ECHOES OF .4EMoRIAL DAT.

The newspapers of the past week
have been crowded with memorial adj
dresses. Many of them have been Ct
more than average merit. In some
instances they have been dry resumes
of old arguments, in others simply en-
comiums upon the dead. but the great
er number have had literary charm
as well as a patriotic impulse. hare
enthused as well as educated, have evil
denced beyond question that all over
the South there is ability of higa
type when it comes to the preparation
of public addresses.
One of the most pleasing Of the ad-
dresses we have noticed IS that by
Lucian L. Knight, at Marietta Fol-
poetic imagery it has no superio-

speech of such occasions. Many of its
expressions inger in the mind Ions

MEMBERSHIP IL THE COUNTRY
CLUB.

Membership in the Sumter County
Country Club will be a source of never
ending delight to those so fortunate
as to enjoy the privileges that pertain
thereto.
The club house affords a delightful
place at which to spend a few hours in
the evenings during the summer
months in restfuI idleness. The recre-
ations that will be provided as the club
goes on in it's works of improvement
viii appeal to men and women of all
ages. Tennis courts are an enticement
to the younger sets, while golf more
particularly gratifes the desires for
moderate exercise of those of more
mature years. A bowling alley will
sooner or later add its pleasures TO
tie other amusements that will make
the club grounds magnet difficult to
resist.
The Country Club meets a want
that has been known to exist here for
many years. Up to this time there has
been no place for general recreation,
no place where large numbers could
gather for special social occasions, ia
der the most pleasing surroundings, or
where the individual or a few friends
could pass the occasional hours of leis-
ure finding both enjoyment and new
physical yigor AS social institution
the Country Club here promises to be
I as it is everywhere else, a factor #
the greatest magnitude, drawing to It's
membership a host Of those of genial
natures, who find delight in human as
soc: alton, and who look upon the world
through eyes that are bright with ap-
probation of the gladness of living.
Democratic in its character, embrac-
/ ing in it's membership all of the good
citizens who desire to avail themselves
of it's opportunities, holding UP a hign
standard of conduct, tolerating moth
ing that crosses the bounds of propri-
ETY., the country club is well worthy Of
the active supper of the citizens Of
Americas and Sumter county. 1t has
none of the phases of a money makinS
institution about it. It is purely a
pleasure seeking society. The fun Is
received from it's members are all
distributed for their S.. 4. Every mem
Der has the satisA .5n of knowing
that every dollar paid by him is direct
/ ly expended for the benefit of him and
his friends, to broaden the pleasures
of life in Americas.

NEXT SENATE TO SEE
MANY NEW FACES
Fourteen Republicans and Three
Democrats May Retire.

Washington. April %. Five United
States senators have already an
nounced their voluntary retirement
to private life at the expiration OF
their present terms, March 3, 1911.
They are:
experimentation, Rhode Island;
Hale, Maine; Flint, California; Piles,
Washington.
Democrat-Money, Mississippi.
Former Minority Leader in the
House, John Sharp Williams has
been elected successor t oMr. Money.
It is possible that this list may be
augmented by the voluntary retire
ment of four additional republicans
and one democrat because of the ap-
parently certain defeat awaiting the r
candidacy. The republicans are SEN
ators Burrows, of Michigan; Depew,
of New York; Scott of West Virginia,
and Warren, of Missouri. The demo-
crat is Senator Taliaferro, of Florida.
Five republicans and one democrat
seem destined to fight it out, al
though the present outlook is d'scour-
aging for them, and stick to the con-
test. even if certain defeat is evident.
The republicans are Senators Bever-
idge, of Indiana; Burkett, Nebraska;
Carter, Montana; Du Pont, Delaware.
and Dick, Ohio. The democrat is
Senator Frazier, Tennessee.
Senator Burrows emphatically de-
MED statements regarding his posi-
bic retirement sent out from Detroit.
He declared his intention of remain
ing in the race and predicted that
he would win.

DEATH OF FAMOUS ARTILLERIsI.

Gen e. P Alexander died at his
home in Savannah Thursday, aged IS
years. His death removed one of the
most brilliant of the commanders who
made the Confederate army one of the
greatest fighting organizations the
world has ever known At twenty
nine years of age he was chief of artil-
lery of Longstreet's corps, and had
practically entire direction of the
artillery of Lees army. Gen. Pendle-
ton was the actual chief, but much of
the crucial work fell upon Gen. Alex
ander. At Gettysburg, Wilderness
Spottsylvania, and in other great en-
gagements of of the last two years of
the war, Gen Alexander directed the
artillery movements to a great extent
and won recognition as an artillery Of
ficer of unusual brilliancy. After the
war he was engaged for many years in
the railroad field, serving as Presi-
dent of the Central of Georgia for
seven years in the last portion of his
railroad career. He was probably the
most prominent remaining general of
the Confederacy at the time. of his
death.
All who have ever met Gen. Alex
ander will recall him as a man of the
most delightful personality, charming
in manner, kindly in disposition, and
evidently one who looked upon the
world through eyes unmarried by bit
terness of any sort. The Savannah
Press reviewing his characteristics,
gives his addition to poem by John
Hay as typifying the soul of the man
who has just passed away:
John Hay wrote "The Stirrup Cup
anonymously. 1t left nothing upon
which to base the theory of better
life after death. 1t was as follows

to the poem of Mr.. Hay the following
verse
But storm and gloom and mystery
Shall only nerve my courage high,
Who thro' life's scenes hath borne his
part
May face its close with tranquil heart.
No trembling hand will grasp the rein,
No craven soul the Lath will trace;
THIS life hath not been mine in vain,
In unknown lands I'll seek my place.
