AN INTERVIEW.


81 am a native of fOhio," said Mrs.
Woodwork. my present home is
in Rochester, Ind. l was ordained
a United Brethren preacher
aud had calls from other de-
nominations, but declined all.
The church of God seeks to save
men by conversion and Christ s
methods only, recognizing no ordi-
nance as door TO the church. All
denominations assist me wherever |
go. l have no salary, but rely only
on voluntary contributions. We
work in tents because we can reach
the masses in that way, and people
are more united and open to the
work of the spirit of God in tent
than in any church. In Oakland
we saved 1000 souls; the people
bought us a tentthat would hold 5000,
and yet we turned thousands away.
We are always attacked by some
newspapers but that only helps us.
Our meetings are open to all, even to
the lowest"

Blackfoot news. (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1891-1902, 1892-12-24

ON the first day of the Wilderness
fight, says Major Wright. in "GIimpses
Of the Nations Struggle, " the Adjutant
of the One Hundred and Forty-Sixth
New York was FRUSTRATED by a Mimic
bullet which shattered his left arm.
He crawled into ditch, across which
the Confederate lines charged, and
were repulsed. The ditch was soon
filled with the wounded and unwound-
ed of both armies.
All that afternoon the fire, was so
hot that not a man dared to raise his
head above the ditch. A majority of
its occupants were Confederates, one
whom, an officer of the Tenth Virginia,
ordered his men to spread blankets for
the wounded Adjutant, and to make
him as comfortable as possible.
As darkness drew on, the wounded
Adjutant told the Confederate officer
that If he could get into the Union
lines he could secure better medical at
tendance, and that, being wounded, he
was not worth much as a prisoner.
IF You can get there you are at lib
erty to do so, replied the Confederate
Tire Adjutant exchanged cards and
shook hands with the officer, and both
men climbed out of the ditch, but on
opposite sides. The Adjutant reached
the Union lines, where his arm was
amputated and he was sent home.

Battle OF aIurrree.horourh.

From the Alabama Soldier.
AT the battle of Murfreesb borough. in
Col. Sharpe's absence, the command Of
Blythe's Mississippi regiment devolved
upon Major Thompson, as brave a man
as ever lived, but whose brain had been
shriyeled by age and ..bust-head'' the
was 20 years of age and had drank
nearly all his life) until it was very
hard at times for him to think of the
word he wanted, especially military
terms. At a certain point in
the battle the grape from
one of Sherman's batteries began
to whistle with disgusting frequency
and in disturbing proximity to the
boys and the gallant Major. lie
turned to Adj-Lieut. Charlie Odom Of
the DeSoto Beauregards, and inquired
where they came from. Being told
that they came from Yankee battery
just upon wooded knoll not far away,
he inquired in some excitement: ssWhy
in the h-ll don't they capture the
d--n thing?' The reply was the
same as Jones made when asked
why he didn't whip his wife: The
little thing can't be did, As several
brigades had already been torn to
pieces in the effort and all had failed.
the old heroes face flushed, his eve
flashed, and raising himself in his
stirrups, he shouted: ''The Blythe can
take it. Attention! Form line, for
ward, charged The men obeyed as
they had always done, until they and
the Major found themselves in an old
cotton field 100 yards from the bat
terry, exposed to such hail Of grape
and canister as they had never
seen or felt before Old Blu
cher Cas he was called) saw
the folly of any further movement in
that direction, called halt and or
dered the men to lie down. which or
ders were both obeyed with alacr1ty:
but having got there, the question
with the Major was how to get away.
The men were being killed by the
score. The ridges afforded scarcely
any protection, and to remain there
long meant the utter destruction
of the command In vain the old
hero searched his memory for the
command by which a well-drilIed rcgi-
ment land Sharpe had drilled themJ
could be taken out of such a desperate
pickle. At last, in despair, he turned
to the Adjutant and exclaimed;
Charlie, d-n the military evolu-
tions; l never could think of the word
of command at the right time . Then,
turning to the regiment. as they lay
sprawling on the ground, he shouted:
=" Bout face, men, and run like hi or
you'll all be killed in minute.' This
order was obeycd like all others, with
out comment or criticism, and to his
credit, be it said, as in every other re-
treat the Blythe regiment made, while
he lived, the brave old Major brought
up the rear
