Illinois vanquished Iowa at foot
bool in the postponed Thanksgiving
game at the Davenport fair grounds
Saturday afternoon. 1t was an easy
victory, indeed, for the team organ

players from the High schools of
Rock Island aud Moline and of Au-
gustana college. The contest was
watched by an audience representa-
tive OF the society Of the three cities.
and the orange and blue of Illinois
and the red and white OF Iowa, we're
Haunted freely and with enthusiasm.
The team from this side outclassed
the homo team at every point, in
weight training aud scientific knowl-
edge of the game.
ls was a one-sided struggle, the
Illinois players making most of their
gains around the ends, and very
little punting YVES Zone. Drawn and
heft gave the orange and blue an
advantage that the red and white
corrageously but vainly opposed.
Lafgren thrice forced the Davenport
line for touchdown, Lindgren got q
couple and Eastberg kicked all five
goals, and thus were made the 80
points for Illinois, while Iowa scored
nothing.

Annoy, CHINA, FEBRUARY ~ 1870.
Dear General Munford:
Away off here, on the shores Of far
Kathay. I had the pleasure last week Of
reading your charming criticism in the
Richmond Dispatch of "W. r.. RS" claim
that Colonel John Scott was the sole cap
tor of the fourteen pieces OF artillery
abandoned by the retreating Federals at
Cub-Creek bridge on the evening Of
July q. 1861.
AS never like to enjoy q mans good
things without due Acknowledgement
therefor, ! adventure this line to thank
you for the admirable way In which you
show the untenable nature Of Mr.. Ran
doiph's exclusive claim.
You know I would not take one iota OF
credit from the cavalry, II could; but
am sure you will pardon me for saying
that for the past thirty-five years have
been "toting'' around with me the as
sured belief that the capture of the four
teen guns In question was due to the
fortunate shot from one OF my guns.
which turned en- ambulance over
on the bridge, blocking the passage, and
leaving the Federal guns on our side, to
be driven back TO Stone bridge by my
men, assisted by the cavalrymen belong
ing to the Black Horse and other COM
panie9, that came up after my fire had
ceased.
1Qu see Gencral, the cavalry charge

hospital, some time previous 70 the Incl

A neat and tasteful headstone has just
been erected In the Citizens Cemetery. In

Captain william d. Fairly. OF South caro-

on the staff OF General J. E B. Stuart.
Captain Farley's remains were inferred
In the lot of DR.. william Ashby. or this
place, and the monument would have
been erected years ago, but for the I'M
preston that the body would be removed
TO his native State. AS this was not done.
some of Captain Farley's comrades-ln-
arms determined that fitting memorial
should mark his grave.
with this object in view. General ]. b.
Gordon was invited to deliver his famous
war-lecture In Culpeper. the proceeds TO
be devoted to the erection OF monument
over Captain Farley's last resting-place.
General Gordon sent his personal check
for SIS.
Mr.. Polk Miller was also requested to
give one OF his popular entertainments In
our village for the benefit OF the monu-
ment fund.
1t has been O melancholy pleasure to
his surviving friends and admirers to
erect this simple tribute to the vaior OF
the true-hearted soldier who shed his
blood on Virginia soil.
Like many others, he gave his life In
the bloom OF noble young manhood
for the Lost Cause.
Far from the homo Of his childhood he
sleeps, but loving hands will tend his
grave. Let those who approach this hal
lowed spot tread lightly, for
Underneath this stone doth lie
As much beauty az could die.
Which, when alive. did vigor give
To an much virtue as could live"
