Let me alone, the dronm Is my own, And my heart is full of rest. My true love fares on this great hill, Feeding his sheep for aye; I look'd In his hut, but all was still, My love was gone away. I went to gaze in the forest creek, And the dove mourn'd on apace; No flame did flash, nor fair blue reek Rose up to show me his place. O last love! O first love! My love with the true heart, To think I have come to this your home. And yet.we are apart I My love!' Ho stood at my right hand, His eyes were grave and sweet; Methought he said: "In this far land, O, is it thus we meet? Ah, maid most dear, I am not here; I have no place, no part, No dwelling more by sea or shore, But only in thy heart." O fair dove! O fond dove! Till night rose over the bourn.

To refute this »tatermont wo have been requested, at a reoent meeting of Leo Camp Auxiliary, to give to the public, through tho medium of tho press, a brief and conciso account of tho purpose for Which Leo Ca,mp Auxiliary was organ- l7,e<i and the object for which it has labored unremittingly during twenty years. It wa,«i formed soon after tho closo of tho Confederate Bazaar, held at Rich¬ mond In the spring of 1884, and was the outcome of a conviction on the part of the members of Lee Camp that help should come through themselves and their representatives in the Ladle»' Auxiliary, to the indigent families of Confederate soldiers. Since then the camp has contributed the sum of one thousand dollars annu¬ ally for this purpose. Tho appropriation has been added to In a small way by dues of .ten cent» a month from active mombers, and t/wenty-nve cents a month from registered members of the auxiliary. Since 1881 the -work of aiding needy Confedera to women and their families has boon carried on winter and summer, night nnd riay, without cessation. In the winter of 1893, -when many families were thrown out of employment, the auxiliary sent throughout the State an appeal for help in the way of provisions, t^at were de¬ livered by tho railroads free of charge. By this method tins ladles were enabled to ifsue suppHen trt-weekly for three months to, at least, one hundred families. Lee Camp Amxlllary also furnished two beds In the Old Dominion Hospital, where needy Confederate women wer« treated and restored to health in many Instances. Ten years apo Lee Camp called a com¬ mittee of the auxiliary and proposed erect. Ing a home for Confederate womon. In reply tho auxiliary pointed out tho fact that every woman In the already estab¬ lished homes In Richmond was a needy Confederate, and that tho work of the auxiliary was In the homes of such, so the Idea was abandoned as unnecessary. Lee Camp, however, purchased a lovely spot In Rlvervlew Cemetery as a burial place for such needy Confederate women us were without a section of their own. "With their own hands the members of tho auxiliary hay« cloned the eye* In death, shrouded the forms of needj* Confedéralo women, and seen t.o their being laid de¬ cently to rest in Rlvervlftw, Leo Camp Auxiliary contlnu+FT Its work with, only one annual public appeal'being mode, and that at the Christmas season, for free will offerln.çs. Many private Individuals have., however, been the gen¬ erous promoters of the auxiliary's char¬ ity, pone more so than the late Vlrginius Newton, who only needed the endorsa.tlon of the auxiliary as to the merits of an appeal to insure his prompt response. Mr. Bllley has always beon the liberal friend of the auxiliary, many timos giv¬ ing funeral expenses for bare coat, with extra carriages seilt as a mark of respect to needy Confederate women. In addition to groceries and clothing, ico has been kindly supplied in summer by Mrs. George W. Bagby, president of tho City Mission. The auxiliary eends fuel in whiter. But so quietly has the work gone on through all the years that the assertion h*» of late obtained as to the neglect of Richmond for her needy Con- federate women, until the establishment of a homo for such women In the past few years. I Against this assertion stands the twenty j thousand dollar gift of Lee Cu-rap. the many gifts of Individuals, the dues from the auxiliary, and I«« never-failing sym¬ pathy and atd extended, not as on obliga¬ tion, but as tho highest fulfilment of a sacred duty. Best of all, the splendid record of Lee Camp and Lee Camp Auxiliary will, an far as human eye can see. be continued until the last needy Confederate woman shall. In the providence of God, have passed to that better home, "not made with hands, eternal In the* heavens." (Signed) MRS. J. W. WHITE, President, MRS. B. A. BUEN N ER. Secretary, MRS. N. V. RANDOLPH.

The Epworth League of Broad Street Church will hold Its regular devotional meeting to-night at 8 o'clock. Mr. N. C. Scott, of Centenary, will lead. Mtembers aro urged to bo present. lire, for there was a bitter n'P in tn0 air. The. Lady Tlphalne had sunk back In her cushioned chair, and her long dark lasses drooped low over her sparkling eyes. Alleyne, glancing at her, noted Uliat her breath came quick and short, and that her rheeks had blanched to a Illy white. Du Guesclln eyed her keenly from time to time, and passed his broad brown lin¬ gers through his crisp, curly black hair with the air of a man who Is perplexed In his rndnd. "These folk hero," said tho knight, of Bohemia, "they do not seem too well led." "Ah. canaille!" cried t-ho Lord of Vllle- franoho. "You would scarce credit It, and yet it Is sooth that when I was taken ¡it Polctlers It was all that my wife and foster-brother could do to ralso tho money from them for my ransom. Tho sulky dogs would luiher have three twtsts.of a rack, or the thirmblkitnn f°>' an hour, than pay oui a denier for their own feudal father and llego lord. Yet there is not one of I hem hut bath Un old stocking full of ¿old pieces hid away in a enug corner." "Why do they not buy food then?" imk- cd Sir Nigel. "By St. Paul! It seemed to nie their bones were 'breaking through tber skin." "it is their gnitchlng and grumbling which makes them thin. Wo have a say¬ ing here, Sir Nigel, that If you pummel Jacques Bonhomme he will pat you, but If you pal him ho will pummel you. Doubtless you lind it (¡o In ISngland." "Ma roi, no!" said Sir Nigel. "I have two Englishmen of this ci asa in my train, who are at this Instant, I make little doubt,, as full of your wine as any cask In your cellar. Ho who pummelled them might tome by such a pat as he would be likely to remember," "I cannot understand"" it," quoth the sciiPBchol, "for the 1-higllrih knight» and not,les whom I have met were not mon to brook the in.ioloucu of the baso bora,' "Percliincu my fair lord, tue poor folk are sweeter ¡'nul of a bettor countenance In .England," laughed tho trfWJy Roche- tort. "Mon Iileu! you cannot conceive to yoiir»eíf bow ugly they are! Wltihotit u.-ilr, without teeth, all twlstod and bent; for me. i cannai think how the good Qod ever cam« to make «nob people. I cannot bear It. 1, and an my trusty Raoul goes ever before me with a OUdgel to drlvo them from my path." "Yet they have souls, fair lady, thoy havo souls!" murmured the chaplain, a white-haired meui with a weary, patient face, "So I have hoard you tell them," said tho lord r-f the eastle;_"nd for myself, father, though I am a true son of holy Church, yet I think that you were hotter employed In saying your maas and tu teaching the children of my men-at-arms, than In going over tho country-side to put ideas In these folks' heads which would nevor have 'been there but for you. I havo heard tihat you have sold to them that their fouls are as good as ours, and that .. is likely that Ih another life they may stand as high ws the oldest blood of Auvergne. For my part, I believe that Ohero are so many worthy knights and gallant gentlemen In heaven who know how such things should be arranged, that there is little fear that wo shall nnd ourselves mixed up with baso roturiers and swine-herds. Tell you beads, fa¬ ther, and con your psalter, but do not come between mo and those whom tho klrg has given to mo!" "God help them!" cried the old priest. ''A higher King than yours has given them to me, and I tell you here in your own casllo hall, Sir Tristram do Roche- fort, that you have sinned deeply In your dealings with these poor folk, and I hat the hour will come, and may even now be at hand, when God's hand will be heavy upon you for what you havo done." He rose as 'ho spoTte, and walked slowly from tho* room. "Pevt take him!" 'cried the Fronch knight. "Now, what is a man to do with a priest, Sir Bertrand?.for one can neither fight nlm like a man nor coax him llko a woman." "Ah, Sir Bertrand knows, the naughty one! cried the Lady Rochefort. "Have we not nil heard how he went to Avignon and squeezed fifty thousand crowns out of the Pope." "Ma fol!" said Sir Nlgol, looking with a mixture of horror and admiration at Du GuesoJIn. "Did not vour heart sink within you? Were you not smitten with fears? Have you not felt a ourse liunif over you?" "I havo no* observed it," said tho Frenchman carelessly. "Hut, by Saint lves! Tristram, this chaplain of yours »seems to me to <be a worthy man, and you »houki (rive heed to bis words, tor though I caro nothing for tho curse of a bad pope, it would bo a grief to mo to have aught but a blessing from a 'good priest."

The world at 11s saddest Is not all sad.There are days of sunny weather;

And the people within It are hot nil bad,But saints and sinners together.

I think those wonderful days In JuneAre better by far to remember.

Than those when the woiid gets out 0!tune

In the cold bleak -winds of Novem¬ber,

Whatever has been Is a finished sum,Whatever will be, why, let It come.

"To-day 1? mine; and so you see

BTHOUGHT the stare wore blinking bright,And the old brig's sails unfurl'd;

1 mild, "I will sail to my love this night.At the other side of the world."

I stepp'd aboard.we aall'd so fast.The suu shot up from the bourn;

But a dove that perch'd upon the mastDid mourn, and mourn, and mourn.

O fair clove! O fond dove!And dove- with the white breast.

Let me alone, the dronm Is my own,And my heart is full of rest.

My true love fares on this great hill,Feeding his sheep for aye;

I look'd In his hut, but all was still,My love was gone away.

I went to gaze in the forest creek,And the dove mourn'd on apace;

No flame did flash, nor fair blue reekRose up to show me his place.O last love! O first love!My love with the true heart,

To think I have come to this your home.And yet.we are apart I

My love!' Ho stood at my right hand,His eyes were grave and sweet;

Methought he said: "In this far land,O, is it thus we meet?

Ah, maid most dear, I am not here;I have no place, no part,

No dwelling more by sea or shore,But only in thy heart."

O fair dove! O fond dove!Till night rose over the bourn.

The dove on the mast, as we sail'd fastDid mourn, and mourn, and mourn.

Election Returns Instantly.For getting bulletins from any part ofthe United States east of the Rockymounta.hifj. nothing has yet beat theSouthern Bell Telephone Company, con¬necting with the American Telephone andTelegraph Company. This was amply de¬monstrated last Tuesday night, when thotelephone company handed th.0 Times-Dispatch the first bit of election newBfrom the outside, possibly half an hourbefore any other agency began to gilvereturns. The paper had the telephonecompany's complete service, and t.hc sunhad hardly set here before the news be¬gan to come from Maine and other pointsfar northeast. Every word said over thowires was perfectly distinct, and utter¬ances in Boston Instantly reached thewaiting ear In Richmond.

WORK OF LEE CAMP AUXILIARYEdltor of The Times-Dispatch:Sir,.Tho statement has boen often

made In Richmond recently that with alltho work done In the city for the Con¬federate veterans, little or nothing hasbeen accomplished I* behalf of the needyConfederate woman.To refute this »tatermont wo have been

requested, at a reoent meeting of LeoCamp Auxiliary, to give to the public,through tho medium of tho press, a briefand conciso account of tho purpose forWhich Leo Ca,mp Auxiliary was organ-l7,e<i and the object for which it haslabored unremittingly during twentyyears.It wa,«i formed soon after tho closo of

tho Confederate Bazaar, held at Rich¬mond In the spring of 1884, and was theoutcome of a conviction on the part ofthe members of Lee Camp that helpshould come through themselves and theirrepresentatives in the Ladle»' Auxiliary,to the indigent families of Confederatesoldiers.Since then the camp has contributed

the sum of one thousand dollars annu¬

ally for this purpose. Tho appropriationhas been added to In a small way bydues of .ten cent» a month from activemombers, and t/wenty-nve cents a monthfrom registered members of the auxiliary.Since 1881 the -work of aiding needy

Confedera to women and their families hasboon carried on winter and summer, nightnnd riay, without cessation. In the winterof 1893, -when many families were thrownout of employment, the auxiliary sentthroughout the State an appeal for helpin the way of provisions, t^at were de¬livered by tho railroads free of charge.By this method tins ladles were enabledto ifsue suppHen trt-weekly for threemonths to, at least, one hundred families.Lee Camp Amxlllary also furnished two

beds In the Old Dominion Hospital, whereneedy Confederate women wer« treatedand restored to health in many Instances.Ten years apo Lee Camp called a com¬

mittee of the auxiliary and proposed erect.Ing a home for Confederate womon. Inreply tho auxiliary pointed out tho factthat every woman In the already estab¬lished homes In Richmond was a needyConfederate, and that tho work of theauxiliary was In the homes of such, sothe Idea was abandoned as unnecessary.Lee Camp, however, purchased a lovely

spot In Rlvervlew Cemetery as a burialplace for such needy Confederate womenus were without a section of their own."With their own hands the members of thoauxiliary hay« cloned the eye* In death,shrouded the forms of needj* Confedéralowomen, and seen t.o their being laid de¬cently to rest in Rlvervlftw,Leo Camp Auxiliary contlnu+FT Its work

with, only one annual public appeal'beingmode, and that at the Christmas season,for free will offerln.çs. Many privateIndividuals have., however, been the gen¬erous promoters of the auxiliary's char¬ity, pone more so than the late VlrginiusNewton, who only needed the endorsa.tlon

of the auxiliary as to the merits of anappeal to insure his prompt response.Mr. Bllley has always beon the liberal

friend of the auxiliary, many timos giv¬ing funeral expenses for bare coat, withextra carriages seilt as a mark of respectto needy Confederate women.In addition to groceries and clothing, ico

has been kindly supplied in summer byMrs. George W. Bagby, president of thoCity Mission. The auxiliary eends fuelin whiter. But so quietly has the workgone on through all the years that theassertion h*» of late obtained as to theneglect of Richmond for her needy Con-federate women, until the establishmentof a homo for such women In the pastfew years. IAgainst this assertion stands the twenty j

thousand dollar gift of Lee Cu-rap. themany gifts of Individuals, the dues fromthe auxiliary, and I«« never-failing sym¬pathy and atd extended, not as on obliga¬tion, but as tho highest fulfilment of a

sacred duty.Best of all, the splendid record of Lee

Camp and Lee Camp Auxiliary will, an

far as human eye can see. be continueduntil the last needy Confederate womanshall. In the providence of God, havepassed to that better home, "not madewith hands, eternal In the* heavens."(Signed) MRS. J. W. WHITE,

Bohemia, "they do not seem too wellled.""Ah. canaille!" cried t-ho Lord of Vllle-

franoho. "You would scarce credit It,and yet it Is sooth that when I was taken¡it Polctlers It was all that my wife andfoster-brother could do to ralso tho moneyfrom them for my ransom. Tho sulkydogs would luiher have three twtsts.of a

cd Sir Nigel. "By St. Paul! It seemed tonie their bones were 'breaking throughtber skin.""it is their gnitchlng and grumbling

which makes them thin. Wo have a say¬ing here, Sir Nigel, that If you pummelJacques Bonhomme he will pat you, butIf you pal him ho will pummel you.Doubtless you lind it (¡o In ISngland.""Ma roi, no!" said Sir Nigel. "I have

two Englishmen of this ci asa in my train,who are at this Instant, I make littledoubt,, as full of your wine as any caskIn your cellar. Ho who pummelled themmight tome by such a pat as he wouldbe likely to remember,""I cannot understand"" it," quoth the

Icannot bear It. 1, and an my trusty Raoulgoes ever before me with a OUdgel to

havo souls!" murmured the chaplain, awhite-haired meui with a weary, patientface,"So I have hoard you tell them," said

tho lord r-f the eastle;_"nd for myself,father, though I am a true son of holyChurch, yet I think that you were hotteremployed In saying your maas and tuteaching the children of my men-at-arms,than In going over tho country-side to putideas In these folks' heads which wouldnevor have 'been there but for you. Ihavo heard tihat you have sold to themthat their fouls are as good as ours, andthat .. is likely that Ih another life theymay stand as high ws the oldest blood ofAuvergne. For my part, I believe thatOhero are so many worthy knights andgallant gentlemen In heaven who knowhow such things should be arranged, thatthere is little fear that wo shall nndourselves mixed up with baso roturiersand swine-herds. Tell you beads, fa¬ther, and con your psalter, but do notcome between mo and those whom thoklrg has given to mo!""God help them!" cried the old priest.

''A higher King than yours has giventhem to me, and I tell you here in yourown casllo hall, Sir Tristram do Roche-fort, that you have sinned deeply Inyour dealings with these poor folk, andI hat the hour will come, and may evennow be at hand, when God's hand will beheavy upon you for what you havo done."He rose as 'ho spoTte, and walked slowlyfrom tho* room."Pevt take him!" 'cried the Fronch

knight. "Now, what is a man to do witha priest, Sir Bertrand?.for one canneither fight nlm like a man nor coax himllko a woman.""Ah, Sir Bertrand knows, the naughty

one! cried the Lady Rochefort. "Havewe not nil heard how he went to Avignonand squeezed fifty thousand crowns outof the Pope.""Ma fol!" said Sir Nlgol, looking with

a mixture of horror and admiration atDu GuesoJIn. "Did not vour heart sinkwithin you? Were you not smitten withfears? Have you not felt a ourse liunifover you?""I havo no* observed it," said tho

Frenchman carelessly. "Hut, by Saintlves! Tristram, this chaplain of yours»seems to me to <be a worthy man, and you»houki (rive heed to bis words, tor though

I caro nothing for tho curse of a badpope, it would bo a grief to mo to haveaught but a blessing from a 'good priest.""Hark to that, any fair lord," cried

the Lody Rochoforl. "Tako hoed. I praythee, for I do not wish 'to 'hnvo a blightcast over me, nor a palsy of tho limitas.I remember that once before you angeredFather Stephen, and my tire-woman goldthat I lost more hair In savon daysthan ever before in a month."

"If that ©o sign of sin, then, (bySaint Patfll I havo mucti upon my soul,"said Sir Nigel, amid a general laugh."But in very truth. Sir Tristram. If 1 mayventure a word of counsel, I should ad¬vise that you make your peace with thisgood man.""He shall havo four silver candlesticks,"

said th« seneschal moodily. "And yet Iwould that ha would leave, the. folk alone.You cannot conceive in your mind howstubborn and brainless thoy nro. Mulesand pigs are full of roajson beside them.God, Ho knows that I_have> had greatpatience with them, Ifwas but last weekthat, having to ralso some money, I calledup to tho castle Jean Ooubert, who, asnil men know, has a cntíket full of goldpieces hidden away In some hollow tree.I give you my word that I did not somuch as 1ny a Brripe upon his fool's 'back,but aftor speaking with him, and tellinghim how needful the monoy was to mo,I left him for th,e night to think overthe matter in my dungeon. What thinkyou that the dog did? Why, in the morn¬ing we found that he had mndo a ropefrom strips of his leathern Jerkin, and hadhung himself to the bar of tho win¬dow.""For wie, I cannot conceive such wick¬
