SCENE FROM GEORGE KLEINE:S
PHOTO DRAMA EXQUISITE "THE
LAST DAYS OF POMPEu.n

! The Rex theatre has arranged to
give "The Last Days of Pompeii" to
it's patrons on Saturday afternoon
and night of this week. This will be
the greatest moving picture proGue-
ton ever shown in Hendersonville. 1t
is new and has been 90 the road only
a. few weeks. The drama was taken
at Turin and Pompeii, Italy, 5000 peo-
/ pie are said to have been employed in
the making. 1t is a marvellous and
awe-inspiring recital of Italy's great
est tragedy. The eruption of Vesuvi-
Gus was taken by a. motion picture
company twenty feet from the erup-
ton the. last time.
Hendersonville is to be congratula-
ted in securing this of the great
est of moving picture dramas. Owing
TO the expensiveness of the production
the managers of the Rex theatre are
taking a chance at losing on the pro-
position. They regard it as an expen-
fsive but effective means of advertising
and feel that the future patronage will
justify the outlay. If the experiment
proves profitable the management an
Eounees that the popular QUO Vadis'
will be shown at the Rex.
Altho George Kleine's photo drama
production of 'The Last Days of Pom
peii" is more of an idyllic love story
than a spectacular sight, there are
nevertheless some keen thrills and
awe inspiring moments. These are
notable in the episodes in the arena
when the mounted gladiators fight and
in the scenes showing the terrible
eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. The pande-
monium following the eruption is mar
velously illustrated. and demonstrates
wo- 1erful stage craft.

means eventually stopping a great

of the club, which will pay a part of
his salary, that Mr.. Perkins was
brought to Henderson county.
DIS. Pace, following Mr.. Perkins,
said he was counting on making 200
bushels of corn to the acre next sum-

about $50 men in Henderson county

from the Southland with the cold
earth of the North. Whenever 1t was
possible the graves were marked but
tho earth was soggy and the rains
which followed washed many OF the
marks away and even opened UP the
shallow graves. Governor Curte- the
Executive of Pennsylvania, came upon
the scene one day and was so struck
by the sorrow of several relatives of

saddest incident l recall OF the War"
Then came the retreat with all the
attendant horrors OF carrying the
wounded over rocky roads In wagons
without springs. The rain poured In
torrents and the canvas covered wag-
ons afforded little protection to the
suffering men. Scarcely one in a hun
bred had received medical attention
and many Of them died on the way.
When Wiiliamsport, Maryland. was
reached about noon on the Fourth OF
July, General Imboden was compelled
to halt as tho rains had turned the
Potomac into a raging flood, and
crossing was impossible. The men
who had died on the way were given
n decent burial and tho wounded
taken from the wagons and attended
in houses The entire town assisted
in cooking food and doing all they
could TO make the wounded COM
fortab Bile.
A council of war was held in the
Union camp on the evening OF the
Fourth after General Meade had
learned that Lee had left the field.

skirmish occurred on July sixth be-
tween Fitzpatrick and Stuart.
For months after the battle the
field at Gettysburg bore marks of
tho terrible conflict, The soil was
drenched with blood and the little
streams ran red with the blood of the
wounded and slain. The Emmittsburg
road was impossible for days owing to
tho dead bodies of men and horses
covering the roadway. The ground
over which Pickett's men had so gall
l2ntly charged was now field of

trenches were dug and a sanitary sew

ular army tents and furnishings are
neutrality-suspicious. army cots, basias,
buckets. lanterns. etc. Five thousand
of these tents have been put up, each
containing eight cots--one for each
man. TWO lanterns. two washbasins
and one bucket are furnished 10 a
tent. The buckets are of the usual
galvanized type. light in weight yet
strong and durable; the washbasins
are made OF the same material. Pure
water for the camp was obtained only
after considerable labor--four wells
being sunk. one OF which Is five hum
dred and ono feet Deep, A rigid
analysis OF the water has been made
and the officers are satisfied that the
water Is pure. Several tanks, each
holding fifty thousand gallons, were
built. to SUPPLY the numere 8 sanitary

In camp. Sixteen hundre, cooks will
be required to prepare Tao food. They

from their wounds. were present. and
when Mr.. Lincoln began to speak they
pressed forward listening intently to
the President, and when he reached
the well known words Of that famous
speech-"The world will little note
nor long remember what we say here.
but it can never forget what they did
here" great tears rolled down the
bronzed faces Of the soldiers. When
the President finished there was q
profound silence broken only by the
sobs Of the women. many OF whom
had been widowed by the battle. Then
Mr.. Everett stepped forward and
shaking the Presidents hand. said,
"Ah, Mr.. Lincoln, would gladly give
my forty pages for your twenty lines."
There has been much diversity OF
opinion as to the numbers engaged at
Gettysburg and the casualties on tho
part of the South. Longstreet says
that about seventy thousand Confed-
crates were in the battle, but as Lee
was obliged to leave strong guards all
along from Winchester to Gettysburg
the ranks sere somewhat depleted.
General Meade testified that when he
took command the army amounted to
one hundred and five thousand men.
including the eleven thousand of Gen.
eral French which he. Meade, did not
bring up. This reduced the ranks to
ninet;-four thousand. The losse- on
both sides in the three days fighting
were enormous. On the Union side
General Meade in his official report
says they amounted to twenty Eight
hundred and thirty-four killed, thir-
teen thousand, seven hundred and nine
wounded and sixty-six hundred and
forty-three missing-in Gil, twenty
three thousant one hundred and
eighty-six. General Lee IN his report
declares that it is not in his power 10
give correct statement. 1t has been
estimated by the Union officers that
Lees loss was over 1--WE thousand. and
allowing FIVE wounded to one killed,
which is the usual proportion. there
were twenty-seven thousand. five hum
dred wounded. A well-known war
writer places the Confederate losses
killed. wounded and prisoners. at
thirty-four thousand men.
