nattIe Of sapeny Church.

Hattie of eap0ny Church.
 A bit of unwritten history. as told to me by a Confederate veteran, who rode with Gen. J. E. B. Stuart, often times called the Prince Rupert of the Confederate Army, which deem worthy of recording and with his per- mission I send it to you. He tells the story as follows:
 When the armies of General Grant and General Lee confronted each other at Petersburg. Va, in the summer of 1884, a dashing young General of the Federal army undertook to rival Gem eral Stuart in his raid around MeClei- lan's army, which immortalized him and the gallant troopers and officers who rode with him. In this grand achievement but one man was killed Capt. William Latane, whose burial at the hands of several Southern wo- men Is famed in art, poetry and tradi- ton.
 General Wilson, with a body consist ing of about 1000 well-mounted and thoroughly armed and equipped cav airy besides batteries of artillery, nov ing by the sfeft flank, he crept at night cautiously along and parallel with the Petersburg and Weldon Railroad, in d southerly direction, to about the vi. cinity of Hicksburg. turning thence west crossed the P! and W. Road and atruok out west aESa rapid march for oAIAHNtAkE eNiQ0nIly Wlth a view of cutting and destroying the main arteries. that supplied Richmond and General Lees army.
 This little army, led by the gallant and chivalnous young officer, who af- terwards became famous. traveFsed a section of Virginia which. has never before felt nor seen the horrors of war. When nearing ,Burkskille, the very goal or his enterprise and aulbi- tion, his command was vigorously, at tackled by the division of. general Fits Lee and w Fl. F. Lee, and forced back from RuFksyille. and in his efforts to get behind Grants army, attempted to recross the Weldon Railroad at Ream's Station, and there he was met by General Wilcox and Mahone's in- fantry divisions, and he then turned in the direction of Hicksford
 Purpose Anticipated.
 Anticipating hise puFposen General Hampton sent our regiment the 9th Virginia, at a forced march to inter- oept the column at Sapony Church, small white church at cross roads; our force was not exceeding 500 men, and Wilson's army consisted of what was left of 4.000, besides he had battery of four pieces.
 It so happened that on line with the cross-road there was a fence of oak rails. comparatively new; we made breast works of these rails, as rapidly as we could.
 The situation was this: we had a river behind us with a narrow bridge. and it was not fordabIe; Wilson had much the larger force, and was being pursued. he had to cut his way through

 Rheumatism is due to an excess of uric acid, an irritai- ing, inhammalory accumulation, which gets into the circula- hon because of weak kiQncyS, c0niSupd- tion, indigestion, and other physical irregularities which are usually regarded as Of no importance. Nothing applied ex- tcrnally can ever reach this trouble, while potash and like mineral medi- eines really add to the acdity of the blood, and this vital fluid, therefore, con- tinuany grows more acfid, sour an d weaker.

E After singing the song 'shall We Gather at the T.tver," q portion of Scripture was read by Rev. J. E. Mc- Cam. followed by most fervent pray ct by Rev l.. L. Gwaltney, Then Mrs. Julia A. Pratt presented the nonu- ment. Next. .iiss Delma. Foster and Miss Etta Rice stepped forward and pulled the cords that unveiled the mon unsnt amid the cheering of the crowd. As the veil was removed. these two young ladies placed on the monument beautiful wreaths of white roses (the Chapter hower) saying as they did so!

 The little school children then in ons glad chorus sang the soul stirring "Dixie" while all the vetersns clasped hands around the monument <

 It was considered opportune to have read on this occasion, In Memoriam." of one of Autauga's Confederates who died during the sixties. Col. B. M. Washburn was then called on to sing "AuId Lang Syne," in which the veter- ans joined. This. with the benediction by Rev, Mir. Haynie. closed the sxer. cises.
 This monument ls the result of eon- centrated and fevpted work of the United Daughters of tie Confederacy. It is an impressive monument and rises loftily in tho air on tae top of which is a typical Cont 1erate soldier; at the sides are suitable inscriptions; while the granite foundations strikingly tell of the strength of loyalty of the South ern colder to the flag he loved.
 Incased in the vault of the monument were placed various relies.

NEAR EAST TALKS PEACE.
War Clouds over Bulgaria, Servia and
Turkey Are Thinning.

London, Oct. 19.-The cloud which
lowered over the near eastern situation
Saturday has been dispersed, leaving a.
more hopeful prospect for the preserva-
ton of peace. Official denials of the
mobilization rumors from both Turkey
and Bulgaria are held to indicate the
success of the diplomatic efforts of the
western powers in Constantinople and
Sofia toward settlement of a difficult
problem and, although it becomes more
clear daily that the agreement entered
into by Sir Edward Grey, British for
eign secretary, and M. Iswolsky, Rus
sian foreign minister, concerning the
proposed conference of the powers, is
not acceptable to Austria or Turkey
and that prolonged and delicate negotla-
tons must precede the assembling OF
the conference, the belief in the best
informed quarters still is that peace
will be unbroken.
