PIcKErT's GRAND CHARGE.

'The federals replied for time. but divining
the fire of the artillery was the prelude to an
infantry charge, wisely ceased firing and re-
served further shots for the attacking column.
The troops were now ordered forward, and the
steel-tipped lines of gray began their march
over the plain of death and up to the heights
OF destruction. How grandly these veterans
went down the slope, and how magnifcently
and with what steadiness they advanced up the
hill, while both armies watched and wondered
This small force was charging, too, into the
jaws of death and into the mouth of hell

rained upon them as the whole line of Cemetery
Ridge burst into a fiery fame. As men fall the
lines are closed, and these matchless men con-
tlnue their wild charge. Hancocks corps is in
their front, and Meades headquarters are
just behind his position. 1t looks as if TIE
left center of the Federal army would be
pierced, but if SO, could it be held? Stanards
Nermonters are now pouring CALLING fire into
the right line held by kemper. Three regi-
ments of Pennsylvania troops which manned
the wall in front are rolled up and rolled away
by the impetus Of the fierce attack. Brave old
Armistead, who has been leading his portion
OF the line with his hat on the point of his
sword SO that amid the dense smoke his men
might follow him as the men followed the
white plume OF Navarro so many years ago. has
leaped the wall, and is among the guns and
gunners Of Cushings battery. There, this
brave hero is killed and Cushing falls almost
simultaneously by his side. Gallant Garnett
Is killed, while courageous Kemper is severely
wounded and suffers to-day from the wound.
Men of five brigades have broken through the
first Federal line and are hurting themselves on
the second.
ALL LOST SAVE HONOR.
Alas, their small numbers are known and
they are hemmed in on three sides, for Ham
cock and Gibbons are rushing up fresh troops
The death storm swept over them and all is
lost save honor. This. too, was a grand and
glorious proof of human valor. This, too was
magnificent; but was this, too, war? What

Much Dead Timber in the
Delaware N. G. D.

The report of General Theodore
Armstrong, Inspector of the National
Guard, has just byen received bv Cen
eral!Aenney. Is is the most complete
report of the kind made in the history
OF the guard in this state, and goes
into detail with a vengeance. Lieu
tenant Leroy Brown, U. S. A.. who
aided General Armstrong, brought the
boys up all over the state and the re-
port shows his finger marks.
IL Is evident that a shaking up in
some quarters will follow the report
Among them it may be surmised that
Company ID of Dover, will be mustered
out OF the service and a new company
with different material organized.
Under the law the company, accord
ing to the inspector generals report.
Is cut of from all state aid and it must
go.
In closing the report General Arm
strong and Lieutenant Brown say that
there is great deal of dead timber'
IN the guard that might with advantage
be gotten rid of. They suggest that
all who were absent at the Inspection
without sufficient excuse be mustered
out Of the service. Those who appear
to look on the guard as a sort of a
Tree picnic" or circus arrangements
had, they suggest, better be dropped
from the rolls and the chances are
that their suggestion will be carried
out. The 500 odd members of the
guard have been anxiously awaiting
this report.

UNSUCCESSFUL EFFORTS TO DEFRAUD

The coroner of Philadelphia Wed.

and discovered befora he was through

published on November 22d of the
death OF Miss Annie Mcintosh. age
y years, at the home of Mrs. Ella
Benin, No. 1922 Uber street. As there
was no funeral from the house the
coroner began an investigation. sus-
peeting crime, possibly a murder.
Dr. f. NJ. Murray had given a GER
tidcate of death from peritonitis. On
the witness stand he testified that
Annie Mcintosh had formerly been
MS servant, that he was called to at
tend her at the house of Mrs. Bebm
prescribed for and visited her several
times and that having been informed
OF her death soon after the last visit.

Ihe testimony of other witnesses CON
tradicted this story completely. Mrs.
Behm made confession. She said
that Miss Mcintosh had never been at
her house, but that she had allowed
DR.. Murray to advertise the death as
having occurred there on his premises
to pay her well for that service.
DR.. Murray finally made confession
OF the whole business to the coroner.
lie admitted that Miss Mcintosh was
not dead. Her life was insured for his

dians for $625, and as he was the nbv.
sician for the lodge he was to put

WAYS OF GROWING THEM.
There are two simple ways of cult

may plant them where the leaves of
trees or shrubs fall plentifully in au-
tlmn, through which loose materisl
they will push up and bloom often
enough through the early SHOWS of
December! The better method is
however, to plant them in such a wav

ABOUT November l. so as to keep off

up clean and unimpeded bv storms.
inns way also allows the ready cutting
OF Uhe blossoms at any time desired
a somewhat shaded spot is best for
them, and rich soil or compost makes
strong growth in these as in other
plants.
In England these blossoms are
grown in great quantities and find
