Yes, August Flower still has the

August Flower to clean out the system

AN UNFORTUNATE DANCE.-Diplo-
matte and social circles in Havana are
discussing an incident which occurred In
President Palma's palace on Thursday
night. On the evening in question the
President of the Republic gave an elabo-
rate banquet to the diplomatic corps.
Among the guests was Mrs. Squiers, vile
of the United States Minister. Much
wine was drunk and the affair was de-
cidedly festal. All went well until the
following morning, when a pro-Spanish
newspaper appeared with an account OF
the event. This contained the state
ment that at the close of the banquet
Mrs. Squiers had encountered Captain
Poey, President Palma's aide-de-camp,
on one of the landings of the palace
staircase and had flung her arms about
him and insisted upon having a dance.
The captain was taken by surprise, and
almost before he knew it was whirling
about the landing, while group OF pal
ace servants looked on with admiration.
The Spanish paper then boldly declared
that Mrs. Squiers had taken too much
wine. OF course, the publication aroused
an immediate clamor and Minister
Squiers, it is said, made formal protest
to the Cuban government. AS a result
of this, cabinet meeting was held and
the Secretary of Justice was instructed
to call the attention of the governments
attorney to the article

THE CHARGE of Judge Tcbbs to the
Jury which is to investigate the lynch
ing of the negro Craven i'll Loudoun
county recently should be read carefully
by all persons capable of going OFF half
cooked. He said many things which
should be seriously considered by all the
members of a community especially
those of whom better things are expected.
He makes the statement that most OF
those who were known to have composed
the mob were people who are supposed
to set proper examples. The judge
structures are equally applicable wher-
ever lynchings have occurred. Mobs
are not solely composed Of the irresponsi-
BILE. but are almost invariably encouraged
by the presence and acts of representa-
tive people and in nearly every case
by some who are holding public posi-
tons. 1t takes a community a long
time to recuperate from a thoughtless
act. The blood has barely dried from
the hands of those who on two occasions
in late years convnlsed this generally
peaceable city by butcherirg people
who should at least have been given
opportunities TO defend themselves be-
fore courts of justice. 1t is generally
admitted now that grave blunders were
made on both occasions, and most of
those who temporarily lost their heads
have been taught lessons it is hoped
they will never forget.

TUESDAY EVENING, AUGUST Y, lsE

TpE Commissioner of Pensions yester-
dav gave out the statement that an er-
roneous impression seems to exist among
many ex-Confederate soldiers regarding
the Interpretation to be put upon the
recent act of Congress relieving union
soldiers OF the disability for having
previously served in the Confederate
army. The idea seems to prevail that
under this act the government IS autho-
rized to pension ex-Confederate soldiers
and the result is that the Pension once
is being deluged with applications from
the former wearers of the gray. The
commissioner explained that the law IN
question does not contemplate the pen
sionino of ex-Confederate soldiers, but
that it was designed solely to remove the
disability which so long existed IN the
case of men who were impressed into the
Confederate service and later Joined
the union army. The above is a
sad commentary on the spirit OF
some-it is hoped not many-who
fought under the stars and bars. There
has been much of late years to disgust
people with some who were members OF
the Confederate army. While weallrecog-
nize the fact that the cause for which so
many fought and equally as many lad
down their lives is lost the purity OF
those principles should be equally as
sacred now among the survivors as when
they were following the fortunes OF the
Confederacy. All, however, are now cItl-
zens of one country and are living un-
der one flag, but, at the same time, ex-
Confederates should have no apologies "a
offer for their four years course when
they believed they were cOntending SIM
ply for their rights. They now have no
tayors to ask from the federal govern
ment after they have paid their taxes
and submitted to the laws of the land.
No matter what else might come their
way in the future, pensions from their
conouerors should not be dreamed OF but
sternly repudiated by all who wore the
grey. The object of the law is simply TO
remove the disabilities ofprobably cor
poraPs guard who say they were COM
PEELED to serve in the Confederate army
but who afterwards became federal SOL
diers. Whether they were or were not
impressed into the Southern army Is
matter of no concern now and none Will
attempt to controvert their assertions.
Let them draw on the public crib, but
"tell it not in Gath" that ex-Confeder-
ates who surrendered at Appomattox are
applicants for pensions from the United
States government.
