Suicide on the battlefield.

A group of old soldiers gathered in the
| rotunda of the Kimball House were telling
| stories Of field and camp during the war,
when one of the number gave the following
graphic account of the suicide of Federal
officer on the field at Gettysburg;
ut was there" said he, 81 saw a Federal
officer, chagrined because nothing would
stay the retreat of his men, raise his pistol
to his head and blow out his brains. IL
happened on the second days fight. Gen.
Longstreet had just come up with part of
his corps from Chambersburg, Pa, and
vigorously assailed Sickies's corps, which
he was driving back in great disorder.
Sickles halted and formed his men in line
TO receive Longstreet's onslaught.
1T was one of the few times / ever saw
corps commanders at the front line
Sickles, with his staff, was riding among
his men encouraging them to withstand
the Confederate assault, while Longstreet
with his staff, and Colonel Freemantle. an
English officer and correspondent of the
London Times, were cheering our BOYS to
the charge.
I'VE advanced and gave the Federals a
terrific voliey at close range. They stag
gered under the calling fire, when Long
street ordered us to give them the bayo-
nets. As the men wavered and broke to
run an officer stepped to the front and,
with his sword, signaled them to come
back. Again and again he waved to his
men, but by this time they were in full
run and the officer, in his angry mortifica-
ton, raised pistol to his head and fired.
When General Longstreet and Colonel
freemantle rode up they looked down at
the brave Union officer, but the tide of
battle swept us on."-Atlanta Constitu-
ton.

And we've done it.

Silver is the medium of exchange
among more people of this world, five
times over, than gold is. The value
of the silver dollar has fluctuated
within the past twenty years, as
measured by the gold standard, from
sl.Ol6 In 1873 to $0.7l2 Ia 1889, simply
because the value Of silver has fuctu-
ated with production. The PROPOSE
ton to make 371i grains OF pure silver
the standard of value, and to measure
gold by that, is the sensible PROPOSE
ton; the questions of government
purchase and free coinage being made
secondary thereto. And the chances
are that the Fifty-second congress will
recognize 1t and act thereon.

Some people in this world have
neither sense nor money" said Squil-
kins, this evening, as he sat ia the
chair editorial and spit tobacco juice
over pile Of choice exchanges we had
carefully rounded up in corner for
future reference. Look here" he
continued, "here's the Blaine journal
OF this week, and it says
Ia the past few months there have been
taken from the journal office four print
ers composing rules. They are OF no
earthly use TO any one but printer and
we Will DO grateful to any one who will
return one or more OF them.
Why don't the stupid printers 90
to work and compose more rules to
take the place Of them that's gone?
OF course printers rules won't apply
to running a Sunday school or
a street railway, so neither
teacher nor superintendent could
have annexed them. I'll tell you
what to do, old fellow, just you
write an editorial advising them hay
seeds up there to pass a series Of reso-
iuti0ns and nobody'il think of hooking
them, and let their rules go to thun-
der"

Heredity In CatR,

Why does cat walk around upon the
hearth rug for about five minutes before he
takes his seati Pm sure, as the English
people say, don't know. A neighbor of
mine, however, was watching his cat going
through the grating preliminaries the
other evening, and he told me what he be-
heved to be the truth of the matter. He
says he got his facts from Darwin. | hone
he does, but as the children in the Seventh
Reader say, Zone can't always tellp'
1t seems that cat belongs to the leopard,
panther and tiger race, so that no amount
of domestication has been able to eradicate
Inherited tendencies. The animals men
TONED livein the woods-when they are not
in the geological gardens-and they have
no hired help to prepare beds for them
When ready to go to rest they have to find
fallen leaves and tree branches, not well
assorted. They tramp round and round
on the spot where they propose to lie until
