We clip the following items from the
camp notes in the Chillicothe Register of
Saturday:
Charlie Bell, the FIRST Lieutenant of the
Ely Guards, of Washington, is universal
ly admitted to be one of the finest looking
and most soldierly officers in the Sixth:
Regiment.
The Ely Light Guards, Co. B. is the
company. .along with the Sill Guards that
were ordered to Newark last Summer.
The recolIectiOns and pleasant associaS
tiOns formed between these two compan-
les during that short campaign, will not
soon be forgotten. so
Capt. B. H. Millikan, an old time army
friend, has command of the Ely Light
Guards, Go. b. He is an efficient Off
Ger and socially one of the pleasantest
gentlemen we ever met. The company
could not do otherwise than acquire an ex-
cellent state of proficiency while under
his command. The boys appreciate him.
and entertain that high regard for him to
which he is entitled.
| Company 'B" boasts of large number
of EEboys" who have seen service when to
don the blue meant something more than
to play soldier.
Capt. pC.Millikan was member of the Hath
| Ohio, and Lieut.. Bell q member of the
! 22nd and 73d Ohio. ..
Lieut.. j. L. Millikan enlisted in 1861,
the next day after the proclamation by
Abraham Lincoln for "a, 900 men was is
sued, and was mustered into the 9th In

renowned Major General Milroy

The Great Napoleon.

the first Emperor of the French, the
stamp of whose foot carried CONSERVATION
to the Councils of Europe, and the tread
of whose rmies brought destruction and
misery for so many households of the old
world, has, happily for the peace of ma
tions, passed to his account, and his bones
rest peacefully in the Capitol of the nation
that his achievements raised to the high
est eminence of military glory. Could we
suppose it otherwise, and imagine the
grand Bonaparte now mounting his favor
ite war steed,to head his hosts to the con-
quests of the Russians, thus, we may sup
pose, would read his first great field order

modated the grand emperor. They pre-
fer home business, and will sell to the
people of old Fayette boots and shoes of
the best workmanship and material at
lower prices for greenbacks than they
ever priced them to the little corporal for
French gold. The truth of this assertion

As respectable and respected banker

walking home from the cars, he met a
haggard and desperate-looking man at a
lonely corner, and discovered that he was
one of the former employees OF the bank,
discharged some months before. "Wh
what do you want?" nervously in
quired the banker. "Times, sir" said
the other, in hoarse, changed voice,

ened ominously in the moonlight.
/" Ye--yes," timidly faltered the banker.

swore an awful oath that / would wait

An Excellent yarnish for Harness.

Procure at the druggists or apothe-
cary's store half pound or pound of
gum-shellac, according to the quantity
desired; break the scales fine, and put
them into q jug or bottle; add good alco-
hol sufficient to cover the gum; cork
tightly, and place the jug where it will
be kept warm. In about two days, if
the bottle or jug is shaken frequently,
the gum will be dissolved and ready for
use. If the liquid appears as thick as
thin molasses, add more alcohol. To
one quart of the varnish add one ounce
of good lampblack, and an ounce of gum
camphor. Such varnish will not render
leather hard; but it will keep the har-
ness from being soaked with water, and
will keep the surface clean and neat for
long time. A coat of such varnish will
effectually prevent the oil in the leather
from soiling ones hands. Nothing is
better to render farmers boots water
proof than an occasional coat of this
leather-varnish.

A Millionaire Convict.

Jacob Huntzinger, of Pottsville, be-
gan life as poor but energetic and
penurious boy. He made money. mar
ried thrifty wife, went into timber,
land and colliery speculations, grew
rich, and was mean to miserliness. At
length he determined to go into banking.
He changed the Life and Fealth Insur-
ance Company into the Miners Life In
surance and Trust Company, was elected
President, and bought up the most of
the stock. Deposits poured in, and the
profits were enormous, the dividends
ranging from Is to 40 per cent. These
dividends were not, however, earned
The reputed millionaire made unlucky
investments, and saved himself from
ruin by misusing the funds of the bank.
He tried to conceal the truth by keeping
up the big dividends, but, when con-
cealment was no longer possible, the
bank suspended. The Developments
showed systematic fraud on the part of
Huntzinger, the President, and his son,
the cashier. They were indicted, con-
victed, sentenced to two years in Jail,
and, at the age of three score-and-ten,
Jacob Huntzinger is in prison cell,
and his son is in another.

The Dardanelles.

The Dardanelles, toward which so
much attention is now directed, fairly
teens with historic and poetic memories.
It's navigation was first attempted by the
Argonauts under Jason, in their search
for the Golden Fleece. At Abydos,
Xerxes built his famous bridge of boats
for the invasion of Greece, and it was
here that the loves of Hero and Leander
became world renowned. Leander, who
lived at Abydos, on the Asiatic shore,
was in love with Hero, the beautiful
priestess of Venus, at Sestos, and regu-
larly swan the strait to meet his mis-
tress. One dark and stormy night he
failed to appear, and when the luckless
Hero visited the shore the next morning
the waves had washed the dead body of
her lover upon the sands. Overcome by
her loss, she plunged into the sea, and
the spot became ever after sacred to
their memory. On the 3D. of March,
1910, Lord Byron swan the Dardanelles
at the same point in seventy minutes.
He was accompanied by Lieut.. AIKEN
head, whose name has been handed down
10 posterity in the line:
Which Leander, Mr.. Akenhead, and did.
The swim from Abydos to Sestos is still
repeated yearly by Byron-inspired tour
lists, and will probably continue to be as
long as the glamour of poetry and tradi-
ton hangs around the spot. -Neto York

A young man well known about Mill
stone is in the habit of riding to and
from New Brunswick in the cars. One
Saturday night not long ago he was in
New Brunswick, without penny in his
pocket, and wanted to get home. He
told the conductor his situation, and
asked to be passed over the road, and
he would pay when he returned on Mon
day. The conductor, knowing the
young man well, acceded to his request.
When the fellow reached home he wrote
O plausible letter to the railroad COM
pany, to the effect that they had better
be looking after their interests on that
road, as the conductor was in the habit
of passing his friends free, whereupon
the conductor was suspended and is now
out of employment.-Somerviil (M.
