Through the long hours of the night he
sat motionlcss 1t was 2 o'clock when sud
denly he caught sight of a moving object
on the plain, some distance away. Noise
lcssly he cooked his rifle. He was n doad
shot and woe be to that object when he
fred. Nearer and nearer it came, while
he sat rs If asleep.
"Why, it is Corporate he suddenly ex-
claimed to himself.
Corporal was fine, large Newfoundland
dog, tho pet of the garrison, who had mys-
teriously disappeared from the post two
weeks before, and whom every one sup
posed to have been stolen.
Rogers first impulse was to call the
dog, when he remembered his resolution
--"shoot any moving object that comes
within range"
He therefore restrained his impulse, and
no one could have guessed that the APP
parently sleeping sentinel was closely
watching every movement as the dog APP
preached.
1t was a lucky idea Of Rogers to feign
sleep, for as the dog came nearer he
thought he noticed something peculiar in
its appearance, and its actions did not seem
quito natural
Possibly Corporal may be exhausted
light of tho moon" thought Rogers.
The dog was now within close range,
and he could hesitate no longer.
1T is matter of life or death, " he re-
Elected, land if l make "a mistake every
one-even Corporal himself-will forgive
me-"
Slowly and impcrceptibly he brought his
rifle to his shoulder; short but true aim,
crack and yell such as only an
Apache who has received his death wound
can give-startled the whole garrison.
AS If by magic, every one collected on
the spot, each as he approached evidently
expecting to see repetition of the trag-
edics.
The story was soon told. The skin of
poor Corporal had been used as disguise
by the Apache, who, with bow In hand
had been creeping up on his third intend
ed victim Deceived by the apparently
sleeping sentinel, he had been led to be-
tray himself and had met a most merited
death.
Undoubtedly he had, by the same device,
deceived the other sentinels and had very
nearly succeeded in adding another scalp
to his belt.
Young Rogers was overwhelmed with
congratulations, a special report was ut
once made to the war Department. and be
fore long he received as a reward his mucl
coveted COMMISSIONS. C. W. Brooks, II

CURRENT LITERATURE.
The August Magazines.

WILL modern engineers stop at moth
ing in making and unmaking the face
of nature? There comes now " A Propo-
sition for an Artificial Isthmus," be-
tween Ireland and Scotland, which is
described in the August Popular Science
Monthly, by Ernest A. lie Sueur. This
land connection is designed, primarily,
not to afford easier communication but
as dam which shall enable the i'm
mense tidal power in the North Chan
mel to be utilized.
THE chief topic of editorial discus
sion in the Review of Reviews for Au-
gust is the recent railroad strike. The
motives of the dispute are candidly
considered, and the conclusion is
reached that the leaders of the Amer
lean Railway Union have done great
harm to the cause of organized labor,
besides inflicting untold injury on an
innocent public. AT the same time the
opinion is advanced that arbitration
would have been greatly to the advan-
tage, as well as credit, of the Pullman
Company.
THE subject of en- important and
timely symposium in the North Ameri-
can ReuieoC for August is 1.-THE Lesson
of the Recent Strikes" by four men es-
pecially competent to deal with the
question-General Nelson A. Miles,
who was in command of the federal
troops at Chicago during the recent
troubles; the Hon. Wade Hampton,
United States Commissioner of Rail-
roads; Harry P Robinson, editor Of the
RoilaDoy Age, and Samuel Gompers,
president of the American Federation
of Labor.
THE radical reduction in the price of
Romance, from twenty five to ten cents
a copy resulted Immediately in great
increase of its sales, four editions of the
July issue being required to meet the
demand. 1t is safe to predict still
larger sales of the August number, as
the public only needs to know of such
an opportunity to buy the best of
stories, ten of them, for dime, and it
is sure to improve it. Romance is is
sued by Romance Publishing Company,
Clinton Hall, Astor Place, New York,
aud is sent for ten cents.
THE last OF Frank Bolles's papers,

By way of contrast, there is paper on

The Loyal South.

The following was the concluding
paragraph of General Gordon's recent
speech in the United States senate, and
it is worth republishing just as he de-
livered it: I" stand here to proclaim,
not as a Southern man, but as an Amer
lean citizen, and l wish that my voice
could reach every law-breaker on the
continent, that the men who wore the
gray from 1861 to 1866, and who con-
fronted the stars and stripes in that
great conflict, may be found side by
side with the men who wore the other
uniform, following that same flag in
unfolding the dignity of the republic
over which ii floated, and every law
upon the statute books" This utter
ance was received with tremendous
outburst of applause, which started on
the floor, and spread over the senate
chamber into the galleries.

Lee Prevented a Duel.

CT heard General Mosby tell story
of a duel that came near being fought
by General Longstreet and General A.
p. Hill during the Virginia campaign"
said Colonel Edward Angler, great
admirer of Longstreet's valor. Mosby
says the colonel remarked, "the bat
tie of Gaines Mills was fought and won
almost exclusively by Longstreet's
Georgia soldiers. A paper published
in Richmond, called the Richmond ET-
aminer, printed very extensive de-
scription of the battle, but gave all the
credit to General A. P. Hill, who was
also in the fight. The paper gave the
Georgia general and the Georgia SOL
diers no praise at all. Longstreet's adj
jutant called his attention to it with
vehement protest. The men were all
angered that after winning such hard
fought battle they should be robbed of
their rightful claim to victory. Long
street ordered his adjutant to reply to it
officially in the same paper, which he
did. General Hill wrote to find out
who had stamped his account of the
battle as false, and Longstreet, some-
what provoked, wrote on the back of
Hills letter that he himself did it.
This, with the manner in which it was
given, caused Hill to send challenge
TO Longstreet, which Lees old war
horse was quick to accept. Everything
was being arranged for the fight when
General Lee heard of it, and rushed in
upon the scene and ordered Longstreet
to desist or he would send him from the
army Longstreet said he could not
withdraw his acceptance of the chal-
lenge until the challenge was with
drawn. By interference the challenge
was withdrawn and the duel declared
off. According to Mosby's account,
these two gallant leaders come very
near shooting each other. WaShtng-

OF course matter-of-fact people at Pit
hole and elsewhere in the region said
that The explosion that made consum-
ing fire and q pail of smoke of the
Homestead well would have occurred
just the same if the president had not
been assassinated, but they were few
compared with those who declared that
the coincidence was too startling and
appalling to have been other than a
visitation of the wrath of Providence
against Booth. And there are good
many hard-headed folks who hold to
that opinion still."-Ne,0 York Sun.

Was 1t Simply Coincidence!

81 may forget all of the numerous
remarkable and startling incidents that
were part of the pioneer development
of the Pennsylvania oil regions, and l
have forgotten many of them, but there
is one that is indelibly impressed upon
my mind, as it no doubt is on the minds
of every surviving participant in the
doines of those lively days." said one
of those old-timers. 1.-THE famous old
Homestead well, where oil was struck
in the early part of 1865, was the gusher
that started the rush to Pithole creek
and brought into existence in the will
derness city of 10000 inhabitants al
most as quickly as it could have been
done by the magic of Aladdin's lamp.
John Wilkes Booth was on visit to
the oil country about that time, looking
for investments, and he paid $4,000
for a one-thirteenth interest in the
Homestead well. Oil was selling for
S4 barrel then, and the Homestead
was gushing hundreds of barrels day.
When the news came in April that Lee
had surrendered, and that the war was
over, among the hundreds of flags that
were foated in Pithole as evidences of
the Joy that was felt over the great
event was one from the top of the der
rick at the Homestead well. When,
quickly following these glad tidings,
the terrible news was received of the
assassination of President Lincoln,
every one of these flags except one was
lowered to half-mast as mark of the
peoples mourning for the martyred
chief. That one flag was the one that
had been raised over the Homestead
we'll in rejoicing for the triumph of our
arms-the well of which the presidents
assassin was part owner. Why was
that flag uncovered? Because on the
evening of April IA, 1865, at the very
minute Booth fired his fatal shot at the
president, an explosion as of clap of
thunder shook Pithole city, and angry
flames instantly wrapped the Home
stead well from base TO summit. When
the sad news was received at Pithole
of the death of Lincoln, the town was
overhung with pail as black as night
from the smoke that rose from the ruins
of the well that had poured money into
the assassin's hands, money, no doubt,
which he used in laying out and per-
fecting his murderous plans. The flag
that had fioated from the derrick was

Courage on the Battle Field.

You can talk as you will about con-
slant bravery in battles, said an old
soldier, but man cannot tell at what
moment his courage may forsake him.
He may enter a battle with the greatest
enthusiasm and valor, but before much
fighting has taken place be running
like the worst coward. Courage is
something that cannot be counted upon.
1t will fail you sometimes when you
need it most. | witnessed an incident
during the war which well illustrated
this. There was captain leading his
company up steep hill. The rebels
were known to be coming up the other
side, and it was an important matter to
get to the top first. The captain was
brave fellow and did all in his power to
urge his men forward, giving them en-
couraging words. The position was
serious one, the men not knowing what
moment they would receive a volley
from the rebels from the top of the hill.
They kept well together under the en-
couragement of their gallant captain,
who, with sword in hand, was leading
them nobly on. AS they came near
the brow of the hill wavering could
W oSCli III liO ohu tiO SdPlhlh,
realizing that a retreat would be disas-
trous, took sterner methods. He cried
out in a loud voice: 1.-The first man
that turns his back I'll shoot down in
his tracks," With this threat be was
enabled to reach the top of the hill,
where he found the rebels also just ar
irving. Firing commenced, and almost
the first shot left its trail in the hair of
the gallant commander, parting it in
the middle. 1t did not injure him in
the least, but it killed his valor. This
brave fellow who had led his company
on that perilous ascent suddenly became
one of the worst towards. He threw
down his sword and ran to the rear as
fast as his feet could take him. Just
when he needed his courage most he
found it wanting. No one would say
that the man was anything but brave,
for his former war record and his con-
duct in subsequent battles demonstrated
that he was hero. But any one who
had seen him running to the rear that
day would have put him down for the
veriest coward.-Pittsburg Dispatch.

1t Interested the Old Soldiers.

Two or three incidents connected with
the great Pullman boycott deserve
more than a passing record. One was
that representative of the ex-confed-
crates of Chicago reported to Mayor
Hopkins that all of his former comrades
were ready to band themselves together
again and fight for the stars and stripes.
Another was that old General Joe
Shelby, whose appointment as United
States marshal for the district of Mis-
souri, was 80 much antagonized by
many democrats and republicans, too,
no doubt, declared that the president
and the national government should be
supported at all hazards, and even ran
counter to the expressed intention and
policy of Governor Stone of his state.
Another fact was-and this is Just as
inspiriting and good as either of the
others-that General Lew Wallace pro-
ceeded at his home in Charlottesville,
Ind, to organize militia companies to
be ready for the fray if it should come I;
that the brave old Union veterans of
New York city made efforts somewhat
similar to get together again in the old
ranks under the old leaders Gf they
were living) and prepare themselves
that it should be illustrated now and
then in this republic that it is not the
rutf-scuff who can do the fighting. No,
it is the thoroughbred American,
wherever he is found, whether in a
foundry, bank, or on farm, who has
the love of liberty, of right, and of JUS
tice bred into his bones, who will do the
fighting when it is required. A regi-
ment of slender, pale-faced clerks went
into the war from Boston to do some of
the bravest fighting in it, a regiment
of New York hoodlums went into the
war to turn their backs at the first scent
of danger. One runs across bravery in
the breast of the true American citi-
zen wherever he is found, high or low,
or whatever his situation may have
been. 1t is not always Drawn that
counts. But it is always brains, and
spirit, and patriotism. These are what
have counted in the nations crises,
and these would always count again.
