Vanished Hopes.

The following was written on th'
back of a five hundred dollar Con
federate note by Major Jones of th'
Confederate army, shortly after th'
close of the Civil War. The few
verses recite sadly the story of th'
lost Confederacy and the poem shoult
be in every Southern scrap-book.
Representing nothing on Gods ear tn now,
And naught in the water below it..
AS pledge of the nation that's dead and gore.
Keep it, dear friend. and show it.
Show it 10 those who will lend an ear
To the tale this paper can tell,
OF liberty born of the patriots dream,
OF the storm-craddled nation that fell
Too poor to possess the precious ore.
And too much of a stranger to borrow,
We issued to-day promise to pay,
And hoped to redeem on the morrow.
The days rolled on. and weeks became years.
But our Golfers were empty still;
Coin was so rare that the treasury quaked
If dollar should drop in the till.
But the faith that was in US strong indeed,
And our poverty well discerned:
And these little checks represented the pay
That our suffering volunteers earned.
We knew it had hardly a value in gold,
Yet as gold our soldiers received it;
1t gazed on our eyes with promise to pay,
And each patriot soldier believed 1t.
But our boys thought little of price or pay,
Or bills that were overdue:
We knew if it bought US bread to-day,
Twas the best our poor country could do.
Keep tit tells our history over,
From the birth Of its dream to the last;
Modest and born of the angel hope,
Like the hope Of success it passed.

Changes In Parcel Post System.

On Tuesday, July l, two impor-
tant changes went into effect at all
postofices. One of the new rules
permits the sending of parcels C Cd.
The other and most popular order is
that regarding the interchanging of
stamps. This order is to the effect
that parcel post stamps and regular
letter stamps may be used inter-
ehangeably. In other words, one
may use parcel post stamps on let
tiers and letter stamps on parcels, a
thing which has heretofore been
prohibited.

of effort. He became conspicuously
identified with all the states leading
interests, in the production of coal, oil
and timber, in railroad building, town
prises of various kinds.
1t was in his mind that the thought
originated to build the West Virginia
Central and Pittsburgh Railroad. By
opening up access to the coal and tim
ber lands of the greatest value he
sprang at once into an important posi-
ton in West Virginia affairs. Public
life finally brought him in contact
with prominent men of wealth, and be-
fore he had left the United States Sen
ate he had enlisted several of these
men in great industrial enterprises,
The town of Davis, in Tucker county,
West Virginia, was named after him.
He gave many practical proofs of his
attachment for this town and other
places in West Virginia where he had
lived at different times. He became
the possessor of an enormous fortune
and the most important man in West
Virginia.
Mr.. Davis first entered politics at
the close of the war. Having been a
strong union man his sympathies were
at first with the Republican party
then newly born, and he became can
didate for the legislature. A few years
later, however, he cut loose from the
Republican organization and joined tEe
opposition. In 1866 he was elected to
the lower house in the legislature as
Union-C Conservative and took lead
ing part in it's deliberations. Two
years later he was chosen state sena-
tor as a Democrat.
In 1871 he was elected United States
: Senator from West Virginia as Dem
, ocrat, receiving almost the unanimous
/ support of the legislature. Six years
later he was reelected, and during two
years of his second term, when the
Democrats were in control of the Sen
ate, he held the important position of
chairman of the Committee on Appro-
priations. He was, in fact, one of the
leaders of the Senate. At the expira.
ton of his second term he declined to
become candidate for reelection,
fearing that his political duties would
Interfere with his large business in
ierests. He continued, however, to
/ take an active interest in politics.
In the Democratic national conven-
tion of 1884 Senator Davis was one Of
! the foremost candidates for Vice
President, and doubtless could have
had the nomination, had he not refused
it. He supported Thomas A. Hen.

Mr.. Davis was urged to accept the
Democratic nomination for Governor
but declined. He was a delegate to
seven of the national convention of
the Democratic party and in 1904 was
nominated for Vice President on the
ticket with Judge Alton B. Parker, He
was one of the United States delegates
who formulated the scheme for bring

VENERABLE
Ex-senator Davis Is Ninety
Years Old
Will Celebrate The Anniver.
SaFy Tomorrow

Washington, D. c., Nov. 15-Al-
though still triie weak from his re-
cent illness, Henry Gassaway Davis,
former United States senator and in
1904 nominee for Vice President of the
United States on the Democratic tick
ct, will celebrate tomorrow the 90th
anniversary of his birth with a fair
prospect of being able to enjoy life for
some years to come. His days of
strenuous activity have passed, it is
true, but the venerable ex-senator is
| too active and energetic man to al
| low himself to give up all work. He
has retired from active political life
and transferred the greater part of the
| work connected with the management
of his numerous and important busi-
ness interest to younger shoulders,
but his mind is still active and clear
and he still continues to superintend
the various enterprises in which he is
financially interested.
| Henry Gassaway Davis was not born
in the lap of wealth. He was born in
Baltimore, November 16, 1923, as the
son of poor parents. He was boy in
his teens when his father died, and he
was forced to shift for himself and to
help in supporting his mother. For
while he worked on farm, but at
the age of nineteen he obtained posi-.
ton as brakeman on freight train
on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
His work was so satisfactory that he
was soon promoted to be freight con
ductor and afterward passenger con.
ductor He was quick to realize the
great possibilities of what was then
Western Virginia. He foresaw its de.
velopment and invested his savings in
these rich lands. The outbreak of the
Civil War found him man of means
When the great conflict was at an end
and West Virginia had become a sep
arate commonwealth, Mr.. Davis
branched forth into still greater fields

PURCHASE OF LAND
Commandant Simpson VIII Make Re-
port Before Any Final Action
Is Taken on Subject

Mountain Creek, July 1L-tSpecial)-At
the meeting of the board of control of the
Alabama Soldiers home the executive
committee composed of three members,
were authorized to purchase the 20 acres
which is across the road from the home
farm, provided price and details We're
suitable. This 20 acres is now under lease
and nine years yet remain before the lease
expires. The lease was made by Col JEFF
Falkner and at his death the property fell
to his widow. who disposed of the same,
subject to the lease, to Mr.. Roberts, and
now should the home authorities deal for
the 20 acres, it is to obtain from Mr.. Rob
erts any right, title or claim that is sub
ject to his signature.
The home people have erected a consd-
cradle number of buildings. etc, on the
property which, to a certain extent has
increased the value thereof.
The matter has been placed in the hands
of Capt. J. NJ. Simpson by the executive
committee, and he intends to handle the
question and report to the committee for
final action
