wanted some Of that whisky. A
smooth.f faced, boyish young fellow
proposed plan. A crowd of his
companions in wickedness got
into the shanty and kept the
suller busy. Even that unusually
respectable parsonage, the orderly
sergeant, sat on the barrel and joked
and laughed in his loudest key. Into
the cellar under the shanty went a
few of the "boys" with camp ket
tie. The instigator of the plot had
an auger, and the orderly sergeant's
voice above told him where to locate
the cask. 1t was the work of few
moments to bore through the floor
and into the keg, and draw all the
precious fluid into the kettles. AS
the thieves sneaked back into the
quarters they could hear the other
folks quarreling with the sutler
about some mistake in Civ

hours later, when a darky brought a
flask from the colonel to be filled :,

A New story of General Grant.

A New story of General Grant.
In Blue and Grey for April (Phila
delphia) appears a letter from Mr.
Bryant S. Parker, formerly of a
South Carolina regiment, in which
he relates the follow ng incident,
characteristic of the great general s
quiet kindness of heart:
In one hard-fought battle in Vir.
GINA, in which my regiment lost
heavily in killed and wounded, |
was taken prisoner with a lot of
Others of our regiment. We were
placed under guard at the rear, and
all were searched. / had in my
pocketbook my Masonic demit.
Next morning the guard came and
told me that was wanted at Gen
eral Grants headquarters. thought
my time to die had surely come,
and that l would not see Sallie and
the children any more. l was sure
the general was going to have me
shot. was the only one of our
boys who was wanted at the
headquarters, and the guard told me
to move on. soon reached
the tent and was told to go inside.
! was frightened almost 10 death.
My teeth ratified, my knees shook,
and the perspiration was streaming
from my face, although the day was
cold. However, [ entered and the
tent was closed, and l was alone
with the commander.in chief of the
United States forces. He saw that
l was so frightened l could hardly
speak, and arising from his camp
stool, he shook hands with ME and
asked me to be seated. He was 80
kind and good that soon felt at
home. After talking pleasantly for
a while, he asked me to what
regiment l belonged snd where
my home was. He then
picked up my demit from
table, and asked if it was mine. |
replied that it was. He then asked
me if l was Maso9, and | soon
convinced him Of that He then
went to the table and wrote my
parole, gave ma some money, and
told me to go home to Sallie and
the children. The guard was called,
and with a hearty "good bye" l
departed from General Grants head
quarters the happiest man in the
army. General GRAFT was mighty
fine gentleman, whom l always re.

DKNvRR, Nov. Ex-Governor Waite has

chairman of the 'Populist state central
committee:
81 am informed that you feel badly over
the result. OF course q great deal of fault
Is found. Nobody knew that the old cow
would eat up grindstone.' 1t would BIO
angular indeed II there had been no fault
found with the management, but am
persuaded that Isothing was done by the
state central committee or by any Of the
candidates that could have changed the re-
suit. We may as well accept our defeat
philosophically. We have lost this fight,
but our cause is just, and therefore i'm
mortal.
''In an especial manner wish to i'm
press upon you my entire confidence In
your integrity. The stars in their courses
have fought against us, but freedoms
battle, bequeathed from sire to son, though
often lost, is ever won.'"

IMPORTANT BALLOT DECISION.
Supreme Courts Ruling on the Present
Method Of Voting.

A Supreme Courts Ruling on the Present
Method Of Voting.
LANSING, Mich, Nov. 9-The supreme
court has just handed down the most i'm
portant decision affecting the present
method Of voting that has ever been made
On the question Of what constitutes dds
tinguishing mark" on ballot, which
mark is prohibited by law, tile court
unanimously holds that any mark, what
ever, other than a single one appropriate
to the intention of a voter is a distinguish
Ing mark. The results Of this decision will
be far reaching.
The court holds that If two tickets on an
official ballot are identical the marking of
cross over each is Illegal also that to
mark cross over any ticket and then be-
fore each name on such ticket or placing n
cross before the name Of candidate and
then erasing the name of his opponent on
another ticket is illegal.
In substance the opinion holds that a
single Ia vote, and is sufficient to indi-
cate the voters intention, and that a
second might be agreed upon as means
of Identification. 1t has been the practice
Of election inspectors to count all such
doubly marked ballots SO that under this
decision any of the elections held under the
Australian voting system, it is believed
will be contested.
