War Department Takes Tower
Rock on Mississippi and Makes
1t a National Reservation.

WiTTEN BERG. MO. Feb. i+,-An
oil painting by a woman has saved
to the United States a work Of ma
ture.
Tower Rock is the name Of the
natural wonder. 1t stands out in the
Mississippi. two miles south of here
and 105 miles south of st. Louis.
A quarry concern had begun blast
ing away the splendid tower of lime
stone, almost round and rising more
than hundred feet.
Mrs. j. w. Chaplin. wife of war
veteran. painted Tower Rock. and
her husband looked at the painting
and registered a determination that
the subject thereof should not be sac
rificed
Special agents of the War Depart
ment were sent on. Since Tower
Rock is essentially an island" said
they, and, therefore, does not belong
to Missouri or Illinois, it belongs tC
the United States. Consequently and
accordingly, we, the undersigned
hereby take possession Of Tower
Rock, to have and to hold forever
in the name of the people of the
United States of America"
1t is undoubtedly the smallest ma
tional park in the country. for its
tree covered top is hardly an acre in
area.
Captain James Dryden, OF st. Louis
an old river pilot. born in a house
still standing, a few rods back on the
mainland from Tower Rock, says sc
far as he knows only two persons
have scaled The rock.

PLANS FOR Path.
j. c. \. MEETING
Veterans to Ride in Parade, and
Camps Will Be Abolished at
Big Reunion.

JACKSONVILLE, Feb 14.-The
twenty fourth annual reunion of the
United Confederate Veterans Asso-
citation and Sons OF Confederate Vet
Grams will be held in this city three
days, April 2e, 80 and May /, and
plans for entertaining them are now
being perfected by the officials of the
Jacksonville Reunion Association and
80 committees appointed by President
Foor, of the association.
The Jacksonville program will
change in at least two important par
ticulars the customary reunion meth
DDS. 1t is the purpose Of the associa
ton to put many of the old soldiers
who at other reunions have beer
cared for at a camp, in hotels, board
ing houses and private homes, where
they will have more comfortable quar-
tiers and better entertainment, Jack
sonville believes that 1t will be more
pleasant for the veterans to be cared
for in that manner than in camp, anc
many, IF not all, of them will be as
signed to such quarters
Another change in program will be
seen in the parade of old soldiers. In
stead of walking, they will ride il
carriages and automobiles. 1t is real
lied here that a big majority of the
veterans who followed the fortunes Of
the Stars and Bars are now past II
years of age. Many of them are phys
ically unable to march two hours ir
the sun, notwithstanding the fact thai
they fight It out with their old time
courage and determination. This fact
has been apparent to younger observ-
ers at recent reunions, If not the ole
men themselves.
These proposed changes were sub
mitted to General Bennett H. Young
on a recent visit to Jacksonville, anC
he enthusiastically approved them.
