1881, the opening of the branch road

No CRIME To TAKE DECOY Mon
EY.-Justice Bradley, in the crimi-

thief cannot be used, under the stat

that the ownership of the money

This ruling particularly affects postal

protes' against this delineation of
Tim. 1t is just that character of him
which his detractors in such places
As Boston and Chicago have been at
tempting to fix or him ever since the
war. The inference TO be denied
from 1t is that General Lee never had
any heart IN the war, but PLAYED his
part mechanically aud with no feel
ing at all. Now, in fact. while Gen
eral Lee. like General Early and
thousands of other Virginians. was
opposed to secession, yet when seces
slon was an accomplished fact and
an effort was made to coerce his
State, ne went into resistance of il
with his whole heart. and each blow
that he struck was delivered con
amore, and with ,he earnest hope
that it would utterly crush his ad
versaries
And no doubt General Lee did
think at the beginning that the
struggle was sn unequal one. But
ther- a. every reason fJr believing
that when he got well atloat upon his
marvellous tid" of unparalleled vic
tories, he came To believe that the
struggle was anything but hopeless
one. lie came to nave such uu
bounded confidence IN that immortal
army of Northern Virginia that he
believed there was nothing that could
withstand its shock.
We DO not iutcud TO suggest even
that Mr. Wise has intended Ia de
fame General Lee bv what he has
SAID. No doubt he thinks he has
paid MIN a compliment But. in
point of fact, he has aided his worst
enemies in the efforts they have been
making to belittle him and paint him
the man that he was not. But all
such efforts are vain. They are like

On Their Backs.

How ever the little birds cOntriye
to get across such vast expanses of
the sea in their annual migrations is
puzzling question.
That they do it is unquestionable;
1t Is admitted by the most competent
observers that they sometimes get
over stretches of billowy brine that
for thousand miles afford no perch
for their weary little claws to clutch
on. That such an extended flight is
too much for them is not only e,ident
in itself, but is proved by the fact
that these too venturesome songsters
sometimes alight on the rigging of
ships in such state of exhaustion
that, when distuI bed, they are unable
to fly the length of the vessel. and
occasionally even fall helpless upon
the deck
An English traveller who was con
sderably interested in the birds hap
pened to be passing the autumn in

ranean, and he often noticed "a sound

serviceable. as often as needed.
\ few days later the Englishman
got pretty conclusive proof of the
truth of these aiemeuts. He was
cruising about in boat about fifteen
miles from shore when another flock
OF cranes passed overhead, and he
heard the same twittering notes. He.
therefore, discharged his gun to see
what woul come of it, and forthwith
he saw three small birds rise up from
the flock in fright. After short
time they disappeared among the
cranes

Bedouin chief who stood near how be

The sheik at once replied: VA kha-

The Philippine cocoanut is an ar
ticle of much commercial Importance.
and has a tremendous and unlimited
future. The islands can grow enough
to supply the world, though that is
not necessary. as they abound in 9th
er places, but there is no doubt that
the product will have an increasing
and ultimately most important
money value. MarseilIes alone in
1897 imported one hundred and fifty
million pounds. the oil of which,
mixed with the American cottonseed
oil, is employed in the manufacture
of fine toilet soaps for which that
place is famous. For such purposes
the demand is without limit. Skill
fully managed, the cocoanut crop

cost to us of the islands. So saws an

higher value on cocoanuts than hu

The CORPORATION ATTORNEY OPIN-
IoN.-COrporation Attorney Boothe last
night gave his written opinion TO the City
Council that the charter OF the Alexan-
dria Water Company could not be
amended generally by the legislature OF
Virginia because the said charter con-
tanned no repeating clause or no clause
allowing alteration and amendment,
and because, when the charter was
granted, there was DO general law pro-
viding for the amendment, alteration or
repeal OF charters granted by the State
legislature. The opinion stated, how.
ever, that in matters relating to the
public health or public safety the chart
er could be amended by the legisla'
lure and that such amendment az might
be necessary in order to give the city 3
pure supply Of water undoubtedly could
be made. The opinion further stated
that the legislature OF the State could
allow the City Council to tax the fran
chise of the said water company, but
that the said legislature could not fix
the rates at which water must be furn'
ished unless it could be done as SAM
tary measure, for the reason that the
charter provides that the rates shall be
fixed by the board OF directors of the
water company and any law changing
this would be unconstitutional.
