MUCH IMPRESSED WITH LOUISVILLE

Imk Pp Mnh a' Vmrfm lffajartty.
I have long considered Louiarllla ik
Queen City of the aoutk, not oaly in the
magnitude of her commerce Vat In the
character of her popolatkm. There are
more hhrh-toned. ml tared people la
proportion to population than any
other city, more colleges, literary and
religious, more notable minis ten, law
yers and editors and more intense inde
pendent southern feelinf . X was called
there to deliver an address in behalf of
the ex-confederate soldiers, . not to re
vive any sectional feeling or any of the
bitterness of the war, but to raise mon
ey for the dependent confederate soldiers,-to
keep them from want and to
burr them decently when they die.
This humane and patriotic purpose com'
mends itself to all people in Louisville,
and I had before me many northern
people and federal soldiers who ffeve
willingly to the cause. I was surprised
at the number of confederate veterans
who still live, for Anno Domini is work
in? on them everywhere, thinning
their ranks. Unpensinoned soldiers do
not live forever nor do they increase in
numbers as the years roll on.
Time cuts down all,
- Both great ud smalL
Except the pensioned soldier.
And this reminds me of a hurried visit
to Ohio the other day where MeKinley
had almost a walk-over in the late elec
tion. In the town where I stopped for
a day I learned that most of the demo
crats voted for MeKinley because Hoke
Smith was believed to be opposed to
federal pensions, or at least was exhib
iting a very inquiring mind about
them. This pension business is
the the vital question up north. It is
their salvation, and yon might just as
well make war against a man's religion
a upon the soldier's right to a pension.
Wore pensions and bigger ones is the de
mand, for if the soldier or his widow or his
children get it the outsiders get a whack
at it, and it soon becomes distributed in
the community. It averages over $100,000
to each county in Ohio and is paid, out
twice a vear. Just think of that sum
coming into a Georgia county every
year world without end and coming for
nothing. What a glorious patrimony it
would be! Then would we sing, "Hard
Times Come Agin No More." How it
would help out . a short wheat crop or
half a cotton crop! How it would help
us to pay the preacher and save the
heathen and buy the girls some clothes!
No wonder those folks up north hug to
the pension laws, whether they are
right or not right. Now, every just
man knows, of course, that our soldiers
have as much right to pensions
theirs, and it will be so set down in
history, but the tide is against us, for
whom the Lord loveth He chaste netn.
And so we have to do the best we can.
These good people in Louisville have
got an assoiation that makes provision
for them, and while they can't pension
them, they get them something to do.
Captain Leathers is the leading spirit
of this good work and he has such men
as General Basil Duke aad General
Taylor and Major Davis and Captain
E as ton and Dr. Broadus and Dr. Hemp
hill to help him. All the best people
encourage them.
One day a dilapidated man on
crutches called on Captain Leathers and
said:
"Capen, I heard that you were look
ing after the old vets of the confed
eracy, and I thought I would call and
tell you that I am one of them and
would like to have a good square meal
once more, it s aoout omner ume ana
I haven't had anything to eat today."
He had a good honest suffering face.
but the captain dident believe him.
"Where were you wounded? said he.
"At the battle of the wilderness, on
the 10th of May, 1W4," said the man.
"What is your name?" said the cap
tain. - J
"William W. Beasley," said he.
. The captain was .very busy, and as
he handed the old vet a dollar, said:
"Now go and get some thing to eat;
then go to a barber's and get cleaned
up, and come back here at S o'elock. I
want to talk to you."
. Precisely at 3 o'elock Beazeley hob
bled in, leaned his crutches against the
wall, and sat down. He was much im
proved. "Now, Mr. Beazeley," said the cap
tain, "I want to cross-examine yon, for
we have no money to waste on Im pos
ters. -Where do you live, and what
have you been doing, and what regi
ment did vou serve in ? Tell me all
about yourself." . "
Beazeley smiled and said, "That Is all
right, captain. I'm not : afraid nor
ashamed to give you my history. I was
. nrivate in Company B, Fourth Ala
bama. I lived in Selma. I am a prin
ter bv trade, aad have been tramping
WILSON,
around hunting worn, and thought I
might perhaps get work on the Courier
Journal, but they said I was a back
number, which is a fact, and now I am
afloat without a dollar or a friend. My
wound has never got well, and I'll show
it to you if you want to see it."
i.
"No, no," said the captain, "who was
your oolonel ?"
"We had seven or eight," said Beaze
ley, "but the last one was Colonel
Scruggs,- He is living down here in
Huntsville. He knows me. You can
write to him and. he'll tell you that I
am no imposter.
Captain Leathers did not wait for
credentials, for the man's face was cre
dential enough. He bought him some
decent clothes and set him up a little
stand by the bank with a few dollurs'
worth of cigars and newspapers and
little tricks and told him "to sell them.
-t
Trade with that man," said he to his
acquaintances who came into the bank
where the captain is cashier. "Trade
with that old veteran, he was wounded
at the Wilderness.' And they do trade
with him. He has paid back the money
and is now making about twelve dollars
a week and is happy. I talked to him,
and found he once worked in Cedar-
town, and knew all my old-time friends !
down there and many in Rome.
I
Captain Leathers afterwards met j
Colonel Scruggs in Florence, Ala., and i
the colonel said, "Yes, I knew Hill
Beazeley At the battle of the Wilder
ness, on the 10th of May, 1834, my color :
bearer- was shot down, and the boys 1
were about to - waver, for -they were j
falling right and -left under an awful
fire, but Beazeley rushed forward and
picked up the colors and, waving1 them
over his head, cried out, "Come on,
boys," and they rallied on him and fol
lowed him to victory. That's the kind
of man Bill Beazeley is. But he was
shot in the hip in that same charge and
I dont know whether he is living now
or not. But why do you ask ?"
The captain told him and he was
much gratified.
- Every survivor of the Ehth Georgia
who was in the first battle of Manassas
will feel interested in this, for the
Fourth Alabama fought right beside
them in the pine thickets, and scores of
both regiments foremost fighting, fell
among those pines. Bill Beazeley was
there, and he kept on being in the front
until disabled in the Wilderness.
How many of-such heroes Captain
Leathers has in charge I know not, hut
number of the old veterans met at
Captain George Norton's one night, and
those walls heard nfany a yarn. Cap
tain Norton came from Rome to Louis
ville as soon as the war was over, and
soon found friends and kept them, lie
has made a good name and a slow for
tune and uses both with becoming dig
nity. A slow made fortune will stick
to a man, but a big pile of money will
make a fool of anybody on short ac
quaintance. Captain .Norton has a numorous fam
ily a lovely wife and children and
everything around and about is so af
fectionate and home-like that I am ob
liged to speak of it, for - it is a model
family. I say "home-like" because one
day the captain hired an old-fashioned
darkey to sod the front yard with -blue
grass. The third day he found that the
old darkey had left the front and was
putting down some sod in the back
yard.
"Uncle Jake," said he, "what m the
world are you doing around here ? I
never told you to sod the back yard.
Now, do you just stop it. There is not
enough sod for both."
Old Jake leaned on his hoe and said:
"Mistis sont me round here; she say 1
must sod dis, and I sod it."
Well, that's all right," said the cap
tain; "go on and sod it, but don't dig up
any more ground. Just sod that you've
already got dug up until I get some
more grass."
After he left the old man talked to
himself. "Mistis say sod all round
here. Master come along and say q uit.
What must de ole nigger do? Mistis
mighty purty and steps round like a
gaL' I hain't been here but two days.
but dat s long enuf to find out dat she's
bossln dis house. I is gwine to keep
on soddin' round here until mistis stops
me, dat's what I is gwine to do." The
cook heard him and told the captain,
and the captain told me.
' It is so home-like that I enjoyed it.
Politics seems to have subsided some
what. I dident circulate "much up ii
.Ohio. We have a boy living up there ir.
charge of some waterworks, and I kept
very secluded. I dident care a eenl
about McKinley's 90,000 majority, but 1
did not care about the old dead line
coming to life again. Not a norther r
state is now democratic, and not t
southern one is republican. That ok
historic line of Mason and Dixon is slil
the line of discord. .The fact is, if moit
northern people don't move down here,
and more southern people move ur
there, we had just as well establish the
line -for good and be two nations. W
used to fuss about runaway niggers,
but that is all settled, and we will give
them yankees just as many nigger as
they want. Lord help us all. I wist
the niggers did love them well enougl
to divide. We'll keep the old ones anc
let our northern brethren have the new
set. Then maybe we would all have
peace. .

showed any disposition to object and '
he was "'easily brought over. Man

We will unite in supporting him and

the privilege Of. patting our own

Alabama "which we can carry and we
will elect our own oriicers there over

' Lew Persons, a leading republican,
when asked' what, the republicans had

of us were up there because we want

of us took any part whatever in the
meeting. Most of us were friends of

us. That is about all there is to it."
- Captain Col b said the meeting was
without friction whatever and was en

the latter realized they could not elect
state off cers of their party, and pre

Down.
Mount Pissox, Ala., November 16.
Soe Smith, aged twenty-four, and his
father were shot, to death by Sheriff
John Hewitt here this afternoon.
Deputy Hewitt was shot through the
head, and is believed to be fatally
hurt. The trouble originated over an
arrest. Dr. Green sold a mill to the
Smiths; they paid no cash. The con
tract was that the Smiths should al
low Green's old Miller, Hulfstader, to
run the mill until the purchase money
was paid. - Sometime since, the Smiths
tired Hulfstader and closed down the
mill. Green demanded -possession.
The Smiths refused, and Green swore
out warrants, " charging the Smiths
with trespassing-after warning.
, This afternoon Hewitt, with Tom
Massey, a citizen of Mount Pinson,
went to arrest - the Smiths. They
were found at the mill, but refused to
surrender, and showed fight. One of
them fired on the. officers, and a f usi
lade ensued. Both Smiths were shot

make his millions, and enjoy life.
