literally nobody to oppose them, and they adj
vauced leisurelY.
Sixteen miles above Manning, In Sumter
county, there is o little mill pond known as
''Dlngle's MIL" The stream is crossed by q
very narrow causeway, about $50 yards long.
Here some 800 Confederates- old men, beard
less boys, and convalescents- determined to
dispute the ground with the overwhelming
thousands. Well, they did 1t, and this Is about
how tt was done:
There was young soldier there from Lou
isiana by the name Of Pampereau. He had
one heavy fieId-piece, and this he placed In
such position as to rake the eauseway. At
the same time the gun was concealed from
view. The Yankees had no idea there was
any one to oppose them, the Confederates
being concealed by the huge cypress trees
and underground, and behind rail fence,
just ON the edge Of the swamp. The Yankees
soon came on and struck the CauseWay. Pam
pereau waited until they were In point blank
range, then opened on them. That discharge
Of grape played havoc with the head Of the
advancing column, and so completely were
the enemy taken by surprise that they re-
treated instantly The. Confederates wore
pouring q CALLING fire into them from all
sides. Very soon the Yankee cannon began
TO roar, the shells and balls came fast and ftl-
rious, but all too high. The gunners never did
get the range.
The Yankees now found what small force
was opposed to them, and deplOying on each
side OF the causeway, after great difficulty
and loss of life managed to get through the
DOGGY swamp, and took the little force In
flank. pouring fearful fire into them as they
came into the open field. They fought brave
ly, but ware soon overcome and had to re-
treat the best way they could. The battle of
Dingle's Mill was over.
The Yankees had upwards of hundred and
fifty killed and wounded; the Confederates
some thirteen killed and twenty wounded.
Here died the brave Pampereau, fighting his
gun to the last. His rnangled body was
found beneath his gun, showing how he had
died. / have often wondered Ii his family,
away down in Louisiana, have ever known
how he died

stock, Ice was the last thing any one would
have thought Of as an article necessary to be
used not few looked upon the furnishing Of
ice water to miners as bit Of heightened ex-
travagance. Many stockholders thought it
was luxury that might be withheld without
much inconvenience to any one. It was
men with Ice cream. But as the heat in
creased 1t soon became apparent to all who
knew anything at all about the matter that
Ice was an article Of prime necessity. Now
the heat Is SO great in many places that men
cannot remain In them without ice. Without
Ice the drinking water would soon attain
temperature equal to that of the air-from

RUSSIAN INTOLERANCE.
How the People of Myncleviez Were
COerced to the Orthodox Greek
Church.

The introduction to Tyrrel and Haukell' 8
History Of Russia, now being Issued in serial
parts, has the following: ITO bring all the
various sects OF Russia under the control OF
the parish priest. who is under the control of
the holy synod, and who can command the
assistance Of the civil authoritie5-aye, and
even of the military authorities, II he sees fit
is the great object, for the attainment of
which such measures have been taken as those
that furnished the material for the Blue Book
published recently by the British government
An imperial ukase was published in 1871, sub
jecting all the heterodox or dissenting
churches to the authority Of the holy synod
This Is equivalent to an act OF Parliament, in
England, placing all the noncOnformists,
Catholics and Jews under the administration
and authority OF the Church OF England.
Thus the Uniates were ordered to conform in
all respects to the habits of the orthodox clergy
to alter their churches in conformity with
the system adopted by the orthodox church
compensated Tor any pecuniary loss; disobe-
dent priests to be transferred to some other
place or banished. An inquisitorial commits
sion sat in permanCy at SiediCe, before which
the clergy were summoned from time to
time and examined as to their conduct. These
measures were energetically enforced, but
met with great resistance, especially on the
part OF the inhabitants Of Chelm Lublin,
POpil and Siedice. On hearing of this, Count
TOistoi gave strict orders that the necessary
rigor, and no benches, organs, rosaries mass
bells, ETC., to be allowed In the churches, un-
der any pretense whatever. Most of the
clergy yielded; the peasantry, however, re-
fused to obey this tyTannica1 order and many
conflicts, resulting in loss of life, occurred In
many places. At Myncievicz the peasants
defended their church by force, but were
defeated by the COssacks, and every one Of
The congregation summoned to sign forthwith
b declaration OF his conversion to The orthodox
church. On their refusing, each man received
fifty strokes Of the knout, every woman TWEEN
ty-tive, and every child, without distinction
Df age or sex, ten blows. One woman who
was especially energetic in her refusal, re-
ceived more than 100 blows, and is described
as having her flesh completely mashed. This
was In January, 1874. In February the atroci-
ties recommended; villages were occupied by
troops Of Cossacks, who plundered the
peasants, and "hunted them down"
when they took refuge and bivouacked In the
forests. Fines to q large amount were i'm
posed upon the congregation, their crops
trampled down, and in one case 600 married
men banished to Cherson ION February IA,
1876, and employed In hard labor-stone-
breaking all day long, while their wives and
families remained at home, with number of
Jossaoks quartered upon them. Under such
it is not surprising to read in
Count Toistoi's report 1877) that 237, 600 Rus
sian subjects saw the error Of their ways In
1916, and were converted to the orthodox
aith."

SO Stick to Your Good Old Drunken
Habits"

Early In 1919 the people of the then unrep-
resented towns Of Lancashire and Yorkshire
held meetings, whereat, with view to en-
barrass the government, pledge was gem
orally entered into by the people to abstain
from the use Of any exclsable article not abgo-
lutely necessary to support existence" The
idea that the people should abstain from
spirits and ale shocked the Tories, and Man
chester was covered with placards, which
also were distributed from house to house,
urging the people "to return to their good old
drunken habits TO prove their attachment to
king, church and constitution, endangered by
this conspiracy to promote sobriety." The
expense Of this placard about ESQ., was paid
out OF the church rates, and it was not until q
mandamus had issued that the church war
dens, ashamed, Withdrew the item entirely
from their accounts"

why the Disraeus Left the synagogue.

why Gne Blsraets LefC the synagogue.
Mr. Benjamin Disraelis son Isaac was born
at Enfield In 1776. In 1902 he married q
Jewish lady of great beauty and remarkable
accomplishments, Miss Maria Basevi, the
sister OF Joshua Basevi, an eminent architect.
Two years later his eldess son, Benjamin, the
present Lord Beaconsfield was born also at
Enfield. At that time Isaac Disraeli was q
member Of the Bevis Marks Synagogue, and,
although he was not a regular attendant at
the services which in those days, before the
light Of reform had begun to shine among the
English Jews, were quite out Of keeping with
the views Of SO well educated and enlightened
a mamie nevertheless contributed literally
to the support of the congregation. His son
Benjamin was initiated into the Abrahamic
covenant, as were also his two younger sons,
Ralph and James, by Mr.. David Abarbaned
Undo, the mOtet Of the congregation. None
Of the sons attended synagogue, however as
they lived at Enfield, where there was no
jewish congregation. Virtually they were all
synagogue members, as under the Spanish
and Portuguese system the son of member
becomes one OF the congregation on reaching
his religious majority at the age Of thirteen.
In 1913, when the present Lord BeacOnsfield
was nine years old, an event occurred which
led to the secession Of the family from the
synagogue, and which certainly must have
exercised 8 great influence upon the future
career OF Lord Beaconsfeld. But for this
event he would most probably have become
and remained-what he never has been-a
pEHCblCiIB Jew.
The occurrence to which we refer was brief
ly this: The Bevis Marks Congregation, at an
annual election, chose Mr.. Isaac Disraeli as
p1r7eGss, or president, an office which, be-
cause Of his advanced age and engrossing lit
erary occupations, he declined to accept. Ac-
corping to congregational usage, however, he
was obliged to accept the election or to sub
NIT to fine, and he was accordingly fined
e40, This penalty the father Of Lord Beacons-
field refused to pay, and when the congrega-
ton insisted upon depriving him Of the prfvi-
lleges OF membership In default of payment,
he withdrew from the synagogue altogether.
On March IA, 1914, he wrote to the wardens as
follows:
Il have patiently sought for protection
against the absurd choice of two or three in
ludiclous individuals, but find that you, as
body, sanction what your own laws will not
allow. l am not fit member of your society,
and certainly am an aggrieved one. l must
now close all future correspondence, and am
under the painful necessity of insisting that
my name be erased from the list Of your
as yehjGim* Of the synagogue.
