Curious Chaaco Shots. ? t" >r T.'.rxMj L. YV Jl> f ill XllVUUIV/UU Jb4U4W? Not far from this town, on the outskirts of a little village, lives Col. , an old Confederate veteran, who at the scenes related here rode as Captain at the head of a company in the Second Virgin a cavalry. He is known by all, loved by all and full of reminiscences which are very interesting, twice as much so from bis own lips, but enough so by themselves to deserve print. He was talking sometime ago and s i 1, "I've Doticed in the papers that | war correspondents are describing some chanty shot or other that is remarkable for its curious antics. Many&ch things happened in the tixtiesF; So many that we didn't no ~ "I tice them particularly and yet a few impressed themselves upon my memory. "In my company were two men, both fine, soldiers, named Andrew B. Bevil and William Hawkins. Bevil was a Yankee, who originally lived in Camden, N. J. He came to Lynchburg, just before the war and when it broke out he j )iued the forces of the South and fought as valienlly as any man that ever shouldered a gun. "He was a crack shot, iu fact, one of the finest sharpshooteis lever saw. He was rather reckless in exposing himself, however, and consequently came to grief from it. It was at Louisa court bouse just before the battle of Trevillian's Station, where I was wounded. Wo were skirmishing with some of Sheridan's calvary and were having a rather hot time of it. I was lying behind an old rail pile with Hawkins stretched out by my side, while Bevil was encounced in the chimney corner of aa old leg cabin that was standing near by. "I took a great deal of interest in watching him. He would stick one eye behind the chimney, level his gun, fire and drop back and you could be jast as certain that death followed that shot as you could be of the sun's rising. Finally, however, a Yankee sharpshooter caught sight of that eye and the next time it appeared sent a bullet into it. The bullet literally tore his skull all to piece?, came out of his bead, went skirmishing around and finally carao out at his hip. "We carried him back to the rear to be buried but finding some signs of life in him sent him to the hospital. ' About thirty minutes afterward Hawkins jumped up and caught hold of his thigh and yelled, "there's a sixty day's furlough here, Capo," a bullet coming through the rail pile and penetrating his thigb, not breaking the bone, though, but iufiicling an innocent looking flesh wound. I signed a paper giving him his furlough and rather more pleased than otherwise he limped back to tbe rear. "A few days afterward I went toil-. i ii_i j ice nospnai auu tut; uuict suigiuu met me and said, 'Look hero, one of your men died last night/' 'Who?' said I. 'Hawkins,* he replied. 'Hawkins,' I exclaimed, 'why I thought you were talking about Bevil. 'Oh,' said he, 'he's goiDg to get wel),' and so it turned out. It appears that the bullet that went through Hawkins' thigh carried a piece of flannel cloth down to the bone: this eventually produced gangrene which killed him. Bcvil recovered and is still plying his trade of carpentering in his adopted home, Lynchburg. "Another rather remarkable incident occurred at Ashland the day before the fight at Yellow Tavern. A Yankee company charged straight down upon Col. Munford's regiment and as they did I took them in the flank. There was with Munford a sharpshooter named Foster and with me a sharpshooter named Rucker. There was a slight rivaly between these two and we never could decide who was the better shot, though I think if anything it rested a little with Rucker. In this charge the Yankee Captain was moi tally wounded and after it was all over I found Foster and Rucker disputing as to who killed him. "I told them it was no use disput iDg but as they persisted I held a sort of court to settle it. Foster was the first to speak up. He was directly in front of the fellow an 1 ho said, "if I shot him he is hit in the left breast, that's the spot I aim at.' Ruekcr, At that time I lived in Piedmont, but thirty years afterward I moved j to Ashland. Thinking one day about i the above incident I began to look around and have now fully-decided that I fought that day in a field that j was thiity years afterward to be the front yard of my home." Here the old veteran who has j turned his sword into a pruning hook ! of peace about as thoroughly as any man could branched into the discus- ' sion of the laws relating to commercial fertilizers and carnage and slaughter had to take a back seat. ? who was on his flank, 'he came down the file carrying his sword aloft in aafiQanaBaEsnMeaG3HHE9MMMuMMi&!9uaK ris right hand, I sbot him. be is wounded in bis right side." We removed the coat of the officer and found the bullet holes, one in the left breast, the other in the right side, as either sbot would have knocked him out of his saddle it is more than probable that both fellows fired at thesametime, either shot would have been fatal. A Narrow Escape. TbaLkful words written by Mrs. Ada E. Hart, of Groton, S. D. <kWas taken with a bad cold which settled on my lung?; cough set in and finally terminated in consumption. Four Doctors gave me up, saying I could live but a short time. I gave myself up to my Savior, determined if I could not stay with my friends on earth, I would meet my absent ones above. My husband was advised to get Dr. King's New Discovery, for consumption, coughs and colds. I crave it a trial, took in all eight bottles. It Las cared me, and thank God I am saved and now a well and healthy woman/' Trial bottles free at'J. E. Kaufmann's drug store. Regular" size 50c and $1.00. Guaranteed or price refunded. As a World Power. The most momentous event of the century, since the peace of 1815 was concluded, seems likely to be the entrance of a seventh great power in the field. The Uuited States are evidently determined to take their place as an Asiatic, an insular and oceanic, and practically a European power. They can do so only by becoming a great naval and a consider able military power. It is in vain to appeal to the traditional maxiums of Washington and the statesmen who followed him?maxims which have hppn rpnpTited and are still repeated in a rather mechanical way. The principle of organizing a New World, almost independent, as it were, of the Old, and of avoiding entanglement in the complexities of European policy, was intelligible in the days when steam had not bridled the ocean and electricity had not made communication instantaneous, and the vast uusettled districts of America afforded a more than adequate scope for American enterprise and industry. Now it is an anachronism. The United States are, so far as time and facility ol communication are concerned, practically as near to some parts of Europe as eastern and western Europe are to each other, and they are nearer to the eastern Arehipeligo, in which apparently they seek to obtain a footing, than the Eurcpeau states which already hold possession there. In competing with ether states for the commerce of the world, they will need stations in which their trading ships can take refuge, aDd can supply themselves with coal, and provision themselves. They will further need cruisers to protect their commerce and to guarantee the safety of the seas. Their vast resources will make the burden of expenditure light upon them. An army almost on the European scale might be supported on the sums annually wasted on profligate pensions that is, in coiruption to an extent beyond contemporary example, even historic precedent. * ? t it it i_ JLDe lour Dig vessels, me Aimirauie Oquendo, Cristobal CoIod, Infanta Maria Teresa aod Vizcaya, cost about $3,0G0,000 apiece. Teu other ves sels, at least, have been destroyed or captured, which cost at a low averege about "$GoO,000 each. That gives a total loss of $18,000,000 in vessels alone at the lowest estimate. Spanish newspapers say that the loss of Cervera's fleet caused a money loss of $20,000,000. Eczema! The Only Cure. Eczema is more than a skin disease, and no skin remedies can cure it. me doctors are unable to effect a cure, and their mineral mixtures are damaging to the most powerful constitution. The whole trouble is in the blood, and Swift's Specific is the only remedy which can reach such deep-seated blood diseases. Eczema broke out on my daughter, and continued to spread until her head was entirely covered. She was treated Hrar by several good doctors, *{ > aSi^Sr, but grew worse, and the V7 |j| dreadful disease spread to her face. She was celved no benefit. Many patent medicines were taken, but without result. until we decided to try S. S. S.,and by the time the first bottle was finished, her head !*>gan to heal. A dozen bottles cured her completely and left her skin perfectly smooth. She is now sixteen years old. and has a magnificent growth of hair. Not a sign of the dreadful disease has ever returned. H. T. Shore. -T01 Lucas Ave., St. Louis, Mo. Don't expect local applications of soaps and salves to cure Eczema. They reach only the surface, while the disease ^ comes fmnt within. Swift's Specific S.S.SJfte Blood is the only cure and will reach the most Obstinate ease. It is far ahead of all similar remedies, because it cures cases which are beyond their reach. S. S. S. is purely vegetable, and is the only blood remedy guaranteed to contain no potash, mercury or other mineral. Books mailed free by Swift Specific Company, Atlanta, Georgia. What Ho Was Looking For. A tramp applied for food at the house of a suburban agriculturist re- 1 cently, aDd while he wss eating the rations that had been furnished at his solicitation, he was asked: "Why do you not go to work!"
