LEE AS A COLLEGE
PRESIDENT,

The Confederate Veteran for Au-
gust publishes a scholarly paper by
DR.. T. A. Ashby, of Baltimore, Md,
entitled "Gen. r. f. Lee as q Col
lege President" The complex char
acter of this great man has as many
sides as the proverbial prism, and a
new light on any one of them seems
to make all the others glow more
brightly. DIR. Ashby covers the sub
iect fully, and he begins bis paper
by saying: almost every side Of
Gen. Lees life work and character
has been written upon by the histo-
rian. But little can be said about
him as a soldier and citizen except
in the nature of personal renints-
cence. | much doubt whether Gen.
Lees ability and renown as IL sol
der are more deserving of praise and
admiration than his simple, natural,
and inspiring lie as a college presi-
dent In the larger aud more re-
noWned field of action as soldier
he exhibited all the ability and man
illness of the hero and warrior. In
the discharge of the quiet duties of a
college president he manifested that
sweetness, charm, and simplicity of
character which only great and
noble soul can possess. AS the lead
er of a great army, the pride and
support of great cause, he was no
greater man than when he under
took to guide the educational train
ing of a small band of young men
who gathered around him for in
struction in the arts of peace

Gov. Broward returned from his
western junket in time to again in
terfere with the execution of Isaiah
Cooper, the De Soto county murder
er, who was to have been hanged at
Arcadia last Friday. The reprieve
arrived a few moments before the
hour appointed for the hanging, and
after Isaiah had gone through all
the misery of bidding a final fare
well to his family; in fact after he
had tasted all there is to death-the
fear of it. The state has been play
ing fast and loose with Isaiah for
several years, and this makes the
third trip he has taken into the very
AVIS of death only to be yanked out
just as the jaws were coming togeth-
er. We have felt deeply for Isaiah,
not so much that he was to be hang
ed-for he probably deserves that
but because the pardon board won't
allow him to pay the court imposed
penalty for his crime and be done
with it. But it may be that it is the
policy of the state to administer
mental torture for a few years to
convicted criminals. If that be the
case Cooper is certainly getting a
regulation alopathic dose.

HER BABY FOR BEER.

A London mother offered to sell
her baby for quart of beer This
fact came out at a subsequent in
quest into the little ones death.
The mother love is the divinest
passion known to humanity. 1t will
survive disaster, sacrifice, shame,
and grow stronger and sweeter with
the pain and anxiety and devotion
that nourish it. 1t will withstand
disobedience, unworthiness, ingrati-
tude, desertion, and follow with faith
full hands to the lowest depths of dis
grace and despair. 1t will forgive
all things.
1t is the first inspiration of life
and the last guide through the shad-
owy gates of death. 1t is the we'll
spring of human passion that flows
freest and purest. 1t is the last to
be dried up or defiIed, because its
source lies deep in the soul of wo-
manhood.
But booze, the DEVILS insidious
poison, can pollute and destroy this
almost divine passion, rs it can
every other emotion and sentiment
of the human heart.
When the deadly moral poison of
drink can thus burn and scar its way
to the very depths of mothers ma
ture, destroying at last her strongest
and sacredest instincts, can any man
or any woman, however confident in
self-strength, hope to trifie with it
and escape unScathed?
And are we doing our duty as citi-
zens when we vote to legalize a
traffic that is responsible for the de-
struction of so much that is inner
emily noble in the human breast?
Not every one who drinks-nOt
every one who drinks hard-would
sell child for quart of beer. But
who can measure the weakening OF
moral, mental and physical qualities
of ambitions and aspirations and o.
effort?
Surely the agency so baleful as tx
destroy mothers love will work in
Jury in every life of which it gain!

Some Very Greedy Birds That ara

Some Very Greedy Birds That AT"
Tretnenious Feeders.
Despite the fact that "the anpetlte
of llrl" has become a common phrase
for light eating, investigations snow
that birds are tremendous feeders. Inc
diet of the average kestrel ia small Eu-
ropean hawk Is calculated at l,oOo
mice month, to say noting OF lnsects
and worms. The barn owl is as vora-
clous as the kestrel. An investigator,
after caging one of these birds, gave II
seven mice one after the other Inc
first six Immediately disappeared, each
with a gobLlc and Il gulp, and the OWL
dil its very best to treat the seYehth
in Il like manner. Limitations or ab-
dominal capacity, however, prevented
and though the gobble came on the
gulD did not, so that for twenty min
utes or so the tail of the seventh mouse
dangled from the corner of the Drd
beak. But In due course it swallowed
the body, and three hours later the
pangs of hunger reasserted themselves
and the owl ate four more mice.
Four pounds would be heavy weight
for Il heron. Yet one Of those BIRDS
which was trapped in England, dis
gorged two recently swallowed trout
one of which weighed two pounds and
the other one and half pounds. An
other captured had contrived to put
away three trout averaging three-quar-
tiers OF pound apiece, although 1t was
only four months old, and another had
dined upon seven small trout, together
with ii mouse and % thrush.
Among the greedicst birds are WOOD
pigeons, which will continue to gulp
down food until their crops are almost
at the bursting point. From one OF
these birds, shot as it was returning
from a raid in the fields, no fewer than
800 grains of wheat were taken. An
other had contrlved to cram down no
fewer than 600 peas. A third was en-
deavoring to sustain nature with $50
beech nuts and a fourth with sixty
