DEATH OF JAS. r. CoLE.-The sud
den and tragic death of Mr.. JAS. r. Cole,
of the Badger State Manufacturing Co.,
of which we made brief mention last
week, has had very saddening effect
upon this community and that of She
boygan Falls where he was we'll known
and highly respected. The suicidal act
which resulted in his instantaneous death
was undoubtedly committed during a
temporary alteration CT the mind, at
least such was the unanimous opinion
of the eoroner's jury that sat upon the
inquest, and there is actually no other
way of accounting for the rash deed.
Those who were most Intimately ac-
quainted with him say that he frequent
were quite noticeable but no one ever
suspected that there was the least ten
deney TO insanity in him. Although
there are many rumors atioat to the eff
feet that he had premeditated his death
and various causes assigned therefor,
there is not the least foundation for any
OF them. His business matters were all
satisfactory, and gave him no uneasiness
and up to q few minutes before his death
he gave no signs of depressed spirits.
He was born i'll Sheboygan county where
his children are now living, and where
he had numerous friends. Chronicle.

Hot Work at Gettysburg.
COL. w. w. WOOD IN THE PHILADELPHIA
TIMES.

TIMES.
After the limo of battle Ind been
formed, the commanding officers of
regim ents we're sent for to brigade
headquarters to receive instructions
which had already been given to the
brigadiers by Con. Lee in tperson.-
After lthey returned to their regi-
ments, all company officers were as
sembled at regimental headquarters,
and3 then explicitly and carefully
told what work the divisions had to
do, and how: :itIIwas expected to do it .
These instructions were in turn COM
municatcd by the company officers
to the men, and thus5before O shot
was fired, the humblost private knew
the plan of battle and the surround.
ings as well as the commanding
General himself. No disguises were
used, nor was there any undertaking
of the difficult work in hand. All
were informed that Cemetery Heights
naturally very e'rong position, and
heavily defended by the enemy's in
fantry and artillery, were situated
directly in our front and only some
half milo from the crest of the hill
| behind which wo then were; that i!
had been stormed and takon the day
before by Confederate troops bat
could not be held, and Lhat General
Lee regarded it as the key to the
enomy's position, which, if taken,
ended the war. We were to remain
where wo were until sconts could
burn up the houses and stacks of
straw in our front which might im-
pede or disorganizo the advance, and
after that was done signal of two
guns would be fired, and then all
our artillery would open on Cemc-
terry Heights, and continue firing Oh
it until the batteries there were si-
fenced. When they were silenced
our guns would cease firing, and
thereupon every man, without fur~
ther orders, was to 60 forward. We
were told also that long lines of in
fantry, which wo could see were in
line to the right and left of us, and
somewhat to the rear, would advance
i'll eche!on to our support, at the
samo pace and time with us, and
thus all possibility of an attack on
orr hanke would be prevented. This
information was especially gratifying
to the Fourteenth Virginia Regis
mont, to which / belonged, and
which that day was the extreme right
regiment of the line.
II | remember correctly, Pickett's
Division and the artillery wero all
in position by II q. IN. The battle,
however, did not begin for some
hours later. The day was clear and
bright. There was not q cloud in
the sky, and the sun, from whose
rays there was no shelter, shone in
tensely hot. There was no water
near us, and not knowing how soon
lNe battle might begin, no details
could be sent for any. The cantoons
which had been filled at the last
water we passed, were soon emptied,
and there wNs great suffering
from thirst. But there was no heIp
for it. 1t had to be endured. While
waiting for the expected signal, we
saw Generals Lee, Longstreet and
Pickett, riding up and down the
line, and occasionally approaching
the crest of the hill to take look at
the euemy's position. II was then
whispered among us that Longstrcet
disapproved Of the proposed charge
