he lived and was always found on the
right side of every public question. His
neighbors found him to be a man of
honor and he became endeared to them
by his social nature and upright bear
ing. In his association with the Con-
federate soldiers he manifested a lib
erality Of spirit that won for him the
respect of those who had been his foes
in battle. He took part in our cleo
tons, and when opportunity afforded
him he advocated the election of and
voted for the Confederate soldier. He
%contended that then should not be con-

exemplifed the brotherhood of man.
Arounl his grave stood former foes
with crosses of honor upon their
breasts, won in the same war in which
the dead had also won an honorable
name on the field of battle.
There were Confederates who had
faced the deadly fire of his command

Cardinal Lauds Nurses Work.

Baltimore-In a short address TO
the graduating class of st. Joseph's
German Hospital Training School for
Nurses, Cardinal Gibbons intimated
that the women whose solfcitude was
concerned with the alienation of hui
man sufferings and the consolation of
the afflicted were much more appre-
cfated by the world in general than
those who spent their time advocating
certain rights for women. He said,
with twinkle in his eye, that he was
sure if there were any young men mat
inclined in his audience,
they could readily decide for them
selves from which class they would Sc
lect wives.
Il remember said the Cardinal,
that, nearly sixty years ago, L was
with an illness that was be-
lieved to be fatal-yellow fever. 1 was
a boy in New Orleans at the time,
and 1 was extremely i'll. Though
did not have then the attention of
my good physician, Dr. O'Donovan,
had an excellent Creole doctor, who at
tended me and who did good work in
bringing me back to health. But as
much as L owe to him for snatching
me from the jaws of death, believe L
owe still more to the faithful nurse
who cared for me-"

NEGROES Plan fight
AGAINST ROOSEVELT

Washington, Oct Sat a joint
meeting here of the executive and
campaign committee of the National
Independent Political League, negro
organization, a program for active
participation in the coming State and
congressional campaigns was adopt
ed. According to the leaders, speak
ers will be sent into districts and
States in which there are candidates
who, in the opinion of the league, are
unfriendly to the black race. <s
The preliminary program contern-
plates the support of the Democratic
State ticket in New York, and oppo-
sition to all candidates known to be
pro-Roosevelt; support of the Demo.
cratic ticket in Ohio and of Republi-
can candidates for the legislature,
who are friends of former Senator
Foraker; support of the Democratic
ticket in Massachusetts and opposi-
ton to those candidates for the leg
islature who are pledged to Senator
Lodge; in New Jersey the league
leaders say they will support the
Democratic ticket, but will bend their
efforts to the election of a Republi-
can legislature. In Delaware and
West Virginia, the league is to lend
it's aid tho the Republican candidates.
According to the committeeman.
much of the organizations work will
be undertaken with view to admin
istering a rebuke of the Brownsville
affair, when a number of negro sol
diers were discharged after the
shooting up" of the town in 1906.
