bone. making, there was a premature
union of the two paTietal bones along
the sagittal suture, thus causing the
brain to push the vault of the skull up
and back, giving it the peculiar oblong
shape so often noted. Had the defect
in bone making extended to the other
sutures, Scott inevitably would have
been microcephalous idiot. But,
asks Rev. DIR. Munger, il the brain had
not been forced to overcome this bone
defect, would it not have been larger
and its convolutions more numerous?

inflammation has been so severe and

HE RODE DOWN IN FRONT OF US,

cavalry we all felt sure, and when we
got up courage to look behind us and
see them, we almost died from JOY at
seeing Sheridan. He kept the pike I'M
til he was past his last man.
Notwithstanding there was a confed-
crate battery just coming into position
in front of us, he turned to the right
and rode in front of us to the right on
TO small hill that was crowned with
few oak trees. His orderly, with head
quarters streamer, was nearly mile
behind him, and came to him on the
hill The next officer was about the
same distance behind the orderly, and
the rest came on shortly after; but
Rienzi and his rider were one
AS soon as the orderly with the
headquarters colors came up to Sheri-
dan the battery commenced TO shell
him; still he stayed there, and our
cheering turned to praying He rode
down in front of us, with a six-gun
rifle battery firing at him and him only,
and, with his hat in his hand, he said:
That's right, old Nineteenth corps;
stay by me to-day and we will whip
them like blazes yet, and you may sleep
on your old campground tonight
Then he rode to the rear; and, as he
entered the woods, one genial Brother
Jonathan said:
There's men praying for that little
Irishman that hain't prayed before for
twenty years"
Then orders were obeyed, aud we
saw him leading Rienzi through the
woods in the heat of the battle without
a body-guard, and when an aid would
come he was at once dispatched with
an order to some general along the
line; but the last one OF us was his
body-guard, and he knew it-John P.

A STORY OF CHlcKAMAuoA.
The Soldiers Secret. which Was Hide a
Thirty Years In the Heart of m Tree

The Soldiers Secret, which Was Hidden
Thirty Years In the Heart OF Tree.
Thirty years ago a soldier in the bat
tie of Chickamauga sought hiding
place 1t was not for himself that he
wanted protection. Shells were
shrieking. The boom of the cannon
and the rattle of the musketry were al
most continuous Sulphurous smoke
was so dense in the glades that. look
ing upward, one could not see the tops
of the tall pines. In such surround
ings the soldier thought not of his own
safety. He sought a place which
would conceal his chief treasure
something that, whatever night hap
pen to him, he hoped might not come
into another's possession. Near the
bottom of one Of the large forest trees
solid shot had torn gaping wound
Into that, as far as il would go, the
soldier tucked his precious property.
Some time before the battle ended a
shell dropped into the top of the big
tree and exploded. The effect was ter
rife Branches were torn from their
sockets, the trunk was riven, the foil
age was blasted. After the shock ma
ture did all that was possible to mend
the damage Nourished from the
roots the lower part of the tree recov-
cred from its wounds The outer wood
and back closed over the crevice which
the soldier had used for this safe de
post. But the ruin wrought in the
top was beyond power of restoration
The tree grew at the base and slowly
died at the top.
A couple of months ago Gen. Stew
art, of the Chickamauga commission,
in going about the field came To this
tree. lie saw that the struggle Of ma
ture against the mutilation had ended
in defeat The tree was dead. In
little while, If left alone. it would fall
from decay. The workmen put their
axes to the roots and down came the
useless trunk AS it struck the ground
it parted. The crevice so long closed
opened Out dropped the soldiers
treasure one of the old-fashioned da-
guerreotypes. The picture is that of
lady of uncertain age. 1t shows the
evidence Of careful preparation to be
taken. The dress is adjusted care
fully, and the hair is pressed down
upon the sides Of she forehead, the
hands are folded on the lap, and the
features are composed in that unnatur-
al way which was considered the proper
thing for sittings in those days. st

Why Wheat Il Low.

Is it any wonder the price of a
bushel of wheat is two cents less
than the price of a dozen eggs, when
the railways charge more for trans
portation than the cost Of produce
ton? Third class wheat in San
Francisco market is quoted at 49
cents bushel, while here the farm
ers receive Is cents a bushel for
wheat that is a grade better than
the article quoted at the metropolis.
Eighteen cents to the producer 81
cents to the hoggish railroad cor
porations for carrying the product
to markell For each trainload the
railroads receive ABOUT $4,000 and
the farmer gets about 81 900. This
is q sample of the boasted Republi-
can protection-protect the corpor-
atoms and let tho people whistle.
If any farmer or laboring man or
business man who can read, will
vote the Republican ticket on No
vember 9Th and express by his bal
lot his approval of this system OF
highway robbery, he deserves to be
duped and we have no mercy for
him. Be reasonable, thinking peo-
pie; read and study and become

ciples Of the Peoples party.-Mos-

The Philadelphia Press, the lead

the hostility of the party to free

that silver men do the party ! SER

Political Notes.

The Canyon County Argus d.
says: 'Mr. C. w. Cooper, the pop
ulist nominee for state treasurer, re-
turned Wednesday from southeast
ern Idaho. Mr.. Cooper is very
hopeful and feels sure that the pop
ulists will get a large proportion OF
the Mormon vote.
The republican or back plute
press of this state, with one or two
exceptions, has always been low,
vile and abusive. There appears
to be no idea of moral responsible
ity with the plutocratic Hessians,
who sell their papers to the corpor-
atoms, trusts and would-be masters,
until their own utterances are
hurled back at them multiplied.
Then the ours run to cover and
whine. There is nest of Republi-
can scoundrels in Boise who ought
to be cleaned out by the grand jury
of Ada county. This is the gang
that writes those syndicate letters
for such papers as the Wardner
News, Ceur d'Alene Press, Moscow
Mirror, Lewiston Teller and Grange
Vile Gold Miner of North Idaho,
and it is the same gang who pre-
pared the pamphlet recently dis
tributed in the Ceur d'Alenes en-
titled "Populist," an anonymous
publication reeking with lies, OBJ
scenity and incendiarism. The
men were low enough who manu-
featured this pamphlet as an anon
ymous Republican campaign docu-
ment, but how much lower in the
moral scale of humanity are those
Republicans, who, with a hyena-like
smile on their faces, distribute such
assassinating literature?-Murray

Caldwell Tribune: The drug
store of Adam & Smithson and
the butcher shop of Picard, Rob-
erts & Mckenzie. were broken into
by burglars last Monday night.
An entrance to the drug store was
gained by cutting a hole in the back
door large enough to reach in and
turn the key which was in the lock
on the inside. The cash drawer
was pried off and several other
drawers ransacked and left open
but nothing of any value was taken
with the exception of a meerschaum
pipe, worth FIVE dollars. In their
haste they overlooked $500 which
was left in the store that night.
The wire screen on the back win
dow of the butcher shop was torn
off and as the window was open it
took them but a few seconds to
gain admittance. They broke open
the money drawer but all that it
contained was some small change
amounting to two or three dollars.

where there are so many interests
involved. What the effect will be

of speculation and considerable d.

be beneficial to the general public
