He Could Drive.

The first colonel of the First Maine cavalry
was bluff John Goddard. In his younger
days he had been a successful lumber man
eccentric, but famed for the skill with which
he managed the various men in his employ.
Late one fall in the "fifties" young man,
tall, awkward and bashful, presented himself
at the lumberman's office, and asked for EN-.
ployment as a teamster.
'Do you know how to drive oxenr asked
Goddard
Il ruther guess Bo,n was the diffldent reply.
"Well, now, suppose was yoke of oxen, u
said Goddard, humorously, and he got down
upon "all tours" on the Office floor. NOW,
suppose wouldn't haul, let me see what you
would do to make me come up under the
yoke"
The youth objected at first, but when he
was told that his winters work depended
upon the trial he took the long braided goad,
with which oxen pre prodded in Maine, and
began to flourish it over the kneeiing lumber
mans head
"Hish, Bright get up there, Goldeni come
here, STAR gee of, therei" he yelled in turn,
but never move did Goddard make This
was repeated with variations, the young
teamster warming to his work as his embar-

steel brad into Goddard's trousers.
The coming cavalry colonel rose in hurry
and the Yankee was hired at his own price,
and proved to he the best teamster in the
gang of woodsmel that winter. When the
cavalry regiment was organized the teamster
went to the front as a private, and when he
fell, fighting under Grant, he wore a set of
lieutenant's epauettes on his shoulders
