plump and pretty, both had blue eyes,
and both possessed charming curls of a
decidedly auburn hue.
1t was in the early years OF the war
that q susceptible young Captain of an
Indiana regiment chanced to sit behind
one of these maidens, Miss jennie, then
just turned sixteen. A camp-meeting
was in progress, and, as she bobbed her
pretty head from one side to the other
with its tantalizing wealth of curls, he
could not resist tho temptation OF Civ
ing one of them pull. OF course she
turned to look at tho audacious wretch
who had dared to take such liberty,
and the doughty Captain surrendered at
once, and humbly begged her pardon.
So Captain James II. Miller, for that
was his name, made his peace with the
young lady, and n few weeks later when
he left for Virginia he carried away
good-sized ringlet and also gold ring
given him by Miss Jennie. The Captain
left breathing VOWS of deep devotion, to
which her fond heart responded family,
but, as the lover hoped, truly. Howev-
or, she soon tired of waiting for the
Captain, and married another man who
wore the blue and, as the old man with
the scythe and the hour-glass has kept
steady at work for the past twenty-five
years or more, never missing swath in
times harvest-field, she has since mar
ried two other soldiers.
Captain Miller, it seems, also married,
but the ring and ringlet he had taken
from the pretty lass in the days when
life was young had kept her in his NOM
ory. So the other day, when he died,
so the dispatch that came from Chicago
says, he left her S63, 900. The news of
his bequest went over all the land and
inquiries were made in this city, where
she had lived for several years, as to she
whereabouts of Mrs. Jennie Rowland,
that being the name of her last hus-
band, her next preceding husband hav-

has been found in Chicago, and lives Mt
No. SO Desplaines street, in two small
rooms with a crying baby. She had heard
of her good fortune and said that she
had written for the money. 81 am go-
ing to wait for it," said Mrs. Rowland;

HIS VALUABLE RUCKTAIL.
How n PluclSy Soldier Saved the Emblo n
of His Company.

That" said an old veteran, sig a
'bucktail,' have had it ever since left
the army in '65, and to-day l would not
part with it for love or money"
The old man fondly looked at the relic
and felt of the stiff bristles in a manner
that told of the value he placed upon it.
Through the center of the bucktail there
was bunch of hair missing. That"
said he, was cut away by 'reb's' bull
let meant for my head.
You have heard of the old Pensyl-
vania bucktail," continued the old man.
''Well, was member of that organi-
zation. One of the regiments was cap
tured by the Confederates. was there.
While we were waiting to be taken to
Andersonville prison l had hand-to-
hand encounter with Confederate Of
ticer who wanted my 'bucktail.' Now,
if there is any thing we boys val
ued above every thing else it was that
regimental emblem. So, when the of
ficer offered to buy the plume told him
| could not part with it. oh, we'll, said
he, if that is your game l will get it
any way mentally made VOW that
if he did he would have to take it from

of my cap and placed it in my pocket
Late that night somebody came into
my tent, and 1 knew what was on foot.
We had hand-to-hand fight, and final
ly landed the 'reb' outside my tent 1

surprising part of the whole affair was
that two of the young officers superiors
were watching him, and when he was
thrown out of my tent they had a hearty
laugh, and assured me that l should
have no more trouble about that buck,
tail. l managed after that to keep the
emblem of our company by me during
the year spent in Andersonville, and
when I finally made my escape the first
thing did was to put the old bucktai
in the straw hat l was wearing. Do you

AN OLD LOVERS GIFT.
A Romance OF War Days with a Sequel OF
Great Material Value.


Thirty years ago there lived seven
miles north of this city on the Peru
railroad, now called the Lake Erie &
Western, an honest, Industrious farmer
named James. The railroad station was
named James Switch, in his honor, and
he performed the duties of postmaster.
In time the old-fashioned name of the
switch gave place to the more sounding
title of Malott Pa'k, and the name of
James disappeared from the neighbor-
hood. 1t was before these changes had
taken place that the events in the open
Ing chapter OF the life romance recorded
in this article occurred. Mr. James had
two girls twins, and as bright and live

be found anywhere. They were equally

builders of the Pyramids.
All the magnificent buildings of Paris
are made of limestone taken from quar-
ries near tho city. These quarries are
composed of layers made entirely from
the tiny shells OF microscopic animals.
No less than one hundred and thirty
seven species exist in these limestone
beds. There were other little beings,
not SO small, that did an enormous
share of rock-building. They have re-
ceived the name ''nummulities," from
the Latin word "nummus," meaning
money" because their shells resemble
coins. In Germany they are commonly
called tho devils money" They are
so perfectly formed that one can not
help thinking, on first looking at them,
that they have been stamped with die
In some places mountains of great
height are made of their shells. In
Egypt the layers are of such extent
that since centuries before Christ tho
rock has been used for building pur-
poses. The ancient pyramids and the
Sphinx are made of this rock.
Beds of Ignite, kind of half-finished
coal, are also found among tho rocks Of
this age. With 1t is found tho yellow
amber, which is only fossil resin from a
species of Pine tree. 1t is abundant on
tho shores Of tho German ocean. In
sects are often found preserved in it as
perfect as on the day they were impris-
oned. The first bee of all tho ages was
found in amber, ian embalmed corpse
in a crystal coffin" With 1t were found
fragments of flower and leaf, as IL the
resin dropped on tho flower upon which
the bee had alighted, and enveloped
