TRIALS OF AN EDITOR.

Colonel W. O. p. Breckenridge, the
veteran politician and former congress
man, has passed through the vicissi'
tudes of battle and the enervstinG
strife of political contest, but he didn't
know what trouble was until he got
into the newspaper business and tried
to stack up against the printer. He is
editor of the Lexington Herald, and
the other day wrote an interesting
account of the battle OF Shiloh.
The only thing that appeared strange
in the article was the statement that
under the command of General
Bragg its 1.-THE army's) morals suffer
ed" Some of the old veterans look
cd aghast, and Colonel Breckenridge
himself was unable to eat any break
fast. When he had sufficiently recov-
cred. he thus explained it:
For oar Sunday issue we wrote
an article on the battle of Shiloh, in
which, in speaking of the Army of the
Tennessee, @. S. A., we wrote; But
under the command of General Bragg
its morale suffered this sentence was
published just as we wrote it, with
the change of a single letter, and yet
that changed the entire sense and style
of the sentence, and when we read
the sentence Sunday morning it took
all of our lifelong rearing on the
shorter catechism and the Confession
of Faith to prevent what Justice
Harlan described as q blasphemous
silence. II was published, But under
the command of General Bragg its
morals suffered" This illustrates how
change a change Of
single letter may cause. How would
it do this morning for the teachers in
our various schools to submit 10 their

SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY.

The reception of Mrs. Roosevelt, the
first lady Of the land, at Charleston
was the most brilliant event witnessed
there in forty years. She is the first
Presidents wife ever entertained in
this old and aristocratic southern city,
and the hospitality and brilliancy evil
denced on every hand speak we'll for
the friendly feeling of the North and
South. Charleston hes what is prob
ably the mott unique society in the
entire South. There no one is strict
ly in society unless he or she is receive
at the balls given four times year
by the st. Cecilia society, one Of the
Oldest organizations of It's kind in tho
United States. 1t does not require
very many black balls to tarn down q
name. The balls are attended only by
members, the women of their families
and out.of-town guests No Charles
ton man not q member can attend,
and no Charleston woman whose
father, brother or husband is not
member. Birth or occupation or bcsh
constitute the qualification for men,
bership. Wealth has absolutely
nothing to do with it, and many Of
the most highly educated and accom-
plished young women in Charleston,
who would be welcomed in society
anywhere else, are not invited because
the male members of their families
cannot join the society. The only
native Charlestonians who can aspire
to membership are the sons of the
st. Cecilia people. Young men who
have moved to the city may hope for
admission if their family is sufficiently
aristocratic and their occupation I'M
Objectionable.
No young man, however blue his
blood, is admitted if he is engaged in
the retail trade. Clerks in wholesale
stores are occasionally accepted If the
nature of the goods their houses
handle is not under the ban. Hard
ware, cotton and fertilizer are al
right, but groceries and dry goods are
barred. Since most of the wealth Of
Charleston has been made in the cot
ton and fertilizer business, by the arts
tocrats very largely, these lines could
not we'll be Disseminated against
The professions and banking are con
sidered proper for st. Cecilia men. Blu
the retail tra1es-never! In Charles
tor it would be shameful for
woman to buy dress from younI
man and meet the same man at tn
ball where the dress is worn. A maj
of sufficiently blue blood may, how
ever, work in overalls all day and g
to the st. Cecilia that night. Sue
cases are rare, but q young man of ex
ceilent family, not native Of Charles
ton, has held the position of pressmai
in a newspaper establishment, an

The camp promises to boom this
year, as this is not the only property
giving promise of rich development.
James L. Butler, the discoverer of
this camp, deserves the greatest
credit for the discovery. Never in
the history of mining has a new camp
in the same period of time produced
with as few men as much value in
bullion as has been produced by the
Tonopah mines.
1t is not alone the discovery of the
Tonopah mines which should 90 to
credit of Mr.. Butler. The discovery
and exploiting of these mines assures

Nevada can be prospected
There are few men upon whom the
mantle of fortune rests so gracefully
as upon James l.. Butler.
Though he received "a large sum Of
money for his interests, he is the
same kindly affable gentleman that
he was before good luck befell him.
His numerous kind acts, made pos
sible by the possession of his new for

pie of Tonopah, and there are none
who do not sound his praise.

Facts StiII True.

These facts and the others recited In the
blast" were true then and are true toRdy;
that some women have changed their minds
does not affect them. For many years the
treasurer OF the national union was Gus
todian Of all the temple funds. Mrs. Carse
has never received or handled them in any
way, nor has she ever received one dollar
for all her work through all these years,
and it has cost her much each year beside
her time, while Mrs. Fry receives a good
salary for her services, and while no one
criticises her for this it harly fits her for
sitting in judgment on one who has worked
without thought or hope Of personal gain all
these years and in face OF the misrepresen-
tations which have been so constantly made.
One other point must be touched upon.
The temple was completed Just as the hard
times Of the last decade set in, consequently
the building has not been able until the
present year to show it's earning qualities.
Now IL is entirely rented, although still at
a low figure, but rents are advancing. The
rent roll this year is $17O, 900 in round fig
ures. This should net, after all expenses
are paid, including $50, 900 interest on mort
gage on building, at least $4,000. This sum
will go to pay off the back interest due to
Marshall Field on the building, which was
incurred during the years of financial panic.
1t amounts to $50, 500, not to $500, as
stated by Mrs. Fry. The building earned
enough the first three or four years to pay
off the floating debt Of $65 900. Had 1t not
been numbered with this there would have
been a surplus instead Of a deficit in spite
Of the years CT panic. 1t is simply childish
for Mrs. Fry to say that the $500. 900 mort
gage can be foTeclosed at any time, We
could get it heightened forty years II we
wanted, for the building is on a safe hnan-
cial basis and the trustees hold 1915, 500 OF
the stock.
Let me close by quoting from "A Trumpet
Blast" the first sentence l took from II:
at is easy to tear down, it is difhcult to
build, but the builder blesses and is
blessed" Mrs. Carse was the builder, and
We need but to read this letter OF the corre-
spending secretary Of the national union to
see who 1t is that seeks to tear down.

She also speaks Of the money used in
decorating willard hall, but which was

mention that s10,O 600 was voted by the board

to complete the hall, 1t was also ordered
paid. but Mrs. Fry speaks as IL It was done
by Mrs. Carse, when, as president Of the
board. she did not even vote upon this ex-
penditure.
Speaking Of the debt, which. with ac-
customed fairness, she makes IS 900 larger
than it is, she asks. "Under these circum-
stances what would the national do with
the temple II it owned it?" She forgets
that the national cannot own the building
until it is paid for, and when It is the
interest on the debt, $50, 900 per year will
no longer have to be paid, and will swell
the assets.
