S. Kellett Smith has written to the

for the increase in the number Of ap-
pendiciis cases In the last few years
may be found In the large quantity Of
frozen and chilled meats that are now
consumed AS such meat Is liable to
rapid deterioration, It might result IN q
more septic state Of the intestines than
prevailed before these methods Of pre-.
serving meats was discovered The
Lancet answers that the theory Is plau-
slble, but suggests that frst it should
be aseertained whether the number Of
appendicitis cases has really increased.

Tribute to Gillian H. Jeter.
By j. l.. STRAIN.

Eta JANE, May 1.
MIR. Ed:tor:-Your correspondent
"Hey Denver" has paid most ex-
ceilent tribute to our late comrade in
arms, Lieut.. Gillian II. Jeter,, every
word of which I fully endorse, and
with all my heart thank him. only
regret that my poor pen can add
nothing more, or say more fully
what kind of man he was. Iknew
him at time it took men to be men.
Makeshifts were not current then,
and 1t. Gillian II. Jeter was one
who could always be depended upon
in the greatest emergency.
1t is said that while Diogenese,
the Grecian philosopher, was passing
through the streets of Athens at
midday with lighted candle, some
one seeing him thought he was crazy,
and asked him what he meant, and
his reply was, 81 am looking to find
a man." Could he have come across
our dear departed comrade, Gillian
l1obson Jeter, he could have truth
fully said have found him.
The man does not live today in

more confidence than / had in Gil
liam Hobson Jeter. These who
knew him as an officer in the army
knew gentleman of the very highest
type--cool, true and generous. lie
never asked MS men to 20 where he
was not ready and willing to lead
them. At Deep Bottom, Virginia,
in 1864, while Gary's command were
fighting great odds the men were or
dered to lie down and protect them
selves as best they could from the
grape shot and minnie balls which
were sweeping the earth like hur-
ricane. Frank Millwood was sitting
behind stump and looking over it.
Lit. Jeter told 'him to get down and
protect himself until they came
within proper range. But Frank
either didn't hear or understand him
and 30 remained as he was. Lieut.,
Jeter went to him at the peril of his
own life and made him get down
Our men held the line and repulsed
the charge. After the fight wa.
over Frank examined the stump and
found four minnie balls imbedded in

Vapor that is absorbed by the glorious
rays of the sun.
While we live nature will smile
upon us, and if VIC choose we can re-
turn that smile and thus make our
sojourn here one of pleasure and
peace. And when We die the sum
light will only fall on our graves and
the great work of the creator will
roll on and take no note of our loss
Life is not only short but serious, and
the more serious becluse it is short.
low few men realize that they must
soon fill cold and silent grave.
They know that the time will surely
come. They see friends and loved
ones laid in the tomb, yet they can
not realize that they too must soon
present that same solemn picture.
But alas. it is too true. ONLY a
little longer shall this heart beat.
But to realize this sad fact should
not make US sad, but rather give us
courage to push on to the prize, and
IN the end gain that blissful eternity
prepared for the faithful.
Some men are sad and gloomy be-
cause they would not be happy, but
would, if it were in their power.
hang the heavens above with crepe,
throw a mantle of gloom over The
bosom of this beautiful earth, pluck
the bright stars from the sky, veil
the sun with clouds, pluck the silvery

hrmament, shut up our-gardens
and the fields and their flowers with
which they are so beautifully be.
decked and doom the world to an at..

This is not only wrong but was
not so intended. Let this brief life
be passed in usefulness and good
deeds. Such good influences will
bless others while We live and rci,;cc
