MISPLACED Orders.

During the civil war volunteer Of
ficers, new TO soldering, uttered many
orders not in true military form, though
perhaps not the less effective on that
account The following stories are
related Of Maj. Moody, Of the Twenty
seventh Michigan Regiment: Tie had
been vessel captain on Lake Superior,
and not unnaturailv some Of his old
lingo came to his tongue now nd then
in moments Of keen excitement. Once,
while his company was in line of battle
behind some protection, some of the
men exposed themselves rccklcssly In
spite Of his repeated orders. At last he
lost his patience entirely, and rushing
in front Of his company shouted:
Boys, bear hand ana keep down
or, by Jupiter, I'll send every mother s
son Of YOU aft.
On another occasion, while advancing
in line of battle in the Wilderness
under heavy ire, he was So anxious
to keep his alignment that he forgot his
tactics and his military phrases, and
went back to his native element, and he
was heard all along the line giving hie
commands:
"Iuff, boys, luf-steady, steady-lutf,
luft-there, steady-now give 'em every
shot in the locker"

squire Walters Dog Made a Record, but
Lost His Life with 1t.
Squire Nation Walters has the rep
utation of being one of the oldest
hunters throughout this part of the
country, saws a Winamac, Ind, dis
patch, and was formerly always accom-
panied by his dog Pink Mink. Along
in the latter part of the winter of 1898
he started out one early morning to
hunt in the marshes that adjoin his
farm upon the sand hills. The Squire
had a splendid streak Of luck and his
game bag was soon filled with wild
game that fell under his steady aim and
shot with the assistance of his dog. As
the sun slowly disappeared in the west
the Squire started home, but his dog
was missing. The Squire now tells the
story of how he found his dog. He says:
~ few days ago ! was down on that
patch of grubs figuring if it would pay
to clean them out. | found bis skeleton
standing with his right fore foot in the
