FRANK L. STANTON.
TheyTll meet no more at Richmond"
the men who fought with Lee
Who met the marching legions of Sher-
man to the sea ;
Who blazed the way with oStonewsll,� |.
and carved their glorious names
On the battlefields of Richmond of
oRichmond on the James.�
They'll meet no more at Richmond:
.. their brows .are bowed = and
white :
And faint the camwfires flicker from the
valleys of the night ;
And oFarewell� echoes ¢ aoe the lines
where flashed their crimson
blades,
And the shadows deepen, deepen
~round the boys:of the brigades. T
They'll meet no more ~at Richmond,
where every battle-clod
In red memorial roses send messages to
God ;
Where brave and bright they taced
the fight where Lee and Jack-
son led,
And left the dim vales glorious with
the ashes of their dead.
They'll meet no more at Richmond
The long nightTs shadows fall ;
OTer the dividing ramparts the phan-
tom captains call ;
And oFarewell� echoes down the
lines where flashed their warring
blades"
A long farewell to Richmond from the
ooys of the brigades !
TELLER FOR BRYAN,
connects
Piedges Him His Support in the Race
"The Sulyer Cause Must Win.
Lineoln, Neb., July 18"That Wm.
J. Bryan will receive the support of
Henry M. Teller, of Colorado, there
can be no longer any doubt. Mr,
Bryan to-day received a letter from
Senator Teller, ia which he assured
him that he would support him in his
race for President. The letter re~
ceived reads as follows:
oDenver, Col., July 18, 1896.
oHon. Wm. J. Bryan. Lincoln Neb :
oDear Sir :"I congratulate you on
your nomination at Chicago. I think
the country is to be congratulated also.
I need aot assure you that your nomi-
nation was more than satisiacsory to
me. I think we shall be able to consol-
idate all the friends of free silver in
your support, and it we do this, I Te-
lieve you wil! be elected, although I
do not overlook the tremendous power
that will be put against us in this cam-
paign. All the power of money and
organized wealth and monopolies of
allkinds will be against us. Justice
is on our side, and this is the cause
of the people. It is.a contest for in-
dustrial independence and for freedom
from the domination of foreign powers
and capitalists, and it docs not sem
possible in such a contest before
the American people that justice
should fail, and wr?ng prevail,
not believe we shall faii. I think I
can ~premise you the cordial ' support
ot the Western silver men, who have
heretofore acted with the xepublican
party, and it you get that, I think all
of the Western coast and inter-moun-
tain States will be with you, and I will
not offer any Suggestion to you, save to
advise you that as you were nominated
without pledges of favor or privilege to
Died.
We are sorry to learn of the death
of Mr. Theopolus Bland, which occur-
red yesterday at his home, near Grif-
ton. He was taken with a congestive
chill and soon passed away.
| Silver forces Should Un:te.
Colfox, Iowa, July 15."Gen. James
B. Weav Populist candidate for
President in 1892, said toa group of
his friends at his home :
oTI believe the Populist and tree sil-
ver conventions will nominate Bryan
and Sewall. It is the moral duty of
the silver forces to make common cause
and unite in supporting the Chicago
nominee. It is the great opportunity
of the century to surike a telling blow
for the liberty of mankind. The St
Louis conventions will rise to the gran-
deur of the occasion and do their dnty.
I believe that long before polling day
the election of Mr, Bryan will be prace
tically conceded.�
The Body Found.
eal
\
~.
The body of H. J, Hoyle, whos. was |
drowned from, or near, the O. D. S.TS+
CoTs. wharf on February 12, 1896, was
founa Monday evening about 6 oTclock,
near the locks, about two and a_ half
miles down the river, by Marshal Kin-
saul and a negro by the name of
Banks. ~The body had lodged under
some brush and was discovered by ~he
colored man who came up to this city
and got Mr. Kinsaul to go down and
get it. It could not be ascertained
whether the body was decomposed or
not, as it was covered very badly with
mud. It was thought, by many, that
it was ina good state of preservation.
It was remarkable that such should be
the case after six{months lying in the}.
water. The body was turned over to
|the undertaker and pronefly buried.
WeaverTs and FieldTs Position.
In 1892, the Populist nominated
Gen. Weaver, of Iowa, and Gen. James
G. Field, of Virginia, fer President
and Vice-President. It has already
Ido.
been announced that Gen. Weaver will
heartily support Bryan and Sewall.
Judge Gentry writes to a friend in
Atlanta :
oGeneral James G. Field, a promi-
nent lawyer and farmer of thi3 section,
and who was on the ticket for Vice-
President of the Populist party in the
the last National election, said in the
presence of the postmaster and others
of this place yesterday that he expected
to attend the St. Louis convention on
the 22nd instant, and would exert his
influence to get the standard bearers of
the Chicago convention indorsed by the
Populist National convention and was
opposed to his party making any nomi-
nation.�
oWith both the nominees of 1892 tor
the Democratic ticket, why shouldn't
all other advocates of silver fall in line?

EUROPEAN LETTER.
(From our Special Correspondent.)
Rome, Italy, July 15, 1896."A
visit to the Catacombe is one of the in-
evitable duties of the traveler here, no
matterT how little time he may find
for anything else, It is indeed of un-
failing interest to all sorts and ~condi-
tions of tourists, from the studens of his
tory or the archeologist to the man who
~js odoing� Europe inT five weeks, ard
who decides to give forty-eight hours to
the Eternab City. The latter, it is
true, is disinclined to waste time on the
Catacombs, being under the impression
that we have mines and tunnels i
America which are as interesting and
more practical ; but he comes because
some one has told him that they must
béoseen ; nor does he feel that his time
thas, been wasted, when he returns.
First there is the drive along the
Via Appia, where careful eyesT may
find some of the original stones, placed
dong before the era of » Christianity,
Even the unimaginative must think of
the feet that have passed over them"
from triumphal processions of Caesar
and Titus to the weary tramp of fet-
tered slaves ; not to mention the dis-
tinct vision that arises of the little
group of disciples who went to meet
Paul as far as Appii Forum and the
Three Taverns, and came back with
him ~to Rome. Then when you
have reached the garden that surrounds
the entrance to the Catacombs of St.
Calixtus (there are several: rivals, bat
~this is the most popular) you climb
down into the dark passages, you ~deci"
pher the inscriptions made by the early
Christians who found a hiding place
here ; you gaze at the spot where the
body of gentle St. Cecilia was found,
-with its severed neck; you listen with
rising hair to the story of the tourist
who. was separated from the rest of hisT
party, and who wandered helplessly in
these miles of labyrinth for days; and
owho was nevér found again, or accord-
oing to some vernious, was finally dis-
covered in an imbecice condition, | This
is always related, and makes you
clutch your waxen ~taper moreT tightly
and follow closely the footsteps of the}.

returned at once to suffer martyrdom,
and the scene of the vision is com-
memorated by the impress of ChristTs
feet on the stone"much the same
story that is told in other countries of
Mohammed and of the angel Gabrief
In this case, however incredulity is
excusabie. The stone is uucovered
(after you have paid for the privilege of
selling it) with much formality and
reverence ; there are the outlines of tha
two feet ; but the observant can distin-
guish the marks of toehails, leaving one
to infer that the bungling artist desig-
ned the same on the bottom of the
feet.
Another chapel, further out, on the
snpposed site of PaulTs execution, is
ealled the church of the Three Foun-
tains- A bare-footed friar explains
that as the head of the apostle fell from
the axe, it rebounded three times. At
every spot where it touched the earth a
spring of waterarose. If any skeptic
doubts this piece of history, the inge-
nous monk says, with an expressive
gesture oBut do you not see the

WNC INDIAN POMPEIL
Once the Versailles of India, but Now a
Desolation.
Nothing sadder or more beautiful
exists in India than the deserted
city of Fathpar Sikri. There it
stands, some 23 miles from Agra,
much as it stood 300 years. ago when
Akbar decreed the stately pleasure
house. It was. built to commemo-
rate the blessing of the holy Salim
Chishti, the hermit, who dwelt
among the wild beasts in his cave
at Sikri, and who had foretold that
AkbarTs son, born on that spot,
should live to succeed him on the
splendid throne. The saint did not
foresee that the infant would grow
up into that unmitigated debauchee
Jehangir, whose orgies amazed Sir
Thomas Roe, and whose potent
liquor caused that virtuous em bassa-
dor to sneeze incontinently, to tne
delight of the whole court. But the
heroic toper did not defile his fa-
therTs palace city, which must have
been deserted soon after its found-
at's death, for when William Finch
lying like a waste district and very
dangerous to pass through at nigist *
Ruinate it has remained ever sinc:,
desolate and abandoned. No late
ruler of India has ever dared to lit

heights of AkbarTs genius. In tre

some memory of the greatest of In-
dian emperors. We may even en-
ter his bedroom"the khwabgah, or
~~abode of dreamsTT"and see the very
screens of beautiful stone tracery,
the very Persian couplets, the iden.
tical decoration in gold and ultra-
marine upon which Akbar feasted
his eyes during the long sultry ait
ernoons cf tho Indian plains. We
may walk into the houses of Faizi
and Abu-1-Fazzl, the laureate and the
premier of his empire, who sang his
glory and chronicled his reign. We

7 oWOMEN DISLIKE STINGY MEN.
Especially When the Latter Invite Them
to a Restaurant.
If there is one object of dislike to
a woman, itisastingy man. Now,
by this we do not mean that the fair
sex are anxious for aman to spend
more than he can afford, but they
do feel that it is due to them when
they are invited out to have the
privilege of seleting what they want
from a menu without being prompt-
ed by their host to select what he
prefers.
The man doesnTt have to say,
oYou must take this, or you mustnTt
take that.T A woman is quick to
recognize the saving keynote when
he says: ~~What will you have? I
think I will have a sandwich,�T and
though she may loathe sandwiches
she feels it her duty to say, ~~Well,
then, I will have one too.T�T Some
mean men know that they can easily
bulldoze a woman this way, and it
would serve them just right if their
guest were to say, ~Well, for my
part, I prefer terrapin, some fresu
mushrooms, a canape Lorenzo and
some Nesseirode pudding.�T
Oh, no, we never do say that. Woe
are guided by the inflection in the
wanTs voice and take whatever hs
wants us to, whether we like it or
not. Now, we donTt object one bit
toaman being economical. Itisa
praiseworthy trait, but for goodness
sake donTt have him practice it when
be takes a woman out to luncheon,
dinner or supper. If he really canTt
afford anything she might ask for,
be has no right to invite her. Let
bim do the elegant .ess frequent]:;
and do it right when he is about it.
The woman of the world will per-
baps order a more extravagant meal
then he would desire, but she wonTt
break him if he entertains her but
once in decent style, instead of three
or four times in poverty stricken
fashion that makes his guest want
to pass her purse across the table to
him to help him out of his difficulty.
There is no pleasure in eating under
such circumstances, and a woman
would feel much more pleased with
a man if no such suggestion were
made and she thus escaped an exhi-
bition of his meanness. Let it be
said right here that the really poor
dency, and philosopher and theolo-
a"
man is not the one to get into such
a@ predicament. He knows he canTt,
and hestays out of trouble by not
inviting you to a swell restaurant
and then looking pained if you order
something beyond what he had ocx:
pected. It ig the man who wants to
make a show of being a ~thorough.
bredT who too often proves conclu.
~sively by some episode of this sort
that he is not.
~*My boy will know how to order
when he grows up,TT saida young
mother the other day, ~~if I have tc
write out the menu for him evers
| time he takes a young lady out.
There won't be any ~what will yon
haveT'about it, but he will select a
dainty little meal that will relieve
her from the embarrassment of se-
tection, but wonTt be made upof the

does not care for his cioive, to make
