The Crazy Scout.

Bragg's army was at Stevenson, Ala.
for several days before falling back to
Chattanooga and Lookout Mountain.
The Army of the Tennessee was press
ing the confederates closely, and it was
necessary to preserve strong picket
lines at all times and keep the scouts
constantly on the lookout to avoid sur
prises.
The picket lire of Bragg's army ex-
tended several miles, in order to watch
the different roads leading to Chat
tanooga.
North of Stevenson was range of
mountains known as Walden's Ridge,
which was covered with dense growth
of oak and hickory. The country was
sparsely settled, there were few roads
or even pathways, and the heavily
wooded ravines and hilsides were wild
and rugged in the extreme. There
were caves, waterfalls, wild game in
abundance and everything pertaining
to country remote from civilization.
To stand all night on picket duty in
some lonely ravine, where there was
no sound save the babbling of mountain
rivulets or the weird signing of the
wind among the trees, was anything
but pleasant.
My company was among those de-
tailed for this duty, and the first night
we were stationed in a dark, gloomy
ravine at the foot of Walden's Ridge.
One of the picket posts was under a
large oak tree at the very darkest, most
uninteresting spot on the entire line.
We went on duty at eight O'Clock at
night and there would be no relief until
six O'Clock the next morning. A young
man, brave and watchful and general
favorite in the company, was assigned
to the post under the giant oak. The
night passed without incident, but
when we were relieved next morning
Private Thompson, the young man sta
toned under the tree, was missing.
His gun was broken and lying near the
tree, and there were indications that a
brief struggle had taken place, but
nothing more to tell his fate.
There were no blood stains, and his
disappearance was mystery. Nothing
else was talked of during the day by
the members of the company, and there
was great anxiety to learn the fate of
the brave young soldier.
The second night Private Baugh was
assigned to the post under the tree. He
laughed at the mystery when left alone,
but his voice trembled slightly, and it
was apparent that he would have pre-
ferred some other place in the line.
Again the night passed without any
demonstration in our front, but when
we were relieved the face of every
man in the company turned shade
paler when il was known that Baugh
had also disappeared, leaving his gun
behind. Here was genuine mys-
terry, and it attracted the attention
of the officers of the regiment. A
squad was detailed to examine the To-
cality by daylight, but a careful search

scuppers buried for entire minutes in
the water, while her masts and spars
up to the masthead were constantly wet
with spray. Ominous creaks, as of
overstrained timbers, arose from the
hold. A banging amidships indicated
that the violence of the storm had
caused part of the cargo TO shift. But
these facts signified nothing to the mis-
cradle and pallid wretches entombed in
the cabin. Lemons, acid phosphate,
brandy, the whole catalogue of RENE
dies prescribed for sea-sickness, in fact,
had no power to alleviate their suffer
ings. One of them subsequently stated
that the old fable about the sick Hiber-
nan, who was first afraid that his vessel
would go down and then that il
wouldn't, required to him with all the
force of an eternal verify. Not meal
was eaten in the cabin during those
memorable days. That imagination
has much to do with sea-sickness is
demonstrated by the fact that the i'll
ness ends temporarily when the sufferer
dozes off. 1t has apparently been
proved that a person, when intensely
occupied with something which diverts
his thoughts from the vessel, is less
susceptible to an attack than at other
times. A thrilling sensational novel,
with plenty of narrowing incidents and
scandals and rapid development of plot,
is said to sometimes delay an attack, If
the reader is thoroughly absorbed in
the work.-Letter from the bahamas.

Turpentine in Diphtheria.

We have on several occasions re-
ferred to the use of turpentine in diph-
liberia. Recommended originally in
Germany, and claimed to be almost
specific, it was there, also, that the en-
ployment of the drug was subjected to
the most severe criticism. Some recent
publications have drawn attention to
the alleged value of this substance,
and most remarkable among these is
an article by Dr. Reese, which appeared
in the TterapeutiSche Monatshgte. The
author asserts that he has employed
turpentine in diphtheria for the past
four years. In that time he lost only
five cases out of sixty that came under
treatment. Two of the fatal cases con-
cerned infants one year old, who APP
peared moribund when first taken and
died few hours later. The other
fatal cases were also unusually severe
from the start, two dying in thirty-siX
hours and one surviving five days.
This is certainly a noteworthy record,
as diphtheria statistics go. The oil of
turpentine was administered in dram
doses three times a day. Sweet spirits
of nitre was used as corrective in the
proportion of one part of the spirits to
fifteen of the turpentine. Symptoms
of intoXication were never observed by
the author. In addition to the turpen-
tine a two per cent solution of the
sodium salicylate was given every two
hours in tablespoonful doses. A gar
gle of chlorate of potash solution was
likewise employed whenever possible.
Under this plan of treatment rapid
amelioration of local signs and consti-
tutional symptoms was observed. Usu-
ally improvement began at once, and it
was rarely necessary to push the drug
beyond five or eight doses. 1t should
be remarked in this connection, how
ever, that a very generous and stimu-
lating fluid diet (strong broth, port
wine, milk, etc. formed feature of
Dr. Roese's plan of treatment.-Medi-
cal Record

A Strange Coincidence.

you ask me if / am superstitious,"
said well-known hotel clerk. &C. No,
not to any extent. There is one thing,
however, that | have noticed. There
are certain numbers on the annunciator
that demand more attention than others.
l don't account for it. l suppose there
is no way of accounting for it, and so I'll
let it go, but | haven't failed to notice
it. Because certain rooms are occupied
more than others is no excuse for it.
I'll tell you strange thing that hap
pened one night when l was on watch.
1t was quiet in the hotel, for nearly
every guest was in. l was reading a
newspaper when my attention was
called to number on the board which
was uncovered. l glanced at it, called
front, told the boy to 60 to No. - and
resumed my reading. In few minutes
the boy returned and said there was no
response. | looked over the rooms
that had been taken and found that no
one had been assigned to the room
in question. l didn't think anything
more about it then, for the wires
frequently get disarranged, and one
push on the button will uncover the
numbers of three or four rooms. A
little later the same number was I'M
covered again and 1 called to the boy
and gave him the pass-key, telling him
to go into the room and light the gas
and inspect it. If there is anything
that will make negro's teeth chatter
it is to 90 on such an Grand. How
ever he went and in about ten minutes
returned with the information that the
room was unoccupied. The number
dropped again, but l said nothing more,
thinking now that the wires were dis
arranged. l went off watch and went
to bed. When l came down and picked
up the morning paper the first thing l
saw was the announcement of the death
of Senator Logan. Then l recalled the
fact that he always occupied the room
the number of which had acted so
strangely when he was here. am not
superstitious, but l confess that l
thought it a very strange occurrence.
l told this same thing to my doctor
once, and he laughed so heartily about
it that have never told it since till
now. No, l won't tell you what the
number is.-Chicago Mail.

In a Rough Sea.

Readers of "Tom Cringle" will re-
member Aaron Bangs demonstrations
when the planter was put horS d,t
combat by the sea- AT least one of the
" Attic's" passengers can now appre-
ciate Mr.. Bangs perturbation. Father
Neptune is no respecter of persons, and
that explains, / suppose, why l went
on the retired list when the mainsail
was taken in. On descending the COM
panionway to the cabin | was some
what consoled by the discovery that the
other passengers had already sought
the seclusion which that apartment
grants. Things were a trife chaotic.
The table had broken away from its
fastenings and was hesitating whether
to alight on the bread-lockers, the mir
ror or the occupied berths. Two grip
sacks were on the floor and executing
nervous staccato movements, accom-
panied by the slide to one of the bin
nacle boxes which had broken from its
hinges. The captains suit of oil-skins
lay in PROSTATE neglige in one corner.

around in eccentric curves added its

Questions Answered.

!. W., GRoToN.-A bill has passed
the senate and house of representatives
to give you a pension. When the bill
is signed by the president and becomes
a law a pension certificate will be sent
you from the pension Office that will
entitle you to receive pension from the
date of the approval of the law by the
president. If you had been granted a
pension under the general law you
would have received large amount of
arrears. We see no reason why your
claim might not have been successful
under the general law by proper at
tention.
w. r. NJ, The bill
has not passed congress appropriating
S25,0 to aid the Vermont Soldiers
Home. A new bill has been intro
duced to pay every state that has a SOL
diers' home 500 year for each in
mate of such homes. This is a reason
able bill and ought to become law
Vermont would be entitled to receive
under such law $1,000. This sum,
with the labor of the inmates and the
income of the large farm connected
with the Home, would nearly, if not
entirely, support the thirty-seven old
soldiers now at the Home.
G. S., GREENsBoRo.-If the " disa-
bility pension bill I" should become a
law it would not benefit you. The
highest rate of pension provided for by
that bill is S12 month. To be entitled
to that rate under it you would have to
show disability sufficient to give you
a pension of $50 month under the
general pension laws. Probably not
more than one Grand Army man in a
hundred who voted for such bill knew
what it meant. 1t was recently stated
in the senate, when the bill was de-
bated, that not more than one thousand
soldiers would receive pension under
its provisions if it became law.
S. d. H., BURLINGToN.-An in
crease of pension commences only from
the date of the medical examination
had under the application. The case
you mention, where a large sum of ar
rears was paid, could not have been
simply claim for an increase. 1t was
no doubt, case of additional pension,
and the arrears was allowed in this
way. When the applicant was granted
a pension on an application filed in the
pension office prior to July, 1880, he
was not rated on all the disabilities
then named in his application, but has
since applied for increase and been
given rating on the disability named
in his original application, which would
date from the soldiers discharge from
the army. That is the only way ar
rears are paid in increase claims.
Your increase, when granted, will COM
mence from the date of your last med.
ical examination.

The Ease of Governing.

1t is not to be wondered at that people
crave oflice-some salaried position
in order to escape the anXieties, the
personal responsibilities of single
handed struggle with the world 1t
must be much easier to govern an island
than to carry on almost any retail bust
ness. When the governor wakes in the
morning he thinks first of his salary;
he has not the least anxiety about his
daily bread or the support of his family.
His business is all laid out for him; he
has not to create it. Business comes
to him; he does not have to drum for
it. His day is agreeably, even if SYM
pathetically, occupied with the troubles
of other peope-and nothing is so easy
to bear as the troubles of other people.
After he has had his breakfast and read
over the " constitution " he has moth
ing to do but to govern " for few
hours-that is, to decide about things on
general principles, and with little per-
sonal application, and perhaps about
large concerns which nobody knows
anything about, and which are much
easier to dispose of than the perplexing
details of private life. He has to vote
several times day-for giving de-
cision is really casting vote-but that
is much easier than to scratch around
in all the anXieties of retail business.
Many men who would make very re-
spectacle presidents of the United
States could not successfully run retail
grocery store. The anxieties of the gro
Gerry would wear them out, for consider
the varied ability that the grocery re-
quires-the foresight about the markets,
to take advantage of an eighth per cent
required to keep a full line" and not
overstock; to dispose of goods before
they spoil or the popular taste changes;
the suavity and integrity and duplicity
and fairness and adaptability needed to
get customers and keep them; the
power to bear the daily and hourly
worry; the courage to face the ever
present spectre of failure - which is
said to come upon ninety merchants in
a hundred; the tact needed to meet
the whims and the complaints of pat
rons, and the difficulty of getting the
patrons who grumble most to pay in
order to satisfy the creditors. When
the retail grocer wakens in the morning
he feels that his business is not going
to come to him spontaneously; he
thinks of his rivals, of his perilous
stock, of his debts and delinquent Gus
toners. He has no constitution p"
to go by, nothing but his wits and en-
ergy to set against the world that day,
and every day the struggle and the
anxiety are the same. What a number
of details he has to carry in his head
Consider, for instance, how many diff
ferent kinds of cheese there are, and
how different people hate and love the
same kind, and how keen must be his
appreciation of the popular taste! The
Complexities and annoyances of his
business are excessive, and he cannot
afford to make many mistakes; if he
does he will lose his business, and
when man fails in business honestly,
he loses his nerve and his career is
ended. 1t is simply amazing, when
you consider it, the amount of talent
shown in what are called the ordinary
businesses of life.-Harper'S Magazine.

The Ideal Workman.

In the town and in the country,
In the shop and in the field,
On the hills and In the valleys,
Which by industry doth yield
All that useful is and beauteous,
Tiny flowers and lofty trees,
Breathing forth the songs of incense
And sweet music in the breeze.
Walks man, man of prestige,
with a sense of duty high,
who will take his stand for honor
And for honor he would die,
Though his clothes be somewhat rusty
And his face trifle tan,
And his hands he hard from working
For he is working-man.
We could never do without him
And the labor of his hand,
For he is man of value
Bone and sinew of the land;
As the sunshine drives the night
BY its beam of gracious light,
SO he sheds his beams of industry
over indolence's night.
From the meadows and the fields
Golden sheaves he gathers in,
And his hands are ever busy
TIL they're safe within the bin;
And palaces and cities,
All DER our happy land,
Are monuments of honor
To our worthy working-man.
Yes, we need the working-men-
Them wen keep in sacred bond
To beautify creation
As If touched 10y magic wand;
They can fill the posts of honor,
They can WELD the mighty PEN
For the Garfields and the Lincolns
Are but ideal working-men.
May they ever live among us
Unoppressed by any power,
For to country they're safeguard
OF strength mighty tower.
To them we look for progress,
They are natures noblemen,
And Wen never reach perfection
without ideal working.men.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 25.-While six
men. employed by the Kansas City Hay
Company, were loading hay presses upon
a fat car north of the Kansas City cable
railway depot about FIVE O'Clock yesterday
afternoon, a Missouri Pacific switch en-
gine backed into the train, throwing sew
eral of the machines off by the shock and
hurting them onto the men. Frank Hall
and William Foster were crushed to the
earth beneath the weight of the machines
and internally injured. George Lecken-
hey was badly bruised and cut about the
face and scalp. The men were taken to
the Sisters hospital, where the physicians
in attendance said the injuries received
by Hall and Foster might prove fatal.
