favors US with his. annual Catalogue
of Seeds and Plants. He - one of
the very best Seedmen in Ohio, sure
and reliable, sell only what will
grow and produce good fruit and
beautiful flowers. One feature of
his Catalogue is that seeds are priced
by the ounce, pound, pint and quart,
thus stating just how many each
packet contains, which we think is
quite important. as packet may
contain half dozen seeds or a half
pound. If you are thinking of
making a garden, by all means get
his Catalogue and make at least a
trial of his seed.

Daniel IL. Gaumer.

Dan III. Gaumer whose death was
announce! last week, was Postmaster
of GAINESVILLE, preSideu- of the Hook
ing and Ohio Valley Editorial Asso-
citation, Editor of the GAINESVILLE
Signal, and as grand and gallant a
fellow who lived in our times.
Ithurials lance, no matter the
mark touched, drips with heart
blood from the living who love. and
filings shadows on the path of those
who Vet linger on life's journey.
Death is a Grim Terror, presented
as he may by the min;stering angels
in all the beautiful hues of religion
and in the fashion of the unconcern
ed. But the paliid face cf the corps
is Appalling and the touch of the
cold hand of the vanished soul, is
chill 10 the warm blood that loved
the ing. The coffin is oppressive
grief, proStrating sorrow.
Dan Gaumer's public life is HIS
tory and Clio, and her school trained
to truth, will write his name among
the immortals of his time.
He was a bold brave man; defiant
resolnte, uncompromisiug an II uncon-
querable, He fought out and won
out issues personal TO himself and he
led following that knew no defeat,
in every public fight in which be was
concerned.
In the temrestuous times when he
was in active service, he stood the
right hand man OF Gov. Campbell,
and his clear head, warm heart, his
strong arm held frail barEs from
wreckage IN the offings. 1t was a
glad sight, in these tumulous times,
to see Dan Gaumer, Senator and Ed
itor, ride down the lines a champion
for weak brother or disturbed
and distracted leader, the flush OF
MS face reflection of his Gro an,
orifame in the charge to victory.
As all editor, he is best and widely
known. He made his paper, the
Signal, not only a Signal,
but a TrumpeG on the ramparts as
well. His paper was heroic and
dashing. He cut loose and cleared
away for the timid of the craft.
he tripped, occasionally
be got astray, but he soon got his
feet, and he never got lost. He was
a leader in any place the circumstances
placed him, never finching, never
hesitating, never surrendering. He
held up the honor and dignity of the
editorial profession with a love, a
pride and an enthusiam that made
him an adviser, a counsellor, as well
as Chief.
He was impulsive, but his impulse
wac the gush of feeling heart. He
was aggressive and defiant when an
encounter was imminent. In the
peaceful walks, in the quiet talks. he
was as gentle as a girl, as imrressible
as a child. as tender as loving
brother. lie never went back Oh
friend, be never turned back on an ]
enemy.
Dan Gaumer was our long time,
true and faithful friend. There was
about him of him, warmth. which
attracted, a dasp of hand which held
HIS elbow touch was a comrades
his word was a pledge.
He faced and fought opposition with
a bold front. He stayed by his
friends with a constancy that never
la war he was a knight
without fear and reproach, and in
peace he was a ministerlng angel to
the companionship of the brethern.
May his spirit, which when among
US, erode on the whirlwind and came
on the Storm" gentle ir the
eventide, have eternal rest aud peace.

Entering q Mosque.

Richard Davoy, in his book, "The
Sultan and His Subjects" says:
1.-The popular idea that people are
obliged as a sign of respect to take
off their shoes before entering a
mosque is incorrect This is done
simply because the floors of the
mosques are covered either with
mats or carpets, which must be
scrupulously clean, as during their
devotions the faithful touch them
perpetually with their foreheads.
If you wear galoches, or overshoes,
you have only to remove them and
boldly walk into the mosque in your
boots. Another popular error con-
nected with the mosques is the be-
lief that, according to the Koran,
Christians must not be allowed to
enter them This is absolutely op-
posed to the teaching of the Koran,
which declares that any man Or
woman may enter a mosque, be
his religion what it may. Indeed
in the earlier period of the history
of Islam it was considered that to
invite them to attend the service

House. The lecture was heard by a
large number of confederate veterans.
After dwelling at length OH the nu-
merous successes gained by Lee during
the civil war, Mr.. Andrews closed by
saying:
"But great as were tho achievements
of this great man as q general, incom-
parably greater than his military genius
was his grand and almost unmatched
moral character. His unselfishness, his
patience, his love of justice, all his at
tributes conspired to make his the EN-.
bodinent of nobility. He was an ideal
civilian, without fear and without re-
preach, pure of thought and speech,
never irreverent
"People are prone to allude to all Lee
fought for as the lost cause. Yet, like
Oliver Cromwell Lee has accomplished
what he fought for, and more than could
have been accomplished had he been
victorious. At the close of the war we
find the supreme court of the United
States deciding the status of individual
states, and the result is found to be that
while the Union is declared to be inde-
structible, each state is regarded as an
indestructible unit of that nation. Who
would dare wipe out today a states IN
dividuality, and dove not find today, in
stead of centralized powcr in congress
adjudicating things pertaining to the
states, the states themselves settling
these matters?"

who have passed away have nobly used
the opportunity to demonstrate to the
world their ardor. their patriotism and
their readiness to devote their lives in
defense of this, one reunited country. y
A resolution was passed commencing
the president for appointing Generals
Lee and Wheeler to high positions i'll
the army.
A resolution to erect the battle abbey
in Richmond was passed by al over
whelming vote.
Vets Show Their Loyalty.
The following resolution offered by
General Stephen ID. Lee was unanl-
mously and enthusiastically adopted:
"Whereas, The United States OF
America are at present engaged Ill q
war with Spain i'll the interest OF human
liberty, and
"Whereas, Our comrades and our
sons are members of that glorious army
and navy, the achievements of which are
now exciting the wonders Of mankind,
Therefore, be it resoved:
''That we, the survivors of the United
Confederate veterans, pledge our 10y
atty, and the hearty cooperation OF the
organization in this crisis of affairs, to
stand ready at all times with men and
money, irrespective of political affilia-
tions, to support the president OF the
United States as commander-ln-ch chief OF
our army and navy until an honorable
peace has been conquered from the
enemy.
Old Officers Are Reelected.
Colonel Ellison of Virginia nomi-
mated as officers for the coming year
the gentlemen now holding the posi-.
tions and it was carried in roar OF
applause.
The officers are General John B. Cor
don of Georgia, general commanding;
General Stephen D. Lee of Mississippi,
commanding the department of Ten
nessee; General w. L. Cabell of Texas,
transmississippi department.; General
Wade Hampton the army of Virginia,
General Gordon thanked the dele.
gates and the gathering adjourned until
tomorrow.
It is we'll known that General Cor
don, on account of failing health, would
have been willing to resign the honors
and the burdens Of the office OF conf
mander-in- chief to younger shoulders.
As in other reunions, this fact led to
the discussion of various names Tor tho
place; and as on other occasions, the
first day showed how imposslole IL
would be for anybody else to be clected
while Gordon would take It,
Battle Abbey For Richmond.
1t has been definitely decided that the
great battle abbey for the preservattlon
of the relics of the contcdcracy Will pe
built in Richmond. Atlanta, New Or,
leans and Nashville were deslrous OF
securing the abbey.

of several of the most PROMINENT con-
federate veterans, many of whom are
attending the reunion. held meeting
