LINGERING VETERANS.
Soldiers and Sailors who Fought with
wellington, Napoleon and Nelson.

Less than year has elapsed since
the death of the last French survivor
of the battle of Trafalgar, triumph
of British naval skill and valor which
stultified the projects of Napoleon the
Great for the subjugation of this coun-
try, and temporarily obliterated the
French navy from the list of important
factors in the problem of European
politics.
OF the many tremendous reverses
suffered on land and sea by the forces
of France under the regime of the
First Empire, four in particular may
be said to have permanently affected
the destinies of civilized mankind.
These were Nelson's supreme victory
Oft Cape Trafalgar, the Battle of the
Nations hard by Leipzig, the tragical
Retreat from Moscow. and that fate
full encounter which Byron Indignantly
stigmatized as "the GROWING carnage.
Waterloo.
Our own times have been so rife
with military achievements of the first
moment that these mighty war-feats.
although performed during the cur
rent century, seem as far removed
from men of the present day as Blen-
helm and Families, or even Poitiers
and Agincourt. Yet there are veter-
ans still living in half dozen Euro
pean realms who took part in the cam
paigns of 1SlS-14-l5, and only few
days ago, in quiet Norfolk township.

march from Boroduo to the western
frontier of Poland, which eusued upon
the burning of Moscow and the disas-
trous evacuation of central Russia by
the Napoleonic hosts.-London Teie-

that the blow, when it fell, was all the

A sudden feeling came over him-s
strange. uncanny, mysterious feeling
"a sense of an inward chasm yawning

sting and tear and buzz.
He threw back his head in the en-.

incubus 1t was in vain. His eyes
distended, his very hair stood on end
for fright. His nostrils dilated, and
the air grew dark and thick about
him, as he lost the power of breath.

concerning the mystery called death.

JOYS OF COUNTRY BOYS.
Censidering Their Pastimes the City Boys
Have no Fun at All.

One winter we caught pair OF n.y.
ing squirrels, which we proceeded to
tame, writes Minot j. Savage in the
Neto Peterson. We made a cage for
them, fed them, and played with them
until they knew we were not their en-
emies. Jack, the male squirrel, we
could never do much with. He evil
IDENTIFY thought it was his duty to hight
for the honor OF his tribe. His teeth
were sharp, and we never felt sure
that he might not try them on our fin
gers at any moment. But Fanny
well. girls are always more civilized
than boys-became the dearest and
most lovable little squirrel in the
world. We could let her out Of the
cage without any danger of her run
ming away. We used to carry her
about In our pockets, to which she
took kindly rs If they were nests spe-
cially arranged for her comfort She
would run up and down our clothes, as
II VIZ were animated trees for her to
climb; and, perched on our shoulders,
she would allow herself TO be carried
about when we were at play.
At one time we had pair of gray
squirrels; then it would be pair Of
red ones-all of which we had caught
in the same way. Thus we made init
mate acquaintance Of the different in
habitanLs of the woods.
As look back over these DAYS, and
then see my own boy on the sidewalks
and In the midst of brick walls, with
policemen in every direction to see
that no child does anything he wants
to, l can appreciate the pathos with
which he cried out one day: "City
boys don't have any fun" know, at
any rate, that we country boys did
have fun. and lots of it, both in kind

BrSMARCk'S cOURTSHlP.
He Was at First Bluntly Refused the
Hand of Frauiein Puttkamer.

In his youth Bismarck was terribly
wild. "The mad Bismarck" his neigh
bors called him. Drinking. lighting
and horseplay seemed to be his sole
amuse ments. He would fill his an
cestral home at Schoenhausen with
guests and insist that no one should
rise from the supper table till sunrise
was at hand; then those who were sober
enough would 90 to bed and those who
were not sober enough would sleep I'M
der the table. Bismarck, the heaviest
drinker Of all, would remain sober as
Judge and would amuse himself. aft
er his guests had retired, in firing
pistol bullets through the bedroom
doors and frightening the inmates al
most to death. At other times he
would 60 riding about the country
like the wild horseman himself, jump
ing bitches and fences and squirting
his horse through places where no 9TH
Ell man would dare to go.
"Once," he himself says, 81 was rid
ing with my brother, he in advance.
Suddenly he heard crash-a frightful
crash. He turned, and, 10! it was my
head that had struck the ground. The
saddle was broken, but my head was
MT. On another occasion, while riding
through brushwood in forest, | lost
consciousness and lay three or four
hours before regained / t. When the
doctor examined my hurts he said it
was contrary to all professional rules
that had not broken my neck.
In view of his impetuous character

strange that when he asked for the
hand of Fraulein Jean Won Puttkamer
in marriage her parents blunty re-
fused him. He was still very young.
and they preferred to wait few years
to see ii he would abandon his reckless
habits. Bismarck, however, did not
propose to wait. Marry Fraulen Joan
he would, whether her parents were
willing or not. So he visited her ev-
cry day. taking no notice of her FAM
ily's rebuffs. He knew that she loved
him, and that sufficed. This state Of
things, however, did not last long.
"See here, Herr Won Puttkamer," ex-
claimed Bismarck one day, "why do
you refuse to let me have your daugh-
terp"
DcCduSc, lcTT Won DlSmdTCk, WAS
the reply, you are not tit to be any
woman's husband. You ride and fight
all day and drink and swear all night.
Your life is scandal to the country"
Bismarck looked at him in silence
for moment and then roarded QUIT
DonnerWeHer! Is that ALP But it is
absurd. Come, give her to me and
you will see me as steady and sedate
as a bishop. Come, swear It'll"
Sincerity was stamped on the young
, mans countenance and words and
Herr Won Puttkamer finally gave his
consent to the marriage, though not
without missgivings. Bismarck, how
ever, kept his word. He wrote to his
sister "All right" in English, to let her
know that his suit was at last success
full and he bought Bible. Wild rid
ing and all night drinking bouts had
no attractions for him any more. He
became sober and pious man and
tender and affectionate husband and
father.

A guild has been formed in London
for the purpose of propagating and
putting into practice its idea that
music has great mission before it in
the curing of certain diseases. The

Blackmann, who is the leading spirit
in the new departure, violins have the
highest therapeutic value, the harp
coming next, while tenors should sing
to female patients and sopranos to
males. 1t is suggested that DR.. Black
