A CONFEDERATE PLOT.

1t Was Well Planned, But Betrayed by
a Texas Ranger.
Colonel Dulaney, of Bowling Green.
KY, was a delegate from his State to
the Horticultural Society meeting just
closed at the Sherman House.
The Colonel has quite a record and
often amuses his hearers by relating the
incidents of his past life. Said he to a
reporter: 81 was soldier in the Con-
federats army during the entire period
of the war and belonged to General John
Morgan's command. In 1854, during the
time of the Democratic National Con-
vention held here, there were many
Confederate soldiers smuggled into Chi
cago with a view of attempting the re-
lease of rebel prisoners then incarcerat-
ed at Camp Douglas. at that time oc-
cupied quite a prominent position in
that hazardous movement. The time
fixed for action to be taken was in the
earlier part of October, but for reasons
well known to the projectors at that
time the move was deferred until a
month later. At that time there were
to my knowledge at least 1000 Confed-
crates on the outside of the prison here
ready and enlisted to assist in the cause
of securing liberty for those on the in
side, who numbered about $500 The
Federal troops here numbered about
5000, under the command of General
Sweet The prisoners were thoroughly
organized and perfectly familiar with
our plans; they were organized into regi-
ments, batallions and companies, and to
a man all were ready to make the fight
or break for liberty whenever the order
or rather the signal was given A great
many of the Federal garrison here were
disabled from sickness and other causes
so as to be unfit for duty. while others
were on leave. All of these facts we
were perfectly familiar with, and We
made our calculations accordingly

THE OLD FOOT LOG.

It's mates have fallen, one by one
Their shade no more the wild birds greet
Across the stream still running on
Between the fields of growing wheat.
Ger 1t the pathway wanders down,
Through hollows deep, round wooded hill
No rule to follow but its own,
It bends as winds the ripping rill-
stand and gaze about to-day,
At woodland haze, at changing sky;
The memories of the far away
With shadowy years come hurrying by.
Imuse upon the friends-a host
Who lie within the churchyard low;
The feet that once so nimbly crossed
Have feeble grown and very slow.
Here, merry children ran and played,
Where butterflies danced in the air,
fairy garden ne'er to fade,
With flowers blooming everywhere.
Here grew the violets modest cup
Low in the fern, q sweet surprise.
Methinks see her looking up,
Their hue within her gentle eyes.
The long, long years have fed away;
Ihear once more quiet voice,
AS wandering by this narrow way
She bade my sorrowing soul rejoice.
She sleeps with violets on her bed,
Their hearts die out in fragrance there;
And yet, above, so softly spread,
In beauty waves the maiden-hair.
Take but blossom and a spray,
Else might this day seem but dream,
ToVanish with the mists away,
To die with murmurs Of the stream.
Ali Life may lead through desert ways
And, lacking joy, all sorrow prove;
Yet still, when done are earthly days,
'Twere worth it all to only-love.

A MYSTERY.
A Minister with Secret Attached
to His Life.

Ibid you ever bump up against an in
dividual who baff1ed your curiosity by
drawing vail of secrecy over his past?"
queried the young doctor when it came
his turn to contribute story to the gen.
eral fund. 81 used to think" he con-
| tinued, that such characters emanated
solely from the fertile brain of the fic-
ton writer. But was mistaken. Not
many years since 1 formed the acquaint-
ance of man who was harder to make
out than the most ingenious creation of
novelist could possibly be. A regular
human enigma in short, and he wasn't
obliging enough, you know, to clear up
the mystery before he died, either.
at was early in the SOS" began the
doctor, lighting cigar, land 1 had
just finished my medical studies and
was trying to pick up little practice
in pleasant village in the southern
part OF Wisconsin. Business didn't
flourish by any means, but as I had
friends there, and was too poor, besides,
to think OF establishing myself in a
large city, was very we'll content to
remain there, for awhile at least
There were several churches in the
town, but at the time of which 1 speak,
the Congregationalistp pulpit was empty.
Numerous applications for the position
appeared, but none suited, until at last
one OF the trustees arrived home after
short trip and announced that he had
found the very person. A Rev. Mr..
Ramsay 1T was whom he had run across
quite accidentally and who though
travelling for his health, had finally con-
sented to come out and preach trial
sermon, and to remain indefinitely II
his hearers were pleased.
swell, in due time Mr.. Ramsay ar
rived and delivered discourse which,
for eloquence and logic, / have never
heard excelled You may be sure the
church lost not moment in engaging
him, and they marveled much at their
good luck, wondering that so talented
man should wish to stay and bury his
gifts in such small, obscureetown.
The new acquisition speedily rose to
the place OF first favorite in the ranks
OF the ministers His sermons fairly
scintillated with brilliancy, and we
soon found that he certainly possessed
remarkably fine education in the bar
gain Though he never spoke of the
past, his conversation gave evidence of
his having travelled extensively in
pretty much every country on the face
OF the globe. Moreover no was young,
and such genial, warm-hearted fellow
that every body liked him at first sight
They couldn't help it
But, as 1 said, he never alluded to his
former life For aught we knew he
might have been bishop or high
wayman, an American gambler or the
son OF an English duke, but the church
members were too proud of the prize they
had captured TO be very curious about
his previous record, and the touch Of
mystery clinging to him only rendered
him the more attractive to us For MP
part, thought the strangest thing con-
corning him was that he seemed never
to hold communication with anybody

Davis Da1ton's Story Discredited.

The alleged swim of Davis Dalton across
the English channel Aug. II has kicked
up quite "A row in English athletic circles.
Dalton claims to have leaped off the stern
of a sailing yacht, the Ocean King, at Bou-
logne, at p. m. on that day, and to have
crossed the channel to Folkestone, a dis
tance of about sixty miles, in 23h. 35m.
He swan on his back and his story Is
vcuched for by two boatmen and his regu-
larly appointed historian.
When Dalton landed he was nearly blind
from the effects of the salt water upon his
ewes, and his exhausted condition seemed
to Enthusiastically confirm his story
His rapid recovery, however, seems to
have excited the suspicion of the CORE
spondents who interviewed him, as a short
time after landing physician pronounced
him to be in first class condition. His pulse
was strong, his lung action was perfect.
and his temperature was 9114. Doubts OF
the genuineness of Dalton's feat had no
sooner been expressed when four "Oxoni-
ans" came to the front with the statement
that they left Boulogne just ahead of the
Ocean King, and that although they
watched her until dark with powerful
glasses they saw no one jump overheard.
They state they had heard of the projected
swim. and were purposely on the watch to
see whether or not it actually occurred.
Dalton Indignantly denies the charge Of
taking" and promises 70 again swim the
channel within month.
