War Spoke in Time to Save Himself From BelngSbot by WS Hill a Comrade During the Civil War a number of soldiers met death by accident and from mistakes made by men of their own companies Many instances O- ccurred ¬ in the Orphan Brigade one of which befell a Nelson couatymai Mr Henry SHarned who came near being shot by his friend Wm S B Hill of Boston The story of the oc ¬ currence is as follows When the Confederates were at Kenesaw on June ao 1864 an order wqs sent at midnight to withdraw the detail from the skirmish pits retaken by them under Maj Rogers The men ol the Sixth Kentucky did not receive It and were left until their absence was reported at headquarters and Capt Buchanan sent speedily to them Among them were Lleut Prank Bar ned Wm S B Hill Milton B Stotta and H S Harned There was con ¬ HUlli on the extreme right Harned got warning first and started to creep along the line to notify the other As the enemy was known to be near and even a slight noise or the appearance- of a moving object was likely to bring a shot he was keeping close to the ground and moving cautiously along the front of the line when Hill who had heard nothing perceived what he took to be a Federal picket at the distance of about twenty yards creep- Ing upon him Bringing his dale to bear he cocked it Hamed for ¬ tunately was near enough to hear the click and realizing his danger spoke his name Recognizing the voice of a comrade to whom he was more than ordinarily attacked and realizing that but for the timely warning he would have shot him to death Hilt was seized with such a tremor that he dropped his gun and was for a mo- ment ¬ dizzy and sick Having thus escaped death for tleeae and and dis ¬ traction for the other they maiJefthelf1 way back to the main lines While many sad things occurred to dampen the soldiers ardor many amusing ones occurred to enliven them and when opportunity offerred the members of the Brigade were not slow to grasp it Sergt Jasper All derson who was a native ot Nelson and who was a member of Company B 9th Ky and known to almost ev ¬ ery one as Jap had the distinction among others of being the onlyweb foot who ever beat a Morgan man when property rights were considered He was accused by some of those roughrIders of having stolen one of their mule and they said that a man who could steal a mule from them made a record After Morgan and Hunt had com ¬ pelted the Federal outpost at Harts ville tq surrender and the Confeder ¬ ates were hastily gathering up arms and other property with which the en ¬ campment abounded preparatory to successful and hasty retreat which followed Jap found a red mule with a blind bridle on roaming around and took possession of him He seemed to have a quick eye for the supply and medical departments as being most promising and coon had this mule loaded with a dczen large U S blankets and about thirty pounds of coflee and a dozen canteens of apple brandyHaving mounted and set out for the ferry he was halted fcy a cavalryman who demanded the mule under order ol General Morgan that all infantry men should be promptly dismounted Anderson replied that the tunic be longed to headquarters and that they would have to go to Capt Morehead then in command of the Ninth Regi ¬ merit to see what he had to say about it- When Moorehead was found he said that Gent Morgan hid ordered all an ¬ imals to be given up and that he would have to comply But said Jap I cant do that Captain I have a valuable cargo here and I cant carry it myself What have you Well these blankets as you see and a big lot of coflee and something in the canteens Try a canteen The Captain took a taste and anew light shown In his face appJer Then he took another pull or two and wound up with Jap you keep that mule and stay along with headquarters Shoot the first cavalryman that tries to take him away from you And to the man who was waiting to dismount Anderson he said You tell John Morgan that this is mymnle he cant have him The provident and persuasive web- foot said afterward that he rode tht mule right along in front like a sufi officer slept at headquarters that night and rode him to Mnrfreesboro nut day and at last turned him loose when he had nothing for him to car ¬ ry Kentucky Standard v A Priceless Relic of Lincoln Soiled and faded torn and frayed a letter written by Abraham Lincoln a few months

notwithstanding her wealth in the things necessary to prolong life This fact has long been observed but has not attracted the at ¬ tentlon it deserves Gradually how ¬ ever the malign conditions that fore- tell ¬ the fate ot tie country have be ¬ comA more aypartat to the casual ob ¬ server and they have now reached a point where they cannot be ignored by any friend or wellwisher of the French republic aid people The lifeblood of the nation is being wiped out and Frenchmen wilt eventually be only an historic memory unless some effective stepsare taken to check their declmlnation The Increase in poponlatlon in Prance just now is practically Imper ¬ ceptible During the past five years it has amounted to only 444613 or iSper cent this gives a yearly aver lie of only threetenths of z

have of sending their money to snail order houses for articles of commerce that could be obtained from their home merchants for the same money qual ¬ ity considered is an enormous one In these days sharp competition in all lines of merchandise has brought prices as low as practicable and the person wko is misled by the pretty words and promises found in the cat ¬ alogues of snail order houses will come to realize alter it id too late that they have been swindled There is not an instance where a person can buy ah article from these mail order concerns any cheaper than they can buy ot their local merchants and the fact that large quantities of the for ¬ eign goods are shipped back astute buyers who take the pains to exam ¬ ine the goods before recelvln them is pi oof that the above iii fact DISAPPOINTED IN LOVE Were Some of the Worlds Great ¬ est Men m Their Young ¬ er Days It may be of some consolation to the rejected lover to remember that many of the greatest men in history have

accomplished by words which wuloaJya ess of tome beauty who was two years older than himself Bnt Miss Chaworth treated all the boys shy advances with laughter and contempt and although he was suf

anything for that lame boy This cruel speech he afterwards said was like a shot through my heart Although it was late and pitch dark I darted out oi the house and never stopped run ¬ ning until I

refused to have anything to do with him and when a few mouths later having though better ot his suicidal threat he sought to console himself by pay Ing court to Miss Harrietts Grove a1 pretty cousin she was so alarmed at his heterodoxies that she sent him very decidedly about his business When Sheridan following the ex ¬ ample of many other amorous young men felt over head and ears in love with Miss Llnleythe beautiful singer she only laughed at his ardor and made laces at him behind his back and yet he used that subtile and elo- quent tongue of his with such purpose that he actually ran away with her to a French nunnery and married her after fighting several duels with hid rivals and her persecutors When Burke the great politician and orator was a student at Trinity College Dublin he Is said to hav had more than one love disappoint ¬ ment His first Infatuation was tot the daughter of a small pnblicani whose dark eyes fired the blood of the young Irishman bnt after co ¬ quetting with him for a short time she jilted him in the most heartless fashion IRs success too with his countrywoman Margaret Worffing ton was no greater although he re ¬ mained her loyal lover to the last When Abraham Lincoln as a youth of eighteen was living In a rude log cabin In Spencer county Ind and picking up the rudiments of educe ¬ tion in the intervals of railsplitting and plowing he fell in love with the daughter of a poor Irish settler in a neighboring log cabin and after many clumsy failures to declare his love to her in person penned one of his first letters asking her to become his wileHe never received an answer to this clumsy effusion as he afterwards called it but when he next met Bridget she tossed her head and looked another way She was much too good she was said to have declar ed to marry a gawky farm laborer Then it was that Lincoln left the pa ¬ rental cabin and voyaged as a hired hand on a flatboad into a greater world which before long was to ring with the name of that gawky farm boy When thirteen years or so later Abraham Lincoln became President of the United States Bridget was still living the slatternly wife of a farm laborer in a log cabin and still pre ¬ served the ill penned letter which might if she had been wise made her the first lady of the land It is well known that Jean Blbtlste Bernadotte when he was a private of marines was indignantly refused by a girl of very humble rank who thought herself much too good to marry a common soldier What her reflections were in later years when the despised private was the powerful King Christian XIV
