THE IRISH DRUMMER BOY.

Thrice up against their battery
We rushed to the attack,
And thrice with fearful slaughter
Our lines were driven back;
Once more our colonel marshsIed us,
Aud on we pushed again;
But torn and shattered, back recoiled.
With scarcely half our men.
A cry or terror thri]led the ranks,
And wavered the brigade;
Before their batteriug guns we stood
Pale, painting and dismayed
The last man of the color guard
His death-shot there hath found,
And close b de his battle flag :.
Lay torn upon the grous d.
Fast flashed the red arti lery
Our bleeding columns tn ouyh,
And thick and fast to ca. tn they fell,
Our gallant men in blue.
A shuddering thrill, an icy chill,
Through every bosom runs,
as faster fell the shot and shell
- From the Confederate guns
Twas then an I,ish drummer boy
TOO young for such scene)
Stepped proudly to The foremost ranks,
Dressed in his jacket green,
Aud snatched from earth the tattered flag
Tha. lay all cory there,
Regardless OF the kissing she'll
THAT hurled through the air.
Proudly before the foeman's guns
He waved the flag on high,
His face Lit up, his fearless soul
shone in his flashing eye,
The light Of heaven and martyrdom
Beamed in his glowing face,
AS it at once were Gel tired there
The fire of all his race.
f'shame on you boys! will you desert
The old flag to the foe:
Come on VINO shripks before his guns,
Or fears his rebel blow?
Charge for our flag again.
With fearless voice he said,
q moment more-and in his gGre
1'he drummer boy lay dead.
We beard him shout, we saw him fali,
The green flag in his hand,
We gazed upon his boyish face, -
80 fearless, proud and grand,
And from our ranks there burst yell
For blood, revenge, or death,
As If the internal fiend of hell
Had leaped upon the earth.
Up! 'gainst that blazing battery,
With dercely flashing blade.
IN frantic fury fercely sprung
Each man of the briga ..
No hum m force, NO human power,
Could turn that shoe X aside;
Deep. deep in blood our blades avenged
That little boy VIZ died,
Wrapped in his flag we buried him.
And DER his lonely grave ....
with saddened hearts oug whole brigade
farewell vol1ey gave;
The Drawer ne'er on field or plain,
From Foyle to Fontenoy, i.
Died for the free, more grand thar he
That Irish drummer-boy.

VANCOUVER, B. O., Nov. 26.-At the Westminster assizes today six. of the Indian crew of the sealing schooner, O. D. Rand, were found guilty of revolt and mutiny on the high seas. Just outside of Behring sea, in last seasons sealing cruise, the crew took posses sion of the vessel and remained in command nine days. The Indians out mum bered the white men three to one. At length the captain took advantage of favorable opportunity when only two were on deck and drove them
 into the held. where he shut them up till he reached Vancouver. For the
 defense it was claimed that the captain supplied them with whisky. gave them
 no food and was taking them to Cooper island, instead of to Behring sea as agreed upon; and the Indians, fearing

DONE WITH SLOT MACHINES.

What a Stranger Got for a Penny at an
 Elevated Road Station.
 At the Congress street elevated sta tion>at evening during rush man, evidently stranger, came along and halted in front of the machine which offers a stick of gum for one penny showed into the slot. This man, says q Chicago paper. carried an overcoat, a large valise and an umbrella. He evi- dently figured out in his mind that it would be good idea to take some gum home with him. So he took out pen ny, but held it for moment as if loath to part with it. He knew that the penny was good it was backed by a good government, but he appeared to be doubtful as to the quality of the gum.
 The throng of people jostled him and the train gong was sounded. Carefully he selected slot, and still more care fully did he insert the coin into the small opening. It went about three fourths of the way in and stuck. He grabbed hold of the machine and shook lo. lilC pChIy IC1hulhCNi 1doo' He put down his luggage, his coat and umbrella, took out new knife, opened a hawk blade and with it strove to re- cover his money.
 The people ran against him, swore at him, almost knocked him down. He broke the blade of his knife, and just then a man hurrying to catch train stumbled over the valise, got his foot hung in the armhole of the overcoat, plunged forward, kicked the valise open and smashed bottle of horse iniment.
 The man dropped his knife and ran after his valise, and when he gathered up the fragments of his baggage and his torn coat he returned to the slot machine to find that some one had stolen his knife. But he didn't swear. He simply said: And they call this civilization

DOG AND COYOTE.
The Hunted Wolf at Last Turns Upond
 the Hounds.

The Hunted Wolf at Last Turns Upon
 the Hounds.
 There were three of US in wagon driving from Sprirgdale, on the rail road, to Hunters Hot Springs. says the Ncrt!,yvcst Magazine. We had fordcd the slough that during the season of hiGh water in the Yellowstone cut off the approaches to the bridge-the water filling the wagon box and taking the horses almost off their feet at times in the swirl of the current. One of the dogs from the hotel joined us on terra frna-a mild-faced yellow cur with no fighting qualities. He was trotting along on the road few rods ahead of the horses when there came lop- ing across the open country a big coyote, making straight for him. Away went the dog and after him the wolf. The dog made stand and took a nip at the wolf; then the wolf ran and the dog pursued, but as soon as the dog had overtaken his enemy he changed his mind about attacking him and turned back. Now the wolf gained courage and took up the chase, running the yellow cur clear up to the porch of the hotel at the springs.
 The party in the team got good deal of ssun out of the novel, turn-about hunt. Mendenhall, the landlord. whipped up the team and we bounced along at tremendous pace, shouting: ''go it wolff and ''go it dog" The landlord yelled encouragement to Stub, the dog, but Stub had no mind for tussle with the sharp-toothed, long-nosed brute, and was happy to gain the shelter of the hotel. The coyote trotted off across the hills. What thiGgs fellow will see when he hasn't his gun with him." remarked one of the men in the wagon.

THE TERRITORIAL COUNT.

How the Will of the People Might
 Be Subverted.
 There might be 8 contingency in which the wrong man would be sent az a delegate to congress and another wrong man be authorized to sit as coun- cilman-st-large in the territorial legis- lature. According to law the secretary of the territory is directed to canvass the returns from the counties within forty days after the election and issue certificate of election upon the face of the returns.
 Dilatoriness upon the part of some of the counties might therefore put the wrong man in. Nearly three weeks have elapsed since the election and five counties have not yet been heard from at the secretary's office. One of these is Maricopa. The others are Gila, Va vapai, Mohave and Cochise. It happens though in this case that if the delin- quent counties were not heard from at all it would cut no figure in the general result

 neer.
 The interregnum of city surveyors in and for the city of Phenix is broken. The conditional acceptance of Engineer Dunn was made absolute at a special meeting of the city council last night and Councilman Lewis presented the name of W. A. Hancock. He was unanimously elected. Representatives of the newly organized Phoenix Light & Fuel company submitted bid for lighting the city. The bid proposes to furnish thirty arc lights at s7 each per month, cash. The terms were taken under consideration and will be acted upon at the next meeting. The company's predecessor. the Phoenix Light and Power company obtained the contract several months ago for furnish ing arc lights at the same rate. There was an indefniteness about the num- Der of them and the peremptorv mono syllable leash" encountered no part of the stationery on which the contract was written. The contract however, was never signed for the reason that the company was in hands of the principal bondholder, D. D. Mallory, who had no authorized representative here to sign it.
 The contract for laying the street crossings was approved.

CATARRH.

Catarrh is usually applied to @ peculiar dis order of the nostrIls and adjacent parts, while in fact it may attack every organ in the body, containing mucous membrane, CataTrh may then be said to be disease of the mucous membranes of the body. The most prominent feature however is a morbid discharge from the head, either by the nostrils or dropping into the throat At first there is almost 6 constant flow of clear aerid fluid, bat later on there is secreted an offensive, purulent, greenish or yellowish matter In others there is a tough viscid and offensive phlegm, which collects be- hind and above the soft palate and which ad hers with glueish tenacity.
 In some cas there is thick viscid, sllm7 secretion which coats over the mem brane Of the nasal cavities and then putrefes gIV1ng rise to 8 stench sufficiently fetid to poison the at mosphere of a whole room. In other cases all secretions are suspended causing an unpleasant feeling of dryness, heat and feverishness ill the head and nose g. condition known ss ''Dry Cat arrh." The disease speedily extends to the air cavities of the bones of the head and face and down past the nasal cavity into the throat, causing frequent attempts to clear the parts Of phlegm producing the sound ''hem,'' more or less forcibly. h this manner the dlhcuity spreads from organ to organ invading the throat, larynx. trachea and bronch al tubes un. til it finally reaches the lungs.
 Thus Catarrh becomes the starting point Of consumption development, the disease being eventually transmitted to the lungs, both by nervous connection and continuity of surface
 So frequently has this fatal course been mo- ticed that all those who are thoroughly conver sant with the subject now look upon Catarrh as 8 premonition and one of the very earliest manifestations of consumption. Every case of Catarrh is curable py our sy stem of practice.

A CARD FROM A. e. BAKER.

Our furniture business at Hawleyville is now SO we'll known, far and near, that we feel that we may safely, for time at least, cut down our advertising expenses. An Lad" to be of any value, should be changed every week. We are too busy to do it. Besides, we heard man say, the other day that "that furniture man at Hawieyville, who ad- vertises so much, must be a fool" Queer what big game one runs onto sometimes more charitable friend remarked to us conn- dentially, in an off hand way, that writing "ads" out of business hours is liable to lead to softening of the brain. Mind you, he did not say we had got 1t and he looked away over into the next county when he said 1t but,-well, we are not slow to take hint, If 1t is blind one. 1t would be perfectly aw- ful if we should really get it this softening disease, we mean, and have it get real deep- ly seated before we knew it, or before we had time to vaccinate. So we are going to stop right of short, give up our advertising col- umns for awhile, pocket the money that would otherwise go Into the coffers of these "grasping newspaper monopolies," eat brain ness, 1. Q. selling furniture at Hawleyville. Now for Heavens sake don't tell everybody what you think Just remember how sensi- tive we are to adverse criticism. and say that we are simply boycotting and playing Debs with the newspapers for awhile, Don't tell them that we are tired or waiting for any thing to harden. Be ompassionate, be just, be considerate, be charitable, be liberal mind cd one with another and last of all be sure and come to Hawleyvtlle before you buy your furniture. Please commit this last sentence to memory and then pin 1t in your hat.
