A few cool daya hare encouraged hos
tesses to forsake the club and entertain
at home, with tha result that the laat
week haa brought aome of the prettiest
parties of tha summer. The revival of the
out of door affairs the lawn and garden
party one do popular, the porch rrty
and the picnic haa been hailed with de
light by tha majority after ao long a
season of more formal Indoor affairs and
tha woman who has a lawn or veranda
that la at all adaptable Is fortunate Indeed.
While the morning card party la by no
mean an Innovation It has been more
numerous of late than for several seasons.
Certainly nothing could be more enjoy
able nor prettier than a game on the
lawn or veranda. Tha croquet party Is also
coming back to favor and Is refresh
Inly mild compared with tha strenuous
bridge game, tha guessing Contest and the
majority of alleged entertainments pro
vided all too frequently on warm afternoon
Whan extending an Invitation Is little
short of asking a favor.
One af tha largest and smartest affairs
of tha week waa given out of doors a
lawn and porch dance at Fort Omaha by
Colonel and Mrs. William A. Olassford.
Tha a,utemeMle lend possibilities to the
picnic Hhat it never knew before, making
possible a day In the country or at almost
any desirable spot regardless of distance,
and tha automobile picnic occupies a place
near tha top en tha list of favorites.

ROGER PRYOR RECALLS OLD DAYS
Usperlenees of a Confederate Brlgav
dler Reronstraeted la the North
l.ewa In How to Grow
Old firacefally.
Roger Atkinson Fryor. one of the few re
maining brigadier generals of the confed
eracy and former Justice of the supreme
court of New York state, was yesrs old
July 19. He did not celebrate the event, re
fusing to look upon an SO-year-old man as
any sort of a person out of the ordinary,
but instead he indulged In reminiscences of
his long and varied life In chatting with a
reported for the New Tork Times.
Justice Pryor's home Is on West Sixty
ninth street. New Tork City. His librsry
window Juts out a good deal beyond the
frontage of most of the houses along the
street. It la shady In the afternoon, and
Justice snd Mrs. Pryor sit a good deal
there, among the Judge's books, with a
canary bird near by chirping gently, grow
ing gracefully old together. Mrs. Pryor,
too, is a Virginian. She was IS and he 20
when they were married at Charlottesville,
Va., on November 8, 1848. This November
they will have been married sixty years.
They are and have been, say their friends,
always Inseparable, and that Is the greatest
thing In Justice Pryor's ll(e.
First Worked on m Newspaper.
Justice Pryor was born on July 19, 182S. In
Dinwiddle county, Virginia, the son of Rev.
Theodorlck Bland Pryor, a stout Calvlnlstlo
minister, who believed In the Bible from
oover to cover, word by word, and literally.
His frame was aa stout as his faith and
from him Justice Pryor got his excellent
physique. Toung Pryor was graduated
from the University of Virginia and mar
ried In the same year, 188. And then he
went Into newspaper work.
"Ah! that Is fascinating, and I know
that I should still be in It and happy If It
hadn't been for what was accidental," he
went on. He was a Richmond editor and
he went In for politics. He was a delegate
to the Baltimore convention that nominated
Franklin Pierce to the presidency and was
appointed special minister to Greece by
him. And then he went to congress, serving
from 18M until the civil war.
"And after the war I wanted to get right
back In the newspaper business In Rtch-
mand," he said, "but on account of the
part I had taken In the war It was not
wise for me to engage In editorial work
down there."
So. Justice Pryor came to New Tork with
his family, his wife pawning her Jewelry
to pay the traveling expenses. Benjamin
Wood, publisher of The News, gave him
an editorial place after a time, but that
was done secretly, for It was not good
business policy to have a former confeder
ate general as editor even In the most
broadmlnded city In the country. Conse
quently the young man studied law.
It waa the civil war that made war's
changes the change In his life, and It Is
about those times that Justice Pryor's
memories are the most vivid. Coming out
Of the United States congreas, he became
a member of the provisional and the regu
lar confederate congresses. He was for
fighting, and he was the man who occas
sloned the war as much as any single man
could precipitate a catastrophe that had
been approaching for two decades.
Jefferson Davis did not want to attack
Fort Sumter. On April 10, 1861, Mr. Pryor
made a speech In Charlestown, S. C, which
forced President Davis to order the Fort
Sumter, attack. And when the Stars, and
Stripes came down from that fort the, war
was on.
"Davis didn't want to fight." said Jus
tice Pryor. fThere were a number of rea
sons why that was nstursl. He had been
educated at West Point, and It was ,hard
to take up aisns against the United States
army. He had many friends In the north.
He had been secretary of wsr also. Ha
stood a chance for the presidency of the
entire country, and besides all that he had
too much sense not to know that the odds
were overwhelmingly against the south."
Interpreting the surprise on the Inter
viewer's face, the old confederate general
and lawmaker went on. smiling a little:
"Oh, It was a good thing, after all, that
the union was saved. It was a good thing
for republican government good for the
north, good for the south. At this date I
am glad that the result was what It was.
"But the states had every right under
the sun at that Urns to secede If they so
desired, accordng to the organic law of
the land. Since the war that haa been uni
versally admitted. There Is not a law
professor In any Institution, north or south,
who does not admit that without hesitation.
It wasn't a question of law; It waa a ques
tion of self-preservation with the north,
and they fought for that preservation."
A Trlbatc to Sam Hoaston.
Then Justice Pryor began to talk about
Sam Houston of Texas, who wss In con
gress at the same time he was.
"A southerner himself, the child of
southerners, lie still opposed secession
and the war that wss surs to come,"
went on Justice Pryor. 'The Texas
people subjected him to the bitterest criti
cism for his stand on that question, and
he the man who had done ao much to
save Texas from Mexico, to mske It
Into a republic and then Into part of
the United States. He bore himself with
splendid dignity throughout It all, and
the sons of msny who bitterly criticised
this Texas hero now acknowledge that
he saw clearly even then what waa best
for his people."
Justice Pryor went Into the confederate
army himself In the yesr 161 as a
colonel. He was promoted to be a briga
dier general the following ear. In 14
and 1S86 he was a prisoner of war. At
the end of the war he had a ragged
uniform, a sword, and a wlte. His first
five years In New York were indeed

F. M. SCHADELL, 1522 Dogas st-
slender years. His wife taught music for
a little time, while ho wss trying to got
editorial work and preparing himself for
the law. He waa secretly the editor of
The Newb, as has been said, and mean
while was admitted to the bar.
The only two survivors now of the
thirty-sixth congress, which was sitting
at the time of the secession of the south
ern states, are Daniel K. Sickles and M.
Pryor. They were great friends In the
I'nlted States congress. One became a
major general In ths northern army,
the other a brigadier general in the
southern army. They met again In New
York after the war, and their friendship
became closer than ever.
Oeneral Sickles arranged a meeting b?
tween Governor Hill and Jfttlce Pryor,
w hen Mr. Hill offered the Virginian a Judge
ship of the court of common pleat, say.
Ing that he was doing It because Gtnerat
Silkies had so requested him. After the
end of his term he was elected to thu
bench, and when the courts were consoll
dated he became a supreme court Jjstlco,
a place which he held for many years.
Present Day Politics.
JuHtlce Pryor Is democrnt, as his
fsther was before him. He does not take
an active part In politics now. though he
keeps track of all that is going on In
either party. He refused to let himself
be druwn Into a discussion of the lvnver
snd Chlrsgo platforms, but he had a word
to say about the choice of the democrats.
"Charles A. Culb;rSon of Texss was
the man to nominate," he said, positively.
"With him the democrats would have
won certainly. He Is a thorough demo
crat, a tried executive, a deep student
of the law, and a man without a single
taint to his reputation. leslde that, he
la a southern man, and It la time the
democrats gavs the south ' a nominee
again."
Referring to Bryan, Justice Pryor said
thst he didn't believe a third canvass of
fhe country by him would help his lectur
ing business or his newspaper subscrip
tion list.
"I believe that there will be a revolu
tion of feeling agalnat him that will Mu
st roy his popularity as a lecturer ami
the popularity of his paper if he Is de
feated a third time," declared Justice
Pryor.
Being on the subject of presidents. Jus
tice Pryor took occaalon to say that
President Roosevelt was a broadmlnded
patriot. He wss much pleased with the
appointment of Qenersl Luke E. Wright of
Tennessee to be secretary of wsr. He
spoke about a southern woman, who once
wrote to Mr. Roosevelt telling hint how
surprised she was at a magaslne article
of his praising eonfederste brsvery. Mr.
Roosevelt answered, said Justice Pryor,
thst ha was half southern himself and ull
straight United States.
Though Justice Pryor Is M yesrs olj
today, he sits snd standa aa at might
as a shingle. His eyes are bright, and
Ms sight Is very good. His brow Is as
smooth as thst of most young men of
W. His hair, which falls to his shoulders
Is only tinged. He Is not at all thin
or worn; his face Is as heslthtly brown
as a seashore youngster's. His voles Is
still strong and resonant, and his philoso
phy of life, mellowed by numerous and
well-filled years, la gentle and true.
