our MEMoRIAL GRAvEs.
Sleep noble Dead! lost to the eye,
Yet to the Heart as ever dear:

Sleep noble Dead! lost to the eye,
Yet to the Heart as ever dear
Tho hearing not the mourner's sigh
Receive the mourner5,s grateful tear!
Thy work is done! tho sad the tale
That marks thy path OF glory run;
Yet ever shall thy fame prevail,
As much as if We victory won!
'Tis victory thus in death to sleep,
When battling for the rights of man;
Long shall the nation surely keep
In mind the work for them began!
Sleep, noble dead! BE here thy rest;
SO fondly rendered by our hand,
We lay these tokens on thy breast,
At glory's and at loves command.
The ladies then proceeded in every di-
rection, through the picturesque grounds
of the Cemetery, TO place their boquets,
garlands and varied floral Devices in ev-
cry conceivable style of tasteful arrange
ment upon the graves. Those silent
mounds were all heaped with the rarest
flowers, while from the head boards hung
wreaths woven by delicate fingers 1t
was indeed a spectacle of rare and eX
pressive charm, which fingers yet on the
mind like the remembrance of beautiful
dream.
After leaving the Cemetery, the ladies,
in detached groups, repaired to The City
grave yard, where they paid similar hon
ors to the remains of Generals hnder-
son. Branch, Pettigrew, and the other
numerous distinguished and gallant dead
who rest within its sacred precincts.
We trust that the touching and beauti-
full custom, which has been inaugugaled
of meeting around the sepulchers of cur
departed heroes once in each year with
floral offerings, may be continued, and
that the memories of these brave men,
their sacrifices and sufferings, their cour-
age and their fortitude, may he kept ever
green to the latest generation.

LOSE A GOOD MAN.
Work That W. H. Knapp Has Done for
the Rochester Hospital.

Rochester, July 10.-One of the
good men whose services will be lost
to the state through the operation of
the board of control system is W. 81.
Knapp, stewart and financial manager
of the hospital for the insane in this
city. Mr.. Knapp, when his present
Office expires by law on Aug. 1, will
become treasurer and assistant to the
manager of the Rochester Wooden
Manufacturing company.
Rarely has a..''public official ever
made. "a. better record than Mr.. Knapp
has in the eleven years during which
he. has served the hospital. In that
time the hospital farm has grown from
4SO to 1, 400 acres and many buildings
have been added besides extensive re-
pairs and remodelings of old ones, the
cost amounting to 1915, 900. The
general expenditures during Mr..
Knapp's term of Office have exceeded
So, 600. 900.
: His good management is shown by
the fact that while in 1890 it cost $171
per capita to support the hospital, it
cost but $143 last year, or 50. rs week.
This is said to be lower than the ex-
penses at any other similar institution
in the country
This reduction in cost has not been
wrought at the expense of the comfort
or welfare of the patients, there hav-
ing, in fact, been a distinct better
ment in these respects.
The other attaches of the hospital
exceedingly regret the necessity of
parting with Mr.. Knapp and fear that
the new regime will not do as we'll as
he did.
He will have very good position
with growing business institution
which now has more than 100 en-
ployes.

THE SOUTH'S PROGRESS.
The Awakening Which Has Come Over
1t in Late Years.


st. Louis Globe Democrat
In railroad construction as in other
activities the south is pushing rapidly
to the front. According to the Rail
way Age there were 1918 miles of rail
way track laid between January 1,
1901, and June 30. Two-thirds of this,
or 1876 miles, were laid in the south
ern states. The other third, or 545
miles. is all that the rest of the country
the far west, the middle west and
the east-have to show in the way of
track laying in the first half of 1901.
Texas leads this year, with 300 miles,
as it led last year, and Oklahoma is
second in the number of miles of track
constructed.
Until recent years the south was far
behind the rest of the older states in
railway in operation, but is pulling
up fast these days. The comparative
absence of railroads in the confederacy
in 1876 seriously hampered that sec
ton. The north was far ahead in rail
roads, and thus had an advantage in
the quickness with which it could con-
centrate its troops. which told heavily
in it's favor. Even after the close of
the war there were dozen years in
which, though the south's poverty and
general decentralization, comparatively
little railroad building or business &C
tivity of any sort was INDUCED in,
but change in all respects began in
the sos, and the south has been ex-
banding rapidly ever since.
AS usual, it is the part of the south
which lies to the west of the Missis
sippi which is showing the greatest
growth. st. Louis territory is ex-
banding faster than any other section.
Oklahoma and Texas are showing
gains in population and in business
which are the surprise of the country.
The growth is not of the boom order,
but is solid, and promises to be con-
tinuous. All this is reflected in the
increase in the business activities of
st. Louis. The expansion of 80 per
cent. in the bank clearings of this city
in the past SIX months, Eas compared
with the same time in 1900, is show
ing which hardly has parallel in the
case of any other large city in the
United States. This section of the
country is high on the wave of pros
perity.
