Of Justice Brewer and White, Mr..

evidences OF agitation or effort. He
had read from law volume and had
followed with this sentence.

First step Toward the Surrender OF Con
fcderate Burying Grounds to tho Con.
troll Of the National Guvcru,n- mt
(News and Courier }

Washington, January 27.-Son-
ator Pritchurd introduced in the Sen
ate today his amendment to the ap,
preparation bill, which is designed to
be the first step toward carrying out
the suggestions Of the President for
tho care Of the Confederate graves.
This amendment provides for an
appropriation for the preliminary
work. 1t is as follows:
TO enable the Secretary of war to
make a thorough examination and
report to Congress as tho the number
of Confederate cemeteries in tho
United States and the location there-
Of, and the number OF Confcderate
soldiers buried in other than Coufcd-
crate cemeteries, with the location of
such cemeteries, with the view to as
certain the best method of caring for
the removal, whore practical or de-
sirable, Of Confederate dead from
private cemeteries to such Confed
crate cemeteries, the sun Of $4,000.
AS the amendment explains on it's
face, it provides simply for paving
the way for the work. This is
probably all that will be done by
this Congress, but aitor the infor-
nation has been ascertained it is
fully expected that the work will 20
on, and that tho graves, especially IN
distinctively Confederate cemeteries,
will be cared for.

Of Nogood,
On the banks Of the River Slow,
Where blooms the Waitawhile Hover

Where the Sometimcorothcr scents

And the soft Goeasys grow.
1t lies in tho valley of Whatsthcuse,
In the province of Letherslide;
Misunderstanding is native there,
It's tho home of the reckless Idon't-
Where the Giveitups abide.

And 10 easy to reach | declare;
You've only to fold up your hands and
glide
Down the slope of Wcakwill's toboggan

TO be landed quickly there.
The town is as old us the human race,
And it grows with the hight of years,
1t is wrapped in the fog of idlcrs'
dreams,
It's streets arc paved with discarded
schemes
And sprinklcd with useless tears.
The collcgebred fool andthc richman's

Are plentiful there, no doubt;
The rest of the crowd are Il motcly

With every class except one in view
The foolkiller is barred out.
The town of Nogood is all hedged
BY the mountains Of Despair,
No sentinel stands on its gloomy walls;
No trumpet to battle and triumph calls,
For towards alone arc there.

STORY OF EMMA ABBorT's DEATH.
How tho Queen "f tho Lyric Stage Sang
Consump'ivs's Requiem.

Ihefo was titno, ana lt was not
many years ago, when every CITY in
tho south looked forward with emo.
tions Of pleasure to the coming Of
! Emma Abbott, Evory admirer of
grand opora regarded it rs al epoch
Of tho year. But aside from her OK
traordlnary talent and culture, our
most aristocratic ladies' loved her for
her virture, hor charity, and her gen
tie disposition, and when in town she
was showered with invitations to
dine, to toa and to como and spend
only few moments in tho most pa
latial homes.
Her rebuke of the Nashville
preacher is still remembered and often
spoke Of when her name is mentioned.
This puro woman ono Sunday morn
ing attended church in that city.
Whether tho minister knew she was
there, and who sho was, has fcen as
sorted and deniod Anyhow, in
his sermon, he denounced all wo-
men of the stage as fallen and want
ing in chastity. Miss Abbott at once
rose in tho audience and, after chul-
longing tho truth of the monstrous
assertion and slander, walked out Of
the house.
1t is, however, not with hcr life 80
much as with her death L am trying
to deal. One night in the city Of
Denver, Colorado, located at the foot
and in plain Wow Of tho Rocky
Mountains, she was billed to appear
in "Faust." In tho same city most
attractive and beautiful lS.year, old
girl, belonging to one of the wealth.

that foil enemy Of tho human race
consumption. Some weeks before
the arrival Of the company she said
to those around her: "Oh, 1 hope
the sun will shine and the weather
will bo warm and genial, so I can
hoar Miss Abbott sing onco more. +
think could then pass away peace.
fully and without ono single regret"
But thcre came with the then queen
Of tho lyric stage a northern h uri
cane-with tho very air charged
with iciclcs, which penetrated the
lungs, Some ono told Miss Abbott
Of tho grlcvoous disappointment Of
the dying girl. Sno went to tho
opera house and never sang more
sweetly, and as soon rs it was over
and the audience dismissed, called
her carriage and directed it to drive
to the beautiful homo of tho young
lady. OF course she was admitted
to her room, and told her she had
como to CRAFTY her wish.
The scene which followed was
worthy Of the finest brush ever WELD,
ed by the grand old masters. There
lay the dying earth angel with pallid
lips. hectic checks and lustrons eyes,
with the light of immortal beauty
shining upon her face Standing be-
side her in one Of her richest robes
the ono she had worn that night,
sparkling with pearls, rnbies and
diamonds, stood the almost divine
mistress Of earthly melody.
Tho first piece rendered was "Tho
Old Folks at Home" and then fol. |
