A WAR STORY.
Stanton's Opinion of Lincoln, in Which the

nature.

Denver News
Among all the sturdy heroes of the war
who were mentioned in speech and song at
the late reunion of the Grand Army all
Secretary of War, was omitted by orators
and writers AS an evidence of the high
esteem in which he was held by the Presi-
dent, it is related that during the early part
of the war the western men, as they were
then called, had poor opinion of the fight
ing qualities of the men of the east, and,
headed by Owen Lovejoy, of Illinois, devised
a scheme, which they thought, would prove
this theory, and be at the same time OF inn
mense service to the army in the East.
Armed with all the details of the plan,
a committee, headed by Lovejoy pro-
ceeded to Washington, and, calling upon
President Lincoln, unfolded to him the
wonderful scheme OF transferring $4,000
Eastern troops to the army OF the West, and
supplying their places with ali equal number
OF Western men. Their eloqueuce and plausi-
BILE arguments convinced the President to
the extent that he gave them an order to
Secretary Stanton 10 carry out the details of
the plan as proposed. On entering Stanton's
office he was found busily engaged in writing,
and without looking up he desired to know
the object of their visit.
Lovejoy explained the scheme as he had
before done to the President but was met
with q fat refusal by the Secretary.
But we have the Presidents order, sir"
said Loveioy.
Did Lincoii give you all order OF that
kindg' queth Stanton.
He did sir
Then he is - fool" said the irate Sec
rotary.
"Doyou mean TO say the President is -
fool?' asked Lovejoy in amazement.
Eyes, sir; if he gave you such an order as
that"
The bewildered Illinoisian betook himself
at once to the President and related the re-
suit of his conference.
"Did Stanton say l was - fool?' asked
Lincoln at the close of the recital.
HE did, sir; and repeated it,"
With that peculiar far-away look for
which the President was noted, he looked up
after a moments pause and said:
"If Stanton said l was a - fool then
must be one. for he is nearly always right
and generally says what he means. l will
step over and see him."
This ne proceeded to do, and Stanton con-
WINGED him in very few minutes that the
plan proposed would be taken as an insult By
the whole East Her soldiers would stop en-
listing and her capitalists withhold the solid
assistance they had been previously furnish
ing the North. thus adding largely to the
confidence which the President had previous
reposed in him.

and yesterday they concluded to settle their
differences forever. They spared around in
the water for a while, neither one seeming TO

dog executed flank movement on the moe

OF his tail and body. Instead of the
moccasin trying to free himself,
he laid perfectly quiet and commenced pump

he sweled up the water-dog tried to back
Off but it was TOO late 1t was like trying to
pull boot off a swollen foot. The mecca
sin kept on pumping and the water-dog con-
tinued to expand. AS he spread out you
could hear his ribs crack, and l expected
every moment to see him fly into thousand
pieces; but suddenly the swelling ceased, for
the noccasin had gone the full length of his
expansive powers, and he commenced to
contract. Reduced to his ordinary size, the
water-dog lost no time in slipping of, but he
was so weak from the terrible strain he had
received that for a moment or two he was
powerless The moccasin took advantage of
this and, turning on the dog, swallowed him
whole. Then followed one of the most re-
markable occurrences ever witnessed.
The dog evidently scared almost
to death, began galloping back and forth the
full length of the moccasin. BY the waving
ridges on the snake every movement of the
dog could be told. Back and forth he went
until the friction inside the snake must have
been terrible, for the water began to get
warm from the heat of the moccasin's body
Every time the dog would gallop toward the
head of the snake the snake would close its
mouth, causing the dog to turn and run
away. This performance was kept up for
fully an hour, during which the water grew

TIE ROMANS AT OSHKOSH.
Disposing of the Claim that the Town was
Once a Roman Resort.

Disposing of the Claim that the Town was
Once a Roman Resort.
New York Times.
Somebody has dug up near Oshkosh an al
legged Roman coin of the Emperor Hadrian,
and the people of Oshkosh are now beginning
to boast that nearly 1000 years ago their
town was a popular Roman summer water
ing-place.
Its pity to undeceive the Oshkoshians
but the truth of history demands that no
false inference shall be drawn from the find
ing of so-called coin at Oshkosh. 1t is
hardly necessary to say that there is no
mention of the town in any work written
during the existence of the Roman empire,
unless we assume that Oshkosh was originally
called Ostia That no Roman ever visited
Oshkosh and left money there is, however,
absolutely certain; for no Roman could have
travelled that distance and still kept any Ro-
man coins in his pocket What money the
New York confidence men" did not take
from the Roman tourist would intallibly
have fallen into the hands of the Niagara
hackmen, and the unhappy tourist would
not have had enough left to reach Oshkosh.
Assuming that any ancient Roman ever did
visit Oshkosh, he undoubtedly carried his
money in the shape of drafts on the Oshkosh
bank and not in Roman coinage.
What the Oshkoshians believe to be
Roman coin is probably a brass campaign
medal of the period OF Lincoln and Hamlin,
and 1t is the name of the latter that has been
mistaken for that of Hadrian. 1t might be
pointed out that the description of the al
legged coin alone shows that 1t is not a Roman
coin, but nicetles of this sort would proba-
bly, have no effect upon the Oshkoshian
mind The idea that the ancient Romans
used to visit this country is, OF course, an in
teresting one, but it cannot be regarded as
fact on the unsupported authority of single
alleged coin.

A DUKES TRAGIC DEATH.
Story of the Stabbing in Theater of the
Count de Chambord's Father.

st. James Gazette.
The circumstances of the Duke de Berri's
murder were very dramatic-not only by
their theatrical surroundings (for the per-
Torrance still went on while the Duke was
expiring in the managers private apart
ments) but also by the striking manner in
which his whole life, with his double mar
riaee and his two families was concentrated
in the last few hours of his existence. The
opera or operetta of the evening was at an
end, and portion of the ballet had been
played. when the Duke accompanied the
Duchess to her carriage, intending to return
to his box in order to see the remainder of
the performance Then it was that the as
sassin grappled with him and pierced him to
the heart The Duke was carried to the di-
rector's room, and, in accordance with the
practice of the day. was at once bled in both
arms. The internal hemorrhage was still so
great that it was thought necessary to widen
the orifice of the wound, and the oper-
alton is said to have afforded the
patient some temporary relief By this time
the Count d Artois (afterward Charles X)
and the Duke and Duchess of Angouleme
had arrived. There" says chroncler OF
the scene, "lay the unhappy Prince on bed
hastily arranged and already soaked with
blood, Surrounded by his father, brother,
sister and wife, whose poignant anguish was
from time TO time relieved by some faint
ray of hope, destined soon to be dispelled.
When Dupuytren, accompanied by four of
his eminent colleagues, arrived, it was
thought for moment that the Duke might
yet be saved. But it soon became evident
that the case was hopeless. The Dukes
daughter Lad now been brought to HIM, and,
after embracing her several times he ex-
pressed a desire to see the King (Louis
XVIII.) Then arrived two other daughters,
the children of the marriage, formal or in
formal, that he had contracted in England.
The Duchess, seeing them now for the first
time, received them with the greatest of
kindness, and said to them: Soon you will
have no father, and l shall have three
daughters. "
In neighbering room the assassin was be-
ing Intercepted by the Ministers Decase and
Pasquier, with the bloody dagger on the

in the presence of an enthusiastic public. In
the course of the night the King arrived, and
his nephew expired in his arms at $50 the
next morning, begging that his murderer
might be forgiven, and entreating the
Duchess not to give way TO despair.
