e. Last Saturday crippled soldier
called at our Office and said he had just
come from St. Joseph. that he was out OF
money. and had asked the Mayor OF that
city to aid him 10 getting to Omshs, and
that he had abused him and orde red him
to leave the city. Several of Our citisens
gave him sufficient money to start on his
journey. We don't know much about
the Mayor. but are Of opinion that be
was an active rebel sympsthizer during
the war. A mao who will mistreat .
one armed soldier who has periled his
life in defence Of our country, is con-
temptible. cowardly copperhead. and does
not possess an iota of the manhood that
should be found in an honorable enemy.
= Wathena Reporter.
That one-armed soldier was around
this way and about the only redeeming
feature in his case, is the fact that be lost
one arm by happening to be in the I'm
ion army. We say happening. because
bis natural drift would have taken him
into the rebel army. He csmc here beg
ging money to take him to Omaha. He
hunted up a man who had served in the
same brigade. from whom he procured q
paper recommending him as proper OBJ
ject Of charity. and who headed the list
with subscription. snd also kept the
man over night. The fellow then circu
lated his list. and those who did moi
feel able to give. were cursed and abused
by him. He also spoke in mean and
contemplate manner Of the friend who
gave him the certificate and entertained
him. because he did not subscribe encug Oh
to suit him, and because he had gone into
bis house. after an early morning trsml
after his dram. and found him at famil,
worship. With the first money he raised
he got beastly drunk. Although he re
ceive1 about twenty dollars here. he spen
it about all before leaving for Omaha
keeping drunk all the while. About tn
6rst thing he did. after getting his fill o
whiskey. was to commence cursing th
Odd sinking nsgurs." aud he progress
ed until his msledictions extended to tn
stars and stripes. Soldier as he was. ,b
only thing that saved his carcass was tn
loss Of an arm. He is utterly unworth
of any charity whatever.
