Major LOwndes Thought the General

In an article in the Maryland Law
Review the late General Bradley L.
Johnston related many amusing anec-
dotrs of Robert Il. Lee. At Mine Run.
Oh the RuppahannOck, III 1858. General
Lee, with his military secretary. Colo
mel Charles Marshall of Baltimore and
General Wade Hampton, with Major
KawliuS LowndcS OF his staff, were
compelled to occupy during night the
one habitable room of an old farm
house. There We're two beds i'll the
room, which We're allotted to the gen
erals. while Marshall and LowndcS
slept on Il piece of carpet before the
open fire. LowndcS was careful to
give Marshall the position nearest the
door, so that he had to be getting up
all night to receive the reports which
were constantly coming in. LOWndcS
meanwhile slept the sleep of the just.
Next morning. said General John
ston, they had for breakfast block
ade bacon, muSty and rusty. and rank
and poor ponc. Some ncighbor had
sent to General Lee Il small tin bucket
with som" slices of breast of turkey
and biscuits.
General Lee, presiding with his
usual dignity, helped to breakfast.
General, what shall have the pleasure
of helping you turkey or baconE
Bacon said Hampton, and so on down
to LowndcS. Turkey said Lowndes. So
Lowndcs ate the turkey, and the rest
struggled along on the bacon. After
breakfast General Lee went back, ana
Hampton rode down the lines Major

was very impudent in your eating up all

old man is always putting on too much
style for me, and it does him good to
be taken down occasionally General
Lee, however, had good memory for
men and things.
In the winter of 1864 G5, before Pc
tcrSburg, he returned from an early
ride along the lines to get breakfast
with Hampton. The breakfast con
sisted of a large tray of rice, boiled
California fashion. where each grain
is distinct and dry; sorghum coffee

Memorial Day.

Gather tn" garlands rare today,
Snow whit" roses and roses red;
Gather the faircst flowers OF May.
Heap them up on the heaps of clay,
GLADDEN. the graves of the noble dead.
Pile them high as the soldiers were
Piled on the field where they fought and
fell
They will rejoice In the new place there
Today as they walk where the fragrant
air
Is sweet with the scent of asphodel
Many time I've heard it said
They fen so thick where the battles
were
Their hot blood rppled and. running red
Ran out like a rill from the driftcd dead,
Staining the heath and the daisies there.
This day the friends of the soldiers keep
And they will keep it through all the
years;
To the silent city where soldiers sleep
VIII come with flowers to watch and weep
And water the garlands with their tears

Facing them ut Il distance of a few

OFFICIAL w. c. t. U. REPORT.
Details of the County Meeting as Re-
lated by an Officer.

To the Editor of the State Journal.
The annual convention of the Shaw
nee County w. c. T. T., convened IN the
Kansas Avenue NJ. E. church August Is,
Although the day was extremely warm,
with the thermometer soaring close to
the 100 mark, the attendance showed the
enthusiasm and zeal of the organiZa-
ton. The reports from our local unions
of work done during the past year was
very good, indeed.
1 wish to speak of a very unique re-
port, being rythmically arranged, which
was sent to the convention from one OF
our local presidents. whom we regret
was unable to be with US. But to say
the least, it was much appreciated.
The reports along the lines OF prison
work and Purity and Flower Mission
work were especially good; also the re-
ports on literature, of which thousands
of papers have been distributed along
the lines of our various departments OF
work so that those who run may read
and get a larger, nobler view of life.
Another interesting report was the L.
T. L. work among the children, for we
believe that the child OF today is the
man of tomorrow.
The following are the names of the
county officers: President, Mrs. e
Blair; secretary. Mrs. c. Curry; treas
urer Mrs Collins. In the evening a
medal contest was held There were
six contestants. The last was an origi-
nal reading by Mr.. AZen Devers. All
acquitted themselves honorably. we
were favored with two selections by the
Walnut Grove quartette; also sone
by the L. T. LIS and vocal solo. and
Miss Edith Brummitt gave us some
thing unusual in the rendering of a mo-
ton song and we very much enjoyed a
recitation by Master Paul Younkin and
the decisive manner in which he rem
dered it, We also had short talk by
Rev. Mr. Reed, pastor of the church
followed by the presentation of a medal
which the judges awarded to Miss Car
RE Taylor. Closing with song and bene-
diction, we bade goodbye, feeling it had
been a day well spent, and with de-
Termination to go out to do more and
better work than we had in the past.

T stuck to it that it was a piece of wood
that had been driven by the wind to
the middle of the lake.
'Frankson insisted that it was fish,
and was SO sure of it that he fired a
shot at it from a shotgun. Imagine my
surprise when I saw monster pickerel

oUELL PRISON FILTRATION.
Guards Drive Away Women Who Wave
HandIxerchiefs at Conyicts.

Trenton, N J.. Aug. 1.-THE state
prison guards were called out to drive
away from the prison large crowd
which had collected at a dismantled
part of the wall to curiously inspect
the convicts in the cells that the
broken wall revealed.
The building of an addition to the
prison had necessitated this part of the
wall being removed. In the crowd
were many women, and some of these
started up handkerchief firtations
with the men in the cells.
The convicts grinned broadly and
were having a thoroughly enjoyable
time until the guards dispersed the
crowd.
