H. D. Capers of South Carolina; Felix

ASSISTANTS performed their duty well.
The vast crowd had soon filled the
doors, windows and portico of the Capitol
and spread over the ground in the front,
when the inauguration ceremony began
as arranged on the front steps
THE President occupied seat on the
portico with the Vice-President seated on
his right and Hon. Howell Cobb on his
left. Governor Moore occupied seat on
the platform Immediately below, where
were also seated the members of Con-
gress facing the Presidents stand.
THE ceremony was opened by an I'M
pressive prayer from the venerable Rev.
Dr. Manly. Then Mr.. Howell Cobb, Pres
ident of the Congress. administered the
oath of office and the President delivered
his inaugural address in calm ana Tor
chile manner-the immense concourse now
and then manifesting their appreciation
by vociferous applause as he would strike
the keynotes of Southern independence.
THE ladies wreathed him with flowers
and ten thousand hearts beat high with
Joy, admiration and hope for the admi-
ration of the new President.
No man, not even General Washington,
was ever called to preside over a people
with more general reclamation and con-
fidence than General Davis. His past
services and spotless private and public
character are the surest guarantees that
he will not disappoint the just expecta-
tons of the country"

Minor Matters,

In the evening the President held levee
at Estelle Hall, and a reception at the
Executive Mansion was held after the
family removed here. Mrs. Davis says
in her book, speaking of her arrival in
the city:
when we reached the hotel, where the
President was temporarily lodged. the
Provisional Congress had assembled. ne
had been inaugurated and the day of my
arrival the Confederate flag had been
hoisted by the daughter of Col. Robert
Tyler, and the granddaughter of the ex-
President. The family were at that time
living in Montgomery. Mr.. Davis was
very averse to relinquishing the old nag.
and insisted that a different battle-fiag
would make distinction enough between
the combatants; hut he was overruied
and a new one substituted with blue
union containing the stars in white at
equal distances; the flag had one broad
white and two red stripes the same width
The house chosen for us was gentle
mans residence, roomy enough for our
purposes, on the corner of street look
ing toward the State Capitol. There were
many charming people there, who were
all intent on kind service to us; our mem
ory of Montgomery was one of affection

Dancer SIGNAL in the Aims.

According to the international agree
ment recently made in regard tothe
danger signal in the Alps, six shots or
movements of light will be recognized
as a call for assistance. In cases of
stomach, liver and bowel troubles, it is
always wise to heed the first danger sig
nal, and give Nature the assistance she
is calling for. The best medicine to aid
the stomach in digesting the food, TO
stir up the liver, or to open up the clog
ged bowels, is Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers. 1t is backed By record Of fifty
years of cures. Be sure to try the Bit
tiers if you are sufferer from indiges'
ton, dyspepsia, tiatulency, constipation
or biliousness. Our private stamp is

Railroad Notes.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Compa-
ny has just announced an increase Of
10 per cent in the wages of all the en-
ployees of that great corporation. 1t
it stated that the increase is a volun-
tary one, but it is an open secret that
the men were organizing to demand
higher wages to meet the increased
cost of living. The company has such
an enormous amount of business to
handle now that it cannot afford to
have a strike, so it wisely advanced
wages before it was asked to do 60.
1t thus gets high praise and at the
same time saves trouble. 1t is said
that other railroads will follow the
Pennsy's example.
The freight business of the Penn
sylvania aud B. & o. Railroads is 80
heavy that it is almost impossible to
handle it promptly. Nearly all the
side tracks are filed with cars. and
the yards at the ends of the divisions
are kept from being blockaded only
by the most strenuous efforts. The
roads haven't enough engines to move
the train, and the locomotive build
ers cannot supply the demand upon
them for new ones.
It is said that the Norfolk & Wes-
tern, the Cumberland Valley and the
Pennsylvania Railroads are planning
to run solid vestibule trains through
from southern points to Philadelphia
and New York. The equipment is to be
frst-class and will include handsome
Pullman sleepers. Several of the new
coaches intended for this service
were sent south through Shepherds
town on Monday.
The Norfolk and Western Railway
announces that all section foremen
who have served FIVE years will re-
ceive an annual pass, good over the
entire system, and Is days vacation
annually, with full pay. All opera
tors and station agents will also re-
ceive an increase of salary.
The annual report of the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad shows that the gross
earnings of the road the last fiscal year
were $5l,l78,060; operating e1-
pense., $32,989,563: net earnings
from operation, $l8,269,497.
