Under Both Flags.

At a Confederate campfire In New York a few years ago an elderly man approached General Wheeler, who waa the guest of honor. “I want to shake hands with you, general," he said, putting out the only one he had.” "Gray or blue?” laughed the general, grasping It promptly. "Both,” was the reply. “I fought with you under the stars and bars, and toy two boys foHght with you under the stars and stripes.”
