FIRST TENNESSEE REGIMENT
WIN Arrive at san Francisco About Ooto-
ber 5---Thon Home,

The First Tennessee Regiment
will reach San Francisco about tho
7th of October, was the information
to Congressman John
Wesley Gaines at the War Depart
ment Monday.
The transports now starting for
Manila will bring the Tenneseans
on the return trip. Congressman
Gaines was also informed that if
the regiment is mustered out at
San Francisco each private viii re-
ceiye travel pay to the amount Of
S106.60; corporals, SLIT sergeants,
$132; first sergeants, $l59. The
cost in transportation from San
Francisco to Nashville is about $40
in each case, so the boys prefer to
be mustered out there, for, say a
private for instance, could pay his
way home and save S6l60 out OF
his travel allowance.
An effort is being made to have
the boys return to Nashville in reg.
mental order after the muster out
ont at San Francisco. The regi
mentwill remain at San francisco
about fifteen days after its arrival
so as to enable the paymaster tc
settle with the Tennessee heroes.

In the NIidst of Lie.

II was in a small town in a neighboring
state the other day." said a New Orleans
travelling man to the Times-Demo-
crat, land having some time to
kill in the afternoon I took a stroll and
happened into a cemetery. While looking
around my attention was attracted by a
particularly hideous monument with fun
ny fat angel carved on one side. Under
meath was an inscription to the beloved
wife of so-and-so, and in one corner, in
good-sized letters were the words, John
Smith, marble yard, No. Blank street
While l was pondering on the nerve of the
stonecutter in putting his business card on
a tombstone, big man with a heavy mus
tache came through the gate and Joined
me. L saw you looking at that stone he
said, and thought maybe you needed
something in that line yourself Are you
Mr.. SMITH I asked. I am he said, and
this is Mrs Smiths monument He spoke
exactly as If he were introducing me to
somebody, and I was so startled you could
have floored me with a feather l glanced
at the inscription again, and sure enough,
1t was Amelia Smith. When I recovered
my self-possession thought I'd draw him
out a bit I was thinking about getting a
monument I said, and this struck me as
being very handsome 'Surep he replied
enthusiastically, and began Immediately
making an estimate. That angel, he said,
is a dead image of the lady, but, of
course, I can make one anyway you like.
Male or female, may l ask?' 1 could hard
ly keep a straight face, and began to ma
neuver to get away. 1 told him I would
have to have the monument Immediately
and would hardly be able to wait for him
to carve anything so elaborate. Well I'll
tell you,' he said, I might let you have
this one on a pinch. The letters are raised
so l could cut 'em off and put on yours
in italyo could easy change the angel.
1 promised to write, and broke away. He
is looking for the letter yet, suppose. I
know this story sounds a triie flshy, but
It happens TO be absolutely true

our SECURITIES COMING HOME.

There was slight fall in the prices CT
many of our securities last week, owing
partly to the fact that some of the specu-
lators sold their holdings with the view
of realizing their profits and for the rea-
son that a great many American securi-
ties that were held in Europe were sent
home recently for sale. One Wall street
authority estimates that within the last
year as many as two hundred and fifty
million dollars worth of our securities have
been returned to this country owing to the
high prices they commanded. All of these
securities were taken without any serious
effect on the security market.
In Wall street il is said that the people
of the United States are ready and will
are held abroad. They can do it with
half trying, is the opinion of the best Wall
street fnauciers. And 1t would be good
thing for the country, because the divi-
dend money which is now sent abroad
would be kept at home Notwithstanding
the large amount OF our securities which
has been sent home, Europe is still great
ly in our debt. Just what the amount is
there is no way of knowing. but it is be-
lieved to be at least two hundred millions
of dollars. Our exports last year exceed
edAour imports fully six hundred millions
of dollars and the indications are that the
excess this year will be fully as great as
1t was last. Everything, of course, de-
ponds upon the crops. If our exports
should be as large as they were last yesv
Europe would begin to be alarmed about
her gold. She has not American securi-
against our surplus of exports. Our COM
mercial victories promise to be far greater
than the victories of our army and navy.
