The good - forj-nothing.1 rem the shores of Lake Winnipeg r to tiiu llockv Mountain?, from thu < <:>toau of tho Missouri to the North rtukatobawan, la every oamp and cabin, the name of Louis Lachance was fraught with pleasant momorles to tho NMHy. The exceptions were thoae fejp who had not at some time danced a long winter's night away, in lively jigs or merry rools-of-four, to the inspir ing melody of hie fiddle, who had not . listened bpoll-hound as he sang, in half - reeltative, gomo old-time legend of La IJobo Franco, or laughed, till they cried, at his droll stories reeled otf over the oamp tiro, on tho maroh, or in some snug winter post. Louis was a good-for-nothing, as even those who loved him had to acknow ledge. Ho was a wanderer of wan derers : here to-day, away to-morrow, ever on thoraovo; tripping, trading, driving dogs, fishing, hunting, freight ing, trapping, a handy man in oamp, in the woods, In boat or eanoo, or on the plains, at home?everywhere A fear less rider, a skilful dog-driver, a trusty guide, an expert gamhlcr, an Inlmita-1 bio raconteur, a ruro good llddlor, a tippler on occasion, and withal a jovial poor soul whoso ubuudunt good quali ties ouU.uinbored tho bad in hie oddly equipped personality. Tho men pre tended to despise him when romoved from tho influenco of his Irresistible good humor, the women scolded and potted him by turns, tho girls adtnirod him in Beeret, and tho children wor shipped him. Tho hero of many an unenviable oxploit ?of duties negleotcd or promises forgottou, but never guilty of tho meanness of theft or criminal untruth?there came a day when Louis found himself in > ad disgrace. He had joined tho autum brigade of | buffalo hunters that started westward from tho Red River every mid-sum mer and?just as their hopo of secur ing a winter's supply of moat and a rich booty of robes was on tho point of fruition?had committed an act which in Its very thoughtlessness, transcended ull his past sins and.culled for condign . punlshmont. The laws of tho half-breed hunters of tho plains were contained in an un Written code, whos.0 " shalt not's" woro few and easy of comprehension, but their observauco wus rigorously en forced) and punishment for tho infrac tlOQ was immediate and severe. The | penalty varied with tho degreo of guilt, and ranged from tho l"ss of tho Offender's saddle, bridle, c. coat, toi flogging, and, in oxtremo cuses, banish- j raent from tho brigade Louis' crime foil within the last category. One evening the scouts roportcd a great herd of buffalo three hours ahead of tho advancing brigade. Camp made at onco, sentries posted, and strict silonco enjoined upon all. Thon, after long hours of nervous alertness, the hunters sped swiftly and silently away, before dawn, to tho mighty deed of slaughter, which was to mark tho birth of the now day. Tho ridors spread out in a long lino to right and left as they advanced, und at length crested the summit of a raogo of low lylng hills that bounded ono sido of the valley, in which tho unsuspeoting prey were grazing peacefully. From tho height they overlooked u broad depression whoso further limit of en circling hills was alroady madoglorious by the opalescent tints of the rising sun; beneath them flouted a cloud of quivering, undulating, snowy mist that hid the valley's bottom and shut from their view tho thousands of wild oattlo, whoso presence was, neverthe less, triade certain by tbo uiuflii? snorts and low bellowiug that reached tholr ears through tho evanescent cur tain. A sign from Picrro Delormo, the captain, brought the lino to a halt; tho hunters mado hasty preparations for the grand ob arge?loosening their powder-horns, lining thoir mouths with bullets, and adjuatiug cinches and saddles?all oyes wore lixed ou Pierre, whoso signal " Ho 1" should eet them charging madly ou the herd. At tbo supreme moment an eaglo came Eoaring over tho valloy, Louis's guu j rang out, and tho bird tumbled, a dis- i bevelled bulk, through tho Biartled air. In an instant tho distant hill tops wero black with lieoiug buffaloes. ? Up from tho mist thoy roso liko sea monsters from the waves, and wero olT ovor tho divide, tho earth vibrating beneath tho shock of tho myriad h??fo. The hunters charged, but too late ; all that was left for**-tboir ballots and knives were tbo poor outcasts ano . strays?the sick, disabled, or weaklings \J-'^di8tanced"or injured in tho blind mad rush for life. Conscience-stricken and heavy hearted, Louis picked up tho dead eaglo and returned to camp. Ho made full confobslon of his fuult, but ex pressed no bopo of pardon and offered no excuse. Tho women aud old men heaped reproaches upon him : exhaust ing a vocabulary rich in that depart ment, In variegated abuse of himtelf and his ancestry. The unfortunate bird, tho cause of it ail, wus flung on tho tiro? a burnt offering to their outragod feel ings?and Louis might have shared Its fato If somo of tho iiercost could have \ had thoir will of him. "Oh! tho accursed good-for-noth ing!" yelled old liaptisto Charet'.o, the oldest man in tho camp. " Figure to yourself, wo others with our women and children, rendered destitute by this pig of a Louis, who, to feed bis vanity, makes to run tho whole herd that wo had so much pain to arrive at! Aw, it's a little too much ! It's in famous ! infamous!" "My poor boy," said PcroT^uohuiso, " how did It come that thou couldot mako a stupidity like that ?" " I know not, my father ; perhaps it ^ was the Devil who tompted me." Then, ; after apauSo, "Mario Ducharme askeu me to get her some eaglo's feather.-, and what would you, 'twas tho first saglo that I met." " Aha ! It was that llttlo dirt of a j Mario, with her boads, and hor quills, and her feathers, and ?11 her shop-! ful of nonsense; 'twas sho who had' turned the boy's head and mado him a ; good-for-nothing, fiddling rascal like herself. Aha, tho little cat!" The storm of feminine wrath was diverted to poor Marfo, who sobbed bitterly as it broke on her in shrieking fury, for It was her fortuno to bo p/etty, and her sisters held her In esteem or hato according to the degree In which her good looks equaled or surpassed thoir own ; and tbo majority of them were iiopolessly plain. Louis made a bravo attempt to defend his awoethoart, and his doQart attitude "*^and voice raised in anger told heavily sgainat him with tho exasperated hunters, returning from their profit less ohase, for thoy mistook his de meanor for one of truoulent eolf-vlndl cation. A court was hastily organized. The culprit waited examination and offered no defence. "I do.not wish to dofend myself," he said resignedly. "It is but anothnr - of my fool tricks, whloh I regret very . much. Do to mo as you will. I merit and deslro to bo punished." The sentence?twenty-five lashoB ? and banishment from the brigade was carried out forthwith, amid tho tears and Wallings of the women and children, whose appeals for mercy wore in vain. Louis nover fllnohod beneath the laeb, but when the little - ones flocked about him with farewoll kisses, he broko down and wept like one of themselves. "Adieu, my dear little friends, adieu ! Prey to the good Ood for mo. And you others, I only ask that you forgot my fault. Your blessing, my father." Ho knolt a miaute before tho priest, thon vaulted Into his saddle and ro lo rapidly away. The outcast shaped his course north westward, ?? the drew file* intending to make tbo Hotticmcot at Edmonton, uu Hi*. North Saskatehawaa. Ills rond luy all before him, for the gr.-at plains were w? familiar to blm as the stroots of a city aro to its Inhabitants. Hie back throbbed and smarted from the lashes he had received, but the greater smart was within. Every fiber of his moral being tingled with the disgrace that had been put upon him, and ho resolved to bury himself fwrevor in some far-oir corner of tho north coun try, where, perohanoe, the story of his shame might not penetrate. On tbo third day of his solitary ride ho sighted the 'Wasoana crook, and doted three Indian lodges standing on its bank. A couple of starved dogs howled dismally as he drow near, but no smoke or othor sign of life was ap parent. Ho hailed la Cree ; silonoe, save for tho mournful whining of the dogs, that now slunk whimpering ubout his horse's foot. He advanced cuutloualy, puzzled at the unoanny ap pearance of-thiogs. and became con scious of an ollenslvo odor that grew more pal pa hl e a t every step. Alarmed, und intensely oxcited, ho leaped to tho ground and strodo swlfty to the door of tho nearest teppee. Horror I With in lay live swollen corpses?a man, a woman and three children?Bmall-pox 1 He turned to My from the plag um stricken place, but a feeble moan, so faint as to be almost inaudible, ar rested him. Ho listened intently. " Water." Ob, the pitiful pleading conveyed in tbat ono simple word?who could resist It? In an instant Louis had forgotten his terror, his danger, bis diBgust, everything except tUat a' fellow-crea ture was in dire distress In less time i than it takes to rocord tho good Joed, [ he was tenderly supporting the poor, fever stricken form, while holding a precious, life-giving draught to the swollen Hps. Tho survivor of the camp was a young Croc woman. Sho had nursed tho others while her strength lasted, and theo, overcomo by the pestilonco, had lain down to die. When Louis found her, tho disease had run its course, and thanks to tho ttmoly oup of cold water and his alter good ollluos, her Ufo was saved. Ho made n shelter of willow branches near the water's edgo, towhioh bo removed his patient, makiug nor a comforivtb.o bed of grass and leaves, ovor which ho spread his own blunkots. Thou he set about dis posing of the dead. Ho burned tho toppoes aud their contents, and man aged, with infinite toil?an axe being tho only tool available to scoop out tho trench ie which ho depositeu tho poor semblances of humanity?cloven in number. His eelf-iinposed task was loathsome in tho extreme, and when it wus completed ho felt sick and ex I hausted. He learned from the young woman, who was rapidly regaining strength, that she und her companions hau formed udo of a number of small parties iuto which the main camp of tbo Crecs had broken up when tho disease ilrst attacked them, hoping In that way to avoid contagion. It was bcliovea to ; havecomu to them through tho Blood's 1 and Sarcoee, from tho Wood Mountain 1 country, where it w as said to bo raging, i Ho heard her story with groat con i corn. Ho knew that tho hunters wero I following the buffalo to tho southwest, ' which would lead them directly to tho very source of tho disease. If, happily, I thoy had thus far oscaped falling in i with any of tho fugitives, who were j llcuing in all directions from tho dread j pestilonce, there might oven yet bo I tlmo to save tbo brigade by turning I thorn back to tbo settlement. Ho was ! sick. Iiis bones were raokod with p un. ma head splitting, his eyes burn ing, his throat pitrohud, his stup heavy and uncertain, but, no matter, ho would make the attempt. Tho woman dis suaded him. " Stay, my brother. It is not in theo to do what thou wouldst. Tbo bad sickness is upon thee, oven now, and before thou hast ridden far, ttiu blind ness will come, and who then will lead theo to tbo peoplo ? Stay, I will euro for theo wnen thy strongth leaves and wheu it returns, wo will go to gether and warn tho nuotors." lb; would leston to neither argument nor uppoal ; his resolve was taken and ho would carry it out or die. So ho mounted his horde uud.sof. hVs ? htce ^uath'war'i. H ... thought was to head off the brigade ou tho trail which ho felt bure thoy wero following, and post up a warning that they would bo sure ; to fiud. If bo could only succeed, what would tho rott matter, tie had lived I too long. The day of his disgrace saould have been his lust, but if ho ac complished his present purpose, and saved his dear little child friends and their good mothers, and Mario?his Marie?his lifo hud been well expend ed. Weak und post-sirickun as ho vvas, ho urgod his horso forward, tak ng no heed of time, unless to curse toe lagging moments when ho was ! forced to stay his ruce with death to i rest and feed bis trusty broncho. Ho j dared not ?leop. Wnon not in tho saddle, ho forced his trembling limbs to bear him to and fro, to and fro?a weary picket repel Hug tho advance of ambush of death. At times foarful shapes appeared in hia pathway, sur rounded, pursued him ; fiendish voices whispered threats of numeless horror, shrieked raaledletloiiB, or mocked him with hellish laughter, but still ho rodo southward, numbed and unconscious of physical pain, possessed and sustained by one lleroo, eager longing that usurped all other sensations. How long and how far he rodo ho know not. Tho horse, Hogged and forced to tho limit of ondurancc, fallerod in hia stride and gave signs of collapse, as ono morning utsunriso ho toiled weari ly to the summit of a little bill that overlooked tbo Wood Mountain trail. Tho poor brute stopped ou tho bill-top uud uttered a loud noigb that roused his master from tho stupor into which ho hud fallen. An an wering neigh came up from the valley, and raising himself painfully upright, I-uns saw, through ahleod-rcd mist, two mounted men approach log rapidly?tho advance guard of tno brigade. " Ho, Hothoy hailed as thoy oamo uearor. But, holy uamu, It's Louis ! Ho, ho, boy, what aro you doing tbero !*' " Stop," ho shrieked, "stop for your lives! Tho post?tho smuil-pox?is everywhere on tho plains! To the camp] Back! To tho sottlementI Toll Mar?" His voloo died away in a groan, and be foil from his saddle, Inert and lifeless. Tho horso, freed from his woight, made an attornpt to join his fellows, but the hunters shot htm dead and rodo away toward oamp, as if pursued by demons, shouting tho warning as they went??' Tho small pox I The small-pox !" #??*## "God be praised. The fever has him ; ho will live." The words spokon in a low, familiar voioo, greeted .Louis' ears, roused from unconsciousnose, as it seemed to him, by the presuro of a soft, cool hand on his forehead. He opened his <?.> wearily, and they rested upon tho kindly face of Fere Lach also, smiling down into them, and?beside it another faco, beaming with lovo and now-born hope?Mario's.

Fusion Has Given a Blaok Eye * to Mc Kinley. Special to the Atlauta Conatitution. Chicago, Ootober 2 ?The most en couraging news has come from all points to tho Democratic headquarters during tho past week. The outlook is hotter today than it has been at any j time since Bryan's nomination. Tho Democratic cause has mado tremen dous strides in the* middle Western ? States?the fighting ground of this campaign. The Democratic campaign fund has been largely increased and the manag ers aro now flooding these middle Western States with quantities of literature- and posters, ail which are having good t-?Y-ot. Sonator Jones has just returned from the east after a con ference with Senator Gorman and Sena tor Faulkner and brings the most en couraging nows. It Is the Republican I programme to buy these middle Wes tern StatoB, but tboy can't do it. Thoy I may pay for several hundred thousand , rotes, but. under the Australian ballot system, thoy havo no assurance of the delivery of the sumo. Unless all signs fail Illinois will bo found in the Democratic column on tho third of November. A special p ill of the State mado by the 11 anna com mittees gives tho Democrats tho State outside of Cook County. Tho realiza tion of this on tbo part of tho Republi cans has caused constornatlon at the Hanoa headquarters and they aro mak ng tremerdous efforts to carry Cook County. But tboy can't do it. Every labor organization in the olty is sup porting the Democratic ticket, and almost every labor leader is on tbo stump for Bryunand free silver. These mon without exception predict a Demo cratic majority of 30,000 in Cook Coun ty. True, many workingmon in largo factories aro woarlng McKinley badges, but they aro reporting to tholr or ganizations that thoy wear them in order to keep their jobs; that they will vote for Bryan on election day. Of all the great newspapers in Chi cago but one is supporting Bryan. That is an afternoon paper and it is doing good work. The morning pa pers and the other afternoon papers are vicious In tholr antagonism ; so vi cious ludeed that they will not print news which is tho least favorable to tho Democratic candidate. While these papers aro for McKinley and tho gold standard, 80 percent, of tho mon who are working on thom aro for Bryan. Tho Democratic press com mittee ha.s<just mado a poll of tho edi tors, reporters and prlntorsof tho live great morning newspapers of Chicago with tbo following result : Bryan, 317 ; McKinley, 44. This is a correct poll, and at tho same timo not a word favorable to the Bryan candidacy is ever printed in any of tho papers. If tho mon on the groat papers which aro oxerting all efforts to tho election of McKiuley aro themselves" not con vinced by the arguments thoir employ ers forco them to print how can tho general public bo V Phillip Armour, tho great pork pack or, erected an Australian ballot booth In his 6tock yards last week In order to test tbo sentimont of bis employees. Ho had boasted that 90 per cont. of tho men In his employ wore for McKinley, and ho mado a bet that it would be so proven on election day. In order to decide tho bet bo erected the booth that It might be proven that no effort would bo mado to coerce his mon. When tho day was over 800J>aJJ.Qts had been put-ifi ^belWxTbi which (575 VVoto ior Bryan and 125 for McKinley. This was a complete knock-out for Armour. He paid the bet and has given up the fight. He told Hanna that it was no use, things were all one way. And ho now declares that if othor big concerns that havo taken ballots from thoir men would givo them the privilege of tho Australian booth thoy would find a similar stato of affairs existing among thoir em ployes. Tho Republicans are going to havo a big labor parado on tbo ninth of Octo ber. Porhaps every omployo of every big manufacturing concern In Chicago will be In that parade. They will bo forced into it. Thoy havo boon ordered to parado that day and carry McKiuley banners or else not return to work tbo following day. Those orders havo done much to drive tho labor vote of Chicago into the Bryan column. Theso mon can be forced to parado, but they can not be forced into dropping tbo McKin ley ballot into the box whon they are within the inolosuro of tho Australian ballot booth where no one under the sun except themselves can tell for whom thoy vote. Addod to the attempt at coereoment Hanna proposes to buy votes. He is trying to work tho game in these States that Chris Mageo attempted in tho last presidential campaign. It will bo remembered that Mageo wont to Birmingham and paid for 50,000 votes. After making the purchase ho reported Alabama In the Republican oolum?; but on election day to his surprise h? fourd that tho men he had bought did not stay bought. This Is aoout tbo way Hanna will find it up hero. Ho may buy votes but thoy won't stay bought. To sum up tho situation, tho outlook at tho clo?o of Soptomber is of tbo most satisfactory oharactor to the De mocratic managers. The silver causo .has received a markod impetus during the last ton days. Prom every State news has coino that tho farmers aro now unanimously under tho Bryan ?taudarJ, while in the cities tho labor voto. will bo almost solidly cast for the Mil vor nominee for President. A poll of Kansas has just been com pleted by tho allied freo silV9r forces It shows that ? tbo Bryan electors will havo 50,000 majority in that Stato. A similar poll of Kentuoky shows that Brvah's majority will not be loss than 30,000. ft is estimated that 10,000 silver Republicans will voto for Bryan, whilo tho bolting gold Demorats in that Stato aro estimated to be rot ox ooedlng 10,000. Republicans who aro wun us win en ot tno faimor and Duoknor Domoorats and win the Stato by tho usual majority. Fusion between tho Domocrats, Popu lists, Prohibitionists and silver Republi cans has boon consummated in Mlohl (fan, the result of which will glvo the Stato to the i) onocratlo candidate by not Iobs than 30,000 majority. ? A pod from Iowa shows that Stato to bo, Bafo by 25,000 Democratic ma jority. In the agricultural countlos from 20 to 30 per eont. of tho Republi can votes will be cast for Bryan. The most remarkable news ooines from Ohio. A caroful Democratlo poll has been mado of that Stato and our people doolaro that Mr. Bryan will carry It liy not loss than 25.000 majority. Thh teems a icmarkablo statement, yot tho Demoorutic managers doolaro that a careful and comploto poll has been made of every county in the State with thin rosult. Minne ,old is now conccdod to tho Domocrats by the Ropublloan campaign managen. The Republican managers are ur-1 Joubtodly on the i-jd. "Hot one word if encouraging news hao been Riven >ut from tholr headquarters within Lho pwt two woeke. it' is said thoy liavo received none. On the other hand the polls they havo .endeavored tu make from tbo mlddlo Western States Aro all against them. Their only hopo Is that thoy can buy these Statoe. It is possible that we will lose in ?liana. Some of tho Demooratloin that State are to bo disposed to trade off tho national ticket for tholr State ? ticket. Tho complications in Indiana | are as serious as those in New York. But neither Indiana nor New York is necessary to elect Mr. Bryan. Without either State ho will have nearly 300 electoral votes, while only 224 are ueo* cessary to elect. The ProfcrcMA of Fusion ts Putting No Mm Into M<-Kin ley's Coffin. The New York World has boon steadily assuring the country of Bryan's defeat, but it is beginning to talk dif forently as the campaign draws to a oloso: Boneath tho noise and smoke of the eampaign the quiet, steady progress of fusion recorded from time to time iu a paragraph hidden among columns of political speeches has attracted little attention. Yet It now presents a very different aspect from that of a few weeks ago. Then Republican hope was high on account of Democratic and Populist dissensions. Now that hopo has dwindled to a fow faiut and fading glimmers from a fow States that are normally Democratic by largo ma jorities. Fusion ha? to a reasonable certainty added Alabama, Kansas, Nebraska, North Carolina and Tennessee?52 elec toral votes?to the 45 electoral votoB of Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho. Mississ ippi, Montana, South Carolina, Utah, Washington and Wyoming that wero already assumed to bo reasonably safo for silver. It has presumably given 60,000 Populist votos in Illinois, 25,000 In Indiana, 30,000 In Iowa, 20,000 in Kentucky, 40,000 iu Missouri, 80,000 in Virginia and 85,000 in Minnesota to wards making good the losses from tho defection of sound money Democrats and towards swelling tho accessions of freo silver Republicans. Whllo it has not yet boon consummated in Goorgiu and Texas, thoso States aro anything but certain for honest monoy. In brief, fusion has mado it necessary that thero shall bo enormous Demo cratic defections from tho freo silver tiokot if Mr. McKinley Is to have oven a respectable majority of the electoral votos. For oveu if ho gote ovory Stato east of tho Mississippi and north of tho Ohio and tho Potomac, which in cludes Dolawaro and Maryland, aad gets West Virginia also, ho neods two votos to make tho necessary majority. This is tho campaign at a glanco? tho peril of froo silver's success, tbo peril of froo silver's bare dofoat. Supposo Mr. McKinley gets only enough States to just oloct him, and thoso States all in one section of the country, what will bo the next result of tho election? The silver horosy will havo carried ten or a dozen more States than did Mr. Harrison in 1892. It will continue its absolute control of tho Senate. It will control tho ma chine of a national political party. It will bo Intrenched as never before. It will organize immediately for the con gressional election two years honce and for tbo Prosidency two years after that. Is not this common senso ? The Bryan and Scwall Campaign Club.

Tho most enthusiastic political moet Ing which has been held in Greenville for a long time was tho gathering on Tuesday night to form a Bryan and Sowall campaign club. Prof. Hughes' graded school band occupied tbo por tico of tbo Record building in advance of the hour for tho meeting, and the strains of inspiring music brought a largo crowd in that vicinity long before tho timo camo for assembling lu the . court bouse, which was quickly j filled to overflowing soon after eight o'clock. There woro a num ber of persons present 'who live on tbo outskirts of tho city, and other evidences that this movement to organizo a campaign club 'In honor o the Democratic nominoos had struck a popular chord in tho community. It was also a pointed olTset to the lamo effort which has been mado to organi/.o a Palmer and Bucknerclub, and which still hangs flro for tho lack of local loaders and tho want of encouragement among tho votors of tho city. Tho mooting was organized, on mo tion of Capt. A. Blytho, by calling Col. S. S. Crittcndon to tho chair, and ho was greeted with applnuso when he faced tho 'argo andjcntbuslastic audi enco. In his opening remarks Col. Crittcndon said ho greatly approclated tho honor In bolng ealled to presldo at tho first mooting to form a campaign club in South Carolina, intonded to further tho Intorosts of Bryan and Sow all, whoso oloctton ho folt confident would tako place on tho 3d of Novem bor. flo dwelt at some longtb upon the principal issue of tie: campaign, and earnestly contended that tho set tlement of tho curroncy question in fa vor of tho free coinage of silvor was a mattor of vital importance to tho peo plo of tho wholo country.

Tho chairman introduced as the first speaker tho Hon. W. L.

Gov. Maul din was qulto severe upon Mr. Cleve land's administration, and contended that he had a just right to criticise tho prosont ocoupaut of the Whlto liouso, as he had boon dcuoivod in the promisos of tho last campaign. His speech was frequently applauded, and overy refor enco to tbo opposition gained heart; cheers, for ho was dealing in facts anil figures that brought conviction to bis hoaroiA.

M,tes, purposes and doc "trlnes, as tho nominees of tho Demo cratic party for president and vice president of tho United States, and Whereas, while wo recognize the right of every Democrat to hold and maintain his individual opinions as to details in matters of government, aud upon tho principles and policies in volved in this contest, wo nevertheless hold and aflirm that it Is the solemn duty of every Democrat to abide tho action of tho majority of tho party. This position wo ma ie. t.ain is truo Dem ocratic doctrine. Tho past glorious history of tho Democratic party and its grandest achievements havo been accomplished only by strict adherence to this prinoiple. The questions at is sue in this campaign woro first agita ted and urged by tho people who com pose tho Democratic party, and the demands promulgated by the Chicago convention are, therefore, tho demands of tho people themselves. Tho results of these deliberations have been differ ent to what many staunch Democrats have wished for, but it must ho remem bered that these rosults are but tho aggregated opinion of tho party, the merging together of all individual opinions and plans, all looking to the one great end, tho welfare of tho whoie people, and it is clearly tho bounden duty of tho minority to sustain these results as tho outcome of party consul tation. Tho Democratic party has a glorious future before it. As its high principles and grand and noble pur? poses-become more widely understood Its adherents grow in number through out our entiro domain. Its ult'tnato destiny is the final attainment Of tho fullest measure of liborty and justice to every citizen in tho land and tho perpetuity of tho sovorolgnty of tho people. Allegiance to a party of theso high purposes, espousing tho causo of tho people, rises far higher than tho exercise of individual opinions and preferences. Ilunco tho patriotic rea son for and paramount importance of united and unbroken party fealty. Theroforo bo it llesolvcd, by tho Democracy of the city of Greenville, in muss meeting as sembled: That wo horuby pledge our united inlluoncc and support to tho , nominees of tbo Democratic national convention of Chicago, and announce It as our unqualified and firm convic tlon that it Is the duty of every Demo crat in the Stato and nation to do like wise. After tho adoption of tho resolutions, tho olub accepted tho list of ono hun dred and sixty-three numes signed to tho call for this meotlng as tbo basis of membership, with the understand ing that any one could withdraw if bo desired. About twenty other names woro added, and tho club adjourned subject to tho call of the cbalrmau. THK HORHOKS OF WAR. A Federal Soldier Tells lit* Exporl enco tn llartlc?lie Don't Want to Shoulder a Musket Again. Atlanta Journal. A boy with a rifle and cartridge box irot on the car tho other morning. '? Fall in according to hoight, right face !'' facetiously remarked a man who used to drill ou the university campus. 'Fall In?" said a middle-aged man with a gruff voice. I novor want to 'fall in' agaiu. 1 would rather fall I out evory tlmo." I could not help contrasting tho boy and tho votcran. Hero wns tbo rosy anticipation of youth sido by side with prosaic, pessimistic and battlo-scarrcd experience. The veteran seemed to bo very much in earnest, aud I con cluded to draw him out. ''That's vory nice for tho boys," said he, " but war is horrible. Tho more I paw of It tho worso It got. A boy of 18 goes into batUlo with fewer qualm than a man of 30, who realizes the danger, and it takes less grit for fresh troops to staud firo than it does to keep thorn there after they havo seen men shot down aud mangled, lu my firrv battle, i was without fear at tbo f At firo. Frotty soon a comrade fell 6vcr on my breast tho blood gushing from a mortal wound and spattering all over me. That mado mo weak. 1 wanted to got out. Awhile afterward a sergeant near m* was ntruck on tbo head by a ?olid shot. His brother close by was sput tered with the poor fellow's brains and some of them spattered me. Ugh ! It win horrible. I turned sick aud faint." I did not wonder that he didn't want to fall in anymore. Hut this was, not all of it. " When you hear a man describe a battle," said ho, "you may put it down that ho wasn't iu it. It is impossible. After a little while you can't soo 20 foot from you. You can't tell whether your gun is firing. Tho roar of battle drowns a single report, even from your own gun. Tho rebound makes your shoulder so numb that you can't feel it." Our guns were muzzlod-loaders, and sometimes they woro ball full of loads. Tho soldier didu't know his gun bad refused to Uro. "Talk about manual of arms and beautiful company movements," said be, " they don't amount to tho snap of my finger In battle. All you can do le to kcop somewhere in lino and keep on firing. You cau't sec far and you can't, hear anything but the awful roar of battlo. If a move is to bo made, you get notice of it by motions, or by seeing tbo men near you moving out, and you got out a? quick as you can. "This tain about a genoral loading his moo ia buttle is all nonsense. If tho nien saw a general in front of them they wouldn't stay thero a minute. They would know something was wrong. The general has his headquar ters Away hack perhaps a mile or two, and there his nag is Hying, tlo must, bavo a placo whero he can be found, like the mayor of a city. Else It would, be ijjjppjs?)le ^la-^WefuSri* when a Hank is turned. I have been in many a battle and never saw a general yet. I havo seen brigadier generals, but not a division or corps commander, or tho general of an army. Thoy uro away back in tho rear, whero they ought to bo." Tho votcrau had a personal experi ence to relate. He was on tho Federal side, and was one of thoso who charged the Confedorate9 in the confusion im mediately following tho explosion of tho mine under the fort at Petersburg. His account of the sensation of being shot is an interesting one. "A sheet of fire shot out from the opposite line," said he, "and live of us fell forward at the samo instant. It was a rain of bullets that cut us down. 1 was shot in my leg, in my urm and In my bead, li didn't 'know that 1 was shot, aud thought that f had fallen down through tho weakness of excitement. I was numb, for the bullets struck tho bone and paralyzed me, but 1 did not lose my souses. Tho wounds did uot pain mo, at first. In tho course of a half hour, when the excitement had worn Off, my wounds began to hurt. I did not know that my log was shot till I saw tho blood running out over my shoo. A comrade who was badly wounded tied a handkerchief around my log and stopped the How of blood. Hut for that I would havo died. While I lay thero another shot struck mo in tho side. It was two or three hours beforo help came. I suffered groat pain. I wanted water and I was death iy^ sick. It vus a year after tho war before I got well, and I carry a minnic ball in my side to this day." I thought ho had given mo enough for a full realization of the horrors of war, but he had ono more picture, more moving still. "Tho night beforo I was shot," said he, " I weut on tho Hold and saw those poor devils lying there. A boy of is was crying tor his mother. Ob, the pity of it! Then I realized that evorj man thero was BOinobody'oSOU or some body's brother. God protect us from another war 1" IIo8tepped off the olootriecar briskly and walked to his daily round of busi ness In the Equitable building. Tbo lad who had not hoard this e< nv r-a tlou weutoa to school with h.o rifle Who is Will Whitener ? He is our Fashionable Hair Cutter and Shaver, -IN BENDELLA ,HOTEL. anil hi is cartridge-box. Then I thought of the scenes on the field of the first Manassas, where the flower of the Eighth Georgia lay wcltoring in blood as tho sun went down, and 1 wondered if this boy was a son or a ft rands I of one of those men. I thought of the time within my own rt collect'' q v.-h- n b'ack wa* lim* prevailing color in tho dr. IS or women, am" hardship tho lot of tho average youth. It has boon 30 years since that time and you hear boys and fools talk of war as a good tblng for the couutry.
