Distillers and Spirit Dealers Association
Of the United States is in session to-day,
under the call issued by President H. MI.
Sheffield of Chicago. About 80 members

action for the relief of whisky business,
and says that in addition thereto dangers
are arising at the hands of misguised,
irrational classes of fellow citizens who
are with fanatical zeal and persistency
seeking the destruction of our business by
restrictive and prohibitory state legislation.
1t suggests a reorganization of the associa-

JAY GOULD RETIRED FROM BULLING.

NEW YORK, Sept. 20.-The following
communication to the Stakeholder attract
ed considerable attention in Wall street
this morning: For long time it has been
asked when Jay Gould will be ready to

A Hint for Coffee Drinkers.

While '.dining OUT one day recently,
the coffee, which, though the last. was
by no means the least of the good things
furnished, was SO unusually excellent
that it was the subject of general re-
mark, and word in the ear of the
charming hostess after retiring to the
drawing-room called forth the following
explanation of how the good result was
obtained: The coffee furnished was a,
clear amber in color, rich in flavor and
deliciously aromatic. To give the hos
tess method a fair test it will be no
more than just to don ones apron and
adjourn to the kitchen. The coffee to
be used is Maracaibo and Java, equal
parts of each, finely ground. One large
cup of coffee, one cup of cold water, one
well-beaten egg, mix thoroughly; add
four cups of cold water and place over
the fire. After it reaches the boiling
point allow five minutes to finish the
process; strain and serve immediately.
This seems very simple process, but in
the hands of servant, if allowed to
boil too long, it would be easily spoiled.

officers and l ,143,2 54 men took part in the cam

HER TONGUE DID 1T.

The following incident is related of General
Don Carlos Buell.:
Shortly after his occupation of Nashville he
was driving through one of the streets when an
aristocratic female living in fine, large house,
came to an open door or window, waved rebel
flag toward him and cried, "Hurrah for jeff
Davis and the Southern COnfederacy!" The
General refined in his horse, turned toward the
woman, touched his hat with all the courtesy
and suavity for which he is noted, and, survey
ing the elegant mansion from top to bottom with
an eye of eonnoisseur, quietly remarked IAN
excellent house for hospital" In less than
two hours every room was full of sick soldiers;
and the woman of the dwelling was thus taught
the old lesson concerning the improper use of
that unruly member-the tongue

WHERE THEY COME FROM,

The Veteran Soldiers Home Association of
California has recently been inquiring into the
States represented by resident ex-soldiers who
participated in the late wars, and it appears that
out of 485 men taken at random from among
those now living who served the Union but 213
of them entered the service from California New
York has POI representatives, Pennsylvania 81,
Massachusetts ST. Maine So, Missouri 95, Ohio

Island 6, Colorado 4, Nebraska 1.
In view of such showing Congress ought not
to hesitate in making generous appropriation to
aid in carrying out the good work already so
successfully inaugurated by the noble-hearted
men of the Pacific coast; nor ought the several
States having representatives from among their
soldiery in California to remain uninterested
lookers-on.
Each should contribute to the fund being rails
ed, so that their sons, sharing in the benefits of
the Home to be built, may feel that they are not
altogether dependent upon the muni6cence of
others for their support and the comforts by which
they are surrounded

IN WAR TIME.

Twas terrible fight" the soldier said;
Our colonel was of the first to fall
Shot dead on the field by a e-ball--
A Drawer heart than his never bIed''
A group for the painters art were they.
The soldier with SCARED and sunburnt face,
fair haired girl, full of youth and grace,
And her aged mother wrinkled and gray.
These three in porch where the sunlight came
Through the tangled leaves of the jasmine-vne,
Splitting itself like golden wine,
And fecking the doorway with rings of flame.
The soldier had stopped to rest by the way,
For the air sultry with summer-heat;
The road was like ashes under the feet,
And weary distance before him lay.
Yes, a terrible fight; our ensign was shot
AS the order to charge was given the men,
When one from the ranks seized colors and then
He, too, fell dead on the self-same spot
"A handsome boy this last his hair
Clustered in curls round his noble brow;
can almost fancy l see him now
: With the scarlet stain on his face so fair
What was his name? have you never heard?
Where was he from, this youth who fell?
And your regiment stranger, which was it? tell"
Our regiment? 1t was the Twenty-third."
The color fed from the young girls cheek,
Leaving it white the face of the dead;
The mother lifted her eyes and said:
Pity my daughter-in mercy speak!
Il never knew aught of this gallant youth,
The soldier answered; not even his name
Or from what part of our State he came;
As God is above, speak the truth!
- But when we buried our dead that night,
took from his breast this picture-see!
1t Is like him as like can be:
Hold it this way toward the light"
One glance, and look, haf-sad, haf-wild,
Passed her face which grew more pale,
Then passionate, hopeless, heart-broken wall,
And the mother bent low DER the PROSTATE child
