A Xnst Rnincd City

A party of scientists have recently
explored the ruins of the great city OF
Ancor, or Anger, situated in what are
now the almost inaccessible forests of
Cambo ia. These ruins were discov-
cred only short t me ago, COM
paratively, though rumors of the exist
ence of such a place have long been
current in the country. The ruins as
described would indicate that Ancor
must have been one of the largest
cities in the world, if not the largest.
Temples, palaces and editice Of vast
size IN fine state OF preservation lie
scattered over wide territory, inter
mingled with mounds and masses OF
crumbling stone and brick. Large
forest trees are growing upon the de.
bris and in the courts of palace and
temple. Little is known of the history Of
Ancor, though it is stated that it could
send forth million or more fighting
men. The portions of the walls still
standing are cyclopean, How it should
have fallen into such complete desue'
tude it is difficult to conjecture.

pleasant. Ulysses felt all the true i'm
pulse Of patriotism when student at
school. 1t was his conviction, born
nourished in his boys heart, that
his country was the equal of any other,
and that his countrymen were the
equals of the best of mankind"
Speaking of Washington, said his
Canadian cousin, one day, 1T seems to
me, Ulysses, you appear to think a
great deal of him."
"And why shouldn't To- quickly re-
piled the tanner boy; she is the father
of my country, and was raised up by
the Almighty to lead it to independ-
ence."
"All very fne," rotorted John; but
he was traitor to his king"
"a WHAT" asked Ulysses, raising
his voice.
Washington was traitor, Rebel "
continued the Canadian.
Cousin john" calmly replied Ulys-
es, Awould you like to have your SOW
ereign called hard names?'
why, no; | can't say | should"
well, then, let me tell you plainly,
that l will not allow you or any one to
insult the memory of Washington"
What are you going to do about
2" queried John with a sheer.
II shall resent it as l have q right
to do. You may take advantage Of
me; for you are older than am. My
mother has toldme not to quarrel with
my schoolmates; and L mean to mind
her, and shall not attack them on my
own account. But when Washington
is assailed, and especially by an Eng
lish boy, l shall defend the father of
our country. Cousin or no cousin, 1
nm ready to fight for Washington"
SO saying, Ulysses laid off his jacket,
and soon convinced the Canadian re-
viler that he was in earnest. Blow
quickly followed blow, until young
Grant was the victor. The false as
sertion of the elder boy was corrected,
and he compelled to admit that he had
done wrong. AS he would have defend
ed his own chief ruler, so he was forced
to acknowledge that Ulysses had done
right in not submitting to hear Wash
inston insulted.

Spolled the Meeting.

The Confederate General Cor don
was very pious man and never went
into battle without asking the Divine
assistance and favor. On the eve of
the battle of the Viii lerness he, with
others, held little prayer meeting, at
which privates and generals mingled
on level. Men prayed at such times,
when they knew the next few hours
would find more or less of them dead
or dying, without regard to the insig-
MIA of rank. Presently one Of the
common soldiers was called on to lead
in prayer" His piety was beyond
question, but his education was not up
to all requirements. On this occasion
he began: "Oh, Lord; thou knowest
we are about to engage in terrible
conflict, if you take proper view of
the subject" At this point his hear
ers lost their gravity, the prayer meet
ing was brought to sudden and in
glorious close, and the little audience
fought the battle of the Wilderness
with their eternal spirits giggling all
through.

they were fortunate enough to escape
death, At the last session of the New
York Legislature there was passed q
bill providing for the selection of a
site for soldiers home to which these
women, as well as the old soldiers,
may be admitted, and their last days
made days of comfort, free from care
and labor. A suitable site has been
offered and it is expected the forth
coming session of the Legislature will
consummate the excellent work thus
begun by making u liberal appropri-
alton for the erection of suitable build
ings and providing for the mainten-
ance of the institution.
An exchange describes n touching
scene not long ago Witnessed, which
illustrates the need, found in count
less number of cases, of homes for the
wives and mothers of the war as well
rs for the veterans themselves. An
old soldier was parting at the railway
station, on his way to Dayton, Ohio,
from the spouse whom he had married
long before the war. After bidding q
sorrowful and fearful good-by the vet.
eron was about to enter the train. He
hesitated, then turned to his gray
haired wife and said ave have been
married forty-fve years and we will
not separate now. Let us suffer to-
gether to the end" And the aged
couple trudged back to their cherries
home--not cheerless, however, so far
as love and loyalty could drive away
the shadows of care.
There is not a northern state in
which there are not aged women, i'm.
poverlshed through the war or whose
breadwinners were either killed or in,
capacitated in the service, and they
should no longer be neglected by the
states they sacrificed so much to pre-
serve. New York has set an example
which all other states may with honor
to themselves initiate, Chicago

The Colonel Excused Him.

AS a regiment was on the march to
Gettysburg, some of the soldiers
stepped out of the ranks and "confs-
Gated" a couple of geese, and one of
the drummers unheaded his instrument
and put the captured birds in the
drum. Shortly afterward the colonel
came along, and, noticing the boy
shrieked his usual drum-whacks, rode
up to him and said: "Why don't you
beat that drum" Colonel, said the
startled musician, Il want to speak to
you" The colonel drew still closer to
him, and, bending down his head, said
well, what have you to say?" The
drummer whispered: Colonel, I've
got couple of geese in here" The
colonel Strengthened up, and gravely
said: We'll, if you're sick and can't
play, you needn't" and then rode on.
The colonel had roast goose that night,

"Nyho Kicked Over the soup.'

When the Union forces captured
Fort Pillow large amount of shells
and fixed ammunition fell into their
possession. A son of Africa, who was
cooking for an officer, proceeded to
use two conical shells for fire dogs.
After getting his soup well under way
he needed more water, and went down
to the river, near By, to get some. AS
he was coming back one of the shells
exploded, sending his soup kettle fly
ing over his head far out in the father
of waters" Just then the African
made his appearance above the bank
and exclaimed: "Look here, white
trash, what for you done kicked ober

let. His home being near Selma, east
of Muncie. his remains were taken to
that county and buried at Sparrs
Cemetery. For thirty-two years his
remains have lain beneath the sod, but
his son Henry, who resides in Selma,
Ind, decided to have the body ex-
humed, according to the Chicago Her
aid, and taken to Selma Cemetery and
placed it beside the Colonel's wife.
Saturday the coffin was taken up
and, through curiosity, the lid was
lifted from the top. What the wit.
nesses saw was startling, Instead OF
the crumbled bones they beheld a per-
feet image of the deceased. His body
was In perfect state of preservation,
and the features Of his face were un.
changed. Old men who babe him
good-by when he left for the battle
field where he met his death, and had
not been told whose remains they
were, recognized his features. His
uniform was also perfect. His shout
der straps and the brass buttons on the
coat were slightly furnished
1t was very heartrending scene
when the children again beheld their
father. They almost feared to have
the other glass lid lifted, thinking that
the remains would crumble to dust, as
is generally the case, but when the lid
was lifted the body remained as it was.
The body was inferred again in the
Selma Cemetery, but not until hun
dreds of Colonel Williams old friends
and old soldiers who had fought under
him viewed the remains.

Death Of Samuel Moore.


| Platteyille Witness: Samuel
Moore died at the home Of his daugh-
ter, l.. Mccain, in Denver, Colorado,
on Saturday, June Is, 1895.
Mr.. Moore was born near Mt. ver-
non, Ind, Nov. 10, 1914. He came to
Platteyille in the spring of 1884, and
opened a blacksmith shop, which he
conducted for seven years, when he
gagged in the mercantile business, in
which he continued until 1860. In
the meantime he built a linseed oil
| mill and fibre works which contin-
ued in operation several years. In
| 1872 he was elected county treasurer,
and being reelected he held the Of
flee four years. In 1867 he, in com
pany with the late Hammer Robbins,
became interested in building rail-
road from Calamine to Platteville,
and the next three years he spent all
his time in pushing that enterprise
to a successful termination. In 1880,
having enlarged and re-modeled his
hotel, the Gates House, he took pos
session, and for number Of years
served the public as landlord. His
wife dying in the spring of 1892, he
shortly afterward sold his hotel prop
erty and went to Denver and made
his home with his daughter, where
he continued to reside until his death,
He had been in falling health for
more than 4 year and his demise was
not unexpected, although 1t was
no doubt fastened by fall which he
received about ten days before he
died, He attempted to get out Of
bed alone, but being too weak, he fell
and fractured his hip joint.
He was the oldest member of Mel
ody Lodge, No. 2, A. f. NJ, and was
one of the charter members of the
Grand Masonic Lodge Of the State
OF Wisconsin. a short time before
his departure for Colorado, and while
a, II. iAOuHtfBt anu i'tO4 ielA NOttbo
were still living, the Grand lodge
presented to each of them a beauti-
full medal in token Of its regard for
them and in recognition Of the fact
that they were the three oldest living
members of the Grand Lodge. They
have now all gone hence to join the
innumerable host in the Grand Lodge
above.
The body arrived in Platteyille
over the G. NJ. d st. T.. Ry., accom-
panied by his grandson, Harry Me-
earn. 1t was met at the depot by u
