n ASH sunday two prominent ladies'.
residing at one of our downtown
hostelries, decided to take advan-
~ tage of the splendid day and make
a trip to the park. After arriving
there they wandered around for some
time finally bringing up in one of the
bypaths, where they paused to admire
some forget-me- nots that were growing
lust beside the walk. Coming down the
same path were three soldiers, slightly
under the influence of liquor. The soldiers
continued to advance until they were
within few yards of where the ladies'
who by the way are both remarkably
handsome women, though one is old
enough to possess a son some 25 or rs
years of age-were STOPPING over the
flowers Then they halted, and the fol-
lowing foated to the ladies' ears as two
of the men demonstrated with the third,
who was evidently bent on something
which failed to meet with their approval:
Don't you do it; you'll get yourself in
trouble"
Whats the difference? I'm going to
have some fun"
You'd better be careful They won't
stand for it
IT don't care; I'm going to take a
chance, anyway"
BY this time the two women had become
alarmed, but while one started hurriedly
down the path toward a more frequented
locality the other continued to bend over
the flowers. though one of the men, de-
taching himself from the others, advanced
until he stood directly behind her
Then the lady, smiling at him over her
shoulder, said:
"How do you do?"
I'm WELL gruffiy responded the fellow,
who was surprised at not having to make
the first advances himself.

uniform" sweetly continued the lady,

over the wire netting, he plucked the

THE SOUTH WAS RIGHT.

After This Declaration Mr.. Butler
Withdraws Pension Amendment.
Washington, Jan. 27.-As the senate
was about to conclude consideration of
the pension appropriation bill late yes
terday afternoon Mr.. Butler, of North
Carolina, offered his amendment, an
nounced some time ago providing for
the pensiuning of eX-Confederate sol
diers. Upon this he took the floor and
delivered a speech which, as he pro-
ceeded, developed into a most uneX-
pected utterance Mr.. Butler defend
ed the position taken by the south dur
ing the great civil conflict of a third
of a century ago. He declared that the
south was right, and that history would
so record, and that every shot fired by
a southern soldier was fired in defense
of the rights of his state, conferred by
the constitution. in self defense, and in
defense of his home and fireside. At
the conclusion of his speech Mr. But
Ter withdrew his amendment.
Mr.. Bate of Tennessee, himself dis
tinguished Confederate officer. declared
that while the south believed it was
right the occasion was not opportune
for the proposition which Mr.. Butler
had made, and that the southern sol
ders as body did not desire pensions
from the general government and he
expressed his satisfaction that Mr.. But
Ter had withdrawn his amendment.
The third day of the debate in the
house upon the bill for the reorganiza.
tion and increase of the regular army
passed without notable incident. Its
feature was an hours speech by Mr.
| GrOsvenor of Ohio, whose utterances
rightly or wrongly, are frequently sup
posed to reflect the views of the presi.
| dent. Mr. Grosvenor declared most EN-
phatically that the present situation il
the Philippines was due to the open op,
position in this country to the ratifca
ton of the peace treaty. He announced
that the future of the islands was {
matter for congress to decide, and tina
for the president to announce a policy
would be for him to usurp the author
! ity of congress.

FrOm POttsviIIe ChrOnlcIe.
There is some soundness in the argument
presented in license court yesterday that if no
liquor licenses were granted tenants on the
lands of the Girard Estate more liquor would
be illegally sold than all the applicants for
licenses combined could sell. This has been
demonstrated during the past year, when no
liquor was sold under a license ON the above
lands. The brewery teams made almost daily
trips to the district and all did thriving
business. Liquor was sold, but the county
reaped no benefit from it, and there are still
those who are willing to run the risk, and
the number will continue to grow unless a
few licensed places are permitted.
