NERVOUS DEPRESSION.
IA TALK WITH MRS. prNKHAM.l

A woman with the blues is very un- comfortable person. She is illogical, unhappy and frequently hysterical.
 The condition of the mind known as the blues," nearly always, with wo- men, results from diseased organs of generation.
 It is source of wonder that in this age of advanced medical science, any person should still believe that mere force of will and determination will overcome depressed spirits and nerv- ousness in women. These troubles are Indications of disease.
 Every woman who doesn't under stand her condition should write to Lynn, Mass, to Mrs. Pinkham for her advice. Her advice is thorough com mon sense, and is the counsel of a learned woman of great experience. Read the story of Mrs. F. s. BENNETT, Westphalia, Kansas, as told in the fol- lowing letter:
 DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:--I have suf- fered for over two years with falling, enlargement and alteration of the womb, and this spring, being in such a weakened condition, caused me to flow for nearly six months. Some time ago, urged by friends, wfote to you for advice. After using the treatment which you advised for short time, that terrible flow stopped.
 "I am now gaining strength and flesh, and have better health than have had for the past ten years. I wish to say to all distressed, suffer ing women, do not suffer longer, when there is one so kind and willing to aid you"
 Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound is woman's remedy for wo- mans ills. More than a million wo- men have been benefited by it.

WALTER T. COLQUITT
Commander in Chief-W. B. Bankhead
 Commander Tennessee Division

Charleston, S. C., May 12.-The Limited Sons of Confederate Veterans today elect. ed officers and adjourned to the reunion of lSss Walter T. Colquitt, of Atlanta, son of ex-Governor Colquitt, was chosen eomman- der-in-chief; M. l.. Bonham, of South Car olina, commander of the division of Northern Virginia; W. B. Bankhead, of Alabama, commander of the division of Tennessee, and H. B. Kirk, of Texas commander of the trans Mississippi di. vision.
 The election was a spirited one and con- siderable feeling was manifested in nomi- hating speeches. Mr. Colquets only op- ponent was Robert D. Lee, Jr., of Wash ington, D. C., who was solidly opposed by the Virginia delegation, while his nomina- tion was made by a Charleston delegate and supported by the solid South Carolina contingent. MT. Smyth, the present com mander, declined to again allow his name to go before the convention. The vote stood IA to 119, and on motion MT. Col uuitt,s election was made unanimous. The ppposition to Lee was based on the fact thatxhe was not a member of the associa- tlon until yesterday, when he was admitted to Camp Moultree of this city. The ses- sion was a stormy one, and personal feel Ing ran high. Once when the vote of a Etate was announced as solidly for Lee, a hiss was heard, followed by protests and cries of shame, shame"
 Prior to the election the sons held me- morial exercises for Miss Winnie Davis at which many eloquent eulogies were pro- nounced. M
 The next reunion will be held at Louis- vile, Ky. A committee was appointed to consider the matter of erecting monu- ment to the woman of the confederacy and report to the next convention.

The confusion was terrific, and his remarks were unintelligible al times. F. H. Busbee, of North Carolina, de- tended the committees report saying that the United States was noY our govern inent. They could not afford to be dlsc6nr- teous and unappreciative. He mentioned graves of the Confederates at Elmira, N. Y, and other points in the north. Where were the southern women to take care of those graves there? What had his eom- rade, who preceded him, done to care for these graves?
 The United States care of these graves was something as people of a common country, they were entitled to. Though he was an ex-Confederate, he was citizen of the United States and he was loyal to the flag
 Gen Stephen D. Lee spoke vigorously and plainly. He thought the resolutions had been misunderstood and said: Tt simply commended the sentiment ex- pressed by the president and did not go one inch further. When the president comes forward and says what he does Git takes hundreds of thousands of dollars to care for the graves), I commend the sen timent He wanted the resolution recom- mtted; there was nothing in the matter that required a substitute.
 Several other speeehs were made amid a general tumut, and a vote finally had. The resolution was declared adopted.
 
 adopted was one appointing a committee of three to consider the question of uni- formity of pension legislation by the south ern states and resolution recognizing the Confederate Veterans association of the District of Columbia.
 Will Not Change the Name
 An adverse report was made upon the proposition to change the name of the or ganlzation to the Confederate Surviving Organization" the object being to use the initials c. S. A.
 General Clement A. Evans presented the report of the board of trustees on the Battle Abbey" Satisfactory arrange ments have been made for the location of the building and only $46OoO of the $200, 900 is still lacking
 Among the resolutions adopted was one .characterzing as mere friction the state- ments made by a distinguished southern lecturer that the Confederate authorities were remiss in not improving the oppor- tunity at the famous Hampton Roads con- ference when MT Lincoln met the southern commission in effort to arrange terms of peace. The allegation was that MT. Lin- coin had at that time offered to write Union at the top of the paper and allow the Confederate commissioners to under write whatever terms they chose and offer ing to pay four hundred millions indemnity for the slaves.
 The resolution declares that there is no authority for this statement and says the official records preclude the possibility of

cheers and applause from some of the members and cries of "Amen." Continu- ing, MT. Martin said that the south had no desire to commit the care of its graves to strangers. Could the voices of the dead be heard they would prefer to lie in an unmarked grave rather than in the most costly mausoleum if we had to ask for 1t. Proceeding, he began the question of the right of self-government and started to quote President Mckinley, when he was called to order with cries of "No politics."
