RED SHIRT WITH A HISTORY
Garment Was Worn During Civil War
by Edward Smith of Los An
geles-NoW on Exhibition.

An old red calico shirt that was
worn in the Civil war by Major Ed
ward D. G. Smith, a brother Of DR..
S. J.. S. Smith Of San Angelo, is on
exhibition in the window OF the Pio-
neer drug store The shirt has a his
tory, and 1t has been carefully pre-
served by DR.. Smith, says the San
Angelo Weekly Standard.
Major Smith was wearing It when,
as superintendent OF Confederate
transportation on Red river, in 1868,
he was captured by the federals at
Fort De Rusey, La, with a garrison
Of 230 Confederate soldiers He had

ton Rouge and New Orleans.
Major Smiths career as a Confed-
crate prior to his capture, including
service in the battle Of Shiloh,
Miss, and Perryville, KY, among 9th
ar encounters with the federals. At
Perryville a bullet wound in his chest
proved fatal years afterward, al
though he was out of the hospital in
lust few weeks time and received
another bullet in his body at Nash
Vile.
In a letter from Memphis to DR.
Smith in San Angelo, in 1886, the ma,
jor describes the battle of Shiloh and
discredits the story that the Confed
crates did not surprise Grant at that
place.

Whether this man was correct in

With Songs of Recruits
People Remain Silent as Battallons Of

voices-like a sullen sea rolling on
short of rock The armistice has been
proclaimed, but the streets pf Sonia
ire filled with reserves who. battalion
after battalion, are being dispatched
10 the front. to fiji the sickening gaps
It roll call, and TO mix new strength
with the tired valor OF the veterans.
At the beginning of the war Bulgaria
had expected to raise barely 100000
men. On the establishment OF truce
there were already over 100000 in the
field. Now 100000 new conscripts are
gathering toward Adrianople and
Tchatalja. And still this calm, fierce
little nation is not exhausted, Many
men remain. II Turkey shows the
least sign Of arrogance or of trickery
the war will go on.
Tramp, tramp, tramp sound the feet,
Four by four the recruits filed by
young men between 90 and 80. They
are singing. Is it song? 1t is more
IKE the battle growl Of some slow
moving monster reused to fury, says
a correspondent for the Chicago News.
The threats are deep and hoarse, The
music breaks and pauses in odd, stern
rhymes "Slavna Bulgaria." Tramp,
tramp, tramp. "Slavna Bulgaria."
Tramp. tramp, tramp. The uniforms
are old and muddy and torn. They
are the color of earth The faces are
those Of a stolid pcasantry-not too
stolid, however, to feel the fires of un-
quenchablo patriotism burning within
those broad breast. "Slavna Bull
garia!" growl the suIlen lips. From
the head Of the column the chorus
echoes back: "Slavna Bulgaria."
Tramp, tramp, tramp. "Slavna Bull
garla" Yes, GLORIOUS Bulgaria."
Come look az Sofia in war time. 1t
ts gayer they say, in peace. The
Gwarming crowd in the square before
the old white mosque, whose narrow
minaret rises like an admonition into
the blue sky, chartered louder, they
say, and bartered longer, in the days
before the war. But even now the city

east than at Belgrade The general
effect is more Asiatic, more pictur

Belgrade is an overgrown village, a
city in the formative state. Sofia is
already city, compact and individual.

London-Jezreel's temple, at Chat

an enormous cost as the Temple Of
the New and Latter House Of Israel,
is sold. 1t comprises a large unfn-

than 1C0 feet in height flanked by
towers and shafts and having an area
of 10000 square feet.
This extraordinary building, which
is a conspicuous landmark for miles
around. was commenced in 1852 by a
British ex-soldier named White, who
after an attack Of sunstroke in India
proclaimed himself the prophet Of a
new religion and adopted the name Of
James Hershcn Jezreel." An article
of the new faith was that none of its
diciples should ever visit the barber
and the Jezreelites became rapidly
known in the locality and beyond it.

Of followers and started little colony
