VETERANS MEET IN NOVEMBER
Date Changed in Order to Secure
Lower Rates.

At a meeting of the executive COM
mittee having in charge the arrange
ments for the reunion of the Confed-
crate veterans of Georgia, it was deem
ed advisable to change the dates of the
reunion from October 24-25 to Novem
Der 80. The main object ofthis change
was to secure one cent rate on all the
railroads. The committee were of the
opinion that the first part of November
would be pleasant. The reunion at
Augusta was held in November, and
the weather proved to be delightful.
Circulars will be sent to all the

ing them of the change. During this
reunion the corner stone of the monu-
ment to be erected to the women of

COSTLY ROBES FOR WOMEN.
The Middle Ages a Period of Un
bounded Extravacance

Say what you please about the en-
travagance in these days of womens
dress, it cannot compare with the
gowns of olden times, embroidered in
genuine jewels and fashioned of cost
Hest velvet. Of course, such gowns
were not passing fancies or fashions,
but once made, were worn throughout
the owners life on such occasions as
We're appropriate. The women of the
Middle Ages often had their own
arms and those of their husbands en-
broidered in gold and jewels on their
robes. Isabella de Valois had robe
and mantle to match of red velvet
worked with gold birds sitting on
branches formed of emeralds and
pearls. The trailing robes were
termed cottes-hardies or surcottes,
and were heavy silk in red or blue
tame, and these were sometimes
veined. Their arms were embroid-
cred on them in silver and gold
thread. The wearer's own arms were
done on the left or sinister side,
impaled by her husbands, the latter
being on the dexter or right side
Sometimes the arms of the wife only
appeared on her robe, and her hus-
bands were embroidered on her
mantle. The most costly material
then known was used for these man
ties, most of them being fashioned of
samite or baudeskin, silk woven with
an admixture of gold thread. Women
of other than taintless character were
forbidden to wear these nantes on
the street. In the thirteenth century
women of noble birth wore robes en-
broidered in birds, fish, flowers and
all sorts of emblems. all in the most
costly workmanship.

what he was doing.

of the rostrum and began with a few
platitudes about the weather and the
Shining young faces" Then he con-
ceived the idea that he should drive

the tale of woman whose life was
wrecked by the use of drugs.
Just think of it, children" he said
in his most dramatic manner. "That
poor woman became the slave of mar.

The necessary look of horror was
not forthcoming and he realized that
he had gone too deep for the brief wis
dom of his auditors and must explain
Il suppose you do not know what

10 to Inspect Region Of the Amazon

The departure of the yacht Virginia
With the E. C. Benedict party of indus
trlal magnates for the upper Amazon
recently has served to attach new in
terest to the development and vast
possibilities of that region. 1t is the
intention to sail up the Amazon as far
as lquitos. 1,200 miles from the mouth
indeed, considerably more than that
from where the river actually mingles
with the Atlantic-and there to make
side expeditions in native boats or
with the auxiliary launches of the
yacht, that will enable the party to
form more clear and definite esti-
mate OF the resources of the country,
from the standpoint of opportunities
for American investment, than has
been possible up to this time While
at Manaos the party will join in cele
brating the opening OF the Manaos
and Para wireless telegraph system,
to be present at which forms one of
the first objects of the trip.
The introduction of wireless teleg-
raphy in South America is the most
logical use, next to it's employment
at sea, to which the new system has
been put. Across hundreds of miles
of the jungle entanglements, mountain
ranges, and river courses of South
America there has existed hitherto

no means of communication other
than by footpath and "balsas,' a type
of native boat and canoes. Wireless
telesraphy, as soon as stations are
erected and put into successful opera
tion, will overcome this.
Not less needed will be the great
systems of transportation that are
now and have been from time to time
projected for South America by vari-
Gus combinations of American and
English capitalists. Industrial
schemes, too. involving the bringing
about of vast changes, have quite re-
Gently been launched, some of them
apparently, it is true-as in the case
of the exploitation of the Acre dis
trict, in which j. p. Morgan of New
York and Sir Martin Conway of Lon
don, among others, were interested
only to be abandoned. The Morgan
Conway syndicate had a concession
from Bolivia covering tract of coun-
try on the head waters of the Amazon
several hundred miles square, in
which it was proposed to establish
colonies and operate various planta-
tons, timbering and rubber-gathering
enterprises. About the time that the
work was to commence. however, Bra
zil gave notice that Bolivia had no
