TWO NOBLE WOMEN HONoRED.

1.-THE Memphis Trained nurse Association
receives this afternoon from 4 o'clock at
their new home, los Washington street, in
honor of: two of its members, Mrs. Lena
Warner and Miss NJ. r. Holmes, who will
leave Sunday night for Cuba, in the en-
%ployment of the United States govern
ment."-Memphis Scimitar, April It'll.
Mrs. Warner, formerly Miss Lena
Angevine, was reared in Grenada, and
it is truly gratifying to her friends and
relatives here, to know that she has
been the object of SO great an honor.
That she is in every respect worthy OF
it, her record as a trained nurse Is
ample evidence. She has acquired
a reputation that reflects the greatest
credit upon her ability and general
aptitude for so responsible and impor-
tant a position and holds a prominent
place among the Medical Fraternity Of
Memphis.
The intelligent, w~ell~trained nurse
stands next TO the physician in the
treatment of disease. In fact much of
his success depends upon her capability
and faithful discharge of duties. Mrs.
Warner is "a lady of refinement, which,
added to her gentle and
medical attachments, makes her
presence in the sick room a b~enediction.
1t takes a lofty courage and nobleness
OF purpose to brave the perils OF
pestilehce and other ills in a foreign
land, and the two ladies who left Sun
day for Cuba have our best wishes for
their success and happiness.

WORK OF OTiS QUESTIONED.

A resolution has been offered in the
House by Representative Jefferson
Levy, of New York. asking a specia'
commission to investigate the conduct
of the war in the Philippines by Genl,
Otis. The bill urges Congress to make
stringent enquiry concerning the
reports of insanity among the troops in
the Philippines. In the War Depart
ment, records show that nearly 400
men have become hopeless maniacs
during the past six months and that
thirty officers and men have taken
their wi lives since December l, 1889.
The resolution declares that the
rebellion is by no means crushed
despite the great increase in the army.
1t is high time that some inquisitorial
action should be taken relative 70 the
war, in that portion OF our expanded
possessions so ably mis-managed by
Otis.

The Chinese, in certain portions Of
the Celestial Empire, are at their
favorite pastime and pleasure, NAL
treating, torturing and killing christian
missionaries and others Of that faith.
The resentment and vengefulness OF
the vast majority of Chinese are as
strong and bitter today as when the
first missionary, with fervent hope and
undaunted faith, tried to win them
away from their hideous idols TO the
feet of the Good Shepherd. They are
not worth the sacrifice of human life
that is so continually made for them;
and the best return they can make for
the great interest and brotherly love
of christians, is TO beat them until they
are we'll nigh dead, burn their houses,
chop off heads, and other deviltries
which only increase their chances for
sheol.

thirty eight years ago met in deadly

great battle where the armies of Grant

Southern birds had taken the place OF

Wild flowers aud grasses now dot the
fields that once was strewn with shot
and shell, and morning breezes soft
and gently, whisper a requiem over
the gallant dead who fell fighting
bravely for the cause enshrined in the
heart OF each one. Many distinguished
soldiers OF both North and South

DENVER TRAMWAY IS TAXED
AS A STREET CAR LINE

Denver, Colo Nov. 21.-District
Judge Palmer gave his opinion in the
Tramway tax case yesterday and, as
n result OF his decision Arapahoe coun-
ty will be $SI .029 richer.
Suit brought by the Tramway COM
pany was to prevent the county as
SCISSOR from fixing the assessment of
the Tramway company. The counsel
for the Tramway contended that the
company was a railroad company and
therefore subject to assessment only
by the state board of equalization.
Counsel did not contend that the com.
pany's franchise was not assessable.
The assessment of both the state and
county boards of equalization was
based on the same amount of property
including the franchise. Until the year
1876 the Tramway company had paid
its taxes on the county boards assess
ment. In 1896 the Tramway took the
ground that the company was a rail-
road and not a railway company. In
accordance with this view it returned
schedule of valuation to the state
board of equalization and the board
has ever since made an assessment on
its schedule. The county board has
also made an assessment on the prop
erty and when the Tramway company
refused to pay the county assessment

Fall Irrigation.

Fall Irrigation has been thoroughly
tested and found to be a success. The
ground will work much better In the
spring and will require one-third less
water to produce the first cutting Of al
falfa II irrigated in October or Novem-
Der, and for season us dry as this one
irrigating can be done at any time dur
ing the winter II the water is available.
Farmers who use the water in the fall
can depend on 1t that they will not
have to irrigate in the spring to get
the crop up. This plan of irrigation is
gradually growing in favor and with
an independent supply Of water at this
time wonders can be accomplished and
much trouble saved in the spring. Fall
plowed land or ground through which
potato diggers have run will take wa
ter readily.
