COMMANDER LEE
OF CONFEDERATES
SUDDENLY STRICKEN.
Newly Elected Chief CoIIapses
After Parade at New
Orleans Reunion.

New Orleans, La, April.-Gen,
Stephen ID. Lee, commander-in.ch hieI
OF the united confederate veterans,
collapsed shortly after the parade
and was taken to his hotel In a seri
ous condition. Though the line OF
march was the shortest ever under
taken, extending altogether only
thirty blocks, many OF the veterans
dropped out before the finish.
Gen. Lee became i'll while the head
OF the parade was rounding Lee
monument, where several school
children we're standing on its sloping
sides, dressed in red, white and blue,
ana forming living confederate
battle flag. He exchanged horses
with Gen. Shipp, and continued at
the head OF the line and then, wilt h
Gov. Blanchard behind him, stood
on Camel street for an hour review.
Ing the parade. His condition is
serious.
The parade was started at 11.39
O'Clock by the firing of the national
salute by the United States cruiser
Columbia, and, for the first time,
200 marines and bluejsckets from a
United States warship participated
in the confederate parade. The com.
mander and several officers from the
cruiser rode In carriages.
Before being overcome Gen. Lee
gave out an interview, In which he
said:
"This reunion has transacted mnch
important business and done much
toward laying the lost cause before
the people In It's true light. 1t seems
IS me now that all sectional feeling
and bitterness has passed out OF the
hearts Of the people Of the no rth and
the south, and 1t is an eviden CO Of
the great common sense OF the
American people, showing that tn ey
knew 1t was inevitable that the two
sections must come together, and
that the sooner this was effected tn
better, not only for those who fought
Tor the lost cause, but for their chill,
dren.

Also, he is wise enough TO catch the

NOV IN HISTORY.


Ely's Railroad Day is now in history,
gene to tell future generations what
significance it carried with it. The near
driving Of the last spike, connecting this
camp with the world amounted to moth
ing its self; the completion Of the Nev-
ada Northern to this point amounted 10
nothing in it self-no more than it would
have to any other point, bat neverthe-
less it means so much to the future
development of Robinson district. not
only in a mining way but in every other
respect that THE News cant help but
call attention to it again and again. l.
means the making of Ely one of the larg
est cities, if not the leader of cities in
Nevada: it means that the mines in the
district can now and for the first time
be profitably worked, the ore shipped
to the reduction plants and big pay
roll; it means that White Pine county
will now go ahead by leaps and bounds
and chat the oldest inhabitant' would
not know the place whore he suffered
for years while waiting for the develop
ment that will follow, should he be
permitted to return from that undis-
covered country from whose borne no
traveller has yet returned.
1t means the development Of every
material industry in the country and in
deed in the whole Of eastern Nevada !;
it means that the boys and girls of to-
day will only know the story written in
history Of the hardships their fathers
and mothers underwent while waiting
and watching for men like NJ. l.. Requa
to come here and blaze anew The trail
to greatness,
1t means that White Pine county as Il
stock growing part Of the State of
Nevada can now compete with others
counties that have been favored with
quicker transportation; it mean that
White Pine $ wool is now at the very
doors Of the factory; it means that Salt
Lake is but = hours northeast of Ely
where before that city was over 80
hours distant and could only be reached
after many hours Of hard stage ride
1t means 50 much and it good effect is
SO far reaching that every man, mother
and offspring in the county can now lay
claim to their part Of this wonderful
world and enjoy the manifold blessing
that people more favorable situated
have enjoyed while they have been
struggling on, subjected to every dis
comfort Of life on the frontier.
Ely is 10 longer out Of the world but
will soon take place in the channel
of commerce, near the head where it
riGl? 55ffuiIg belongs. Oh, the completion
of the Nevada Northern means so much
that ilmarks September 29th., 1906 as
a day that carries with it lhe signifca-
ants Of a rich arvelously rich section
Of our beloved commonwealth.

several society women had a private

THE RIGHT TO DIE.

I have no fancy for that ancient cant
That makes Us masters of our destinies,
And not our lives, to hold or give them
up
AS will directs; I can not. will not
think
That men. the subtle worms, who plot
and plan
And scheme and calculate with such
shrewd wit,
Are such great blund'ring fools as not
to know
When they have lived enough
Men court not death
When there are sweets still left in life
to taste.
Nor will a brave man choose to live
when he,
Full deeply drunk of life, has reached
the dregs,
And knows that now but bitterness
remains.
He is the coward who. outfaced in this,
Fears the false COLLINS of another life
L honor him who being much harassed
Drinks of sweet courage until drunk of
Then Selling Death, reluctant, by the
hand,
Leaps with him. fearless, to eternal
peace!

had done nothing that possibly might

dealing
There absolutely is no foundation for
the statement that the National City

to renew his order whereby gold i'm
ports might be facilitated" said Mr.
Vanderlip. "No aid was asked of the
Treasury Department. and as a cOnse-
que nee none was refused.
