executed his military campaigns mark Lee
as one of the really great captains of his
tory. Yet brilliant as were his achieve
ments, 1t is no exaggeration to say that
they We're eclipsed by the moral sublimity
of his character. A puT r, nobler figure
than that of Lee is not to be found in the
history of this or any other country. If
it be true that character alone endures in
the great alchemy of nature it is reason
able to suppose that Robert E. Lee will
never die.
Memorial monuments to Lee have already
been erected at Richmond and at Lexing-
ton, Virginia The reeumbent statue By
Valentine perpetuates his memory in mar
Bile within the shadow of the university of
which he was president after the war.
The equestrian statue in Richmond COM
memorates distinctly his military fame on
the spot where his genius was frequently
illustrated.
The memorial to be erected at Fort
Myer may be said to honor both the soldier
and the man. AS such it will appeal to
the sympathy of all Americans irrespective
of sectional lines.

There's to be test case Of the flag
law in Chicago. If the spirit of the
statute should ever override the literal in
depreciation, it is to be hoped that the
courts viii permit it in this case. The
emblem of the Stars and Stripes has been
vulgarized by indiscriminate abuse of the
national flag in advertising. 1t is time that
an end was put to such perversion of the
national colors.

Everything Lovely.

That is the verdict of all the ladies
who have taken occasion to inspect
the new stock of goods at the Boston
Dry Goods Store. Upon his return
from Europe Mr.. Tully spent solid
week of economically expended time
in selecting fine fall stock from the
leading importers and jobbers. He
paid special attention to the well
known requirements OF his trade, and
the result is a stock suited to their
Requirements. &
He spent three days in Chicago, too,
and purchased large line Of goods
there also.
To indicate how rapidly goods are
transported, lines selected by Mr..
Tully in New York were on sale a
week later on the Boston counters,
while some which were sent forward
by express arrived, within three days.
The Boston is now ready to meet all
demands for fall dress goods, as well
as the latest novelties in notions and
furnishing goods. The assortment is
simply bewildering.

women at the state Fair.

The committee appointed by the
Minnesota Federation of Women IS
Clubs has complepted arrangements
with the board of managers OF the
Minnesota State Fair and has out
lined plans for the week. The direct
ors have provided for the necessary
expenses of the week in considera-
tion OF the federation making the head
quarters attractive, comfortable and
helpful to all of the many types OF
women who may wish to enjoy it's
privileges.
Comfort and sociabilty will be
among the first considerations, and
couches, easy chairs and lavatories
will be provided. A group of club
women from the different clubs of the
state will be present each day to greet
the visitors and make them feel COR
daily welcome. AS the general re-
ception committee discovers the tastes
and interests of the visitors they will
be referred to the representatives OF
the appropriate committee. The only
formal gatherings will be q series OF
conferences to be held each forenoon,
at each of which some topic of inter-
est and Importance will be presented
by an able speaker, and it will then
be thrown open for general discus
sion. Musical numbers will vary
these exercises.
The board of managers OF the state
fair have placed the building know
as the ''Club House, of the Minneso-
Ia driving club at the disposal OF The
federation. The building has two
large verandas which command fine
view of the track, and Is connected
with tho amphitheater by walk.
For the protection of the state fair
management. as we'll as to prevent the
building from being overcrowded,
they have decided that an admission
fee of twenty-five cents shall be
charged for entrance to the building
after O'Clock p. m. The ticket re-
ceivsd will entitle the holder to the
privileges of the headquarters and
also of the amphitheater. During the

tend the state fair will take occasion
to visit the club house. Mrs. v. A
