G, A. R. PICNIC WELL ATTENDED I irOXTISt'KD FROM PAGE OXEI short talk on "Why we set aside September 14 for our picnic." She told of the first battle. Murfordville. on the morning of September 14. 1562. Harry Hart. John Evenson and Samuel Chronister were out for some , fun. Having no drums, they were beating lime on empty cracker boxes. , Some one said “listen.” They could , hear pop, pop, all around and somei one said that it was the pickets . shooting the loads out of their guns But all too soon they found out what it meant. Th- officers called then) out in line and marched them to and around the breast works. In a few minutes, the fighting was on. The Johnies came close to the works rnd they opened fire on them, which sept them whirling. On the east of them was a small fort. Sam says , he saw the rebels charge this three times, but Lieut. Mason held his fire until they were very close, so he sent them back with a big loss. After the > battle, fifteen d&td Johnies were I counted. Eight \vere found behind a log. shot through the head. There I was always a dispute between Jake i Elzey and Fred Apple as both'wanted the honor of klllinr them. On September 15. all wqs quiet, but on the 16th. Reuben Bragg came up with , his force of 40.000 men and surroundled them They laid at the breastwork all day on the 16th up until midnight. There was not much l fighting, but they shelled the union I forces all day. At midnight, the commander came up and said. "Lie flown, and rest for wc are prisoners.” The . Vnion forces wondered why they surrendered as I hey had licked them the . day before, but in the morning, ar- ; tillery could be seen all around. On , the morning of the 17th. they march- | ed up tn line and laid down their guns in a io* on the pike. Then they marched :.he 4,000 up in a field. | There they paroled them. From I there, they took them back into the f woods on Green river. While there, it rained. On the morning of Sep jtember 18. they took their clothes oft I and hung them on bushes to dry., , Then they came nnd took ’hem to | Gen. Buhl's army and turned them i loose. From there they went to I Bowling Green and there got some I bread. Sam said he got a cup of cof-' fee from Movers for 50 cents. Thenthey marched btek to Mammoth cave and chmped there all night. On their way to the Ohio river, they stopped at a little town and got corn ground. Some of the boys heated stones to bake their meal while some made mush, -which was jaten without salt or mflk. When they got across 1 the Ohio river, there was plenty of food, but all were so near starved, sick and weak that they could not ! eat much. From there they were ' sent to Indianapolis and sent home for a 2fl-day furlough. [ Following Mrs. Chronister’s talk, [ French Quinn gave an address. The i Rev. Harry W. Thompson gave an impressive talk, and Dr. J. Q. Neptune sang "God Be With You 'Till We Meet Again.” The orchestra played two more selections, and the boys said good bye. until next year. , The orchestra was composed of Mli- '. dred and LiTTian Worthman.

Sept. 15. — (UP) The village ot Linndale, on the outskirts of Cleveland, is just about the wettest place in the United States, accordinc to its marshal, who asserts the place has a populntion composed of 4o per cent bootleggers. The Marshal, "Battling Tom” O'Malia. who was thrust into his own jail recently on charge* of robbery, further asserts that his estimate is extremely conservative and that “al* most every other person in the place sells something or other." The village has a population ot 543. Linndale came into prominence in national news reports a few years ago when the Big Four railroad complained to the county prosecutor's office that it was forced to run its trains at 15 miles an hour through the village in order to keep from running over the intoxicated. One of the chief grievances ot the railroad at the time was that it was forced to make additions to the crews, of trains running through the village in order that a man conld be posted' on the cowcatcher of th engine to look ahead for “drunks.” It was also r.l leged that several Inebriated persons were found sleeping on the tracks.causing trains to be delayed. The flow of Jiquor in Linndale was kept at a minimum a time with the addition of county officers to the village polity force, but recently the trouble has broken out anew Village officers say they are willing to cooperate but add that it's impossible to arrest "half the town. County officials are in a dilemma, and prefer to have federal authorities handle the situation. . ——— nCanadian Wheat Crop Promises To Yield Well Winnipeg, Sept.. 15. —(UP)—Thousands of men from the United States, from eastern Canada and from British Columbia are pouring into the Canadian middle west to help in the harvest of what promises to be another 406 900.000 bushel wheat crop To garner this year's wheat harvest in the provinces of Manitoba. Saskatchewan and Alberta will require more than 30.000 extra men. The hum of the hinder and the har-vester-thresher, the latter the latest invention in farm machinery, is now being heard from Winnipeg to the foothills of the Canadian Rocky mountains. There is a feeling of optimism among the farmers of the Canadian west,' fqr given even a limited continuance of the good weather that has prevailed for the past few weeks, a bumper harvest will be assured. In sofne districts threshing has begun and many farmers are reporting yields of 25 to 45 bushels per acre. Last year Canada's wheat crop totalled 410,811,000 bushels. This year the prospects are that western Can ada alone will produce around 4t)0,000,000 bushels. ■ in in i 'ir 3m Listings of Public Sales will be published Free of charge in this col unin for those who advertise thei* sale in the Decatur Dally Democrat With a daily circulation of 3,800. the Daily Democrat reaches t!l6=e wh* wish *to buy or sell. . ■ 11, Sept. 21—Farm sale.
