John B. Gordon Tells Thrilling Story of Eacape. N "A story of a close call,'.' said Gener- * al Gordon, as he leaned back in* his t officetchair'and looked musingly out t of the window. He had laid aside his 8 papers and for a few moments he sat quietly ; his head inclined slightly and c bis expression changing quickly as his e mind reverted to the stirring incidents 0 in a history in which he played eo large ^ a part. a In an instant his keen eyes and com- ^ manding features assumed the expression of a soldier and one could almost see him on his horse, the excitement of war before him and the prospect of immediate smoke and plenty of it. Then he smiled and said : j "Well, well, you wauta story of the war? I saw many moments during that four years when it looked as if my time had come, but possibly the narrowest escape I ever experienced was one spring evening shortly before the close of the war. "It was on the 6th of May, 1864, a day which will probably never be forgotten by many soldiers both in the Union and Confederate armies. "Shortly before dartc my command had assailed the right flank of Grant's army, scattering it into contused ae- = tachments and literally destroying Sedgewick's corps. Every commaua > on our front*, as my troops swept down 1 the line, was thrown into the wildest disorder and when night hovered over the two great armies the ranks of the 1 enemy were tangled into an almost I helpless condition. "The darkness grew deeper and olacker and the smofce of battle aided by the shadows of night made it utter- i ly impossible for my command to do more than grope its way through the heavy underbush of the wilderness, where the engagement had occurred. I "I saw that it would be necessary to ] halt for the night and I accordingly ordered one of my brigades to* cover our front as a skirmish and picket line until morning and instructed them to report to me its position at the earliest moment. "The inby blackness rendered more gloomy by the dense shade of the forest greatly impeded the progress of the brigade, and while they endeavored to get into position I began to grow p uneasy. Time passed and I heard nothing from them. My anxiety innfPRanri ear?h moment and finally real izing the danger of delay and restive under the suspense, I decided to persoually look into the cause of the delay. a "I took with me only one courier, William Beasly, who had enlisted from LaGrange. . "Silently and cautiously we began our ride toward the front. Neither of us spoke. Even the horses seemed to realize that much depended upon them and they walked almost noisIeBsly over the soft earth, avoiding every tree and liihb. "Suddenly without any premonition we fouud ourselves iu the midst of a large body of troops without alignment fj or definite formation, which I believed I to be my own brigade. "Not for a moment did I realize that I had missed the position of my own J command and ridden into the very r^idst of the blue coats. "Satisfied that I was among my own men and desiring to know how the officer in charge had gotten the troops *] into such a tangled condition, I cau- 0 tioned Beasley to make no remark o which would indicate my identity. ? "There was only the faintest twinkle a of a star in the heavens and according lv the color of their uniforms was not destinguished to my eyes. b "For several moments we stood, un- b decidedly, hardly knowing what course to pursue when Beasley, who bad ridden close by my side, leaned over to me and said in a whisper : I "General, these are not our men; they are Yankees." I "Hugh, Beasley,*' I replied. "That is nonsense. How could we miss the brigade, which, according to my order, should be here, and get ( among the enemy's lines?" A moment more we stood, aod then Beasley ceized me earnestly by the arm 8 and said: * "General, I tell you, sir, these are Yankees. I have just been looking at ? their coats and then at yours. I can plainly see that theirs are blue. "I again cautioned him not to speak. Our only safety now lay in turning ? our horses'heads slowly iu thedirec- ? tion of the camp and get on the outer ' edge of the men and then ascertain definitely whet her they were Union or Confederate soldiers. "I had scarcely breathed my order to Beasley when we were halted by three soldiers, who had evidently ' made the discovery that we had, and had learned that we did not belong to their side of the line. "When the words of the sentry rang f out over the slikuess of the night a i hundred men we: 3 ou their feet and , in a second's time we were surrounded by a body o''Union troops on every side. "I saw tbatf jr time had come, either to submic tv capture or to dare a most hazard? effort to escape. "As is ueui ily the case in such emergancies, the brain acts with lightning rapidity. In a few neconds I had weighed the narrow chance of escape. Simultaneously, however, there rushed throug my brain the horrors of prison life, and I resolved to take the risk. "It was a move which meant either liberty or instant death from fifty, possiabiy a hundred, bullets. I-decided to make the dash through and over the men who had gathered around us, < trusting to chance, wnicu sometimes | takes care of us when it seems least j possible. j "I was riding a magnificent horse, i which had but a few hours before been . captured by some of my troops, ridden s at the time, they said, by Qeneral I / ) 1 - * .*.1 . . , \ Shaler, of llie Union army, who had Been taken prisoner that day by my forces. My own horse had been disnb ed in the conflict of the afternoon, and in liia stead I had mounted this superb creature, who was both spirited stud active. "I threw myself down on bis side ind clasped the saddle with my left leg. Hanging in this position, with my left arm around his neck, and seizng his bridle near the mouth, I ca'led >ut, 'Come on, Beasley,' and before! he astonished soldiers, who had not \ ooked for any move so daring, could jollect themselves I had made one iwift bound. Beasley, who was a maglificent rider, followed my example. Digging our spurs into the sides of the mimaJs. we leaped forward with trenendous force, knocking down and jossibly trampling under the horse*' loofs the sentries who tried to interfere. "Instantly there was a solid roll of nusketry, but neither ourselves nor >ur horses were struck. "I did not even hear the whistle of i bullet, and I am sure that in the treat excitement of the moment these veteran soldiers of the Union army lad forgotten to aim, and had simply ired their rifles in the air, or were >erhaps unable to bring their guns to >ear on us on account of being so closey crowded together and in such large lumbers. "At any rate, we did not stop to investigate. We made good our escape vith no loss whatever except the trips of gray cloth which we left in he chinkapin and scrub oak bushes hrough which our horses rushed at uch furious rate. "I believe it was the narrowest esape from death that I ever experiencd or ever saw, and in thinking of tbe Id war times I sometimes wonder iow I ever made up my mind to do it, ,nd how, after all, both of us were not :illed in the attempt."

County Supervisor A, 0. Jan. 28,1901. How Do Yon Trent Yonr Sinter? It is tbe easiest thing in the world or a boy to be polite to some other felow's sisier. Then why is it that some )f them find it so hard to remember to .>e equally courteous to their sister? Vlaoy a boy is rude to his sister with 1 1 1 i ra a M it- m I *T\ /\f KaH ;ut reiuiy icau^iu^ iu , iu utuu wuiua, ae forgets to be polite. Then, again, ae is afraid of being dubbed "a sissy," f be should be caught paying some at:ention to bis sister. It is a bad habit for auy one to get into?that of saving jne's polite wayB for outsiders. If she asks you a question, don't answer her iu a rude or oarelessmanner, as f you thought she did not know what jhe was talking about, and wasn't ivorth listening to. Don't tease her, or make fun of her in any way to hurt her feelings. You wouldn't do tnat to some otner girl. You can just bank all you have >n the boy who is kind and :oughtful to his own, for you may je sure he will develop into the right sort of a man, aud is bound to win the respect and admiration of every one. And all this may be appropriately >aid of the attitude of girls towards ;heir brothers. PRIMARY ELECTION. | Tnestlay, Jnnunry 29, 1901. * Jan. I4tb, 1001. ?
