1t was a bright spring day. The
beautiful valley of Virginia lay car
pet Of soft green down which the sill
yer thread of the river ran, and far
tains lifted in purple haze.
But Polly was not thinking a bit
about these things. She was worrying
about her party, for her tenth birth
day would be tomorrow and there was
not a sweet thing in the house. Polly
father and brother were in the army,
the farm was all torn up, the fences
burned to keep warm, most Of the cat
tie used by the soldiers and things
looked awfully blue to this little Con-
federate girl just budding into life in
the midst of the desolation OF war.
Polly sat on the stump OF an old
tree and cried at the gloomy prospect.
Then she caught sight of horse com
ing down the road, it's galloping feet
beating a tattoo swiftly on the hard
pike. The horse was specked with
foam and the soldier wore a blue
uniform.
Goodness" exclaimed Polly, run
ming I'D on the porch and hiding be-
hind big chair, lit is Yankee!"
When the rider got in front of the
house he leaped from his horse, gave
it blow and sent it flying down the
road, then he ran up on the porch into
the front door and burst into small
study, which had only one door. In
few minutes five men in gray came
by the house and kept on at gallop,
evidently thinking they were chasing
the Union soldier, who had fled and
hidden in the house. Another minute

OPELIKA

Opelika. March 13.-(Special )-With a fine spirit of cooperation, a number of Opelika's leading business men held a conference with MT. George Lanier a well known capitalist of West Point. Ga, and president of the Chattahoochee Val icy railroad, relative to the proposed ex- tension of that road from Jester to this city, a distance of about 17 miles. At the conference, MT. George Card, secre- tary of the Opelika Chamber of Com merce, presented Opelika's claims and in- ducements in a very attractive manner. MT Lanier expressed surprise at the fine showing made. and said he would piace the matter before the board of di- rectors for consideration. He stated it had not yet been decided definitely to what point the road would be extended. but there was no doubt of the fact that the road would be built either to this city or connect with the Central of Geor- gia at a point between this place and Columbus and that construction would begin at once.
 After some discussion pro and con the president of the road was offered a bonus Of S25,0O0 to bring the road to this city, and the tentative proposition will be taken up with the board of directors for consideration.
 Nessrs. N. P Renfro, John Smith, T. C. N. Hodge and l.. F. Dickson were ap- pointed a committee to canvass the town for the required s25,00O. Fifteen thousand of the amount was subscribed on the spot. and Opelika will go down in its jeans and dig up the remaining $1O,O0O in a jiffy.
 If the road is secured construction will begin at once and pushed to a finish. Ii is estimated that the road could be built and equipped by October l. The building of this road would mark new era ir the history of Opelika.

~ ance of womans clothes.
 It was taken for granted that they were mystified by every aspect of her outfit and knew so little of the terms appropriate to feminine clothes that a distinct branch of humor developed con- sisting of attempts to describe wom- ans dreys with incoherent results such as biased on the hem and inserted tuc1s,' and things like that.
 This pleasing lack of knowledge has completely passed away and the extent tc which men are initiated is trying to degree.
 They know just why you are not well dressed (there is legend that simple muslns used to enthrall and baffle them) and they find no difficulty in ex- ing suggestions as to ways and means of your looking better.
 They used to-so we are told-and it is one of those "Old World" stories that one likes to beleve-be oblivious to de- tail; now they say with a firm voice, the result of clear-seeing, noting eye;
 Those hairpins are a little too dark for your hair; brown ones can be had, you know, of just the right shade and for your veil, you really should have invisibles."
 The shock of the thing is so sharp, so sudden, it is cold blast blowing from an unexpected quarter; it shrivels and reduces to a mere nothing that object at which it was directed; a woman's old time assurance leaves her; she is not
