GENERAL EVANS TO RETIRE.
Will Give Up the Command of the Confeder-
ate Veterans.

General Clement A. Evans, COM
mander-in-chief of the Georgia dl-
vision, united confederate veterans,
has issued a circular to the comrades
in the division notifying them OF his
intention and desire to turn over the
command TO some other comrade on
the occasion of the coming reunion IN
Augusta. General Evans feels that he
should retire after ten years OF active
work as cOmpanderi n-chief, though
he announces it as his purpose to oc-
cupv with the other comrades "other
fields of usefulness in our work until
time shall release US from our cOnleu-
crate obligations" He gave the notice
far in advance of the reunion that each
camp might have full opportunity 10
consider whom it would desire to ele-
vate to this position OF dlstlnctloh anu
honor when the time for the eIectlOu
arrives. Georgia veterans Will deeply
regret this determination OF General
Evans, for they appreciate to the lull,
est extent what has been accomplished
under his administration OF the com
mand. The Georgia division has grown
and prospered until, instead OF twenty,
it now numbers 100 camps, GAa0
alone excels it in mum bers and, as ger
eral Evans saws, none can surpass IL III
efficiency. The veterans realize ana
will recognize the debt they owe W
General Evans for his active ana llronI
inent part in the Accomplishment VI

NOT SEPERCILIOES.

II ere was something strikingly
pictorial in the appearance of a young
woman who sat in the upper left hand
corner cf New Orleans trolley car
during one Of its outbound runs. 1t
was due, no doubt, to many things
to the aristocratic slenderners of her
figure; to her wide, dreamy eyes, the
exact color of wood violets: to the
great black forest of ostrich plumes
that formed her hat; to the geometric
curve of the towering collar Of her
cape. \ any rate, she looked as if
she nigh have sauntered out of the
pages of some elegant Journal of fash
iona beautiful denizen Of picture
paper land, where skirts always hang
in just the proper folds and trousers
never Dag at the knee. Every body
looked at her, the men admiringly and
the woman coldly, as they always do
when another woman is better dressed
and she withstood the scrutiny with
regal composure. Sne did not seem
aware that anybody else was present.
At last the car neared her corner, and
and when she had pressed the button
and the heels were almost at stand
still she arose calmly and glided down
| the aisle.
She was at the door when the car
came to full stop, ard eng her
stagger slightly from the shock, the
conductor instinctivvly laid his hand
upon her arm. 1t was courteous
and respo ctful act, and enc that might
| have saved her from a fall, but the
instant his fingers touched her s'eeve
the naughty beauty leaped backward
as if she had seen an apparition. Her
delicate face went pale and her dreamy
eyes azed.
Don touch me, sr!' she exc aim
ed, with a harshness that shocked and
astonished every nearer.
The conductor was a plain, kindly
man, and, flushing with MOI tification
ana chagrn, he turned back to his
pla form, while the young woman
gathered her skirts and passed swift
l., through the door.
We'll, must say RENAL ked an
elderly man who had taken in the
episode over the top Of his newspaper,
"that was about the most painful exhi
bltion Of superciliousness | ever wit
messed iii NY life. She seemed to
think she would be contaminated if
that honest fellew touched the hem of
her garment. P>haw. No wonde
tn, poor are embittered.'
There was a growl Of approval, and
the conductor thrust a smiling face
through the doorway.
"Don't bane de young lady, gents
he said cheerily. "She explained it
all when she was get in off: She
didn' mean ncthin.' You see, she's
been vaccinated and has a sore arm"

Antaxonism of Bell Company.

ttalfst who represents the moneyed inter-
ests which are behind the new company,
was in Washington today and was seen by
a reporter of The Evening Star. He said
1t was evident the Bell Telephone Company
was antagonizing the purpose to place a
rival in the field where it has so long en-
toyed monopoly at high rates.
I'VE have given every assurance OF our
good faith in entering the local telephone
lists" said Mr.. Webb. THE only argument
set up by the Bell telephone representatives
against US was that we could not install our
plant and furnish service at the rates
named in the bill. which are S4S a year for
business and S3e a year for residence
phones, with unlimited service. full metal
lie circuit and single wire. There is
abundant evidence before the Senate COM
mittee controverting this argument, and
kilograms are on file there from the COM
pany in Cleveland. composed Of the leading
capitalists Of that city. in which the rates
and the service are Identical with those pro-
posed by us. and also from st. Louis. whore
similar conditions exist, showing conclusive
ly that the argument of the Bell people is
baSeless.

Vanced such an argument, knowing its alb

A special meeting of the town council

from Mr. R. Walton Moore. attorney for
the corporation, that in taking the sense of
the people the question the council was
not restricted to the general suffrage ouali-
fications. A resolution was thereupon pre-
sented allowing all taxpayers, as we'll as
voters, to participate. Councilmen DePu-
tron, Quick and Ellison opposed the resolu-
tion, holding that neite but those qualified
under the general ELECTION laws could take
part. Councilman Gould supported the
resolution. Councilman Gibson said that
under the resolution women who owned
property and paid taxes could participate
and he was opposed to this. The resolution
fered providing that If the result of the
vote should be in favor of the reDeal of
the ordinance council will comply but that
such action would not affect the state la w

motion of Couneilman DePutron, the reso-
luton was tabled.

After canvassing the field here in Wash
ington," continued Mr.. Webb, 'it has been
definitely determined to install a plant with
a capacity for 5000 telephones, and our es-
Inmates contemplate the installation of such
plant at an expense Of upward of 81, ,O00,-
600. AS demonstration of the demand
for a relief from existing local telephone
conditions, and an earnest of the substan-
tial support our company will receive, we
have already secured 2,110 tve-year abso-
lutte contracts from subscribers and ! ,155
contracts based on the provision that we
secure the franchise. The Bell company
after Its years Of exclusive proprietorship
here, has but 2,51S telephones in the Dis
trtct of Columbia, and Of these 49S are gov
ernment phones.
1T is simply ridiculous" continued Mr.
Webb, Ito assume that modern business men
who are interested in our company and
who are engaged in enterprises Involving
millions of dollars would contemplate tfe
investment of another million and more in

clares will be losing venture
