A Colonel that Came Down,

In little knot of visitors in his tent
at the state camp at Peekskill, Capt.
Kennedy of the Ninth Regiment, New
York State, said: "When Col. Wilcox
resigned, in 1869, to accept general
ship, the regiment was reduced to the
ghastliest kind of skeleton. When
tried to form my company l was

poral, and one private. Hall dozen

avenue after the drill one night. Some
one suggested that we should ask Mr..
Fisk to take the command It was
then nearly IL o'clock. We went to
his house and told the servant we
wanted to see him on important bust
ness. He got out of bed to see us, and
when we LETT at midnight he had con.
sented to take the colonelcy. On the
first ballot he was defeated, but the
successful candidate resigned and on
the second ballot Fisk was unanimous
ly elected. One month after that we
paraded in Tompkins Square, and my
company, had eighty muskets, Things
doomed then"
Fisk afterward gave each of the COM
panies 81 900 and gave his note fo1
$4,000 for uniforms. At the officers

The Smallest Babv.

Shelves in Philadelphia. Her height
is but trifle over 1-2 inches, and
her weight less than three pounds. She
is round, plump and shapely; as bright
as 9 new dollar and as sound as q

Summers. In spite of her diminutive
size Miss Summers has arObust voice,
which can be heard from the garnet to
the cellar without straining an ear,
and her physician declares she is as
healthy a child as he ever met in the
whole course of his professional career.
Her mother, Mrs. Mary Emma Sum:
mers, is q strong, healthy woman OF
IS years, who is also the mother Of
five other children all of good size.
Her father, Harry Summers, is bar
Der by trade. When questioned about
his youngest daughter, he said: ayes,
she is a little tot, and /, have been ad.
vised to exhibit her about the country
as curiosity. The doctor assures me
she will never attain any size: She is
now the smallest baby that he ever
knew to live Since her birth she has
not grown half inch in height, though
she is trihe heavier. Immediately
after she was born weighed her and
she scarcely pulled the scale down to
the two-pound mark. To-day she
weighs just two pounds and three-quar-
ters, and that includes her clothing.
She was born on decoration day, that's
why we call her Decora."-New York

rick and had come in to ret his gun.
When Edward heard the talk about
the pack he pricked up his ears atten-
lively: '.Faik, Alice" said he, laugh
ing, .'if it's q live pack perhaps I'd bet
ter shoot it" Hold your tongue, you
fool, said Richard. But Edwarn, tax
ing the candle in his turn, declared he'd
have look at the pack, at any rate.
Gliding down the passage he edged up
to the parlor door and gazed within.
Presently he came back with very
different look from which he took
away.
Gas sure as death saw it stirring"
he whispered, land whatever be in
there I'll shoot it." In vain the 9th
ers attempted to dissuade him. Car
rying his gun in one hand and the can
die in the other he FASTENED down the
hall. Without hesitating a. moment
he fired. Great heavens! The blood
gushed out upon the floor like tor
rent, and hideous roar, followed by
groan of death, issued from the pack.
Dropping the gun, Edward ran into
the kitchen like one distracted, and out
at the open door, taking to the hills
like a wild roe in his flight. Alice fol-
lowed as fast as she could; and old
Richard, after standing for time in a
state Of petrefaction, went into the
parlor. The pack had thrown itselfto
the floor, which flowed with blood.
The cries and groans had ceased, and
only q kind of gutteral noise was
heard within. The old man, getting
down upon his knees. Embossed the
cords and discovered the body of q
stalwart man, from which life had for
ever fled.
"Alas! Alas!' said old Richard, tears
running down his cheeks. II wish he
had lived to repent ofthe bad cause that
brought him here"
BY this time Edward and Alice, who
had gone off with the wild idea ofsum-
moning some one to their aid, returned
in sad distress. Having found no one
near, they could no longer leave Rich
ard to his melancholy fate. Together
they took the corpse from it's confine-
ment. The way in which it was packed
was curious and artful. His knees
were brought up toward his breast,
and his feet and legs were stuffed in a
wooden box, another wooden box, a
size larger, but without a bot
tom, made up the vacancy betwixt
his face and his knees, and, there
being only one fold of canvas around
this, he breathed with perfect ease. 1t
was the heaving OF his breast which
had alarmed the servants. His right
arm was within the box, and to his
hand was tied cutlass, with which
he could rip himself out of his contine-
nlent at once. On his person were
tour loaded pistols and asilver whistle
In an hours time they had the house
we'll equipped with armed men, and
when the robbers, who had thought
to establish their confederate within
i'll safety, arrived about midnight,
they were repulsed with unexpected
fury, several OF their number being
killed Or wounded and their bodies
carried away in the retreat OF the 9th
ers. The body OF the robber in the
pack was buried, and it was said that
his grave was opened and the corpse
taken secretly away. No clue to the
perpetrators of this base and bold at.
tempt at burglary was ever found.

From the Independent.
Oh! was it I, or was it you
That broke the subtle chain that ran
Between US two, between us two?
Oh! was it I or was it you?
Not very strong the chain at best,
Not quite complete from span to span;
never thought 'twould stand the test
OF settled commonplace, at best.
But oh! how sweet, how sweet you were,
When things were ut their first and best,
And We were friends without demur,
Shut out from all the sound and stir.
The little, pretty, worldly race!
Why couldn't we have stood the test
The little test OF commonplace
And kept the glory and the grace.
OF that sweet time when first we met?
Oh! was it I, or was it you
That dropped the golden links and let
The little rift, and doubt and fret
Creep in and break that subtle chain?
o! was it l, or was it you?
Still ever yet and yet again
Old parted friends will ask with pain.

Soft as summer weather;
IL you love me, tell me so,
AS we sit together.
Sweet and still as roses blow
Love me love; but breathe it low.
Tell me only with your eyes,
Words are cheap as water;
II you love me, looks and signs
Tell my mothers daughter
More than all the world may know
Love me, love, and breathe 10 low.

A Campaign Secret Given Away.

A Campaign Secret Given Away.
In the campaign of 894 the two can
didates for governor in q "plvotal"
western state arraigned for a series of
joint discussions. Both men were pop
ular, both of fine appearance and were
so we'll matched in mental force and as
orators that the contest between them
promised to be a magnificent one. For
several weeks the scales balanced even
ly:
But one day the brilliant Republican
candidate came up ailing. He seemed
overcome and spoke laboredly. The
next day he was even less effective
Later he was compelled to ask his op-
ponent for a postponement of certain
appointments, which was granted.
Before the campaign ended he had
abandoned the field altogether.
Meantime the Democratic candi-
date continued his canvass, seeming
to grow stronger, cheerier and more ef-
fective with each succeeding week. He
was elected. One eveningin December
while entertaining several gentlemen
he said:
II will tell you q campaign secret
which gave me the election. With the
opening of my campaign began car
