put them in water to keep them
fresh, as he wanted to wear them
home, a concession that foretold much
good if Lila had only known.
"Pshaw, I'm as sentimental as a wo
man.'" he said to himself. "I dare say
It is dull sometimes for Lila without
me. I'll plan a trip somewhere in busi
ness interests and take her along."
Fred Roberts went home that even
ing with a fresh flower about to bloom
In his soul and I.ila's pansies worn at
his breast. lie was disappointed to find
the door locked and the key under the
mat, an occasional thing when Lila vis
ited her parents.
He at once felt aggrieved. That was
always the way when he had tried to
do a noble deed—there was no one to
help him. Nor was there any supper
for a tired and hungry man. That had
never happened before.
Then be saw a note In front of tha
little French clock which had been one
of their wedding presents. He tore it
open and read:
Dear Fred —Our marriage w«s a mistake. Better
separation than hatred. Do not try to find me, aa
it will be impossible, and no one knows where I
have gone. Ikiieve me, I shall do nothing to
bring a shadow on your name or the one I shall
hereafter bear. Liua.
Fred went Into a fury. The cat fled
appalled from the room, and the cana
ry ceased to whistle and sing and be
came dumb. When the tempest had
abated, he went out and began a Bearch
for his wife.
The search lasted a year. He placed
his business in trusty hands and pre
tended to be traveling In its Interests.
His hair turned iron gray and became
him well. Purpose lines developed in
his face, and the veneering wore from
his character, showing the real sub
stance beneath.
A friend who knew him at this period
of his career said to him:
"The world is full of women. Why
compel an unwilling woman to be your
wife? Accept your liberty and begin
life over again."
"You have never loved," answered
Fred. "I want my wife because—l
love her."
"It would be more to the purpose If
she loved you," retorted his friend,
with that brutal candor which friend
ship permits.
"She does," said Fred, and the two
words contained his whole litany of
faith.
The poor fellow grew as thin as a
shadow. He had long since parted
with both pride and anger. At first
he was a walking arsenal, for he de
termined that if Lila had eloped the
man in the case should die.
But I.ila'B tlltting soon became a mere
personal adventure in his estimation,
much like the running away of a child
from its home, and he was only anx
ious for a chance to forgive and be for
given.
In this mood he reached a hotel in a
umall town, where he studied the regis
ter and asked some questions about the
guests, his invariable habit.
This time there was a mysterlou3
sick woman who had her meals sent to
her room, lie questioned the clerk and
learned that she was young and at
tractive and a lady, but cried a great
deal.
He wandered disconsolately about
the halls and at last ran against a
waiter carrying a tray.
"Where are you going?" he demanded
in a peremptory tone.
"Taking a sick lady's dinner to her,"
said the man.
"Here," commanded Fred, slipping a
coin into the man's hand, "give it to
me. New show me the way." And, fol
lowing the waiter, he was shown into a
darkened room.
A slight form lay dressed on a sofa.
A pale face, scarcely distinguishable In
the gloom, was turned from him, but,
oh, happiness, it was the face of Lila!
And she was weeping.
Fred was at best but a bungling fel
low, and lie bungled now. Smash went
the tray, caught In its descent by n ta
ble, but making a noise that would
have awakened the seven sleepers. Lila
sat up with a shock.
"You careless fellow!" she said Indig
nantly. "My head aches so now that I
can hardly see—Fred!"
"Lila!" And husband and wife wero
In each other's arms, where we will
leave them, ail difficulties being recon
ciled.

The writer once spent a Saturday
afternoon in the study of a dignitary of
the church while the ecclesiastic strug
gled in vain to frame an argument
against gambling to be presented to the
congregation on the morrow. He aban
doned the attempt. Far be It from a
literary journal to assert powers the
possession of which the professionally
religious are fain to disclaim, yet with
submission we even venture to believe
that at least one cogent and effective
argument lies against all forms of gam
bling—one, namely, based on the truth
that wealth, great or small, is a trust
and therefore may not be put In risk.
The moralist may declare that the
gambler gets, or at least wants to get,
something for nothing. Men will laugh.
They know better. The winner gave
his chance to lose for his winnings'
For his losses the winner got his
chance to win. But ask the speculator
whether lie would gamble with trust
funds held by him for orphans and
then suggest to him the one greit truth
that is seizing hold of men's conscience,
the most hopeful sign in these perplex
ed days of social unrest, that men are
trustees of nil that they call their own.

A MUnlmilppl Town Named After m
Revolutionary Hero.
Civilization iu the last century has ,
come out of the chaos of forest and
Ignorance., and where the Indian used
to hold his powwow now stand the
beautiful buildings of the Agricultural
and Mechanical college, and on the Bite
of the forest has sprung up Starkvllle,
I amed for General Stark of the Con
tinental army.
When the Deeming Rabbit treaty was
concluded Sept. 30, 1830, a number of
sturdy South Carolina farmers, eager
to settle where lands were most fer
tile, chose Starkvllle as their future
home. They were well rewarded, for '
more fertile lands are not to be found
In the state of Mississippi than one
finds surrounding Starkvllle. Its in
habitants appreciate this fact, offering,
as they do, land free of taxation for a
period of years to manufacturers seek
ing new sites for the manufacture of
their goods.
There are at present more buildings
going up iu Starkville than at any oth
er time since its settlement. The su
perb courthouse which is now in course
of construction will cost when complet
ed $30,000 and will prove a decided
ornament to the city.
Starkville is also the home of the
Agricultural and Mechanical college,
an institution which is doing much
good for the young men of the stute.
Too much cannot be said for the ad
mirable way in which this college is
conducted. It Is a noble Institution,
fitting young men for practical pur
poses In life. Here one finds every de
partment savoring of the practical,
which is so essential to the future suc
cess of the student. In the agricul
tural department the principles of
stock breeding and feeding and the the
ory of drainage, together witli the Im
provement of soil, Is inculcated in the
minds of the scholars. The depart
ments of horticulture, chemistry, vet
erinary science, mathematics, mechan
ical arts and all of Its other depart
ments are conducted in that able way
which demonstrates that the head mas
ter of each department is thoroughly
conversant with his department.
The textile school building, which is
a model of its kind, is almost complet
ed. In this new department young
men and women are to be educated In
the art of manufacturing textile fab
rics. They acquire here a practical as
well as theoretical and scientific knowl
edge of the art of manufacturing fab
rics made from cotton or cotton and
wool combines, including dyeing, de
signing and drawing.
The machinery and appliances used
in this school are the most modern pro
curable.
The state of Mississippi deserves
high honor for the liberal way lu
which she supports this institution.
Starkville also has two banks—the
Second State bank, with a capital of
sL'7,f>oo, and the People's Savings bank,
capital $3."i,000. She owns her own elec
tric light plant and water works. There
are also an lee factory and an oil mill.
Many blooded cattle are shipped yearly
from this point. The Missouri and Ohio
and tlie Illinois Centra! railroads afford
transportation and freight facilities
which are unequaled at any point. All

A Tired Man.
Once there was a man who complain
ed constantly because It required so
much toil for lilin to make a living. He
declared that lie would rather be buried
than work for a living, and so his
neighbors started out to gratify his
wish. A stranger, seeing them about
to entomb a living man. Inquired why
they were doing so. On being told that
the man complained of having to work
for a living and preferred to be burled,
the stranger's heart was moved, and he
offered to give the complaining man
ten bushels of corn. "Is it shelled?"
asked the discontented soul, and when
Informed It was not he remarked,
"Well, then, let the burial proceed."

rurred after Bull Run, blunders with
far less excuse and with no fortunate
n-sults whatever. Bull Run was good
practice, good Initiation and a valuable
lesson. If a green soldier doesn't flinch
in his first battle, it is no guarantee
that he will not iu the next and per
haps keep It up for a steady thing. But
if he Is not the hero of his Imagination
the first time under fire, if he wonders
why lie ever enlisted, if he braves dis
grace and punishment in the rear sim
ply to get out of sight and hearing of
the enemy who is looking for him him
distinctly and especially among 10,000
others as like him as two coons are |
alike he is just the man for daring
deeds ever after.
Frederick the Great flew from the
first battlefield where he commanded
an army as fast as his horse could car
ry him. lie put miles and miles be
tween himself and danger, but even
Napoleon took off Ills hat in respect for
the courage of the great Prussian who
on countless fields led desperate
charges; the more desperate the better |
he liked it. Courage In battle Is a
strange thing. It has to be put to test,
it grows In a man by exercise. The
best Nicker for Individual courage Is
universal courage. The Hull Run troops
had been told to keep up touch of el
bow, to preserve order in the ranks, to
be steady and await commands. Every
precept was violated that day some
time or all the time, and the army went
to pieces, an awful example ol' waut of
training and discipline. Then the fel
lows who had enlisted for the fun of
the thing kept on retreating until they
crossed the Canada border or were hid
den in the crowds of the great cities,
the army being well rid of them. But
the men of "sand," those who enlisted
to see the thing through If they died
for It, took the lesson to heart and
went back to the A B C of soldiering.
That was the day when the army
schoolmaster took his Innings. A few
officers, a few men, a few companies
and a few regiments had stood with
Spartan firmness until swept from
their feet by the mighty torrent of pan
ic stricken troops. The cool headed and
brave spirits were marked for guides
and teachers, and the army gave high
er promise for the future in the day of
Its humiliation than It had shown while
marching forward with music and ban
ners.
Napoleon said, "I date from Rivoli,"
a battle by no means his first. Some of
the great soldiers of the civil war
might have dated from Bull Run had
they cared to. There was a goodly
company of them there on both sides.
Besides the leaders Johnston and Beau
regard the Confederates had Stonewall
Jackson. Longstreet, Ewell, Early,
"Jeb" Stuart, Wade Hampton, Fitz-
Hugh Lee and others. The Federal ros
ter included McDowell, Sherman, Burn
side, Hunter, Howard, Franklin, Slo
cum, Hunt, Sykes, Keyes and Wads
worth.
One soldier who dated from Bull Run
was General J. B. Rlcketts, the artil
leryman. His was one of the two bat
teries which fought so gallantly for
Henry House hill In sight of the whole
army. The cannoneers gave the volun
teers an example of "dying In your
tracks," and but for an accident a
handful of men might have turned the
tide. All was going well In the battery.
Regiment after regiment of Confeder
ates had been repulsed. Finally a regi
ment clad iu cadet gray marched up on
the flank, and Just as Rlcketts' gun
ners were about to let loose volleys of
canister the chief of artillery declared
that the strangers were friends, and as
some of the Federal troops were in
gray uniforms the artillerymen held
their fire. Battles are decided In a mo
ment. The men In gray had the chance
they were looking for and peppered the
battery at close range, cutting down
every cannoneer and many of the
horses. The lieutenant of the battery
was killed and Captain Rlcketta terri
bly wounded.
Then the battle raged over Rlcketts'
guns. Sherman tried to retake the hllL
Colonel Cameron of the New York
"highlanders" was killed while trying
to clear the battery of enemies. The
Confederat. General Bartow had al
ready been Mlled In a charge upon
these guns, a. \ It was there that Jack
son got the nlck iame "Stonewall." Ills
brigade had not begun to fight yet and
was making a bold front on the edge of
the field. Bartow led the Eighth Geor
gia against the hill and was repulsed.
To steady his retreating men he point
ed to Jackson's line and exclaimed,
"There stands Jackson like a stone
wall."
Slocum was wounded at Bull Run.
He also had the unique sensation of
reading his own obituary in the pa
pers. Colonel Slocum of the First
Rhode Island was killed, and, the New
York Slocum being among the wound
ed, the names were confused Id the dis
patches, and the home papers printed
the usual laudatory notice of Colonel
Uenry W. Slocum. As he promptly tel
egraphed his friends from Washington
no harm was done beyond the Joke on
the newspapers.
Slocum's regiment of New York vol
unteers stood well ufter losing their
leader. It had already made the same
mistake as Rlcketts' battery and ul
lowed a regi.nent In gray to march up
and get in the first volley at deadly
range under the belief that the stmn
gers were friends dressed in gray. This
confusion of uniforms led to frequent
tragedies of tlie kind. Even the Con
federate flag of that date wes liarely
distinguishable In battle from the stars
and stripes, Its colors being red, white
and blue After many changes the bat
tleJlag spanned by a mammoth red
cross was adopted, and combatants
were no longer In doubt as to who was
who.
It all depended upon Individual uiahe
up how the moral phases of the Bull
Run lesson struck home. There was a
great cry for vengeance at first but
people calmed down to a sensible view
and came to the conclusion that If the
I south had the best of the engagement

and, in fact, the boys In blue and the j

the effort to show regard for valor in

the masked batteries. To a green sol

enemy by a curtain of trees or bushes
or any object answering the purpose.
It Is the business of all troops to tight

of fighting masked batteries.
Another bugbear of the plains of Ma

"Jeb" Stuart had a few companies of
mounted men In the vicinity of the
fight, and there was a troop of Virginia
horsemen mounted on black steeds, but

troopers charged the stragglers and 1

Many private yachts are built as aux

ers use them for the entertainment of
their business friends, and they find
that a business deal can be made to
better advantage In a luxuriously fur
nished cabin or on a deck arranged for
the comfort of the visitor than in an
uninviting office. But the majority of
the steam yachts owned by Americans
are maintained at great cost for the
pleasure which may be derived from
their use. While some of the vessels
make long cruises, others are kept near
home, but always ready at short no

Centuries back golf was a pastime of
the royal family, though then usually
played In Scotland. The Stuart family
Mas very fond of the game, and the
first English club was established at
Blackheath in IGOB by James I. His
eldest son, Henry, frequently played
and on one occasion nearly struck by
accident his tutor with a club, where
upon he coolly remarked, "Ilad I done
so I had but paid my debts." Charles
1 was playing golf when ho received
the news of the Irish rebellion. James,
duke of York, afterward James 11, was
another ardent player. Golf Is fre
quently mentioned In ancient Scottish
records and in the fifteenth century
was prohibited because it interfered
with the practice of archery. Strutt
considered it the most ancient game at
