Death of Capt. D. c. Martin.

One by one the old Veterans fall
asleep. A few more yenrs and not
one, even among the youngest of those
to shoulder arms in defense Of the fair
Southland during the struggle Of 01 -G5,
will be left to recito to the rising gen
eratiOns those unwritten incidents OF
the war which give 80 clear an insight
into Southern character and Southern
chiyalry. Capt. 3: g. Martin is dead.
At his home in Williamson, about 5
o'clock Tuesday afternoon Of last
week, while quietly seated in n chair,
death came to him and numbered him
with the great army that is daily pass
ing into the great beyond. Had he
been summoned q few days later. he
would have finished his I'D year in
this life. He was born January 1st,
1880.
Anderson County was always his
home and he has been prominent,
useful citizen. When the war clouds
of 61-G5 were gathering he was prompt
in volunteering his services and aided
IN raising a company, OF 100 gallant
men with j. w. Bremlet as Captain.
This was Company D, Eighteenth Reg
First J lieutenant, This company did
gallan. service and Lieutenant Martin
was promoted to tho Captaincy. The
war being over, the devotion of the
deceased to bis County showed itself
In the reconstruction poriOd in the firm
stands always taken by him; and when
in 1876 the opportunity to redeem the
State under the leadership of the gal
liant Hampton presented itself. none
gave evidence Of more energy and
prOmptness than Is. c. Martin.
Under the old Constitution the de-
ceased served several terms as mem bel
OF the County Board of Commissioners,
serving acceptably and with honor.
OF late years the intirmatives of age
prevented his taking q leading part in
political affairs, but his interest never
abated. and to the last that uncOm
promising firmness which characterized
him through life, was plainly noticea-
BILE.

i'he deceased was dev0ut member

Many years deacon. He was respect
ed and hOnOred and his well-epent life
is bright heritage to his children.
His illness Immediately preceding his
death was only snch as results FROM old

The Abbey's Funeral Roll.

Some notable names have been added
to the roll call of the Abbey under
Dean Bradley. Charles Darwin, Arch
bishop French-himself once Dean of
Westminster-Robert Browning, Alfred
Tennyson and William Ewart Glad
stone are among the names that have
been added to the burial roll of the Alb
bey under Dean Bradley's supervision,
and nobody will quarrel with them.
1t will surprise many people, perhaps,
to know that only ten persons have
been buried in the Abbey in the last
twenty years, and that only two Of
these were women-Lady Louisa Per.
cy and Mrs. Gladstone. These, with
two poets, two architects, an arch
bishop, a scientist, queens printer
and statesman, complete the roll OF
the great dead who have been buried
in Westminster Abbey since DIR. Brad.

Woman's Lounging Robe.

Pretty and attractive negligees be-
long in every woman's wardrobe and
are economical as well as useful and
comfortable, inasmuch as nothing is
more eXtravagant than lounging In a
gown designed for other uses. The
stylish model shown in the large draw
ing is admirable in many ways and Is
suited to variety of materials, lawn
dimty and the like, chailie, albatross
yelling and similar light weight wools;
but as shown is of pale blue lawn with
trimming of white embroidery and
blue louisine ribbons.
The robe is simply made with Il
smooth fitting yoke that can be cut
high or square neck, to which the full
front and the Watteau-like back are
attached The back is gathered and
hangs loose and the under-arm cores
curve gracefully to the figure. The
front is gathered to the yoke and
closes invisibly at the left side. The
elbow sleeves are gathered at the lower
edges and are finished with graduated
frills, but the long sleeves are in
bishop style with straight narrow
cuffs.
To cut this robe in the medium size
ten and a half yards of material
twenty seven inches wide, ten yards
thirty-two inches wide or five and a
half yards forty-four ipches wide will
be required, with fouL' snd half yards
of embroidery and one and half
yards Of insertion and two and a half
yards of narrow edging to trim as IL
lustrated; or half yard of tucking. two
and half yards OF embroidery and
three and quarter yards OF insertion
when large high neck aud long sleeves
are Desired.

System in Housework.

The good housewife makes plans
over night for the work which must be
done the following day Probably a
considerable share of it falls to spe-
cial day in each week, but there will be
a number of things to do which are out
of the regular routine, and for these
she must plan so that she will not have
them all crowding upon her at once
and either being neglected because
they are so many or taken in hand and
carried through at the cost of health
and spirits.
A desire for economy sometimes will
incite 4 woman to a most foolish ex-
penditure of energy. which is really a
very bad kind of extravaganza For
instance, she has been particularly
busy all day and is feeling tired when
in comes neighbor who tells her of
the great flannel sale. In moment
she thinks Of little Popsy's flannel pet
ticoats-the child really must have new
ones-and off she rushes to secure the
material and returns, delighted to have
got it at a few pennies under the
usual price. AS matter Of fact, that
flannel was a dear purchase 1t was
like the proverbial straw which broke
the camePs back, for the next day the
housewife Is either moping about, feel
ing incapable Of work, or she is pros
trated with a severe headache. Plan
ming would save this kind of thing,
and prevent the crowding into one day
the work of TWO.
In planning and estimating q days
work some allowance should always
be made for Interruptions and for the
work taking longer than was antici-
pated. With too many "irons in the
fire" such hindrances as a visitor or
having to console a crying child in
some little trouble make it difficult
to keep that calm, sweet temper which
is necessary to the woman who is not
merely the handspring of the machin-
cry Of the household, but it's good an
gel, who makes it home indeed to all
who dwell there.-Washington Star.

The hand shaking of the Empress
was not a perfunctory function, for she
shook the hand of each person and
looked keenly into her eyes, and dis
tinctly separated her from her kind.
She has that rare possession of so much
