The barefoot boy of some twenty-
five years ago recalls the picnic in the
Meisenheimer Grove, when the Sun
day Schools of Concord gathered all
the children and spent the day in the
woods. Every old tree bore its swing,
and the 'woods, filled with happy
youngster and theirchaperones woods
that are now groves to home yards
and all the way ia lined with homes,
and far beyond buildings have sprung
up where hedgrows and fense corners
encumbered the earth.
Gibson mill is now "in town," the
very center of one of the most hust
ling, industrious centers of Concord.
Nice homes, good people and many
stores are added where the picnics were
formerly pulled off.
The Gibson is a modern and one of
the prettiest mills in the Souih. It is
making a line of goods ihat but few
undertake. Its work is distinct and
sets the pace for Southern manufac
turers. Its prints, shirtings and blan
kets have made it famous. The Gib
son cotton blanket Is a beauty and a
comfort. All of these things are facts
known to all of Concord and the peo
ple abroad in close touch with the
marketings of cotton products
Just now there is a considerable im
provement going on at the Gibson.
The new weave-shed, 174 feet square,
is nearing completion, a new office
building is being built, and a home for
the suDerintendent is beginning. The
new weave-shed is a moder machinery
home, attractive, with splendid light
and ventilation.
The office rooms are large and con
venient. while the new super" home
will be a modern house, large and
roomy, with all modern and conve
nient appointments.
Concord people interested in Con
cord s live, progressive enterprises,
crowning every hill and reaching out
of the valleys everywhere, should know
and appreciate the Gibson, a mill in
which to pride. -

two cousins of the latePresident Jef
ferson Davis of the Southern Confed
eracy for feminine roles in "The
Clansman". They will appear with
the Southern company during its forty
weeks tour from the Coast to the

The cousins of President Davis are
both clever actresses- One of them,
Miss Maude Durand, is already known
to "Clansman" playgoers through her
work as Eve last season. Her sister,
Miss Edna Davis, is a new recruit.
The mother of the Davis girls was
Mrs Elizabeth Hyatt Davis, the sec
ond cousin of the Confederate Presi
dent. She belonged to the branch of
the family which went Nerth and
settled ia Indiana.
T he girls are fervent aumiiers ot
the fame and achievements of the
great Southern leader. It has been
their custom to visit Mrs Jefferson

guests at her house. On the last tour

from Southerners of note who were
aware of her connection with the Da

ish ships captured by Admiral Dewey
i.i Manila Bay, May 1, 1898, were
sold by the navy department today for
$103. These ships were advertised
at several Asiatic ports, the total cost
of advertising being $28 and the navy
department, is well satisfied that the
bids were sufficient to cover the ex
pense of advertising.
The three ships are the Albay, Ma
nileno and Mindanao. They have
been stripped of everything movable
and are simply old hulks practically
useless for any purpose of the navy.
