CONFEDERATS
SHARPSHOOTER.
Killed During Early's rtetreat l-rom
Washington.
A pathetic incident of Memorial day
will be the decoration of a single grave
on the historic farm of F. P. Blair, Sr.,
just beyond Fort Stevens.
This lonely grave is that of an unknown
Confederate sharpshooter, the
last man in gray to fall during Gen.
Jubal Early's advance upon Washington
by a portion of the Army of Northern
Virginia on July 10, 1S64.
General Early, by rapid marches,
seriously threatened the capital city
and reached a point confronting Fort
Stevens on the northern outskirts of
Washington. Maj. Gen. A. McD. McCook
confronted the hosts in gray.
His force consisted of Columbia Volunteers,
District of Columbia Volunteers.
Colonel Alexander; the Ninth regiment,
Veteran reserve corps, also
Captain Gibb's Ohio battery and Capt.
Bradbury's Maine battery, with a
force of government clerks who were
armed for the protection of the city of
Washington.
These two forces of blue and gray
confronted each other at first on the
Piney Branch, midway between Washington
and Fort Stevens.
Ewell's old corps encamped on the
farm of F. P. Blair, Sr.
The battle that followed and the assault
on Fort Stevens is a matter of
history. It is well known that President
Lincoln stood upon the ramparts
of Fort Stevens until he was ordered
back by the cry of the Union soldiers,
"Lincoln to the rear! Lincoln to the
rear!"
When the famous Sixth army corps
appeared on the scene Early began his
retreat on the night of July 12 and the
morning of July 13. The rear of his
retreating army was protected by a
cloud of Confederate sharpshooters,
mostly Mississippians. They dodged
from bush to bush and tree to tree
and fired with uneering aim into the
advancing columns of blue.
The last of these sharpshooters to

in history was a boyish Mississippi an,
who had clambered into a great tree
near the famous Blair mansion, and
was picking off the Union officers. He
remained too long engaged in his
game of death and a volley from one
of the advancing Union companies
brought him to the sward.
His body remained there until the
echoes of battle had died away in the
distance. Then it was that the remains
of this fair-haired Mississippi 1
boy were discovered by members of
the Blair family. There was nothing
about him to indicate his name or
place of residence.
He was buried by tender hand9 beneath
the tree which had been his
covert retreat while protecting the
rear of his commander's army. There
is not the remotest trace of his name
or from whence he came, except in a
general way that he was a Mississippian,
and perhaps for long years this
unknown soldier in gray has been
mourned by loving mother, father and
relatives, who do not know upon what
battlefield of the South he perished.
The lonely grave on the outskirts of
Washington has not, however, been
forgotten by loving hands.
A little monument of white marble
marks the last resting place of this
boy sharpshooter of the Southland,
and on ever}* recurring Memorial day j
garlands of beautiful flowers are
placed upon the mound by the members
of one of the most distinguished
families of the State of Maryland.
Today members of the Confederate
society of Washington will add their
tribute to the unknown marksman. In
common with the grand family which
has provided him with such a picturesque
resting place and such a beautiful
tribute in marble.?Washington

There are now twenty-nine routes

excellent service which the people
are so much delighted with. This
organization, of course, is beneficial
to the carriers, and it is to be regretted
that all are not interested in the
work which it is intended to improve,

each other.
The Leesville and Batesburg carriers

The Man Ahead.
In every newspaper we pick up we
are sure to find a lot of gush about
the man behind the counter and the
man behind the gun, the man behind
the buzz saw and the man behind his
son, the man behind the bars and the
man behind the cars, and everything
behind has entered on the list.
They skipped another fellow of
whom nothing has been said?the fellow
who is even or a little way ahead,
who always pays for what he gets,
whose bills are always signed?he's a
blamed sight more important than the
man who is behind. All we editors
and merchants and the whole commercial
plan are indebted for existence
to the honest fellow man. He
keeps us all in business, and his own
town is never dead, and so we take
off our hat to the man who is ahead.

Granted Requisition.
Atlanta, May 31.?Gov. Terrell today
granted a requisition in favor of
the governor of South Carolina for
Ben Lumsford and Tom Williams,
two negroes, who are now in jail in
Augusta, and who are wanted in
Aiken, S. C., for the murder of Mrs.
E. S. Wilson. There was no opposition
to the requisition, and little is
known here about the crime. The
agent from South Carolina will carry
the men back to that State for trial.

"I have been afflicted with kidney and

or stones with excruciating pain," says
A. H. Thurnes, a well known coal operator
of Buffalo, 0. "I got 110 relief from
medicine until I began taking Foley's
Kidney Cure, then the result was surprising.
A few doses started the brickdust-like
substance and now I have 110
pain across my kidneys and I feel like a

of good." Foley's Kidney Cure will
cure every form of kidney or bladder disease.

If her system is in a deranged condition,
or she is predisposed to apoplexy
or congestion of any organ, it is at this
time likely to become active and, with
a host of nervous irritations, make life
a burden.
At this time, also, cancers and tumors
are more liable to begin their destructive
work. Such warning symptoms as
a sense of suffocation, hot flashes, dizziness,
headache, dread of impending
evil, sounds in the ears, timidity, palpitation
of the heart, sparks before the
eyes, irregularities, constipation, variable
appetite, weakness and inquietude
are promptly heeded by intelligent
women who are approaching the period
of life when woman's great change
may be expected.
We believe Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is the world's greatest
remedy for women at this trying
period.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Comnrmnd
in vitro rates and strengthens the
female organism, and builds up the
weakened nervous system as no ether
medicine can.
Mrs. A. E. G. Hyland, of Chestertown,
Md., in a letter to Mrs. Pinkham,
says:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:?
" I had been suffering v<th a displacement
for years and was passing through the change
of life. I had a good deal of soreness, dizzy
spells, headaches, and was very nervous. I
wrote you for advice and commenced treatment
with Lydia E Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound as you directed, and I am happy
to say that all those distressing symptoms left
me, and I have passed safely through the
change of life a well woman."
For special advice regarding this important
period women are invited to
write to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass
She is daughter-in-law of Lydia E.
Pinkham and for twenty-five years has
been advising sick women free of
charge. Her advice is free and always
