A sIohammedan Evasion

MOhammedan religion it is sin TO make .
picture of any living thing. The elaborate
decorations of the palaces and mosques Of
the east are almost exclusively made up Of
ingeniously interlaced geOmetric designs,
arabesques or flowers, intermixed with SEN
fences of the Koran
There is a belief among Mussulmans that
at the day of judgment Allah will demand
that the artist who has made the image OF
a living thing shall endow that image with
life, and that failing to do this the artist

A gentleman who visited a mosque in

''Oh, no." answered the pious Algerian

The campaign of 1868 in the Army of the
Potomac was one of warfare in the saddle
for the cavalry. The mounted infantry
phase came late in the following year,
but before the romance period faded the
First Maine had one more chance to win
unique distinction for daring work. A detail
of 300 was chosen by Fitzpatrick to ride on
the famous raid to Richmond in February,
1854. Later when Fitzpatrick and the rash
Dahlgren divided forces, five companies OF
the Maine boys headed the little column
of 500 which Dahlgren led with such
fatal results against the works of the Con-
federate capital. This ride of unexampled

deaths in prison and IS lingering captives
Then followed the era of swift rides and
sharp fights of dismounted cavalry.
On the 18th of May, 1864, in Sheridan's
Richmond raid, the First Maine was rear
guard when Stuart was defeated at Yellow
Tavern. The Maine boys fought on foot
and on horseback, and broke for the first
time under the pressure of whole brigade.
The loss was killed and IL wounded.
The next fight of the regiment was as
warm as any cavalry engagement on rec
ord, and Gregg's division again bore the
brunt. This was at st. Mary's Church,
Va, June "a, when Wade Hampton with
a large mounted force attempted to cut off

swept on up the hill into and over the bat

In the melee the ranks were broken and
the leader waited few minutes to rally
the survivors, the enemy meantime rush

The column reformed and rode straight
for the battery again. then with a sudden
swerve the flank avoided it and galloped
back to the brigade. Only / killed, 9
wounded and IS captured were the cas-
ualties, but Fitzpatrick told the boys on
the spot that it was lone of the best charges

from defeat. Fitzpatrick got a star for the
exploit, and thanked the First Maine for
winning il.
