 The Aftermath.
 The busy, prosperous look of the stations along the line of the L. ana N: Railroad have nothing to remind one of the herce conflict which has ragged all over our fair Southland.
 StaIwart young America Is ever to the front, but his watchword is now success in the financial world. noa in the terrible business of killing men {.
 This IS as 1t should be. but the foot prints of war were made too deep to be entirely covered. The green growth oi Lorty'three springtimes, the snows of forty-three winters. have not suf- nced to ,erase all traces. There Is a death more horrible than that caused py bodily wounds, a grave deeper than the many where our heroes sleep---in the trenches at Shiloh or on the green hillslopes of their native land. Iris the living death of a body that has ooutiived the mind. and the cold grave dug by the relentless hands of time and Loneliness.
 As the L. and N. stearas into a cer. tain station not far from Nashville, Tenn, the attention or the traveller is attracted by what appears to me very happy family group. A tall. sol. dterly old man and two rosy checked children. come laughing together down the slight incline which leads to the station. His snowy beard reacheA nearly to his waist, and his long white hair floats out from under the old slouch hat like a halo of light round the kind old face. The little bronze cross that he wears on his coat gleams brightly in the sunlight. telling the glory of a story dear to us all. But there is a saddey side. His eyes sturn to the incoming train, bright with ex- pectant happiness. Releasing his hands from the clinging children, he holds them, forward with a welcorn- ing jesture. his every movement full of longing. hope and love. As the last passenger alights and the "all aboard" is heard, his arms drop ltstlessiy to his sides, the light as gone from his eyes, and aa the train moves away. he buries his face in his hands, and his old form shakes with the agony of hope deferred When he returned from the war, weary and worn, but full of Joy at the thought of seeing bis loved ones again, he found his home des stroyed, his young wife and child gone. 1t was but temporary absence, however. She had. on the burning of the home, fed to her mothers in nearby town. only awaiting his coming to return. News travelled slowly in those days, and when the young wife came, she was borne in 6 black -draped cofin, followed by her heFeayed moth CT and weeping children. The sol- dIer's courage forsook him then. The light of reason fled from his eyes, the joy from his life. Forty-three years he has waited, hoping. longing. Once each day he meets the train, bright with expectancy. only to turn away In renewed despair.
 Such is the aftermath.

 constantinople. october Sl:-- The elections for members of the Chambers of Deputies are still proceed ing and it Is doubtful whether they will fJA completed by November lt, the date .or which Parliament meets.
 The following are the results of telectioas Apf to- the present reported. In Albania Ismall 'Kefnal. who recent iy received triumphant welcome on his return from exile, was elected with Azis Pasha Vrlonis for Berat. and Mu- At Bey. son of the late Noga Pasha. for Arkyrokastro. Two Greeks have been. elected at Yanina, and one Greek at PFevesa. In Asia Minor Turks have been elected for Brusa, Bergama. and Boil.
 The elections of the first degree in and many provincial towns have resulted, as general rule. in the success of Creeks, who suc- ceeded in obtaining the support of a majority of the electors in many To- .caiities where their community Is In the minority. Many such elections have been &flnuiied by the local su- 1hofttieS In cbnsequefiee of petitions to the great annoyance of the Greeks who now threaten to abstain from vot- ing.
 in some cases the Greeks appear to have cause to complain of the arbttary action of the local authorities, in oth- CTS the Turks accuse them of corrupt practices. but As a general rule it may be said that the Greek vote Is better organized and the Greek population more interested in the elections than Is the case with the Mosiem rivals.

 Rome, October, 3I.--A rather unexpected result, iA threatened from the action of the' Roman Municipality in sassuming to itself a monopoly of bill-posting on the walls in the city.
 This is nothing less than the project of utilizing the exterior of the churches on which to post bills. There Is very bitter feeling, aroused by this project. mad 1t is not confined to church -goers. but 1t also finds H-expression among those who have a sense of decency still left. The announcements that one meets with on the walls today are not always of the most moral charsc- ter; but to put posters of this type on the facades of churches ls an outrage upon decency and proprtety.
 There are publications of the foul est character announced on the post CTS already affixed to the walls, and to put these or such as these on churches Is a gross insult to the peo- pie who attend these places of wor- ship.
 People ask what Is to prevent this ty- hannical authority from posting bills even within the churcheS?

Letter from Mrs, chappell Cory. Ala. bama Director for Arlington Monn-. ment Fund. .S- My Dear Daughters of Alabama Divis-
 ion: .t4
 It is so short a time before the Gens eral Convention. U. D. C., meets in an : nual session in Atlanta. Ga, anal have received so few contributions for Ar lington Monument, that II 'nftfetN fafff send this gentle reminder to the chap ters of our State.
 I know that you have not forgotten. that the sreateSt work of the general body N. D. C.. to come b~fore the Att lanta Convention. is this monument to be erected in the beautiful Confeder- ate section of the National Cemetery at Arlington. Col. Hilary 4. Herbert nev- CT said a better thing about this mon. uAnent than this: Tt is gratifying td remember the many monuments already erected elsewhere to our illustrfovs dead; but these memorials are all more or less local. Even the splendid shaft that honorg the memory of Jefferson Davis In Richmond, the Capital of the Codeederacy, will be unseen and indeed unheard of by many of tho niiiions who in future at this Capital of our reunited country, wifi visit the Nation al Cemetery in Washington"
 The convention is only two weeks off and hear from other States that their chapters are sending in splendid con- tributlons of which these respective States will feel proud. Shall Alabama. our own. our native State. alone lag behind? Shall the cheeks of Alabama's representatives at the Georgia Conven- ton be made to Durh when AIabama's sum Is given7 Believe me, should 1 be called on tomorrow to render my report. not one of you could lift ilp your eyes for very modification. But believe in their patriotism. their loy- aIty and their love. I have no fear but that the daughters Of Alabaftaa win hold up the giories of their State" 7.
 It IS not yet too late for e contribu- ton or a promise and those who con- template sending before the convention can best reach me care of the Birm. ingham Trust and Savings Co.,, Birm- ingham, Ala. The convention, rernem- her. meets November Ii. so send right away.
 The very smallest and youngest chap ter in our State. the Childrens' Chap ters, and even citisens of Alabama, should send contributions to this cause, for many noble Alaabmians sleep be- heath the green mounds of Arlington Cemetery.
 Yours in love ana faith. z, Mrs. ChappelI Cory, .1-
