On the evening before a solar
eclipse not long ago the colonel of a
regiment Of German infantry sent for
all his sergeants and said to them:
"There will be an eclipse of the sun
tomorrow. The regiment will meet
on the parade ground in undress.
will come and explain the eclipse be-
fore the drill. If the day is cloudy
the men will meet in the drill shed as
usual" The sergeants thereupon
drew up the following order of the
day: Tomorrow morning, by order
of the colonel, there will be an eclipse
Of the sun The regiment will asse M
bic ON the parade ground, where the
colonel will come and superintend the
eclipse in person. If the day is cloudy
the eclipse will take place in the drill
shed. Youths Companion.

The Historical Record of the For
ty-third Light Infantry" that famous
regiment that played most promi-
nent part in the English warfare dur
ing the lastquarter of the eighteenth
century and the early part of the
nineteenth, contains stirring incident
of prompt action which averted
tragedy.
Worn out with hard marching the
brigade under Captain Lloyd APP
preached the convent at Benevente,
where the cavalry and reserve still
remained, hoping for shelter. They
were disappointed. The convent was
occupied by several thousand infantry
and the lower galleries were so densaly
packed with the horses of cavalry and
artillery that it was hardly possible
for man to make his way among
them.
Two Of the officers stood looking at
the dubious prospect through the sim
gle door that gave ingress and egress.
A sudden cry of alarm burst from the
lips of one. "Lools therer' he cried,
pointing over the backs of the horses.
At that moment one of the inside
wooden shutters burst into flame.
Mortified, the officers looked at the
burning shutter and realized the hope
lessness of the situation. 1t would be
impossible to get the 5000 men and
horses out, and they must stand by
and see their comrades perish miser-
ably. There was no water near, and
if there were, how get at the fire
through those densely crowded horsesP
The flames crept upward toward
the rafters. Good heavens! Some
thing must be DONE" cried Captain
Lloyd. And then, with motion to
those outside to be quiet, the brave
captain leaped on the back of the
nearest horse, and stepping from back
to back of the animals, ran to the
blazing shutter, tore it from its
hinges, and pitched it from the win
dow. Then he made his way back to
the door in the same way as before.
So quickly was the act perform ed
that even the horses were scarcely
disturbed. The building was saved
and there was no panic, which would
have been as disastrous as the flames.
The captains eyebrows and mustache
were scorched but that was all.
"And they'll grow again." he said
with laugh.

PTTTsBURG, May 2y.--As the Balti-
more and Ohio Express No. 8, west
bound, reached the sharp curve at Pine
Grove station, nine miles this side Of
Meyersdale, wreck occurred in which
two men " ere killed and one SO severely
injured that he will probably die. A
huge rock, weighing about 80 tons, had
been loosed from above on account OF
the heavy rains Of tho past week and
fell square across the tracks. Owing to
the sharp curve at the scene OF the acci-
dent. the engineer could notsee the OBJ
struction until Within few feet of it,
consequently the engine crashed into
the obstruction with terrific force,
completely demolishing engine and
tender and wrecking three baggage
cars. The engineer, William Nichol-
SON. was so badly crushed and burned
that all OF his remains to be found were
gathered up and placed in bucket.
William Fl. Reinhart, fireman, was
burned and scalded TO death. The
three express csrs caught lire and were
entirely consumed.
