GREAT THOUGHTS.
They Have the Gift of immortal

They Have the Gift of immortal
Youth and strength.
The influence Of the law of action
and reaction can he traced more clear
ly In those everyday human affairs
which come under our individual OBJ
seryatlon than in the greater move
ments Of mankind which are often tm-
perfectly recorded, We act and are
acted upon. The people we meet make
an impression on us; the impression
may be for the moment or II may last
through life. Bloom, fragrance, grace,
harmony, beauty, majesty, infect US
agreeably; deformlty, imbecility, dis
tress, cruelty, affect US unpleasantly.
The plea Of the unfortunate, the
thought Of our visitor, the opinion IL.
the newspaper, the issues Of the time,
impress us in accordance with our
moods or natures. Certain words, tones,
sights, awaken echoes within us OF Old
happiness or pain.
There are words and tones which
produce beautiful reactions-the lula
bes Of the mother, the endearments Of
the lover, the voice Of sympathy, the
enchantment Of music, the messages
Of the poets, the trumpet calls to hon
or and duty. And there are words
which produce misunderstanding, con-
fusion, aversion. anger-the words Of
whining, complaining, fault finding, Of
envy, Jealousy, slauder, Of malice in
tolerance, brutality.
The response TO the public speaker is
reciprocal to his power If he he duh,
the hearers are wearied; If he be con-
vncing. courageous, forceful, the au-
dience viii kindle, and he may rouse
them TO laughter or tears, to indlgna-
tiOn or fury, 10 generosity or sacrifice
lie may change the opinions and con.
victions of some and the course Of the
lives Of others; he may even save
city from slaughter or make Il state
If his thought be really great, it may
live through many ages, stirring gem
Grafton after generation, The reaction
Of moral effort may he prolonged; 1t
may even gain force with time mdi-
eating its connection with some stu
pendous primal energy. The echo Of
great physical conyulsion dies quickly,
but the echo Of the words Of Confu-
cius and Buddha, OF Plato, Seneca and
Christ, still lives The voice Of Socrates
before his judges kindles men whose
ancestors were untamed savageS when
Socrates spoke Buildings decay, mon
uments fall, rivers run dry, races de-

We suppose that was the amount
of Valdosta's deposits Dec. 3lst last

of about 1900. On Dec. 31st, last
past, the amount Of money on de.

Report of Florida Room. Confederate
Museum, Richmond.

IN looRing back over the past wear
there seems so little accomplished, so
little added. that there is material
for only a small report. But that
we have not stood still is something,
and when we feel despairing we must
remember, "thUse also serve who
only stand and wait. "
From our point of view it seems
incredible that the people from the
State at large do not make greater
effort 10 add to the collection Of the
room; but there is so much to do IN
that complex thing called living, so
many different pursuits which 20 to
make up the varied lives, and in this
day Of manifold avocations and much
competition, we everywhere under.
take more than we can successfully
accomplish. So it is but small won.
der that this cause should suffer,
Being so far removed very naturally
the people in spite of their patriotism
do not feel the interest that we here
doin building up an institution which
majority of them will never see.
The annual overlooking of Cases
has all been done and articles renum-
bered for new catalogue, summing
up a total Of $50 relics. According
TO yearly custom all woolen goods
have been sent to the furrier, exam
ined and treated for moths.
We have at last the large flag from

has been the work of the present
year, the contribution from the soci.

new leaf has been added to the ped

the dag mentioned below, which
seemed to deserve prominence from
its Interesting history and which has
been secured for the room by its ef-
licient regent.

him, showing that surely, if slowly,
tie people are becoming convinced
that tjis building is the safest place
for even the most cherished memen-

1t is to he much regretted that
tive people Of Madison county do
not make greater effort to fill tleir
case, the funds for which were pro-
cured with great trouble by Mrs.W.
II. Dial, jr., several years ago, the
relics in it have not been increased
more than two in number since her
first collection.
10 recapitulation will say we,
according to yearly custom, sent on
Memorial Day, awreath TO be placed
on the tomb of Winnie Davis, think
ing it to be the wish Of the Florida
people, as on one or two Of such oc-
casions they sent flowers direct from
their own State.

have done little, but it has been our
best. We will be glad Of any sug-

The market for outside securities displayed
generally Arm tone. although some irregularty de-
veIoped in SPOTS under liquidation The volume
OF business transacted was up to the recent aver
age although interest still centred In few OF the
important stocks. The feature Of the trading was
a further sensational rise IN InterborOugh Rapid
Transit of nearly per cent above the previous
closing or net advance of II per cent in the last
two days The buying and selling were by new
interests which heretofore have not been factors
in the trading in this stock The opening was at a
slight recession but subsequently the stock moved
up sharply to 1S5. the highest price yet attained
There was no news to account for the steady IN
crease in value other than the steady accumulation
by insiders Northern Securities huctuated within
a narrow range under fair degree Of activity.
American Can preferred advanced about y per
