El Paso, Texas. March 30 —The dove of peace may be hovering over the bor der. but the sale of ammunition and arms to the revolutionists continues as briskly as wlrin the insurgents were encamped across from El Paso. The sales are not made in quanti- E ties, but the retail trade in rifles and ammunition at the local hardware and arms stores continues active, the dealers say. Whether one of the Maderos is coming here to talk peace is not cer tain. Gonzalas Garza, provisional secretary of state, declares that Fran cisco I Madero, Sr., has nothing to do with the war, and that his coining here would not necessarily mean a peace conference. Francisco I Ma dero and the men in the field are the only persons who can settle the war. he said. Whether he will come here is not known, but some of his staff officers have been dropping in. giving color to reports that Madero himself soon will arrive. This is considered im probable unless by agreement with the United States, for a warrant is out in El Paso for his arrest on a charge of inciting a revolution against a friendly nation. > e L‘lJa»v.,'.di4 Adamname ajiyhe ani- [ PTbo <Ve are tid»q I'oKm'iv. hr did. “That’s one on you paw. the orni thorrynchus hadn’t been discovered then. ’ ’ —Chicago Tribune.

DALTON, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, MARCH 31, 1911. —— “Your’e Another” Says Major Joseph Bogle Major Joseph Bogle, author of “Some Recollections of the Civil War,” has received a letter from Rev. Dt. W. H. Darnell, to whom he sent a copy of his work, which speaks for itself. Dr. Darnell's letter is as follows: “Centre. Ala., March 30. 1911. Hon. Joseph Bogle, “Dear Joe:—The pamphlet, ‘Some Recollections of the Civil War,’ came last week just as 1 was leaving for an appointment with a little flock in Chattooga county. An old comrade’s best thanks for your kindness. 1 have written on the ‘lntroductory’ page the following (which I send to you) : “ ‘To Joseph Bogle, Confederate Veteran, author of this pamphlet. After my wife’s death, for my daugh ter Mary, wife of J. L. Savage. “ ‘He heard the Southland's call And ventured life and all, In war’s uncertain fate; A true man’s faithful heart, That sought a true man’s part, For home and church and state. GOVERNMENT WILL I INVITE PROPOSALS an<l small tracts or fan<T in the Appa lachian and White mountain regions will be considered for purchase by the United States to be turned into watersheds. Lands held up to ob tain exhorbant prices it is stated, will not be considered. In describing the class of lands wanted, the circular says that those containing timber, the government will purchase both the land and the timber, or with timber reserved to the owner, cut over or culled lands, brush or burned lands not bearing merchantable timber and abandoned farm lands and also mineral lands, in which the owner may reserve the right to remove the deposits. Good agricultural land however, will not be considered. Areas within which proposals will be invited have been divided as fol lows. White Mountain area, New Hamp shire and Maine; Youghlogheny area. Maryland; Patomic area, Virginia and West Virginia; Monongahela area, West Virginia; Massanutten mountain and Natural Bridge areas, Virginia; White Top area, Tennessee and Virginia; Yadkin and Mount Mitchell areas, North Carolina; Smo ky mountain and Nantahala areas, North Carolina and Tennessee; Pis gah area, North Carolina, and Savan nah area, Georgia and South Carolina. Waycross Ga., March 31 —The board of trade of Waycross has instituted a “post card day’’ for Georgia, and is asking the co-operation of every organization in the state, with the view of getting Georgia views in as many homes of prospective homeseek ers as possible. The idea advanced by the Waycross organization is for every commercial organization in Georgia to agree to send out postals of their respective sections on May 5. The co-operation of industrial de partments of railroads has been so licited. It has been estimated that a state working together in this man ner can send in one day at least a million post cards, covering every state in the union. Through all that cloudy day, In duty’s faithful way, The Soutldand’s son and friend; With soul that faltered not, He served in every lot, A true man to the end. Old age is on him now, The peacefid, silvered brow, And in the long way trod; Bet I -r than royal crown, The "ood man's true renown. Still serving man and God. “ *U*rch 30, 1911. W. 11. Darnell.’ “Blessings on you and yours; Grace mercy and peace. “Your friend and comrade, “W. H. DARNELL.” To this letter Major Bogle sent the following reply today: “Rev. W. H. Darnell: “My dear Sir and Bro.: —Words fail mtf to express my apreciation of the beautiful sentiments expressed in your letter. I think they apply much more to yourself, than to me. so I can only say as boys say to each other.* You ’re another. ’ With kindest regards and best wishes, Your old time comrade, “JOS.

It will not be necessary for me to be there right away anyhow, as it will be two or three weeks before the congress is organized and gets down to busi ness. ’ ’ That Senator Terrell will be in proper condition, physically, to make his race for election to the United States senate before the legislature in June, and that his recent attack of illness will not interfere with his candidacy at all, is the opinion of Benjamin M. Blackburn, execuive sec retary of Governor Brown and one of the senator’s closest personal and po litical friends. Items From the Odd. The United States gold dollar was first coined in 1848. Pianos were first manufactured in this country in 1803, at Boston, Mass. The Bank of the United States was established in Philadelphia in 1791. A metal holder for paint brushes by which they may be attached at any angle to the ends of poles to save painters having to use ladders, has been patented by an Illinoisian. A floating sanitariam for consump tives is planned in England, the idea being to divert the patients’ minds by change of scene, as it is moved from one place to another. By melting to gether an ounce each of white rosin and shellac and then adding an ounce of carbolic acid cry stals a cement that has great adhes ive qualities will be made. ASPHALT PAVING SDDN COMPLETE CONTRACTORS EXPECT TO COM- PLETE STREET PAVING WORK WITHIN TEN DAYS. With fair weather and no unavoid able accidents, the West Construction company expect to complete the street paving work in Dalton within the next ten days or two weeks. Tomor row will probably end the laying of the concrete work and the asphalt is being laid just as fast as the con crete work is allowe dto set suffici ently. The people are already realizing the great benefit derived from the lay ing of street paving, and when these dry and dusty days roll around, fol lowed by rainy, muddy conditions they will realize it more than ever.

THE SAME DAY IT HAPPENS 10 CENTS A WEEK BY CARRIER 10c PER WEEK BY CARRIER SUNDAY REST FOR CARRIERS IF NOT OPPOSED BY PATRONS OF POST OFFICE PETITION MAY BE CIRCULATED FOR CURTAILMENT OF CARRIERS’ WORK. A movement to give the carriers in the Dalton post office a full day’s rest on Sunday is being talked of and . should the people of Dalton show any , disposition to co-operate with the post office officials in the matter a peti tion will be circulated in order to get the sentiment of the patrons. I At present the carriers report for duty on Sunday and work from three to five hours. It is proposed that the delivery of mail through the window be still car ried on. but the time curtailed. The box mail would be put up as usual. The work that the carriers now do in sorting out the mail for the first Monday morning delivery would be eliminated and the same work done Monday morning, the carriers report ing. if necessary a half hour earlier, so that there would be no delay. Should the idea be put into effect, all box holders would secure their mail as usual on Sunday morning. In fact, the service, it is claimed, would in no way be impaired so far as the public is concerned, as every one would have the opportunity to get their letters. | Sunday closing and Sunday cur i (ailment of work in the post offices is I being taken tip all over UuiUd ... States just at present, more from a humanitarian standpoint than from any other. Atlanta, as well as other cities, is falling into line and it looks as though a majority of towns will soon give their post office employees as much rest as possible on the Sab j bath. BROKEN MIE DEEMS fRAFFIC OR W. 8 A. A broken car axle on a north bound freight delayed the trains on the W. & A. for a considerable time today.
