Gresham's War Story.
Washington, June 7.?A touching
incident in the life of the late Secre?
tary Gresham is here related for the
first time. The evening before Secre?
tary Gresham was taken sick he met
Prevate Secretary Thurber at the Ar?
lington Hotel and invited him to walk
over to McPherson square, just across
the street from the hotel. They
strolled over to the park and sat down
upon a bench directly in front of the
equestrian statue of Gen. McPherson,
in whose honor the park is named.
McPherson square was a favorite re?
sort for Secretary Gresham in the
evening about dusk, and he frequently
sat there and related little incidents
of the comradeship that existed be?
tween MoPherson and himself while
they were in the war together.
On this particular evening, while
seated in his accustomed place before
the statue of his old commander, he
recited the thrilling circumstances of
McPherson's death near the city of
Atlanta. "McPherson," said-Secre?
tary Gresham, "had a nature as gentle
and kind as that of a lovely woman.
I shall never forget the last conversa?
tion I had with him, juBt after I was
wounded at Atlanta. I was in com?
mand of a division, and he was the
commanding general. I was lying
upon the ground wounded when Mc?
Pherson came up to me and inquired
the extent of my injury. As soon as
he discovered how badly I was hurt he
ordered his own surgeon to take charge
of my oase, and lie superintended the
arrangements for removing me from
the field and conveying me to the hos?
pital. I was always very fond of him
and he was like a big brother to me.
With his own hands he helped to place
me on the stretcher, and as we parted
he grasped my hand and said he would
look for my speedy recovery.
"I was carried down the road to a
little railway station, where the train
was to come along and take me to the
hospital. I was in terrible agony, and
the stretcher on which I was resting
was placed on the platform, right out
in the broiling sun. I think I must
have remained there for Beveral hours.
Finally a guard of our troops brought
a wooden coffin and placed it beside
my stretcher. I observed that the
officer in charge of the guard was a
member of McPherson's personal staff.
I knew the box contained a dead body
and I asked the officer in charge the
name of the victim. 'It is all that is
left of McPherson,' he responded,
sadly. I could hardly believe that
such a thing could be, for I left him
on the field but a few hours previous,
evidently in perfect health and confi?
dent of ultimate victory. It was a
terrible shock to have the dead body
of my dear friend and comrade thus
brought to me.^ I thought I would go
wild with anguish, and the pain from
my wounds increased with the excite?
ment under which I was laboring.
"Finally the train came along and I
was placed in a box car, with the dead
body of McPherson. The only other
occupants of the car were the officer
in charge of the body and an Irish
soldier. The only light was from a
tallow candle stuck-"? 'n-- bOT?bl ot
Ihe CkT. "j.ne surroundings were in?
tensely gloomy and I did not much
care whether I survived or not. I felt
as though I wanted to get into eternity
side by side with my old commander
and friend. The solemnity of the sur?
roundings were only relieved by the
constant efforts of the officer in charge
to try and keep the Irish sentry from
Soing to sleep. The poor fellow nod
ed and nodded, until finally the
officer became soenraged thathecuffed
him over the head quite sharply. In
spite of my pain and anguish I could
not refrain from laughing a moment
later when the sentry received another
sharp rap over the head and fell up
against the solitary candle and extin?
guished the light, leaving the car in
total darkness."
Secretary Gresham has always con?
tended that the humor of that occas?
ion asserted itself and saved his life,
for he was, up to that moment, in such
a morbid state that it is doubtful if he
could have lived through another hour.
He loved to sit in front of the bronzed
figure of McPherson and recall inci?
dents of their army life. The next
day Secretary Gresham was taken sick
at a Cabinet meeting and he never re?
covered. He was fond of anecdote
and he could always see the humorous
Bide of almost any subject. He was a
great student of human nature, and
some of his personal experiences with
office-seekers, especially applicants for
consulships, would make very amusing
reading.?Special to News and Courier.
The Wild Torkfy.
Every American has heard of these
birds, and not a few have seen them
hanging in the market stalls of the
large cities in some partB of the country,
while a much larger number have seen
them alive in all the glory of their
woody surroundings. And though he
had never seen one or helped kill or
eat one, I believe there is not an Am?
erican to day who is not proud of this
king of the forest. And well may we
all be proud of our wild turkeys, for of
all our useful birds it is the only one
domesticated and made to serve our
purpose to the fullest extent. Once
found along the Atlantic Coast, all
through the territory now known as
Mexico and the Central American
States, and in the great interior plain
of North America, the turkey in a
state of nature is to-day limited to the
mountainous regions of New York,
and Pennsylvania, Virginia, the Car?
olinas, Tennessee, a few in Kentucky,
some parts of the Gulf States, and
rare sections of the Western States.
Like all game, it is rapidly giving way
to the incessant warfare of dogs, guns
and hunters. The loggers go into the
forest, followed soon by the farmer
and his boys, and the poor turkeys
lose their right to the land and to their
claim on life. Thus it goes on all
sides, and it will not be many years
before they become almost as much of
a rarity as a wild buffalo ranging his
Western prairies. The habits of the
turkey have not changed much by do?
mestication. The bird has become
less shy and timid, but hardly less
watchful. It nests now along a fence,
or in a bunch of weeds, gras3 or briers,
where formerly it sought the most
secluded spots along the mountain
side. It roams with its young now in
the wheat stubble, through the growing
corn and over the mown meadows and
short-cropped pasture land, while its
wild sister scratches among the leaves
of the distant chestnut ridge, or gleans
among the open oak glades for food.
But although the first explorers of this
continent found the turkey domesti?
cated by some of the Indian tribes,
yet to this day many of the wild traits
show plainly in the common turkeys
of the farm. And these latter prob?
ably have no infusion of wild blood
for a hundred years or more in many
instances.
Wild turkeys in their native haunts
arc remarkably alert, cautious and
apparently possessed of a large share
of reasoning powers. It is something
wonderful, the manner in which they
elude the oldest and most experienced
hunters. My grandfather said that
the whole countryside of gunners were
out on the watch for a renowned albino
gobbler that ranged the hills along the
Alleghany River, in his young days,
and although the ppotless white bird
was frequently seen, on a bright
morning or evening, flying ; from
one hilltop to another, yet it was
two or three years before he at last
fell before the unerring aim of one of
my granduncles. And it was a source
of much chagrin to my youngest
brother, then a lad, not to be able to
locate Minnehaha's nest the first season
we had her. She was a full wild hen.
1 year old, obtained from the moun?
tains in Central Pennsylvania, and
was the beginning of our efforts at
crossing wild and bronze turkeys, to
improve the plumage and hardiness of
the latter. But watch and trail her
as he might, and with all the casual
assistance a half dozen brothers and
sisters could give him, our turkey
hunting expert could not find the
wild hen's nest until after the poults
were hatched and away. This, too, in
a place where the woods were in small
and isolated tracts. Early in the
spring the largest and strongest gob?
bler drives off the weaker ones and
assumes a royal charge of the flock of
hens about him. The young gobblers
meekly stay with the flock until it
breaks up for nesting; but any old
gobblers in the flock leave it at once
if they discover they cannot rule, and
live in solitude excepting that, attract?
ed by his beauty, or perchance out of
pity, or on account of some dislike for
the ruling gobbler, some hen consorts
with the banished bird and shares his
solitude. Again, two or three young
gobblers will be found together, living
in peace and plenty during the pleasant
summer months. The nests are made
exactly as the domesticated turkey's,
and the number of eggs laid by one
hen ranges from eight or nine to 18 or
20. The eggs are more thickly spotted
with reddish-brown dots and blotches
than those of tame turkeys or of all
other than bronze turkeys. They are
not as large as domestic turkeys' eggs,
yet-a nest is occasionally found with
eggs at large as White Holland eggs.
If the eggs are taken from the nest
and hatched under a domestic turkey,
the young poults will run off to the
forest as soon as hatched. This ex?
periment in domestication was fre?
quently tried by an uncle of the writer,
who passed his youthful days in the
midst of the finest wild turkey country
in this State.
But, although when compared with
large bronze, white Holland or Narra
gansett, the wild turkey may appear
small, its power to so re-enforce the
constitutional stamina of any turkeys
with which it is crossed, and thus
give progeny of superior size, is well
known to many turkey raisers, while
it is the only way of retaining the
brilliant marking so characteristic of
well-bred bronze turkeys. This fact
should be better understood.? George
Enty, of Pennsylvania, in the Orange
Judd Farmer.
Tillman as a Communist
Louisville Courier-Journal.
The advocates of a stable govern?
ment and sound money owe a debt of
gratitude to the South Carolina Sena?
tor for the speech he made at the
Memphis Convention. Every man
who spoke there, from Turple, of In?
diana, and Stewart, of Nevada, to the
noble pair of Populist brojthers from
-the two CaToiifi?s, "contributed to the
obligation; but it was Tillman more
than the others who showed the dan?
ger which threatens parties and men
when reason flees and passion takes
it place. It is a truism that a man
shall be known by the company he
keeps, and it is the same with conven?
tions. The Memphis assemblage con?
tained not only silver fanatics, but the
advocates of every other species of
demagogy. But the man who staked
his political existence on State mon?
opoly of the liquor traffic set the most
distinctive mark upon the delibera?
tions.
Senator Tillman is the more danger?
ous, because, unlike Turple and Stew?
art, he contents himself with asser?
tions and attempts no arguments. His
boastful declaration that he could say
things which no other man dared say
showed the gasconader conflict of his
power. Having attracted attention by
this silly braggadocio he launched into
the characteristic tirade of the dema?
gogue. It was all about the starving
people and the grinding plutocrats, the
gold bugs and " poor silver," the
Rothschild ring and the subservient
President, culminating in the threat
that when he and his colleagues got
into power they would confiscate all
property after it had reached a certain
figure.
No such another collection of freaks
and political desperadoes has been got
together in this country within the
last ten years as the one which has
just dispersed at Memphis. Fortun?
ately the good sense of the American
people will teach them to see the wolf
under the sheep's clothing. That
politician or political party that de?
pends for ascendency upon lying asser?
tions that this land of peace and plenty
is the home only of starving men and
grinding monopolists cannot long exist
in a country that supports common
schools and is dotted over with
churches. The far West and North?
west with their hordes of foreign-born
voters may countenance the agrarian,
but the South, where every man of
consequence is an American born and
with an American's patriotism and
knowledge that the Constitution is the
safeguard of the poor and lowly as well
as the rich and loftly, will not tolerate
communism.
What Education Means.
Exaggeration sometimes finds partial
justification in the fact that it gives
an emphasis which it would be diffi?
cult to otherwise produce. A western
college president in his address to a
recent graduating class told its mem?
bers that they might forget all they
had learned from their books during
their course and yet carry away with
them the chief fruits of their labor as
students. He was putting the idea in
the strongest possible light, yet there
was much truth embodied in his state?
ment. If the college graduates now
in the country could be assembled for
examination it would be found that
few outside of those who have made
teaching a profession, could pass the
examinations required before entering
the institutions from which they re?
ceived diplomas years ago. They have
forgotten Che facts of history and the
stories of mythology that they once
handled with the ready familiarity of
thorough acquaintance. They would
be little betterj,han novices in the
higher mathematics, and in attempt?
ing to "brush up" upon the classics
they would have much more use for
the lexicon than the text of the author
they were attempting to peruse.
But these acquisitions of knowledge
are not lost. The old lines of reason?
ing, thought and memory would soon
be found, and with brief study former
proficiency would soon be approxi?
mated. The vigor of mind and right
reason is not a dependent of mere
memory, and cannot be lost. These
qualities retain and have strengthen?
ed the capacity to think and in think?
ing to reject the specious for tho gen?
uine, to select from the confusion of
ideas that which has the sanction of
reason and to reject the heresies bred
of ignorance or dominant prejudice.
It is the development of the intel?
lectual powers that constitutes the
most valuable results of a liberal edu?
cation.
It is only the narrow utilitarian who
is forever asking what in the UBe of
this study or that. If mastered how
will it help transact business or ac?
quire a fortune? The young soldier
who endures the monotonou* repeti?
tion of drills day after day asks the
same question. He sneers at inspec?
tions, reviews and the unchanging
forms that impress him as little better
than silly. But as a veteran, when
he is seasoned as a campaigner, when
he has learned that his own life, the
lives of his comrades, the fate of an
army, the destiny of a nation, the very
course given to the forces of civiliza?
tion, may depend upon the promptness
and precision with which movements
are executed, he knows the advantages
of a military training. It fits him for
the duties of a soldier by teaching dis?
cipline and orderly methods. He may
go for years without the practical ap?
plication of his knowledge, he may
have forgotten the details of the man?
ual of arms and the drill, but once
uuder the voice of command bis edu?
cation makes him the soldier at whom
the raw recruit looks with envy.
The boy who leaves college may
never engage in another game of foot?
ball or baseball, never join in another
cross country race, never pull an oar,
spar, wrestle or enter a gymnasium,
but this will not render useless or de?
prive him of the grand physical devel?
opment acquired in the years when
bodily strength or weakness in the fu?
ture is so largely determined. He is
always stronger, more vigorous, more
daring and full of confidence. What
athletics has done for him physically
study has done for him mentally. He
knows how to use his intellect as be
knows how to use his muscles. He
may not be able to read his Homer or
to tell all he once knew about loga?
rithms, but he can think, reason and
use his mental powers in the acquisi?
tion of desired knowledge. He is a
trained mental athlete against the
awkward competitor who has less
strength and no scientific knowledge
as to how it can best be used.
% Milk m a Diet,
To the Editor of the Scientific Am?
erican : I recently tried the experiment
of living thirty days with only sweet
milk as a nourishment. At the be?
ginning I had no difficulty in changing
my diet from solid to liquid. During
the thirty days of the experiment I
lost five and on6-balf pounds in weight
but I lost no strength. I think that
I lost the weight because the weather
was warm, and because I took so much
exercise. I rode a bicycle consider?
ably during the time, and used 16
pound dumb bells and other heavy
weights every day (except Sundays).
I took much more exercise than I
usually take, as I was determined to
test the thing fairly. On the seventh
day of the experiment I ran several
foot races with a skillful runner, and
was beaten in each race. On the
thirtieth day I ran more races with
the same person, but did better than
in the first races. This fact proves
that I lost no strength. I took four
pints of milk daily for the first three
weeks of the experiment, and five
pints daily for the last week. I think
that a healthy person should take
about five pints of milk daily when no
other food is being taken. I dranj^
nwlk'after intervals^?""two hours
during the day, commencing at seven
o'clock in the morning and continuing
till ten o'clock at night. Then I
would take no more till the next morn?
ing.
My principal rea?on for trying the
experiment was to endeavor to estab?
lish the fact that persons convales?
cing from sickness may grow stronger
with no other nutriment than sweet
milk, and that they are not obliged to
take "something solid" to eat, as so
many people imagine. Many a con?
valescent has gone to his grave as a
result of overtaxing his weak stomach
by putting "solid" food into it. The
result of the experiment also shows
that the old belief that "bread is the
first essential of (human) life" is er?
roneous.
I believe that a man could live for
any length of time, and take heavy
exercise all the while, with no other
food than sweet milk.

Care For Founder.
A recent writer gives this remedy
for lameness occasioned by inflamma?
tory fever in the foot of the horse,
with the assurance that it is a perfect
cure.
"Clean out the bottom of the foot
thoroughly?hold up the leg so as to
bring the bottom of the foot upward,
holding it firmly in a horizontal posi?
tion and pour in, say a tablespoonful
of spirits of turpentine, if the cavity
of the foot will hold that much, if not,
pour.in what it will hold without
danger of running it over; touch the
turpentine with a red hot iron ; this
will set it on fire; hold the foot firmly
in position until it all burns out. Great
care must be taken that none runs
over on the hair of the hoof, lest the
skin be burned. If all the feet arc
affected, burn turpentine in each of
them. Relief will speedily follow, and
the animal be ready for service in a
short time.
It is affirmed that animals treated
in this manner have been promptly
relieved. In one case although suffer?
ing more than twenty-four hours when
applied, in less than an hour afterward
the animal was fit for use and traveled
some distance, all lameness disappear?

1 A MONTE CARLO EPISODE.
John Ball TVm Robbed, Bat Racceoded la
Gotting Ilia Money Bnclc.
A wrong1 at the tables has the curious
effect of turning tho most placid
philosopher or the gentlest lady into a
huhbling fury, and I havo seen a rich
man, who would give -one thousand
pounds to any out-at-elbows charity,
livid with rage at having a five franc
piece or his claim to some trivial pay?
ment disputed.
Some time ago I was staking an oc?
casional napoleon over the heads of the
crowd, and observed an enormous,
quite typical John Bull standing near.
Oh his other side was a tinj', shabby,
shriveled, toothless French woman; and
I felt the keen, shifty e3*es, with their
fcrrety red rims, meant mischief. The
man stretched out an assured hand to
secure a few louis paid for a successful
coup, but before be could possess him?
self of the money a greasy black kid
glove darted forth and quick as light?
ning tho gold pieces were dropped into
some mysterious personal recess. My
huge neighbor gave a gasp of surprise,
then a smothered bellow. Politely,
but with gathering thunder, he repre?
sented his rights, while the woman
vociferated, shrugged and swore away
hor little depraved soul in staccato
French. Tho croupiers patiently en?
deavored to judge between the rival
claimants and then tried to cut short the
dispute by proceeding with the game.
"Messieurs, fates vos jeu," oried the
automatic voice.
Meanwhile John Bull was turning a
slow, dull purple and seemed visibly to
swell. Leaning forward he possessed
hjmself of one of tho wooden rakes
from the table. ?'J'ai-Moe-Sla!" he ex?
claimed in stentorian tones that re?
sounded through the gold incrusted
palace; then, sharply rapping the old
woman over the shoulder, "Et cette
yiale Dam lar pree" (Bagged it under
my very nose), ho cried, lapsing into
the vernacular in an appeal for popular
sympathy.
. By this time the noise had attracted
loafers from all directions and crowds
?pushed eagerly to the scene of action.
Bill signed to me to slip through, but it
was easier said than done; however,
with his asssistance, I managed to es?
cape, and we loitered on the fringe of
the seething mob to watch the de?
nouement. The powerless croupier,
with a deprecatory shrug, turned the
! wheel, stakes were placed on the table
and play was resumed.
"Lar," said John Bull. "Thieving
devils. Prenez ca," and he flung a gold
piece into the revolving machine. The
croupiers cried "Coup Null" as the ball
fell into No. 8. Then, to add to the
complication, a wail of despair arose
from an unfortunate who had placed
twenty francs en plein on that number.
A babel of tongues arose and tho
croupiers, losing their heads, told off a
minute official to remonstrate with the
aggressive one. An impudent pygmy
tapped the giant on the shoulder, and
John, without even glancing round,
flapped his elbows and sent the little
man sprawling. The original offender
continued to protest like a screech owl,
and everyone offered advice amid an
indescribable melange of excited sound.
Then play was once more resumed.
The croupiers looked doubtfully, al?
most appealingly, at John; but that
magnificent person, who seemed to rev?
el in^thejstorm and ride triumphant
over the tempesTT flung a resolute five
franc piece into the revolving cylinder.
"Si vous poorez par me payer," he
shotted. "II faut fermay le boutique!"
I was -struck dumb at the celebrated,
the grandiose, the far-famed "adminis?
tration" being bluntly advised to shut
up shop. Shouts of "Prayer lei" rose
on every hand, and, with the fear of
Judge Lynch before their eyes, the
croupiers thrust the money hastily into
the Englishman's big fist.
"Now, you can ally au diarrble as
quick as you please, madam," said
John, coolly, pausing to wipe the pers?
piration from his bald and streaming
brow. "Great Scottl I thought noth?
ing but dynamite would have struck
the French out of me."?London World.

daring attempt to rob tbe Exchange
National Bank and which was doomed
to fall almost at its inception, occurred
at 1:40 to-day and as a result four men
are now under lock and key, three of
them with long terms at Canon City in
view. The bold scheme was hatched
about a week ago by Fred George, Ed
Hutch, Mike Kennedy and Robert Mc
Farland, and it was originally intended
that the raid should take place last Mon?
day, but for reasons unknown it was
postponed till to-day, and might in a
measure have been successful, had not
Hutch weakened and betrayed the scheme
to the Bheriff.
At 12:45, a very opportune time owing
to the absence of clerks and patrons,
George entered the bank with a gun
leveled at Assistant Cashier Heron,
quickly followed by Hutcb, who started
to go behind tbe glass partition. Cashier
fleron, who had been anticipating tbe
raid, immediately droppe.l behind the
counter, and pressed tbe electric burglar
alarm. Concealed in the bank were
Sheriff Frank Bowers and a number of
his deputies, all armed to the teeth, while
on the opposite side of the street and
and nearby were plenty of officers to
assist. George did not say a word and he
and Hutcb entered the bank with drawn
guus, but their actions were most signn
cant a^ most hostile. They, however,
were so quickly covered from all sides
by officer* with guns that they capitulated
without firing a shot, and any attempt to
escape on their part would have resulted
in being shot. Kennedy was stationed
outside to sound any danger warning
while M<:Farland was in charge of a fast
team of horses and a light wagon near
the side entrance of the bank ?n which
the robbers intended to escape after se?
curing the booty. The men are all resi?
dent? of Colorado Springs, and George,
who is supposed to be the leader, formerly
conducted a livery stable here.
? Suzanne Logier was a good actress,
but extremely stout. She was one night
enacting a part in a melodrama with
Taillade, the original Pierre of "The Two
Orphans," and this actor had at one mo?
ment to carry her fainting from the stage.
He tried with all his might to lift the
"fat" heroine, but although she helped
her little comrade by standingon tiptoe in
the usual manner, he was unable to move
her an inch. At this juncture one of the
deities cried from the gallery, "Take what
you can and come back for the rest."

A Singular Dnel.T *
Dr. Young, the well-known English
surgeon, was once in a partsdispleas?
ure with a few ladies going-jip by wa?
ter to Vauxhall, and he ?a?sed them
with a tune on the flute. ^Behind him
several officers were also in a boat,
rowing for the same pla.ce, and soon
came alongside his party. The doc?
tor, who was never conceited of his
playing, put up his flute on their ap?
proach, to.
One of the officers instantlyrasked
why he ceased playing, or putr-lttp his
flute.
"For the same reason," said he
"that I took it out?to please myself."
The sun of Mars very peremptorily
rejoined that if he didn't instantly take
out his flute, and continue his music,
he would throw him into the Thames.
The doctor, in order to allay the
fears of the ladies, pocketed the in?
sult and continued to play all the way
up the river.
During the evening, however, he
observed the officer by himself in one
of the walks, and walking up to him,
said, with great coolness:
"It was, sir, to avoid interrupting
the harmony of my company, or yours,
that I complied with your arrogant
demand; but that j'oumay be satisfied
that courage may be found under a
j.black coat as well as under a red one,
I expect that you will meet me\to-mor
row at a certain place without any
second, the quarrel being entirely en
tre nous." *
The doctor further convenanted that
the affair should be decided by swords.
To all these conditions the officer
assented.
The duelists met, but the moment
the officer took the ground, the doc?
tor pulled out a horse-pistol.
"What!" said the officer, "do you
intend to assassinate me?"
"No," replied the doctor; "but;you
shall instantly put up your sword and
dance a minute, otherwise you ore a
dead man."
"The officer began to bluster, but
the doctor was resolute and he was
obliged to comply.
"Now," said Young, "you forced
me to play against my will, and I have
made you dance against yours ; we are
therefore again on a level, and what?
ever satisfaction you may require I am
ready to give it.''
The officer acknowledged his error,
and the affair terminated in a lasting
friendship.

by the yard, but they can not walk it
by the inch.
