NEW CONFEDERATE ANTHEM.
Some Interesting Facts Relating to the
 Subject.

Mobile Daily Item.
 The Item lately noted the fact of a new Confederate anthem in course or final polishing at the hands or us com poser. Prof. Frederick A. Dunster. It is now an open secret that 1t will be a twin composition, it's theme being Mir. T. C. De Leon's brief verses on FitzhuRh Lee and Gordon. These are "Gordon" and the Lee quatrain, Mors Vincta," Both have been universally copied, North as well as South. The two verses twining the great Geor- gian's memory with the battle flag' were written at Oaklelgh within an hour after the death telegram was re- ceived, at night MT. De Leon says;
 General Irwin and I were smoking and talking of General Gordon's fight for life, when the telephone rang and announced that the hero had gone 10 sleep until the reveille. l went up to bed An hour later, I called Irwin ana showed him the verse as 1t stands 10 day: rang for messenger and sent It to Clark Howell. The Constitution gave it place of honor, on the morning that the body of Gordon was brought to lie in state at the capitol. Mors yincta was written under similar i'm pulse.
 "Yes, the letter to a New Orleans friend, printed about the time, told truly the story or the Httie poem. had received shortly before letter from General Fitz-probably among the latest he signed-telling me where to ask information as to some battle paintings I was taking notes of 1t while Miss Mccoy read to me. when the postman brought another. This was from Mrs. Matte Paul Myers, widow of gallant and gifted Willie Myers. adiutant general of Breckinridges division. She was Go ing to look for the last time on the dead face of our dear General Fitz Lee; and she dwelt so tenderly and touchingly upon his having mellowed with the years in gentleness and dig nity, that you would scarcely recog- nize the man we knew when life was jest and war a pastime.' Her letter haunted me. and drove work out of my brain wrote to a Chescent City friend, the letter you saw. That night the one preceding his funeral-I woke suddenly, almost hearing Mrs. Meyers words spoken loud. I tried to forget them in sleep, but got up and wrote almost from dictation. Next morning, at breakfast. I told the ladies that I had dreamed of writing a poeI<

on Lees death, but could only remem- Der that 1t was some idea of his being walked by Fame to ride again. could not recall another line, but when Miss Mccoy came--and I had told her the same thing-I opened my typewriter. She warned me not to move 1t; that there was scrap of paper on the roller. That scrap was the auatrain l had written. when half asleep.
 T certainly can not conceive why this simple little verse should have caught popular fancy as it has done. Possibly It's very simplicity was the cause. It has been copied into almost every Southern paper; friends In the North. and even strangers abroad. have written for copies. and some of the dead chiefs relatives wrote me they hoped the lines might be en- graved upon his monument"
 Still. I see nothing out of the unus- ual in them. What there may be. Is due more to my friends beautiful tribute to hin. than to any original thought of mine.
 Yes; many times I have had re- quests from composers-and some of them well known-to write music for the verses to Gordon, and later, even more to those on Lee. declined, for many and good reasons. A little while ago I was Mrs. Tannenbaum's guest. She sang one of my old songs, com posed by her husband. We spoke of the Lee and Gordon verses. and I copied them for Mir. Tannenbaum. I heard no more fro mthe veteran man. ager until last week. Then he tele- phoned me that MT. Dunster had writ ten the Anthem. Equally surprised and pleased that two such competent. yet widely differing critics, thought them worth that compliment I asked details. MT. Dunster told me that MT. Tannenbaum had shown him 'Mors Vincta." and that he saw in them opportunity for real anthem. A few nights he played and sang 1t. at my house. To say that I was delighted mildly expresses my praise of that ad- mfrable musician's results. The tone- poem he has produced is what James R. Randall once said The epic of the red Confederate drama

MY COMPANION IN DARKNESS.
By Owen Oliver.

Copyright 1906, by Joseph B. Bowles.)
 There was time when none would speak of the horror which came upon the world; but now that three years have passed men talk about it openly, and ask one another what it was and how 1t happened
 It was on the afternoon of the twenty-second of June. 1905 I was hurrying down Broadway. It was a hot bright day and l was shading my eyes to look across the street when suddenly the sun went out.
 I thought I was smitten with blind ness and flung up my arms ana gave a great cry. I heard the beginning or it. Then all sound stopped. The rumble of vehicles. the scurry of feet, the cries of the street vendors. the shouts of the newspaper boys-all the hum of life-ceased in an instant.
 thought at first that I had died; but could feel my limbs; feel my lips moving as cried for help; feel the vibration of the traffic that could not hear.
 q am sblind." I shouted. Blind And deaf! Hold me, some one-Some- onet'
 I heard no call, and no answer. I groped wildly in the darkness. and met other hands that were groping too. I seized some one by the shoulder. and others Se1ZeO me- Hclt conclusively They were crying out as I was knew by touching their open mouths and faces contorted with fright.
 It is possible that tainted. but was held up on my feet by the pressure of the crowd, for I seemed to lose myself for a time and to come back to myself In a swaying, clutching mass of un- seen. unheard people. I felt sick and toA nd n hush my way out. till the crowd was scattered by a plunging horse which brushed against me as 1t passed. took few hurried steps and found myself somewhere-alone! I was more afraid of the loneliness than I had been of the crowd.
 struck my hand against a walk I could feel that I had cut my wrist I felt myself sobbing with utter fear, and felt the tears running down my cheeks I knocked against cabs and horses in the streets. The horses were kicking with terror and one bit my arm. So I went back to the pavement I started from, or across the road-I did not know which! l went on and on.
 Presently when I had gone some way two hands cIutched my legs They were such small hands that I did not fear them greatly. I stopped down. and felt small child lying on the lap of a woman. The woman's hair was loose and hanging over her face I thought she was young. She shivered at my touch. but sat down beside her. She laid my hand on the child as If she appealed to me for help. I felt it's mouth moving, as if it cried for some- thing. I invented an alphabet and spelt out a message with taps upon her shoulder; one tap for A. two for B, and so on. but she put my hand to her head to feel that she shook it. I could tell by the way she held my hand that she did not mean to refuse my friend ship, but to show that she could not understand my signs.
 I plucked at her sleeve to rise and come with me, and she came. She was scarcely able to stand. so I took the child from her and carried it.
 She felt the texture of my clothing

To properly clean carpet It must De taken up and all the dust well beaten out of 1t before washing or it will not look any better. indeed it looks worse. as the, dust wetted would smear the carpet with dirty streaks instead of cleaning it. After it has been beaten, relaid and firmly nailed down take d pail of clean cold water and add three gills of OK gall to 1t. Have plenty of cloths for rubbing. a soft scrubbing or clothes brush and a second pail of clean cold water. Begin at one side of the room and rub each breadth from end to end Put the brush into the pail with the gall water, let 1t become quite wet. then brush a piece of the carpet. as in scrubbing floor. till lather is produced, take a wet cloth from the other pail. squeeze some of the water from 1t and rub well over the carpet. after which use the dry cloth.
 Wash mating with salt and water--a pint of salt to half a pailful of warm soft water. drying quickly with soft. clean cloth. A thin coat of varnish may be applied to the mating; this will make 1t more durable and greatly improve its appearance. White var nish only should be used. and 1t must be laid on very thinly. Vanished mat ting does not need to be washed. but only to be. wiped with damp cloth and rubbed dry quickly.

The Travellers Wardrobe.

One of the burning questions Tn the female world during the springtime is that of the wardrobe to be prepared for the summer outing. Especially when a woman has not been accus- toned to travelling is she fearful of being unprepared in buffet cars or of meeting acquaintances in a strange city who may criticise her clothes. The New Idea Woman's Magazine for June anticipates this problem in an article on 'The Travellers wardrobe, y" by Elise Morlen, who suggests the cos tunes suitable for short or longer journeys. For the actual wear and tear of travelling she recommends a ''tailor-made costume on severe lines, '" of mohair, serge, panama or covet cloth, or else a separate skirt of one of the modish invisible plaids in light woolens, worn with a tailored blouse and a long coat of plain material, such as tan covert. In regard to the ''trot- ter'' skirts, so well adapted to travel ing, the writer says, they ''are again worn quite short this season, several inches from the ground, or ankle length, being most frequently seen. However, older women and those in- clined to be stout adopt nothing short CT than one and half inches from the ground. Miss Morlen also advises "a complete costume suitable for street wear as well as formal occasions, " made of one of the more dressy mater ials. such as chiffon, broadclOth, or checked or embroidered yelling. This suit is, of course, to be worn with dainty blouses, and the princess skirt and bolero are suggested as a prevail ing mode. For longer trips where a sojourn at large hotel may be in- cluded, a dainty complete dress is al- so a good thing to have, and the ar ticle winds up with some notes on Xii monos and comfortable dressing jack cts

They came up on the Nacozari train yester- day and were turned over to the Wells Fargo company for shipment to New York. The bullion is last months output of the famous Lampazos silver mines, 30 miles south of Montezuma. Previous to the earthquake, the bull ion from this mine was shipped to San Francisco. The express charge on the bullion is CHS. The silver is said to be about 95O pure and is worth about 20,000S. internationally
