Congressman O'FerraIl Tells how he
Once Came Near Being Hanged.
81 don't know how it feels to be hang
ed" said Representative O'Ferrall. OF
Virginia, to group OF gentlemen a few
evenings ago. but know how man
feels who has narrowly escaped being
hanged. In the late war / made 4 raid
with my regiment of cavalry into that
region of West Virginia where l was
born and raised. Some of my men either
wantonly or accidentally burned some
barns and dwellings and large number
of horses and cattle were confiScated.
The animals were taken by my orders,
but l disclaimed all responsibility fol-
the incendiary acts of the men. How
ever, when the war closed a warrant
was issued for my arrest, and officers of
West Virginia came to Richmond and
asked Provisional Governor Wells that
be delivered to them to be taken back tc
West Virginia, there to be tried
for the crimes committed. My
counsel fought vigorously against
my delivery to the West Vir'
ginia authorities and l brought all pos
sible influence on the Governor to get
him to decline to honor the requisitiOn.
In the meantime word reached me from
home that plan was on foot to take me
from the officers at the station near my
birthplace, escort me to large elm tree
in sight of my mothers residence, and
hang me. Finally, at the suggestion OF
Governor Wells, l wrote to General
Grant, stating the circumstances of the
case, and he decided that, as l was in
cluded in the surrender of Lees men at
Appomattox, l was not to be delivered
over to the civil authorities for acts COM
mitted in time of war. The requisitiOn
was subsequently, refused and it was un,
safe for me to visit my old home until
within few years past. A short time
ago, however, responded to an invita-
ton to deliver at the point mentioned a
Fourth of July grafton. All former hos
tility toward me had vanished and my
reception was as cordial as could have
desired. N. Y. Tribune.

VALUABLE DISCOVERY.
French Savants Testing the Nature o
Soil by the Color of Plants.

French Savants Testing the Nature of
Soil by the Color of Plants.
NJ. Georges Vile, a French scientific
agriculturist, after almost thirty years
of assiduous researches on the expert
mental farm at Vincennes, has made a
remarkable discovery of a relation exist
ing between the color of plants and the
richness of soils in fertilizing agents.
His conclusions, recently reported to the
Paris Academy of Sciences, deserve con-
sideration by all farmers and horticultur-
lists.
He finds that the color of the leaves of
plants undergoes marked change when
ever the soil is lacking in phosphate
potash, lime or nitrogen. The color
remains light green or turns to yellow
when the soil is deficient in phosphate
potash or nitrogen. When none of the
fertilizing elements are wanting the
color is dark green.
BY his experiments NJ. Vile furnishes
agriculturists with positive indications
BY which they can determine with the
greatest facility what kind of fertilizer
the soil needs most or in what elements
OF fertility it abounds. His expert
ments should be repeated by our De-
partment of Agriculture and the results
published. The practical information
which might thus be supplied to Ameri-
can farmers would enable many of them
to make two blades of grass grow
where one now grows."-N. Y. Herald.

GENERAL STANNARD.
Two Anecdotes of the Gallant Command
er of the Vermont Brigade.

Two Anecdotes of the Gallant Command
er of the Vermont Brigade.
Among the officers in the Northern
army of the civil war no one was gruffer,
Drawer or more beloved by his men than
General Stannard, who commanded a
Vermont Brigade. He was always en-
ragged by any attempt of the men whom
he commanded to steal, or forage" as
they called it, on private property.
A private named Hicks, on the march
to Gettysburg, remarked, chuckling, to
a companion, that there was nothing
stuck up about old Stannard. He was
not ashamed to converse sOciably with a
private!"
Has he been talking to you? What
did he say?'
Told me if didn't get out of them
cherry-trees, he'd kill me-"
Another instance of STANDARDS keen
watchfulness is given by one of his sol
diers. On the march to Frederick, the
General knew that an attack was to be
made on the regiment in few minutes.
The men were furnishing with thirst,
and coming to a well wished to stop and
fill their canteens. Stannard set a guard
over it and forbade them to break
ranks.
A certain Lieutenant Brown, who had
a wounded comrade, disobeyed the Or
der, and going to the well, at the risk of
his life, brought his friend some water.
General Stannard put him under arrest
and took his sword from him.
When the regiment reached Gettys-
burg, Brown, foreseeing a fierce conflict,
asked the General to suffer him to carry
his sword for the day, to be returned at
night. 1t had, however, been sent with
the baggage to the rear. Brown pro
cured a tOmahawk and carried it into
the battle, and did such good service
that General Stannard at night, though
badly wounded, sent for him, gave him
his own sword, and told him ne richly
deserved to carry it.-Youth's Com
naniOn.

The POnnlar Line

To the East is the Burlington Route
HANNIBAL & st. Joseph railrOad). The
service by thiSline has been constantly
improved until it has reached degree
of excellence surpassed by none, and
eQualed by few. The Burlington'S
ELI" is probably the finest and most
popular train running between the Mis-
souri, river and Chicago, being solid
through Vestibule train of Pullman
sleepers and free chair cars. Leaving
Kansas City, AtchisOn and st. Joseph
after supper, the passenger arrives in
Chicago at 9:15 in the morning. Hav-
ing taken breakfast on one of the Bur
lingtOn's world renowned dining cars,
he is ready for the days business, or III
ample time to make all Eastern con-
nectiOnS.
For the convenience of passengers
from Kansas City ELF takes a dining
car out of Kansas City on which east
bound passengers are served with a
supper which is equaled by few hotels.
The BurlingtOn's st. Louis line,
though comparatively new, is becoming
better known and growing in popular
favor every day until it bids fair in the
near future to be the favOrite line be-
tween the Missouri river and st. Louis.
This train, consisting of through sleep
ers, chair cars and coaches, leaves Kan
sas City, AtchisOn and st. Joseph after
supper and puts the passenger in st.
Louis for breakfast, and ample time to
make all connections.
You are also requested to bear in
mind that the Burlington kansas City,
st. Joseph & Council Blaffs r. r. is
the only line running through Pullman
Buffet Sleepers between Kansas City
and st. Joseph and st. Paul and Mime
apOlis. This is the short line between
Kansas City, st. Joseph and Omaha.
Through daily trains with sleeping and
chair cars.
In whatever direction you travel be

night at the First Presbyterian
church. Mrs. Newell, the pastors
wife, has long since proved herself

last evening was but another evil

the occasion a success. A notable
incident of the evening, was the
baptism, by the pastor, Rev. Mr..

Christian Chinese, Mr.. Lee Hem.

that has occurred in our city. The

HOME ONCE MORE.
Hon. T. McF. Patton and Wife Home
from an Extended Trip East.-Mr.
Patton Sees Some Sights.

Hon. T. McF. Patton and wife ar
rived home last evening from their
extended trip to the East. Mr.. Pat
ton was seen by a JOURNAL repre-
sentative to-day and he seemed to
be looking much better from the
trip. Mr. Patton said that the
trip was one or the most enjoy
able ones that he had ever taken.
Their stay in Washington at the
Knight Templars Conclave was a
delightful one. The whole affair
was brilliant success. There were
visitors aud delegates from all parts
cf the United States to the number
of several thousand. Mr.. Patton ex-
changed 500 cards while in attend
ance at the conclave.
After the affair at Washington
was over the visitors then put in
their time ut sight seeing. At
Chicago the western folks all made
special stop and took in the city.
Mr.. Patton informs us that COM
pany have been busily engaged in
removing the old Liberty prison
that was situated at Richmond.
The whole is in an enclosure and it
has been fitted up to look as neat
as possible. War relics are placed
around the prison and all the
surroundings as they were situated
during the war are in position.
An admission of 25 cents is charged
to view this old historical scene and
it is being visited by thousands and
thousands of sight seers.
Mr.. Patton also had a desire to
examine some of the large build
ings that have been constructed
at that great city. Accordingly
he selected one which he thought
was the highest in the city and
entering it told the elevator boy to
"take him up just as high as possi-
ble." The boy accordingly landed
Mr.. Patton on the 18th floor, where
he found one of the handsOmest
barber shops one could wish to see.
Mr.. Patton said that it had only
been n few days since he had had his
hair trimmed but he sat down in
chair and told the barber that he
wanted his hair cut, as he surely
thought that it would "afford him an
opportunity to have it done jus as
near heaven as ever was possible"
(This accounts for Mr.. Patton's hair
being so short).
There is no doubt but what the
trip was one of great pleasure. Many
sights were seen and incidents oc-
Cured that will make the trip ever
green in the memory of those who
were 50 fortunate as to take it.
