PORTLAND Is EXCITED.

The Democratic City Clerk, John 8.

Frauds.
PORTLAND. de, March 10.-Ths city Is
In fever of excitement over the confess
sion of the democratic city clerk, John s.
Russell, that there were frauds In Ward
on election day. Russell this morning
said that on the night after election when
1t was discovered that there were too
many unused ballots returned from Ward
1, someone entered his Office, tore open
the returned ballots from that ward, alb
stracted one hundred and took them away
Since then, Russell Gays, great pressure
has been brought to bear upon him to
keep the check list from the republicans,
as IL would show one hundred less names
checked than the number of ballots cast In
the ward. Messrs. Hicks and Howe, who
were Furnished with certificates of cleo
ton as councilmen, have returned their
commissions and will not take their seats.

Two instances are cited. On one OF
the long marches where rations were
scarce, man in Company A stole a
chicken, Notwithstanding the general
orders against foraging. Not knowing
when he would have a chance to cook
it, he put it alive in his havcrsack.
The chicken peeped loudly, and as
the soldier was near the head Of the
regiment Col. Berdan could not we'll
pretend that he did not hear it, The
soldier was put in the guard house,
and at court martial the next day the
colonel asked why he was under ar
rest.
For stealing chicken, replied the
soldier,
"Are you sure?" asked the colonel.
"Yes, responded the man, meekly
Keep him under guard at the rear
of the regiment" ordered the colonel.
A day or so later the soldier was
again questioned and gave the same
answer.
For the third time he was questioned
and becoming more outspoken because
of his long humiliation, he changed
his answer.
"For not having cut the chickens
head off, he said.
GO to your company" said the col
onel. No more chickens were carried
alive in haversacks.
On another occasion, when the regi-
ment camped for the night, there was
no wood for fire to boil the coffee, SO
that, despite orders to the contrary,
the men were compelled to take fence
rails. One of the men, in order to
save time, made short cut, which
took him in front of the colonel's tent.
He was at once brought to . halt,
and then and there made to march in
front of the tent for half hour with
the rail across his back. The colonel
then stopped him and asked him if he
knew for what he had been punished.
"Oh, yes! because did not go be-
hind your tent" was his prompt reply.

colonel.

his comrades, and the old proverb was
made clear to him that ''the longest

Soldier and Christian.

While the annual reunions of the Con-
federate veterans are being held over
the state, says the HARRISON GA Ban
ner, there is member of Company
of the Forty-frst Georgia regiment
living in this county who was in every
battle fought by his regiment, in every
skirmish in which his company was
engaged, in every charge made by his
command, and did not fire gun. He
was them, and is now, minister of the
gospel. He did not believe in killing
men, and frequently charged the
enemy with yell, saw his comrades
fall by his side, and whether routing
the Union soldiers or being routed he
would not shoot.
He was always ready for duty-stood
guard, remained at the picket post, and
obeyed implicitly every comand of his
superior officers except to draw cart
ridges, load his gun, and shoot At
New Hope Church, on the retreat from
Dalton, several rounds of cartridges
were issued to the soldiers, and he took
one, and short time afterward he was
struck by spent ball, but not hurt.
This remarkable man is successful
farmer and splendid preacher, and is
named Zachariah P. Hardigree.

Waves ON the Great Salt Lake.

A correspondent of the Companion
recently witnessed most convincing
proof Of the weight of the salt.laden
waters OF the Great Salt Lake. A
strong gale of wind was blowing over
the lake, and driving its surface in
to low, white-capped ridges, while
along the shore the foam lay like fiat
banks of new-fallen snow, If 1t had
passed across lake Of fresh water
of equal extent that wind would UNI
questionably have produced such an
agitation of its surface that navi-
CATION In small boats would have been
difficult if not highly perilous.
But the waters of the Great Salt
Lake, although driven into ridges as
just remarked showed a curious re-
sistance to the wind aud the waves,
rising to only slight elevation,
moved along with an appearance Of
lethargy that the eye could not but
notice.
Yet there was an immense momen-
tum stored up in those low, heavy,
slow-movlng waves. Venturing into
the water at point where the depth
did not exceed four feet the observer
found that it was impossible to stand
against them, Their sheer weight
swept him resistlessly along.
The curious buOyancy of the water,
containing twenty-five per cent. of
salt in solution, increased the help
lessness of the bather He was not
submerged, as sometimes occurs in
the Atlantic breakers, but was lifted
and carried like a cork.
1t would probably have been i'm
possible to dive through an On-com-
ing wave after the matter practiced
by bathers along the Atlantic coast.
In the Great Salt Lake people are
not drowned through sinking, but
strangled while still anoat, The Bit
ter water may enter the air passages
with fatal effect, but the body CON

THE FArALIsTlo TURK.


How lie Braves Death Mt tho Holy City
OF Ills Faith.
The accounts given by the pilgrims
of the way in which cholera attacked
them are terrible In their grim
fatalism, says the London Spectator
June "a, two days before the CourOan
Bairam, upward of 1907 Mussul-
mans, Arabs, Turks, and Indians had
gathered on the sacred mount to
hear the solemn address which is de-
liyered to those who wish to become
hadji. Many Of these people were in
the most wretched condition, and
some had not even loaf of bread.
1t was here that the disease APP
pears to have struck them, like the
blast of poisoned wind When
next day the onward movement to
the holy city began it was found that
the ground was Strewn like a battle
field with the dead and dying, and
so terribly virulent was the type Of
infection thus engendere1 that 1t
was, says the account, impossible for
any living creature to approach the
place.
The authorities seem, however, to
have realized that something must
be done, and that the bodies could
not be left to rot Accordingly, a
Turkish regiment was sent to per.
form the work of burial and to re-
move any Of the pilgrims who still
lived, Never did troops in the heat
Of battle receive a command more
fraught with peril, The risk, as 1t
proved, was literally greater than
that Of facing machine guns, and the
moral effect was far more terrible.
There are ten men who will face
death by bullets to one who will face
death by cholera. Yet these Turkish
soldiers, with the fatalistc courage
of their race, ob2yed as they obeyed
at Plevna.
The battalion, when 1t reached the
mount, was 700 strong. After the
work had been done 200 men only re-
manned 10 go BACK 10 Jne coast. FIVE
hundred of the soldiers had died of
cholera That is, nearly three-quar-
tiers of the regiment persisted in the
work Of burial. No doubt English
troops would have been upheld by
many considerations-by religious
feeling and by the instinct of mercy,
and they would moreover, have been
well fed.
The Turkish troops probably felt
the sense of pity very little, and
their officers were almost certainly
men with anything but high sense
Of conduct. They acted merely from
the most naked sense of the duty of
not hinching at command 1t was
an order given from afar and from
above, and that and fate are to them
all one.

When the Colonel swore.

Colonel Barney of the Sixth Yer.
mont was a man of great piety. He
had prayers at headquarters every day
In one of the battles on the peninsula,
i'm 1862, the rebels surprised the bri
gade of which the Sixth Vermont was
part and came down upon the
Yankees like torrent. Colonel Bar
ney had great difficulty in preserving
his line of battle. He went up and
down the regiment swearing like a
pirate; but his regiment held its
ground and repulsed the rebels,
and that evening he said to yonng
Burleson, who was a neighbor of his in
Vermont and who knew the family

well, Georgy, we drove them back
handsomely, didn't we?"
I'VE did that, colonel, but 1 never
was so surprised in my life as was to
hear you swear"
What heard me swear? / never

"But, colonel, you swore terribly"
"Why, you are mistaken, 1 never
swear"
Just then one of the lieutenants of
the regiment came along and Sergeant
Burleson asked him if he noticed any
thing peculiar about the colonel in the
battle.
Il did, and so did all of u.s..
what was ?" asked the colonel.
"You swore like an old stager. l
