BEAUVIOR, THE OLD DAVI8 HOME.
In we, on this Eitate in Lower Mississippi, on the Uulf of Mexico, that
Mrs. Davit livad until her husband died.
Continued from Pegs One.)
Mlaa, tha daughter of William Burr
and Margaret Howell. She was edu
cated at a boarding school In Philadel
phia and by private teachers at home.
Her marriage to Jefferson Davis, then
resident of Warren County, Mlsa.
took place February 25, 1845.
She wae Mr. Davla' second wife, his
first having been Miss Sarah Knox
Taylor, daughter of Zachary Taylor.
Jefferson Davis was elected to con
grese In November of the same year,
but realgned the following June to go
to the Mexican war, from which be
returned severely wounded. The coQ-
ple spent the most of their time
Washington from .1847 to 1881, during
which time Mr. Davie served two
terme as United States senator and
one as secretary of war. During the
four years Mr. Davla was president of
the Confederacy, Mrs. Davis lived In
Richmond.
Parted By War’* Fortunes.
The anxious mistress for four long
years of the chief home In a be
leaguered capital, the fall of Richmond
parted her from her husband, whom
she was to meet again In her wander
ings through the Southern forests, only
to be parted from him after a few
days, he to be sent to prison and she
to shift for herself and her children
as beet she could, ngreebly to the llml
lations set upon her every movement
by the conquering troops.
During the first year of Mr. Davis'
Imprisonment his wife was not per
mitted to be with him, but was per
mitted to remain with him during the
second year at Fortress Monroe.
When this period of trouble was over
the couple went to England, where
they remained several years. Return
ing to this country, they took up their
residence at Memphis, where they con
tinued to live until 1878, when they re
moved to Beauvoir Station, Miss.,
which place Mrs. Davis continued ever
afterward to call her home. <
Wae Huiband’e Amanuensis.
Mrs. Davis acted as her husband'*
amanuensis when he wrote his "Decline
and Fall of the Confederate Govern
ment." After her husband.'* death,
which occurred In 1889, Mrs. Davis
wrote numerous criticisms and articles
for newspapers and magaxlnes.
She continued for eome years
Beauvoir, but falling health and the
remoteness of the place from medical
specialists forced her finally to give up
the old home, living Mr a ehort time
In Atlanta, Ga, but subsequently mov
ing to New York city.
Mr*. Davie, for reasons of health,
lived In the North most of the time af
ter the death of her husband. Her
winters were passed In New York and
her summers In New England or In
western New York state, but she per
mitted no one to assume that her
heart was not still In the Southland,
althoush many of her strongest per.
sonal friendship* were with Nr
I-ess than one .

discreet In her expression of opinion.
Of her six children, but one. sur

now Mrs. I. A. Hayes, the wife of a
banker of Colorado Springs, Colo.
Jefferson Davis, Jr., who died several
years ago, greatly resembled hie father.
HI* death was followed by that of
Mies Winnie Davla.
Name of Davla Survives.
A bushel basket would hardly hold
the telegram* of condolence received by
Mrs. Davla Immediately after the death
of Mias Winnie Davla, aa the "Daugh
ter of the Confederacy," had become
known to the public. These came from
Confederate statesmen, ripe In years,
of whom but a handful are left: from
old eoldlera who followed the Btara anil
Bara on many a bloody field; from the
sons and even grandsons of Confeder
ate veterans: from surviving represen
tatives of the old aristocratic element
of Southern society; from school chil
dren. and quite n number of these mes
sages were sent by old-time colored
folk, once In slavery, but having lively
and pleasant memories of the kindly
personal Influence of Jefferson Davis
and hi* wife.
The name of Jefferson Davla survives
In hla grandson, the eon of Mrs. Hayes,
of Colorado Springs. In order that the
name of her father might be perpet
uated tn her family. Mrs. Hayes se
cured legislative sanction to the change
of her eon's name from Jeffersoix Davla
Kaye* to Jefferson Davis. This was
don* with the consent of the son. and
In accordance with the wish, generally
expressed, by member* of the Davla
family and others who were greatly at-
tached to the late leader of the Con
federacy.
Wouldn’t 8*11 to Syndicate.
For sentimental reasons Mrs. Davla
refused 180,000 for her beautiful Beau
voir home from a Northern syndicate,
and for sentimental reasons sold It Mr
$10,000, with tha understanding that It
be used for a home for the old Con
federate veterans
Mrs. Davla was consulted, and not
withstanding the fact that 845,000
worth of buildings are on the prop
erty, she consented to sell It for 110,000,
on the proviso that the eatate should
be considered aa a memorial of her late
husband and, retained forever In hla
memory.
In an Interview last year Mrs. Davis
said:
"All of my historical papers have
been given to the Historical Society tn
New Orleans, so that the memolra of
Mr. Duvls which I have written are

read an order from President Rooae
velt several days ago to the battalion
of the Twenty.fifth regiment Infantry
(colored), stating that the battalion
must tell the names of the men In the
recent Brownsville, Texas, disturbances
or be dishonorably discharged. The
men were given until 8 o'clock a. nt. to

tended a day, but It Is believed nothing

INTERESTING CONTEST
Heavy Cost of Unpaid Postage.
One of the moat Curious contest
ever before the public was conducts
by many thousand persons under the
offer of the Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., of
Battle Creek, Mich., for prises of 31
boxes of gold and 300 greenbacks to
those making the moat words out of
the tetters Y-I-O-Orape-Nuts.
The contest was started In Febru
ary, 1808. and U was arranged to have
the prises awarded on April 30, 1808:
When the public announcement ap
peared many persona began to form
the words from thtae letters, sometimes
the whole family being occupied even-
Ingu, a combination of amusement and
education.
After a while the lists began to coma
In to the Postum office and before long
the volume grew until It required wag
on a to carry the mall. Many of the
contestants were thoughtless enough
to send their Beta with Insufficient
poatage and for a period It cost .the
company from twenty-five to fifty-eight
and sixty dollars a day to pay the un
paid postage.
Young ladles, generally those who
had graduated from the high school,
were employed to examine these Hats
and count the correct words. Web
ster's Dictionary was the standard and
each list wa* very carefully corrected
except those which fell below 8,000, for
It soon became clear that nothing be
low that could win. Rome of the lists
required the work of a young lady for
a solid week on each Individual list.
The work wa* done very carefully nnd
accurately, but the company had no
Idea, at the time the offer was made,
that the people would respond so gen
erally anil they were compelled to fill
ever)- available space In the offices with
these young lady examiners, and not
withstanding they worked steadily. It
wae Impossible to complete the exami
nation until September 29. over six
months after the prlxea should have
been awarded.
This delay caused a great many In
quiries and naturally created some dis
satisfaction. It hns been thought best
tq make this report tn practically all of
the newspapers In the United States
and many of the magaxlnes In order
tn make clear to the people the condi
tions of the contest.
Many Bats contained enormous num
ber* of word*, which, under the rules,
had to be eliminated. "Pegger" would
count, “Peggers" would not. Home lists
contained over 60,000 word*, the great
majority of which were cut out. The
largest llsta were checked over two,
and In some cases, three times to In
sure accuracy.
The 8100 gold prise was won by L.
D. Reese, 1237 Fifteenth street, Den
ver, Colo., with 8841 correct word*.
The highest $10 gold prise went to S.
K. Fraser, Lincoln, P., with 8821
correct words.
complete list of the 331 winners
with their home addresses will be sent
to any conteatant enquiring on a postal
card.
Be sure and give name and address
clearly.
Thle contest has cost the company
many thousand dollars, and probably
haa not been a profitable advertise
ment, nevertheless perhaps some who
had never before tried Grape Nuts food
have been Interested In the contest, and
from trial of the food have been shown
Its wonderful rebuilding powers.
It teaches In a practical manner that
scientifically gathered food elements
can be selected from the field grains,
which nature will use for rebuilding
the nerve centers and brain In a way
that Is unmistakable to users of Grape-
Nuts.

PROFESSOR Hill HEADS
SHORTHAND DEPARTMENT
BAGWELL DUSINESS COLLEG
Unprecedented Growth of Business Makes It Necessary
To Enlarge Faculty at Popular Institution.
Professor C. O. HIM. of Indlannpolls,
Ind., ha* Just arrived In the city to
take charge of the shorthand depart
ment of Bagwell's Business College
and School of Shorthand.
Professor Hill hns had a wide ex
perience as a literary and commercial
teacher, having taught In some of the
leading business colleges of the United
States. He Is an expert accountant,
penman, shorthand writer nnd teacher.
He ts n graduate of the Trt-Statc Nor
ma! College. In,liana, and the n >ted
Bliss Business College, of Columbus.
Ohio, from which school Jte holds the
degree of bachelor of commercial
science.
Mr. Hill was for some time principal
of the shorthand department of the
Bliss Business College, which Is the
leadlnr commercial school of the North,
and Is admitted to be the most ex
pensively equipped business coilego In
the United States. During the past two
years he has had charge of the short
hand department of the Central Busi
ness College, Indianapolis, Ind.
Mr. HIM Is master of the art of In
structing to a remarkable degree. .He
Is able to arouse the keenest Interest
and enthusiasm In hie pupils. He get*
reaulta, and gets them quickly.
Chertier vs. Graham.
Mr. Hill taught Pitman shorthand
for a number of years. Later he stud
ied Chartler shorthand under the au
thor at tho time It was Introduced In
the Bliss College.
In speaking of the relative merits
of Chartler and Pitman shorthand, Mr.
HIM rays:
Both the Bllas and the Central Bus
iness Colleges subjected the Chartler
system to a thorough teat befbre adopt
ing It and discarding the Pitman sys
tem. The results obtained with the
Chartler system In these Institutions
have fully demonstrated Its great ad
vantages over the old and more com
plicated systems of shorthand. While
teaching the Pitman system the aver
age time required to turn out a com
petent stenographer was about six
months. With the Chartler system the
great majority of pupils are able to
hold responsible positions In less than
three months, while a large percent be
come competent stenographers In six
to eight weeks.
"Not only can the system be learned
In much leas time, owing to Its great
simplicity, but It has been found to
possess much greater speed power than
any of the old system*. Many Char
tler students who have taken the sys
tem In the last two years are now do
ing very successful court Reporting.
•i consider that Mr. Chartler has
rendered a great service to the com
mercial world and especially to those
who with to prepare for the profession
of shorthand.
Only the Bsst Worth While.
Bagwell's Business College Is to be
congratulated upon securing the ser
vices of Mr, HIM. This addition to the
faculty Is only another evidence of the
enterprise of the president of the
school and of his determination to place
at the service of his patrons the very
best talent and equipment that can be
secured. It will be remembered that
only a few weeks agd. Mr. B. J. Fer
guson. for the past two years professor
of business science at the North Geor
gia Agricultural College, was employed
to take charge of the business depart
ment of this Institution.
PROFESSOR C. O. HILL,
Formerly of Central Business Col
lege, Indianapolis, Ind., who it
now head of Shorthand
Department Bagwell’s
Business College. I
The bane of business colleges In the
South has been cheap and Incompetent
teachers. The motto of Bagwell's Bus
iness College Is: "ONLY THE BEST
18 WORTH WHILE."
Although the school has been In op
eration only a few month*. It ha* en
rolled something more than one hun
dred ,pupils, a number of (thorn have
completed their courses In from six to
eight weeks, and arc now holding re
sponsible and lucrative positions.
The school will furnish the names
and addresses of these students to any
one who may be Interested.
The remarkable growth of this school
la due to the fact that It does not de
pend for its success upon extravagant
claims and ability tn advertise, but
upon the Intrinsic worth and merit of
the work It Is able to do.
The object of the school Is to give a
business training that fits for business
In the shortest possible time and at
the least expense.
All who wish to take a business
course are cordially Invited to visit the
school nnd learn what It can do for
them. •
198 Peachtree street, Atlanta, Ga.
REFUSED A GOLD PIECE;
SUIT BROUGHT FOR $3,000
Every phase of ejectment from
street cars seems of late to have be
come the fact behind a suit against the
Georgia Railway and Electric Com
pany.
The genus In which the refusal of
the conductor to accept a transfer, of
which the time limit had expired,
though the complainant claims to have
caught the first car possible, terms the
casus belli, has become almost com
mon.
But a batch on a new subject was
filed Wednesday. Three men, Robert
and J. M. Burge and Ed B. Tlckell,
brought suit for 81,000 each because,
they say, the conductor refused to ac
cept a 85 gold piece when they wished
to pay their fare. In their claims for
vindictive damages they allege that It
happened something like this: 1
The three boarded a car at the cor
ner of Boulevard and, Decatur streets.
bound for the center of the city, »n
September 22. Tho smallest money In
the crowd was a flve-dollar gold piece.
In the pocket of Robert Burge. This
he offered In payment of the fare for
the three, hut the conductor abused
them and put them off the car because
they had no smaller piece of money.
Also a little different from other
transfer squabbles Is the case of W.
A. Hunter, who wants 15,040 from the
same source because, he says, the con
ductor on an Orme street car refused
to accept a transfer from the Forrest
avenue car, and. besides putting him
off the car, struck hint and came after
him with n drawn pistol, threatening
to "shoot his heart out." He says the
conductor claimed that the transfer
was presented at the wrong place,
whereas In reality he had got on the
car at the regular place for the trans
fer, at Peachtree nnd Forsyth streets.
He asks for damages on account of
the pnln from the conductor's blow
and the scare caused by the pistol.
