TIE SWEETEST SOUND.

The sweetest sound I ever heard
Was not The song of any bird;
1t was the fierce and awful note
That issued from a lannon's throat
June's blazing sun saw Sherman draw
lis deadly lines round KeneSaw,
With sure approach his earthworks crept
o er felos by iron missiles swept.
In fierce assaults the soldiers fought,
With patierce in the trenches wrought.
One day it was my fate to be
In a command of cavalry
Who, in bold advance. were met
By greater numbers, and beset
On front and flank, till brought to bay,
With ranks thinned by the bloody fray,
No Valor cCuld suffice to stay
The madly charging hosts in gray.
Cur only hope was to retire,
d. Girt by our carbines' ring of fire,
Maintaining the unequal fight,
II, haply, desperation might,
IN re-enforcements came, or night
help came. and with q ringing shout
We stood to fight the battle out,
Though yet the issue was In doubt
Timely the aid, but scant; our strait
Might stil be counted desperate
Behind us was a wide morasS
That, under IRE, we could not pass.
Unless a victory was won
Or DOOM was death or Anderson.
Loud from the fierce gray lines arose
The rebel yen. we saw them close
For the assault; then burst the flame
From all oUr guns as on they came,
They paused not for the leaden hail:
] saw my comrades cheeks grow pale.
Then Ger our heads there shrieked a shell
That seemed all Kissing hot from hell.
Amidst the charging foe it sped,
Leaving q, track of MANNED and dead
run voiced our battery now awoke
IN tones of glee its thunder spoke;
Our louu hurrahS rang glad and free
For life and hope and victory.
Thus was it that cannon's roar
Made music such as ne'er before
My ears had heard, or vet shall hear
Untl, in some celestial sphere
/ listen TO the songs that rise
From anger bands in paradise

THE r1cHnouRNB CLAIMANT.

The reported discovery of the real
Tichborne heir in an insane asylum in
New South Wales may open a new
chapter in one of the strangest stories
of modern life. This lunatic is an old
figure in the case, the claimant" con-
tending that he is Arthur Orion, though
the name he has borne for twenty years
IN the asylum is William Cresswell.
ThI-new alleged discovery is that Cress-
well is Sir Roger Tichborne, escaped
from the shipwreck in 1854, from which
date his being alive is a matter of eX-
trenle doubt. The claimant served his
sentence of fourteen years for perjury.
and now makes his living in England
by appearing at country music halls
and serving as an attraction at public
houses In the suburbs of London. His
trial cost the English government over
$780, 900 and the Tichborne estate $780,
900, and the revenues Of the estate have
declined in consequence from SIZE, 900 to
$45, 900 a year. The present young
baronet is son of Sir Alfred Tichborne.
younger brother of Sir Roger. BY royal
license the family name has been
doubled into observation-disclosures. Globe
Democrat.

A VETERAN EDITOR RETIREs.
John Adams Baker, 80 Years with

John Adams Baker, 90 Years With
the "Perry County Freeman"
From the Philadelphia Tfmes.l
The two veteran editors of Pennsylva-
mia who have devoted more than half a
century to unremiInting labors on a. single
newspaper are Theodore Schoch, editor
of the Stroudsburg Jeffersonian, ana
John Adams Baker, editor of the Perry
County Freeman. Both were Wings in
the old issues between the Wings and
the Democrats; both have published Re-
publican organs since the advent of the
Republican party, and both founded their
newspapers in counties which cast an
overwhelming vote against their political
faith. When Mr.. Schoch became the edi-
tor and publisher of the Stroudsburg JEFF
ferSonian the Democratic vote OF Monroe
county was more than four to one
against the Wings. The vote for Harri-
was publishing his paper and advocating
the election of the Wing candidate was
345 for Harrison and /, AT for Van Buren,.
1t must be remembered that that was in
the great Wing tide of 1910, when "Tippe-
canoe and Tyler. too" carried the county
by a sweeping revolution. Thus witch less
than $50 Wing voters in the county Mr.
Schoch founded his Wing organ and has
maintained it for fully fifty-five years.
He stands today as the oldest continuous
publisher of one newspaper in Pennsyl-
Vania.
Next ito Mr. Schoch, John Adams Ba-
ker is the oldest editor of the state in
continuous service upon any one journal.

FIFTY BLooMER GIRLS.
They Have Conc IN For Radical
Dress Reform EN- Masse.

Dress Reform En- Masse.
The bicycle has been one of the most
potent aids of dress reform. Thousands
of women now ride their wheels in
divided skirts, boomers and CATERS
that reach to the knee, and in eNw
York and Brooklyn the bloomer girl is
so often seen pedaling her bicycle along
the streets and in the parks that she no
longer attracts special attention. With
such an opening wedge in evidence, the
news that fifty San Francisco women
have promised to wear a, reform COS
tune when the weather is stormy and
wet does not cause the surprise it
would have caused a. year or Two ago.
The San Francisco dress reform suit is
designed solely for wet weather, when
Skirts conventional hose and shoes
afford very unsatisfactory protection
against the rain. The costume has a.
cutaway jacket that resembles the pop
ular outing Jacket, a short skirt and
dark wool boomers that reach to the
knees. Below the knees are rubber
leggings. and the boots are supplied
with ordinary rubber sandals. An AL
pine hat serves as ineadgear, and there
are collars, cuffs and q, very nlannish
w'aistcoat that has a satin back and
straps and buckles to tighten it. There
are two rows of gilt buttons and small
pockets for money and a watch.
The Jacket has revers, pockets,
gauntlet-like cuffs Of the dark wool,
and the front opens without any sign
Of fastening over the waistcoat. The
vest also has rolling revers and Is cut

the length in inches may be regulated
according to the taste of the wearer.
The popular skirt, however, seems one
that reaches about two inches below
the knee. Under the skirt and we'll
concealed from view are the revolu-
tionary boomers, which are Of a de-
cijedlv baggy character. They are held
in at the waist and knees by rubber
bands.

SLANG WORDS AND PHRASES.
Something of the Origin of ssDun,''
ssYou Are 81 Daisy

lyon Are 81 Da1Sy.
s'Dun' is a word whose meaning is now
known to every one who. understands the
English language. About the beginning
of the century, a constable in England
named John Dun became celebrated as a
first-class collector of bad accounts
When others would fail to collect a. bad
debt Dun would be sure to get 1T out of
the debtor. 1t soon passed into a. cur
rent phrase that when a person owed
money and did not pay when asked, he
would have to be "Dunned.'' Hence it
soon became common in such cases to
say: You will have to dun So-and-So if
you wish to collect your money
!, Un1l the nomination of Franklin Pierce
Tor the presidency, the word outsider
was unknown. The committee on ere
dentialS came to make its report and
could not get into the hall because of the
crowd OF people who were not members
of the convention. The chairman of the
convention asked if the chairman was
ready TO report, and the chairman of the
committee answered: yes. Mr.. Chair
man, but the committee is. unable to get
inside on account of the crowd and pres
sure OF the outsiders" The newspaper
reporters took up the word and used it,
:, You are a daisy is used by Dickens
in David Copperfield,'' in the sense of
calling a person a daisy in a way to ex-
press admiral ion and at the same time
says to young Copperfield: David, my
daisy, you are SO innocent of the world
Let me call you my daisy, as 1T is so re-
fres;hing to find one in these corrupt days
dear Copperfeld, the daisies of the field
are not fresher than YOU

exander FL. Stephens. of Georgia, in the
