The Flag of Truce at Appomattox.

General +. w. Whitaker, who was a
caval,y officer under General Custer, in
correcting some errors that appeared in
the New York critic in connection with
certain war relics in the possession Of
Mrs. Custer. writes Washington cor
respondent of the Detroit Pos', makes the
following interesting contribution to the
incidents attending the surrender Of Gen.
eral Lees army "rhe flag of truce at
Appomattox was not tied to pole and
carried at the head of a little column of
cavalry, but was in the hands of Captain
Simms, of General Longstrect's staff,
who alone met and arrested the charging
cavalry column of ten thousand men led
by General Custer by vigorous flourish
of white towel and an emphatic declar-
alton that General Lee asked the slIspen-
sion of hostiitics. Under General Gus
ter's direction | accompanied Captain
Sjmms back through the Confederate line
of battle to inform General Lee that the
charge would not be halted except on an
announcement Of unconditional surrcn-
der. The truce came into my possession
when Generals Gordon and LOngstreet
asked me to take it and announce the
surrender to General Ord's Federal infan-
try line of battle that was then sweeping
in from the southwestward and reached
an uncomfortably short range,
"My recollection is that | gave that
truce to General Custer, first cutting
from it small piece for myself, and that
General sheridan presented to Mrs. Gus
ter the table on which the articles of ca
pitulation were written, and stated in q
letter to her at the time that the country
owed more to her gallant husband for
the glorious event of that day than tc
any other person. If am wrong, OF
course some of the many living partici-
pants in the event will correct me, and
the truth of history will be reached"

story of a Great Composer.

A good story is told of Verdi when ho
was putting the finishing touches to IL
Trovatore. He was visited in his study
by privileged friend, for whose opin-
ion as critic he had the highest respect.
He showed him his score and asked him
to try the Anvil Chorus on the piano.
"What do you think OF it," said Neryi.
"Tash," cried the connoisseur. Verdi
rubbed his hands and chuckled. "And
of this, and thisl" he continued, playing.
"Rubbish!' replied the candid friend.
The composer rose and embraced his
friend with burst of JOY. what do
you mean by this2' was asked in natural
astonishment. "NIy dear friend" re-
sponded Verdi; 81 have been composing
a popular opera. In il determined to
please everybody except the great judges
and classicists like you. Had | pleased
you l should have pleased no one else,
but your disdain assures me of success.
In three months II Trovatore will be sung,
roarcd, and whistled and barrel organed
all over Italy, 1t must be confessed
that Verdi understood his world.

Subsequently one of the proprietors OF
the saloon was questioned by the re-
porter.
"There are twelve or fifteen saloons
with side accommodations for lady tip

Tenth aud Thirty second streets, and
then there are others scattered all over
up town according to the demand. In
fact, without the ladies' room attachment
our afternoon trade would be apt to 90

too, but we're mighty circumspect whom
we admit after dark, and wonld sooner
they would come at such times under

custom is very desirable. With hardly
an exception only know of one-they
are as quiet and orderly as kittens, take
what is set before 'em without growl.

Beer is their favoritc drink, but the

The reporter mentioned the case of
Mrs. -, the young widow, at which
the saloon keeper at once betrayed signs
of perturbation and hneasiness.

Two Cautions Women.

"All women are alike in their fear of
the cars, said an Illinois Central con
ductor. "Thev carry their caution tc
absurd extremes. That reminds Inc of a
little story. Down in the Southern part
of the State we have up at road crossings
some of the old fashioned signs Look
out for the cars when the bell rings. At
one of the crossings the other day two
women came up, driving an old horse
hitched to buggy. Thev looked all
about and couldn't see any cars, but hap
pened to read the sign. Stop, said
one, hear bell They both listened,
and sure enough, they heard Il bell tink-
ling. One of the women got out, and
amid considerable excitement took hold
of the horses bride. The other one
frightened her grip on the lines, sat her
jaws, and prepared for the worst. They
looked anXiously up the track for the
train, but still couldn't see it, though
they could hear the bell little palmer
than before. They waited and waited.
Five minutes passed, then ten, and still
no train. The old horse went to sleep,
while the women's nerves from long
straining threatened to throw them into
Mysteries. Nearer and nearer came tho
bell against which the sign warned them
and so they stood still. In about a quar-
ter of an hour an old brindle cow came
walking down the pasture by the side oil
the track, chewing her cud and monoto
nously jingling her bell. One of the
women cried from nervousness, and the
other one got mad at the railroad com
pany, and said they were nothing but
mean old monopolics any way. Chiclg'

the height of the buildimg which rendered
the water pressure inadequate, the IN
suficiency of hydrants, and the absence oi q
hook and ladder company from the neighbQf-
hood and il may really be said that the seven
hundred and eighty children in the asylum
were put and kept IN rs much jeopardy as
though malice had threatened instead or
philanthropy seeking to protect them. 1t ap-
pears further that seven years ago The asylum
was officially inspected by an expert from the
Brooklyn Buildings Department. This inspec-
ton was made as the result of a disastrous
theatre fire. But the only defect then dis
covered was that the doors opened inward.
OF course it could not be expected that the
sisters and eccesiastics who had charge OF the
ASYLUM should be thoroughly informed on mat
tiers of this kind but precisely because their
Judgment in the premises was not to be
trusted, the most careful supervision ought
to have been given the building by
the proper public authorities. Now the ques-
ton arises, how many other asylums and re-
ceptacles of crowds of helpless people are as
unsafe as the Brooklyn institution 1t is clear,
after this, that past official inspections cannot
| be relied upon. The Chief Of the Brooklyn
| Fire Department Is reported say ing that
| there are several buildings in the same part of
that city which are rendered insecure by
mansard roofs. Perhaps some of them also
have wooden staircases. Perhaps some of
them also have thin partition walls IL is to
be hoped that the truth will at once be ascer-
tanned as to these matters, and that steps
will be taken to render impossible any more
| such terrible disasters. Under rational sys-
| TEN of local government no asylum or other
similar building would be allowed to be con-
s,ructed until competent and responsible archi-
tects had certified that the plans were such rs
TO afford all possible protection against fire. II
| is plain that the Brooklyn Asylum plans could
not have stood such a test, and this means that
| If the public had been properly served such n
nre-trap could not have existed. The SNOWY
but dangerous mansard roof ought 10 be pro-
hbitcd in all such buildings, and wooden
stailcases and thin partitions also. In short we
want real and not sham iire-proof buildings.
