IaDuse,s portra,t.

A photograph of Eleanora Duse now
on exhibition attracts constant atten
ton. The picture is far removed bot
in expression and costume from the Oh
binary actress. The hair, guiltless OF
curl or bang, looks decidedly "tousled,"
a straight, disheveled lock straying
across the forehead. The face is neither
young nor beautiful and is ineffably
sad. The dark, melancholy eyes look
YEARLY away from the beholder. Mime.
Duse wears high black gown without
ornament. philadelphia Press.

William ]. Wray, of the Birney
Zouaves, at the battle OF Fort Stevens,
at which time he was but II years Of age,
was awarded medal OF honss for his de-
tcrmined bravery in assisting to rally a
color company under severe FIRE, and
was wounded in the head and lost an eye.
There were only 600 medals Of honor
granted by Congress, and the wearers
prize them as the apple Of their eye. Won
alike by officer and private, the medal
commentaries the deeds, not the official
position Of the man.

yon.n In a short time along came the
Confederates. They stopped close to the
log where the poor soldier lay nearly
frightened to death. He heard them say,
There Is no one 10 there" and then
they passed on. The soldier stayed In
bis log until the next morning, when he
made his escape back to his fellow-sol-
diers.
