Az INCIDENT OF THE WAR.-Among the

ChiIlieothe are two gentlemen, now good
friends, whose first meeting was under cir

Mr. P is a Virginan and Mr.. BIS a
New Yorker by birth, and both were soldiers
during the civil war-the former captain in
the famous confederate troopers commanded
BY the celebrated Gen. John S. Mosby, and
and the latter private in New York regi-
ment. In one of the many skirmishes in the
vicinity Of Warrentown, Va, Capt p was
captured by BIS regime Mt, the command
er Of which, in pursuance Of a previous
order from his superiors, to 'shoOt Mosby's
men whenever caught, "ordered the immedi-
ate execution OF the unfortunate captive.
lie was led out short distance from the
command, and a detail of seven men, Of
whom B. was one, was ordered to exc
cute the drumhead sentence. At the word
Fire" the squad discharged their weapons
straight at the victim, and poor b fell
Tiddied with six minnie balls. He was left
for dead as food for vultures, and his execu-
tioners mounted their horses and followed
their regiment in pursuit Of Mosby's The
victim was unconscious Tor twsnty-four
hours, and when he awoke and fesblv called
for help there was no response. With six
CHASTITY wounds in bis chest and covered
with blood, he dragged himself a mile to
negro cabin, where be was kindly received
and nursed for a week until Mosby's forces
had rallied and driven the federals from the
vicinity Then for the first time his wounds
were dressed by surgeon, and in about six
months he TeiOined his command and fought
to the final surrender at AppomatOx His
health has ever since been delicate but he is
energetic and pushing, and is q very popular
and successful salesman, and has no warmer
personal friend than B, who was one OF
his executiOners, or thought he was Chilli

THE SONG OF THE ADvERTIsER.

I am an advertiser great
In letters bold and big and round
The praises OF my wares / sound
Prosperity is my estate.
Thep people come,
Ard people go
In one continuous,
Surging flow
They buy my goods and come again,
And I'm the happiest OF men
And this the reason relate
] am an advertiser great
There is a shop across the way
Where ne'er is heard n human tread,
Where trade is paralyZed and DEAD,
With ne'er customer day.
The people come,
The people go.
But never there;
They do not know
There's such shop beneath the skies,
Because he does uOt advertise
While ! with pleasure contemplate
That I'm an advertiser great.
The secret of nv fortune lies
In one small fact, which l may state,
Too many tTadssmen learn too late
If l have goods l advertise.
Then people come,
And people 90
In constant streams,
For people know
That he who has good wares to sell
VIII surely advertise them well;
And proudly | reiteTate,
/ am an advertiser great

NcKEEsPORT, June, 9th, 1883.
Messrs. Editors The BEACOS's weekly
visits to me, might say, ara like a
drop Of water to a thirSting soul. IL is to me
like visit from a dear friend from my ma
tive home and a. such cherish it and eager
liz devour its contents as soon as received.
am very glad 70 notice that it is growing
in importance and influence. One thing
that pleased me exceedingly in the Issue 81
May 3lst, was the able, fair and cOmpre-
hensive editorial on the tariff question. Keen
ON i'm that line and you will not fail 10 meet
with commentator and success. NY last
was favorably received by you or else il
would not have appeared in your CO umns.
I will, therefore, make another effort TO en-
terrain your readers with some McKeesport
news. During the last three or four weeks,
this community have, in a manner, been on
tue anxious seat in consequence of uncer-
tainty Of the situation Of the iron trade du-
ring the coming year, all parties in this busy
hive Of industry, being either directly or in
directly interested ia said trado. 1 anu
happy to state that the threatened trouble
has been settled by the Manufacturers sign
ing the employees scale of prices for the
coming year.
The most important event that has hap
pened In this town for q long time VIII take
place this evening in the opening Of the
magnificent Opera House just completed.
1t would take too much Of your valuable
space 10 describe this amusement temple in
detail Let il suffice 70 say that in all its de-
tails il is second to none in the State.
The sewerage Of the town is receiving con-
siderable attention from our borough author
titles. IL was very much needed.
Considerable talk is INDUCED in by our
tax payers in consequence Of the School
Board shortening the school term q month,
on the alleged ground Of no funds.
Judging by the amount Of lumber arriving
by rail, and the immense quantity afoat on
our rivers, the building operations Of our
town in the near future win be greatly in
creased. In q few DAYS, the magnificent
new hammer house Of w. ID. Wood & Co.,
win commence operations when il Is conf
IDENTIFY believed that they will surpass all their
former efforts in the manufacture Of planished
Russia sheet iron. May abundant success
follow their efforts, for no firm deserves sue
cess more than this one. Yours, &C.,

SCOTLAND, June 8, 1899.


The State has never sufficiently estimated
the Importance Of female education. The
educated mother carly in life, by her diligent
instruction, determines the mental status ol
her children. Hence it win be found that
great men have had great mothers. 1t is to
he regretted that while provision has been
made for male Academies and Colleges to
the amount Of fifty thousand dollars q year,
but iifty-five hundred dollars have been ap-
propriated for female institutions, divided
between Cambridge Seminary, st. Mary's
Seminary and the Baltimore Female College.
These have all rendered such service to the
State as 10 deserve increased appropriations.
The FREE scholarship in the Female College
for this county is vacant. Application may
he made TO the Orphans Court or TO DIR. n
G. Brooks, President of the College.
