awaiting the train when an elderly
chap with yarn jacket end in over

or two and asked:

"My company aud gave perfor-
nance there last evening-yes," re.
piled Russell, politely.

reflection on those who fought against
US, but rather, as prefer to consider
it, prophecy Of the time, now at
hand, when all American soldiers who
died for what they believed right will
oc considered patriots even though
mistaken.
''It is true that since the existing
simple monuments were erected most
of the Union dead have been removed
to Arlington, but they are not all re-
moved. The plowman has frequent
ly revealed this fact, though now no
distinction can be discerned between
friend and foe. The duty of the Gov
ernment, however, is clear, whether
we consider it's duty to the owners Of
the soil or its duty to the dead and
living Or its duty to itself"
Manassas itself is surprisingly at
tractivc little Southern town. 1t has

which most travellers have OF Manas-

express train, which usually pulls up
here in the morning just as they are
waking up in preparation for arrival in
Washington, thirty three miles away.

the part of the town near the railroad

known in Washington, where he spent
many years of his life. Nlr. Crcscot
was South Carolinian by birth,
scholar Of broad attainments, states
man of conspicuous ability. At W.
rious times he was iutrusted by the
State department with commissions of
high Importance, involving profound
knowledge of public affairs and incor-
ruptible fidelity, and these he always
discharged to the grateful satisfaction
of the Government and to his own
honor and renown. He was recogniz.
ed on all hands as one of the most
gifted men in political life, gentle
man of lofty ideals, a patriot of the
purcst type. His work was not done
in the limelight Of notoriety or to
the accompaniment Of newspaper vo-
ciferation. 1t was done brilliantly
and conscicntiously, however, and
both at home and abroad he is re-
membered as publicist of profound
and versatile attainments. In the in
scriptioD which is quoted above he
discloses his admiration Of courage,
devotion, patriotic virtue. Fine as
the attribute is in form, noble as are
its periods and cadences, the ius pira-
tion that breathes in every line re-
veals a reverence for everything that
is best and most excellent in man.

Tribute to Southern Yalor.

Carved on monument at Colum-
bia, S. G., dedicated to the memory of
the dead soldiers Of South Carolina, is
the following inscription
This Monument
Perpetuates the Memory
Of those who,
True to the instincts Of their birth,
Faithful to the teachings of their Faith
ers,
Constant in their love for the State,
Died in the performance of their Duty,
Who
Have glorifed fallen cause
BY the simple manhood of their lives
And the heroism of Death,
And who
In the dark hours of imprisonment,
In the hopelessness of the hospital,
In the short, sharp agony Of the field,
Found support and consolation
In the belief
That at home they would not be for
gotten.
Let the Stranger
Who may in future times
Read this Inscription,
Recognize nat these were Men
Whom Power could not corrupt,
Whom Death could not terrify,
Whom Defeat could not disbcnor,
And let their Virtues plead
For just Judgment
VI the cause in which they perished,
Let the South Caroliniene
OF another generation
Remember
That the State taught them
How to live and How to die.
And that from her broken fortunes
She has preserved for her children
The priceless Treasure of their Mem.

Teaching all who may claim
The same Birthright
That Truth, Courage, and Patriotism
Endure Forever.

driven into the mountains and left to
shift for themselves.
The sheep men have been threatened
with instant death if they 60 after their
flocks.
The sheep are now the prey of wild
animals, and if they escape this death
the loss will be very heavy as they are
nearly all ewes and lambs.
The scene of the lawlessne is lis

TEXAS FLOODS.
High Water in Lone Star State Is |
Receding.


Dallas, Tex, July 28.-During the
past "a hours the aspect of the food
situation in Texas has grown brighter.
The heavy rains have ceased through
out the greater portion of the state and
the water has begun to recede in all
the rivers and creeks. If the fair
weather continues some of the Texas
railroads will begin running their trains
on time, while regular traffic will be
re-established on others within three or
four days.
The cotton belt tracks are washed ont
for 26O feet just west of Sheridan. The
Missouri, Kansas & Texas bridge at
Hillsboro has been repaired and trains
were run over it yesterday, although
the track is still in bad condition.
The International and Great Northern
has resumed traffic north of Palestine.
The damage done to property of that
road lie said to be very great. Nearly
l 900 feet of the track is washed out at
Richland creek, and as much more at
White Rock creek, besides many
smaller washouts.
A Mr.. Hardy. who attempted to cross
swollen stream at Elms Springs, was
drowned. This makes five drownings

CUBANS AGITATED|
ANNEXATION SENTIMENT sTIRS UP
FIERY ISLANDERS.
Claim the Lads That Loafed
Around American Resorts Dur
ing the Dark Days OF the War
Returned to Grab All the Glory
and SpOils.

Havana, July 25.-The annexation
movement has caused some feeling
among those Cubans who want the
island to have fair chance in trying to
solve the problem of self government.
The anti-annexationists say the cham
pions of annexation consist largely of
men, who, when the war was on, spent
the time at watering places in the
United States or Mexico, and who,
when the war was over, flocked back to
Cuba, expecting to get the lions share
of the spoils, to which those who had
fought for independence were entitled.
The reports of possible disturbances
in Cuba do not seem to have any SUBJ
stantial foundation. The Cubans real
'ize that the eyes of the world are upon
them as we'll as the United States, and
their pride is at stake. Some of the
annexationists say that the United
States will want only pretext to tell
the Cubans they had trial and had
been found wanting.
A few of these enthusiasts actually
imagine that if somebody were to gather
party OF few hundred men together,
make dash for the woods, rob few
pastures and burn few plantations, as
soon as the news was flashed to Wash
ington, troops would at once be order
ed to Cuba and Intervention would be at
hand again. 1t is such talk as this that
has made the anti-annexationists go
bitter against the annexationists.
1t must be said, however, that there
are in the ranks of the annexationists
men of high character who are perfectly
conscientious in their advocacy of an
nexa:ion, and have no personal motives
in wishing to bring it about.
Cuban planters have an organization
known as Circulo de Haciendos, a
society which has been fostering the
movement for annexation, and it is
said, regular campaign for annextion
will be started.

HELD AS HOSTAGE.
Sutton Of Binadayan Kept in Gus

tOuy ny hmcrACauS.
Manila, July 26.-Capt. John j. P.
Pershing, of the Fifteenth cavalry, who
is in command of the Lanao (Mindanao)
expedition, has arrested the sultan of
Binadayan as hostage for the delivery
to him of the Moros who on June % at
tackled two Americans.
The sultan offered to produce the dead
body of one of the Americans, a relative
of the leader of the party which attack
ed them and to surrender ten slaves,
but Capt. Pershing refused to entertain
the suggestion.
The sultan then ordered his followers
to produce the guilty Moro.
On Tuesday one of the offenders was
brought into the camp of the Ameri-
cans. He was horribly mutilated. Be-
fore dying he confessed having partici-
pated in the ambush of the Americans.
Longul, the leader OF the attack, has
fortified himself and defies the sultan
of Binadayan's followers to capture
him.
