A young woman tried to escape from
her companions. who were in an open
carriage, but was forcibly taken back
into the vehicle and the latter driven
away. This occurred in the city of
Wichita last Sunday. The police knew
nothing about ii. They were probably
looking out for violation of the pro-
hibition amendment, and had no time
devote to abductors, or criminals of any
other class.

Tho csttysburs Panorama.

The first sensation of the visitor to
this extraordinary exhibition is one
that does not lose any of its freshness
upon . subsequent inspection. Al
though aware, before entering, that he
is looking at building of 1874 feet in
diameter and So feet high. he finds
himself, after ascending the little mar
row stairs, in an open country stretch
ing in every direction toward the hori-
zon 1t is impossible to break the ILL.,
usion involved IN so splendid triumph
of perspective drawing. Then the ac-
curacy of the landscape in every detail
is such as to call forth the special
plaudits of the Pennsylvanians, one of
whom exclaimed the other day, "My
God! Look at our Blue mountains.
The scenes of valor, Of destruction, Of
carnage and of death upon which the
spectator lDUkS uUWu SccmS never "
lose their dreadful interest. The real
ground-with gun here, broken am
unition wagon there, and a cavalry
trumpet in the ditch-the real snake
fence and the real stone walls are so
skillfully continued into the canvas
that on slightly lifting his head one can
hear the last agonizing cry of the reb-
el general Armistead as he falls in the
moment of temporary victory. On
come the contending hosts, despite the
terrific gaps made in them by the enc
my's artillery. Riderless steeds, be-
wildered, fly they know not where; dead
and dying strew the field; innumerable
instances of individual heroism fill the
on-lOoker with admiration. As whole
and in every detail the work is so un-
exceptionable that upon retiring from
the bloody field Old heroes feel that
they have fought their battles Ger
again. Chicago Evening Journal,
August 30.

or Bill Of the Plains,. Lovingly inscribed t
his wife.
When the gloaming's shadow lengthen.
Into dreary, sleepy night,
Then my hearts warm love but strengthen,
In the balmy, soft twilight;
When the nights dew beads the foweret,
And the birding in its nest,
With the silvery crescent shining,
BY the night winds rocked to rest.
When the gloaming's shadow lengthens,
Oh, my darling still for thee;
Still for thee my heart's love strengthens;
What has been, shall ever be;
When the prairie's winds are signing,
Signing soft and signing low.
Then I'll think Of you and love You,
As did once long ago.
When the gloaming's shadow lensthens,
Far into the great beyond,
Still for You my love will strengthen;
Still for you, my soul so fond;
Where no psrtings ere will sever;
Where no love shall ere grow cold:
Will yet fondly and forever,
Love you darling as OF Old.
