A SOLDIERS FATE.
Return to His Home After
Fifteen Years. Absence of
a Young Confederate
Soldier.
Louisville Evening News.

Soldier.
Louisville Evening News.
Fifteen years ago, when the eyes
of the young men of Kentucky were
turned toward the South in its day
of need, there left this county, in
company with many others, two
brothers who cast their lot with the
South as members Of the First Regi-
ment OF Kentucky Cavalry, under
command Of Colonel Ben. Hardin
Helm, who afterward died at Chicka-
mauga leading the First Kentucky
Brigade of Infantry, the grandest
brigade that ever fought a battle.
These brothers were model soldiers,
brave almost to rashness, and always
at their posts. The younger had a
hard fate. In 1868, when the arm y
began its retreat through Tennessee,
he was shot in the foot while the
regiment was being charged by the
enemy, but never murmured, fight
ing on, until, almost fainting from
loss of blood, the comrade by his
side first learned that he had been
struck.
After weary days of suffering he
recovered, rejoined his command,
and, when Stonema7 was making one
of his raids, was again cruelty woun-
ded, only to again recover and rejoin
his regiment. Sherman swept down
to the sea, the two brothers still
fighting with their command all
through that terrible and hopeless
compaign. At last, in 1866, Ben
tonville, N. c.. was reached, and here
they fought their last fight eide by
side again. The elder brother had
never been touched in battle. At |
the picket stand few days after the |
battle, he drew his gun toward him
by the muzzle it exploded, the ball |
entering the knee-cap, necessitating
Delirious, in two days |
he died, and was laid to rest by his
Exactly one week afterward the
younger brother, dismeunting from
his horse. carelessly set down his
gun ; it exploded, and made CHASTITY
wound In the side and chest. Sher-
man was pressing forward, the South
ern army was receding, and all that
could be done vas to leave the poor
fellow to die, as all were sure he
must do very soon, in the hands OF
he enemy. That was in April,
1865. Two weeks ago the manned
md scrippled hero of more than a
hundred fights walked into the law
,ffice of an old comrade in this city.
After having been reported to all
lis friends and relatives as among
he dead, he had still survived, and,
hough his body is marked all over
With the terrible scars of battle, he
s kept alive by the indomitable
pirit that marked him ever as one
# the bravest men in his regiment.
These words are written by one who
ode by his side when he received
lis first wound. and no member of

cavalry of the G. S. A. but will re-
ognize in the dead brother rash,

hat he may live long in the midst of {
ne circle he has made happy by his

A DeTuded Couple.
Detroit Free Press.


II is remarkable how some young
couples viii rush into matrimony with
out once giving a thought to the NOR
row as to what they shall eat and where
withal they shall be clothed. OF course
if they are economical and have a fair
income the matrimonial venture may
not be so rash as it would be otherwise;
but, alas how often do impetuolls peo-
pie assume the welded state without
giving sufficient thought to the unro-
mantle but necessary subject of dollars
and cents. If they have a little money
laid by they think everything is all
right, and straightway some parson has
a job A sad instance of this kind is
the case of Edmond Rothschild, of
Paris, who is shortly TO marry Mile
Adele Rothschild, of the Frankfort
branch, of the family. This deluded
couple will begin housekeeping on the
picayune capital of but little over one
hundred million dollars.
