(From the Houston Post.)
A One of the most beautiful songs of
Ihn Southern Confederacy never found
Hi way into print, although It was
?* the moat popular aonga of the
Clall War. Thla song waa written by
am Ambamtan. Lieutenant Harrington.
Although quite popular In the
during the day* of the war (hi
la axnr almost forgotten, save
by a very few of tho Confed
atata eoIdler*. Daring tnoae days of
Um war. the aoag was sung by the
of ths Confederacy about tin
and on the march through
Aftt Um South and soon became a pop
^*-dun\ aoag of those days. This song
vrg# nailed "Ths Homespun Dress."
II to said that some ysarr ago the
nete? author, Dr. John Urt Lloyd, of
fefti |tt for a copy of the song. He
vtmted to reproduce it in ona of hi*

?
Aa the story was related to me. It
on a beautiful morning In the
early fall of the year HC2 that a
small group of men were atandlng In
feront of a country store In the village
Bf Carrollton. Ky.. watching a detach?
ment of Confederate C?n. Morgan's
eevairy coming down tie pike In the
la that little group about the coun?
try store was Dr.. John Url Lloyd, the
.author As ths soldiers fib d by the
ipbre they were singing "The Homo
apua Dress." Dr. Lloyd Uksd the
aoag. and la after years he wanted to
print It in ons of his books. He could
pot rememoer the words and he was
enable to find the song anywhere so
offered a reward for it
It might be well to say Just here
that the town of Florence, hy.. where
Dr. Lloyd first heard the song, has
glace b*?cofne familiarly known as
?ftrlngtown,'' being tho village refer?
red to In "rftrlngtown on the Pike."
While Morgan's army wns In Lex
tgton, Ky.. the women of that city
ire a ball one night In honor of
Sgergan's men. On this occasion. It is
gsdd .the women app' ar?M In hone
Spun dr?-s*es Lb-ut? -mint Harrington,
^ Alabama, who wns a member of
Morgan'? army, and who attended the
tBBfclb wmS so deeply affected by the
Bgsjrer of Ksntucky's young woman?

attachment between the I WO that was
more than friendship.
Miss Earle was an accomplished
musician, and improvised an air for
the young lieutenant's song-poem and
played and sang it on the piano dur?
ing the evening. It is amid that all
the men of Morgan's command soon
learned the words and tlu air and of?
ten sang "The Homespun Dress."
Lieutenant Harrington gave Miss
Earle the orirlnal manuscript copy of
the words of the song, and it la said
that It was from her that Mr. Mus
grove, of Carrollton, Ky., secured the
words of the song, as found In the
manuscripts written by himself.
Lieutenant Harrington Iwas killed In
the battle of Perryvllle, October 8,
1861. only a few days after the ball
In Lexington, Ky., where he wrote the
words to the song and where he met
Miss Barle. Miss Earle died only a
few years ago. She never married.
She kept tho manuscript copy of the
song. Just as It was written by Lelut
?nnnt Harrington, all her lifetime,
and It Is said that she prized It most
highly. \
Lieutenant Harrington's grave Is
unknown, but the song words which
he composed lived In the heart of a
fair Kentucky girl until death called
her away to join her soldier lover In
i better and brighter world.
The song, although never printed, so
far as f have been able to leirn, has
lived for almost a half century in the
hearts of thd few remaining soldiers
of the South and in the hearts of the
few women of those trying days who
still live.
"The Homespun Dross" should fill
a plsce In the nation's archives as a
popular song and as a historical mem?
ento of that great conflict between the
States of the Union.
It would be fitting for Alabama to
erect a monument to the memory of
that brave soldier-poet son of hers
who gave his life for the cause he be?
lieved to be right?Lieutenant Har?
rington, who sleeps today, perhaps,
in another Stats. In a grave unknown
and doubtless unmarked, even by a
plain slab bearing the inscription "un?

"Ethics requires persons who can
not afford to buy automobiles to re?
sist' the mania. In one city ct mod?
erate else within two months fifty
men mortgaged their homes to get
mosey to buy an automobile. These
were probably not all, but that could
be ascertained. Since that time, in
th. sums Stats, but m a smaller place, I
SI did the same thins;. Ordinary
drunkards do not go much farther
than that. Every person who Is a
Christian should resist' with all his
moral power the growing; tendency to
spent Sunday In automobillng. It is
as right for s Christian who lives at
a distance from church to ride there
In an automobile as It Is to do so In
i carriage, but thousands who never
thought of spending Sunday on ex?
cursions, beginning gradually, now
spend the whole day In such pleasure.
Temptations to spend the night come
under the classification of hygiene.
To allow young people to make night
oxcurslons to morally or otherwise
?incanny regions is a violation of pa?
rental ehtics. The old 'road houses'
are coming hack., with some added
evils. Fearful domestic scandals, re?
vealed by accidents, ending In the
brealslr.g up of families, are becom?
ing numerous.
"A'e should say that at least 25 per
cent of all uutomoblllsts that we have
seen have been guilty of one or more
of the following infractions of public
rights: Illegal speed, dangerous prox?
imity to other vehicles too great risks
in passing, failure to toot their horns,
or tooting them so loud as to frlglit
n horses, Indifference to the actions
?f horses, ind disregard of common
decencies, such as going at great
*peed through towns when church
services are breaking up ind tho
horses of attendants are druwn up In
a row along the sidewalks, also, in
addition to great speed, making all
?sorts of noises as they BUSi through
the towns and laughing at the dismay
of persons In carriages, or racing on
the highways, also Indifference to ac?
cidents which they have caused. Be?

THE (JREAT COCOAXVT TREE.
One of the Wonders of Nature?Food,
Drink ami Shelter Provided for
Tropical Dwellers.
"A wonder for sure is the cocoanut
tree," said a man familiar with the
tree, its fruit as ma.nufact ired pro?
ducts. Ita native home is India,
from which originally its seed wa*
carried by ocean currents to islands
of the sea and to more or lesa distant
mainlands, whence by yet other cur?
rents or perhaps by the hands of man
it was carried on still further until
the cocoanut tree had come to be
found, as It is now, In tropical and
sub-tropical climes all around the
globe.
"The cocoanut thrives best In lands
along the margin of the sea; it likes
tho &alt water. Plant a cocoanut back
of a fence or a stone wall and it will
grow up straight until it has come to
the height of tho fence, but above
that It will incline toward the water.
If It Is planted further Inland they
put a block of salt under it.
"The ueed is the cocoanut itself,
which, as you know, Is encased as It
grows on the tree In an elongated
fibre filled husk with a hard, smooth
outer surface. Cocoanuts dropping
from the tree Into the sea and them
floating away first spread the tree
over the earth.
"Having fcund suitable lodgment
the nut tends up out of one of the
three eyes to be found In one end of
It?the eyes familiar to us as we com?
monly see the cocoanut In Its spheri?
cal form divested of its outer husk?
through one of these eyes it sends up
a sprout which works its way through
and out of the husk, this being the
start of the young cocoanut tree. As
the young tree grows the husk disin?
tegrates and rots away.
"Cocoanut trees attain a height of
from twenty to eighty feet, according
to attuation and circumstances. The
tree begins to bear fruit at about
eight years of age, its life Is about
120 years; Its yield In bearing about
a hundred nuts annually, and an In?
teresting fact is that the nuts drop
from the tree at night.
Tn many places in which the fruit
Is found the tree, with Its fruit, Is In?
dispensable to the well being and It
may be to the existence of the native
human dwellers. The outer bark of
the tree supplies a material which
may be used for the purpose of cloth?
ing; the solider part of the trunk may
be used for the framing and the tree's
leaves for the covering of shelters,
while the tree's fruit supplies food
and the fibres of the husk a material
for fishing lines.
"In many places where the cocoa
nut tree thrives fish and cocoanuts
from the only food supplies of the
natives, and In distant isolated salt
waves, surrounded islands or cays, the
cocoanut may be their only source of
supply of fresh water. The cocoanut
tree is practically hollow Inside, and
through this porous Interior, almost
as freely as It could be pumped up
through a pump log, It draws up wa?
ter for its own substenance and
growth and from which It fills with
distilled water the fruit on the tree,
for the milk so-called In the cocoanut
Is practically drinking water, with
very little1 other matter. And so in
some places the cocoanut supplies .all
the fresh water obtainable as it may
as well the food?surely a wonderful
and a beneficent tree.
"Coming back now to the general
subject, we find tha't the manufactur?
ed products of this wonderful tree are
now In common use throughout the
civilized world. To bring it right close
It may be that when you go home to?
night you will wipe the mud off your
shoes on a door-mat made of cocoa
fibre, and if you should take a nap
before dinner you will lie down, it may
be, on a lounge whose stufhlng con?
tains more of less of the same ma?
terial.
"The oil with which you dress your
falod may be cocoanut oil, and for
dessert you may have cocoanut pie.
In the kitchen you might find scrub?
bing brushes made of OOvnftUUt fibre,
and likewise brooms. The uses of the
cocoanut are various.
"For many years, in fact since way
back; cocoanuts have been imported
In some numbers and they were to be
found for sale In grocery stores and
elsewhere, as they still are, and child?
ren used to buy them and take home
and bore a hole through the eyes and
pour the milk out Into a tea cup and
drink that, and then get .father to
break the eoeoaroit with a hatchet,
and then they'd eat the meat, as chil?
dren still do.
"The number of the cocoanuts lm
ported for such and other retail de?
mands is considerable, but still it
isn't a drop In ihe bucket to the num?
ber now Imported for manufacturing
uses.
.Millions or cocoanuts are imported
to ibis countrj annually, some <>f
tin- ' from wild or natural growth
trei y. nnd some from planted and cul?
tivated trees; for the cocoanut Is now
cultivated; and it might be mentioned
In pamlng that ? cocoanut plantation
is called a cocoanut walk.
"Of this enormous Importation of
ooeoannt? *?** ' ? "
eater share of this to the manufac
rers of prepared cocoanut for do?
mestic and other cooking uses. Form
rly the house wife who wanted to
Be cocoanut for pies or cakes or pud
iings used to grate it herself. Now
e vast majority of all users of co?
coanut buy the manufactured product
ill ready prepared for use, and the
manufacture of this is a trade in
hich people find employment.
"Cocoanuts to be used in making
prepared cocoanut. are put, a lot of
em together, into iron crates in
hich they are subjected to a steam
bath. This swells the outside shell a
litt|e anu at the Fame time contracts
the meat within and tends to separate
cr to make it easier to separte from,
the shell.
"From the steam bath the nuts go
the man, who opens the nuts
ometimes In the steam bath the
hells of the nuts, or some of them,
may crack, which facilitates by so
much the work of the opener.
"Father used to crack the cocoanut
.vith a hatchet. The professional co?
coanut opener U3es an implement
that is much like a solid steel oyster
knife, having at one end the heavy
ron handle and at the other end the
)lade. With the heavy end of this the
pene?* taps the cocoanut and cracks
he shell and cracks it off, or if any
r all of it still adheres to the meat
he pries it off with the knife end of
the Implement, leaving the round
5lobe of cocoanut meat unbroken, but
till covered with its familiar brown
outer skin.
"In these days there are men who
work regularly at cocoanut opening
just as they might at any other em?
ployment, though one somewhat un?
usual feature of the cocoanut open?
er's work Is that they begin it at 2
a, m., this so that sufficient stock may
be prepared daily in advance for the
other workers to begin on. An ex?
pert cocoanut opener can open 2,00u
nmts a day.
"The shells removed, other workers
take the whole nut meats and spoke
shave off that brown outer skin, and
then the white round globe of cocoa
nut meat Is put Into a machine and
quartered. In theee quarter sections
the meat is inspected for the rejection
of nuts* not sound and sweet, and then
It is sterilized, after which it is ready
for the various further processes In?
volved in shredding and drying and
otherwise preparing It for the mar?
ket."
