Surrounded with Mystery.

DR.. A. B. Rose, aged II years, one of
the most prominent business men of
Charleston, s. c.. committed suicide by
blowing out his brains.
1t is difficult to assign cause for the deed.
He was president Of the South Carolina Agri-
cultural society, the oldest agricultural society
in the United States; also president OF the
Phosphate Miners exchange, of Charleston.
also president of the corporation of the Uni
tartan church. one of the Oldest churches of that
denomination in the state. and had served the
city as alderman for many terms. His intimate
connection with the business interests in the
city and his high social standing, as we'll as his

A Strange Case.

From hole not larger than a pin
point James Mullen, of Louisville. KY,
bled to death.
He had been i'll for several months, and his
malady baff1ed the physicians who attended
him. DR.. Wood, who was with him when he
died, ascribed his death to the fact that his
blood had lost all its coagulative power and had
taken in its appearance the quality of milk.
The corpuscles of tho blood had become per-
fectly white. From small scratch or cut the
blood flowed With such rapidity that on several
occasions 1t was scarcely able to be stopped be-
fore causing death. The other morning one of
the smallest of the blood vessels under the
tongue became broken The point where the
blood came from small that no danger
was apprehended at all. All efforts, however,
to stop the fow were futile. Every remedy
was resorted to, but to no avail, and in little
less than an hour Mr.. Mullen bled to death

The Record Broken.

There is woman in Key West, Fla,
not yet 40 years old, who is great
grandmother. She is Cuban,
and her name is Cortessio. When but
13 years old her first child was born-a
daughter. When Il years old this
daughter gave birth to daughter, and
the latter has discounted the perform
ance of her ancestors by becoming the
mother of a lusty son at the tender age
of II. She is married to cigar-maker,
and the son has been named in honor
of President Harrison. In that semi
tropical climate it is no unusual thing
for girls to get married and become
mothers at very early age, but this is
a record breaker.

An Incident of the Greatest Artillery Due
of History.

An Incident of the Greatest Artillery Duel
of History.
1t was at the battle of Gettysburg.
The greatest artillery duel in the his
tory of the world had ended Two long
hours the cannon of the confederates
had belched forth storm of thunder
and iron from the ridge they occupied,
while the union guns answered across
the valley from their eastern eminence.
When the firing ceased many of the
guns of the union batteries were dis
abled and crippled. An awful, ominous
silence ensued which gave place to that
wonderful moving picture of the great
charge made by Pickett.
Two columns proceeded by a line +
skirmishers advanced from the woods
on the ridge I'D by the confederate.
Down into the valley they moved in
perfect order. About three quarters f
mile must be traversed before they
would reach the union lines Half of
that distance was covered in magnif :
cent order. The sight of those moving
columns was thrilling, was terribly
beautiful. At seven hundred yards
they received desultory shots from the
few uncrippled guns, both batteries and
infantry reserving ammunition and
strength for nearer work. On, on came
those advancing columns, their arms
glittering in the afternoon sun, with
battle flags waving terrible as an army
with banners" for thirty-two flags
foated and tapped, in that first column.
The union forces looked on this scene
with an awe born of wonder, dazzled
with the terrible beauty of the sight.
1t was charge ablaze with courage,
bravery, that commanded admiration.
On came those magnificent columns,
now within five hundred, now four hun
I bred, now three hundred yards of the
union position. They had not yet been
met with the rattle of musketry. The
infantry waited with feverish excite
ment.
When two hundred yards was reached
and the storm had not yet broken, a
/ young lieutenant from division head
! quarters on a coal black horse dashed
between the two forces and galloped up
and down the front of the union line
| galloped up and down dispelling that
admiring awe, bringing relief to that
sickening awaiting, breaking the spell
of the terrible fascination; galloped up
and down with orders to fire; galloped
up and down while scores of confederate
bullets went screaming after him; gal
loped up and down cheering, with the
orders to fire; galloped up and down
and fell with half dozen bullets in his
] charger and one in his arm, falling
while the union infantry poured into
those advancing columns their hail
shower of biting, singing bullets.
That army, terrible with its battle flags
and courage, wavered and came on to
meet in terrific combat.-Peck's Sun.

ALL THE FACTS.
An Old Sailors Graphic Account of the
Battle of New Orleans.

Admiral Bailey, of the United States
navy, was a fine example of the delight
full combination of great courage and
great modesty. After the capture of
New Orleans, during the civil war; he
attended a dinner given at the Astor
house, and was called upon to reply to
the toast of ''The Navy" The presi-
dent of the occasion prefaced the senti-
ment with eulogy of the admiral
AS in duty bound the old sailor
Strengthened himself up for the task.
''Mr. President" he said, land gem
tlemen-hem-thank We"
Then, after a lengthy pause, during
which he took a fore-and-aft survey of
the table, he continued:
''Well, suppose you want to hear
about that New Orleans AFFAIR.""
.'Yesl yes!" echoed through the room,
amid the stamping of many feet
''Well, dye see, this was the way of
it, " resumed the orator, giving nauti-
cal hitch to his trousers, and evidently
embarrassed. ''We were lying down
the river, below the forts, and Farragut
he-he signalled US to go in and take
'em. Being as we were already hove
short, it didn't take much time to get
under way, so that wasn't so much of
job as you seem to think.
'tAnd then the engineers-'hey ran
the ships, SO all we had to do was to
blaze away when we got up to the
forts, and take EN-, according to orders.
That's just all there was about it."
Thereupon the concise narrator, feel
ing that he had accomplished every
thing which had been demanded of
him, sat down amid thunders of APP

WAR "REMINISCENCES.
WAITING FOR THE HueLE.


We wait Tor the bugle. The night dews are
cold;
Tie limbs OF the soldiers feel jaded and old;
Inc held Of our biyOuac is windy and bare;
There is lead in our joints there IS frost in our
hair;
The future IS yelled and its fortune unknown,
As We lie with hushed breath till the bug!e Is
blown
Al the sound Of the bugle each comrade shall
spring
Like an arrow release2 from the strain Of the
string;
The courage, the impulse Of youth shall come
back
To Danish the chill OF the dear bivouac.
And sorrows, and losses and cares fade away
When the ife-giving signal proclaims the new
day.
Though the bivOuac of age may put ice in our
veins,
Ana no hber OF steel in our sinew remains
Though the comrades Of yesterdays march are
not here,
And the sunlight seems pale and the branches
are sere;
Though the sound of our cheering dies down to
moan,
We shall find our lost youth when the bugle is
blown.

GRADES AND SCRUBS.
To Make Money i'm the Cattle Business Is
No Child's Play.

No Child's Play.
OF course the farmer wants to feed
his surplus, at least in part, to the cat
tie giving the most for the amount
fed. He knows, or ought to know, that
there is more than so per cent advan-
tage in this regard in favor of high
grades. The only way he can have
good grade cattle is to have pure bred
sire at the head of the herd. He knows
this also. These are all very plain
propositions. lie can have good grade
beeves weighing 600 to 500 pounds at
yearlings, or he can have the product of
common sires weighing 800 to 500 at
yearlings. All these things are plainly
before him, not in theory only, but in
actual observation and experience.
Not only so, but the grades will bring
him one to two cents per pound more
than the common ones. This also is
before his eyes in the market every
week in the year. Thus the farmer
may pursue policy that will impov.
erish, or make him profits. He is
the architect of his own fortune.
or the barrier to it. 1t is a plain
matter when the difference OF
so to 40 per cent. is before him
in the matter of his manage
ment, so far as cattle are concerned.
He would think it remarkable if his
neighbor was still holding on to the
elm peeler hog, weighing 200 pounds II
three years old only, for the breed OF
hogs have improved, and he is in that
swim himself. The difference in fact
is the same between common and grade
cattle, aud yet many hold on to the
scrub bull If we could only see our
selves as others see us!
Pertinent to this subject the Live
Stock Indicator says: mo money in
cattle, shouts one man. Half dozen
take up the chorus and dolefully sound
the sad refrain until a majority would
believe the wOeful fallacy is really
true, were it not the fact that here and
there can be found men who have
made money in the cattle business
(names need not Le given and are
making money now"
1t might be just as well for all con-
cerned to say right now that to make
money in the cattle business is no
child's play-that it has to be conduct
ed on business principles, requiring in
telligence and far-seeing sagacity, com
bined with steadfastness of purpose.
If, then, men will embark in such bust
ness, and have neither knowledge,
judgment nor experience, is it any won
der they miss it?"-Farm, Field and
