THE DAUGHTERS MEET


The Sims w atson Chapter, United
Daughters of the Confederacy, held
their monthly meeting with Mrs. e.
n. Baker at the home Of Mrs. 8. H.
Watson Tuesday afternoon. After
the reading of the minutes and dis
penslng with the usual routine OF
business quite an interesting pro-
gram was rendered. The teacher
being absent Mrs. Watson acted in
stead, and made the lesson very in
teresting by telling of events from
memory that history fails to give.
A paper by Miss Minnie Sims en-
titled, "Are Our Southern Heroes
Forgotten" was enjoyed very much.
The names of the third and fourth
vice presidents, Mrs. w. H. Fears
and Mrs. J. w. Singleton, were I'M
Intentionally omitted from last
writeup.
MISS SIMS PAPER.
The paper read by Miss Sims is as
follows:
ain these latter days when null
tiplicity of pursuits hedge us in on
every hand, and the rapid advanc-
ment along all lines keep our minds
busy keeping ahead of the onward
march of civilization, the past Is
well nigh crowded out of conscious
ness. More particularly is this true
of the younger gen Grafton and this
rush and the increasing desire to
know and possess the latest product
OF age whether it be a scientific dis
coyery, a novel, or new way of ar
ranging the hair, crowds me glory
of the past into the background.
"And the casual observer inquiries,
have they forgotten the past? Do
these sons and daughters of the
Confederacy never stop to think of
the glorious heritage left them by
their soldier fathers and brothers,
l should answer such a question
negatively. They just haven't time
to think as they grow older that life
has past as well as futuret hev will
remember. Their memory may be
asleep, but the right kind of stimu-
lus can wake it from its slumber.
Patriotism is at the foundation
of every true mans character, and
if Disreali's statement, Patriotism
depends as much on mutual suffer
ing as on mutual success, be true,
then Southern men have by inheri-
lance far greater amount of patri-
otism than the average American.
"Our Southern heroes. That Gov
ers a vast body of men, for every
man who was faithful to his trust
from 81 TO '65 was a hero. As an
army, as a body ofpatriots they will
never be forgotten. Their deeds will
go down the ages in song and story.
Whenever there are tales Of hard
ships endured and dangers over
come, there will be the Southern
soldier. Each man Of that army is
remembered by some one, some who
shows his musket and gray coat
with pride and tells OF his unwaver-
ing loyalty TO the South and the
principles in which he believed.
Those who cherish his memory are
few perphaps, but they are here,
and when we come 10 the men who
planned aud led. men like Lee and
Jackson, Gordon and Stuart, their
names are written in history in mar
BILE and granite, and best Of all in
the universal heart of the South"

Six Million Approvals.

Honest and fearless newspapers are
the search lights Of modern civilization.
They lay bare the hidden, insidious
and powerful influences that tend to
destroy that equality of opportunity to
mankind which bring content and JUS
dce to the homes Of all the people.
Running modern daily requires great
ability, immense energy, steadfast
courage. Running an independent pa.
per in the interest Of all the people de-
mands character Of the highest quail
ity.
The attributes of William Randolph
Hearst find expression and effective
and beneficial dissemination in his
great journals published in New York,
Boston, Chicago, San Francisco and
Los Angeles.
The fact that 100000 people read
the Hearst dailies indicates that he is
expressing sentiments approved by a
large portion of the American common

Uncontradicted facts, brought to

certain trust managers to admit that

Blind Cave-Fiehes.

An interesting addition has recently
been made to the Natural History
Museum, South Kensington, London,
BY the receipt of specimens of some of
the'blind cave-flshes of Cuba. The
special interest Of these fishes lies
In the fact that their alliance is with
saltwater forms which exist in the
neighboring sea, and not with fresh
water fishes, as is the case with Am.
blyopsis and its allies Of the great
cave Of Kentucky. There can be little
doubt that the Cuban caves in which
the blind fishes are found were form
erly in communication with the sea,
and that the ancestors Of these fishes
entered the caves from the adjacent
