Long Days and Short Nights.

Properly this should be, as it common
ly is, the hottest part of the year. The
21st OF June is the longest day jn the
year in the northern hemisphere. 1t
Das moro than fourteen hours of sun
light, while the night has less than ten
hours in which to allow nature to cool
off. For nearly two weeks, both before
and after the 2lst instant, the days are
but little shorter, and, as consequence,
there should be a storing up of heat
that must necessarily make itself felt.
The days and nights will not be equal
until the Goth of September, when, in
this latitude, the sun will iise and set
at an equal distance of time from noon.

According to an article published in
the Blue aud Grey Mdga,ine therc was
a desperate hand to hand fight during
he war between the Twenty third New
Jersey and the Ninth Alabama Regi-
ments at Salem Church, Va, near Fred
ericksburg. The battle ground has
been purchased by Gen. T. Burd Grubb,
who was the colonel of the New Jersey
troops engaged in the fight aud were f.
naliy repulscd after the majority of the
regiment had been killed and wounded.
On this field once reddcned with the
blood Of the soldiers of the North and
South the survivors of the 23d New Jer-
sey will erect monument to those who
fell OH both sides, aud the shaft will
bear the names of the Ninth Alabama
as well the 23d New Jersey who died for
what they believed to be a just cause.
This is truly q mixing of the Blue and
Gray, and evidences in very striking
way that the war is over, aud the once
"bloohy chasm " has been closed by the
strong bonds of fraternity. The poll
ticians may not relish the action of the
Twenty third New Jersey, but the peo-
pie who are rejoicing because of re-
united country will applaud that gallant
command.-N. 0. Daily States.

That II had no case IN equity, as it had
not been shown that any injury or

"And l helped to make this possible"
There is some talk of making one of the many
hotels near the Worlds Fair Grounds Ladies
of the Grand Army of the Republic" Head
quarters. The plans are not as yet perfected.
OF course you heard of the awful loss of life at
the burning of the cold-storage plant. One of our
brave heroes of 1861-1865 lost his lfe-Capt.
Fitzpatrick. Loving hands placed the Ameri-
can flag on his breast. The Ladies of the G. "A R.
will travel many miles that the American flag
shall be placed upon the breasts of the sleeping
heroes ere they are laid to rest, and in large
city like Chicago many flags are used during
the year. Sisters, come and see us if you are
in the city when we have our Circle meetings,
the second and fourth Wednesday afternoons of
each month, in room 309 Masonic Temple /
assure you a cordial welcome.
Mrs. Nette e. Gunloek, National Correspond
ing Secretary, Ladies of the g. A. R., 1888
