A Story of the Shah.
Brooklyn Eagle.
Some very amusing stories are t<fid here about
the shah. Naturally he receives hundreds of let
ters every day asking for different things,
which are not answered. But among them are
quantities of billets doux from women who
think It would be fun to see the shah and
have a few minutes' conversation with him. as
the interview would be so interesting to tell
about to friends while sipping tea. Now how
some women have their wishes gratified it is
imposstbie for women who cannot do the Impos
sible to say. but some few women do get to
see the shah and the very pretty ones who
find favor in the eyes of the shah generally ex
pect a rich present sent to them. for. very
practically, they leave their addresses. A mo
ment of supreme happiness occurs when
open a small casket and see a ring, brooch or
pendant with a most brilliant stone. But the
poor things are doomed to disappointment, for
tbs first expert will tel! them that the stones
are false. His majesty, the shah, does not
scruple to resort to such deceptions, but I
am sure that If any one dared is question him
about it he would say:
"What can I do? If I give one of my own
jewels to every pretty woman who does me the
honor to throw soft glances at my feet. I would
soon not have a jewel left. As they sav tn
French. You have no sooner given a thing away
than you have tt no longer.’ Now. I am no
more wicked than the great man who. contin
ually asked for his sutograph. has his s>-cre
tary write and send them. The gracious women
at least have the Illusion "
The shah of Persia is quite a philosopher.
It is well, for it must tske a lot of-philosophy
to be a good and especially a resigned shah
Mortality Among Confederate.
Generals During the War 1861-65.
BY DR. WM. B. CONWAY, CO. C, 4TK REGT., VA. CAVALRY, ATHENS, ua
I have written heretofore as a private
soldier, and of matters concerning those
in the ranks when we gained or lost bat
tles, when we slept unsheltered, when un
der the heat of the noonday sun or tramp
ing in sleet or snow. When on the pick
et line, watching in midnight darkness for
the enemy, when we braved all for the
honor and glory of our homes, our loved
ones, our firesides. What of our command
ers? Some have said that "the epaul
letted history has been largely inspired by
vanity or jealouay.” Some northern writer
claims that the civil war was prolonged,
and many campaigns delayed on account
of the inefficiency of the union generals. 1
have never seen a report of the casual
ties of the union generals in any of the
great battles fought during the sixties.
My own experience teaches me, from
what I saw on many battlefields during
the war. that the Confederate officer was
a man of intelligence, courage and mili
tary ability. Our generals were ever in
the thickest of the fight, urging their men
onward. They never ordered us to go.
but in cheering tones and onward dash, it
was al wavs "Follow me." Listen to the
words ot’ a veteran when holding the
bridle rein of "Traveler." he shouted:
to the rear." and again the impera
tive order came from our soldiers I-ee
to the rear!" Was there ever such a scene
on the battlefields of Napoleon's grand ar
mies? See the brave Armstead at the bat
tle of Gettysburg. 50 yards in advance of
his brigade, waving his hat in the air
scaling the works of the enemy and falls
mortally wounded, sacrificing his noble lire
for the cause he loved so well. Man>
other instances could be cited of our
brave commanders, but I have started
out to write something else. So In order
to bring this matter before our people,
and that our young people will ever keep
It iii mind, allow me to transcribe from
the “Confederate Military History the
following biographical sketches of some of
our military heroes, the major and brig
adier generals of a few of the Confeder
ate states. Os these Virginia furnished
70: of this number 15 gave up their lives
for the south.
Brigadier General Lewis Addison Arm
stead. of Virginia, was killed at Gettys
burg. and General Lee writes of him: "He
died as he lived, discharging the highest
luties of a patriot, with devotion that
never faltered and courage that sr.rank
from no danger.”
Brigadier General Turner Ashby, or
Virginia was born in Farquier, county,
1834. He was killed near Harriaonburg.
Va.. June fi .1863. Jackson wrote to Imbo
den: “Poor Ashby is dead. He fell glori
ously. I know you will join with me in
mourning Mie loss of our friend, one ot
the noblest men and soldiers in the Con
federate army.”
Brigadier General John Randolph Cham
bliss was born in Greenville county, X ir
ginia. January, 1833. and was killed in a
charge August 16. 1864. on the Charles < ity
road. His body was buried with honor by
the enemy and soon afterwards delivered
to his friends. General Lee rne
loss sustained by the cavalry in the fall
of General Chambliss will be felt through
out the army, in which by his courage, en
ergy and skill, he had won for himself
an honorable name."
Brigadier General Deering, of v irglnia.
was bom in Campbell county. 1840. Dur
ing the retreat in April, 1865. he was mor
tally wounded in a remarkable encounter
with Brigadier General Theodore Read, of
the United States army. Genernl Read was
instantly killed, but General Dearing lin
gered for a few days when he died at the
city hotel at Lynchburg. Va.
Brigadier General Samuel Garland was
bora at Lynchburg, Va.. 1830. He was
killed at Fox’s gap. on South mountain.
Man-land, September 14. 1862. Had he lived,
wrote General D7 IL Hill, "bis talents,
pluck, energy and purity of character
must have put him in the front rank of
nis profession."
Brigadier General Richard Brooke Gar
nett. of Virginia, was killed in Pickett s
charge at Gettysburg. He was shot from
his horse while near the center of the
brigade, within about 25 paces of the stone
wall. There was scarcely an officer or man
in the command whose attention was not
attracted by the cool and handsome bear
ing o' General Garnett.
Brigadier General Robert Seldon Gar
nett. bora tn Virginia, Essex county. 1819.
Killed on the Cheat river, near Carrlcks
Ford. Virginia. July 13, 1862 Falling, as
President Davis wrote, in exemplification
of the “highest quality of man. self-sacri
fice for others.” .
Brigadier General -ohn Marshall Jones,
born at Chariottsville. Va., 1820. Killed
May 5. 1864. in the Wilderness. In a despe
rate attempt to ra'.iy ! is brigade the brave
commander was killed. General Ewell, in
his report of the campaign, said: "Out of
his fourteen guards three were killed, four
wounded and two captured." and said of
General Jones. “I consider his loss an ir
reparable one to his brigade."
Brigadier General j'llsha Franklin Pax
ton was from Rockbridge county, Virginia,
and fell at Chancelloraville May 3, 1863.
General Jackson, on his death bed, spoke
in serious and tender strains of the gen
ious and virtues of him.
Brigadier General William E. Starke was
killed at the battle of second Manassas.
General Bradley T. Johnson says: "It was
my fortune during the two days of battle,
during which he commanded the Stonewall
division, to be thrown constantly in con
tact with General fetarke. The buoyant
dash with which he led his brigade into
the most withering fire on Friday, though
then in command of the division, made
him to me a marked man. and I regretted
his early death as a great loss to the
army and the cause.”
Major General James Ewell Brown Stu
art was bora in Patrick county, Virginia,
1833, was wounded at Yellow Tavern, Va..
May 11th. and died at Richmond on the
following day. May 12. 1864. John Efitin.
Cook, in describing his last moments, has
written: "As his lite had been one of ear
nest deration to the cause In which he
believed, so Mis last hours were tranquil,
his confidence in the mercy of heaven un
failing. When he was asked how he felt
he said: ‘Easy, but willing to die, if God
«nd my country think I have done my
duty.’ His last words were: 'I am going
fast now; I am resigned. God’s will be
done!’ As he uttered these words he ex
pired.”
Brigadier General James B. Terrell was
bora at Warm JJprings. Bath county, Vir
ginia. 1838. He never wore the title which
is here given him, but made it by his
bravery and devotion, and fell in battle
upon the day his promotion was confirmed
by congress. He was killed near Bethesda
church, Virginia, May 30, 1864. and buried
by the enemy.
THE MORTALITY OF GEORGIANS.
The state of Georgia furnished 43 briga
dier and major generals, and out of that
number seven were killed.
Brigadier General Francis S. Bartow
was killed at the first battle of Manassas.
General Beauregard said of him: “The im
petuous Bartow, whose day of strong
deeds was about to close with such credit,
fell a few rods back of the Henry house.”
Brigadier General Thomas Reed Rootes
Cobb was born at Cherry Hill. Jefferson
county, Georgia. 1823. He was killed at the
great battle of Fredericksburg December
13 1862. after a day of heroic fighting at
the celebrated stone wall, he fell mortally
wounded, dying in a short time in sight
of the house where his father and mother
were married. General Lafayette McLaws
said: “He and I were on intimate terms,
and I had learned to esteem him warmly,
as I believe every one did who came to
know his great intellect and his good
heart.”
Brigadier General George Pierce Doles
was born in Milledgeville. Ga., 1830. He
was killed the 2d of June, at Bethesda
church. Va. This gallant soldier offered up
• THE SEMI WEEKLY JOJRNAL, ATLANTA, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, OCTOBER
a life which had from the very first sound
to arms been devoted to his country. His»
loss was sadly felt by the gallant men
whom he had led and by whom he was
fondly loved, and in his native city, where
he was known as a modest gentleman and
earnest Christian, hts death was deeply
deplored.
Brigadier General Victor J. B. Giradey,
a native of Georgia. On July 30. 1864. Gi
rardey was appointed brigadier general,
with temporary rank, and during the brief
remainder ot his service he led Wright's
brigade. In August he was killed in battle
near Petersburg. No more valiant soldier
than Victor Girardey laid down hfs life
sos the southern cause.
Brigadier General Paul J. Semmes, of
Colufnbus. Ga. in the fighting of the first
day at Gettysburg General Semms fell
mortally wounded. General Lee said in fils
report that Semmes was leading his brig
ade “with the courage that always dis
tinguished him.” and that he “died as he
had lived, discharging the highest duty
of a patriot with devotion that never fal
tered and courage that shrank from no
danger.”
Major General William H. T. Walker
was bora in Georgia. He was killed
in the battle of Atlanta. July 22. 1864. A
vigorous attack upon Therman had been
Walker’s, desire from the opening of thfc

of General Wm. H. T. Walker. A monu
ment has just been recently erected to his
memory in the city of Atlanta. .
Brigadier General *Ed ward Willis, of
Georgia. In the Wilderness and at Spott
sylvania he was in the forefront with his
command. At North Anna river, in May,
1864. while in command of a brigade, he
was mortally wounded by a grape shot.
While he lay dying, word was sent to his
regiment that all who desired to see him
could do so. It was a sad spectacle to see
the grief of his men as they viewed the
gallant colonel in his last moments, while
his life blood ebbed away. His heart never
knew one beat not in unison with the hon
or, Interest and glory of his country.

try.” Gen. A. P. Hill wrote: "No man

His horse was sh >t and he was leading
the right of the brigade on foot, when he
fell, pierced through the heart.
Brigadier General Maxey Gregg was
born in Columbia, S. C., and was killed at
the battle of Fredericksburg on the 13th
of December. 1862. General Lee said: in
Brigadier Generals Gregg and Cobb the
Confederacy has lost two of its noblest
citizens and the army two of its bravest
and most distinguished officers.”
Brigadier General Ancah Jenkins was
born on Edisto island, 1839. He was mor
tally wounded on May 6, 1864, in the Wil
derness. General Longstreet was wounded
at the same time, and writes of him: “He
was cne of the most estimable characters
of the army.”
Brigadier General Abner M. Perrin was
born in Edgefield district in 1827. General
Lee writes to President Davis: "The brave
General Perrtn wa3 killed.” It was just
after Hancock had swept over the "bloody
angle” early on May 12, capturing the
larger part of uohnston's division, and A.
P. Hill was called on for reinforcements,
that Perrin came up, leading his brigade
through a terribly destructive fire, and
fell dead from his horse just as he reached
the works.
So you can see that obt of four southern
states 175 Confederate generals bore with
the privates the hardships and struggles
of a four years’ desperate war. From
that number 36 lost their lives, their all
for the sake of their homes, their wives,
their country. The last breath from many
of these Christian heroes was a message
to their loving wives. God bless these no
ble women! Mrs. Felton says: "The
proudest boast ot the late Southern Con
federacy in defeat is the noble characters
ana virtuous lives of its women. There
may have been spies and traitors among
them, but we have never heard of them
after 40 years of struggle and trial. Today
there is no higher strain known to civi
lization than the anti-bellum wife and
mother of the old south for refinement,
virtue and clean living.”
“XX ho bade us go. with smiling tears?
AX’ho scorned the renegade?
Who, silencing their trembling fears.
Watched,cheered, then wept and prayed?
t
"Who nursed our wounded with tender
care,
And then, when all was lost.
Who lifted us from our despair,
And counted not the cost?
The women of the south.”
AN ENGLISHMAN'S WIFE.
She Is Really His Partner In the Prac
tical Sense of the Word.
Aineslee’s Magazine.
In England a man’s wife Is in reality
his partner, and whether or not the two
are in harmony- with each other in affec
tion. in all material things they recognize
that their fortunes are irrevocably bound
together: that the interests of both are
quite identical, and that each has just as
strong a motive for making things go well
as has the Other, since they share equally
the labor and the reward of labor. They
may have their private disagreements,
but they front the world together.
The wife takes the keenest Interest in
the most minute details of everything that
effects her husband's welfare. She knows
his income to a penny. She manages her
household as a Chancellor of the Ex
chequer manages the nation’s outlay, so
that annual budget shall not only avoid
a deficit and shall accurately balance, but
so that it shall show a surplus. She will
practice a rigid economy, if necessary,
and in doing so she will feel that she is
merely carrying out her share of the mar
riage contract. It id the man’s part to
make money; it is her part to help him
save it. She plans nothing for herself
apart from him; she cannot think of him
as in anything apart from her.
If he is in political life, she enters into
his ambitions with Intelligence and zeal.
She will write his letters for him and en
tertain his constituents; she will study the
bluebooks and teach herself to understand
the’ public questions with which he has
to deal, so that she may discuss them with
him, and follow his career intelligently.
She belongs to him, in fact, as he be
longs to her. There is not much display
of sentiment in an English household af
ter the first year of married life has end
ed; but there is the bond of a common in
terest which grows stronger every day
and every year, and which gives to man
and wife a unity of purpose and of feeling
that will beyond comparison outlast the
cobweb tissues of emotionalism.
CARNEGIE TURNS BEGGAR.
English Wish His Libraries In Jericho
On Account of Maintenance.
Brooklyn Eagle. '
A year ago the curse of Andrew Carne
gie’s existence was the persistence with
which town clerks and librarians through
out the country followed him, hat in hand,
begging him to donate some of his gigan
tic wealth toward thelt own little local
libraries. The smiling little author of
"Triumphant Deniocracy” was obliged to
pull in the drawbridge of his Scotch for
tress and to shout through the mullioned
windows his defiance of the literary and
municipal besiegers. Gradually, however,
there has been a change. ,The besieged
has become the besieger. No sooner have
the people of one district found themselves
infossession of Mr. Carnegie’s munificent
donation, than they awake to the fact that
the whole thing Is a gilded pill, a delusion,
a snare, a fraud, a disappointment, be
cause, you see, when they have built the
library they are obliged to maintain it
themselves at their own expense; and if
there is anything in the world that the
accepter of a free gift loathes it is to be
obliged to pay for its maintenance later
on. There is a universal howl against Mr.
Carnegie’s generosity. If he plans a li
brary in, let us say, little Puddington, the
taxpayers immediately foregather and de
nounce the little Scotchman's impudence
and lack of consideration in forcing up the
rates and taxes of the district. They did
not want these libraries badly. They
merely though* it would be a good thing
to be alongside the times, to have one of
Mr. Carnegie’s gifts in the neighborhood,
but as far as the actual possession of the
treasures of literature is concerned, they
care not a row of pins, and now that the
additional burden has been piled on the
poor taxpayers’ backs, they wish Mr. Car
negie would go to Jericho. It is one of the
most brilliant illustrations of spying down
the gift horse’s mouth that I have ever
seen.
The Great American Idea.
Brooklyn Eagle.
A distinguished guest was coming from
abroad.
"What shall we do to entertain him?” asked
the chairman of the committee of prominent
citizens.
“I’ll give him a dinner,” said one.
"So will I',’ said another.
"Me, too," added a third.
"And we'll end tip In a banquet in which we
will all join," suggested a fourth.
A prominent official was taking a jaunt across
the country in a special train. Six places that
were short distances apart had secured the
promise that he would give them an hour or
more each of his time.
"What kind of a celebration have you
planned?” was the inquiry sent out
"We’ll give him an elaborate , breakfast,”
was the first answer.
"We’ve arranged for a luncheon,” was the
second.
"Same here,” from the third.
"A dinner,” replied the fourth.
“Likewise.” from the fifth.
“Two banquets,” answered the sixth. There
are rival factions here and each insists on do
ing honor to the great man.”
A distinguished club woman visited a dis
tant city.
“We must be hospitable,” urged the presi
dent of the local club at a special meeting
called to consider the question.
Shortly thereafter the meeting broke up In
a row because ten women couldn't feed her
on the same day, and there was further trou4
tie because six other clubs wanted to arrange
dinners also.
The engagement of a popular society girl was
announced
"What shall we do?” asked society.
"Give luncheons and dinners for her,” was
the reply, and a committee had to be appointed
to arrange the schedule.
When It comes to being hospitable this great
republic has only one idea, apparently.
Prevention is better than cure, and you
tnay prevent winter troubles and cure
rheumatism by taking Hood’s Sarsaparil
la, which will keep your blood pure. There
is only one Hood's.
CLEVER LITTLE STORIES.
Chicago Daily News.
In a comer ot England, where belief in
witchcraft still lingers, a local preacher stopped
at the cottage of an old woman who seemed In.
great trouble. He won her confidence and she
told him “her cow wer that bad, she didden
know what wer the matter wi’en. She'd gled
It o’ victuals, but er did sicken to
terrible much that er must be bewitched.” The
preacher’s sympathies were aroused and he
went Immediately to the shed to examine the
animal. Placing his hands upon its
quarters, he said, solemnly; "If It lives, it
lives; if it dies, it dies.” Much to his sur
prise the animal regained Its normal health,
but some time after this miracle had been
worked he himself fell 111. One day the. old
woman presented herself at his door and de
manded admission, but was refused, in accord
ance with the doctor’s order. Nevertheless,
she clamored so loudly that at last her name
was mentioned to the apparently dying man,
who requested that hts old friend should be al
lowed to see him. Entering softly, as one well
versed In the exorcist’s spell, and confident of
its potency, the old woman stepped to the bed
side, and, laying her hand on the suffering
patient, pronounced the magical words: "Pore
feller! If he lives, he fives; if he dies, he
dies!" Strange to say, he recovered.

Points on the Care of

New York Evening Post.
Before sending linen to the laundry look
every piece over for forgotten collar but
tons and stick pins. The laundries are re
positories for more lost articles of this
description than is dreamed of by the pub
lic. Every day quantities of gold and jew
eled articles are picked up. Some of them
are identified and restored, but more are
simply pocketed by the finders. Money
was frequently found in the pockets of
washable waistcoats worn last summer.
A writer in Good Housekeeping urges
against the practice of putting valuable
rugs on the line every two or three weeks,
and beating the dust, and one is almost
tempted to say the very life out of them.
Perhaps this is not generally 'known:
“Wheh the surface become soiled it can
be washed with no fear of injuring the
colors, stnee the majority of oriental rugs
are washed repeatedly before reaching this
country, and the dyes used are’ thereby
mellowed and enriched. The best method
of washing a large rug is to stretch and
tack it upon a clean floor, then scour it
well with soap suds. After the scouring
tt must be thoroughly rinsed-to remove al!
trace of the animal matter in the soap,
after which it should not be removed un
til it is perfectly dried. Then it will not
shrink and wijl lie perfectly flat upon the
door. A small rug may be tacked upon the
side of the house or barn, scoured as if
on a floor, and then rinsed with the hose.”
This is to be an apple year. Apples and
cider will be cheap, and of excellent qual
ity. Cider apple sauce, dear to the old
fashioned palate, is made by simmering
down to half its original quantity a quart
of cider, and adding to the pint of liquid
about four quarts of peeled and sliced ap
ples. If sweet apples are used, as they
invariably were In olden times, it will not
be necessary to use any sugar, but the I
"l -1 1 I
taste may determine this. A piece of
lemon peel is an improvement, but spicee
are not called for. When the apples are
quite tender teat them to a fine cream. If
covered in stone jars and left in a cool,
dry place, this sauce will keep almost in
definitely. i
Deep apple pies with no undercrust arej
always liked. Butter a dish and heap with!
' cored and quartered tart apples. Sugar]
1 and add spices and lemon peel if they are
■ preferred, and pour over a scant cupful of
water or cider. A little dissolved gelatin
■ will give a jellied appearance to the pie.
j Lastly, put an invertea small cup in the
middle of the dish and cover the pie with
I a rich crust. Cut a gasn in the crust to
, allow the steam to escajte.
