The Breokiuridge Family.

It remains but TO add a leaf from a truly
remarkable family history TO emphasize
the greatness Of this ruin. The original
American Breckenridge was a Scotch Gov
enanter who fed from Great Britain dur
ing the bloody persecution under Charles
II. The family he founded soon became
famous In Virginia. His grandson, James,
won fame as "a soldier with General Greene
and became federal congressman, repre-
senting the Botetourt district. He helped
establish the University Of Virginia and
promoted the Chesapeake and Ohio canal.
His brother John was elected TO the legs-
ature at ID and later 10 congress, went to
Kentucky in 1893 and founded the famous
family at Lexington II is pretty clearly
proved that lac drafted the famous resolu-
tions Of f9s, and he was afterward United
States senator and attorney general. His
son John became famous clergyman and
Presbyterian polemic. while another son,
Robert J., became still more famous as
writer orator and divine. In short, he was
the Henry Ward Beecher Of the south. lie
presided over the national Republican con-
in the Confederate army, and that son Is
the defendant in this case.
The son Of the Rev. John Breckenridge
became vice president Of the United States
and general i'm the Confederate army, and
his son Clifton is the already famous CON
gresham from Arkansas. For 100 years
has this family been producing orators,
statesm n, soldiers, iurists and great cler-
gymen and the end of the line is in this

TURF PHILOSOPHY.

It is difference of opinion that makes
horse races.
Never attempt a thing with young
horse and fail.
There is little choice between bad
stallion and bad mare.
A little extra rubbing before selling
will put dollars in your pockets.
Too much speed too early in the season
often means none at all at the close.
Too great anxiety for speed is the most
frequent cause Of knocking out" the
youngsters.
Give the PAGER a chance to show him
self, and he will do the rest without much
outside aid.
Whatever you undertake in teaching
or subduing young horse plan thor
oughly and carry it out.
Be kind, but firm, and from the first
teach the pupil that submission is neces-
sary and will be enforced.
Horses may not be as intelligent as
human beings, but they possess enough
intelligence to know when they are, so
to speak, on top.
Intelligence never hurt anything. 1t
Is an element the supply of which is
sadly deficient in man, horses or cattle.
As this is added to either, value In

Of a horses feet is of value, because If
the feet hurt the animal is not only in
agony, but cannot do near the service

Too Cautious.

The father of Gueau de Reverseaux had
been distinguished LAWYER, and through
his influence he held important offices IN
der the government When the revolution
began, he gave up his offre at La Rochelle
and retired to Charities.
From the time that therevolution began
Gueau de Reverseaux devoted his atten-
ton exclusively to preserving his own safe
ty. He wrote no letters he would receive
no letters; he saw no visitors and paid no
visits; he spoke to no person and allowed
no one to come near him. 1t would have
been impossible to be more prudent than
he was.
However, be wanted some sheds built
on his farm near Chartras and ventured to
consult carpenter. The carpenter told
him that he could not undertake the work
Immediately, as Gueap de Reverseaux
wished, because rncst ofhis workmen were
drafted to join the army at once.
Gueau de Reverseaax replied: tThe
workmen need not go They can send sub
stitutes."
This remark was heard by the work
men, but only the first phrase made any
impression on them. They reported every
where that M. Gueau de Reverseaux, who
must be good authority had said that they
need not go. The news went to headquar-
ters that Gueau de Hverseaux declared
that the drafted worknen need not obey
the government. Thiswas considered to
be conspiracy, and he was condemned to
death. He was at once taken to the Con-
ciergerie prison, and he paid for his selfish
folly with his life.-Ymth's Companion.

A SpoOk ON tI,a Car.

The messenger on express car No. 5 on
the run between Reno and Ogden had
rather a queer experience. When the train
was passing Iron Point, in the eastern
part of the state, he heard a voice calling
him by his given name, asking, ''What
was done with the corpse?'' He was at
once as though glued to the car floor, and
the package of letters he was sorting out
dropped from his hands.
Not human being was in the car but
the messenger, and in a moment or two
he recovered from his establishment enough
to think that some one had Struggled into
the car at the last station and began NOV
ing the trunks to find the concealed indi-
vidual. He was busy moving the trunks
when, in the same voice, he heard some
one say, ooh, you might hunt till dooms-
day, but you could never discover the rnys-
FERROUS individual who is addressing you. .
The messengers hair was now standing
on end, and he was unable to even carry
his own weight, much less anything else.
The trip was made from Iron Point to Re

Major Gould's History of the 1st, 10th and
Goth Regiments.

Mr.. Edward Morse, of Salem, Mass,
about work well known to Maine vet
Grams: In 1871 there appeared from the
press of Stephen Berry, Portland, Me.
a history of the LIST, 10th and 10Th Maine
regiment by Maj. John M. Gould, now
cashier of the Traders National Bank,
Portland. This work of 700 pages was a
regimental history, published at the ex-
pense of the author, and it is doubtful if
he has yet received what the undertake
ing cost him, but he has had the pro-
found satisfaction OF knowing that his
work forms one of the model regimental
histories of the. war
The New York Nation in it's review of
the book at the time, in defining the
various kinds of regimental historians
sid: Maj. Gould is one of the only
class who can write on such a subject
what will be worth the printing OF the
reading" In the same review it also said
Ibis account of his regiments fight in
the battle of Antietam is for a page or
two one of the best of its kind that we
have ever read. Kingslake in his Grim
can War tried to paint, as if from life,
just such a scene of close combat, but
with great elaboration and refining his
effort was cold and artificial by the side
of the simple and truthful narrative be-
fore u.s."
Maj Gould's book grew out of faith
full, painstaking journal of that long
war, and hence the high character and
vaiuv of the work. Nearly quarter of
century has elapsed since it's publication.
and yet the author has been busy clear
ing up doubtful points. He has revisited
the scenes of his campaigns in the Shen-
andoah valley, and has been in constant
correspondence with officers both federal
and confederate, to ascertain the actual
truth regarding matters it was impossi-
BILE TO determine at the time.
Precisely what troops his regiment OPP
posed at Antietam has entailed Il most
voluminous mass of correspondence, and
now he has just issued a pamphlet of
eight pages, in which corrections and
names and dates and the clearing up of
obscure points, are for the first time
presented. By those who possess the
work this addenda should certainly be
secured, and may be upon application
to it's author.

UNION MUTUAL
LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
OF
PORTLAND, MAINE.

At this festive season of the year,
season at which each man vies With
his neighbor in the making of some gift
to the members of his immediate family
and friends, it is peculiarly fitting, that
the UNIQUE advantages of Life Insur.
ance should be kept in view. The ten
dency of the age is to be PRACTICAL,
and it is therefore worthy of note by
those who contemplate making holiday
presents, that nothing can exceed for
beneficence and solidity Life Policy
which will in the event of the death Of
the bread-winner protect the Home and
afford nurture and sustenace to the
bereaved, be they old or young. 1t does
not require any very vivid fight of
imagination to comprehend the rossibili-
ties of fifty-fold return consequent up
on an outlay for the acquisition of Life
Insurance; whereas, q similar outlay up
on something more pleasing to the eye
and possibly of perishable or breakable
nature could not afford the solid and
lasting benefit to be obtained by and
through policy in the Union Mutual.
