OLONEL JACK Ferguson lounged, in through the old Slocum Park, New Orleans, and was passing under the white glare, when he met a man, the sight of whose face staggered him. "Great Powers'."

he gasped, hoarsely. "Hugh Bancroft!" The other person stopped, but was not so startled as the colonel. His eyes became lustrous with gladness, as he breathed happily "Colonel Jack!"

Then, both men springing for each other, they embraced like brothers. "Great heavens!" continued the oolonel, presently, pulling the other back into the shadow of a cedar, -where they sat down, "are you back from the grave?" "Oh, no," responded Bancroft, lightly, "I didn't get quite that far. I skipped when we were within Just a hundred yards of the cemetery." "But explain, man!" commanded Colonel Jack. "I swear neither you nor I shall budge an inch from here until you tell me all about it. "Oh, I'll explain," said the other, laughingly "I'll explain, you old pirate, if you'll only give me time. You've still got your same old bull-headed impatience, haven't you? Great Moses, man! I haven't seen you for twenty years!" "Will you go on and explain?" thundered the colonel. "Oh, yes, yes. You remember, of course, that little brush our company had with the Yanks just before Vicksburg? You know how there was a whole regiment ot the Federals camped at Ruggles' Ford, and we ran into them?" "Certainly, certainly. Go on!" "And you also know that there were too many for us, that our squad was too small and we had to run. Then, as we were pressing us close, you know a bullet Btruck me, and I was tumbled gracefully out of the line." "Exactly, boy," said the colonel, with considerable huskiness, "and I would have sworn that you were killed. For as I rode by you—you know I didn't have time to stop—as I rode past you and looked down, I never saw a face more like that of a corpse." "Which is right where you were oft your ballast. I wasn't dead by any means, though there was a dark, blank period when I didn't know anything of life. And when I finally came out of that state, it was to find myself safely lodged in the tent of a company surgeon, In the Yankee lines. There I was, quite snug and sure, and I was convinced that I should remain in charge of the Unionists for some time to come. For even had I been well, I was still their prisoner. "Now, strangely enough, I was hurt very little, the bullet having simply glanced along the back of my neck up near the base of the skull. The shock had kept me unconscious the entire morning, but toward night I began to feel quite vigorous, and knew I was not hurt badly. Don't fancy for a moment that I showed any vigor, however. Oh, no! For two days after I knew my injury was slight I lay there like one un

able to rise, and occasionally groaning for the doctor's benefit. Of course, preferred this to the uncertain fate ef a guarded prisoner, for In my assumed condition there was room for me to hope to escape. "The doctor, whoee own mind seemed not wonderfully brilliant, was easy te deceive, and I once beard him remark to an assistant that, owing to the location of ay wound, he was quite oertaln that it had affected my brain, which accounted for my prolonged suffering. H« kept my head carefuly bolstered in bandages, much to my discomfort, though, of course, I was in no condition to offer objections. "From bits of conversation had between the surgeon and the officers who occasionally called on Mh, I learned that we were still camped at Ruggles'

Ford, awaiting the arrival of another regiment from somewhere. "But I forgot to tell you that at the time of my capture nearly a dozen more of our boys, who fell wounded that morning,were carried into the same tent that I was. Since then, however, three or four of the poor fellows, whose wounds had been far more serious than mine, had been hauled away to the graveyard. "Yes, about dark, on the evening of my second day there, the 'dead-wagon' nad backed up to the door of the tent, and carried them off. Each was wrapped in a single blanket—the same blanket that be had suffered on—and they were laid in the fereet, somewher* along the bank of the creek. "It was awful, colonel, to hear that wagon rattling off with than, especially ]ut at dusk, for tha— wain moontight evenings, and to the gmvedlggen

it seemed more reverent to perform their solemn duties at night. "Well, colonel, on the morning of the third day I continued to lie in a half st*por, though once, when the doctor was out for half an hour, I arose, and after flourishing my limbs around a minute, knew 1 was all right. I had been well fed, of course, for during all iuy misery and semi-consciousness I had shown a sleepy but effective ability to eat. "When the surgeon returned, I ,had subsided, and was lying still and quiet Then all that morning I laid there, wondering what was to become of me, and planning desperately to escape. No, I could hardly call it planning, for I simply could not plan There seemed no possible way for me to make egress from that camp. For had I walked out of the tent while the surgeon was taking one of his short naps during the nigh l, I would have been promptly 'nailed' by a guard. Or. at least, I could never have passed the pickets. "While I was thinking it over, colonel, I suddenly dropped to sleep, and slept until far in the afternoon. Then, when 1 awoke, 1 learned from the surgeon, who was just then talking to an officer, that three more of our boys had died. "And later on in the afternoon, just a little later on, colonel, another of our comrades took bis last breath. He died about an hour before dark, and even as he did so there came to me a startling idea, which was suggested by his lying on the blanket next to me! "My breath came quick but silent, as out of my sleepy, half-closed eyes I watched the surgeon cross the poor fellow's hands and fold the blanket carefully around the body, in a way that would show the gravediggers that it was a form ready for their hands. "Then, as the doctor stepped from the body, for perhaps five minutes I prayed earnestly for him to leave the tent, for something to call him away. "And it seemed, colonel, that my prayer was answered, for presently an officer came to the door and said that he was wanted in another tent Then the surgeon passed out under the canvas flap, and both be and the officer moved away. At the same instant I heard the rattle of the dead-wagon approach* ing the teat. For darkness bad eome, a darkness which wouM have been complete but for the simmering moonlight. "I had but an instant to act, but I moved quickly, desperately. "Swiftly as the thought itself I rose, leaned over and spread the dead man's blanket out in a loose, careless manner over him, leaving his hair and part of his forehead exposed, and his arms extended out from under the blanket's folds. Then with the same desperate quickness I wrapped my own blanket tightly around my legB, then my body, and after tucking it over and under my head, and folding my arms under it in a manner that made it more tight, I held myself rigid. "I had, of course, removed the bandages from my head, and when, a minute later, a hand gently pulled the blanket from over my face, my lipe were drawn tight and my eyes were wide set in a deadly stare. "The expression, in the dim light of the tent lantern, accompanied by the rigidity of my figure, satisfied the gravedigger, and the covering being quickly thrown over my face, I felt myself seized by two men—one at the heels, the other at the neck—and summoned the use of every muscle to hold myself stiff. "A few minutes afterward, colonel, I was laid on something hard, and knew

I was in the dead-wagon. It seemed an hour to me then, though it could not have been more than one minute, before three more bodies were deposited beside me, and I felt myself jarring over the ground. "After waiting probably five long, fearful, horrible minutes, I cautiously moved the blanket from off my eyes, and looking up. could see the limbs and leaves that hung between me and the moon. It was a delicious spectacle to me. "A few seconds before 1 had heard the loud challenge of the sentry, then the wagon had moved on, and I now knew we were past the pickets, and proceeding over the dark forest road toward the graveyard. "There was at the rear of the wagon's bed a board perhaps half a foot high, and on this I rested my heels.

Then I slid my legs along until my knees hung over. The gravediggers were steadily talking, and I hoped to drop out without their observing me. "And I did it, colonel. As the wagon was passing through a heavy shadow, I rose up and dropped over the endboard to the ground. Hie vehicle rolled oo, and as I beard the gravediggers continuing to talk in even tones, I knew that my act had been unnoticM. "I was clothed only In my shirt and trousers, being, of course, barefooted, but I was hardly conscious at

No Change In Representation

St. Louis, Mo., June 16.—The republican national committee had undet consideration 1 his morning the resolution offered by Mr. Payne of Wisconsin providing for a change of the basts of representation in the national convention. Mr. Payne has amended the resolution since first prepared. As presented it is as follows: "Resolved, That the national committee recommend to the convention that hereafter the basis of representation from the several states shall be fixed at four delegates-at-large for each 7,000 votes or majority fraction thereof cast in each state for the republican electoral ticket nt the last preceding election, and that each territory and the District of Columbia be entitled to six delegates, and that tho delegates be apportioned to the several congressional districts of each state upon the same basis."

The committee, by a vote of 31 to 4 decided that it was inexpedient to make any recommendation.

Piatt Aibiil to Name 1IU Man. St. Louis, June 16.—The following was given to the Associated press from a reliable source, and is not denied by either Mr. Piatt, Mr. Quay or Mr. Hanna. The Pennsylvania statesman visited Mr. Piatt on behalf of Mr. Hanna and his friends, and told Mr. Piatt that Mr. Hanna would like 10 have Mr. Piatt name the candidate for vice-president. Mr. Piatt told Mr Quay that until the presidential question was decided he could not consent to take part in any vice-presidential matter. It is understood that later Mr. Piatt will name a man whose name has not been mentioned In connection with the office.

How tho Delegates Stand.

St. Louis, Mo., June 16.—The latest estimate of the division of the states on the financial question is given to the associated press from the leaders in the various movements and has been submitted to them in tabulated form and approved. The results are as follows:

For gold standard with the word gold in the plank, 330. For silver free coinage, 66. Against free coinage of silver, but without mentioning gold, 304. Doubtful states, 154.

Morton Affreea to Arcept.

St. Louis, Mo., June 16.—As a result of much telegraphic negotiation between St Louis and Albany, it is definitely stated on what is believed to be good authority that Gov. Morton has finally yielded to the solicitations of his friends, and has agreed to accept the vice-presidential nomination, despite the split in the New York delegation. He is now to be vigorously pressed for the nomination.

Michigan Silver Forces to OrKanlie.

Lansing, Mich., June 16.—At a conference of silver men representing all political parties, held in this city Monday, a call was issued for a mass-con-vention to be held in Lansing July 16 to complete the organization of an independent silver party and to elect thirty-four delegates to the national silver convention at St. Louis. James M. Turner of Lansing was elected chairman and George Richardson of Grand Rapids secretary of a provisional central committee. The executive committee was instructed to secure, if possible, Senator Tillman to address the mass-convention next month and all believers in free silver, irrespective of party affiliations, were

Invited to participate therein.

Hotels Refnse the Negroes. St. Louis, Mo., June 11.—Mark Hanna was very busy yesterday. First he turned his attention to the predicament of the colored delegates. He gave a sweeping order. It was to the effect that they were to be cared for tf the McKinley men had to buy a hotel. The leading hotels of the city insist they are full and cannot accommodate the colored men.

The conviction that I was escaping was enough to fill my mind just then. "Swiftly I hurried through the dark woods, and presently entered a cowoath, where my progress was less painful. The rest was then easy, and three hours later I entered a farmhouse, several miles below the Yankees' camp, where the people, wdo chanced to be o( 'he right feeling, cared for me and kept ne effectually concealed until the time tame for me to complete my escape. "I had lost you, colonel, or rather you tad lost me, and when the war was over was never able to locate yoa." "Until now," said the colonel, huskily. "And you escaped irith those dead men!
