From the Southern clime, where the gentle wind • Comes filtered through orange groves, Where the heart can always Its pleas ure find. And Love like a fairy roves. - I can always listen and hear the song That maddens my blood like wine; The battle of right and the tale of wrong— The story is yours and mine. Tis the new, new' song of an old, old creed, As I listen. I hear from the grave^ernoon. the night _ The voices of those who died For the cause they lost—be it wrong "TIs the harvest of toil and pain: The story of hearts that were born to bleed, The martyrs of greed and gain. a • p or, right— Warriors both true and tried. Tis the deareBt song, this old. old tale. ■ That my memory can bver know: , And oft when the red in the west grows pale. And the night winds softly blow.

THE MYSTERY OF I I The Dally News Is In receipt of a < letter from Mr. F. S. Nobles, the gen tleman who was reported dead and as having suicided in Jackson. The letter shows that Mr. Nobles Is very much alive, and the Jackson Evening News states that he is at work in a Jackson restaurant and not only disclaims the writing of the letter reporting his sui cide, but also states emphatically that he has no idea who could have written It. The name signed to the letter was "L. L, Smith," and he requested the publication of the article and also that a paper be sent to Mrs. Nobles on a rural route out of Hattiesburg. The Dally News soon ascertained that the reported suicide was a fake and so STOCKHOLDERS OF M. J. & H. C. MEET IN LAUREL ON JULY 22 The stockholders of the Mob"c. Jackson and Kansas City are to have a meeting In Laurel July 22, at which time the various extensions of that road that have been discussed wilt come up for consideration and, possi bly, determination. Speaking of this matter the Jackson Evening News of yesterday says: Pursdant to its plans to construct a new north and south trunk line, with the southern terminate at New Orleans and Mobile, with probably a spur line to Gulfport or Pascagoula, the Mobile, Jackson and Kansas City road is get ting In readiness to perfect Its final organization under the new charter. Secretary, Harvey C. Snyder, of the Gulf and Chicago road, acquired sev eral years sigpe by the Mobile, Jack son and Kansas Cfty system, has called the stockholders to convene at Laurel on Wednesday, July 22, when a new board of directors will bo elect ed, and the agreement for the adop tion of the charter of the New Orleans, < stated in publishing the jetter from "L. L. Smith " There is some mystery. attached to the writing of the letter and comment ing on the matter the Jackson Evening News says: "Mr. Nobles claims not to know any body named L. L. Smith, and no such party Is known at the Barrett hotel, where the suicide ' Is alleged to have taken place, and from which place he is supposed to have written the mys terious letter. "That there was some motive not strictly legitimate for the writing of the letter Is certain, and whether It was written by Mr. Nobles himself or by some one else is still in doubt." Phone f*o. 740. Mobile and Chicago Railroad Company brought up for ratification. Immediately after this action is tak en the board of directors of tho new company will be .hetd, and It is ex pected that a formal announcement relative to the construction plars will Immediately follow, nouncements have, been made as to the route that will be fol lowed In extending, the line northward from Middleton, Tenn., to Chicago, and the announcement will doubtless con firm the route heretofore suggested, Unofficial an heretofore A NEW FRONT.
