RELIPS OF WAR. Interesting and Historic Battlefields Near thp Jamestown Exposi tion. Norfolk, Va., February 28.-On ac count of the .Jamestown exposition many veterans of the Great War wil tread the soil of Old Virginia agaii this summer after a lapse of fort; odd years. They will come with little less fire in their eyes, a litth more halt in their foot.steps and a lit tle more gray in their locks, neverthe less they will come with memories a bright and minds as keen as whi they followed the fortunes of batti with Grant and Sheridan or Lee an Jackson. They will walk over th battlefields of Seven Pines or Fai Oaks, Cold Harbor or the Wildernes and stop occasionally to gather u) gray leaden bullet, a minie ball ori rusty grape shot. Iley may, by a fit tie search discover the point. of a bay onet protruding from the soil or i may be otily a buckle from a soldier' belt with "U. S. A.'' or "C. S. A.' emblazoned with the brassy-green o the by-gone years.

OUR WASHIGKTON LETTER, 1Social Equality of Races-The Re roads and the People. I Special Cor. Herald and News. Washington, Feb. 28.-Southe men in Washington regret that W. B. DuBois, the negro professor of . lanta, saw fit in his recent address New York to use language calculat to justify mixed marriages and to c courage those of his race who adN cate social equality. According l'rofecsors Bulois a mixture of r grblood with white has been i > sponsible for the genius of many Ithe great men of history.

When once this is identity of interests is thoroughly un x- derstood the railroads of the South er and the people will be brought to he gether in more harmonious co-opera nir tion for the developmen,t of the nat in- ural resources of the South and for er the expansion of all lines of industry.

He said: id ''Of even more importance than'a X- earet'ul observanlice of duties plresc'ib L ed by the company is obedience to ilaw.
