AGAINST AOvING THE FLAGS.
r.. z. Lee Camp Of Veterans Want
the Sacred EmblemS 20 Remain
at TallRhaSSee.

Following the lead taken by the camp
at Tallahassee, R. b. Lee Camp Nc. So,
United Confederate Veterans, last night
adopted resolutions strongly protesting
against the proposition advanced by
certain persons TO remove the battle
flags Of the Florida Confederate troops
from Tallahassee to st. Augustine.
The resolutions, which are published
in full, were introduced by former Gov
ernOr Francis P. Fleming, and that the
sentiment of the veterans, without ex-
ceptiOn, is strongly against such action,
was plainly demonstrated.
The proposition was scored in no un-
certain terms. It was pointed out that
the State Capitol is the only proper
place for these relics, emblems sacred
to every true Southerner and every true
son Of Florida. Seconds to the motion
that the resolutions be adopted came
promptly, and the motion carried with
out dissenting vote.
Other camps throughout the State are
taking similar action, and the protest Of
the old soldiers will be unanimous
against carrying the flags from Tslla-
haasee TO 81. Augustine, 90 long as the
Capital Of Florida remains at the former
city.
THE CAMP RESOLUTIONS.
The resolutions, 90 adopted last Light

Whereas, information has come to
this camp that 1t is proposed TO remove
the Confederate battle flags from the
Capitol at Tallahassee TO the State Ar
senal at ST. Augustine, under Chapter
5670, Acts of 1907; and
whereas, the said act does not spe-
cifcally mention the said battle tiags
among the articles and things to be de-
posted in the said armOTy, but uses the
general language AL relics and troph-
les relating to the military history OF
Florida and Florida soldiers and
Whereas, we believe that II the at
tention of the Legislature had been call
ed to the fact that such general langu-
age contemplated the removal Of the
said battle flags from the capital Of the
state, that they would have been ae-
cepted from the terms Of the act; and
REMAIN AT TALLAHASSEE.
Whereas, it is the sense of this
camp of United Confederate Veterans
that the said Confederate battle flags
should remain at Tallahassee, the capi-
tai, frequently visited by the people
from all parts OF the state and the
place Of assembly of the peoples rep
Tesentatives; therefore be it
Resolved, by R. p. Lee Camp No. 68,
United Confederate Veterans, that the
governor be, and he is hereby request
ed to defer the removal of the said bat
tie flags from Tallahassee until the
matter may be brought to the attention
of the next legislature for such action
as it shall deem proper. That the ad-
jutant be instructed TO send a copy of
these resolutions to the governor"
OTHER BUSINESS MATTERS.
The meeting was the regular April
meeting Of the camp, and was well at
tended. In addition to adopting the
above resolutions, business was trans
acted as follows:
The committee on pensions and purR-
ing the pension rolls asked for further
time, and this was granted them.
The committee having in charge the
Memorial day arrangements stated that
il was not yet ready to announce the
detailed progrom, but that the COM
plete program would be printed, as
soon as prepared, in the local papers,
and ample notice given the veterans as
TO what had been decided upon, orders,
etc.
The resolutions given in full above
were ordered furnished the papers with
a request that they be published, a
copy be sent TO the governor, and the
action Of the camp be spread on the
minutes.
Other business was disposed Of, and
then came adjournment. Times Union.

MOUNTAIN GARDENS Interesting Account of South ern California's Use of
 Nature. GREAT SAND STORM Account of Summer Time in Garden Land of American Pacific
 Coast.
EAT SAND STORM

The following letter from Minotte A. Osborn, Yale, 1907. of thls city, written from Azusa, California, tells an inter esting tale of the summer time in southern California.
 Azusa, Aug i, 1908. Even in cool southern California the mercury kicks up toward the 100 mark and we pun hard when the breezes fall to blow for an hour or two,
 I had most delightful experience yesterday when a certain Judge Silent, formerly of Arizona, entertained us at his Azusa estate for lunch" Ills place Is unique, for he has foreseen the great possibility of a mountainside and has converted 1t into magnificent gar den. How to describe place that Is wholly unlike anything have ever seen? It Is, In many ways, like a vast private public park, a storehouse of wonderful foliage; irresistible little hooks and corners, All provided with rustic seats and overhanging things; winding paths leading to ever new and changing delights, trials leading into the mountains upwards and into the canyons downwsrds. reservoirs abound Ing In fish and a thousand other won ders and orange groves. And the whole extent is planted, as if by the hande of gods, right on the side of noun tain, SD that you look down upon or ur at It all. We ate in a pavilion over matched with palm leaves, in the midst of a garden. Then we witnessed g great sand and rain storm which wound through the valleys afar off ant came darkling 10 us on the mountain accompanied by fierce wind and howl ings. It Is strange and unique ex- perence to see and feel rain in south ern California at this season of the year. Back in the mountains came 3 tremendous cloudburst, which ncreas- cd the water supply from 2,00o to 1o0,00 inches and means wind in torrents foi days and days. Azusa folks must live on the water in the reservoirs, if some. one knew enough to turn off the flow before the water was spoiled All in all 1t was an interesting day, M A. o.
