MAKES RocKEFELLER's Al
LEGIANCE TO TAFT TEXT
WoR ARRANGEMENT OF RE-
PUBLICAN PARTY AND THEo-
DoRE ROOSEVELT.

Judge George Turner, the chief
speaker at an enthusiastic meeting
that packed the municipal court
| room last night, provoked pro.
longed applause when he stated
that the Spokesman-R Review, since
Rockefeller had declared for Taft,
to be fair and consistent, should
now declare itself for Bryan.
Del Cary Smith in speech that
followed seemed still further to
express the popular verdict when
he said the Review, in Justice to
it's readers, ought to give the de-
claration of Rockefeller for Taft
the same prominence it would give
it had Rockefeller declared for
Bryan. If the Rockefeller declara-
ton had been for Bryan, the Re-
view office, he said, would not con-
tain type big enough to display it..
| The announcement that Judge
| Turner was to address the Second
Ward Bryan club brought out many
republicans, who joined with the
| democrats in giving the ex-senator
a warm greeting when he arose to
speak.
| John d. Rockefeller has sub
| mitted to an interview in which
he declares that he will support
William H. Taft for the presi-
] dency," began Judge Turner.
"The Review, in editorial leaders
every day for two weeks, has told
us that the Standard Oil was sup
porting Bryan. This statement was
made on testimony furnished by
w. r. Hearst, on whose oath
would not kill yellow dog ac-
cused of killing sheep. Now that
we have the statement of Rookie
Teller that he and Standard Oil are
supporting Taft we can look for the
Review to come out in the morning
for Bryan. This declaration of the
Standard OIL trust, if for no other
treason, would compel me to vote
for Bryan"
| Judge Turner then paid Bryan q
lglowing tribute in which he liken
led his career to that of Thomas
Jefferson. He said Taft was not
concerned with principles, as he
talked on any side of a question
calculated to suit the occasion
and was all things to all men.
Judge Turner has always been ar
ladmirer of President Roosevelt
but seems not to have SO exalted
an opinion of him now.
4 II do not believe that all the
. wisdom in this country rests II
the bosom of President Theodore
Roosevelt" he said. "He is ho'
, blooded and, like all men of tina
temperament, will make mistakes

CLUbWOMEN VISIT
PIEDMONT GALLERY
Artists Discuss Collection of
Canvases With Members
of Art Section
Martinez Asserts Rosa B0nheur
Is Merely Artistic and
Not an Artist

An afternoon of exceptional enjoy
ment and interest was spent by the
members of the California clubs art
section Yesterday, when they Were in
troduced by Xavier Martinez and Rich
ard Partington to some OF the best can
vases in the Piedmont park gallery.
The two artists met the c1ubwomen
at o'clock and went with them from
room to room, dwelling upon the strong
and weak points of the various pic
lures and outlining the chief character
istics of the different schools.
There were sharp sighs from the au-
dience when some especially beloved
canvas was merciIessIy condemned, and
Martinez designation of Rosa Bonheur
as merely artistic and not an artist
raised a little furry Of regretfu1 pro-
test, but for the most part the after
noon was voted thoroughly delightful
and the critics were listened to with
close attention.
Tea in the Japanese garden formed an
interlude between the inspection of the
Piedmont gallery and the exhibitions
OF Giuseppe Cadanasso's work in Oak
land, which was also visited yesterday.
This trip, which was the first of sew
eral to be taken this winter, proved
very successful, and has effectively
aroused the art section of the Califor-
MIA club from the lifeless condition it
has been in since the clubhouse was
burned in the great fire.

II many things seem to indicate the
decadence of religion in italy and
France, there are many others indicat-
I ing It's survival despite the steady per-
secution maintained by the authorities
to destroy il.
A seminarian soldier in the French
army has recently told of the edifica-
ton given him, not only by many OF
his companions. but by officers of high
rank who. despite petty persecution
on the part of the government, remain
faithful 10 their religious duties. All
but three of a whole regiment refused
meat rations on Friday And the
Able Klein recently declared that ac-
tive Catholics are more numerous today
than ever in the French and other
academies. Religion is still very much
alive in France; all the more so for
having to rub up against bitter anti
religious bigotry at every turn.
The celebration this year of Loardes'
golden jubilee has drawn attention to
that popular shrine from all parts of
the world. One unusual feature at the
shrine this year was the presence of a
group Of persons who had been cured

formed a compact body Of 364 hale and

could recover himself the corporal dropped his
gun, seized him by the throat and choked
him down. Sergeant James Copeland saw
them as they toppled over in the weeds and
ran to his aid, putting his rife to the corpor-
al body and sending ball through him and
then pulled him off. After Watson got up he
dubbed him four or five times with his rifle
He had bitten one Of Watson's forefngers
nearly off. AS they leaped our works the sun
had sunk to rest and the sombre shadows Of
night were settling over what our colored
friends might have called their Waterloo
All honor to Major Wayne, the hero of Wa
terloo, and his gallant command and especial
ly the Palmetto boys who served their guns
with such deadly effect. At one discharge
from parrot gun, 50 negroes we're killed, by
a double charge of canister. The Lieutenant
who led the company from the 32nd in the
charge deserves great deal Of credit, for by
his bravery he turned the tide of battle in our
favor. History does not give an account Of
another battle fought with such fearful odds
during the Civil War;
On the afternoon Of the 9th the enemy
planted battery on their line and shelled our
position on the right Of the road until after
dark, wounding number Of men and horses.
During the night we were reinforced by the
2Sth Georgia battalion, 32nd and 47th Regi-
ments, increasing our number to 1900 men,
with General Robertson in command Before
day on the 9th, the troops were drawn up in
line Of battle, with the 2Sth and 47th on the
left and the 32nd and regulars on the right of
the road. AS the first streaks of dawn showed
IN the east, the skirmishers were sent forward
and tackled the works. The enemy replied
with only scattering fire, then the line of
battle advanced, hating within 100 yards of
the works, the 32nd firing several volleys kill
ing several Of our own men. Major Wayne
sent his orderly to see where the skirmish line
was. He found it at the enemy s works, but
not satisfied, jumped his horse through an en-
brasure, then returned and told Major WAYNE
there was not Yankee over there. Then
the line advanced to the works, but Cuffee
had again given us the slip.
The 28th and 47th met with warm recep-
ton, but succeeded in carrying the works
Our loss IN capturing the works amounted to
100 men, killed and wounded, the most of
were sent forward who found the enemy

held the line that we had captured. During
the night our friends boarded their transports

while the regulars held their own until the
head of the fanking column was opposite our
right, then the right of Company M caught it,
hot and heavy, as they had us under a cross
fire. My attention was attracted to the weeds
which seemed to be dancing a jig. I did not
know what to make Of it until looked to my
left and saw that the line had retreated and
left me, target for the whole shooting match.

mand of the company, Captain Hill having
been wounded and left the field; and, strange
to relate, the only one touched by bullet in
both companies during the fight. After re-
treating 200 yards the line halted and COM
menced firing. In the meantime the artillery
had defeated the two regiments on our left and
reinforcements were seen coming on the run
down the line. Company G., with 20 men,
passed me and struck the fanking column,
while a company of the 32nd, with 40 men,
stopped where I was. The Lieutenant gave
the order by the left flank, charge; they turned
to the left flank and halted He tried to force
them to charge, threatening them with his
sword, but he could not bulge them. He then
stepped in front Of them with his sword in
one hand and his hat in the other, and said,
EFollow me, boys' It would have caused
your heart to swell with pride could
you have heard that wild rebel yell and to
have seen those boys charging to the front,
and the regulars who we're never known to
take back seat at fight or frohc, charged
with them. AS the charge got under way
Major Wayne and his orderly dashed in front
of the line and above the report Of our rifles
] could hear him say, "Give them hell, my
regulars" Before we got half way to them,

it was a foot race to our works, loading and
