DIR. KINGSBURY WRITES OF
CAROLINA AT GETTYSBURG
He Says That This State Lost Nearly Many Men
as Seven Other Confederate States
Lost.

am delighted that seven patriotic,
honorable, well-equipped North Car
olinians have charge of the work of
replying to Judge Christians attack
upon the character and good name of
the brave men who went to the great
war from this then small State of less
than a million inhabitants lin 1860,
including some 100000 negroes. The
number of soldiers from this State
was greater than that of any other
Southern State, and by tens of thou
sands. North Carolina buried 1000
of her men of the four years, accord
ing TO the records of the war publish
ed by the United States Government,
ur over 10000 as given by the Confed.
crate Handbook, published under the
auspices of the Confederate United
Confederate Veterans. Virginia, in
neither publication is credited with
more than $4,000 loss, If I remember
correctly. Let me give the figures for
both States as set forth in 1900 in the
Confederate Hand Book, which states
that it is "a reliable reference and a
safe guide to all interested in Confec-
crate History" 1t was prepared by
Robert C. Wood, colonel of cavalry,
C. S., A. He is endorsed by Generals
John B. Gordon, stephen ID. Lee and
others. Here is the record for Fir-
gina ana NOrIn CdTOIlItd i
Vihginia-Killed, 5,32S; died of
wounds, 2.519; died of disease, 6,947;
total, 14.794.
North Carolina-Killed, 14,552; died
of wounds, 5,151 died of disease, 2O-1
COZ; total, 40,305.
This shows North Carolina lost
nearly two and three-quarters more
men than Virginia lost. The United
states War Records differ but little,
giving North Carolina, as l recall the
figures little more than Al 900 losses.
The total Confederate loss is given
in the Confederate Hand Book, at
1891. North Carolina lost approx
imately one-third of all this. The
Hand Book, page "a, gives the losses
OF all the Confederate States. Accord
ing to its figures. which it claims to
be reliable, North Carolina actually
lost nearly as many men in the four
years war as Arkansas, Florida, Lou
isiana, Texas, Tennessee and Virginia
the total for all being AZ, 179. against
North Cardinals 40,305. The United
States War Records show 900 and
upwards for North Carolina.

Living in Hope.

The habit of living in the future, should
make us glad and confident. We should
not keep the contemplation of another
state of existence to make US sorrowful,
nor allow the 'transency of this present
to shade our joys. Our nope should make
rs buoyant, and keep US firm. It is an
anchor OF the soul. All men live by hope,
even when it is fixed upon the changing
and uncertain things of this world. But
the hopes OF men who have not their
hearts fixed upon God try to grapp:e
themselves On the cloud wrack that rolls
along the tanks Of the mountains: while
our hopes pierce within that veil, and lay
old OF the Rock of Ages that towers
above the flying vapors: Let US then be
strong, for our future is not dim per-
adventure, nor vague dream. nor a, fan.
cy of our own, nor wish turning itself
into a vision, but it is made and certified
bv Him who is the God of all the past and
of all the present. It is built upon His
word, and the brightest hope of all its
brightness is the enjoyment of more OF
HIS presence, and the possession OF more
Of His likeness. That hope is certain.
Therefore. let us live in 1.-THE Rev. Al
exauder MacLaren.

TAFT TAKES THE OATH.
Installed Secretary Of War as Success
or to Elihu Root-Cerernony
Was Imposing.

At Washington, Monday. Governor
William H. Taft took the oath of office
as secretary of war and at once en-
tered on his new duties.
These ceremonies took place in the
large reception room attached to the
secretary's apartments in the war oe-
partment and the transfer Of the port
folio from Mr.. Elihu Root to ex-Gov-
ernor Taft, while simple, was more i'm
pressive than any similar event in
many years.
Before noon, the appointed hour,
Governor Taft came over to the depart
ment from his hotel with little party
Of personal friends and some OF his
immediate family. They were ushered
into Secretary Roots Office, where the
retiring secretary, in a few well chosen
words and with good deal of feeling,
surrendered his portfolio to Governor
Taft.
The party then proceeded to the re-

chief Of staff, in uniform, took charge
of the ceremonies The room was
cleared Of all except the participants IN
the induction and the party OF friends
and members OF the general staff. Gov
ernor Taft and Secretary Root took
their places at the long table where
stood John Randolph, notary public,
who administered the oath to the in
coming secretary.
Then there were congratulations for
Secretary Taft and good-byes for Sec
retary Root. Every army officer on
duty in Washington was aligned at the
door and the brilliantly uniformed
column passing before the retiring
and incoming secretaries formed a
splendid spectacle.

HOW BAXTER WAS sWAMPED.
System Under Which Cotton Futures
are RouaE1t and Sold.

System Under Which Cotton Futures
are Bought and Sold.
The general system under which
speculation in cotton futures is con-
Quoted is familiar to those who study
The market situation. To the laym%u,
who never "indulges," the following
explanation will be interesting:
The buying and selling of cotton and
produce futures is done on a basis OF
margins" the customary margin on a
cotton transaction being 81 per bale,
or one-ffth Of cent pound, the
standard bale being. fixed always at 500
pounds. ~. -. --.
The customer makes his contract
through the dealer, who may act as a
broker, or who may himself become
the party of the second part to the
contract. In the latter case the dealer
operates what is known as bucket
shop" The usual cotton trade is one
hundred bales, though g. smaller
amount may be bought on margins in
almost any of the bucket shops.
The customer places say 500 with
the broker or bucket shop proprietor,
to margin one hundred bales. This Is
a margin OF twenty points" the point
being one-one hundredth Of cent. The
purchase is made at the market price
at the time, and # the market ad-
vances the purchaser wins. An ad-
vance Of 20 points, or one-ffth OF a
cent per pound, means a gain to the
customer of s100, An advance Of 1
cent a pound means gain Of $500,
and so on. Vice versa decline Of 20
points or one-ffth of a cent pound,
means a loss Of 500, and the custom
er's margins are thus wiped out He
is then called upon to put up more
margins to protect his purchase, and
in the even of failure to do this. he
loses the original margins placed on
the contract.
The selling of cotton futures is prac-
tically the reverse process. The Gus
toner desiring to sell, puts up similar
margins, which he loses in the event
of cotton rising a sufficient number OF
points to wipe them out. But if cot
ton should decline in price he Tins
500 for every 20 points it goes down.
