Quantrel1s FINAL acts and Death.
After the slaughter at Baxter
Springs the pursuit Of Quantrell
became so hot and was so earnestly
maintained that to escape capture
he relinquished his leadership and
his band split up into independent
squads led by his various lieuten-
ants. While these scattered bands
carried on the desultory warfare in
which their leader had made them
adopts, Quantrell himself lived
quitely in Howard county, Missouri,
working on farm. Toward the
close Of 1864 he gathered about him
some 80 of the most daring and
desperate of his old followers.
These he mounted on strong, swift
horses, and armed eacs with four
10 six revoivers of che best make.
Then he joined the command of
Gen. Sterling Price, and when the
latter reiterated from his Missouri
campaign in the fall of 1864, Guam
trell and his party went with the
army. Price crossed the Arkansas

q brave soldier. soon gave Quan-
treII to understand that he preferred
that the guerrilla and his party
should quit the army. Quantrell
quickly acted upon this hint, aud
cutting loose from Price, campaign
ed for time in Southern Arkansas
and Eastern Texas. None OF the
Confederate commanders would
recognize him and he finally moved
eastward across Arkansas.
He now resolved to make his way
to Kentucky, and from there to
Maryland. where, as he afterward
stated, be intended to surrender
with Lee or again engage in guer-
rilIa warfare. lie dressed his men
in the Federal uniforms stolen from
the bodies of the Union soldiers at
Baxter Springs, and successfully
eluding the Union posts in Arkan-
sas, reached the Mississippi in safe
ty. After trying various points, he
finally effected the passage Of the
river, Is miles above Memphis, on
New Years Day, 1865. Once
within the Federal lines, Quantrell
represented himself as a Federal
!, officer on special scouting duty, and
drew rations and supplies at the
several Union posts through which
he passed. His band crossed Ten
nessee into Kentucky, and passed
through Big Greek, Covington,
Paris and other places on their way
to the mountains of Southwestern
Kentucky. Stopping one night at
a country hotel, Qaantrell. after
supper, saw his men to bed and
ordered them not to leave their
rooms unless he called for them.
However, some of them disobeyed
this order and went to the barroom
for whisky. Here they fell in with
a group of Federal officers. Guer-
rillas aud soldiers drank deeply and
finally fell to quarreling. Pistols
were drawn, ard in the fight that
followed several of the officers were
shot dead. This untimely encoun-
ter served to reveal the identity of
Quantrell and his men, and the
guerrilla leader saw that their only
safety lay in fight.
The guerrillas hastily mounted
their horses, and, by hard riding.
eluded the pursuing enemy and
reached the mountains. But Fed
eral cavalry under Major Bridge
water and Captain Terrell drove
them from one hiding-place to
another, and the forces of the latter
finally brought them to bay on May
10, 1865, near Taylorsyilie, Ky.
Here Quantrell made his last stand
and fought his last fight. Two of
his followers were killed and one
wounded the rest escaped, scatter
ing in all directions, and in the
end, making their way back to Mis-
souri,, as best they could.
Quantrell himself was MORALLY
wounded. He was shot through
the shoulder blade, the ball striking
his spine and paralyzing him. Two
days after the fight he was taken to
the United States military prison
hospital, in Louisville, where he
died on June 6. He was buried in
st. Johns Cemetery, Louisville,
and when they went to dress him
for the grave, they found so marks
on his body made by bullets and
sabres. In his final moments his
better nature returned and the last
words, it is said, that fell from his
lips as they grew cold in death,
were the name of his mother.

The serious illness of the Emperor
of Russia continues to alarm the whole
of Europe. 1t is extremely difficult TO
get any correct news of the true condi-
tion of his Imperial Majesty, as only
the most meager daily bulletins are
issued. However, there is no disguis-
ing the fact that the Car is very sick
indeed. There is already any amount
of speculation on what effect the En-
peror's death will have on European
politics, aud the fluctuations of the
money markets can be directly traced
to this source. In the bourses of all
Europe Saturday and in every center
of finance On the globe there was moro
or less uneasiness anent the reports
that came from st. Petersburg that
the Car was dead. True, the report
were no sooner in circulation than
they were denied, but denials from a
source where suppression and mystery
are the rule do not reassure entirely.
And just such news has been expected
from st. Petersburg, has been expect
ed for many weeks.

A number Of our great and most in
veterate tobacco smokers and chewer5
have quit the use of tho filthy weed.
The talismanic article that does the
work is no-to-bac. Tho reform was
started by Aaron Gerber, who was a
confirmed slave for many years to the
of tobacco. he tried the use
Of no-to-bac, and to his great
surprise and delight it cured
him. Hon. - w. Ashcom, who had
been smoking for sixty years,
tried no-to-bac and it cured him.
Col. Samuel Stoutener, who would eat
up tobacco like a COW eats hay, tried
this wonderful rem edy, and even Sam

Grand Duke Nicholas is the heir APP

thought to be more than likely that he

complications which might involve the

long such accusations were made that
Howgate was forced to give up his
position. An Investigation was made
and it was found that Howgats had
pursued systematic course of forgery,
larceny and embezzlement and that his
populations reached the large sum of
$4,000. On one of the numerous
