A protest against the design of the
memorial to the Confederate women of
the South which was approved by the
Confederate Veterans at the U.C. v
Reunion last May, was entered by Mrs.
George Fl. 1.iehenur of New Orleans at
the late convention U d c. held at Lit
tie Rock, Ark. November S-r2, 1910.
This protest and resolutions passed
III the. convention arc now being con
zi5gred by the chapters over the State.
In her letter Mrs. Tichenor says
To many ofsthe Daughters the pro-
posed monument to the Women of the
Sixties accepted by the Confederate
Veterans Mt the reunion in Mobile is
wholly inadequate to represent the
n1atchless women whose memory it II
designed to perpetpate Nay, more. we
believe tbat the design gives an utterly

supposed 10 commemorate the women of
t5f-6s, d period Of four years that
evolved i special type OF Southern
wanauhood -but the design has singled
not one feature, Wholly ignoring the
long, brave days Of selfless loving en-
1eayor that shonI from our mothers,

il Is but just that We should have a
voice in deciding what we think ftly
hands down their memory to the future,
Il is intolerable that they should be
judged BY this false thought moulded
into form, which represents the Kinney
ida Of those wonen--not the women
themselves.
Were this design for single f1onu-
taent, chosen by an individual State to
represent its Confederate women OF
61-6s ottr Aohe would be silent, for VIZ
would have neither the right 1'pr the in-
chnation to oppose It But when il

possible. This assured other crops in

On April IA, 1911, after an illness OF
a few days. Rev. w. j. Wyly, the be-
loved pastor of Allison Creek, Beth
Shiloh and Bowling Green churches fell
asleep. During his busy pastorate OF
two and half years, by faithful and
untiring ministry, he endeared him.
self to the hearts of this people,. From
faithful service In the church Visi-
BILE, God removed him to the general
assembly's church of the first born In
Heaven. Truly may it be said he doth
rest from his labors and his works do
follow him.
Be it resolved:
/. That we bow our heads in humble
submission to Him who maketh all
things work together for good to
those that love God.
2. That in his death we sustain a
great personal loss, for he strove to
walk in the footsteps Of the great
Shepherd, ministering as one who
must give account unto God.
3. That we extend our deepest SYM
pathy to the bereaved family and COM
mend them to the sustaining grace OF
Him who hath promised to be a God
to the fatherless and widow.

Philadelphia, May 10: Frank Nc
Mahon, a saloon keeper, who shot and
killed George Leary, wealthy real
estate operator near the latters home
in West Philadelphia on last Thurs
day night because, as he declared,
Leary had ruined his daughter, was
committed to prison without bail, af-
ter a brief hearing before magistrate.
He had been rearrested on an affidavit
sworn to by a member of the dead
mans family, after being discharged
by the coroner. The latter official, af-
ter an inquest, stated that Mcmahon
was justified and instructed his jury
to bring in a verdict generating him
on the ground of "self-defense." In
tense interest has been aroused in the
case through the number of letter from
Miss Mcmahon, who is % years of
age, to Leary, who was SO years OF
age, which have been made public by
the latter's family since the tragedy.
It was announced before the hearing
by the attorney for the dead mans
family that Leary, in his will, which
had just been found, had made liberal
provision for the girl. The estate is
valued at between 100000 and $780,
600. Leary's family, who are wealthy
in their own right, stated that they
will not contest the provisions of the
will, but will spare no efforts to Sc
cure the conviction of Mcmahon on
the charge of murder.

Successful Pioneer Work.-We con-
gratulate the York Live Stock associa-
ton upon the success Of the cow and
dairy show held at Yorhville this week.
We had somewhat high expectations
with regard to the value Of such an
exhibition, but from the reports re-
ceived the affair has exceeded rather
than fallen short of the plans laid.
The attendance has been large and
enthusiastic. Not only has great in
terest been manifested in the stock on
exhibition but earnest attention has
been given the various lectures upon
cow and dairy topics delivered by ex-
perts.
The Yorkville enterprise partakes
of the nature of pioneer work and we
hope that attention will be given to
Ii throughout this section. There is
large opportunity for profit If our far
mers go into this particular line more
extensively than has heretofore been
the case, but in order to reap these
profits the work must be undertaken in
modern fashion. If the raising of stock
and the operation of dairies be con-
Quoted in a haphazard way there Is an
equally wide opportunity for heavy
loss. The ideas to be picked up at
such shows as that held in Yorkville
and the interchange Of experiences
which are indulged in at such times,
will inevitably increase general knowl-
edge on this important matter.-Char-
lotte Observer.
