DEAD TREES IN THE CITY.

few DAYS ago we called attention TO the
advisability Of planting on the line of our
sidewalks only varieties OF trees that were
lone-lived and not easily broken by the
violence Of storms As the result OF planting
40 many naples there is q great inequality IN
the growth of our city trees. which lessons the
impression Of beauty which they would other
wise make. not to speak Of the diminution OF
shade from their boughs.
Another serious mistake that has been made
consists in the fact that the trees are in TOO
many instances planted too closely together
The result has been a marked Disagreement
in their,growth in many places. Many, too ID
consequence Of being so crowded, die. IN
every part of the city there are to be observed
to-day large trees that are dead rom TOP 10

mentioned.

dead tree at the northeast corner Of Main and
Adams street Such trees as these, with not
one particle OF NltalltJ III ihrhi' nhoolN 10 IT,
moved at once Not only do they constitute
very unsightly objects but they grow moro
and more dangerous the longer they are sui
fered to remain where they are. 1t is only
question of time for n high wind to hurl them
or their larger limbs to the ground with the
ever-present risk Of crushing man and beast
in their fall.
Why our municipal authorities should per-
sist in neslecting duty go palpable and I'M
denable it is hard to explain with any salts
faction. In their failure to take prompt
measures to remove these dead trees they are
exposing themselves to a criticism which very
properly grows the longer the neglect
continues.
We would call the attention Of the Mayorto
the ACCESSIBILITY of directing that all the dead
trees in the corporate limits shall be cut down
at once as a step called for by the several
considerations upon which we have been
dwelling. In doing so he will be conforming
TO the wishes of all our citizens who either
have an eye to the appearance of our streets
or are solicitous as TO the safety Of the iDnum-
cradle persons who are constantly passing
under these dead trees.

TIE DAVIS MONUMENT.

The Chamber of Commerce yesterday in
augurated the laudable work Of raising funds
for monument to ex-President Davis suita-
BILE to his fame and worthy of the respect
and veneration felt for him 10y the Southern
people. The Chamber having taken the mat
ter in hand so heartily is an assurance Of its
success so far as Richmond is concerned, and
there is no doubt that the people of Virginia
will not be found behind those of any other
Southern State in the liberality of their
subscription. 1t is a matter of regret that
Lee and Pickett camps Confederate Veterans
did not see fit to respond to the appeal of
General Gordon to all the veteran camps of
the South to meet on that day for concerted
movement for this purpose, but the hearty re-
sponses from Danvlle and West Point show
that Virginia veterans generally are aroused
in the matter and that they are ready TO do
what they can to forward the object sought.
News from various points shows that the cities
of the further South are also taking lively
interest IN this movement, and there is no
doubt now that the needed fund will be read
lily secured.
The money for the erection OF splendid
memorial to the late Chieftain of the South
ern Confederacy having been thus virtually
arranged for, the next step is to decide where
the body of the distinguished dead shall
finally rest and where the monument shall be
located. With all due respect to the patriotic
sentiment of the other Southern lOcali-
ties who have claims 10 the honor,
fafV ka -,
ate that this city should be selected
for both the permanent interment of
the revered remains Of Mr.. Davis and for
the location Of the monument to his memory
Though his fame during the greater portion
of his public life was SO intimately connected
with Mississippi, and though Montgomery,
Ala, was tho provisional capital Of the
Confederacy at its inception. still it is Rich
mond with which the climax Of his career is
identified and which is recognized as the seat
of government of the Confederate States dur
ing the hottest part Of their struggle for self
government and Southern rights, and down
to the disastrous close of the des-
perate conflict. Jefferson Davis and Rich
mond are. therefore, the two names
lHoie prominently tndu any Oluef connected
with the history Of that memorable contest,
and they should go down to history so con-
nected, never 10 be divided. With this senti-
ment we are confident that the South in gem
eral will coincide, for Richmond. as the capt
tai Of the Confederacy, is point in which all
the Southern States without exception feel
peculiar interest, and, to a certain extent. COM
r
of the surviving Confederate veteran, let
him come from where he may.
The Chamber has appointed most excel
lent committeeiof our representative citizens to
visit New York 10 confer with Mrs. DAVIS on
the subject, and they will leave for that city
as soon as she desienates the time when it will
be most convenient for her TO meet them. Il

THE WRIGHTSvILLE TRIP
Discussed by a Committee From the Cham

cation of Colonel II. c. Jones in reference TO
the encampment of the First Virginia regi-
ment at Wrghtsyille. n. c.. on the 18th

tee at the annual meeting of the Chamber

committee and Colonel II. c. Jones were
present. the latter by invitation, % explain 10
the committee the opportunity which tins Oc-
casion would afford the business men OF Rich
moud for further cultiyating and cement
ing friendly and business relations with
merchants from al sections OF North
Carolina. Colonel Jones explained that
the invitation 10 his regiment from
the Governor of North Carolina to
encamp with the State Guard Of North
Carolina OF this delightful sea-shOre resort
was prompted by the cordial desire on the
part OF the people of that State 10 reciprOcate
some Of the cOurtesies which they had re-
ceyed at Richmond, and that, therefore, it
was important that an appreciation OF the
honor should be shown by the regiment
going TO this encampment with full ranks.
that IN order 70 accomplish this he desired 20
enlist the interest of the Chamber and
of Richmond's business men generally,
and he felt that he could more
appropriately do so. as the North Carolina
troops which would be gathered at Wr@hts-
VILE on that occasion. IN rank and file. con-
sisted largely of merchants from every section
OF the State and as We had experienced the
good results derived from business mems ex-
cursiOns. both 30 and from North Carolina,
he thought this would be most faS orable
opportunity of again bringing the commercial
men Of the two States in contact.

but also that a committee from the
Chamber might accompany the regiment on
that occasion. The expense of the trip would
be very light, he said. as the rOuud-trips tic ket
was only 1913. and the location of the site
selected for the encampment Immediately
upon the coast of North Carolina Just about
niue miles from Wilmington. he was assured
was q most healthy and pleasant spot in all
respects.
The committee unanimously favored tho
suggestions OF Colonel Jones, and decided
that "A circular letter should be addressed TO
all members Of the Chamber, embodying his
views, and that Colonel Purcell. the president
OF the Chamber. should be asked 20 appoint
upon a committee 20 visit this encampment

ment as were willing 10 go at their own ex-
peuse.

The Philadelphia Times gives some valuable
advice as to the best method of lessening the
evil effect upon the human system of the
heated season upon which we have just
entered, which is worthy of careful considera-
ton. "A large majority of. all classes. condi-
tions and sexes, intelligent and ignorant
alike " it says: greatly multiply the suffering
and perils Of hot spells by systematically fool
ing with the excessive heat. They furry and
bother aboutitand put themselves into need
less prostration; they begin early in the morn
ing to gorge their stomachs, already made sensi-
tive by unusual heat. with ice water ice soda,
ice cream, ice-cold beer, and wage the FOOLS
warfare with heat until they are Frustrated by
sickness. In short. they fool with the hot
spell until they bring upon themselves the
worst possible results from it.
The few wise people who have studied
how to disarm hot spells and have courage
enough to carry it out philosophically, face
the hot, sweltering morning serenely. dress
comfortably, eat sparingly. drink more SPAR
ingly than they eat and 60 about their neces-
sary labors with deliberate care. They never
fume or fret; never fuss and waltz around to
strike q temperature ten or twenty degrees
above the thermometer and they set aside for
a cooler season all oppressive labOrs that can
be postponed"
