fewer with each succeeding year, and this
fact is constantly becoming more apparent.

THE DAY WE CELEBRATE.

Next Saturday, January 10, is the one
hundredth birthday anniversary OF the
incompatible Southern commander, Robert
Edward Lee.
The memory of this grand soldier has
for wears been recalled and celebrated oy
the surviving veterans of the Confederate
Army. At the mention of the great name
of the peerless Lee, how the memories
come trooping! There is nothing IN all
the records of time grander than the ms
tory of the South in the great sectional
war. 1t is immortal.
With unbounded faith in their leader,
and fully justified confidence IN their
own prowess and invincibility, the men
who followed Lee never hesitated to en-
gage any gigantic odds against which
their great captain chose to hurl them.
The mighty prowess of our great chief IS
recognized throughout the world. The
most authoritative military critics OF Europe
have placed Lee along side OF Hannibal,
Caesar. Marlborough and Napoleon. A
distinguished British officer, closing
mastery criticism of the battle OF Freder-
icksburg, in which he compares it to Hannl-
balls famous victory over the Romans at
the Trebbia, said: ssAs surely as the
legions of Carthage and the Macedonian
phalanx derieved their invincibility from
the genius and inspiration of Hannibal and
Alexander, so surely the Army of Northern
Virginia, resoIute and daring as were the
individual soldiers, owed its matchless en-
durance to the master mind and magnetic
influence of Lee; that great chief OF whom
it has been writtenthat in strategy mighty
in battle terrible; in adversely, as in pros
perity, hero indeed; with the simple de-
votion to duty and the rare purity OF the
ideal Christian knight, he joined all the
kingly qualities of leader OF men. !"
In token of respect for the cherished
memory of this brilliant actor in both war
and peace, Confederate Veterans and the
United Daughters of the Confederacy.
will gather together Saturday throughout
the Southland to do honor to the priceless
memory Of Robert Edward Lee. The
memories that are evoked by the reunions
of the survivors of the battalions which
gained immortal glory fighting for home
and family and independence, is all that
many of them have, but it is noble heri-
tage to their children and to generations tc
come of those who SO love liberty and right
and independence and principle that they
are willing to lay down their lives for them

'The Girls of Holland" DeKoven's
 Latest opera.

"The Girls of Holland" the comedy opera which the Messrs Shubert are to produce at the Hyperion theater, Nov. [, and g, is the latest and in many respects the most ambitious work of the famous American composer, Reginald De Koven. The opera is in three acts, the scenes being laid in Holland during the occupation of that country by the Spanish in the latter part of the seventeenth century, and the stage settings are most elaborate. In his work MT. De Koven has been assisted by Stanislaus Stange, the li- brettist of such popular successes as Dolly Warden" and Mme Schumann- Heink's Loves Lottery" and, in 'The Girls of Holland it is thought by many that they have done the best work of their entire careers In the presenta- tion of the opera nearly 100 persons will be employed, including Vera Mi- chelena, prima donna, Harry Macdon- ough, Edward M. Favor, Henry Vogel, Pacie Ripple, leading tenor of the Sa- voy theater, London, who was brought to this country especially for this pro- duction; George Callahan, Karl Stall, Mary Nash, Leona Stephens, Carrie E.
