The shaft will cost $2,500, and of this amount Just a little less than $2,000 Is now In hand. This money was raised In part by small contributions from over the globe, and. by hard work and entertainments of all kinds. The Kennesaw Chapter is composed principally of the Daughters of the Con federacy In'.Marietta shaft and soon bids will be ask* will be three bases of graduated sixes, the largest ohc 12 feet square. On each base will be a die. and on each die a cap, On these caps will be erected the shaft, which will be octagonal, and will be built of the best granite obtainable. The monument will contain an inscrip tion of the Confederate banner, the Cross of Honor, the badge of the Daugh ters of the Confederacy and Insignia emblematic of the war and of the Con federacy'. The shaft will be on a splendid emi nence. Just In front of the speakers’ stand, in view of the city, the railroad and the street car line. The cemetery Is now owned by the state and a bill will be before the legis lature soon asking for old In keeping up this city of the Confederate dead. There Is no more historic spot In the state than Marietta, which lay directly In the path of Hherman’s famous march, nnd which Is now the home of 3.000 of the Confederate dead from every state In the South, Including Missouri and Maryland. 1 The shaft, upon which work will soon begin nnd which will be unveiled April 26. will be at once a splendid nxldltion to the cemetery and a fitting memorial to those 3,000 brave men who fell In the defense of their principles nnd *thelr homes, nnd who are burled within its oenflnes.

We uro enter ing the t'anauns into.which they had fh« hardihood und fnr-*!gb ted ness to suupmm A Romance of Heroiam. This story I* one of I he fluent In the best hook of flne stories. Twelve spies. It will he recalled, had !»een *cut Into ('nnnnn when the wandering children of Israel reached the border* of their Promised Land. Ten returned ferror s!rlcken. The walled cities, aud the ferocious won* of Aunk, hail overawed thorn. Two alone, while admit tin# these dn tigers, yet said that Israel was able to make the conquest. Hut the panic-stricken people threnu-m’d them with death by atoning. The majority ruled —ami died miserably for Its pusillanimity. Duly two men of all that company above twenty year* of ago ever lived to enter the Promised (.and; nnd those two were Joshua and Caleb, the aples who had made the bra rave repo. . Now. forty-five years after. Caleb is ask in# nothin# Itetter of his old comrade arms, Joshua. Israel's new hwlor. than chance to go up ugalust those same walled ttles which had seared the manhood out of his ten associates, more than a genera tion before. Hear the old warrior, chafing battle at au age when niu»t men are In their graves: I am this day four ; s«*ore and flv old. As yet I am ss strong this dsy as I was In the day that Mows sent me; as my strength wn* then, even so Is my strength now, for tvor. and to go out and to come In. try, whereof .lehovnh spokh In ttvlf day; for thou heanlest in that day *lbfw the Aunklm were there, and cities great and fortified; It may he that Jehovah will be with me. a ml I shall drive them out. as Jehovah spake." A Man Who Did Not Whimper. Never a whine In that declaration. Caleb was not exulting over Ills weaker asso ciates. nor failing at his nation for its past treatment of him. He bad known hard times, bitterly hart I times, hut his life had not been embittered. He w**s ns free from tho spirit of whimpering as from the spirit of fear. Nor ilh! he nsk any odd* or concessions or special privilege*. Then* was no attempt to plead Ids age or Ills past service or his tribal relationship as an excuse for au easy berth. Surely we should have forgiven old Caleb If hi* had been content to pose as it •’has been," and to seek u soft and com fortable assignment In the new land. Yes; hui we should 1mvn missed .the' Inspiration of his heroic.example, lie Was sheer man hood ui» to the end. All he asked of Hfo was n brave man’s-chance. Apparently he had never '.earned the Hebrew synonym for the modern Americanism, "pull.” lie was the name adventurous spirit upon his last appearance that he had been at first. When I have talked with old men who at itbe late eventide of life lire still doing great work—such as Edward EYorett Hale. W. A. I*. Martin. Theodore Cttyler, Robert Coftyer—It has seemed to in** tlmt the very eonsunuuntlgn of success Is to be able to continue to achieve until the very end. One crowded hour of glorious life. It is trne. Is I letter than long years of commonplace- ness; but why not a protracted career crowded with glorious life? finch was Caleb’s, and nt 85 he chafed to go up agalust the formidable Inhabitants of Heb ron. Hit Futurt Behind Him. A common tragedy la that many lives do not fulfill their early promise. Caleb’s did. lie kept on as he began. Caleb the veteran Is the natural complement of Caleb tho young man. Many men, though, for whom it brilliant future was predicted, lmve left rears their future behind them. Their noble youth Special to The Georgian. Anniston Ala..

In his youth gave great promise of la yot.._ „— _ power. He had vision. His Ideals were * ’ lift exalted. Ills spirituality was vital and glowing. A passion for helpfulness con sumed him. nnd many weak spirits leaned upon him. Now, well post middle life, he has attained cUurehly eminence—and the contempt of nil who know him well. He Is an ecrleslnstlcal politician, slick, smooth, cunning; holding, apparently, no principles that may hinder his worldly prosperity, lie Is promluent, but not great; eminent, but n failure. He will die “unwept and nn. honored.” although uot, perhaps, “unsung.' for the machine of which he Is a part will some day bury hliu with fitting honors Yet those who knew and loved the real mnri that he once was, mourn na for a lost soul As yesterday's dinner will not sustain c man tomorrow, so early ideals and faith fulness will not suffice for the demands of age. Caleb’s claim on Hebron wa* not merely Ida brave report as one of tho twelve spies; It was his present ability to go In and conquer the hill country. Between Ida youthful nobility nnd hi* patriarchal snb- Imlty there were crowded decades of faith- perlence. There are people arising I pemhT year* ago. There Is no grip nor power In such testimony. It la what happened to day that counts. Present relationships aro flan needs to he on his guard to keep personal spiritual life a present experience. A Fighting Man’s Faith. The man who. In the face of bitter and powerful misrepresentation and opposition. Is doing more for the American name In Chinn than any other. Judge L. F. Whllfley, said to nm one day In Shanghai. “Next to honesty, the most Important quality In life Is courage." It was a voice of experience out of the thick of battle. Ami It Is a word for the times—whether spoken by old Caleb, of ancient days, or one of his later types. Expediency has been the donduaut note of a great deal of modern-life; a great deal of fighting must yet be done Imforo this can he supplanted by truth. Many men will have to be misunderstood nnd criticised and antagonized before that brave day can be fully brought In which put* truth above everything else. The life platform of Caleb might he sum med iip In those word* from the Naalmist. which would make u splendid motto for *nv young Person facing life: “Walt for Jehovah.

He was a man who wholly followed .lenovan* mu nt iuhima i.kn.-.i. ■ • Jehovah; nnd. of course, Jehovah is hound •o vindicate nil sueh.

FOR "DRY" VICTORy They Combine in a Desper ate Battle For Local Option. Wilmington, Del., Oct. 25.—Detawars women are organising rapidly and com. pactly for service on election day N 0 vember 6, In the fight for antl-licens. enactments In all parts of the ttate The vigor with which the women have come Into the thick of the strug. gle has caused more uneasiness to sa! loon-keepers than any other factor in the struggle. I “The long-tongued women are nialA Ing this tight a hard one.” said one nt the 'leaders of the license forces ih» other night. lne "It Is more correct to say,” remi.a Mrs. Elizabeth Marks, president ofth! Anti-License Federation, "that the broken-hearted mothers aro making th» trouble for tho saloons.” Shoulder to shoulder with Mrs. Marks In the struggle are men and women of many creeds. From Kansas to aid the women In their campaign has come Assistant At torney General Trlckett, who raised the Kansas anti-license legislation from the farcical code which lax enforcement had made It Into a set of law, that are obeyed and respected. "Our work.” said Mrs. Marks ye,ter. day, "Is, above everything else, nractl- cal. Wc get the women Interested first and. through them, reach their hue.’ bands, sons and sweethearts. "The work In Wilmington Is a sample of what la being done everywhere In Delaware. The city has been divided by our organisation Into districts, and in each of these, a women’s committee goes from door to door enlisting the cu- operation of women In each household Men are seen and argued with some- times, but the primary work Is done with the women.” "What arguments do you glr* to.vour women recruits to be used with their male relatives and friends’" "Practical arguments. We show the money that could be. saved If saloon, were abolished. In Wilmington. We point to the crimes that are causdd bv liquor, tho deaths that result Indirectly from It when it weakens the human system and makes It the easy prey of such diseases as pneumonia, heart dis ease, Insanity and other maladies. "We show the unhappiness that cornea Into millions of homes through drunkenness and the loss, not merely of self-respecL but of the respect of the community. We show tho number of positions that have been lost through the use of Intoxicants and the million, of dollars that are frittered away an nually over the bara of Delaware. “With these arguments go thousand, of personal, practical experiences told by women In all parts of the state ami th« knowledge by the men that the arguments and the experience, are true. "The churches are with us. More than 80 per cent of the women are with us. We are In earnest and we are In the fight not only for this year, but for every year while the local option law shall remain on the atatnte books of Delaware.” Only One "BROMO QUININE.” That Is LAXATIVE BROMO < QUININE.
