Tribute to 1. w. HirSch.

L NJ Moore of Ninety-Six ad-
dressed on Monday to the editor of
the Columbia State the following
tribute to his veteran comrade at
Manassas, w Hirsch of Charleston:
In The State of July % your
special from Charleston speaks of |
w Hirsch in connection with the
battle of First Manassas and the
company he had the honor of serv-
ing with-Company B, Butler
Guards, Kershaw's old regiment.
Second South Carolina infantry,
Your correspondent states that Mr.
Hirsch and Mr. Diver of Anderson
are the only two of that company
now living. That is mistake. Your
humble servant is still living. as are
DR. E F Rowley, S A Townes, Luther
Hawkins in the city of Greenville.
and two or three more. living in
Greenville county. This old company
had a record hard to beat from
Manassas until the surrender. In
the battle of Gettysburg this COM
pany carried into battle 46 men, and
out of the 46 in that fight "A were
killed or wounded. Mr. Editor, it is
not the company so much ! wish to
speak of but the individual-I W
Hirsch, my old comrade, Isaac Will
lam Hirsch, who is Jew. He and |
were boys together at Greenville.
When the war broke out both went
in the same company. In that grand
Army of Northern Virginia was the
flower of the South
81 saw Mr. Hirsch do what | never
saw any other man do. Having been
badly wounded and sent home, as
soon as he was able to return to his
company he came back-unable to
walk without the aid of a stick. He
went into the worst of battle when
he could not walk without the aid of
his stick; and, crossing his feet, he
would put the stick between his legs
and give Uncle Sans boys in blue
the best he had in his old rifle. Could
Napoleon or Alexander boast of a
better soldier? Father Ryan and w
part those two took in
the Confederate army has made
tender spot in my heart for the
Catholic and the Jew, and am as
far from being either as any living
man. But any man who wore the
gray with honor, dead
or alive. is my brother

Stieff Pianos
"Sine Their Own Praises"

One of the greatest characteristics of
the past and present day is INDLVID-
UALITY. The individuality of the
STIEFF PIANO is its chief charm.
There is no other piano just like the
STIEFF. Others try to initiate. but
somehow they fail to reach that ''ev-
erything' and individuality" charac
reristic of the Stieff Piano.
The STIEFF PIANO enjoys still an
other Individuality foreign to any
other great make. 1t is sold direct to
the user. This Individuality" secures
an ideal Piano, one that will meet ev-
cry demand of the greatest pianist or
most oxacting musician at moderate
cost. Write for catalogue, prices, etc.

The negotiations for the moving
of the plant to this city involved
the questions of railroad facilities.
fuel, water and suitable site. all
OF which were settled satisfactorily
to Mr.. Myers and with the signing
Of papers the last two days in this
city everything has been arranged
Tor the establishment and successful
operation OF the plant at Hartland.
4 For railroad facilities a switch
will be built from the factory north
ward to the river where connection
/ will he made with the clarksburg &
Weston Traction company's trolley.
over which for short distance o.
two or three squares the freight cars
will be run to connection with the
West virginia & Pittsburg division
of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad.
AN agreement has been closed be-
tween the traction and railroad
companies whereby the railroad may
use the traetien cempany,s track as
noted. The latter track has eighty
pound steel rails and s quite suita-
rble for the purpose. 1t is the in
tention OF the railroad company to
use a heavy freight engine for
the light engine now in use in that
switching purposes there instead Of
locality.
While practically all circum-
stances are propitious for the estab-
ilishment OF this big industry here.
there yet remains one problem to be
solved. which may delay the early
operation OF the plant. This is.the
/ question OF dwelling houses for the
] employees The glassworkers will
begin arriving here the first Of
September, whether the plant is
then ready for operation or not. and
the first OF those to arrive will be
men with families. Fifty dwelling
houses will be needed by September
and as many more within the fol-
lowing month or so. Here is a great
opportunity for local capital and It
is hoped by officers of the Board Of
Trade and the Mountain Company
that Clarksburgers will meet this
opportunity and thus prevent the
necessity of going outside for the
capital and enterprise needed
