PLIGHT OF POOR
IS CONSIDERED
Children Three Exposed to Tubercu-
losis; Woman Deserted by Hus-
band and Ill 1s Dependent.

VnaC Is TO De cone TOT Cnree Sm31l
children of Virginia parents who are
compelled to live in cramped apart
ments in one Of the poorer sections of
the city with q mother who is in the
advanced stages Of tubeFculosis I. The
|fathaef works hard, b,dt they are n
poverty.
What may be done for the mother
of three who is just convalescing from
an attack of typhoid fever at local
hospital and who, deserted by a worth
less husband over a year ago, has
since she was confined to the hospital
been bereaved Of her little son, who
died a victim Of the same disease. It
will be weeks before she is well and
strong. In the meantime neighbors
are caring for the children.
These and other human problems
were considered at meeting. of a
number of Virginia people with Rev.
E. P. Savage, of the Minnesota" Chill
dren's Home in the parlors of the
New Fay hotel Tuesday afternoon.
There were OTHER cases. There
were stories where little children were
victims of parental neglect almost
beyond belief. Some of them were of
such nature that they could never be
printed in the newspapers.
Action will be taken in all the cases
to the end that the want and suffering
they represent may be relieved. In
vestigation into all of them was one
of the direct results of the visit of Mr..
Savage to Virginia.
For over a quarter Of century Mr..
Savage has been connected with the
Minnesota Children's home.
During that time homes have been
found for 3,443 homeless children.
Over 800 of. these children have come
from st. Louis county and the range
towns and cities, a considerable num-
ber of them from Virginia. Last
week Mr.. Savage took a cripple child
from Eveleth to a state institution
where it will receive treatment in
tended to correct it's deformity. Sew
eral months ago Mr.. Savage took
from the range child who was blind.
The little one was placed in the state
university hospital. She is regaining
her sight and a case of cataract that
threatened to leave her blind for life
has been relieved. ...*,
Mr.. Savage is always a welcome
visitor to this city and although quite
well advanced in years he is still
vigorous and interested as he was
when he first took up the work to
which he has devoted the best part Of
his life more than a quarter of cen
tury ago.

Pittsburg, July2.-The International
eisteddfod, the great Welsh musical
and literary festival, was opened in
this city today. The predictions that
the gathering would be the largest and
most representative of its kind ever
held in America have already been full
filed. Nearly every state In the Union
and many of the provinces of Canada
are represented among the visitors.
From Wales has come large and dis
tinguished delegation headed by Rev.
Evan Rees of Cardiff, the chief bard
of Wales.
Mr.. Rees has come to the eisteddfod
on a special mission to supervise the
establishing of an American branch of
the Bardic Gorsedd, an ancient insti-
tuition composed of all the leading
literati of Welsh descent in the world.
Mr.. Rees, who is the archdruid of the
order, will assist the Welshmen OF
America in the ceremonies, which will
embody all old rites and customs OF
the parent organizatio min Great Brit
ain.
The prizes offered at the present
eisteddfod for musical and literary
, compositions are larger and more mum
. erous than ever before. The program
provides for competitions for mems
choirs and ladies' choirs. The Welsh
societies fChicago, Buffalo, Cleveland
Columbus, Utica, Harrisburg, Altoona
Pittsburg, Scranton, Youngstown, Phil
adelphia and a number Of other cities
> are entered. The famous Perth Choi
= of Wales also will take part.
The greatest interest of the weel
. centers in the chief choral compet
u ton, which will take place Friday. tn
" last day of the eisteddfod. The priz
y amounts to $1,000, and eac hcompetin

HAVE FAITH IN THE HOME MAN.

1t is true today, as it was 1900 years
ago, that "a prophet is not without
honor save in his own country" A
good deal of the emigration from the
South in times past has been of people
who wanted to get into new communl-
ties because they would have to over
come the difficulties of this lack Of ap-
probation by home people. A Birming-
ham man, who has recently developed
an important enterprise, in letter to
the Manufacturers Record said:
"If had been a Connecticut Yankee
with a wooden-nutmeg proposition l
would have probably been in Europe to-
day: but as | am a Birmingham boy
and was SO unfortunate as to have
nown everyone in the county, that fact
went against me in obtaining recog-
milton. After l had gone to Chicago
Atlanta and these other cities and
proved what l had, my home people
said they always knew that l had the
best thing in the world"
Many an inventor and many a pro
jector of new enterprises has had the
same experience. 1t is common, in
deed, to all mankind. 1t has been, I'm
fortunately, too common in the South
People of the South have not sufhcinet
ly appreciated what their neighbor

| The country agents have received in
structions to collect the choicest ag-
ricultural products in their respective
localities for shipment to Jackson, and
one entire section of the agricultural
building will be set aside for the des

afford an adequate idea of the charac

cultural resources.

four state experiment stations.
"Our exhibit of agricultural product

daughter Of the South as sponsor at
each reunion, and Winnie Davis

Richmond, the Confederate capital,
under the stars and Bars, was the first
sponsor chosen. While she lived no
other was ever considered for the
honor. The sponsors who succeeded
her were chosen for one year only

Davis granddaughter. Miss Lucy Davis
Hayes; General Clement Evans
daughter, Sarah Evans. and Mss Cora
Mallory, granddaughter OF Stephen
Mallory who was secretary of the Con-

But it led to nothing; the Union troops
held Chattanooga. but they could have
done that without any battle. The
Gonfcderates won the battle but failed
to capture Chattanooga, and so they
got no advantage from their victory.
Neither side, therefore. gained anything
by this battle. and it was absolutely
futile TO fight it, That will necessarily
be the verdict OF history. But every
one concerned in that battle was in
deadly earnest, and all supposed that
what they were doing would be an i'm
portant event in the great war. But
history must deprive them of even this
little satisfaction, so that the 10000
men killed and wounded in that fight
Counting the losses Of both sides)
went to their deaths and suffered their
wounds TO no purpose whatever.
The Grand Army of the Republic
is III its annual encampmcnt in Chat
tanooga. The attendance is said to be
very great. Probably this will be the
final large encampmcnt Of that Grand
Army. 1t is fitting that this final Gu
campment should be near the Chicka-
mauga battlefield and immediately
upon the ground Of the battle of Chat
tanooga, Those who were present in
these two battles, or in either OF them,
must feel immense satisfaction in trac-
ing the old lines, noting where the
deadly struggles conferred, and drawing
their own conclusions about everything
that was done and how IL could have
beon bettered. IT is q great panorama
in the historic monuments and me-
MORALS that the Grand Army men are
noting today. Doubtless the main
exercises viii be upon the battlefield Of
and the battle lines will
be again traced; those Of the second
day will be traced tomorrow, and the
steps Of tho sulleu retreat of the
Union forces from Chickamauga to
will be followed with in
terest, both by The Union and the Con
federate veterans there assembled.
Their "reminiscences will enrich the
pages Of history, and the historic
scenes with which they are surrounded
will refresh their minds and enlivcn
their recollections of tho deeds past
and gone by for fifty years.
