night attack had been planned, bat was
avertsd by information given BY . QuAkersss.
Said rumor be would make his apology for
bresch of orders, exculpating himself on the
ground OF its intrinsic moment, and the
assumed ignorance of the commander.in-
chief; SO that the worst he would have to
fear would be q kiad iebuke for overween-
ing, patriotic zeal. He accordingly con-
cocted bis story In set phrase and went
albeit with much misgiving-to headquart-
ers. The Generals room was at the end OF q
long corridor in which an armed sentry was
walking. Being promptly challenged by
that official, something like the folio wing
ensued
Il wish TO see the General Immediately"
You can not, sir; you must know the
ORDERS"
Eyes, know them; but have q grave com.
muDication which l wish 10 make to him

Friend. suppose / know OF mstter OF

whole army-wnich IN hour may render
fatal to US all; don't you see that such
thing overrides your orders, ana that the
consequences of delay will be laid at your
door? / must see him and tell him."
The sentry was staggered by his earnest
ness and the apparent pressure OF the oc-

urgency at length said: "All orders are to
permitl % interruption of the General till
o'clcck. j dare not knock to announce
you. IL tbfpgs are as you say and you are
willing 70 take the responsibility, go and do
SO, ard the Lord save both OF us"
The tfiicer went to the door aud knocked.
No answer. Again. still all silent within.
His heart thumped heavily and he was more
than hslimiDded TO forego his purpose.
But that anticipated laugh at the mess.table
over his failure spurred him to one more at
tempt. Immediately following the third
knock, q sound as OF q chair Suddenly aud
violently pushed over bare floor, was
heard, followed by b savy tramp OF boots
toward the door. With u quick jerk OF the
head thrown back aud face flushed with
anger, stood before him with the exclama-
ton, what does this mean, sirY" The
culprit attempted to summon up his con-
coctsd story; but the expression OF bis in.
terrogator's face, such rs no had never seen
before, and tho access OF q sudden conscious
nets OF his frivolity made him stammer in
utter forgetulness OF his welldigested words.
But not for long; for Washington out him
short with "Begone and consider yourself
under arrest, sir.h As hs tarned TO sneak
away he heard these further words shot at
the sentry, DO you know your orders1'
"Yes, General, but-'
Then obey them. and IL this occurs again
| will thrust your bayonet through your
cursed body"
Then succeeded bang OF the door, more
heavy footballs md the usual silence.
What were the ultimate results to the
officer OF this eacapade my informant did
not know. He won his bet, bat was accus.
toned TO say that be would rather encounter
drum.head court martial than TO have
faced that look and act OF Washington.

space of the building and has nearly all the

PARSONS, KAN, Sept. S-A heavy rain
storm set in here Saturday night and the
rain continued to pour down, with but
brief intervals, until late yesterday after
noon. The streets of the city were
flooded and the water rushed through
them with fearful velocity, covering the
sidewalks and flooding cellars. The
creeks in this section are all out of their
banks again for the third time this season,
and farmers living on the low lands are
again subjected to great damages and loss.
This city is surrounded by water which in
some places is several miles wide. Many
people living in the suburbs along Cabett
creek, have been forced to vacate their
homes and seek higher grounds. Some
stock has been drowned, but no human
lives lost. The Kansas City, Fort Scott 81
Gulf has two washouts just east of here,
and no train from Kansas City has come in
over that road since Sunday night. The
Missouri Pacific track is still solid, but in
several places east and north the water is
running over the track and washouts are
feared should more rain fall.

association to the British pharmaceutical
conference in session at Abelite college,
England, the meeting adjourned till morn

to be brought up will be the report from the
committee on unofficial formulas and pat
ent medicines, which will recommend that
laws be enacted compelling manufacturers
of patent medicines to publish on each
bottle or package the formula under which
the medicine is made. Great opposition is
anticipated from the large monied interests
involved,
