horse to pray. And here it was he sat his horse, was wounded, held his men in stubborn line that day, while the storm of battle beat against them, and so won his singular name. On the front of this sloping hill that lies here, be- tween this.house and the place where Jackson sat his horse during the battle, the dead lay thickest when the fight was done. The corn is rank and tall. But do not see, as some pretend to when looking over the field of Waterloo, that the blood of brave men has put any par ticular mark of vitality ttpon it. The truth is, if some one did not point out to you all this, you would know nothing whatever of the battlefield of Bull Run. Nature covers up all such scafs; time heals the wounds on the breast of our common mother, as we'll as our own. Wander about here for week, as have done, and save for one little brown stone mon- ument here, the old earthworks at Man. assas and some scared old trees, you would not know there had ever been any battle here. have picked up one bull let and one button from soldiers coat; that is all. But on the earthworks near Manassas, under peach tree, while picking up peaches, I found an Indian arrowhead. Think of it, and follow these two facts. What other battles, what other races had fought for the fields of Virginia ages and ages before !?
 Not many people come to visit this battlefield. I have seen thousand at Waterloo for single visitor here.
 The great trench where the dead were buried on this sloping hill, immediately under where Stonewall Jackson sat his horse during the battle, is still trench. This is sore that refuses to heal. It has become 8 little drain or rivtllet. The bones of the dead were mostly taken away at the close of the war; and this opened the trench anew. This portion of the battlefield is 8 pasture now. A little line of trees has grown along the banks of this trench. Under these rank young trees @ good many sleek-spotted cattle stood yesterday chewing the cud and lazily switching flies. You never hear sound of any kind around here at all, no coming and going of carriages as at Waterloo and other great battle fields of Europe. The trees are turning little red in the blush of early autumn. There is hay gray atmosphere over all here which makes the stiffness seem more still; a weary ghost of the smoke of war. In the corners of the old Vir- ginia worm fences the wild berry grows rank and red, as if dripping with blood. The very earth is red, as if the bosom of mother earth bleeds perpetually for her brave dead who fell in the battle here.

Making a Reputation.

There is story, at his own expense, which the late Professor Moses Stuart Phelps used to tell with great glee. In the days when he was graduate stu dent at New Haven, he took walk one morning with Professor Newton, man who lives in the world of mathematics, and simply exists in the common world of ordinary things. Professor Newton, as is his habit, started off on the discus sion of an abstruse problem. As the Professor went deeper and deeper MT. Phelps's mind wandered further and further from what was being said. At last MT. Phelpss attention was called back to his companion by the Professor winding up with, (Which, you see, gives us K" 'sDoes it?" asked Mr. Phelps, thinking that in politeness he ought tc reply something. "Why, doesn't it 9 excitedly proclaimed the Professor alarmed at the possibility that flaw had been detected in his calculations Quickly his mind ran back over the work. There had indeed been mis take. ''Your are right, Mr. Phelps, YOU are right" almost shouted the Professor ''It doesn't give us X, it gives us 'y.' | And from that hour Professor Newto1 looked upon MT. Phelps as mathe nautical prodigy. He was the first mar who had ever caught the Professor trip plug. "And so," MT. Phelps used ofte1 to add, with his own peculiar smile, il telling the story, ''I achieved reputa tion for knowing 8 thing I hate. It. the way many regulations are made il this superficial world"

A Pleasant Walk Home.

A member of the Chicago Board of Trade sent his confidential clerk to Iowa during the late cold snap to find out what damage had been done to corn by frost, and wire the result. After getting about one hundred miles into Iowa the clerk telegraphed: '"Crop failure; buy at once." He bought 5O,OOO bushels. "Crop ruined; buy all you can, " was the result of fifty more miles of travel in Iowa. Board of Trade man, exulting in his wisdom in sending 8 competent man out to see how things were, bought 50,O0O more bushels and began to calcu- late what he should do with his gains. Then corn went down, and not possess ing staying qualities he sold out at a loss of $2,OO0. Then came his turn to use the wire. The clerk had by this time nearly reached the Missouri River. ''The further you go the longer your walk will be, "was the first telegram. ssI do not understand" wired the clerk in reply. "I mean that your reports have cost me $2, ,000 and that you can walk back from wherever you are. No re- mittances from me-" And the clerk ii walking in. ~'.-.r.'. -+~ ~...>-s.- '~

"Baby Cried and Jack Cried"

It has been going on for year past Jack is carrier for one of the dailies, and his circuit takes in 8 house on Scott street. One day last spring 8 baby crowed at him from an open door on that street, and Jack tossed an apple into the hall. The next day the baby was watchingfo for him, and after three or four days the boy made bold to slip up the steps and pat the little chap on the head and leave the stick of candy he had purchased two miles away As time went on Jack came to know that the baby was fatherless, and that its mother was pale-faced and hardly able to drag about. It was weeks before she spoke to him, but the baby took to Jack right away and was always ready for his coming. After the first week it was al- ways clean-faced, but it was good while before Jack reused up the courage to give him kiss and ask for one in re- turn. After that it was plain sailing, and the neighbors became interested. It was queer enough that boy like Jack, having his own way to make and rough h. ing it until he had become suspicious and hard-hearted, should catch on to 8 little whitehead, and become more than big brother to him, but that was what happened.
 And something more. One day he brought up quarter of pound of tea and left it where the mother would find it, and this was followed by other par cels and articles. One day he missed the baby and crept into the hall to find that he had cried himself to sleep and that the mother was ill and helpless. Jack reused up the neighbors, and what ever was eaten in that house for the next two weeks was purchased with Jack s money. The mother could only thank him and weep She could not speak ten words of English.
 A fortnight ago Jack missed baby ill. Friends were with her this time and she did not suffer for care. A week ago there was crape on the door as the car rier went his round, and baby had been carried off by neighbor. When Jack came round next day, the mother had been buried and people were watching to tell him that the house was to be va cated and the baby was to go to a dis tant city. He had been brought back to bid the carrier goodbye, and the poor and lowly people drew off with tears ill their eyes, and Jack sat on the door steps and took baby in his lap and smoothed his white head and kissed his red cheeks. Baby clung around his neck and seemed to realize that he was to lose friend, and, as one who stood by expressed it:
 "Then baby cried and Jack cried, an6 the women put their aprons up an6 sobbed like children. When they finall, took the child away Jacks heart wa big enough to break, and throwing hi arms around the little chap for the las time he turned and ran away and neve looked back r'-Detroit Free Press.

BILL ME, EX-POSTMASTER.
He Successfully Accounts for the PrOs- tritiOn in High Government Circles.

In the course of an interview at Laramie the other day Bill Nye was asked:
 "You are still Postmaster here, are you not?"
 "Yes, the jig will soon be up or words to that effect. My resignation has gone in to Washington. It created great deal of excitement thereabouts: Per haps you've noticed that all the dis patches sent out from the national capi tai the last few days have dreary. list less, funeral-at-2 g. O clock air about them, as though there was something wrong at headquarters. My resignation has brought this about. I tell you candidly things are looking pretty blue there just now. Old Greash, the Postmaster Gen. eral, you know, telegraphed to me as soon as he received my little note. He says: Reconsider your resignation. I beg of you, Billy, don't go.' I answered the telegram, telling him it was ground hog case-I had to go. Then Frank Frank Hatton-Frank he wired me: For the sake of old love, don't shake us now. The mail service won't rank any higher than our navy if you leave it. Cancel resignation at once.' I replied that hated to refuse, but couldn't help myself; like the pig-tailed persimmons I must go. Then Chet, he telegraphed me. His message was as long as his trip across Wyoming to the park. He said he felt as though three feet or four cogs ill the wheels of government had broken, and that unless I consented to come back into the fold he feared the blamed old machine wouldn't t run much longer. I tell you honestly I was so affected by his message that I shed few weeps be- fore could muster up spirit to answer it. I told him that I was sorry, but must insist on my resignation being accepted. told him, however, that if he really needed my assistance I might take the position of Postmaster at New York city, and here I paused for reply. have paused ever since.
 "Who will succeed you here?"
 "Well, that's hard question to an- swer. As near as I can learn, about every man in town, except one, has ap- piled for the position. The one man that refer to is in jail charged with the abduction of 8 youthful and innocent mule. I believe, however, that he also wrote out an application, but that the jailer suppressed it. I am very busy just now with my new book. I've con- cluded to try one more dose of my medi- cine on the dear people. It's pretty tough-on the people-I'll admit, but I don't seem to mind it much. I believe man gets hard-hearted as he grows older; don't you?
