CURRENT COMMENT

That anyone should have the effrontery
to question the integrity Of Hon. Henry
Gage is explainable only on the pessi-
mistic line of reasoning lately brought
into prominence by DR.. Max Nordau. for
the questioner must be of the decadent
school. Mr.. Gage is a type of the highest
American character, both in ability and
honor. 1t is sufficient to say that the
letters upon which the absurd story was
founded were composed largely by aid
and in the presence of the highest coun-
ty officials, and were in the line of pro-
noting the ends of justice.
The honorable mentor they are all
honorable men-who compose the city
government. are much disconnected about
the question of veracity between Street
superintendent Howard and Council an
Kingery. the latter asserting that the
former offered him 500 to vote for the
purchase of certain lot the former deny
ing the Doodle charge. Mr.. Howard, if
be made the offer, showed poor judgment
in offering an honest man 500 when
there are others.
Charles W. Stoddart, another poet and
traveller, and now professor of English lit
erature in the Catholic university of
America at Washington, D. c., is taking
a few months vacation on the Pacific
coast. He is accompanied by his lnti-
mate friend, Joseph Strong, the well.
known artist. 1t is to be hoped that
these two well-known men will look over
Southern California as we'll as the north.
Two men in bicycling costumes were
refused permission TO dine at summer

thought that knicker bockers might offend
the lady guests. That's rich. How long
since the Minnesota women have been
afraid of knickerbockers? If such thing
as this happens to men in knickerbockers
up there whai treatment would a woman
in bloomers receive?

gRs Disrosar Citizen.

This incident happened in the
Shenandoah Valley in 1862 and 50.
A number Of Union prisoners cap
tured in the battle of Antietam and
in skirmishes preceding it, among
whom were some of Coles Cavalry,
were being marched on foot down the
then hot and dusty valley towards
Richmond. In the yard Of fine res
idence between New Market and Har-
risonburg was a we'll with p1mp in
it. When the prisoners came to this
place, they begged the guard to per-
NIT them to halt and get water. which
petition the guard were kind enough
to grant. The proprietor of the
premises, a g~ap headed man. appear
ed on the scene and declared that no
''in.efnal Yankees should have
water out of rs we'll, and was ex-
ceedipgly de.nonstrative in his wrath
toward the prisoners. The Confeder-
ate guard made him stand back, de-
claring that the prisoners should then
and there have water, as they might
themselves be prisoners some day and
need similar kindness. One Of Cole S
men. looking the old man In the eyes,
said, "Old mani am prisoner now.
but don't expect always 10 be one.
and l will try to see you again some
day"
In the following spring an exchange
of prisoners was made, and amorg
them was the man who made the pre-
ceding remark. In the summer OF
1868 a body of cavalry was marching
up the valley to whose commander
had been given knowledge of the
civilian, and by the very soldier who
had threatened him. The commander
merely remarked. I'm FIX him. I"

made all along the line that whoever
wanted water should dismonnt and
procure it there. A file Of men were
sent into the house to arrest the pro-
prietor and bring him out to the
pump. They found and brought him
and he was compelled to pump water
until all who wanted were satisfied
Before that point was reached, how
ever, his strength gave out and he
was excused from pumping. but not
