 Civil liberty and religious freedom have been placed in our keeping as trust and it is our duty to be faithful to that trust and move on and upwards until the peoples of all lands shall enjoy the samo blessings which are ours. Threads of steel have indeed knit us close together, and now we know no North and no South, no East and no West. but hand in hand we are striving for the uplifting and betterment of mankind.

When four years ago America 'let slip the dogs of war and sent her armies and navies to drive the tyrant from Cuba's wasted shores, to- gether in the gloom of the trenches and the ramparts. wrapt in flame stood the sons of the frozen North who wore the blue with those of the sunny South, who wore the grey, to defend the honor of their common country. Side by side and shoul- der to shoulder they fought till the broken power of Spain, in the western world at- tested the fact that the men who made and withstood Picketts charge at Gettys- burg could clasp hands over the graves of their fallen heroes and together shed their blood in defense of human rights and their country's cause.

BRILLIANT RECEPTION
 TO MRS. ROOSEVELT.

Charleston, s. C., April S.-Mrs. Roose- velts reception at the St. Johns Hotel tonight was the most brilliant affair in the recent social history of this city. The St. Johns. or the old "Mills House." as 1t is still called by Charlestonians of the old regime, was in ante bellum days the scene of many notable gatherings of the ultra-exclusive society people, but for many years the ball room has been deserted. The hostelry has been brought to former standard with the advent of the exposition and the first lady in the land was tonight the exposure of all eyes at the most notable reception in this city in forty years. This was. the first Presidents wife to whom a reception has ever been rendered here. President and Mrs. Cleveland visited Charleston on Feb ruary 2S 1888, but Mrs. Cleveland was only here for few hours. Presidents Washington, Monroe and Polk were un- attended by their wives when they visit ed the city.
 Tonight the ball room was eXquisitely decorated for the occasion and was in keeping with the splendid toilettes of the 400 brilliantly gowned women who came to do honor to the Presidents charming wife Mrs. Roosevelt and the ladies of her party occupied a dais near the Southern end of the room and received the guests who were introduced by Mrs. Andrew Simonds, Jr., of this city. The reception began at g o'clock and lasted until after midnight.

 Visits Fort Sumpter.
 During the day the President accompa- nied by few of his party and members of the reception committee, boarded "a small steamer and were taken over tp Fort Sumter. A company of artillery was standing at attention when the President landed, and immediately went through gun drill, the immense 12-inche disappear ing guns being manipulated in manner to excite the admiration of all. A tour was then made through the fort. A small hurricane was blowing at the time, and although the President was wearing a soft hat 1t was caught and went soaring into the air the President making vain effort to catch it. Private Frederick Dent of the artillery corps came to the rescue and quickly recovered 1t. President Roose- welt grasped him by the hand and thanked him most cordially. He also com plimented the men on their expert hand ling of the guns.
 Upon arriving at the wharf the Presi- dent, escorted by troop of cavalry, was driven to the palatial residence of MT. An tion was held and a buffet lunch served, after which the party was escorted to the St. Johns Hotel and a brief rest taken, preparatory to attending the ban quet at the Charleston Hotel
