The Last Confederates.

According To story in Albert Law
sons "War Anecdotes the last Con-
federate did not surrender until fiji
teen months after Appomatox. The
story is that on the 4th day of July,
1886, the Secretary of War who had
planned a fishing excursion to the
falls of the Potomac, received a tele-
gram from the Provo Marshal at Rich
mond, saying that a squad of Confed-
erate soldiers were at his office ready
to deliver up their arms aud be am
nestled. Knowing that joking of that
sort would subject the perpetrator II
eourtmaftial, the Secretary fastened
Ia the White House To consult Presi-
dent johnson. The result was tele-
gram te the Provo Marshal:
"Who are they and where did they
come froml"
The answer was prompt aud to the
point.
Sergeant Tewsbury and guard from
Dismal swamp. Didn't know the
war was over
After great deal of laughter the
Provo Marshal was ordered to receive
their capitulation, which was conduct
ed in due form. Tewsbery, an old
Yirgirian, ordered his squad, couple
of Georgians, 10 give up their guns
and sign the papers, reservng himself
rs the last man of al the Confederate
force To surrender. The old sergeant's
dissertation of the Wav hn fOuud ont
the war was over was amusing.
lie and his companions had been
posted on the edge of the swamp TO
watch the movements of the Union
troops from Norfolk, with orders to
remain until relieved. He was never
relieved and subsisted on game and
fish for two years. At last he met a
negro who told him the war had been
over for about year, which "tickled
him better than if he had been kicked
by mule" as he expressed it.

The craze for high towers Instituted
by the Paris exposition will probably

Of originality in invention. But

1t has been philosophicaily and yet
practically figured by some one that out
of every ten dollars paid to a man who
commands high pay one dollar is for
what he does aud the other nine is for
what he knows 1t Is knowing how
tina. costs, and that is valuable. The
number of hours man works is of
minor importance when salaries go in
to five figures. Knowing how is what
such salaries are paid for, and the
fewer the men there are who have the
natural ability to learn how the higher
the figures go.-Exchange.

THE HILARIOUS JUDGE.

The impeachment trial of Judge
Botkin of the thirty-second judicial
district has uegan in Topeka. Botkin,
it will be remembered, was here as a
republican candidate for congress be-
fore the convention that nominated
Hallowell. He gained notoriety on &C.
count Of the immense quantities of
whiskey he consumed here, and fresh
laurels we're added by the brass band
which accompanied him. The Judge
was gold mine for tie joints, and no
end of fun for the delegates. Soon
after his arrival, his admirers heralded
forth that the Jointists were compelled
to send an emergency order for tangle-
foot to the basis of supply across the
eastern line Of the state. The Judge
was jolly good fellow, and many
delegates throat was cleared at the ju-

DUNCAN OF PUMPKIN.

Duncan of Pumpkin, member Of
the lower house, took OCCASION 20 cx-
press the opinion that western Kansas
was fit only as habitation for owls
and coyotes, when the bill appropria-
ting $50, 900 to buy seed for west
ern Kansas farmers was under consid-
Grafton.
Duncan of Pumpkin was sat down
on SO hard 3y western kansas members
that it is reasonable to suppose the eff
ects of the jar are with him yet.
Duncan of Pumpkin aspires to be
classed with statesmen through the
medium of growing red headed on each
and every occasion that presents itself.
whether opportune or otherwise. He
has courted ridicule for himself and
humiliation for his rural constituency
by flashing in the pan on an average of
three times day since the legislature
convened, and this last ebulitiou has
gained for him what he SO ardently
sought-momentary notoriety. 1t mat
tiers not to Duncan of Pumpkin that
the chief ingredient in this temporary
fame is ridicule, SO long as his name has
been heralded in the newspapers and
his thirst is partially slaked. Dun
can of Pumpkin is one of the charact-
ers brought to light by the recent up
heavel. He is one of the phenomena
evolved by the farmers alliance, and
we may expect to see his eurhonious
name appear occasionally in exchanges.
