At the outbreak of the secession de-
mands General Beauregard was one Of
the first men to resign his position in
the United States army in order to be
free to offer his services to the Confed-
eracy. Few of those who are not aware
of the conditions of the time can real
lie what the selfsacrlfice in his act
really meant: He was giving up not
merely his old associations in the army
in which he had been for over twenty
years, but he was also giving up a GER
tainty for an uncertainty. Knowing as
he did the resources Of the Federal gov
ernment Beauregard could have hardly
been hopeful of the ultimate success of
the Confederacy.
Immediately after his resignation he
was placed In command of the defenses
of the harbor Of Charleston. Beaure
gard it was who opened the Civil War
by his attack upon Fort Sumter, and
his conduct throughout the war indi
Gated the same impetuous bravery he
exhibited on that occasion.

WHERE PRESIDENTS REST.
What to Do with Bodies of Chief
Executives Is Question.

What to Do with Bodies of Chief
Executives Is q Question.
The proposal of the descendants Of
Andrew Johnson that the Federal gov
ernment should take his last resting
place as a national cemetery of the
fourth class suggests new obligation
to our Presidents What shall we do
with our ex-Presidents has long been
a familiar topic of after-dinner discus
sion wherever any surviving members
of the craft have gathered, says the
Boston Transcript. What to do with
the bodies of our Presidents has not
before become a national question. A
wholesome sentiment directs that their
graves should not be neglected. The
efforts which are expended abroad
upon memorials to distinguished rulers,
notably the Albert memorial in London,
the grave of Napoleon in Paris, the
Pantheon in Rome, to say nothing of
the pyramids, contrast noticeably with
the democratic simplicity which has
allowed so many Of our Presidents to
lie in the country graveyards where
the fathers Of the hamlet sleep"
Three stages are already apparent
in American practice regarding the last
resting places Of our Presidents. Seven
of them lie in what was originally pri-
vate grounds of their old-fashloned
estates, in accordance with the custom
Of their time. These are: Washington
at Mount Vernon, which Is visited by
thousands of tourists annually; Jefrer-
son at Monticello, Jackson on a part
Of the Hermitage near Nashville; Polk
in the garden of his home near the
same city; Taylor in the Taylor fam
lily cemetery, five miles from Louis
vile, KY, which is a part of the old
farm where he was born, and Andrew
Jackson, whose remains have rested on
Monument hill, near Greenville, Tenn,
where the monument Is pointed out
from the windows Of passing trains.

NEW Strikes At AURl.
AURA. Nevads. Aug. 8, 1905.

~ "#~HAH. H.F..N.L 49, aN
Aura, Nevada. Aug 9, 1906.
Editor lNpEPENDENr:
Since my last communicates, three
very rich gold strikes have been made
in our camp. The first Of these was
made n week ego by l. r. Blewett
ON Bull Run. The ore is free milling
gold and, while he has only one Wan Of
the ledge. he has two feet OF ore that
runs better than eco per ton. Mr..
Blewett has mined and prospected in
almost every mining camp in this country
and Canada, md has been in the South
part Of the State since the boom started
at Tonopah. He has prospected in all
the camps, but says he has never seen
as much mineral and variety Of ores as
in this camp.
The next strike was made on Van
Duzer Creek. 1t will be remembered
that Van. Duzer Creek was and is rich
in placer gold and that thousands of
dollars have been extracted from the
auriferous gravels Of the creek, but no
veins OF Lodges had ever been found
that PANIED free gold. The source OF
the placer gold has been a mystery, until
Mr.. s. 7. Bentley, from the Southern
part OF the State, discovered a ledge,
near the head OF the creek, running 800
per ton in gold.
Last week Mr.. Blewett and Mr..
BENTLEY met by chance at Aura. They
are thorough prospectors and concluded
to pay a visit to Blue jacket canyon.
They were so impressed with the ap-
pearance of the canyon that they moved
up to the Aurn King mill and pitched
their tents and began a systematic
search for gold. They were rewarded
by finding some rich gold ore that pans
aplendidly and there appears 10 be a
very large,ledge Of it. They will not
divulge the exact locality OF their find
until they have acquired what land they
want, but the find is but a short die.
