Two Regiments in a Wild scram-
bic to Reach a Pass.

III February, 1862. Gen. F. W. Lander
was placed in command of the army of
the Shenandoah to protect the Balti-
more u Ohio railway. BY keeping his
mel constantly moving with CELEBRITY
equal to that OF "StOnewalP' jackson
himself. he was able to outwit his willy
antagonist III the first battle. Decoying
jackson north over the crests of the
Blue Ridge to the little village of Ruck-
erStown, Lander gained march on him.
However, before he was irreparably
ruined. Jackson smelled rat and came
racing back to the valley at the top of
MS speed. Our troops were also outside
the valley, several days march south of
Jackson's, though both forces were az
about the same distance from Blooming
Gap.
Back we came at Our best speed, and
AFTER marching continuously for almost
thirty hours we sighted the gap only to
learn that jackson was but few miles
distant. AS last resource one of our
cavalry regiments was sent forward to
hold the gap, perchance, till we came
up. In an hour or SO we struck some
rising ground and far to the right saw
the rebels; but what was our surprise to
see skirmishing party stretching out
from their force also. Totally unsus-
picio4s of each other, 1t now became
Deck-and-neck race between the two
regiments. Who should reach the gap
first?
Presently they are in sight of each
other, and the mutual recognition spurs
each trooper on to more. strenuous
efforts. s.a

from our sturdy Vermouters, and the
rebels have lost slightly.

Now they are In the hills, appearing
and disappearing continually over the
broken ground. Now they have the
pass, and face about and form lust in
time to meet the rebels rushing up.
Back 20 the rebels with dozen empty
saddles; and. as the gap is narrow, our
boys hold it until we arrive exhausted
but eager for the fray. At night Jack

with seventeen officers and sixty men

yet, to tell. In two weeks our brave

The Management and the
Class B Men Get Into a
Squabble.
RACES ARE CALLED OFF
Because the Class B Men Re-
fuse to Race With a
Time Limit.

The second International annual bicy-
Gle meet, being held in this city under
the Minneapolis Cycle Track associa-
ton, broke up in large-sized squabble
between the Glass 3 men and the man
agement, yesterday afternoon, over the
attempt of the referee to set time
limit of 7:15 at first and later of 7:25 on
the three-mile lap race, in which the
"B" men were about to appear. The
"B" men had been trying to string the
managers of the meet. and their work
had not been satisfactory, and it was
this which led TO the placing of the
limit. They protested, and with some
reason, at the action of the referee,
but to 10 effect. and then went
to their quarters. though they were
warned that if they did not return to
the track within five minutes, the event
would be called off. They did not come
back, and, amid much dissatisfaction,
the judges announced the next contest.
This was the mile consolation, and the
men at first refused to ride unless the
Class B race should be first run, but
pear, and the event was brought Off
This was the last race of the afternoon
as the Class B men would not come out
for the mile open. In which they were
