The Bogardus Kicker in War.

While Colonel Jenkins, OF Con-
federate cavalry fame, is not re-
membered to any great extent as a
fighter, he did bit of work at Hag-
erstown during the Pennsylvania
campaign which caused General
Mead to say that he should be trea-
ted like gentleman In case he ever
fell into Federal hands as a prisoner
The colonel was left in the town for
day or two to hurry up. COnfeder-
ate stragglers and pick up news, and
halfa day after the last regiment
had passed on six or eight Federal
soldiers, among them a lieutenant
and first sergeant, appeared at his
headquarters and desired to surren-
der. Come to question them, Jen-
kins ascertained that they had de-
liberately left their regiments and
hidden themselves away for just
this opportunity. He wasso indig-
nant that he refused to receive their
paroles, but on the contrary, order
ed them to be taken to his picket
line and kicked out of sight. A de-
tail of champion kickers was made
for this purpose, and the sole leather
was applied with all the vigor pos
sible TO be had from leg muscle.
The officer was held up by two men
and booted by third until the
kicker could kick no more.-M.

planted and are classed as Shipping
Leaf Mr.. J, H. Dunn, near Barren
Plains has been raising the "weed"
for thirty-five years he has in Gull
tivation, this season, $50 acres,
which he reports 10 be in excellent
condition. The yield in the county
ranges from 700 to 200 pounds per
acre exceptional crops run to 1 800
and occasionally 1000 pounds. The
growing crop needs rain; plants
good growth but leaf is narrow. Mr..
J. S. Williams, near HOlmansville,
living in an excellent tobacco sec
tiOn-and, by the way, Mr.. Will

ums for best Shipping Leaf at the
