Civil War Stories

A Close Call. During the spring of 1863, we were marching across Missouri to concentrate under Curtis, and I got permission to leave the command and fill my canteen with water at a farmhouse some distance from the road. Nearing the house, I heard a woman scream, and hastening forward, I found in a large room two men trying to take jewels from an elegantly dressed lady. I attacked them with my clubbed gun, and knocked them both down, but they recovered sufficiently to escape. At the request of the ladies, I was then placed on duty to guard the house until the troops had passed. There were three ladies in the house, and they were thankful for my protection, gave me a nice dinner, and treated me royally. They invited me to call on them if I ever again found myself in that part of the country. I started for my command in a happy frame of mind. Hearing a noise behind me I turned around and found myself face to face with two Confederate cavalrymen. One of them said, "Drop that gun, Yank." I was so surprised that I not only dropped the gun but almost dropped myself. They disarmed me, ordered me to mount behind one of them, and went some distance into the timber to a camp of some fifty or seventy-five men, of various ages, unmilitary in appearance, but having an unusually fine lot of horses. Some were lounging about, some playing cards, some pitching horse slices and others grooming their horses. They paid but little attention to me or my captors. I was taken to the only tent in camp. The leader, with a scowling face, ordered the men to take me to the guardhouse. This was a small inclosure of upright poles, and here I was surprised to find the two men whom I had attacked. Three others were with them, and were apparently from the same command. The two men recognized me and made an attack upon me. The guard interposed, and then took the two men out and tied them to trees. The officers held a consultation at the tent, and then we were drawn up in line and the leader said that we had been captured robbing houses along the road, and that we had been sentenced to death. He gave us permission to say a few words, and this privilege I improved to the best of my ability. I told of my encounter and how my remaining on guard had delayed me and caused me to be captured. They examined the two prisoners and found bruises corroborating that part of my story. They told me to step aside and said they would investigate my case later. The others made no satisfactory explanation and were told to prepare for death. They were placed in single file with eyes covered and their hands tied behind them. A private with a new Spencer rifle took position in front of them and a sergeant gave the command, "Ready, aim. fire!" Two of the men fell dead. The third fell severely wounded. The same command was repeated, and the other two fell dead. The sergeant then stepped up to the wounded man and sent a bullet through his brain. The bodies were dumped in to a wagon and carried away. The leader, after questioning me more closely, went with two men to the house where I had been on guard. Soon they returned with two of the ladies, who greeted me cordially, expressed regret at seeing me a captive, and said that I must be released. The leader assembled his men, and said that my story had been corroborated and that my capture was due to my zeal in protecting the persons and property of their friends and relatives, and that he was in favor of releasing me. The proposition was received with general approval. The ladies insisted that I should have an escort back to my command. This also was agreed to upon condition that I would wait until after dark. I was then given the liberty of the camp, after pledging myself not to reveal its location. The men made me feel quite at home and wanted me to join their command. After eating a hearty supper I was furnished a good horse, and, with two companions, started for my command. After a short ride we came in sight of the Union camp. There I dismounted and my guides returned. I marched up to the picket line, was challenged, and not knowing the countersign, was arrested and held by the guard until morning. Then, being taken to brigade headquarters, and questioned, I said that I had been captured and afterwards escaped. I was allowed to return to my regiment and greeted by my comrades as one returned from the dead. The Surrender of Vicksburg. The Confederates marched out of their intrenchments by regiments; upon the grassy declivity immediately outside their fort, they stacked their arms, hung their colors upon the center, laid off their knapsacks, belts, cartridge boxes and cap pouches, and thus shorn of the accounterments of the soldier returned inside their works and thus down the Jackson road into the city. The men went through the ceremony with that downcast look so touching on a soldier's face; not a word was spoken; there was none of that gay badinage we are so much accustomed to hear from the ranks of regiments marching through our streets; the few words of command given by their officers were in the low tone we hear at funerals. Generals McPherson, Logan and Forney, attended by their respective staffs, stood on the Confederate breastworks overlooking the scene. In clothing the Confederate troops presented that varied appearance so familiar in the North from seeing prisoners, and were from Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Georgia and Missouri; the arms were mostly muskets and rifles of superior excellence, and I saw very few shotguns or indiscriminate weapons of any kind. It was plain that Pemberton had a splendidly appointed army. Their flags were of a kind new to me, all I saw being cut in about the same dimensions as our regimental colors, all of the one red color with a white cross in the center. The officers, Federal and Confederate then galloped into the city and to the headquarters---a stone house with low roof and white verandas. Here for a short time were all the notabilities of both armies. In a rocking-chair sat Gen. Pemberton, the most discontented man I ever saw. Presently entered a man of medium stature and heavily built, with a short sandy beard and wearing a plain suit of blue flannel with the stars upon the shoulder denoting a major general of the United States army. He approached

Pemberton and entered into conversation with him. There was no vacant chair near, but neither Pemberton nor any of his officers offered him a seat; and thus for five minutes the conqueror stood talking to the vanquished seated. Then Grant turned away and left Pemberton alone with his pride or his grief ---it was hard to tell which. Grant has the most impassive of faces; but there was then, as he contemplated the result of his labors, the faintest possible trace of satisfaction peering out of his cold gray eyes. Meantime the officers of both armies were conversing as sociably as if they had not been aiming at each other's lives a few hours before. McPherson and Logan now turned back to bring in the latter's division: and a party detailed for the purpose galloped into the city to hoist the national flag. ---Extract from a war correspondent's letter.

(itMirrul !mnII-Io. An old soldier describes what turned out to be a laughable experience of two of his comrades. In one view of it they were unfoi tunate, but looked at in another light their case may be sai t to be "twice blessed;" for they were certainly glad to get in. and glad dor still to Ret out. On one occasion, when, during a .march., they iad halted, th-v discovered an old house near by, and thought it would lie a nice thing to sleep under shingles once more. Accordingly they slipped out of tie ranks, went over to the house, and. spreading their blankets on the floor, went to sleep. About daylight they were awakened by a soldier in chars--' of- the place. "I don't want to disturb you, fellows, but do you know where you are slce;'"No. Is this some general's headquarters?" o; but it is old General mailpox's hospital. It won't interfere with him, however, if sleeping here don't trouble you any." "Whew!" shouted the luxurious sleepers, simultaneously, as they flew out of the place. "Don't be in a hurry," shouted the guard, cheerfully, you're not disturbing anybody. There's only two follows in here, and they're both dead." "Why didn't you tell us, you miserable scoundrel?" "Heeause I was asleep myself. Her?, don't yen want your blankets?"' "Xo! to blaz-s with the blankets!" "All right. I'll take good care of 'em till you come back again. I hope you'll have it light." At this horrible suggestion the men fled back to the line, where, by begging, they got garcnents enough to make a change. It was many days before they got rid of the fear that they had the dread disease, and it was much longer before anyone could say "shingles" to either of them with any degree of safety. Atlanta Dnrlnjc the War. The dudes had no end of trouble in those days. A young man put on his best coat, and forgot to take his pass from the pocket of tho other one. He carried his sweetheart to a reccjr tion, an I after a pleasant evening was returning with her, whpn a soldier brought the bottom of his musket down on the pavement with an ominous thud, and said, -"Halt, and show your papers!" An explanation was made, but it was useless. "I must arrest you," Faid the soldier. 'But, my dear sir this young lady I cnust see her home." , ' "All right," was the reply; "I will walk behind you." And the streu schlier In gray followed the couple home, and then accompanied the wrathful citizen to his boarding house, where the required pass was produced. And this was the experience of hunuicds. Constitution. After Matty Year. A strange story is told of a Union veteran who fought at fiett j sbu.-g Just before entering the action he tool his canteen from his shoulder and hi 1 ir in a crevice in the rock. Then came that fiery hail of shot and shell that swept down regimeuts like fields of wheat before the reaper. At the clo.-e of the battle the soldi. r forgot all about his canteen, nor did it ever occur to him again until be visted the field at a reunion a few years ago. Then it flashed through his min 1, and after a few minutes' search he found it where he had le.'t it on the momentous day. Several Subject.

The announcement that the republic of Mexico is about to make some effort to curb the princely aspirations of Don Luis Terrazas of the State of Chihuahua promises to bring into the public eye one cf the most remarkable and at the same time one of the least known of the world's unusual men. Four years ago a German prince traveled 5,000 miles to visit a "farmer," and this farmer was Don Luis, whose "farm," Mexicans are now beginning to believe, is getting too large for the public heaith. In short, it is the biggest farm in the world. In area it ranks with the largest of European kingdoms and empires, and would make one cf the big States of the Union. It measures 150 milo-j from north to south f nd 200 miles from east to west, or S,0(;0,0fio acres in all. It embraces whole ranpes of mountains, entire water systems, volcanoes, mineral lands and thousands of lakes. Over it roam l.ooo.ooo head of cattle. 700,000 sheep and 300,000 hor?es.

Woman's work at the best Is hard, but is rendered much easier by the employment cf hardy devices which cost but little. The telephoi e and the iural mail delivery have wrought great improvdment In tho lives of the farmer's wife and daughters of the farm and have done more to cultivate the spirit of truo neighborliness than anything else. Tlie ((ueen Iler. The queen bee lives from two to fi9 years, according to the manner in which she is raised. When raised by the naturel way, as by the swarming of the bees, and the mother queen is two or more years old, she often lives four or five years. The life of the workers varies from forty-five days In the honey-making season to five or sometimes six months during winter, taking the time of October to April. Drones very seldom live more than four or five weeks in hot weather. A v I'ear Illaeaa. A new disease among pears has been noted in Belgium. The diseased fruit shows round brown spots, which increase in size until the greater part of the fruit is affected, after which it i falls. In one Instance the loss due to this fungus was great, fully one-half of the fruit being destroyed. Where the peais have been bagged they did not suffer from the fungus. Spraying with Bordeaux mixture, it is believed, will prevent the disea.se. Knailaicc. Corn ensilage possesses numerous advantages for early forage, as it is at hand many times when it would be difficult to get spring crops available for early feeding. An acre of corn will produce more succulent food in the form of ensilage than an acre of any other kind of forage. The feeding value of ensilage i3 so well known that It Is useless to discuss its merits. A C'o-OneraUve Market.

This 12 the easiest and surest way to insure t-trong, rugged chicks that will not be failing ill with "leg weakness" and similar ailments. Scatter all feed in a litter, making the chicks hunt and dig for it. This litter should be about 2 inches deep for thicks less than a month old, and composed of cut straw 01 hay, or chaff from the hay mow or floor. Saw dust is not very good for this purpose, because the chicks usually will eat more or less of it, and sometimes with bad results. Agricultural Kpitoniist. l-'or Seil I'otutocs. Experiment shows that the most economic potato seed is made by cutting a medium-sized tuber into quarters It also shows that larger pieces ot seed potatoes will produce a very much heavier yield, as the young plant has more nourishment to begin with; un der field conditions, however, the me dium-sized tuber cut in quarters is the best ami most economical. If this can not be done, spread the seed out in a thin layer in a cool, dark place, and they may be used at any time within ten days after cutting without appreciable loss. Never sack or barrel the cut seed, nor expose it to the hot sun. The Milker. Many times the milker goes to his task after brushing horses or doing other dirty work, with his hands soiled and his clothing thickly covered with dust. Both soiled htnds and dusty clothing are loaded with germs that injure milk. Before commencing to milk the milker should cleanse his hands and slip on a clean suit and cap, which are used for no other purpose, and which may be easily washed. He should always milk with dry hands and never allow his hands to come in contact with the milk Missouri Dairyman. Poisoned hy V.gKn. That many people are poisoned by eggs, and not by spoiled eggs only, but often by those that are freshly laid and apparently good, is asserted by a French chemist. Numerous cases of poisoning due to eclairs, or cream cakes, have cccumd recently in Paris, and it was in the course of an investigation of these that the conclusion was reached that the toxic action was always the fault of the eggs in the custard, never of mineral poisons introduced accidentally or of the other ingredients of the cream. French eggs, it is said, become infected before they are laid. Ci-m-f"ii t Saw Sniport. Two rieccs of lath or other light strip of wood bored together as shown A ONE-MAN SAW. at 3 in the accompanying illustration, will stiffen a cross-cut saw so that one man will be able to saw with it without difficulty. The strips of wood tend to control the wabble of the free end. A piece of stove wire twisted around the saw and a strip at 2 will aid In keeping it in place. A wire twisted about the laths at a will hedp to maintain the strength. The 1 e of IMaittrr In llnuurr. Land plaster of gypsum is sulphate of lime. Plaster was formerly used largely on clover, bat now in many sections of the country it is rarely used except in stables or in manure piles. This is because it has the power to hold the ammonia by mak-i ing a chemical change, which holds the ammonia or part of it as a solid. In the soil plaster has r,ome effect in breaking up combinations of potash, so they are available as plant food. Siinaxh Units. Striped bugs and squash bugs, which are some seasons so very destructive, are directed to their favorite food by the sense of smell; and a most effective way of baffling them is to place two or three moth balls in each hill. The strong odor constantly given off by these will so overcome the natural scent of the plants that few will find them. Corn from China. The Department of Agriculture is experimenting with corn shipped from China. Plants raised last year averaged less than 16 inches in height, with an average of 12 green leaves at the time of tasseling. The ears averaged inches in length and 4,,;' in greatest circumference, with 16 to IS rows of small grains. 'Hic-lineM of Milk. .What is commonly known as the richness of milk depends upon the amount of butter fat it contains. There is so much difference in the composition of milk from cheese factories that many large butter and cheese fac tories now test all the milk they buy, and pay for it according to its butter fat content.

Her Senl: 1 I it.,l-rally. "Just about two years ago. some form of hiiuiur appeared on ory scalp.

The beginning was a slight itching bu it grew steadily worse until, when 1 j combed my hair, the scalp became j raw and the ends of the comb-teeth would be wet with blood. Most of thi time there was an intolerable itching, in a painful, burning way, very much as a bad, raw burn,, if deep, will itch and smart when first beginning Ut heal. Combing my hair as positive torture. My hair was long and tangled terribly because of the blood and scabs. This continued growing worse and over half my hair fell out. I was in despair, really afraid of becoming totally bald. "Sometimes the pain was so great that, when partially awake, I would scratch the worst places so that my finger-tips would be blood. I could , not deep well and, after being asleep a short time, that awful stinging pain would commence and then I would ' wake up nearly wild with the torture. A neighbor said it must be salt rheu.ni. Having used Cuticura Soap merely as a toilet soap before, I now decided to : order a set of the Cuticura Remedies Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills. I I used them according to directions j for perhaps six weeks, then left off, as the disease seemed to be eradicated, but toward spring, eighteen " months ago, there was a sluit re-' turn ot tue scalp numor. x commenced the Cuticura treatment at once, so had very little trouble. On my scalp I used about one-half a cake of Cuticura Soap and half a box of Cuticura Ointment in all. The first time I took six or seven bottles of Cuticura Pills and the last time three bottles neither an expensive or tedious treatment. Since then I have had no scalp trouble of any kind. Standing up, with my hair unbound, it comes to my knees and had it not been for Cuticura I should doubtless be wholly bald.

Vet He Meant Well. Just as the Jackson Park train was leaving the r.Sth street elevated tation. a man who bad got off there hurried along the platform and spoke to a passenger sitting by an open window in the smoking car. "Quick!" he said. "Please hand me that package. I left it on the seat when I got out just now." ."Sure," said the passenger, picking up the bundle and tossing it out of the vjfndow. "Thanks!" "Hey, there! What are you doing that for?" demanded the wrathful, redfaced man sitting next to him. i ' 'Why, he"You double-dyed idiot, that package belonged to me!
