RELIANCE.
Not to the swift. the race;
Not to the etrong the tight:
Not to the righteous, perfect grace;
Nor to the wise, the light
But often faltering feet
Come surest to the goal:
And they who walk In darkness meet
The sunrise of the soul.
A thousand times by night
. The Syrian hosts have died:
A thousand times the vanquished right
Hath risen glorified.
The truth the wise men sought
Was spoken by a child;
The' alabaster box was brought
In trembling hands defiled. -
Not from my torch, the gleam,
But from the stars above;
Not from my heart life's crystal stream.
But from the depths of love.
—Henry Van Dyke.

INTERESTING FIGURES
.»; ■ AT REUNI0N8.
Miss Mary Hall Is more than a mere
Daughter of the Confederacy, one of
many who bear the same name. She
stands for the living type of the gal
lantly fighting South that refused to
recognise when It was beaten, and that
continued to struggle on. In the face of
the most overwhelming odds, to fight
on and on and on, because It did not
know the meaning of defeat. Miss Hall
has never surrendered. She Is ne much
of a rebel—and she glories in this term
that Northerners have considered one
of reproach—as she was when, as a
young girl,, she shouted herself hoarse
with enthusiasm when she watched tho
boys In gray go marching by.. Com-
g elled to see the llag of the United
tales always above her, she has done,
the best she could to counteract Its ef
fect by Inyarlably wearing Iq her hair
or her hat a tiny Confederate flag.
This Hag does not obtrusively flaunt
Itself. At one time It was of silk, rolled
with hair; now; It Is a Confederate
veteran’s badge, In the present owner
ship of which one suspects a rotnanco
even more pertinent and personal than
that of the Confederacy proper. Who
can say all that the tiny , bit of blue
and red enamel stands for, as It half
hides Itself In the white curls held back
by the flag-clasped black ribbon?
That It stands for much, or that
rather the spirit actuating Its wearing
stands for what the whole South rec
ognises as a great deal, is a truth that
is testified to by tho honors constantly
paid Miss Hall. She Is the only wom
an full member of a camp of Confed
erate members. She marches for miles
with her camp at reunions, and joins
with them In the solemn funeral pro
cessions, She Is the recognized custo
dian of the flag, and has personally
placed no less than 600 pf the silken
emblems on the graves of the departed
soldiers. At the reunion she is the
most prized guest of honor, for the
sake of entertaining whom all the
celebrities vie one with the other.
Wherever there Is a place of honor,
there It Is insisted upon that she take
her stand. Great generals bow down
before her, and the men In the long
tines of march cheer her lustily os she
passes, grave, serene and dignified In
Itersunlform of gray, tho walking skirt,
the plain coat with Us brass buttons
und tho campaign hat which with her
close cut, crisp curls make her very
like her veteran brothers.
In addition to her badges, Miss Hall
wears several rings valuable from their
associations as well as intrinsically.
Each one. tells the story of some dear
one lpved and lost—one Is made from
tho gold from an Idolized brother's
watch, another a ring bequeathed to
her almost from the battlefield, and
still another more sacred still. Time
the great healer hue salved over many
battle wounds, but us Miss Hall fingers
her rings and tells of their associa
tions, one can but think that "forgot
ten things stumble back strangely.'
That Miss llnll will be one of > the
ost Important personages at the re
union which will take place in June
In Richmond Is already a foregone con
clusion and that she wilt be shown
every attention that waa accorded one
of her unique position will doubtless
be done. Auguslans take much pride
In the knowledge that she Is os staunch
and true an Augustan ns she Is a Con
federate.—Augusta Herald.

MOTHERS’ CONGRESS PAYS
TRIBUTE TO MRS. HEAkST
Los Angeles, Cal., May 14.—At, the
tenth anniversary session of the Con
gress of Mothers held here last night,
the loving, helpful and far-reaching In
fluence of tllo organization was review
ed by many spenkers and nearly every
one referred to the Inspiration and
Impetus which had been given to the
national movement by Us two founders,
Mrs. Theodore‘W. Blerney, of Mary
land, who "had the dream," and Mrs.
Phoebe A. Hearst, who made tho dream
possible..
"Through Mrs.. Hearst," said Mrs.
Edwin C.. Grice, of Philadelphia, the
corresponding secretary and one of the
eloquent speakers of the congress, "It
was possible for us to carry out this
great thought anil establish a continent
wide bond of motherhood for the bet
terment of our country.”
It remained for Mrs. John A. Logan
to bring a' message which she said
means much' for the’advancement of
the worlf.
"I am Informed,” she said, "that Mrs.
Hearst will nail for home on the 29th of
this month, and I am also assured that
when she returns she will once more
take up the work of a National Con
gress of Mothers and assume the posi
tion which she formerly occupied as Its
guardian angel.
"The work which Mrs. Hearst has
done for the mothers of this country
through the National' Congress of Moth
ers, scarcely can be appreciated. She is
not only the possessor of wealth' but s
woman of wonderful character and
goodness. Her heart and means havs
been devoted unstintedly to numerous
great works of charity, reform, educa
tion and her life having been devoted
with a pure and high purpose to all
that Is noble and helpful."
