A War Incident.

The cry of "On to Richmond" awakened
no enthusiasm in the hearts of the "Third
Ohio" one day when they found themselves
en- Toute as prisoners of war for that famous
capital Nor were they enthusiastic when
they halted for the night and prepared to sink
supperess into dreamand.
The Fifty fourth Virginia regiment was en-
camped near by, and some of the men came
down to have look at the "Yanks"
Had your cotfee?" asked one..of blue coat
stretched disconsolately on the bank
Not sup" answered the other.
"Aint you had any rations tonight ~
"0nlya crumb or two from the bottoms of
our haversacks."
This was told to the boys of the Fity-fourth
and old Virginia hospitality showed itself at
once. The men soon made their appearance
with Cohce-kcttles, corn bread and bacon, the
best they had. In a few minutes the coffee
was steaming, the bacon cooked, and prison
ers and captors sat down together around
the campfire like kinsmen true and bro
theirs tried" The hungry, grateful Yankees
ate with relish such as no one can apprc-
ciate unless he has been in like situation.
No wonder there was warm spot in every
heart Of the Third Ohio ever after for the gem
erous Fifty-fourth.

distance is Mission Ridge, which has just been
stormed That long line of prisoners passing
over the pontoon bridge and up the stony
mountainroad is the Fifty. fourth Virginia.
A soldier on duty at Kelly's Ferry asked in
differently of one Of the prisoners, as the regi
ment passed -
"Wlat regiment is this 2"
"The Fifty-fourth Virginia" was the re-
ply,
In an instant the loungers sprang to their
feet and rushed to camp. 1.-THE Fif.y-fourth
Virginia is at the ferry" they shouted, as they
ran in and out among the tents of the Third
Ohio.
The Ohio boys were quickly in notion
Boxes from home and all reserve stores were
speedily ransacked. Coffee and sugar, beef
and canned peaches and the best they had of
everything were freely brought forth. They
remembered gratefully their debt of honor,
and paid it nobly. 1t was the same old scene
over, with the shading reversed. For one
night at least both Confederates and Yanks
enjoyed again the sweet grace of hospitality
that could bring smile even to the grim Wis
age of War Youths Companion.

A Clear Spring.

A certain pastor while out walking came
to brook where poor woman was washing
wool, and stopped and chatted with her for
a few minutes. In the midst of the CONVEX
sation the woman exclaimed
"Oh, my good pastor, how thankful | am
to YOU for those beautiful words in your last
sermon You would hardly believe how much
good they have done me-"
The minister, greatly pleased, rejoined:
"What were the particular words that help
ed you so much ?"
"Ah, no longer remember the words" re-
piled the woman. And when the pastor ex-
pressed his surprise at this she answered:
ut was with me just as 1t is with this wool;
the water that runs through it eleanses it, and
when it is clean and dry you see no longer
any trace of the water. So your words were
like clear stream flowing through my sinful,
sorrowful heart they lightened my grief and
carried away all my doubts. And now that l
feel happier and better, and my soul is trust
full and at peace, know no more just what
were the words which helped me, but know
that they were yours, and therefore l am
very grateful to you, dear pastor"

Mr. Topnoody was sitting by the kitchen
stove the other night meditatively gazing
upon his wife who was busy, finishing up the
work for the day.
"Mrs. Topnoody how old are your" he
said at last in an abstract kind of way.
GLOW old am l, Topnoody That's pretty
question to ask your own wife"
"Yes, how old are you ~ he repeated, with
out noticing the interruption.
"What do you want TO know that for?"
"Oh, was just wanting to know for fun
"For fun, eli, Topnoody? Well, | can't tell
you in years exactly, but Pm just that old that
if | had been that old when you asked me TO
marry you, I'd have been five hundred thou
sands years older before you would have got
me. Now do you know how old / am p"-
Topnoody resumed his meditation and began
to whistle softly, Darling, l am growing
old"

Gentlemen: have used your Silicated Phosphate
Ior the last 1our years upon my Egyptian Sweet
Corn, Trophy Tomatoes, Lima Beans and Pota-
toes and can truly say | have never found any
other Phosphate to equal it.
1t produces the largest crops, makes firmer fruit
and of better flavor, than any other kind.
On account of its fine mechanical condition, abb
sence of moisture and odor it is easily distributed
and pleasant to handle.

yield. Yours, truly,

MIR. JOHN +. MARSHALL:
near SE-Ihis is to certify that have used the
Popplein Silicated Phosphate bought of you for
two years past on my entire range of truck, and
the results have been highly satisfactory 1t is
decidedly the best fertilizer ever used, and
have used several standard brands. have tested
It beside q good compost from my hen-house and
find where used the Popplein my crops mature
much longer, and the fruit is of superior quail
ty. Where used IT on cabbage they were twice
as large as where there was none put. Another
good thing can say in favor of this fertilizer is
that can put my plants or seed in the same hill
with the phosphate without any injury to the
plant 3 Or seed This have tried to perfection.
very truly, JOSEPH STEBBING.
DELAWARE COLLEGE EXPERIMENTAL FARM,
Poppein Siiicdted Phosphate Compdny:
Gentlemen-Ihaye used your Fertilizer for four
years past on the entire range of field and garden
crops and always with the most satisfactory re-
suits.
/ have found It especially adapted to the growth
of potatoes and Sugar Bets, and my crop last sea-
son of over twelve hundred bushels of these roots
was grown with this fertilizer, and their quality
may be inferred from the fact that, in strong
competition, | received six first premiums at the
last fair of the Peninsula Agricultural and Po-
mologica Association for the largest and best dis
play of root crops. The splendid mechanical con-
dition In which your Fertilizer is furnished, and
its uniform quality, as determined by annual
analysis in the State Laboratory of Delaware
College, render 1t most valuable to our farmers
and fruit-growers Yours, respectfully,

Until we meet again! That is the meaning
Ot the familiar words that men repeat
AT parting in the street.
All yes, till then but when death intervening
Rends us asunder, with what ceaseless pain
We wait for the Again!
The friends who leave us do not feel the sorrow
Or parting, as we feel it, who must stay
Lamenting, day by day,
And knowing, when we wake upOn the morrow
We shall not find in its accustomed place
The one beloved face.
II were double grief, if the departed,
Being released from earth, should still retain
A sense of earthly pain:
1t were a double grief, il the true hearted
who loved us here, should on the further shore
Remember us no more.
Believing, in the midst of our Affections,
That death is beginning, not an end
We cry to them, and send
FareWells, that better might be called predc.
tions,
Being foreshadowings of the future thrown
Into the vast Unknown.
Faith overleaps the confines of our reason,
And II by faith, as in old times was said
Women received their dead
RAISED up to life, then only for a season
our partings are, nor shall we wait in vain
Until we meet again,

After liberal use of various preparations he
purchased bottle of St. Jacobs Oil, and to
use his own expression, ut was the first thing
to afford him anything like relief. He has

WHEN.

When lawyers fail to take fec,
And jurors never disagree:
When politicians are content,
Ana laMdlords don't collect their rent;
When ladies don't take time to hon.
And otfice-holders never flop;
when preachers cut their sermons short,
And all folks to the church resort;
When back subscribers have all paid.
And editors have fortunes made;
Such happenings will sure portend
This world will soon come to an end.

tered the expression OF a hearty
desire that Southern California and
Southern Arizona should, at no
distant day, be Joined together in
the formation OF new State.
A RAPID SUMMARY.
Itshould not be forgotten that,
prior to the advent of railways in
Arizona, you could not get a soil.
tary individual who had inspected
the territory, and who had no
mines to sell, to say that he really
believed in the mineral outcome of
the territory. Nine out of ten of
the prospectors who returned from
q trip to the ''sun kissed land"
shrugged their shoulders. and in
sinua,ed, if they did not proclaim,
doubt and distrust. As long as the
Southern Pacific Railway hugged
the borders Of Kern and Tulars
counties, everything was despond-
ent and nerveless that related to
developing Arizona. The Southern
Pacific disclosed it's presence, ad.
vanoing with rapid and resistless
pace, on the edge of the Colorado
Desert and, presto, what q change !
The splendid Silver King mine fret
made its matchless riches manifest.
Then came other mines. Later,
with the progress of rail.
way development, came the
Tombstone district and other
mineral revelations. For thirty
years the whisper had gone out
over the whole country that Ari-
soma was the richest treasure sec.
ton on the American continent.
At the mere first notes Of railway
advance tue territory is making
good all that was ever claimed for
1t. What did the Comstock lode
amount to before the Central Pa.
cific railroad uttered, with poten-
tial voice, the magic "open sssa-
ME ?" And, once guaranteed the
possibilities of development which
were embodied in the snort Of the
iron horse, the Comstock lode
yielded $500, 900. 600. We have no
hesitation In saying that greater
miracles of treasure production are
ahead for Arizona, vitalized as she
Is by the numerical electricity ly-
ing la. .ent in the steel rails which
have now brought her Into contact
with the financial and commercial
heart of a country comprising fifty
