RICHMOND, Va, May 31,--All that
is mortal Of Jefferson Davis now
rests in Hollywood. The special
train from New Orleans bearing the
remains and escort arrived here
this morning. At the depot the
first regiment and the veterans
from Lee and Pickett Camps were
drawn up to DO honor to the distin-
guished dead, while thousands of
men, women and children, some Of
whom had been waiting for hours,
testified the appreciation of the oc-
casion by the most respectful ST.
lence. As the casket containing
the body was removed to the hearse,
heads were uncovered.
The procession then proceeded
with the visiting escort Of veterans
from the various Southern States in
the post of honor to the State Cap
itol building where the body was
placed IN state in the rotunda im-
mediately in front of the Senate
chamber. Lee Camp performed the
duty of guard of honor. Here il
remained until 3 o'clock, and it is
estimated that at least $4,000 peo.
pie viewed the bier. Indeed, 8

Touching story In President Davis
Life.
The following touching story is
told by Mrs. w. T. Sutherlin, of
Danvil.e, where President Davis
last headquarters were located.
She said: "When bIr. Davis had
been at our house for three days
he said that he could not impose
On our hospitality longer, and
made arrangements TO establish his
headquarters at the old Benedict
house, on Wilson street. 7 told
him he might take his cabinet TO any
place be pleased, but as for him
self he must be our guest SO long
as ne remained in the city, and he
yielded to the request. He remained
here five days after that time, and
was, Of course, il q most anxious
frame of mind, but was always
pleasant and agreeable. Oae morn
ing he and Mr. Sutherlin went down
town and soon returned in an ex-
cited manner and knew something
had happened. [ met them at the
door, aud Mr.. Davis told me almost
in 8 whisper that Lee had surren-
dered and that he must leave town
as soon as possible.
"Msking a few hur,ied arrange.
ments, ne offered his hand to ne to
say goodby and l asked him the
question: 'Mr Davis, have you any
funds other than confederate te

tive. Then. said I, offering him a

dollars, take this from me- I Of

it would be all right with him.

had a brighter day for the primary than

coats, and the first peep o. sun over

the town that continued all day.
The average voter did not get up early.
Workers were up however, and bright
and early set about doing what their
outs were the busy men, while the "Re-

There was only one ticket to vote, and
that was the Straightout, as follows:
For Mayor-T. &. Starnes.

executive committee left three places on
this ticket to be filled by the Republi-

| At $50 O'Clock there had been not
more than 10 votes cast at both boxes.
This caused a poet to break out with

In those days shall come out man from the

Who wont go into the primary, and will

each one good enough and "all right.
