He suffered as no other Confederate. He met every crisis dauntlessly and measured up to every just expectation and demand of his people. The speaker related incidents in Mr. Davig' life as a soldier, planter, statesman, U. S. Senator, president of the confederacy and as risoner e'Wetates. “With such a varied and wide ex- perience,” said Gen. Green, “his character at all times exemplified gen- tleness and unselfishness. He was Un- assuming and rigidly truthful, com- bining a life of patriotism, nobility and sincerity with an honest desire to serve his fellow man, which chal- lenges the world’s admiration. Wished to Serve People. “Having served in ‘public life moré than thirty conmsecutive vyears until 1861 found him with the highest hon- ors his state could bestow (a U. 8. senato.) there was nothing more he could,, wish, and vet at the call , of duty, the voice of his state, he laid aside his honors voluntarily in order to-serve his people’s interest. He was not at any time a secessionist. He drged on all occasions forbearance and patience when political wrongs were heaped upon the South, but when his state passed the ordinance of seces- sion he fendered his resignation as senator, choosing rather to take his lot with his own people as a_ private citizen. Mr. Davis never gave up the hope of a satisfactory compromise until the first gun had been fired. He contended that a guarantee of equal rights under the conmstitution woula restore the Union, immediately.” The speaker mentioned that after Mr. Davis returned to Mississippt from Washington, the governor as- signed him to command all the mili- tary forces of the state, and on Feb- ruary 9, 1861 he was unanimounsly elected president of the provisional government of the Confederates states of America. Model of Wisdom. Mr. Davis regarded the confederate constitution a model of wisdom, and liberal statesmanship,” said Gen. Green,” and as his election was un- animous he accepted, though he great- ly preferred active military service. He was in no sense a candidate for the presidency and was greatly disap- pointed that he had been elected. The provisional government having ex- pired Feb. 22, 1862, the confederate congress re-elected Mr. Davis to the presidency. General Green referred to Davis® conduct of affairs of the Confederacy, of his efforts on behalf of the sol- diers of the South and on bhehalf of prisoners of war of both the North and South, of the removal of Mr. Davig arid his cabinet from Richmond to points farther south, as the Union forces closed about them, and of the 1eceipt by Davis of news of the sur- render of the Confederate generals.

Mr. Davis intended to go west and cross the Chattahoochee end attempt to fall in with troops in | Alabama and so cross the Mississippi and join General E. K. Smith and con- tinue the war so0 on that side of the river with the ultimate purpose that the seceded states should return to the United States with all rights of the &tates unimpaired, “Three days after leaving Washing- | ton Mr, Davis found his family en- camped with a small wagon train and traveled several days with them. He still intended to lay down to shortly before dawn. Soon afterward hie negro coachman reported to him that he heard firing nearby. Davis left his tent, wnc saw some nion cavalrymen. Hisg wife urged him to escape. His horse was hitched nearby. As it was still darkr he picked up in the tent what he thought was his raincoat, and later found it was his wife’'s. Mrs. Dayis threw a shawl over his shoulders to protect him from the cool morning afr. He had advanced from the tent but a few steps when he was ordered to halt. Mr. Davis threw off the rain- coat and shawl and advanced upon the trooper, but his wife rushed up and threw her arms about him and there was nothing to do but surrender, Many. false statements have been made by his enemies as to the dress he wore when arrested but Mr. Dgvis’ scldierly character and courage give the lie to all such stories and those ct his household who were present hore him out in his statement that he wore a gentleman’'s morning wrap- per.” Life as a Prisoner. General Green related stories of Mr. Davis’ life in Fortress Monroe as a prisoner of the Unitea States and quotgd statements of a fort physician cencerning the prisoner’s patience and gentleness during his confinement. General Green told of Davis’ reiease from Fort Monroe, of his going Canada and in closing sa:a: “President Johnson’'s anxiety to such that he employed the greatest criminal lawyers of the age to assist tion of the case. Johnson also sent for the chief justice or the States supreme court and asked him to look into the matter on the part of the United States. If ever there was a partisan it was Salmon P. Chaes, but at that time he was a great lawyer and ‘an honest, ferless man. Davis’ Capture Mistake, ‘ ‘Lincoln,’ said’ Chase, ‘wanted Jefferson Davis to escape and he was right. His capture was a mistake, his trial will be a greater onme.: We cannot convict him of treason. Se- cession is settled; let it stay settled.’ “These words explained the vete of the great judge who would havé guashed the indictment against Mr. Davis no less than they explained the question so often asked: , ‘Why w Jefferson Davis never tried for trea- son?' On Mr. Davis' return from rada to Richmond for his trial he was signed by Horace Greeley Gerritt Smith. The case against Jefferson Davis néver was, called fn court. SAY CITY NEEDS ' PUMPING ENGINE In Case of Serious Fire the Depart- ment Would Be Ha.t.apped 3 by, Lack of. Apparatus. When the new safety board, which is to be appointed by the mayor— some time in the sweet by and by— meets and organizes, ene of its first acts will bg to. bring to the atten. tion of the comimon council the exact: status of the city fire department, showing it up in.alt its glaring weak- ness from lack of efficfent apparatus.: The absolute need of at least one pumping engine, to be locatéd at No. 3 or No. 4 Engine house, is to be ex- plained and a request for its pur- chase will be made. '« Yesterday the mayor and three commissioners he plans to reappoint, Messrs, Alling, Healey -and Holmes, held a conference at which these mat- ters ‘were discussed. The safety commissioners feel that im.case of a big fire the department would be han- dicapped and that this should;be for- cibly presented fo the city fathers. . Then, 4n case they are refused their new apparatus and a bad fire occurs the government of theé city cannot blame the commissioners but on the other hand they can say to the coun- cil members ““we told you s0.” The regular meeting of the safety board will come on Tuesday, June 8, unless the new board: decides upon some other date. rest | Mr. | to ! i | Clarence, Williams, Connecticut Agri- ccnvict Jefferson Davis of treason was ! the attorney general in his investiga- @ United | s admitted to bail on pond which | and | 10c Fancy Ripe { Strawberries »¥ GROP OF GOLLEGE CANDIDATES BIG |N.

ITH the approach of warm weather the question of how to guard against the } annual mosquito invasion again presents itself. Many communi- kies have already begun to wage war 'on the flying pests. Anti-mosquito campalgns were for- merly considered more or less of a joke, |The mosquito itself was no joke, how- ever, but it stung the public for a long, “ong ‘time in perfect security and with increasing zest before people would be- gin to take the idea of reprisals on the mosquito seriously.

Doty, then heaith offi- cer for the port. i+ New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania \and Delaware have laws under which 'boards of health can declare any mos- ,quito breeding territory a public nui- |sance. These states have spent enor- gmous sums in fighting the mosquito, but the outlay has been more than re- | ypaid by the vast increase which has re- ‘sulted in the taxable value of property. \ When Dr. Charles A. R. Campbell, | president of the San Antonio Academy of Medicine, built on the shore of Michell lake, a large body of standing :sewer water a few miles from San An- tonln, Tex., a bat roost for raising bats o cure malaria medical and lay nfen :alike were highly amused by an idea ‘that seemed ridiculous. But the bats ended the mosquitoes jand malaria, and the authorities of San /Antonio were so fully converted that they passed an ordnance to prohibit the estruction of bats. This is the only Jlegislation of the kind in the world. ‘How to Keep Them Away. ! People who like mosquitoes can easily o do is to leave stagnant water around. uite a small tin dish will do.
