At the battle of Molino del Rey Lieu
tenant Morris of my regiment was severely
wounded. In those days we seldom had
stretchers or parties for removing the
wounded from the field. and on this oeca-
sion we didn't even have a blanket. As
Morris was anxious to be conveyed out of
the severe fire stalTaTt, jolly Irishman
was asked If be could take the disabled
officer on his back. He said probably he
could and We lifted Morris 10 his stout
shoulders. The officers arms were still
strong enough to clasp tenaciously around
the priVate's neck. just behind US the
ground divided TO little ravine that fur

backward steps, facing the enemy and put

Sailors Greek TO save the army trains, put
their respective commands in position for
that purpose and utilized every moment to
hurredly throw uD some slight embank-
ments. Our rear guard command came
up and marched on by, leaving EweIl and
Anderson without any artillery. They
fully understood that their one and only
chance was that the Federals might charge
precipitately without waiting the play of the
batteries, and In this contest they felt they
could hold their ground. In vain is the
net spread in sight of the bird" The pur-
suing Federals were too willy and wary,
flushed as they were in following a foe
that reluctantly retreated. The Union
batteries coming up the infantry soon
halted, while the heavy guns felt of our
position and soon disclosed or exposed our
men without any artillery. Without COM

1t is a delicate, difficult and apparently
an invidious task for man who has served
through three wars in active and pro-
longed military life to particularize what
he regards as the ''bravest deed" during
such periods; and it is not intended that
what is related is the "braYest" In such
an extended service and experience, cover
ing years of my life, numerous instances
of marked daring and valor were wilt

gray, all showing that the Americans.
North and South, are the most martial
nation on the face of the globe; and it is
hoped that in the fast and furious race for
wealth we will not allow the era of selfish
ness to overshad0w the epoch of hero
ism. Recitals Of such bravest deeds
are perhaps usually confined to act

A unique house is being built in Paris
for a private gentleman. There will be no
staircase in ii, and yet IL will be house
several stories high. This sounds like a
paradox, but il is explained in this way:
The street in which it is being built is the
Rue Muller. which has a steep gradient.
A large frontage has been secured, ex-
tending to the Rue Lamarack. As the
ground rises the level of the floor rises,
and there are five gradations. equivalent to
five stories. II is in this way that visitors
