The Montgomery Advertiser is the only paper in the United States and Caiada that does not know how to spell Jack Reaves's name," complains The Chattanooga News. We'll, as an old Cleburne County friend used to say, If s-o-x don't spell socks, then what do it spell?' If we misspelled the fa- nous Tennessee editors name. we kept the sound, anyway, and we guess Jack Reeves won't kick because of our or
 thographic lapse. Wonder, by the way, if The News never discredits Webster?

If there could be no constructive re- cess there could be no constructive mileage and those who voted for it were guilty of constructive stealage. By the way, The Advertiser offers con gratulations to the Senate for blocking such an outrageous grabfest, and we also congratulate the Alabama Con- gressmen that none of them voted for 1t.

 With the hour of noon Saturday two famous soldier-statesmen, Major Gen. eral Joseph R, Hawley of the Union army and Brigadier General Francis NJ. Cockrell of the Confederate army ceased to be members of the greatest legislative body on earth.
 The passing from the Senate of these men, who fought with equal bravery and brilliance on opposing sides in the great civil war calls to mind many other members of the upper body who fought in that conflict.
 General Hawley was 35 when the war began, and enlisted as a Captain four days after the fall of Sumter and

Flag of 6Ath GeorRia.

Mir. George W. Ely, who was a gal iant Confederate soldier, yesterday held in his hand this item which he had cut from q copy of Mondays Birmingham Age -Herald:,
 Tn the account which was published last Sunday of the Confederate battle flags which were captured during the war and surrendered at Appomatox, it was stated that there was no record of the flag of the 54th Georgia regi- ment, hence 1t could not be returned.
 Chief Justice T. J, Simmons of the Supreme Court of Georgia was colonel commanding the 54th Georgia regiment when the surrender at Appomatox took place.
 1T was there at the surrender said Chief Justice Simmons, and I. myself. saw our flag surrendered by Private flag should be with the others which were taken on that occasion. I cannot understand the report that no record has been found of it."
 MT. Ely, coment.ng on this statement,
 T belonged to the 54th Georgia. of which Charlton H. Way of Savannah was colonel. He lived in Montgomery several years after the war closed and was engaged in the cotton business here.
 'The regiment never was in the Vir- ginia Army. It belonged to Smiths brigade, Cleburne's division, and sur rendered in North Carolina.
 Captain c. P. Thomas of Columbus. Ga, cut the flag off the stan and placed 1t under his shirt and brought 1t home with him. He can tell where 1t is."

A Simple Remedy for Acquiring
Hard Muscles and a

A No. IL bore gun when load
ed with 3 drains of powder will

shoot harder than if double this
amount Of powder is used.
If too much power is used, all
of it will not explode until it
leaves the muzzle of the gun.
That portion which does not
explode at the proper time, inter-
feres with the direction, and
checks the velocity or force of
the shot.
Hard muscles and a strong body
do not depend on the quantity of
food, but on it's perfect digestion
and proper assimilation.
If the nutrient properties of all

Body Of Man
Found Floating

The body of Mr.. Dodge, an eld-
erly man who mysteriously disap-
peapred from Matamoras, O., ear
ly in January, was found floating
in the Ohio river Tuesday after
noon near Raven Rock, w. Va.
Deceased was about IS years old
and previous to his disappearance
made his home with the family OF
his son Walter of Matamoras. Mr.
Dodge disappeared very sud
denly at night, and no clue to his
whereabouts was ever heard un-
til his body was found as above
stated. He was a highly esteemed
citizen, and just why he took his
own life as the circumstances IN
dictate that he did, is still shroud-
ed in mystery. His remains were
laid to rest yesterday afternoon
in a cemetery near Matamoras.

Federal and Police Enumeration.

In Mr.. w. E. Curtis letter printed yes
terday In The Star were given the figures
of estimates of present population by Dr.
rector North of the census bureau. In the
table the District of Columbia is set down
as holding at present 800. ss3 people, which
is some 10000 short of tho count recently
made by the police of this city. Although
no explanation is given of his method. 1t Is
probable that the director has merely
struck an average Of increase and applied
1t to the census returns of 1900 on yearly
growth basis. Thus his computation lacks
the force of an actual enumeration.
The police census may not have been per-
feet. The facilities for the count and the
brief time allowed for the work certainly
did not make for entire accuracy. But II
is question whether the police have over
counted the people by 10000. II SO. their
enumeration is practically worthless. II
they did approximate to an accurate count,
Mr.. Norths estimate is worthless.
Five years hence the decennial enumera-
ton of the entire country will occur under
auspices which promise perhaps the most
accurate counting of the people which has
ever been conducted. for the organization
of the census bureau is now permanent. and
the constant object Of those In charge u

John Paul Jones.

The announced program for bringing
home the body Of John Paul Jones will
meet with general approval. No pains or
expense should be spared to invest the at
fair with dignity and Importance. We are
assured that the French government and
people will assist with all sympathy in the
ceremony on that side of the water Our
part therefore should be well attended to
and the final sepulture here made the oc-
casion for a memorable demonstration.
What the spirit of that glorious sailor will
say If 1t accompanies the body across and
communes with itself as to the difference
on the blue water between these times and
those in which he operated would be worth
q pretty penny to any enterprising news
paper. The lines and equipment of the
Brooklyn as compared with those of the
Bon Homme Richard should provoke many
interesting observations. OF this we may be
sure: If Admiral Jones were living today
he would be stanch friend of the Ameri-
can navy, and a firm advocate of bringing
1t and keeping it up to the requirements of
the great power into which the government
he helped to establish has developed.
