Mark Twain,s Military Career.

Mr.. Mark Twain, in q speech ct the
dinner of the Ancient Artillery Compa-
ny, of Hartford, described with serious
simplicity his military experience in
Missouri in the early days Of the war.
His company of eleven men biv0uacked
in q barn, and waited for the invader.
1--WE had . good enough time there
at that barn, barring the rain and the
rats, and the mosquitoes and things
We lived ON both parties partially, and
both parties hated US impartially. But
n day we heard that the invaders
were approaching, so we had to pack
up and move. Inside of twenty-four
hours the invader was coming again.
And next day he was after Us once more.
We didn't like it much, but we moved
rather than to make trouble. THIS
went on for q week or ten DAYS, and we
saw considerable scenery. Then Ben
