21ST STREET BRIDGE.
Running Across It In Very Short Time--South Siders Demand It.

"It is very probable that in a short time street cars will be running over the Twenty-first street bridge said proni- nent South Slider yesterday to a State Herald repcr'ter. "Those citiens on the South Side who are no: able to afford carriages, but must ride in sxreet cars, demand a safe means of transportation into the city for themselves, their wives and children. The Twentie. h street cross ing, with it's network of railroad tracks and switches, makes it a very danger ous and hazardous crossing, even with the exercise of extra care and caution. More than once cars have been struck, and 1t is wonder serious alecident has not resulted before now. All that is nec- ..Ssary is for the street ear company to go to the expense of laying it's tracks after getting permission from the city authorities, which ought to be readily granted. The people demand it."

TO THE LADIES OF ALABAMA.

The follQWihg facts have been officially mentioned tS me by Gen. George Moor man, adjutart general of the United Confederate, Veterans:
 1. Thsre are 431 Alabama soldiers buried at Camp Chase near Columbus, O., whosdted while in prison.
 ?. Ruthgrford B. #Hays, afterwards pres4efft pf the United States, while gov ernQr of4Qhio, causedithe graves of these ands a Il other southern soldiers buried there, te be properly cared for at the eX- pc Fsespf that state. In this noble work Cow Fnraker followed his example.
 3. Col. William H. Knauss, a gallant union soldier, has had immediate con trol and direction of this generous work. has had handsome st5na wall erected around the cemetery the graves marked as far as possible and beautified by flowers and shrubbery.
 1. Col. Knauss and his associates have sst apart the 5th day of June next to be observed as memorial day for these southern soldiers and for the decoration of their graves, ard has suggested that fthe- ladies of the south send flowers to him for that purpose
 ..- rnh sse facts tell a patriotic story which l will not elaborate. But 1 do appeal to the daughters of Alabama to aid Col. Knauss in his noble and patriotic work by sending flowers and garlands to be laid on the graves of Alabama's sons.
 This can be done by writing to Col. Vim. H. Krauss. Columbus, O., who will without delay. give instruction how, 4 when and where to ship them.
 l respectfully suggest, however, that flowers shipped per express, from almost any railroad station in the state on the Sd day of June, will reach Columbus, O., i in time to be used on the 5th of June.
 Not doubting that this appeal will meet a cordial response from the ladies of the state, leave the matter in their hands. -1, ,...=-..st,4 F. s. FERGUSON, Mai.-Gen. U. c. "
