militia of Tennessee. While he was ~
inc HELPLESS in bed, slowly recovering
from several wounds received in hand

terrible massacre at Fort Minis by the
Indians.
The Legislature of Tennessee imme-
diately assembled and called out $500
man 10 march to the Indian nation.
There was great excitement, for it was
feared that there would be a general up
rising of all the Indian tribes in the
Southwest.
General regret was expressed that
Gen. jackson could not take the field i'll
person. In an interview a prominent
member of the Legislature expressed
this regret to the General, as he lay
groaning upon his bed.
The sick man could not speak with
out pain, but he intimatcd that when-
ever the troops marched it would be I'M
der his command. Two hours after the
interview Gen. jackson issued print
ed order appointing the place of ren-
devious, and announcing that the health
of the commanding General was re-
stored.
His physician, on being questioned AS
TO the Generals ability to march at the
head of the troops, replied:
"No other man could, and it Is un-
certain whether Gen. Jackson, with all
his spunk, can. But it was always IN
certain what Gen. Jackson could OF
could not do"
He did march with the troops. Bu'

unless he has previously ordered ga

6 o'clock-an hour when the days work
is over, and when the meal can he taken
Mt leisure. 1t is the social meal Of the
day, and all the guests of the hotel are
expected to meet at the table. 1t re-
uuires never less than an hour-oftener

tanning it is Q long and dreary process.
Perhaps you have been told that there
will he ton or fifteen courses and, If
uninitiated. you have your mind made
up that for once you will have your
usual "square meal" But when the
waiter, with necktie and shirtfront of
immaculate Wilderness, brings yOu a
small piece OF bread, and a dish of
slightly-colored water called soup, You
proceed with quiet resignation, in the
belief that you will have the dinner pres
emily. Your curiosity is only the more
aroused when the plates are changed
and after long, dreary waiting you re-
ceive very small bit of fish. Then the
table is cleared again, and you are served
with bit Of chicken. Like true Amer.
lean you have dispatched your bread long
enough since, and you take chicken and
"play it alone;" but you conclude thai
it is passing strange" when you learn
that buttered chestnuts and nothing else
or bit Of cheese alone, will be servet
for course. And SO you continue fol
an hour or two-in patient expectation
of the meal that never comes. My Yam
