STONEWALL JACKSON. TW Great Commander a* Capt. L. M. Ortet aemembered Him. Yorkvtlle Enquirer. ' Mise Mary Johnston's latent novel. "The Long Holl." la getting a lot of valuable advertising because of the author a alleged ignorant and men? dacious mlsrs presentations of the character of Stonewall Jackson. We have not read Miss Johnston's book, but understand that the row has been raised because ths author has repre? sented the famous general as a boor *\h. unbalanced fellow, fond of dls n'ay. and dissatisfied, because he did not get the measure of recognition to which his merits entitled him. Al? though the present editor of the En? quirer baa no first hand information to offer, he feels as well quallded to deny this Impression as if he had served undsr Jackson himself This remark Is based partly fbn the fact that he has read hundreds of hon? est pages about this red oub table sol? dier, but more particularly on ths testimony of ths late L. M. Grist the writer's father, who was captain of Company A. 11th South Carolina vol? unteers, who belonged to Jackson's command, and who came In personal contact with him on several occa? sions. "Ths first Ums I ever taw Oen. Jackson.' ths writer ones heard Capt Ortet say. "was on the occasion of ths capturs of Menaaaaa Junc? tion. In August. 1811. The Junction was a depot of supplies belmging to ths Yankee army, and our men were almost famished, not having had a satisfying meal for days, it was very wsll understood that we were to re? main at the Junction but a short tlmo. aad It developed upon me personally to see that my company got a share of the captured provisions Under ths circumstances, ths most practical way to get what was wanted was to find Oen. Jackson himself. I did thin, coming upon the General by the side of a long train of freight cars. There were about him. coming and going, a largo number of officers In full uni? form, and. eo far as appearance went, he was the most Inconspicuous man la eight He did not even have % sword. I saluted and told him whst I wasted. Immediately he pointed to a commissary house a hundred yards away, and told me to go there and get my supplies. Accompanied by a half dosen men I did as directed, re? peated Oen. Jackson's verbal orders and got everything that the members of my company needed. There was a plenty for everybody, and to spare, but so far as the provisions were con? cerned, we did not get the benefit of more than two square meals, because almost everything had to be thrown sway In the march to Manaasas Plaln?. Jackson looked to ms liks a^ very ordinary kind of a fellow until ; he spoke, and when he spoke, you not only felt but knew that you had the law. The feeling of the men waa and I shared It to a greater extent than 1 ever shared such a feeling with regard to any other man I had ever seen be- | fore or have ever seen since, that Oen. Jsckson seas ths living embodiment of righteous duty. There was no selfish? ness In his make-up. He knew no master except Almighty Ood, and considered Oen. Lee's orders ss com? ing from ths Mastsr. There wss never a minute that Jackson was un? willing to take any risk or share any peril that he required of tho humb? lest common soldlsr, and he never spared himself any more than he spared his soldiers. There were thousands who thought Jackson should have been commander-ln - chief of the Confederate forces, but thsre is no good reason to think that he ever aspired to or desired such a position. Hs had absolute confidence In and the highest admiration for Gen Lee, and even If the authorities had desired to placs him ovsr Lee. the probability Is that h? would not have been willing to submit to the change. Had I<ee been killed during Jackson's lifetime, there was no question as to who would have been his successor." It Is not t<? be expected that ths general public will loe Impressed by sll this as the writer wie Impressed, but so fsr as ws are concerned, that Is our estlmste of Stonewsll Jackson, and no writer of novels or history, living or dead, can hange that im? pression In the slightest particular.

The Western Publisher. This poem is from the pen of Louis C. Crameton, editor of the La peer (Mich.) Clarion, and secre? tary of the Eastern Michigan Frees club. Last evening I was talking With a printer aged and gray, Who told me of a dream he had Just after Christmas day. i While a-snooxlng in his office The vision came to view; He saw an angel enter, dressed In garments white and new. Said the spirit: "I'm from heaven, The Lord has sent me down To bring you up to glory; Pat on your golden crown. "Many merchants you've mads richer (From few received full pay); While you've grown poorer and poor? er? Your business did decay. "So we need you up in glory. For you have labored hard Until your brow is hoary? You've earned a great reward." Then the angel and the printer Started toward the golden gate; But when passing close to hades The angel murmured "Walt ? "Here's a nook I wish to show you? It's ths hottest place in hell. Where the dubs who beat ths printer In awful torment dwell." . The printer saw before him Old patrona by the score; An easy chair and fan he grabbed, And asked for nothing more. He eat and eat and watched them, Saw them sizzle, scorch and burn; And his former debtors saw him Whichever way hs'd turn. e Said the angel: "Come up higher, And ths pearly gates we'll see." But the printer only answered? "This Is hsayen enough for me." The above Is a very suggestive bit of trus poetical composition (ths rhyme Is good snd the meet'er per? fect.) There are thoes who will eay after reading it: "That's no dream." Home Booster's Creed. Under the above caption the Im? plement Dealer'e Bulletin publishes the creed of a loyal-spirited trade booster who gives good reasons why he ahould support the home mer? chant The Bulletin suggests that all readers of the creed should ask their local papers to publish It. "I buy at home: "Because my Interests are here. "Because the community that Is good enough for me to live in is good enough for me to buy in. "Because I believe in transacting business with my friends. "Because I want to see the goods. "Because I want to get what I buy when I pay for It. 4 "Because my home dealer carries me v nen I run short. "Because every dollar I spend at home stays at home and works for the welfare of my town. "Because the man I buy from stands back of the goods. "Because I sell what I produce here at home. "Because the man I buy from pays his part of the town, county and State taxes. "Because the man I buy from gives value received always. "Because the man I buy from helps support my school, my church, my lodge, my home. "Here I live and here I buy." Thirsty Souls Looked On. A libation to Bacchus was offered by the sheriff and the town author? ities, not by y of worship to the Jolly old heathen god, h ?wever, but In compliance with the stern man? date of the law, on last Monday morn? ing, when a heavily-laden one-horso wagon load of beer and "booze," whlrh had been seized and confiscat? ed by the officers, was hauled to the edge of town and poured upon the ground. Many thirsty souls watched the wagon carrying off so much area* lous stuff, doomed to ignohh? destruc? tion, with longing eyes and watering mouth.?Darlington News and Cross.

The services at the First Christlun church Sunday, November 12, at 8 o'clock, p. m. will consist of special music by the choir and an address by the pastor. The address will not be on doc trine.

This church wishes to co-operate with every phase of Sumter's business, social, and financial life which makes for the uplift of this community. Will the citizens please come to this service as Citizens? THE PASTOR. THE ROAD DRAG. The Cheapest of Good Rood Makers. Speaking of co-operation and re? duced cost of marketing and easier distribution, there is hardly my work that offers help at all these points more surely than the good road. It Is a chance for farmers and everybody to co-operate in one ol the most essential methods of commu? nity mprovement. B Improving communication with the outside world, It reduces the cost of marketing the farmer's own pro? ducts and of getting all tho farmer's purchases back to his farm. Moreover, it enables the farmer to take his crop to market at any time when prices suit hlrn, whereas this is not true under present conditions. After all, there are Just two kinds of roads?the kind that help a com? munity and the kind that tax a com? munity. It has been shown that to carry a ton one mile by sea costs one-tenth of a cent; by railroad, one cent. To haul a ton over good roads costs seven cents a mile; over ordi? nary roads, 25 cents a mile. The mud tax, the excess cost you pay your bad road therefore, r mounts to 18 cents a mile per ton. This matter Is especially timely lust now, for the winter is coming on, when all hauling must h done under maximum difficulties. Which kind of road have you in your neighborhood ?the kind that taxes a community, or the kind that helps? And If you have only the kind rhat taxes, whoee fault .s it? Ther^ Is 'iO better place to begin that community co-operation than right here in some movement for bet? ter roads for your community. >Tor is there any better method of start? ing highway improvement, we may add. than with the simple split-log drag?or better still, the Improved steel drag, which at $25 apiece has been pronounced the cheapest of all road makers. In Northampton Coun? ty, N. C, splendid results nave neen attained by paying farmers by the hour for dragging roads after rains -the same plan that has worked so well in Iowa. The same system is In successful operation in Catawba County. Concerning tho work there, Mr. R. I? Shuford tells us in a note Just received: "My hope Is, that by another year, we will drag all our public roads after rains all over the county. If we can get this plain In working shape, we can have practical? ly all roads dragged In tho first half day after rains, which Will give us smooth roads that will dry off quick? ly." See if you can not start success? ful co-operative movement by getting everybody In your township or coun? ty working together In some plan for better roads. And any scheme look? ing to better roads for a community should Include plans for using the drag.?Progressive Farmer. Tit for Tut. She wore a bonnet like a pot; He wore a fuzzy hat.
