Presidents Confederate kinsman

tor in our unequal struggle. Mr.. Da-
Wis knew the man, and Capt. Bulloch
was again sent abroad to build and
equip Confederate cruisers. The
Alexandria, Florida, Alabama, Shen'
andoah, and ironclad Stonewall, all
built and equipped by him, show his
indefatigable perseverance; and all
these ships were eminently suited for
their purposes. Their successful ca
reers reflect great credit upon the
superior abilities of this famous ma :
val officer. The most meager de-
tails of the work performed by Capt.
Bulloch would occupy too much space
in your magazine, but when the his
tory of the Confederate navy comes to
be written no name shall stand high
er on the role of fame than that of
James Dunwodie Bullock.
Irwin Stephen Bullock, younger
brother entered the Confederate army
as midshpman. and in 1862 reported
on board the Alabama as one of her
Junior officers By strict attention
to duty he rose rapidly, and acted as
master or navigating officer during
the cruise of that ship.
After the fight of Cherbourgh, and
upon the fitting out of the Shenandoah,
Young Bullock was commissioned mas

the elder Bullock with the younger,

President Roosevelt had two uncles
in the Confederate navy both dis

for the other. Permit me to set you
right as to the services performed
by these gallant officers.
Capt James D. Bulloch was
lieutenant in the old navy of the date
of 1S40 to 1871, and, after serving sew
oaral years as lieutenant, resigned his
commission and entered the merchant
service, commanding steamship run
ming between New York and New
Orleans. The beginning of the war
ship, Bienville, and overtures were
made to him by the Governor of Lou
fsiara to turn the s,.lip over to the
State authorities. These, however.
he resisted, even to the extent OF
having his loyalty to the Southern
cause suspected. and it was not until
he had satisfied his honor by deliver
ing his ship to her owners in New
York tnat he felt at liberty to en-
Brace his beloved South.
Capt Bulloch was Immediately
appointed commander in the Confed

This is perhaps, the most delicious
vet least known of all salads. Select
large, plump oysters, allowing six to
each person. Parboil them in their
own juice and drain. Cut the oys-

equal quantity of fresh, crisp lettuce
broken into small bits. Stir with the
mixture a dressing made after the
following receipt, which is admira BILE
for all meat salads.

PHYSICIANS PUZZLED.

St. ALBERT, Mo-, Aug. 4th.-Mr. E. R.
Langendoefer of this place suffered
very severely with a peculiar case OF
Kidney Trouble which completely baf-
fed the skill of the local physicians
and instead of getting any better he
was gradually growing worse. He
says: "a friend advised me to take
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and after had
used two boxes I was entirely cured
and have not since had the slightest
symptom of the return of my trouble.
81 had tried all the surrounding ply
sicians, but they did me no good, and
instead of getting better I grew worse
till I used Dodd's Kidney Pills.

suffering with Kidney Trouble that
Dodd's Kidney Pills will cure them, for
they cured me satisfactorily and com
pletely when all the doctors had failed

mirrors-a decided advantage when
one hasn't maid to rely upon.
When treating the face the mirror
is also an excellent accessory. By at
taching it to the window sill or casing,
the best possible light is thrown on
the skin, so that blemishes and disfig-
uring marks are clearly shown up.
Altogether, this adjustable mirror
will be found decidedly useful among
my lady's up-tO-date toilet articles.
Since curling irons were declared
harmful to the hair land nobody but
an experienced couture dares to manip-
ulate them, all manner of devices have
been invented for the purpose of i'm
parting a natural looking as well as
| a lasting undulation to ones locks.
While some of these arrangements
are really good, others are absolutely
| worthless, and in the end do more
harm than singing irons.
A new shell hairpin which seems to
supply the much desired wave is rec
commended as being perfectly safe and
simple to manage.
Tortoise shell, of course, is far bet
| ter than wires or irons, as it does not
break the hair, and this little affair is
made to hold the hair, which is loosely
woven around the shank, while q
small clasp holds it in place at the
/ top
Another equally simple contriyance
for producing soft waves in the hair
without heat or injury is made OF
rubber, in coIors to match the shade
| of the hair. This resembles bodkir
more than anything else, for it is fiat
about a quarter of an inch at the
broadcast part, and has small ring al
one end, while tiny knob finishes the
other and through the center runs q
narrow slit.
The strand of hair is first drawn
through this opening, and with the un
even ends firmly held in place the hail
is loosely wound around the curler
while a rubber cord loops into the
ring and is pulled out and caught OF
the opposite knob.
The soft rubber does not break the
hair, and it will be found that undula
tions are secured in a much shorter
time with this curler than by means O:

and the holder thereof can vote in
her stead.
"When L was in New Orleans they
were voting on the proposition to is
sue bonds for the extensive sewer sys-
tenn. Miss Gordon undertook the
work of collecting proxies to vote in
favor of the bonds. For awhile she
paid no special attention to the per-
sons who signed as witnesses, but her
attention was called to the fact that
while a woman could sign a proxy as
principal, she could not sign as wit
ness. Consequently a good many
proxies had to be made out over
again.
TITS the same way with this will
made by Mrs. Davis. Two women
signed as witnesses, but their attesta-
ton will not be considered in a Louis
lana court, according to the way un-
derstand things. A legal document
must conform to the laws of the local
ity in which it is made, hence, it will
be necessary for the Alabama women
if they want to be sure of the will, to
have it out once more and in strict
conformity with local law"

TO PROMOTE MATRIMONY.
Variation Upon Old Marriage-Bene-
fit Association Is Started by
Western AttOrncys

. Two attorneys of Sioux City, Neb.,
have formed novel beneficiary asso-
citation. 1t is variation upon the old
marriage benefit association idea. 1t
is entitled an "association to promote
matrimony, insure happy homes, and
a reasonable start in life for young
couples" The plan is as follows:
Members pay into the order $1.5O
a month for two years. If married at
the end of that time they are entitled
to draw 5000 from the treasury. By
paying that sum for four years $500
is guaranteed. By keeping up the pay
ments for six, eight or ten years the
payor is entitled to draw 5000, $500 or
$1,000.
Policies are Cancelled in three ways:
BY marriage, death and nonpayment
of dues. The promoters have figured
the matter out from the actuaries'
point of view, and assert that it can
be made paying concern, lapses,
deaths and income from funds insur-
ing working out of the financial
proposition.
The plan bears some resemble nce
to the diamond tontine plan, whereby
a man paid in 500 in two years, and
got a diamond worth S165 or $3.50 in
cash. The first contractors were paid
in full, but there were so few lapses
that most of the concerns went broke
inside of three years.

STRIKE FOR ICE CREAM.
Choir Boys in New York Church Re.
fuse to Sing Because Refresh
ments Are Withheld.

Because ten boys did not receive
the ice cream that had been prom
ised them by Rev. DIR. Stuart Crockett
before he sailed for Europe nearly
two weeks ago, they went on a
strike, and ChoirmasteT Arthur Fare
had to conduct the musical services
in the Protestant Episcopal church
of the Transigurat Brooklyn,
with only six boys. The strikers oc-
cupied seats in the auditorium, and
calmly announced that if somebody
guaranteed to buy the ice cream they
would sing, but not one of the
wealthy members of the congrega-
ton volunteered to crafty their de-
sire.
Rehearsal and Sunday nights were
always anticipated with great pleas
ure by the boys. Rector Crockett al
ways furnished an abundant supply
of ice cream on those nights, and the
boys after awhile began to look for
1T. Knowing this, DIR. Crockett prom
ised the boys that he would leave
enough money with Choirmaster
Fare before he sailed to celebrate his
departure with an ice cream supper.
Mr.. Fare set the date~for the sup
per week ago last Wednesday, but
forgot to bring the money along
with him on that night, and it was
postponed until the following Tues
day night. The same thing happened
Tuesday night, and it was set for
last Thursday. Only eight of the
boys, however, appeared on that
evening. Unwilling to postpone it
again, Mr. Fare intrusted them with
the money that belonged to the alb
sent ones.
When the absent ones appeared and
asked for their ice cream money they
were told to forget it. They ap-
peaIed to Mr.. Fare, and demanded
that he make good DR.. Crockett's
promise, which the choirmaster de-
clined to do. A strike was immedi-
ately declared by the disgruntled
boys.

WOMEN IN LOUISIANA.
They Can Vote on Tax Propositions
But Cannot Act as witnesses
to n Signature.

''It will be rather disappointing for
the Alabama. women in charge of the
Jefferson Davis relics at Montgomery
to learn they have made an error, -
said a visitor at Birmingham to an
Age-Herald reporter.
"a few weeks ago, at their conven-
ton, it was announced that Mrs. Davis
had conveyed these relics of her IL
lustrious husband by will to the or
ganization. The document, a s printed
in full, showed that it was executed in
New Orleans, duly signed by Mrs. Da-
Wis and two women of the committee
appointed to attend to the matter. APP
parently the document fills all legal re-
quirements, and in most states it would
be so, but not in Louisiana. Law in
that state was fashioned on the old
French model, which subordinated
women very much in legal way. AS
a result, woman cannot be witness
in the signature of a legal document.
Such being the case, the will made by
Mrs. Davis is void

strongly few years ago. Women who

WEEDS AND wATERMELoNs..
Sam Is Given a Word OF advice ABous
the Weeds by HIS NeighbOr
from the Rhine.

''WeH, how's crops?" said one
jOviai-looking gentleman to another
jovialIooking gentleman, according
to the Detroit Free Press.
Crops are booming" the subur-
ban dweller answered. ''You Just
ought to come out and see how
things on the farm are climbing
along. We will have homegrown
watermelons- before you have time
to turn around. I've planted an acre
IN watermelons this year"
Hal hal" laughed the other man.
''Watermelons always remind me of
Sam
what about Sam?''
when Sam began to farm he de-
cIared that he was going to keep
weeds off his farm if it took every
cent he earned and worked him to
death besides; he simply was not GO
ing to have weed on the place. He
lived up to his high ideal, too (and
his farm was as neat as a parlor-
not. stick or a stone out of place.
Everybody that went out to see his
farm came back and Dragged SO
about it, so that Sam and his wife
were just overrun with visitors. Peo-
pie that they had never laid eyes on
went out to see them-said they had
heard so much about his tidy farm
that they couldn't resist driving out
TO look at it.
Just like you, Sam planted water
melons. Weeds always grow like
mad in watermelon patch; and
Sans weeds nearly drove him crazy.
But he routed them; there wasn't a
| leaf to be seen in that patch but
watermelon leaves. When the water
melons came on, however, they got
as big as little gourds and wouldn't
grow another bit-just dried up and
dropped off. Of course, Sam was
nightly worried at the way his wa
termeIons acted and didn't know
what to do; but he kept on wedding
no weeds got a chance, even if the
melons did act queer.
"One day an old Dutch woman
came along and leaned on the fence
while he was wedding his melon
patch.
' Mister Sam she cried, wat for
you do dat, hey? Shust you let dem
weeds alone; watermelons won't
grow less dey got some weeds for
shade-de sun burns 'em up. Mine
watermelon got weeds, and dey grow
bully. Shust you let dem weedts
alone, Nishter Sam
'Sam took the hint from his kind
old country neighbor, and his water
melons then came along all right
