He Fiddled While Undergoing tho Loss
of a Leg.
A hundred years ago the unfortunate
people who come into the hands of
the surgeons. generally soldiers or
sailors who had been hurt in action,
were forced to undergo the operations
necessary to the prolongation of life
without taking ether or chi Oroforn, as
is now administered to make the pa
tient unconscious, and so free from
pain attendant upon the operation.
To secure quiet often the subject had
to be bound by ropes, SO that much as
he might desire to vince he was utter
" unable to do SO. Occasionally pa
tude ut the crisis Of their trouble. but
none ever showed more than a soldier,
who. on the morning after the battle
of Yorktown October 10. 15SD, was
brought into the hospital. having been
shot in the knee 1t was found neces-
sary to amputate the limb, and the
surgeon ordered the nurses to bind the
man fast preparatory to the operation.
Never protested the soldier. You
may tear my heart from my breast. but
you shall not bind me. Can you get me
a fiddle?"
His request was complied With, and
he proceeded to time the instrument,
after which he said: $50. doctor, now
you can begin" And he played during
the whole of the operation, which last
ed forty minutes, without uttering a
single false note or disturbing his fea-
lures in the slightest.-Harper's Young

She was q pretty country girl, rustic
but sweet and innocent as flower.
He was an artist from the city, and a
poet, and he loved the rustic maiden.
1t is so sweet to love in the pristine
prettiness of the provinces.
He had found it so. and this soft
night in September. when the moon
was touching the earth and the air
with its silver fingers. he had chosen
to tell his love and claim the heart he
felt was throbbing in unison with his
own.
AS she sat by him there in the gloam-
ing, with the soft brcezes making harp
strings of her golden hair. there was a
tender music in his heart he had never
known before.
Dear one" he murmured as he held
her hand tightly in his, II love you;
love you with all the energy of my pas
s;onate nature, and, here. this night,

nestled her head on his manly bosom.

oro...Rxamination Of Women.

South Carolina has voted TO have a
constitutional convention. and Governor
Evans. in his inaugural address. de-
livered Tuesday, suggested that the con-
yention should make provision for the
speedy trial OF men accused OF outrageous
assaults upon women.
The Governor thinks that speedy trials
Of the accused and protection OF the wo-
men-victims from some OF the horrors
Of cross-examination win prevent the peo-
pie from taking the law into their own

Annexation in Richmond and Norfolk.

Annexation In Richmond and Norfolk.
II the scheme. now being agitated at
Norfolk should succeed, and Norfolk ana
Portsmouth. Berkeley, and other sub
urbs be merged into one corporation. We
are not sure but that Norfolk would be
entitled TO rank as the first city In Vir-
GINA; that is to say. unless Richmond
were allowed to pursue the same policy
with reference to Manchester and the
suburbs Of the two cities.
II Richmond and Manchester and their
suburbs should agree to unite under the
name OF Richmond. we would continue to
maintain our position, and would prooa-
bly, have by the census of 1900 popula-
ton Of at least 125.0o0. Our present popu-
lation is about $500 or 5000, while that
of Manchester Is about 1900. And VIII
lagos lie thick about both cities.
For some months past the Dispatch has
been advocating the annexation of Man.
chester and the suburbs OF both cities.
Really this ought to have been done be-
fore the census of 1890 was taken; 1t
surely ought to be done before that Of
1900 Is taken.
Unless we adept this measure Of de-
fence. we shall find In 1900 that we have
dropped long way down on the list;
lost our rank, and fallen below nu-
merous cities Of this country which cant
torch" us In clearinghouse transactions
and property returned for taxation, or in
general business.
But, independent Of desire to maintain
our proper position In the list of Ameri-
can cities. there are scores of reasons
why 1t would be better for Richmond
and Manchester to unite rather than con-
tinue 10 maintain two separate govern.
ments.
If we are not sleepy-headed and old
fe gyish beyond belief, we ought to ac-
cemplish annexation by 1900. and should
celebrate the establishment of Greater
Richmond by an Interstate exposition.

The Ten-Dollar Note Limit.

Mr. Carlisle's banking and currency
scheme has one feature which seems
10 have escaped general attention ana
caused but little discussion. We ailude
10 the recommendation that no bank
note shall be of less denomination than
ten dollars. This recommendation WILL
we predict, find few supporters IN Con-
eress. The object Of the Secretary is' OF
course. 20 compel the use Of silver as
currency: but all the same this Is
recommendation to which the public WILL
we think, generally object. The hve-
dollar notes are the most teryiceapie
notes now in circulation. II zone were
10 be had under the existing laws, Con-
gress would doubtless proceed at cnee 10
provide for a good many millions OF dol
lars of them. The various devices to
which the Post-Office Department mas
had 10 resort In order to provide small
sums Of money to be sent through the
mails testify that the public cannot. even
do without one and two-dollar notes.
These last are also indispensable.
II Is worthy of remark, too, that an
other proposition which has been sup
posed 10 have good many friends finds
no place in Mr.. Carlisle's scheme. We
allude to the proposition 10 secure de-
posltors in such a manner as that there
shall be no more danger of loss TO them
hereafter than there has been heretofore
OF loss on the part Of the note-holders.
Such law. IL successful. would put an
end to paLics. 1t is supposed. by its adj
vocates.
The cid Jacksonian doctrine. as we
have had occasion 10 say heretofore. was
nat the banks should be divorced from
me government.
We published yesterday Mr.. Dooley's
practical remarks on Mr.. Cariisle's
scheme However. Senator Brice. of Ohio
says that Mr.. carllsle's scheme is vision

with Mr.. Dooley on this point
