SOUTHERN GLEANINGS.
Dewey Seemed Pleased.


One of the proudest men in Column
bus, Ga, is Mr.. Charles G. Kendall, O
well-known young married man. The
cause of his pride is letter from Adj
miral Dewey, acknowledging receipt
of letter from Mr.. Kendall to the
effect that he had named his little
girl after the great naval hero, and
ncloslng a photograph of the young
lady. The most peculiar feature of
the story was that the child was born
the very day that Dewey smashed
Montojo's fleet, and her parents, learn
ing next day of the coincidence,
named her Eliz Dewey Kendall. At
the age of 3h months her picture was
taken, and Letter written in which
the facts were narrated and the pack
age dispatched to Dewey. The letter
is as follows:
Flagship Olympia, Manila, p. J.,
Oct. 21, 1S9S.--Mr. G. G. Kendall. Dear
Sir--I have the pleasure to acknowl-
edge the receipt of your letter of Sep
tenber 6, informing me that you hay,
honored me by naming your baby
Eliz Dewey Kendall, and also a photo
of the baby. May long life, health
and happiness be the lot of Miss Eliz,
with many thanks for the honor and
with respects to Mrs. Kendall. | am,

Gen. Clement a. Evans, of Atlanta
Ga, who was chairman of the commit
tee appointed by the governor in re-
sponse to resolution adopted by the
last legislature requiring the members
to secure information as to the loca-
tion Of the graves of confederate SOL
diers who died in northern military
prisons, has sent copy Of their re-
port to Gen. Marcus j. Wright, the
agent of the war department, whose
letter to the adjutant general of Geor-
gia has already been made public. The
report is by no means complete, and it
is lacking in essential details, because
the work of the commission was ham
pered by the lack of suitable appro-
priation of funds TO meet necessary
expenses, but it shows that nearly 22,-
600 confederate dead are buried In
northern states.

The people of Monte Vista have
expressed their appreciation of the
work Of Senators Adams aud Roe,

The general assembly of tho
United Presbyterians has suggested
rs part of the rules of discipline
and government, the following:
"The use of tobacco is sinful,
and, therefore, inconsistent with
the Christian profession. Be-
cause the use of tobacco is especial
ly obnoxious in officers of tho
church, no officer will be ordained
unless he promises to refrain from
its use. No student shall be ad-
mitted to license to preach the
gospel, or ordained, unless he
promise to refrain from the use of
tobacco"

A CRITIC.

In his attack upon Christian
Science, Rev. DR.. Vosburgh, OF
Denver, very truthfnlly says:
"The imagination is one of the
mightiest faculties with which God
has endowed man. 1t plays Il
large part in our blessedness or
wretchedness. 1t may tear life
down or build it up, flood the sky
with sunshine or fill it with clouds
Of gray aud mist. While environ,
ment does much, yet two men un.
der precisely the same set of cir.
cumstances will look ont upon an
entirely different world. "As a
man thinketh in his heart so is
he" Life is largely what the i'm.
agination makes it to be.
"The evil results growing ont of
perverted imagination have been
and are incalcuIable. 1t has led
the husband to suspect the wife
and the wife to suspect the hus-
band, and through the demon of
green-eyed jealousy has broken up
many a home. 1t has alienated
friends, ship-wrecked fortunes,
driven men to drink, suicide and
murder. 1t has made the present
miserable and peopled the future
with horrors. Men have imposed
upon themselves MS no one could
have imposed upon them.
"Words cannot exaggerate its
Importance or the blessings which
imagination conf-rs. 1t is in
many respects the greatest faculty
in man. 1t is enabled to take in
the conception of things which do
not present themselves to tn.
senses. 1t gives the evidence of
things not seen. 1t carries up IT,.
known into the realms of tn. un
known. 1t is the only faculty TINT
can climb the ladder from earth
into heaven. 1t was the imagina.
ton of Columbus that made him
aud all discoveries great"
With these flights of oratory
the reverend gentleman leaves the
subject and wanders from the text.
He does not define 'imagination,"
but leaves one TO infer that it ia
synonymous with intuition, BY
which one becomes conscious of
facts without being able to give a
reason why.
Imagination, a. used by the doc
tor, is casual, undirected and un-
developed thinking. and yet such
thinking exerts powerful intlu-
ence over the body, creating va
rious physical or bodily condi-
tious.
1t might be interesting to this
critic of Christian science to pur.
sue the line Of thought quoted
above and to determine, If he can,
what physical or bodily conditions
may be brought about by we'll
directed and carefully trained
thinking, such a. is taught in our
schools Of mental therapeutics.
A scientific study of the question
would be more satisfactory to the
gentlemsn's auditors than his
jumping to conclusions.

 AND ELSEWHERE

President D. McLaren of the Addyston Pipe works, Cincinnati, arrived in the city yesterday and will remain for day or two All efforts to induce MT. McLaren to talk about the proposed big pipe plant or his cbmpany here failed. It was impossible
 tc elicit any information from him, further
 than that he acknowledged that such a
 plant would be built in the Birmingham dis
 trict. He added that the meeting of the directors of the Addyston company would be held in Cincinnati, under the law of 0ho, on the 18th instant, and that final deciison would be arrived at. Enough votes had
 been pledged, however, to secure the build ing of a plant in this district. In point of fact, there can be no doubt as to the new
 plant. It's location is unknown to every body save those persons immediately con- cerned. MT. McLaren was, as he always is exceedingly civil and kind; but in answer to pointed questions he referred to the state of the weather.
 MT. McLaren and John w. Harrison, of
 the American Pipe and Foundry company,
 had an interview, which appeared to be of
 a cordial nature; after which MT. Harrison
 left over the Southern railway for the east. Only one thing seems to be certain about
 the new pipe plant: That is, that it will be
 built in the Birmingham district In an-
 other direction another fact is apparent.
 The capacity of the great pipe works at
 Bessemer will be doubled as already stated by The Age-Herald, and, with the addition, that will be the largest pipe works in the world.
 MT. McLaren's reticence may be taken
 curious; but, in point of fact, 1t is not so. He told The Age-Herald several weeks ago that the Addyston company would build big pipe plant here. Subsequently he gave this newspaper the information that the site had not been definitely selected; and now, even if the site has been chosen, he probably does not feel at liberty to speak until after the company's meeting on the 18th.
 1T happened to hear no longer ago than yesterday a proposition which surprised me-" said a well known iron man at the Morris. "I heard F. B. Nichols, one of the present directors of the American Pipe
 and Foundry company and formerly gen. eral manager of the Howard-H Harrison Pipe works, offer to furnish one-fifth of the
 money necessary to build the pipe plant
 which MT. McLaren. of the Addyston Pipe
 works, has been figuring on here. Just
 whether MT. Nichols proposition was or
 will be accepted. cannot state. but hap

The Report from Louisville About Sale
 of Tennessee Company.
ternoOn.

The Associated Press report from Cin- cinnati printed in yesterdays Age-Herald to the effect that the American Steel and Wire company had secured a working con- trol of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Rail- way company, and also that that company was at present building the plant of the Alabama Steel and Wire company at Ems ley, caused a great deal of discussion in industrial circles here yesterday.
 The officials of the Tennessee company denied positively that there was any truth in the report that they had been bought out and seemed to take it as one of the hundreds of wild rumors that have gotten out about the company during the past few months. One of the officers said that the Tennessee company could better afford to buy out the American wire than vice versa.
 As for the report that President Gates, of the American company was building the wire mill at Ensley it was stated that there was not the slightest truth in it. On the other hand MT. Gates and the Ameri- can Steel and Wire company has been bit tery opposed to the Ensey enterprise, and have done everything in their power to break up the deal.
