MONUMENT UNVEILED.
NORTH CAROLINA TO HER
HERO DEAD.
A Beautiful Day Crowns the
Ceremonies at AppOmattOx
and Adds to the Good
Feeling of the
Virginians.

Appomattox, Va, April 1O-The
unveiling of the North Carolina
monument to the Confederate dead
from our state was accomplished to-
day in the presence of large throng
of people without an unpleasant in
cident, worth thought, to mar the
sacred occasion.
Governor Montague, of Virginia,
welcomed the North Carolina visi-
tors in a beautiful and hearty speech
which was pregnant with good feel
ing and brotherly love.
He emphasized the fact that IL e
les of friendship and goodwill
which still bound Virginians and
North Carolinians together had eX-
i5te1 f: on the time THESE states were
formed; that they Were never any
stronger than they are todty-a hall
lowed day, when all We're able TO
lift them selves above any difference
of opinion.
The response Of Governor Glenn
Was ringlngly eloquent and happy
one and enllrely worthy of North
| Cardinals e.oquent chIc1 magistrate
A story Was in circulation at Al
ponattox today somewhat as follows;
A certain young lady of Lynch
burg, a member OF one of the chap
ters of the Daughters Of the Confed-
eracy there, announced some days
ago her intention of attending the
unvelliug ceremonies. One of the
other members of the Lynchburg
chapter told her she must not go.
"Well, 1 am going, anyhow" she
said.
"Rut you may be turned out Of the
chapter if you CO." said the timid
lady.
.'Let them turn me out,' and
what did Andrew johnson say?
"But you won't find many Vir-
ginia folks there" added the lady.
There'll be as many as there were
Iorty years ago." was the final shot
of that Lynchburg young lady. That
young lady had visited in Raleigh.
| The incident tells better than any
explanation could the feeling of the
Virginians which the North Caro-
lima party met up with here. They
felt just as that fair young daughter
of Virginia. She liked the Tar Heels
and was going out 10 the celebration
anyhow.

EMR. TAFT AS POO e All.

Mr.. Taft, who weighs over 800
pounds, is not only Secretary of War
and grand duke Of the canal zone,
but he is also president ad interim
and acting Secretary of State. When
ever the President is asked about
great state subject, be it national or
international, he simply says that
'-Secretary Taft is keeping in touch
with the situation"
But Mr.. Taft is big enough to fill
a great many chairs, and the repub-
lie WiIl take no harm under its new
chief. The mice should not attempt
to play while our big Philippine cat
is at hand. The other cat is away,
but the Philippine cat is present,
ready TO meet all mice that become
aggressive. He is at hand whether
the Panama canal becomes obstru-
sive, or Santo Domingo, or Morocco
or what not. No matter what sub
ieCt comes up in the next two months
he is ready to meet it, and if he sits
down on it it will certainly be
squelched. Ever since the days of
Grover Cleveland averdupois has
been cons dere a feature and an
equipment for craftsmanship, and nc
one, not even Mr., Cleveland, has
ever excelled our new boss in that
respect.
Fortunately for our President pro
tenn his offices are close together
He can step across from the low, bu
long, exte, sion of the White HOUSE
to the war office, where he can ordcl
a bat,le5hip or two, and then he cal
go down the hall to the state depart
ment " here he can call up Mr.. Crom
well, thus getting in touch with th
SanIo Domingo situation. How man,
times a day he takes this walk is no
necessary to inquire, for Poo Bal
is a law to himself.

Gruy, On winch were TWO plates or SOUP
and all the concomitants belonging
thereto and the proper wine. The
waiter entered the tiny place and de-
posted the things with a grave busi-
nesslike air, putting card at each
place, and then discreetly retired.
Clinton scarcely noticed the arrival Of
the man, but honeybun saw him. The
soup looked good, and the little card
caught her eye. She was the one woman
in this generation with keen sense
Of humor. She began to eat.
Clinton now turned squarely and
looked at the table. He jumped to
the conclusion that she had relented
and had been roit'enough to give the
order unperceived, but, though he
would condescend to eat, and the soup
smelled very good, he would not let
her enjoy her triumph too soon. so he
took his soup In dignified silence. The
next course was ready as soon as he
was. On one large platter filed with
chopped ice were placed sixteen small
CLAIMS arranged to spell the words:
LOVE ONE ANOTHER"
One small clam otficiatcd as a period.
This arrangement was too obvious, es-
peciaily as the waiter set the dish SO
the wor,i- should read. The little CLAIMS
went where all good CLAIMS should go,
and two hearts began to soften insen-
sibly. Two squads, Nesting side by
side on toast. were accompanied by
two cards bearing the legend:
PEACE. ON EARTH"
The salad was delicious. the entrees
a dream, and with each course came
two cards with some sentiment calcu-
lated to remind the recipients Of the
day. Honeyboy pushed his cards in
gloriously away, but honeybun gath
cred hers in neat heap. The lasr
course was ice cream-very pink-and
nodded into the shape Of large heart
with a white ribbon tied In true low
er's knot around 1t. but the heart was
broken through the middle and press
ed apart deftly A single card read:
"CHRISTMAS NIGHT.
PEACE AND GOOD WILL.
GET TOGETHER"
Even Clinton now saw, but he
thought this was all the clever work Of
honeybun. He looked at her. She was
all rosy and sweet. no longer pale and
hungry. Maybe, too. the good dinner
had something to do with it. but he
beamed love on honeybun. and reach
ing over took her little left hand and
kissed the wedding ring. Neither ever
knew that the fat head waiter nearly
danced In his retreat as he saw the
broken heart drawn together and eaten
from the same dish by both. He sighed
as he whispered, II have reunited
them. but this house has lost two GUS
toners"

eyes and rosy cheeks and the snowy
teeth showing between the smiling
lips. And the same arc light looked on
the handsome. clear cut features Of the
tall man with his fond and protecting
air. "A fine couple" it spluttered. "A
fine couple. All, I've seen many such,
but they all end the same way"
With this pessimistic remark the light
blinked wickedly. The door closed. on
the young couple as they walked slow
ly along the thick carpet waiting for
that lordly parsonage, the head waiter,
to assign them to place. This astute
parsonage instantly sized them up as
q recently welded couple and beckon-
ed them to an Ideal spot, cozy little
table In corner, half surrounded by
palms. There they were shut In from
prying eyes and shut out Of the hurry
and noise Of the rest Of the world. As
q work Of supererogation the head
waiter brought bowl OF white roses
and with an unctuous smile, directed
at no one in particular, set them In the
center Of the table. and this called up
q pretty blush on the fair ones cheeks.
Clinton took the elaborate menu and
with hopeless glance at It's foreign
names handed 1t to his bride, saying In
the blind hope that she understood Il.
You order the dinner. honeybun."
Miriam glanced In the mirror and
gave cry Of dismay.
"Oh. ! am perfectly disreputablei
Just look at my hairw
She remembered the time when she
tried to translate the menu to some
friends In restaurant. giving poisson
aux eaux wives as poison to the lively
waters" She was not going to allow
Clinton to gloat over her-above all, at
this early stage Of their married life.
30 she returned the menu to him with
great apparent self abnegation.
"No; you order, honeyboy."
