out ceremony the famished men crowded
around the old man, and finding that he
had in his basket "pone'' of corn bread
they seized it and began to devour it raven
ously. After time the situation was ex-
planned, and when the negro learned who
the highwaymen were he supplied a guam
tity of meal and salt and sent them on
their way mentally resolved to cultivate &C
quaintance with colored folks as often as
possible.
Not until several hundred miles had been
placed between their fainting feet and
Charleston did the hapless fugitives feel
a sense of freedom. Often their fears and
alarms were causelesS, but they suffered
loss of vitality all the same Sometimes
seeming misfortunes proved to be blessings.
One night a pack of dogs chased them into
a crowded village and they took refuge in
a graveyard vault. There Capt. Drake
found a copy or a local newspaper, warming
the people TO be on guard for escaped Union
prisoners. The escaped prisoners them
selves got the benefit of the hint. At
another time some Confederate cavalrymen
chased them on the high road and they es-
capped by getting into a dense woods where
the horses couldn't follow. While wander
ing about they fell in with a loyal noun
talneer, who took them To his home, fed
them and directed them to other UnionistS.
On reaching the vicinity of Morgantown,
N. c., they attempted TO avoid it by wide
detour, because it was a rendezvous for
Confederate conscripts. While making
their way cautiously through a piece of
pine woods they ran onto a mounted Con-
federate officer, from whose notice there
was no escape. All hands came 10 a halt.
The Confederate looked the hapless fugi-
tives over, and without asking explanations
told them they would be safer on the other
side of the Catawba river, whose rushing
waters were within hearinSs and then di-
rected them where to find Boat for cross
ing. They failed TO find the bdat and had
several narrow escapes from discovery, but
by hugging the river closely they soon
found means Of crossing, and landed in

by her. In Massachusetts she revolution
lied the factory system, and at her sugges-
ton women factory inspectors were ap-
pointed. New York followed Massachu-
sets with similar laws, and the working
women of these two states owe debt Of
gratitude to Charlotte Smith. One Of her
triumphs during the last congress was the
passage of the bill to pension army nurses.
Mrs. Smith has not always been in &C
cord with certain organizations of women.
Several of them have refused 70 hear her
speak. But while some of these societies
have expended their strength in talking
she has gone out and accomplished some
thing. She is tireless worker. During
the sessions of congress she can be seen al
most any day at the Capitol with bundles
of documents, petitions, memorials and
protests, placing them in the hands of leg
islators and reinforcing them with vigor-
GUS arguments. She presumes nothing
upon her sex. but meets men on their OWL
level, asking no privilege which man
might not ask and basing all her demands
on the justice of her cause. She enjoys the
friendship and esteem of many well known
public men, and can and does approach
them at all times and get respectful hear
ing of her demands for fair play to women.

region swarm1ng with neutral and secretly
loyal inhabitants. Many of the men met
with in the mountains were of the class
known as s1yers out" deserters from the
Confederate army and fugitive conscr1pts.
A hundred or more of these men were per-
suaded to Join brakes party on their
tramp toward the Union lines. Thus re-
enforced with guides and armed compan-
ions the prospects of the runaway prison
ers began to brighten. But they were not
out of the woods by a long ways, as the
sequel proved.
Striking and significant episodes are Oft
enest remembered and noted in after years,
and a narrative of this kind generally
seems made UP of streaks of luck, so that
the hard lines are obliterated and one al
most fancies such an adventure would be
a pastime. But if the pen could record
the literal bloodmarks, the groans OF pain,
the signs of the weary and fainting heart,
the cravings of hunger, the sudden alarms
and paroxysms of fear, and the thousand
and one daily and hourly experiences OF
such secret journey, the sin OF envy
would not follow the perusal OF these
columns. Most people would lay the story
down and conclude that a weeks camping
out by a mountain lake or along some
bosky trout brook was rough enough for
all purposes. 1t is amusing and even in
spring to light upon such incidents as the
wide eyed negro and his vanishing "pone,"
the sweet potato find, the pursuers chasing
the fugitives into the hands of friends and
the chivalrous Johnny Reb" warning
them to cross the river to safer ground.
Meanwhile there are gaps to be filled in
Drake had been five months in prison be-
fore he started on the journey. His single
shirt was threadbare from its six months
wear; his blouse was in tatters, and his
trousers only reached down to his knees.
His boots had given out on the tramp and
been abandoned, and he was barefooted
and bareheaded as well. The party had
reached the mountain region between North
Carolina and Tennessee, and the cold,
stormy weather of winter was upon them.
Two days after the company Of "lyers
out'' joined they awoke in mountain
cabin to find the ground covered with six
inches of snow. Drake says that his heart
sank within him when he looked out on
| that snow, but it was not through misgiv-
ings about venturing out in it with his
naked, bleeding feet. No; he was afraid
the new recruits would find some excuse
for delay-as in truth they did-which
would mean risk Of discovery and recapture.

by Archbishop Hughes. Archbishop Cor

eloquent address was delivered by Arch
bishop Ryan, of Philadelphia. The statue
is feet 9 inches high and stands upon
bronze plinth one foot thick, this IN turn
resting upon a granite pedestal 8 feet q
inches high. w. r. O'Danovan, the
sculptor who did the work, had never
seen the living archbishop and received
the order for the statue twenty-five years
after the latter's death, yet the statue ID

folds, masses and lines of the costume
being appropriate both for the purposes
of art and the expression of the character.
