Among others, he im ifcd a cow belonging to au old D( Juin) Arnold. This was about ! last piece of property that prc as depredations bud left the old D aud her milk was almost the Iv ns" ii ree left bim and his daugh . fur food. The next morning er (be loss of tbe cow Mitts e Arnold, thc daughter, went to D. Kelly's headquarters aod ap Bed to him for the release of tho Gen. Kelly turned around in chair, and, in his uioct pompous oner, said: "Miss Arnold, this re linn ntiu>i ho crushed !" liss Arnold, with eyes flashing and akimbo and defiance in her atti e, replied: "Gea. Kelly, if you ok jun can crit.-h this rebellion by ?Ii?;! tdd John Arnold's cow, just aJlurand bc d-di" he (int thc cow. isa (b ernia regiment was about to let a bat ile which threatened to bc irp and bloody, the coluncl, very e, rode along the line, and as he ?sed, one of hin captains looked up remarked: "Colonel, you are as |e a? death.

"No, 8?r," replied the old general; "the mao that whipped Stonewall Jackson never lived; but I have the honor of saying that I gave him a ? drawn fight at Ker nato wu; and no other mau can wake as proud a boast." j * And yet, dear Veteran, our histories tell ?B, and our sons and daughters aro taught to believe, that Shields j whipped Jackson at Ker os town. Who ; should know botter than Geo. 8hields himself ? Tho General thou went on to illus trate tho feeling that existed between worthy foeiueu by saying that on one occasion, a year or two previous to this conversation, he was taking a party of 'rienda to see a circus. As there was a great crowd around the ticket wagon, he concludod that ho would try paying at the door of tho tent. As they approached the en trance, ono of the party happened to address him as "Geo. Shields." A ouc-armed, military-looking mao, who was taking the tickets, looked up quickly and said : "Are you the Gen. Shields who fought in tho Valley of Virginia?" "1 ara, sir," replied the General. "Pass in with your party, General : you can't pay a cent hero." "Thank you, my friend," said the General. "I see you have lost an arm. I presume you were ooo of ray soldiers in the Valley." "Well,'no, not exactly, General; I wat the next thing to it, though; I was one of Stonewall Jackson's men." No series of anecdotes of the war would be. complete without some which display the wit of the Irish man. During one of thc battles in the earlier part of the war a line of troops waa lying down waiting for the proper moment for action. Bullets were flying rather fast overhead, and an Irishman was observed by ono of his comrades holding his hautl as high in the air as he could reach. "What are you doing there, Pat?" asked another. "Bedad, and I'm faling for a fur lough." Just then a bullet grazed his hand, and he said: "BVjabbers, I've got i !" Another bullet struck him in the wrist before he could fairly get his hand down. "Ooh! Begorra! and I've got thirty days extinsion." During another battle the firing had become so hot that some of the men concluded they had very urgent business in the rear, aud among them was ao Irishman. His captain noticed him starting for the rear, and com manded him to comeback. Pat paid no attention to this, but kept OD. Thc captain drew his pistol and threatened to fire if he did not stop. The Iri>hman, without stopping, looked back over his shoulder, and yelled: "Shoot and-! What is one bullet to a bucketful?" ?very one agrees that discipline is absolutely essential in an army, but in the Confederate army some of our soldiers had a queer idea of discipline. While the private soldier would obey his officers commands with the Utmost exactness, he never for a moment ac knowledged the superiority of the offi cer socially. He would fight Uko a hero and work like a stevedore, but he never gave up or forgot his man hood. On one occasion Gen. Cheat ham found one of his men, an Irish man, committing some aot of which ho did not approve. He reprimanded him in the-most forcible manner, aud, in fact, it is said that tho language used was io foroibie that tho air turn ed a beautiful cerulean hue. When he stopped to get his breath, the Irishman said: uBedad, Gineral Cheat ham! if you wasn't a gineral, you wouldn't talk to me that way." Goo. Cheatbam was like the hero of Conan Doyle's novel, tho "White Company;" he was always willing and anxious to accommodate any gentle man who was looking for trouble. Ile pulled off his coat and threw it on the ground, maying : "Th?re HOB Gen. Cheatbam, and here is Old Frank. Now pitch in." The .Irishman did pitch in, and it is related that for once in his life Old Frank didn't get the best of a fight. Botas memory carries us hack to those da yr and we are reminded of thc soul-stirring scenes through which we passed, of tho light hearts with which we marched, tho jests of the bivouac, wo cannot help also remembering that our mil call is every year decreasing; that "taps" have been sounded the last tithe foremost of that gallant anny. >I-.iy their "reveille" have been pounded in a world where they huve mot a rich reward for their many vtrt.?cs! -.^ t Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy can always be de pended upon and is pleasant and safo to uko.- Sold by Hill-Orr Drug Co. This Bay Hud Fighting Blond. H. Irving Hancock coo t ri bute* a J tale of the capture of Santiago, en ; titled "Chuggins, the Youngest Hero With the Artuy," to the November St Nicholas. It is a story of a boy whose various ancestors had served io all of the American wars. The fight ing blood itt him was too strong to be resisted, and he finally made bis way to Cuba with the American troops. Hero is what he saw at Las Gu?simas, where the Bough Bider* got their first . taste of war. if there were bullets flying now, he did not know it-did not stop to think of then), but spurted over the rough, uneven road, full of the idea that he was to fire a few more idiots for that g-illant young soldier behind. Ii was strange how completely that idea dbut out any other thought. Now the fir- ? iug rang louder than ever; there were oheers mingled with it. Chuggius came in sight of an irregular mass of j men ahead. They were charging : through the jungle sud under the treehi, fiting aB they ran. At a quick, I sharp command, they lay down, but i kept on firing. Panting, Chuggius I rao among them, unnoticed, throwing ' himself upon the ground betwecu two of the men. Through the trees ho caught just a glimpse of little brown men in blue and white uniforms that looked very much like bed-ticking. They were firing at the Rough Hiders as fast as they could work their guns, while the Americans were giving rather more than they received. Chuggius had no time to seo wheth er meo were being bit around him, but he knew that the hiss and chug of bullets all about him was some thing terrifying, and be had time to bc afraid. For a few moments he shook as if with ague. It was the thought of that dead soldier's face, with the lips trying to say ''Hurrah!" that made a Sperry of him again. Pushing the carbine out in front of him, trying to see the blue-and-whitc uniforms through the forecast, Chug gins began to fire. It was amazing how quickly that magazine was empt ied ! Now the Rough Riders were up and yelling again. Onward they dashed, and the boy went with them. lu the ru!-h he was left in the second line; I but just as he finished slipping in the five fresh cartridges, he reached the front rank again, flo fired ahead, be cause the rest did; but it took him longer to empty the magazine now than it did when lying dowu There was a spirited scurrying, a wild hur rahing, and the Spauiaids had fl. d Now, when men began to breathe again, and rest, and look about for comrades, they espied Chuggius, or rather noticed bim, for the first time. Certain of the officers were among the most curious. One of them strode swiftly over to the boy's side, rested a strong hand on his shoulder, and looked down inquiringly into his face. Something in the mao's features look ed familiar. Chuggins remembered a portrait that he had seen in the news papers. "You're Mr. Roosevelt, aren't you?" he asked. "Yes, my lad; but who are you ?" "Name's Sperry, sir. Striker for Lieutenant Hansel," Chuggins breath lessly explained. "How came you herc ? Where did you get that gun ? What are you doing with it ?" Colonel Roosevelt did not look cross, but he plainly meant to have thc whole story. So Chuggins told it briefly, dwelling on the dead soldier whose lips seemed trying to cheer. "I felt sure he wouldn't mind my taking his gun, if he could only say so, sir," wound up the young nar rator. "Fact is, I think he'd have been glad to have mo put in a few more shots for him. and I'm glad I did." "Weren't you scared, Sperry?" asked Colonel Roosevelt, bis face softening. "Awfully, for a little while, but it .wore off," carno the candid reply. Colonel Roosevelt looked at him thoughtfully. He knew that such a mere boy had no call or right to be on the firing-line, but such deeds and reasoning as Chuggins offered must perplex a lover of heroes; so he said as had the Sergeant at Siboney : "Sperry, I don't know what to say to you." Just then someone called the Co lonel away, and Chuggius wandered about in tho regiment. He stayed with the troops -after that, first with one regiment and then with another, getting farther and farther, to the front os the army advanced, going back to Siboney only when some offi cer had a message to send. That lifo just suited thc boy. There was al ways room for him at night in some Mpuphouse," as tho soldiers call their little sbeltcr-tents. tie never lacked for a meal, helping in all the odd chores of camp life that bc could. Tho gun that he tined ut Las Gu?si mas he had given up, and thus bcoamo an ordinary camp-follower again. Insure you?* health in Prickly Ash Bitters.

Just below the stone fort at Caney, sitting in the middle of a pineapple field, I came upon a pitiful eight-a soldier sitting on the ground, holding in his lap the head of a poor fellow who was literai?y shot to pieces. One bullet had gone through his head, an other through his lungs ami chest, tearing a horrible hole, from which the blood poured at every breath. Ile was almost deud, and every breath souuded like the noise made hy pour ing liquid from a bottle, und his com rade kept the flies from his face, that was clotted with bhiod and dir , and waited. Occasionally, when the poor fellow would groan u bit louder than usual, the friend would change the' dying mau s position, but he held him as still us he coul I. .'Don't suppose there's a surgeon about?'' he inquired, as 1 stopped. I told him there was not uow, but would be later. "Well," he remarked, quietly, "don't suppose they could help him. He's 'bout gone, I reckon." The breathing became weaker and the gurgling fainter and fainter as thc grayish pallor began to show through the sweat and dirt and blood, and, finally, without a tremor, breathing ceased. Tho soldier held his burden a moment until he saw the end had come, and then laid his handkerchief over the ghastly face and gently let tho head down to the ground, and slowly got np. "Know him ?" I asked. i;My brother," he calmly said. And then he filled his lungs with one, long, deep sigh and gazed off to the hills for a moment with a fur-away, thoughtful look, and I could see that ho was looking straight into some home and woudering what mother would think.
