HOW THEY FOUGHT THEM. War of To-day and Tears Back. It was at the breakfast table that Mr. Soott Lindsay a veteran of the real war, read something about the battle of San Juan and began to breathe heavily through his nose. "Great grief, mother!" he exclaim ed, looking across the table at his wife. "Here's something that'd make old Gen. Sherman turo over in his grave. They've goin' to celebrate the anniversary of the battle of San Jewan! Thunderation. The battle of SanJewan! Battle! Gosh, all flaoh hoods! Battle! say, if the old boys that 'uz with the army o' Tennessee ever started to celebrate the anniver sary of every durned little popgun skirmish like that battle o' San Jewan we wouldn't do nothin' but celebrate, day in and day out, from one year's end to another. We'd have to get up in the night and aunyverserate. Bat tle! Battle nothin' ! Wy round Vicks burg there we used to roll out in the mornin' an' fight three or four o' them battles just to whet out appetites. We didn't call em' battles though. We knew the difference between a battle and a strawberry festival. I went out rabbit shootin' several times last winter, you may recollect. Well, I didn't never come back and say I'd been in a battle, did I?" "Oh, well father, you must make some allowences," said Mrs. Lindsay. "These boys don't remember the other war." "I guess they don't-I just good an' guess they don't. If they did they wouldn't be spoutin' so much about bein' heroes an' all that. There's a blamed, sight o' difference between chasin' some runt or a dago with a white feather in each and chas in' a six foot Johnny Beb that jest raises up on his hind legs and comes at yow like a runaway horse, breath in' smoke out of his no&o and ears, 'y Gory, an' yellin' like an Injun. It's easy enough to chase anything that runs the other way, but this hero job's got its drawbacks wi en the other fellow gets it into his heid that he wants to do the chasin' an' swoops out o?the woods like an Ioway cyclone, by gosh, pumpin' lead into you till you get too heavy to run. Battle! When we had 'em stacked up until we couldn't see over 'em 'an every regiment 'uz.whittled down to a com pany an' our flags 'uz blown into car pet rags au' the blood got so deep it wet the ammunition in the wagons we used to begin to suspect we'd had a battle. Somethin' a little less argy mentative than that we called a skir mish. Anything the size o' the San Jewan basket-meetin' we didn't keep no tally of at all. That kind o' come under the head o' target practice!" "I wouldn't be too hard on em fath er. They say these boys fought real well down there in Cuba!" "Well, to see 'em struttin' around down-here in their cowboy hats and gassin' in front of every store you'd think, by cracky that every one o' them had chawed up a thousand o' them Spanish generals, whiskers and all. You take some old codger that crawled through them swamps fer four years, dodgiu' minnie balls and noth in' to keep him alive but hardtack an' hot slough water au' he ain't in it no more with one o' these cussed little whippersnappers, by ginger, that well, you ought to hear old Cap Nes bit the other night, after post meet in'. He made a few remarks about these kid soldiers that wouldn't pass mastuerin a crowd o' women, but they wuz satisfyin to me." "I don't see why Cap Nesbit wants to pick onto those boys. I think they deserve a lot o' credit for enlist in' an goin' down there in that hot country to fight." "Englistin's all right an' fightin's all right, if you do it. I don't beg grudge no man the cridit o' going out an' fightin' for his country. These boys done well as far as they went, bat I don't want no kid to tell me What war is until he's been through One. These young fellers got a sniff 0* blood and now they think they've been through the slaughter house. There's old Dan Bailey that got shot Bo often he din't mind it at all toward the last; laid in Andersonville till he was a rack ofjbones; comes home here lookin' like a corpse and ain't seen a well day since, and he ain't as big a man in this town to-day as that grand son o' his that went down there to Porto Rico?last winter an' laid in a hammock for six months smokin' cigarettes. He's what they call a hero now-had an ice cream reception for him when he come home, didn't they? I don't recollect that anybody had ice cream receptions for old Dan when he com? home. Heroes wuzn't quite so g08h-danger scacre about that time. They used to ship 'em herc ty the car load an' most of 'em went right on through town an' on to the graveyard. Wuzn't it you, mother, that wuz read in' the other day about some regiment that wouldn't get on the train becuz there wuzn't no sleepers. Great Je hosephat! I'd like to see somebody ask old Col. Griggs for a sleepin' car. I'd like to hear what he'd say. Sleep in' cars! We wu?? tickled to death to get box cars, cattle cars-anything on wheels. We didn't need no p >rter to brush, our cloze, for the darned good reason that we didn't have no close to brush. Then there's all that talk about em bammed beef. We'd a been mighty glad to git it-embammed, petrified, mouldy or any other way. We thought we wuz lucky if we could get a little hunk o' salt pork to drop in with the beans now aD* then. We wuzn't out on no moonlight excursion, by gosh playin' tag with a lot o' tam bourine players. We wuz out in the underbrush, dad ding my buttons, bavin' it out wit the toughest lot o' human panthers that ever wore uni forms. An' yit, like as not, if we go to breakin in on this San Jewan cele bration, we'll git a back seat in the gallery. We ain't heroes, I guess. Wy, on Decoration day these kids marched in front every one of 'em puffed up like a toad in a thunder storm-bigger man than old Grant, as thc feller says. Now, they're goin' to celebrate the annyvcrsary of San Jewao. There was another likely skirmisy about the same date. Get tysburg, I think they called it. Won der why somebody don't celebrate that. Uah!"-Chicago Record. Shatter's Coban Pullet. In Gen. Shaffer's quarters at San Francisco is a fine, glossy, "black Spanish" pullet, which, if it had the power of speech, could tell a thrilling and pathetic story. Early in July, 1898, when the American army in Cuba was supplying-food to the starv ing reconcentrados at El Caney, a ter rific storm wronght such havoc to thc roads that it became impossible to convey further supplies to the town. Gen. Shafter therefore issued an or der that all who were able might walk to his camp, six miles away, and draw rations. The order set in motion one of the saddest processions tliat everfollowed in the wake of war. Hagged, hungry, weak, emaciated, a line of spectres daily wound its awful length through swamp and mud and jungle toward the food. Lieut. Brooke and an interpreter were returning to camp from El Caney one day when they saw a little band of the reconcentrados ahead of them. Behind the men and women lagged a six-year-oideboy. He was evidently sick and weary unto death, but still he tottered persistently on. At length, his last-ounce of strength gone, he fell and lay there in the mud, unable to rise. His father and moth er glanced back at him stolidly and went on. Their own strength would be hardly sufficient te carry them to carrp and suffering had dulled their sensibilities. If he could not keep up he must die where he fell. Lieut. Brooke dropped from his horse, picked the little fellow up aud galloped into camp with him. There he fed him until he could eat no more, wrapped him in warm blankets and left him to the long, dreamless sleep of exhausted childhood. An old Cuban woman washed his little cotton shirt and trousers and, after a few days' rest, he was sent back to El Caney with a generous supply of provisions. Two days later the little fellow, still weak and pale, again appeared in camp. Going straight to Lieutenant Brooke, he took a small chicken from inside his little shirt and, with tears in his eyes, presented it. It was the only thing he could give him, he said, to show his appreciation of the senor's kindness. He had walked all the ?way from El Caney through the deep mud aod after he had made his humble present he walked back. Lieut. Brooke took the chicken to Gen. Shafter and told its story. Thc General tethered it to his tent pole. When he entered Santiago he took the bird with him. There her nightly roost was a glided chandelier in the Governor's palace. When thc .army moved out to camp again the chicken went too. Later she journeyed to Montauk Point, thence to Governor's Islacd, and now she struts and scratches, and cackles contentedly in San Francisco, a living reminder of a deed of mercy, a pathetic acknowledg ment of the gratitude with which at least one little reconcentrado will al ways recall las Americanos. A Witty Blind Man. A showman was making a great noise at the front of his exhibition of the wonders he had to show. A man stand ing in the crowd, with a little boy be side him, cried out: "I'll bet you a sovereign you cannot let me see a lion." "Done," said the showman, eagerly, "put up your money." The man placed a sovereign in thc haud of a bystander and the showman did the same. "Now, walk this way," said the showman, "and I'll soon convince you. There!" said he, triumphantly, "look in that corner at that beautiful Numidian lion."' "I don't see any," responded the other. "What's the matter with you?" ask ed the showman. . "I'm blind," was the reply; and in a few minutes the blind man had pocketed thc two sovereigns and went Suicide. Most of us would be astonished to knowhow many of the people who are walking about and eating and sleep ing, talking and working in every com munity have committed suicide. By Divine and human law and the general verdict of society the sawe man who takes his own physical life has committed a crime. The act is re garded as cowardly, for it is flight from the burdens and responsibilities and suffering which are the common lot of man. Yet there is a cowardice baser than that of the man who lays violent hands on himself, and suicide even more criminal. This is the moral suicide of the man who gives up, sur renders, abandons his hope and pur pose. The temptation to this suicide is constant and strong. It is so easy to stop, so hard to go on, so easy to per suade ourselves that thc obstacles can not be overcome, that thc loads are be yond our strength, so hard and painful to struggle forward. When we have struggled against a siu or a weakness and have fallen u/ider it time after time, it is easy to tell ourselves that we have done all wc could, that it is us?less to resist futhcr, just as it is easy for the man beset by troubles and disasters to seek to end them all with his own life. When we have fought and striven for a purpose on an ambi tion, and have strained every nerve and found our plans come to nothing, the tired soul and the discouraged heart cry out for rest and join in thc demand for the inglorious sloth of sur render and suicide. Therefore legions of men yield, and while yet physically alive are morally dead because they have consented to a slavery to sin to abandon hope and to drift with cir cumstances. A profound philosopher who wrote a great novel said that thc greatest horor of suicide to him was that the awfully enlightened soul might, im mediately after its-enfoicod flightfrom the body, come to know that thc net that drove it forth was unnecessary, that the moment next following would have brought rescue and relief. In that thought there is the wisdom cf an eternal truth. No man can know wh it is before him. The hours hurry to us in an endless procession and we do not know what that one uext beyond us may be bringing us. Because that is true every suicide is folly, every surrender is a premature and unneces sary act of cowardice and weakness. The days of miracles arc past, but the unexpected and unforseen con tinue to happen. There is always rea son to hope and to try because wc do not know7 what the future so fast be coming the present may hold. When we have given up and have committed suicide by telling ourselves that strug gling and effort are useless, and by ceasing from both the opportunity that may come can not help us. It is our duty to hold to our faith in ourselves, to keep to our purposes, examine ourselves honestly, laying bare our hearts and reviewing lives with careful impartiality-which many of us live to old age and die without the courage to do even once. We will usually find that wc really have not done the best we could, that we have not used all our strength and capacity. It is never, too late to try again, to go again at thc obstacles, to struggle again with the burden. The first and the hardest fight is always, of course, with ourselves and our own shortcomings and faults. We can al ways fight them; and as we lop them off or beat them down the external obstacles will look easier, thc loads will lighten. In no case has any man the right to abandon hope or to relinquish purpose. When he says that he can not bc bet ter than he is and ceases from trying to be better he is a moral suicide, a coward and a weakling. When he abandons his purpose or hope or ambi tion he simply abandons the fight with himself and kills his higher in stincts and qualities that his baser and weaker elements may j revail over 1 ! him.-Greenville N'?tes. Irish Wit. Two navvies, ill-clad, dirt covered, rain-soaked, got possession of a heav enly nook between two high stone walls while an extra heavy sleet show er prevailed. They had "hunkered" low, and were watching the smoke wreaths mount from their pipes. "I'm toul," said one of them, break ing a reverie, "I'm toul, Jamie, that thc King of Jarminy uiver smokes." Both regarded the wreaths again for a minute in silence. "Poor man! I Wouldn't like to be him, Larry-would you?" Betty Haran of Thrummou was a very pious old Methodist. Father Dan often dropped into Betty's for a gossip. "Betty," said Father Dan, "I always find you stuck in your Bi ble. Now, tell mc truly, do you un derstand it all?" "Of course Ido," indignantly. "Well, well. I've been studying it all my life, and I don't understand it all yet." "An' if yer ( reverence is a blockhead, do ye think every wan else like ycr'sclf?" ?

Papa (at the breakfast table)-Wil lie, my boy, why ?ire you looking so thoughtful? Are you not feeling well? Willie (very seriously)-Yes, papa; but I had a strange dream this morn ing. Papa-Indeed? what was it? Willie-I dreamed, papa, that I died and went to heaven, and when St. Peter mot mc at the gate, instead of shewing me the way to the golden streets, as I expected, he took me out into a larg0 field, and in the middle of thc field there was a ladder reaching away up into the sky and out of sight. Then St. Peter told me that heaven was at the top, and that in order to get there I must take thc big piece of chalk heggave mc and slowly climb the ladder, writing on each rung some sin I had committed. Papa (laying (IO?TU his newspaper) And did you finally reach heaven, my son? Willie-No, papa; for just as I was trying to think of something io write on thc second rung, I looked up into the sky and saw you coining down. Papa-And what was I coming down for, pray? Willie-That's just what I asked you, papa, and you told mc you were going for more chalk. Moncra! Lee's Way. Soon after General llobert E. Lee went to Lexington, Va., he was offer ed the presi ?ency of an insurance company at a salary of $10,000. He was at that time receiving only $3,000 as prcsidem of the Washington and Lee University. "We do not want you to discharge any duties. General." said the agent; "we simply wish the u?e of your name; that will abundantly compensate us." "Excuse me, sir," was the prompt and decided rejoinder: "I cannot con sent to receive pay for services I do not. render." Nearly every mail brought him simi lar prepositions, and just a short while before his dent h a large and wealth corporation in New York City offered him $50,001) per annum to become its president.

Thc throe magistrates were backwoodsmen. A case was being tried one day that was very important and several hours of listening to the reading of depositions and the argu ments of counsel, proaud con, and pro and cou again, had so nearly entang led thc court in a labyrinth of per plexing questions of law and fact that they doubted their ability to blaze their way out. So they whispered to the leading lawyer at the bar, who was sitting by as a spectator, and ask ed him what he thought ought to be done with thc case. "I think it ought to be thrown out of court," was thc prompt and em phatic reply. That settled it. "Mr: Clerk,'' said thc chief magis trate, "pass up them papers.'' The papers, which made quite a large bundle, were handed the chief magistrate. "Now, Mr. Sheriff," said he deliber ately, "open that window." Thc sheriff opened thc window and the case was thrown out of court. Thc feud that followed lasted for 15 years. - Wit verly Magazine. lier Objection.
