A Battlefield LOVE STORY.

Apropos Of romantic marriages,
there is probably no man in Con-
gress who can show better record
than Representative William j.
Stone of Kentucky, who takes Oscar
Turner's place in the House. The
story of Stones terrible wound ON
the battlefield was told not long
ago, but the best part Of the story
was left out,
The battle where he lost his leg
was near Cynthiana, Ky. He was
in the Confederate service, and after
the battle was lying on the field,
gasping for water, with his leg shot
away almost to the hip. A Federal
soldier saw him and asked him if he
was not thirsty. He replied that he
was, and the Yankee went off and
brought back a canteen full of
water. He raised the wounded man
and gave him drink, and then in
kindness left his own cauteen by the
side of what he thought to be the
dying rebel. lie said:
81 will leave this, as you may
want to drink again after awhile"
Mr.. Stone lay upon the battle
field for some time, hugging the
canteen to him. The troops had
now all left the field and none but
the dead and dying remained. At
this time number of young ladies
from the town of Cynthiana came to
visit the battlefield. They had
gathered up the ramrods scattered
among the dead, and one of them
finding Mr.. Stone still alive and the
hot sun beating down upon him,
took q bundle Of these ramrods and
stuck them into the earth, making a
half-moon of paling-fence about his
head. Over this she spread her
shawl and did what she could to
case him, This young woman is
now Mrs. Stone, one of the accom-
plished women of our Congressional
society. Stone fell in love with her
on the battlefield and after his
recovery he succeeded in winning
her. -Cieveland Leader.

BALLADE or THE THROUGH EXPRESS

Oh, Engineer of the Through Express
To San Francisco bound,
God speed you through the wilderness
And the shadows OF night profound;
Ring out your CHEEKY whistle sound
Past peak and lone pine tree,
And the grave scarce marked by the
prairie mound,
As YOU rush from sea to sea.
Oh, Engineer of the Through Express,
There's never good man gowneb
Holds more of the strands of happiness
Than are round your right hand
wound;
As you look and lean from your iron
pound
With your elbow on your knee.
While the whirling, whirling wheels 30
round
AS you rush from sea to sea!
Behind you-a bride in her wedding
dress;
And General renowned;
And smiling babe with golden tress,
Like a cherub with sunlight crowned;
And murderer ready to confess,
Should you fail him, or even he
May. outrun the fangs of the laws
duress,
As you rush from sea to sea!
ENVOY.
Oh. Engineer of the Through Express
What rider can he be.
Whose Pale Horse you may ne'er dis
tress,
Though you race from sea to sea?

The Soldiers Monument.

Arrangements have now been perfected
for an informal ballot in all the wards next
Monday, on the question:
Shall the proposed Soldiers and Sailors Monu-
ment be placed upon the site of the Old City Han
lot in Market square?
Votes marked eyes" will be for the loca-
ton in Market square, those marked NO
against that location.
These votes will be deposited in boxes
provided for the purpose, as is the custom III
voting on constitutional amendments. Ihey
will not be mixed with the votes for munlc-
lpal officers, but they must be deposited at
the same time. No man whose name has
been checked will be allowed to vote after
wards. Every voter has an opportunity,
when he appears at the polls, to express his
choice on all questions before the house. He
must exercise it then, or not at all. The
wardens have all consented to entertain this
informal question, and will certify the result
of the balloting to the city clerk in the usual
way though not, of course, on the blanks
provided for the formal election.
