what he says of the platform +: "Of

the party next year can do no better
than copy it. 1t is, in all respects,
preferable to the tariff plank of 1876,

meaning OF tariff revision and tax
reform as they are understood by
those Democrats who denounce the
present system as a masterpiece of
injustice, inequality and false pre-

WHOLE NO. 2. 2.4SO.

As ne looked, a grand salvo of ar
tillery was fired, and the balls could
be seen to strike the ice.
AT the same instant, with a gen.
eral cry of dispair, heard a mile of,
the whole mass of Russian fugitives
was seen To disappear In the black
waters, and the battle of Austerlitz
was won.
Gabriel saw the emperor COM
press his lips with an expression of
pain, give a slight shudder, and
then turn round and come down
tho tower stairs.
When he made his appearance
at the lower door, his face wore its
usual calm pallor, and he paced up
and down without taking notice of
the cuirassiers drawn up by the
tower, till Gabriel dismounted,
came up and stood before him salu-
ting.
Then the emperor stopped and
looked at him in his sternest way,
saying;
"What! are you here again. l
told you to get killed."
"InStead Of which, sire, | escaped
alive, but l have the honor to re.
port that my regiment took thirty
guns and lost five hundred and fifty
men,"
"Yo,u' regiment" repeated the
emperor in tones OF inquiry. "Where
is Solage ?''
"Dead. sire. Killed in the charge.
l have the honor to command the
regiment"
The emperor compressed his lips
and looked at him doubtfully. At
last he said, with slow deliberate
emphasis
Every WELL. / shall have to give
you the cross, suppose, and make
you colonel. But you need not
think to escape me. l told you to
get killed, and you have not done
it. Instead of that, you have forced
me TO promote you. Young man,
you have had wonderful luck but
it will not last forever. Take your
men into camp, and report to me
tonight, for special ORDERS"
Gabriel saluted and turned away.
For the first time i'm his interviews
with his idolized chief, he began TO
feel troubled.
There was something so coldly
stern, so utterly pittiless In the mar
bic face of the emperor, that he be-
gan to think that his trials were on
ly beginning.
He was promoted, il was true;
but every step that he took in ad-
vance seemed to lead him into fresh
perils.
The emperor had said: "You
need not think to escape me-" Had
he then really made up his mind to
death?
Revolving all these things, he
put his men into camp, and took
off his cuirass. AS he did so he
felt something in his breast-pocket
and found the paper Inez had given
him two days before.

are that its coinage should be stop
ped. The value given this coin by
the government is 16 cents more
than it is really worth; it has al
ready Over-crowded the vaults of

CHAPTER XIII.
DEAD OR TRIUMPHANT

But the French were not destined
to occupy the position which the
Russians had vacated 50 fOoliShly,
without mOleStation.
Presently the brigade of Colonel
Lcnoir was ordered 10 move out to
the rear OF the new position and
beheld long lines of the enemy ad-
vancing to retake it, headed by the
Russian Imperial Guard.
A large body of cavalry too was
seen to come tearing up from a dis
tant part of the battlefield behind
the Russians, and as they halted
each man dropped grenadier who
had been riding behind him to take
part i'm the strife which now be-
came furious all over the plateau.
What was going on in other parts
of the field Gabriel knew not, all his
attention being concentrated on his
own duties.
The cavalry was kept busily EN-
ployed for some time driving off
the enemy's horse, but had not
come to close contest yet when a
staff officer came tearing down from
Marshal Soult and was seen speak
ing eagerly to General Latour
Maubourg who headed the cuiras-
siers.
A few minutes later the same
officer came gallOping up to Solage
and told him:
"You are ordered to come with
me. A Russian battery is playing
the devil to the left and it must be
taken"
SoIage nodded.
"All right. The Deaths Heads
will do it."
They then moved off at a trOt
over the field already well covered
with dead bodies of men and horses,
while the humming of round shot
over their heads told that they were
coming into a hot place.
They found Marshall SOult i'm the
midst of a hot fire and saw before
them Il field covered with smoke.
French regiments, in irregular
masses, fringed with fire and
smoke, were slowly falling back
toward the marshal, several batter
les of artillery were firing away
madly amid dead and dying horses,
broken carriages and all the confus-
ion of losing fight.
The marshal rode up to them and
pointed out into fhe smoke.
''The enemy are there, colonel, I"
he said rapidly. "Lenoir's brigade
will charge their right. 1 want
you to dash at the center. There
are at least thirty guns there and
whether there are infantry supports
or not / do not know. / want
those guns quieted. My men will
support you"

Senator Dan VOORHEES,, the tall
sycamore of the Wabash, who has
always been among the foremost OF
Democratic leaders and who knows
more about Indiana politics than
any man living, has declared time
and again and continues to declare
that the Democrats lost Indiana in
1880 because of the "tariff for reve-
nue. only" plank in the Cincinnati
platform, and if that issue be made
next year the state will treat it the
same way. He doesn't believe that
the Democrats will undertake any
thing of the kind again and they
will not. Ohio has settled it.

so, then we are together, and there
is no ground for discussion between
