1t is Noted that the Navy De-
partment has made the first large
payment to the South since the
war, very nearly twenty five years
since the struggle ended. The pay
nent is for work done at Richmond
on the machinery for the battle
ship Texas. 1t is worth while to
remember, however, that until
quite recent times the South has
been in ne condition to compete
with the North for contracts, and is
not yet industrially strong enough
to get much Government work, al
though the cruel war has been over
for nearly quarter of a century.

death of the great basss, Carl
Formes, she burst into stage tears,
but when asked to subscribe to the

up the fountains of her grief IN

sorry. She finally agreed to give
$50 if they would put down her
