there. There are services in the
kmorning for the white people and ser.
arate services in the afternoon for
negroes. Flowers and oratory and
Women's tears pay tribute to the
dead. Now and then, between times,
old, white haired men, one-time COM
rades of those who rest here, drift
into the cemetery and pass remin-
iscent hour or so beside the graves
of the dead; and occasionally a pal
sled old lady, widow Or sister of one
of them comes trembling into the
presence of the headstone that marks
the last resting place of him who
was more to her than all that was
]eft of the country for which he died,
and stands weeping for a space be-
side his tomb.
The children of a later generation
love to gather there on bright Sun
days. The place is so beautiful and
so orderly and breathes so calmly
the spirit of quiet benevolence. Many
OF them are descendants Of men
who fought under Lee or Jackson or
Forrest or Johnson; but there is no
sentiment of sectionalism in their
hearts when they enter this quiet
acre.
There are no confederate dead
buried in the National Cemetery at
Memphis. This is not due, however,
to any rule excluding them, but rath-
er to the fact that there are other
cemeteries which for family and other
reasons were preferred. In some of
the national cemeteries, notably at
Shiloh, there are many Confederate
dead buried, and an effort has been
made by the Federal government
to induce the extension of the prac-
tice as well as the erection of suit
able monuments, markers, etc.
The care of the grounds is in
trusted to a superintendent and a
number of assistants. There is plen-
ty of work to do. Shrubbery is to
be trimmed, grass to be mown, walks
and buildings and fences are to be
kept in repair. 1t is seldom now
that an interment takes place here,
The present superintendent is
Capt. Joel M. Ferguson. He has been
in charge nearly two years. He
fought in the Army of the Potomac,
and came to this post from Camp |
Nelson, at Jesman, KY The fault !
less order in which grounds and |
buildings are always kept is the
best tribute to his fidelity to his
charge.
The superintendent's lodge is a
substantial 12-room brick cottage. It
S embowered among the trees and
vines, and is the scene of much un-
)stentatious hospitality. The grounds
ire open to visitors throughout the
lay, the rules prescribed by the
for the conduct of the

RAILROAD RATES.

The Long Prairie Leader has had
each week for nearly the past year an
article on railroad rate discrimination
in Minnesota, and is doing fine work.
The article following is to show how
the roads are refusing in different
cases to make the confiscatory rate
Of two cents per mile: -'.
"The city papers of last week an
nounced that the Great Northern, the
Northern Pacific and the 500 roads
had offered a two cent (or confsca-
tory rate from the Twin Cities to the
lakes in northern Minnesota for those
who want to 60. fishing. The rate
is to be operative as soon as the fish.
ing season opens. '>:
There is no announcement of
change in the three cent rate to farm.
ers or those occasional travellers who do
not have time to fish.
i If a st. Paul man wants to take his
wife and 60 to Park Rapids, there to
spend few days outing among the
flowers, the woods and the streams they
can ride at two cents: per mile. But
if Park Rapids citizen wants to take
his wife to St. Paul for an outing,
there to attend lecture or a concert
or other entertainment, they must put
up straight three cents per mile or stay
home.
"Why the discrimination
"The fish pole is a new basis for
classification in passenger rates that
seems to be altogether original: The
published announcement does not
state if any particular kind Of fish
pole is required to be presented to the
twin city ticket agents in order to
qualify for the fish pole rate so we
presume that any kind Of an old pole
will pass.
However, if the fishermen are SUBJ
divided into classes on same basis that
governs the present classification as to
passengers and rates, the man with a
swell new split bamboo nickel plated
ferrule pole will be given little bet.
ter rate than will the fellow who tries
to climb aboard with just a common,
ordinary cane pole:
t3There is lots Of travel from the twin
cities up into the north part of the
state so now when one Of the travellers
can not put up $40 for q mileage book
and thus get the confscatory rate, he
can secure the rate by: adding fish
pole to his regular luggage equipment.

COALHEAvBR VS.. TYPEWRITER

Harper's Weekly: The girl who is
operating a typewriter iddoesn't appear
to be doing very heavy physical labor
as compared with the brawny individual
in stokehold who is shoveling coal
into. a hungry furnace, but this is one
of the many instances in which super
fetal appearances are deceptive, as a
comparison of the force expended by
the two Will show. ,-@ 49,.
The stoker may be credited, with
handling zone ton: Of coal per hour or
eight tons per day, plus the weight Of
his shovel. Adding the shovel to his
II 900 pounds Of coal, he expends about
10000 pounds Of energy.
For each key struck on the type
writer there is an expenditure of
something over three ounces Of energy,
or, say, one pound to the average word.
A fair operator will average $500
words an hour, or in eight hours 10000
words-12,000 pounds Of energy. To
throw over the carriage for each new
line requires on an average three
pounds of force. Twelve thousand words
will make thousand lines, so there
are 5000 pounds of energy. to be added
to the $4,000, making $4,000 pounds Of
energy =. expended, which " compares
pretty we'll with the: stoker's q, 900, all
things considered. q really fast opera
tor would push the expenditure Of
energy up to $4,000 pounds OF more. i.
