Annual Celebration at University of, North Carolina Featured by He torn of Ci , er Plate Cbraer Htone A. U. Andrews, of Raleigh va Master of Ceremonies. Correspondence of The Gazette. . . CHAPEL HILL, Oct. -1 .-The re turn Thursday to the University of North Carolina 'of a copper plate which was on the cornerstone of tne Old East Building when It was laid on October 12, 17S 3 featured tne celebration of University Day here. The presentation was made by A. B. Andrews, of 'Raleigh, grand master of the Masonle order of this State. ;The plate waa believed 'to ' have been remoyed from the University daring reconstruction days,' Immedi ately following the civil war. V; was discovered several weeks ago In a pile of junk - In the foundry . at Clark sville, Tenn., by T. B Foust, owner of the foundry; and a mem ber of the class of 1903 of the Uni versity. Mr, Foust contemplated re turning the plate directly to Presi dent Graham, but later - decided to return It through Mr. Andrews as more appropriate to the occasion. The inscription on the plate states that , William - Richardson v Davie, grand master of the Masonle order in North Carolina and trustee and commissioner of the University, as sisted, by the other commissioners, "on the 12th day of October, In the year of Masonry, 17 A3, and the 18tn year of American Independence, laid the cornerstone of this edifice." f William Richardson Davie,: at dif ferent times was United States Com missioner to France, a United States senator, and Governor of North Car olina. -3V.-.,- r- Ci Lee's Flag and Papers. - - J Richmond News-Leader. -The patriotic act of John F. Mayer in placing General Lee's headquar ters flag in Its" natural resting place, the Confederate museum, ' suggests that other relics of the great, com mander must still be in the country, elsewhere than In the hands of the Lee family and of the museum au thorities, 'ji , -. .... y One of the most modest men of all times. General Lee was likewise one of the most careful of his official re1 cords. In addition to preserving the -correspondence of his headquarters, he regularly wrote the reports of his campaigns and forwarded them to the war department. . These reports Were something more than separate narratives of unconnected battles. They were designed and written to form a complete story and were so arranged that by the simple deletion of the opening paragraphs of all the reports forwarded after the : Seven Days' Fight, they could be shaped in to a history of the Army of Northern Virginia .from Mechanlcsvllle to Spotsylvania Courthouse. It was General Lee's desire that this should be done, In order that the achieve ments of his army might be recorded for posterity. Several times he wrote the war department regarding the publication of all his reports In one volume, but never, so far as we know, with success.. It would be a splendid public service even now K one of our patriotic societies wouio carry out the wishes of our Southern hero and would publish, precisely as he wished. them, the reports of the operations of his army from June l 1862, to December 3. 1863. No nar rative of the war 1b more concise, lu cid or accurate.

Lame when you awaken, pains pierce you when you bend or lift. It's hard to work or to rest. Backache often indicates bad kidneys. Gastonia people recom mend Doan's Kidney Pills. Read this case: Mrs. R. F. Gardner, 117 S. High land St., Gastonia, says: "I suffered a grea( deal from a weak and lame back and 1 could hardly get around. I, was on my feet a great deal and backache and sharp twinges darted through my kidneys. 1 was often so bad I couldn't move. Doan's Kid ney Pills were recommended to me by one of the family and I got a box. A few doses made my back feel bet ter and after taking one box, I didn't have any trouble from my back or kidneys." Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask, for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mrs. Gardner had. Foster-Mil-burn Co., Props., Buffalo, N.Y. Ad.

Cava m vanla campaign, General Lee's time was-so completely, occupied tbat h apparently did not write an extended report of that or any of his subse quent campaigns. At least the edi tors of the Official Records were nev er able to locate such reports. If they were prepared. Our only knowledge of Lee's views of operations during the last 11 months-Is derived from brief daily dispatches and from occa sional reports, such as his letters to Mr. Davis after the surrender. ' i We are not Inclined, however, al together to despair of filling in these gaps. As Mr. Mayer pointed out rn his letter to Miss Harrison regarding the headquarters flag, many of Gen eral Lee's papers had been sent -'to 1 Richmond before the evacuation and were carried South with the other! archives. , Most of them, we' know, were recovered by the Federals and were taken, to Washington . where they how' repose In the war depart ment. ' But were these all? If Mr Mayer - were able to save the flag, might not others have been able to save some of his unpublished manu scripts? " i;,.;' Then there were the papers which Colonels Marshall and Taylor ' car ried with them on the retreat from Petersburg to Appomattox. What has become of all these? We have evidence tbat the Confederate head quarters' baggage had to be abandon doned. during the retreat and from this we may well reason that It fell into the hands of the Federals. If this be the case, those familiar wjtD the habits of soldiers may well doubt whether all that waB seized " ever reached the Federal war department. It is altogether possible that some where in the North may be Lee pa pers of the utmost Importance. Tne same Is perhaps true of some of General Lee's personal . relics. When he was forced to abandon his headquarters's wagon, Lee and tne members of his staff took their best uniforms and left the others.: .This was explained during the Interview at McLean's house and accounts, ; rn some measure, for the superior ap pearance of . the Confederate- officers on that memorabje , occasion... But what became of the uniforms and accoutrements left behind on fire road? Were they preserved? We have never heard. . The liberality ot the -Lee family and . the love oof his soldiers ' have vested In the Southern people . most of the relics of this Incomparable man. Only his sword remains and rightfully remains In the posses sion of his family. Virtually all the rest, except his Intimate domestic letters, Is where It may be seen by the world. But everything connect ed with him, It matters not how tri vially, has a well nigh sacred Inter est. Every autograph, every relic. every paper, every anecdote should be cherished. For when another 50 years shall have drowned the last passion that survived the war, Lee will stand we say It unhesitatingly where only Washington will reacn even to his shoulder In the hall of American fame.
