How Two War Prisoners Escaped.
[Wdsliin1ton Post.l

Representative Charles Morgan, of Mis-
souri,, is very mild-mannered man, but has
O record for personal bravery which many
might envy. He was Union soldier from
Wisconsin, and fought in many of the great
est battles of the civil war. He was repeat
edly captured and made his escape from
Confederate prisons five times.
One of his escapes was extremely novel,
He and other prisoners were locked up in a
box-car, to be shipped back into the interior
of Virginia for confinement in one of the
Southern prison camps, of which he had ex-
perienced a foretaste on previous occasion.
A Confederate gsard was in the same car
with the prisoners, to prevent their escape,
and strict vigilance was kept upon every
movement. Morgan and a friend, neverthe-
less, managed to regain their liberty under
the very eyes of the sentinel. While lying
on their blankets they cut a hole through the
floor of the car with q knife, concealing the
aperture with their blankets until they had
produced an opening large enough to allow
their bodies to pass through. So quietly
was the work done that neither the guard
nor their fellow-prisoners surmised the
truth. AS soon as an opportunity presented
itself and the car was dark enough to con-
ceal their movements, they opened the
aperature and dropped through to the road
bed. They gained the adjoining woods and
were furnished with provisions by an old
negro couple. In the course of few days
they were again in the camp of Union
army.
The National tribune. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1877-1917, 1894-05-24

About o'clock that night a carriage drove
up to the door, and his wife sprang out and
let herself into the house with her latch key.
When she entered the room, her husband
never looked up, but she crossed to where he
sat and patted him gleefully on the back.
"Come, come, my poor infant. Cheer up!
she said.
Madax's only answer was groan of
anguish.
aAnd so your little $4,000 has gone with
the rest 2" she said.
"You told me l would double my money"
he said and I believed you."
"Of course you believed me, and here it
is" she said, taking check from her purse.
"There's my check for 100000, so you have
doubled your money"
"What do you mean by that ?" said her
husband, looking up.
"Mean? You poor child! I mean that I
am the head of the corner. 1t doesn't matter
now who knows it. That was the reason
that I had Sir Cesar and the others dining
with me. / had no idea that you were in on
the other side and when you told me that
you could get them to assist it seemed too
good to be true; for / did want that million.
Husbands are of some use, after all. Now,
my boy, yon take that check and go down to
Monte Carlo. / may be able to 90 after all
this work is over. am very much obliged
to you for the million you threw in my waz
and considsi "a cheap at e50,000. Draw on
me for all your expenses while you are at
Monte Carlo. l am sure you will find the
tables much less expensive than the London
wheat market. I am sorry that I can't
stay with yon, but am on for dinner in
the city. Those who were with me in the
wheat corner are giving me dinner to-
The National tribune. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1877-1917, 1894-05-24

night, and I am due there at o'clock. I am
sorry / can't wait to see the children. Give
them my love, and tell them l will run down
in few days and pay them visit-that is,
unless you take them with you to Monte
Carlo. 1t must be lovely down there Just
now. Well, ta-ta. Take care of yourself
and your check. 1 may see you at Monte
Carlo"
And with that she left the room and was
waving good-by from the carriage window,
as the dazed man stood watching her through
the open door, before be had quite realized
the situation.-IHe IdLer
