FLAGS FOR THE FAIR.
Thousands Of Banners Represent
 ing Other Nations.
Interesting Sights to Be Seen at the Ex- position Grounds -- The Danger ous W-rk of the
 Painters.

The flags for the poles which stud every building on the worlds fair grounds are coming in fast, and the order which has been placed with a Trench firm Cf farnakers will soon be completed. At present nine hundrcd lag-pole5 are in position. Before the fair opens tllc number will run into the thouscndS. When each pole displays Q 1lag the decorative effect will be enc Of the striking features Of the fair. Tho Gays represent tho colors Of foGty-fivc nationan-ies. The storehouse for the ,ic,e2rt,nc2t is the south hail of the hor- ticulturci bSi.,.ilis, where aaTlplo flags of every nGtio22iity arc hanging, a pretty ard interesting sight which is worth Ghe attention of 8 passing visitor.
 A dczen rcrvy painters have jCst commenced tllc task of painting the roof and girdcrs Of the manufactures building. Not few visitors pass under them each day and gaze upward with breatklcss interest fer five minutes, un- Gl. having assured themselves that no one is going to fell just yet, they pass on in search of greater wonders. It i5 not so rlucL the fact that the men arc working at an elevation of So many feet that causes astonishment as the daring heediessness Of their actions. With a catlike activity they slide along steel rods So parrow that their heels project on one side while their toes can be seen on the other. They seat them selves On nine inch blanks which are simply placed, net tied, across these same rods, and ply their brushes with as much speed as if there were no drop of one hundred feet beneath with sud- den death at the end 4 hasty move or a moments vertigo, and there would be one painter less employed by the deco ration department of the Columbian exposition,
 I'm expecting a call to the manu- factures building every day, and know what it will mean,'' is the way Patrol Sergeant King tersely expresses it.
 When the painters have covered the roof with an artistic coat Of light blue color another set of men will commence an equally difficult and daring task. The director of works has said that un- der every glass roof in the exposition must be placed an awning to moderate the heat of next summers sun. C. H. Wiggins has charge of the men who will do this work and he calls it the most awkward job he has yet undertaken. Foreman Wiggins speaks with author ity, for he has painted church steeplCs and 1ag-posts in every state of the union. The men who hang the awning will have nothing to aid them but their own hands and feet, the quickness of their eyes, and the steadiness of their heads. They must spread one hundred and forty thousand yards of canvas un- der the roof of the manufactures build ing alone.

cept the three men whose graves / hav'
described. Ncrved by drink and a sens,
OF injury, they boldly entered the towr
and with oaths boasted that they would
exterminate the whole Of Stoneman's
army.
In another hour the head of the army
appeared AT the outskirts Of the village
by this time the three men were crazed
. by liquor, and in marching order, with
Bordunix in the lead, acting as COM
niander, boldly advanced 10 meet the
great army of Stoneman with as little
fear as did David TO battle with tho
mighty hosts of the Philistines. When
within a stones throw of the front of
the column they entered field thiclSly
grown with bushes. The march of the
three men was watched with interest
by the inhabitants of the town, who
had turned out In full force to see the
army pass. They had no idea that the
boasts OF the men were more than idle
threats. After entering the field Bordi-
nux halted his followers, and greatly 10
the amusement of the union troops put
them through drill. They were greeted
with good-natured cries from the
soldiers, giving the rebel war cry
OF "fip, yip, yahr' Finally Bordi-
nux gave the order to aim and then
to fire, at the same time suiting
the action to the word. The amaze
mont OF the unionists can be imagined
when two of their number fell seriously
wounded Before they had fully re-
covered from their surprise another
volley was fired, wounding others.
The three men hastily retreated. The
town was searched, but they were not
found, as they had gone further down
the road. The army moved forward,
and mile from town was again fired
upon, this time from ambush. The
order was given to capture them alive,
and they were charged by at least five
hundred men, but were not taken, as
they apparently knew the rough country
well.
Another mile and three more union
soldiers fall under their aim. Two
miles further on three others fell out of
the ranks and were carried To the road
side to await the arrival of the ambu-
lance. The three avengers fastened
forward and found concealment in a
graveyard beside the highway. Here
they waited again for Stoneman's
army. The troops were ordered to fire
II another assault was made. They ad-
nervously for the fifth time.
the crack of three rifles was
heard, and the roar of five hundred
answered it. The mad Vir-
yinians fell riddled with bullets and
we're buried where they fell. Theirs
was the last blood shed in the war.

BoRDUNIx's BAND ATTACKING THE ARMY.

BoRDUNIX's BAND ATTACKING THE ARMY
remaining in North Carolina, as he had
been ordered by Gen. Sherman, he left
and entered Jonesboro, in the eastern
part of Tennessee, April Is, where he
received the news of Lees surrender.
All this time the ranks OF the secret
organization in Floyd and Wythe coun-
ties had been considerably increased in
numbers by the enlistment of discharged
soldiers from Lees disbanded army.
When the news arrived that Stoncman
and his cavalry would pass through
Floyd county on his way TO Washing
ton, wiser and older heads tried TO pre-
vail on the young enthusiasts TO abandon
their plan of revenge, but with appar-
emily little or no effect.
On May is Stoneman, with six thou
sand cavalry, ten thousand infantry and
twenty-three guns, started on hun
dred mile march over the mountains, TO
the Virginia and Tennessee railroad. at
Christiansburg, TO embark for Wash
ington.
Mounted couriers of Floyd county's
little army were Immediately dis
patched from different sections To In
form the recruits in outlying districts
of the movements of Stoneman's army
and TO notify them 10 gather at Floyd
Court House under arms. IL was the in
tention Of the foremost i'm the scheme
20 secretc the men in different parts OF
the town and neiehborhood and at the
appearance of the army TO fire on them
from their places Of concealment and
thus harass the northerners for a dis
tance of ten miles on each side of the
town. Early in the morning of Nav 90
two hundred ex-confcderate soldiers
and recruits had arrived at the town.
As the day advanced and no new ar-
rivals were reported they became dis
heartcned and desertions were numer-
Gus. Another hour passed and the nd
vance guard Of Stoncmans army was
reported within ten miles of Floyd
Court House. by the time the informa-
tion was received about one hundred
men. all that remained Of the bold
band, were concealed along the high
way. But as soon as the federal column
hove in sight the self-appointed pro-
tectors Of Floyd county descrted--ey.

of one of the headstones which have
almost fallen over the neglected graves,
is the following simple inscription:
"William Bordunix, Born January 10,
1910, Died May "a, 1865" The two others
have similar Inscriptions.
In that isolated, mountainous coun.
try, forty miles from the nearest rail-
road, their names are famous. They
were the last men slain in the war of
the rebellion.
Forty-three days after the surrender
of Gen. Lee they gave their lives on the
altar of the dead confederacy. Nor is
il the fact that they were the last men
killed in the rebellion that has made
their names famous in that community.
History does not record the battle in
which they were killed The engage
ment took place May 90, 1865, or forty
three days after the close of the late
conflict IL was most daring attack
Of rebel soldiers on northern troops. It
was also disastrous to the attacking
party, every one of them being killed.
After Gen. George ID. Stoneman's re-
turn to Greensboro, n. c., from his sue
cessful Knoxville expedition, he was or
dered TO take command Of Thompson's
cavalry and advance eastward and de-
stroy the Virginia g. Tennessee railroad,
now the Norfolk & Western On March
20 he started on this expedition, but
turned north at Boone, n. c. Eytering
the valley at New river. IN Virginia, he
captured Wytheville and continued
along the railroad, destroying it nearly
to Lynchburg. On this raid he laid
waste miles of adjoining country. AS
this had been the first invasion of north
ern troops into Floyd and Wythe coun-
ties, the inhabitants of them were very
bitter against Gen. Stoneman. The
more the raid was talked of, the more
bitter became the spirit of the people,
and many were the threats made
against Stoneman and his troopers.
William Beaden, who gave the writer
the facts while standing at Bordunix's
grave, said that secret organization,
whose object was to be revenged on
Gen. Stoneman, was formed directly
after the surrender of Gen. Lee of all
the young men who had not previously
taken active part in the war, and of
rebel soldiers home on leave of alb
sence.
