Mr. J. A. J. Rice brought into our office
a few days ago something of a curiosity.
It is a humming bird's nest, and few people
have ever seen one. It is certainly a
y wonderfully constructed nest, and those
who so desire, can see it at our office.
Mr. Rice found the nest last year, but it
had five eggs in it and he would not remove
it as long as the birds used it.

Crops in this immediate section are
needing rain very badly. Never have we
seen cotton deteriorate as much as it has
in the past two weeks. Many fields that
were simply beautiful prospects a week
or so ago are now yellow and the fruit is
falling off to a great extent. It is a safe
estimate that cotton has fallen off twenty
per cent from two weeks ago in this section.
DISSOLUTION OF FIRM.
Messrs. Bellinger & Townsend Dissolve Well
Known Law Firm.
The announcement has been made of
the dissolution of the law firm of Bellinger
& Townsend, composed of the former
Attorney General Bellinger and the
present Assistant Attorney General
Townsend. These gentlemen have been
associated together in the practice of law
for more than a decade, and are otherwise
most intimately connected. The dissolution
is only made because the duties of
the assistant attorney general are such as
prevent Mr. Townsend from giving necessary
attention to business of the firm.
Both gentlemen will continue the practice

DID JOHN HAY WRITE
"BREADWINNERS?"
Authorship of Anonymous Novel
Attributed to the Statesman.
WHY HIS SAME WAS WITHHELD.
. Late Secretary of State, It la Said,
Could Not Have Admitted Authorship
When Alive, as the Work
Was Directed Agralnst Labor I'nionw-Epigrami
Which Reflect Author's
Views on Life, Politics, Labor
Unions and Society.
Semiofficial announcement was made
recently that the late Secretary of State
John Hay was the author of "The
Breadwinners," the mysterious and
much discussed novel which twentythree
years ago was the reigning literary
sensation, says the New York
Herald. Its authorship has been a puzzle
to the world of letters ever since
its publication, and every few months
the question has been raised anew.
Those who were In touch with the publishers
of the work, both as a serial
and in book form, have never denied
that Mr. Hay was the author.
Remarks of Henry M. Alden, the veteran
editor of Harper's Magazine and
one of the foremost authorities on
American literature, leaves no question
as to the authorship. Mr. Alden has
for many years been connected with
the firm of Harper & Brothers, the
publishers of "The Breadwinners."
"I have not," said Mr. Alden the other
day, "the absolute evidence at hand
to show that Mr. Hay wrote The
Breadwinners,' but I think that the
Herald can make no mistake in saying
that he did. For several years I
have understood so, and I think there
can be no question of it"
Colonel George B. M. Harvey, the
head of the corporation of Harper &
Brothers, Is m Europe. Frederick A.
Duneke, the manager of the house, was
out of die city, and it was Impossible
to communicate with him.
Intimations were given a few months
ago that an edition of the book which
Mr. Hay would father and revise was
to be published. There was a story to
the effect that his literary executors
might direct the publication under his
name.
From the nature of its theme It was
hardly to be expected that Mr. Hay,
while In political life, would consent
to be identified with The Breadwinners,"
which sharply criticises the
a.?i. A. i.k.. rrvw,

appeared in the latter part of 1883 In
serial form in the Century Magazine,
and the editor at that time, Mr. Richard
Watson Glider, is on record as
saying that the name of the author
was withheld from him. "The Breadwinners"
was published early In Jannary,
1884, In book form, and the Harpers
paid die royalties to an attorney
whose name and address hare also
been kept secret
Especial timeliness was given to the
book because it appeared shortly after
a series of strikes and labor troubles.
The city In which the action is laid in
Buffland and the characters portrayed
In such a lifelike manner have been
identified as living In Cleveland and
Buffalo. In view of the fact that Mr.
Hay knew Cleveland thoroughly and
married a daughter of Amasa Stone,
a wealthy resident of thgt place, it is
likely that the Forest City was the
original of Buffland.
The chief merit of the book is in its
epigrams, which afford, In the opinion
of many persons, indisputable evidence
that John Hay was the author.
A reading of the much discussed
novel shows scores of those ripples
and flashes which give such an epigrammadcal
quality to- the authorized
writings of John Hay. Here are some
of the tilings taken from "The Breadwinners"
which have his hall mark j
"I do not care now tney loot," ne
would say. "They probably look as
I they talk, 'without form and void.'"
"She carries herself like a duchess/'
I was going to say, "but the only duchess
I ever knew was at Schwalbech,
and she was carried in a wicker bandcart"
'"The leader of the opposing forces
| was a batcher, one Jacob Metzger,
who had managed the politics of the
ward for years. Be sold meat on
business principles, so as to get the
most of a carcass, and he conducted
his political operations in the same
way."
"She. felt as though she bad found
her mission, her true trade, which was
to walk in gardens and smell hothouse
roses."
Here Is the way the writer of "The
Breadwinners" refers to Mr. Samuel
Steeoy:
"Sam was such-a nullity that she enjoyed
his company almost as well as
being alone "
; "Sam smoked Us cigar with the air
of pouts fatigue with which one listens
to abstract statements at moral obligations;"
"Steeny, although a breadwinner (a
member at a Socialistic organization
of the name), waa not sufficiently im1
? A*. ?~ InK^. 4M
pressed wuu uw w iuu^s ui wimi w
throw down his hammer and saw."
Here Is a sample of the author'f?
opinions erf labor leaders:
"There were fewer shops closed In
the back streets; there were not so
many parties of prowling apostles of
plunder going about to warn, laborers
away from their work. Besides the
agitators of the town, several had
come In from the neighboring places,
and they were preaching with fervor
and perspiration from street corners
and from barrel heads In the beer
bouses the dignity of manhood sad
the overthrow of tyrants."
