During the presidential campaign OF
1872, President Grant. at small dinner
given in his honor by Gen. Harvey. OF

calling some of his old war memories.
Among other stories, he told, modestly
enough, of his movements around Vicl1s-

The advance Of the confederate line
Of battle commenced early on the
morning of July l. 1868, at Gettysburg.
The infantry division commanded by
Maj Gen John b. Gordon. of Georgia,
was the first to attack. Its objective point
was the left of the Second corps of the
union army. The daring commander
of the corps occupied position so far
advanced beyond the main line of the
federal army that, while it invited at
tack, it placed him beyond the reach of
ready support when the crisis OF battle
came to him in the rush of charging
lines more extended than his own.
The confederate advance was steady,
and it was bravely met by the union
troops, who for the first time found
themselves engaged in battle on the
soil of the north, which until then had
been virgin to the war 1t was "a
far cry" from Richmond to Gettysburg,
yet Lee was in their front, and they
seemed resolved to welcome their

with US a Swede who was an intelli-

Grant and had bought wood of him in
Missouri The Swede walked over to
the railing next the boat on which
the famous general was walking with
two companies.
Suddenly Gen. Grant turned, and,
walking to the side of the boat, took
the Swede by the hand and said:

second time, and, to Judge by the looks
of his handsome face, was glad to see

Finally the Swede asked Grant when
he thought the war would be over.
This was in the winter of 1864.
"Comrade, said Grant, ~ can tell
you little more than you already know.

Bold Thieving.

Last evening Dodic's clothing
store on West Commerce street
was visited by two men, apparent
ly for the purpose of purchasing
some goods. When an opportunity
presented itself they each grabbed
a suit of clothing and started to
run out, Dodic was sharp, how
ever, and grabbed one of the men,
while the other was permitted to
escape. The captured man was
taken to the central police station,
where he gave his name as Walter
McAndrews. He will remain in
jail pending an investigation by
the grand jury, which cOnvenes

At the Association Parlors Last
Night-Oficers Chosen.

The parlor of the Young Mems
Christian association was filled
with young men last evening, in

bic to United States citizenship"
The debaters were: Affirmative,
Il. C. Groos and w. b. Russ. Mega.
tive, E. J. Giddings and 0. Trucker.
Each side occupied about thirty
minutes and handled the sub
iect in a creditable manner. GrOOs
and Siddings were the leaders and
made it warm for each other. The
debate was decided in favor of the
negative.
The election of officers of the So
ciety occurred after the debate when
the following were elected for the
ensuing quarter: James Rout-
ledge, president; O. A. Pfetfer, vice
president; l.. II. COllett, secretary;
F. c. GrOOs, treasurer.
Next Friday night they will de-
bate on the following subject: Ore

tenn should be abolished" Affirm

Serious Runaway Accident.

About 10 o'clock this morning a
serious runaway accident occurred
on Laredo street, in which G. Ma
bue was injured. 1t seems that Mr..
Nabue was driving along Laredo
street, when his horse became
frightened and ran away dumping
the occupant out on the street. In
the fall Mr.. Nabue's head struck a
large rock and was cut seriously.
The horse was stopped by Officer
Porter and the unfortunate man
was taken to his home on North

Our county court at its last
meeting, orders an election to
create a forty years, five per cent
gold debt to build bridges and
make roads of 100000.
That court, not satisfied with
plunging our county into a debt of
100000 or 100000, (half at least
of which will go as "swag") to
build court house, when 100000
well expended would have done
the work; and now comes cries for
100000. Vote it down. The pres
ent head of our county court sold
bonds of our city, and practically
threw the money away until we
are bankrupt for a generation.
Shall our county follow? If our
people vote this 100000, how
much of it will go to carry our
county election next year, and how
much to roads and bridges?
