No Flag OF Truce.

ut was the closing day at Fred
cricksburg," says Gen. Kershaw. "when
man by the name of John Kirklan
came rushing into headquarters and
said: General, | can't stand it any
longer Referring to the wounded
Federals lying in front of our breast
works. he said: Those poor fellows
yonder are crying for water-thcy are
perishing for water-and | came to ask
your permission to go out there and
carry them some
Said /: 'Kirklan. You know it
would be almost certain death
'"Yes, said he. but | will risk it for
humanity's sake
81 don't think / ought to give you
permission to 60, said /. but was so
struck with his heroism that let him
go. He gathered some canteens. filled
them with water and went over the
breastworks. He got few steps and
came running back; | thought his
courage had failed him, but he came
to me and asked If he might put up a
white handkerchief. Said /: No,
Kirklan, we don't propose to use any
flag of truce OF this OCCASION
HE got his canteens and went over
the brcastworks again and went about
from man to man giving the wounded
water. At first the enemy fired at
him. but rs soon as they saw his par
pose they stopped. and he remained
out there until he had given water to
every one of those poor fellows."-AL

Defacing a Counterfeit Bill.

happened to be in the United States
sub-treasury on Wall street the other
day, says N. Y. Star gossiper. and
was rather amused at little incident
l witnessed. A gentleman entered,
and, approaching one of the clerks
handed him 500 bill and asked if it
were counterfeit. The clerk took it.,
went away. and in few minutes re-
turned and handed out the bill without
n word. Cut across its face with die
was the word Counterfeit" The
rage Of the owner knew no bounds.
''Confound you!" he shouted. Il
didn't ask. you to destroy the bill. /
simply asked you to tell me If it were
counterfeit. It's worthless now"
ut never was of any value" mildly
responded the clerk, .'and the rule of
the department is that all bills offered
in this way must be defaced when
counterfeits before returning them to
the party presenting them"
"Now that remarked the examiner
to me. lis an almost daily occurrence.
A man gets counterfeit bill passed on
him and. being in doubt, he comes in
here to ask about it, and it is destroyed
for him. He is naturally indignant, AS
doubtless he gave value for it and
would like to have chance to pass it
off on some one else. But the law is
Imperative on US and we must destroy
all such bills under penalty. If that
man had taken his bill to bank it
would have been returned TO him o..
H., but he made the mistake of bring
ing it here. The national banks are
supposed to dcface counterfeits as vel,
as the treasury. They seldom do it.
howeyer-perhaps not one case out of
100. They are afraid of insulting a

A Poyerty.stricken millionaire!

This seems paradox, but it is ex-
planned by one of New York's richest
men. 81 don't count my wealth in
dollars,n he said. "What are all my
possessions to me, since / am victim
of consumption ? My doctor tells me
that I have but few months to live,
for the disease is incurable. I am poor
er than that beggar yonder." "But,"
interrupted the friend to whom he spoke,
consumption can be cured. If taken
in time, DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery will eradicate every vestige
of the disease from your system" "I'll
try it," said the millionaire, and he did;
and to-day there is not a healthier,
happier man to be found anywhere.
The discovery" strikes at the seat of
the complaint. Consumption is q dis
ease of the blood-is nothing more nor
less than lung scrofula and it must
arv does yield to this wonderful remedy.
Golden Medical Discovery" is not
only an acknowledged remedy for that
terribly fatal malady, when taken in
time and given a fair trial, but also for
all forms of Scrofulous, Skin and Scalp
Diseases, as White Swellings, Fever
sores, Hip joint Disease, Salt rheum,
letter, Eczema, Boils, Carbuncles, Fry
sipelas and kindred ailments.

A Tragedy Enacted i'm the Swamps.

1t was down on the Great jackson
Route. A freight-train had met with
nm accident, and so Our train going
south was off-time and had to run in
on siding and wait for the lightning
express coming up from New Orleans.
Many of us were strolIing about, pick
ing blackberries or gathering flowers,
when some one suddenly shouted:
Everybody keep quiet and listen!
Harkr'
1t was the deep, far-away bay of
hound, and after half a minute we re-
allied that it was coming nearer.
The dogs are running a decrw
shouted one of the men, land if we
string out we may get Il shot!"
Fifteen or twenty men, each with
revolver strung out along the track,
and just then we heard the iron rails
begin to signal that the express was
coming. Two minutes later we heard
her whistle. There were three or
four dogs in the chase, and as they
drew nearer it was evident that the
game would cross the track belo v the
bridge. We ran down TO it. though
no one cared to risk the crossing. We
were hardly there when a coal-black
negro, barc-headed and in rags, leaped
out of the bush on the track and stood
facing us. The dogs had somehow
lost him and were baying in tic thicket
forty rods away.
What his crime was we could not
say. He was powerful big fellow,
and as he stood there. arms TO ded
across bis heaving breast, his face had
a terrible look. He was only pistol
shot away, but no one raised II weapon.
On the contrary. one Of the crowd
shouted to him:
Ion the track or you'll be killed!"
He turned and saw the express
laundering down tho level stretch and
then faced us again. The engineer
blew an alarm, but he stood there like
a rock. The train was running over
the stretch as a pigeon flies. sparks of
fire flashing from the rails and great
cloud of dust whirling behind it, and
the speed could not be checked. The
black man looked neither to the right
nor to the left. The dogs were com
ing nearer, but they were too late.
Those who did not turn their faces
aside saw the pilot fling him fifty feet
high, and as the body fell it splashcd
into the creek Mt out feet and lay
there, only half hidden by the shallow
waters-bruiscd, broken, dead. 1t had
scarcely struck the water when five or
six dogs broke from the thicket and
crossed the tracks, and close upon
them were three or four men. But
they had arrived too late. The hunted
man had taken his choice of how he
would die.-Detr0H Free Press.

FISH or THE GREAT LAKES
What Our Island Seas Yield-A Probable
SubLerranean River.

This city Is the most important lake
fish distributing market on the entire
chain of the great lakes. says a Buffalo
letter to the NY. San. although very
small proportion of the fish that are
daily sent from here to the eastern
cities are taken from waters contiguous
to Buffalo. They are brought from
Lakes Superior. Michigan. aud Huron,
the nearby waters of Lakes Erie and
Ontario furnishing comparatively
small supply of fish for shipment. The
fish are transported in refrigerator
cars. aud the supply is so large that
the present demand is not fully sup
piled. but there is surplus enough to
keep the winter demand for lake fish
amply cared for. The trade in lake
fish for seaboard markets has increased
SO of late years that it would now be
impossible to supply it during the win
tea season If winter fishing had to be
depended on for the material. The sur
plus of the summer and fall catches is
frozen and stored in refrigerators for
the winter trade. so that a whiteiish
lake trout, yellow pike, or lake bass
served on New Workers. table in mid
winter may have been caught the pre-
vious July or August. Whether the
favor of the fish is frozen in with the
fish itself so that it will be the same as
1t is in the fish taken from the water is
u question.
Lake Superior is considered the best
of the lakes for fish. Its water is more
like that of springs than any others.
White fish and trout taken from Su-
pcrior command better prices than
similar fish taken from any of the 9TH
er lakes. They like deep water. and
are found at their best in water 800
feet deep. Yellow pike come chiefly
from Lakes Huron and Ontario. Lake
Erie excels in blue pike and black
bass. Immense numbers of whitetish
and lake trout are taken from Lake
Erie aSd Lake Michigan, but the best
come from the colder, clearer waters
of Superior. Gill nets are used almost
entirely in capturing lake fish for mar
ket, although tons of pike and bass are
taken with hook aud line. 1t is sim
gular fact that blue pike are rarely if
ever found in any of the lakes except
Eric. The fishermen on these lakes
follow a perilous calling, and many
lose their lives in the violent storms
that sweet over the lakes, almost with
out warning.
1t has long been noted MS curious
fact that all tho st. Lawrence river
fishes are found In nearly all the great
lakes with the exception of Lake Erie.
This can be accounted for only by the
theory that subterranean river con-
meets Lake Ontario with the upper
lakes. The beds of Lakes Superior,
Huron, Michigan, and Ontario lie at
about the same depth below the sea
level-from $50 to 260 feet-thc upper
lakes beds being the highest. The bed
of Lake Erie is $50 feet above the sea
level. The theory is that river run
ming beneath Lake Erie extends from
Lake Superior to Lake Ontario. and
that fish from the st. Lawrence and
Ontario follow the course of that river
and find the waters of the upper lakes.

A Grand Old Indian.

One Of our own poets. who has late
ly returned from Il lecturing tour in
the Northwest and who was rs enthus
iastic as any of the business men about
the material resources Of the country,
was even more impressed with the rep
cesentatives of the race that is dying in
order that civilization may live. He
said the most impressive sight that
came under his observation was an In
lian brave, who rode up on his pony
IS the great train Of Pullman cars was
Stopping at western town, and did
not even look at the train, but chatted
with youth on another pony at his
side. There was natural dignity
about this Indian. who was the pcrfec-
ion OF physical manhood that seemed
grauder to the poet than the triumphs
Of the civilization that was overwhelm.
