The General commanding with the
deepest sorrow announces TO the mem

of one OF our grandest members and one
of the greatest American soldiers.
Gen. G. b. Beanregard, the last OF the
full Generals of the Confederacy, save
one, has closed his distinguished career,
his gallant spirit having passed into
the realm OF shadows at 10 o'clock p. m.
Yesterday. In our civil war, romance
and chivalry clustered around his name;
at his command the first shot was fired
which set ablaze the torch OF war; he
commanded in the first victory which
shed glory upon Southern arms, and
participated in the closing scenes OF

His dauntless courage, his matchless
ability and imperishable deeds during
the war, rendered his name not only ia
nous and of dazzling brilliancy upon
this continent. but IL reached over the
wide world. His wonderful: achievements
and his lustrous fame was discussed by
strange tongues and under strange
palms by the far-away barbarians, as
we'll as by all those people sheltered
under the Christian shield; and his mil
itary services were sought by nations
whose banner floated the pale crescent,
as well as those emblazoned with the
fiery cross.
His digniied department in private
life, his fOrtitude and earnest endeavor
to build up the fortunes Of his people
and OF the South enobled him as pa

General commanding desires that all
possible honors be paid TO his memory
by the United Confederate Veterans.

the ticket agent:

The negro explained: "You see,

The agent saw at once that this was
great stroke of economy and enter

be quite expensive. The corpse could
get the benefit of excursion rates to

Daughters.

IF all that mothers are to them came
home to the perceptions of daughters
at an early period, they would be more
anxious than they generally seem to
be to spare those mothers, to prolong
their days, and save them from much
of the exertion and anxiety that are
likely to shorten their lives, and that
if only from merely selfish reasons.
How many daughters there are who,
if it lies between them to doit, do not
let their mothers rise in the morning
and make the fire and prepare the
breakfast who, in the interim be-
tween cooks do not let the whole bur.
den of care and the chief endeavor OF
work come upon the mother who do
not let the mother get up in the night
and attend to the calls Of sudden ILL
ness who, if it is necessary to watch
with the sick, do not hold themselves
excused, and the duty to be a mater
nal one; who do not feel it their priv
ilege to be ready for callers and COM
pany while the mother is stillin work
ing deshaJiNe who are not in the
habit of taking the most comfortable
chair; and who, in the matter OF pro-
vision Of toilet, do not think almost
anything will do for mother, while
they themselves must be fresh and
in the fashion
How many daughters are there who,
when pleasure-taking comes in ques-
tion, do not feel, even if perhaps un,
consciously, that the mother has had
her day and ought to be contented, i,
and they should be the ones to 60 and
take the enjoyment =? 1t would seem
as if the mere sentiment of self-pre-
servation would teach daughters a
better line of conduct. 1t is the moth
er making the central spot OF the
house usually that makes home posi-

foreign and alien element, before
whom the old union and happiness
may possibly fly. To preserve this
home and this happiness, one would
imagine, should be the first effort Of
the daughter; that she should, out OF
regard for her own comfort and graft
fication, as we'll as that Of others, seek
every means to make life easy to the
mother, to insure her health and
length of days. Never again will any
daughter have such friend as this
mother. No fond adorer's eyes will
ever follow her with the same disin-
terested love as this mother S eyes do,
nor will any give her the sympathy
she does. It is wild folly on the
daughters part that lets the mother

last night, George Baker, a 7-year old
somnambulist, was shot and SO badly
wounded that he died in two hours.
The little fellow, it appears, got up
about midnight and, leaving his home,
went to that of Jesse Donnie, about
onc-quarter of mile away. He tried
several doors and a window in an effort
to enter the house, wakcning Dennie.
The latter took his pistol and, raising
an upstairs window, asked what was
wanted. The boy made no reply, and
Dennie, thinking him burglar, fired.
The bullet ploughed through his LETT
breast and he died in two hours.
