JEFF DAVIS SHAWL
AND THE WATERPROOF CLOAK HE
WAS WEARING
when He was Captured im
Georgia, Twenty-Six
Years Ago.

| WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-An incident with
an important bearing upon one of the
most interesting episodes Of the closing
days Of the civil war happened yesterday
at the war department. For twenty-six
years an iron chest whose contents were
unknown to all save the different secre-
taries of war and the particular officer
charged with its safe-keeping, has lain in
the vaults OF the war building. The mys-
terry surrounding this chest and its con
tents has been at last disclosed 1t was of
recent years in the charge of Major A.
Macarthur; 1t is now in charge of Briga-
dier General Breck, assistant adjutant gen
eral Of the army.
This change Of custodians necessitated
the opening of the chest and an examina-
ton and inventory of it's contents. 1t was
brought into the ante-room of the secretary
and there unlocked and opened in the pres
ence of witnesses.
After the inventory was made and re-
ceipts were exchanged the double locks OF
| the chest were re-fastened, and it, with its
contents was again placed in one of the
strong vaults of the great triple depart
The contents Of this carefully guarded
strong box were, first a large old-fashioned
waterproof Of ample dimensions, such AZ
were worn III the days when gossamers
were not known; secondly, cashmere
shawl, and thirdly pair Of RUSTY spurs.
There is story behind them, for tbey
are mute testimonials of the truth of the
long-doubted much-denied story of Jeffer-
son Davis, the fallen president Of the con
4 federacy, was, when captured, disguised

identity long enough to enable him to pass

that he would not have treated

direction of the White House.
Arriving there Re stopped for a
while looking over the fence into
the grounds surrounding the execu-
tive mansion. and presently caught
sight of the president walking
along the path in front of the
house. Just then a bright idea
struck him. Mastering up his
courage, he stalked into the garden
and presently neared the presinent.
"Good morning, Mr.. President"
he said, touching his cap.
"Good morning, my man." re-
piled "Old Abe" "what can I do
for you?"
The soldier hesitated for a while
but noticing the presidents kindly
look finally said:
1.-THE fact of tho matter is, Mr..
President, we haven't had any
money for two months now, and
everyone of US is dead broke, and l
am almost dead for a chew OF
tobacco"
A smile lit up tho face of the old
war president as he received this
information, and then his hand
went down into his pocket. Draw
ing forth silver dollar he handed
it it to the "broken" volunteer and
said:
1T shan't be said that one of nv
soldiers died for the want of some
tobacco. I need his service to
much for that. Buy some tobacco
with this, and I think by the time
it is gone you will have received all
the money that is due YOU"
With a gratitied "thank you, Mr..
President" the soldier lifted his
cap and passed quickly out of the
grounds. The hack salary was
paid shortly after the occurrence.
