ROMANCE OF CIVIL WAR
is RECALLED IN PASSING
OF MRS. ]. E. B. STUART

next day he returned to his post
and got a brief leave of absence to
visit her for three days. He pro-
posed and was accepted. He re-
turned to Leavenworth to march
with his regiment against John
Brown and his insurrectionists on
the Kansas plains. Soon afterwards
he married Flora Cooke.
At the outbreak of the Civil war,
Lieutenant Stuart resigned his com
mission in the United States army
and threw in his lot with Virginia.
Colonel Cooke, his daughter, then
the mother Of two sons, and her
husband, met in Washington, and
the two soldiers babe farewell, each
with a prayer on his lips that they
would never meet in battle.
The young mother returned to her
home in northern Virginia to wait
and pray that her father and hus-
band would not cross swords out
where the war was raging. Time
after time as the conflict swept
across northern Virginia, she would
follow on the outskirts, and often
she and her husband would meet on
the fringe Of battle.

when the struggling armies of the
Confederacy were fighting with their
backs to the wall, and Stuart came
to be one of the strong arms Of the
waning cause, he led his men one
day in a dash around the wings of
the opposing forces. Suddenly a
blue uniformed cavalryman, whose
horse had been shot from under him
in the tempestuous fighting, blazed
away at General Stuart with re-
volver. The bullet tore a gaping
wound in the generals breast. He

side, the plumed cavalier passed
away.
At the close of the war, the gal
liant cavalryman's widow bravely
turned her face from the past to the
future. She established a fashion
able school for girls at Staunton, and
most of her pupils were daughters
Of Confederate soldiers Of Virginia
and other southern states. She had
resided here with her son-in-laW, r.

Widow of Famous Southern
CayaIrynnan and Daugh-
ter of Northern General
Dies at Age of 50

NORFOLK, Va, May 10.-Mrs.
Flora Stuart, widow of the re-
nowned Confederate cava1ryman,
General ]. E. B. Stuart, and daugh-
ter of Major General Philip st.
George Cooke, Of the Union forces,
died here late Thursday at the
home Of her son-in-law, R. Page
Waller. She was SO years old.
While out walking Sunday, Mrs.
Stuart fell, sustaining a blow on
the head. Complications developed
and death resulted.
Mrs. Stuart had looked back on
nearly three-score years of widow
hood. The glory of her husband,
the plumed cavalier of the Confed-
eracy, and marked today as the
greatest leader of cavalry America
has ever produced, has gained with
each passing year. She had been
his wife scarcely ten years when
her dashing soldier husband was
killed in battle.
Romance has been woven around
the courtship of the great Confed-
crate cavalryman. Mrs. Stuart was
one of the most romantic figures in
Thomas Dixon's 1.-THE Man in Gray

in which the glory Of General
Stuart and the heroism Of his beau

striking phrases.

Georgia Peanut
Growers Plan for
"Victory Week

ALBANY, Ga, May 12.-At a
meeting of all field service men,
council chairmen and organization
chairmen of the Georgia Peanut
Growers Cooperative association
held here today plans were made for
Victory week." May 1929, when it
it is expected that the minimum re-
quirements of permanent organiza-
ton will be completed.
Each county Of the twenty-five in
the preliminary organization was
taken up for a detailed report on
the work in it to date, and sug-
gestions offered for completing
the quotas of those that had not
gone over the top and for increasing
the number of contracts in those
that have passed the so per cent
mark.
Col. r. E. L. Spence, executive
chairman Of the new market asso'
citation, was enthusiastic over what
he declared was the positive success
of the cooperative movement. Vic
tory is in sight, he said, and so Ger
tain was he of this that he has ar.
ranged to extend the work to middle
Georgia next week.
Speaking dates are being planned
for Laqrens. Wilkinson, Hancock,
Baldwin, Jasper, Putnam and Madi-
son counties, in all of which -coun-
ty organizations will be perfected
such as are already functioning so
we'll in south Georgia.
The association now has nearly
40, 900 acres under contract, and the
number of contracts is between q
250 and 1900. The acreage pledged
to date really amounts to a bigger
percentage Of the 1928 crop than
of the 1922 crop, for it has been de-
veloped that several counties will
plant considerable less peanuts than
thew did last wear.

the downgrade and the buying pow
er Of the world declining, but the
reverse is the case. American bust
ness is. still on the upgrade, wages
have been and are still be increased
and there is no chance Of a buyers
strike. The recipients, Of these high
wages will buy what they want, in
Guiding cotton goods att present or
higher prices. Foreign countries
with few exceptions, are in much
better condition than a year ago
and their production of things of
value and their buying power is
gradually increasing. Stocks of cot
ton goods are relatively small every
where. There has been no Overbuy-
ing by merchants, but on the con
trary, they have bought only their
nearby requirements and must be
in the market continually from time
to time in order to replenish their
stocks. The demand for cotton
goods by consumers continues in a
most satisfactory way.
while for the next crop, we win
have increased acreage, increased
use of fertilizers, and larger use of
poison, the loss of labor in some
sections could easily cause some
abandoned acreage. 1t is now May
8, and planting is not yet finished in
the northern half OF, the belt, which
is a serious matter in view of the
need of having an early start be-
cause Of the weevil. Speculation has
sold the market to a fare-you-Well
=
anticipating a burdensome crop
next season. AS we go into the
new crop under practically famine
conditions of supply, I consider that
we need a crop of thirteen million
bales minimum next year, and with
the prospects of world conditions at
that time, think it should bring
twenty-five cents or more. 1t is a
far cry from nine and three-Quar-
ters to thirteen millions. and there
is no assurance whatever that we
will make thirteen millions. On the
whole, the crop is getting off to a
late and poor start.
Foreign Market Better
"The chances are for gradual ad-
iustment of troubled politics, whicn
would react very faVorably upon
business, with the world gradually
getting back to normal which, OF
course. would mean an Improvement
in business and great demand for
things made Of cotton.
According to the government s
report just issued, the growth Of
cotton exclusive of American i'll
1922 was 100000 and in 1922
23, 100000. Foreign countries can
not quickly increase their produc-
ton to any great extent, though
present prices induce them to make
the effort, SO prices will chiefly be
governed. so far as the amount of
cotton is concerned, by the size of
the American crop.
I'm view of all of the above, L am
convinced that we will have much
higher prices shortly, and also that
on account Of forward sales to
mills by merchants, fresh purchases
which will be made by mills. and
the scarcity of cotton, that we will
see a much higher basis for spots
compared to the contract market. ~

Day at White House
Shows Busy Time
For Chief Executive

WASHINGTON, May 12.-Follow-
ing President Harding around the
clock leaves one painting.
1t takes all the presidents reserve
energy to hold the stiff pace he sets
for himself. Yet, crowd the clock
as he will, he finds "a hours all too
short for the daily duties of the
worlds biggest job.
No matter how jading the day be-
fore, the stroke of Z finds the presi-
dent up and splashing in his bath.
BY he has dressed and shaved
without the aid of a valet-break-
tasted, glanced over the morning pa
pers, read his personal mail and
dispatched any urgent business at
hand.
The presidents usual routine calls
for a short stroll in the back yard"
of the white house. with Laddie Boy
frolicking at his heels. Sometimes
he takes a golf club and tries few
shots while Laddie Boy joyOusly re-
trieves the ball for his master.
The Grind
The real grind of the day begins
by 9. An endless stream of callers
flows in and out of the presidents
office. Cabinet officers present prob
lens, politicians urge appointments
and citizens beg favors. Engage
ments lasting from half minute to
half an hour are clicked off with
clock-like precision. ,
:, Twice q week-Tuesday and rFf-
: days-the cabinet meets at IL. I'm
| til / or after, affairs, domestic and
international, are discussed by the
president and his advisers and big
decisions are made.
At 1, as a rule, comes the visitors
line-hundreds Of citizens from
every walk of life and every part
of the country come daily to pay
their respects to the president. Since
he entered the white house little
more than two years ago, the presl-
dent has shaken hands with several
hundred thousand Of his country
men.
After that comes luncheon. Even
meal times are not spared the presi-
dent for relaxation. More frequent
ly than not his meals merely serve
as time for conference period
with advisers.
On fair days when no problems
press, the president sometimes takes
the afternoon off for golf. Usually,
however, the routine of office con.
tinues throughout the afternoon and
the president seldom leaves his desk
until after six.
Frequently the President and Mrs.
Harding like to have few friends
in to dinner. Afterward, since Mrs
Hardings health again permits, they
occasionally go to a theater.
Whenever possible the president
loves to spend a quiet evening at
home with Mrs Harding. They
talk things over" just as they did
back in Marion. Like other men who
have gotten ahead" the president
relies on his wife's advice even in
big problems.
After Mrs. Harding retires for the
night, the president goes to his
study. There in peace and quiet,
without Interruptions of the day, he
lights his pipe and tackles the
knotty problems that confront him.
He seldom goes to bed before mid
night and more frequently it is 1
and 2 and sometimes 3 before he
calls it a day"
