AN AFTERNOON WITH LEE


 The first meeting of the William L. Yancey chapter, U. Q. C., for the new year proved a delightful one, Mrs. J. J. Eaton entertaining on Wednesday at her home on South Twentieth street, with Mrs. L. H. Alexander, Mrs. J W. Franklin and Miss Foster as assistant hostesses.
 The cold and gloom of the outside world was in striking contrast to the spacious, brightly lighted rooms made So cheery by the glowing logs of the open fires,
 The president, Mrs. T. L. Hobart was in the chair, and the principal business of the afternoon was the discussion of the annual Confederate ball, which will be given on the eve ming of February 22. Mrs. C. J. Sharp is the general chairman, and she will put her various committees to work at an early date.
 Partial committees were named for the general convention U. D. C., which will meet in Birmingham next fall upon invitation of Yancey chapter.
 Mrs. Cory and Mrs. sharp gave in teresting reports of the sumptous dinner and the Christmas tree given to the Confederate veterans of Jeffer- son county by the U. D c. chapters of the district at the Elks hall on De- cember 2S. when more than 200 old men were entertained.
 . All business being disposed of, the historical program was then given, and following the Suggestions made by the historian of the general divi- sion, and in view of the approaching birthday of our beloved leader, beautiful afternoon with Lee" was presented. Mrs. Hall read Father Ryan's great poem, The Sword of Lee" ana interesting incidents of the great general were given by Mrs. Hall, Mrs. Carmichael. Mrs. Sharp and Miss Foster. followed by brief read ings by Mrs. Pierce, Mrs. Dent and Mrs. Hayes.
 Mrs. Carmichael's sweet soprano voice was heard in two pretty little songs, with Mrs. Dent as accom- Z panist.
 Master Wilson Brock, the gifted young son of Mrs. J. w. Franklin. won the applause of his hearers by his splendid rendition of two humor- ous dialect readings, The Boy and the Man" and Night Time Is the Time to Steal" This is the second time that Wilson has favored the chapter, and one member suggested that he be made it's mascot"
 As touching finale to an inspir ing program, Mrs. Carmichael con tributed an old time .favorite, Carry Me Back to Ole virginie," the mem bers joining in the chorus. During the social half hour hot coffee and tea, a fruit salad with dainty bon bons and sandwiches were served. thus bringing to a close one of the most pleasant gatherings of this large and congenial group of patriotic women.

striking Engineer j. L. Turner en-
tered the fleshy part of lower
limb and, apparently, was fired from
an automatic pistol. The trouble. it
appears, was caused by the presence
of armed guards at the Cotton Belt
terminal.
Engineer Turner is one Of the
oldest men in the employ OF the
Cotton Belt, in engineer service, and
the fact that he was shot by one OF
the guards created much excitement.
One report yesterday stated that
$50 trainmen left their jobs as a
result of the trouble that arose. The
guard who shot Engineer Turner
is said to have explained that it
was a case of mistaken identity, but
men of the brotherhoods were not
inclined to accept that explanation
as full reparation for the injury
sustained by the aged employe. In
a nutshell it appears to have been
another one Of the foolish acts of
a guard being too ready or too quick
on trigger to start something that's
hard TO stop.
Engineer Turner, as reported in
yesterdays news account, was a for
mer resident of Jonesboro, moving
to st. Louis a few years ago when
his run on the Cotton Belt system
was changed.
