the act constitutional. Upon the point
raised by attorneys for the old board
that Gov. Holcomb did not attend the
meeting of Churchill and Russell at the
time the new board was named, the
court holds that the interests OLA state
Or municipality are not to be jeopardized
by the action of one party.
In conclusion the court finds that
Broatch, Vandervoort and Foster are the
lawfully constituted board of fire and
police commissioners of Omaha.
The A. 2. A. police commission has
discharged Chief of Police White and
replaced ex- Sergt. Sigwart as acting
chief. Sigwart was discharged several
months ago for alleged incompetent
cy. Other men who were discharged
for alleged incompetency have been
placed on the force, notably ex-Chief
Detective Haze, who is made sergeant.
Martin J. White was chief of the G.
M. & st. p. railway police for many
years and is we'll known in Milwaukee,
He was taken to Omaha in the hopes
that with new head the police depart
ment could be divorced from political
and other dissensions and put on a civil
service basis, but the new law, the cons
stitutionality of which has been upheld,

A WILD NIGHT RIDE.

Observation-Disclosures Experience of Some
of the 10th Mich.-A Southerner's Trick.
EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: My regi-
mept lay at McMinnvile, Tenn, six
months during the Fall, Winter, and Spring
of 1s63-'64. The only railroad reaching the
place was little spur about 40 miles in
length from Tullahoma. The frequent raids
through that region by both blue and gray
had reduced its various bridges to heaps of
ashes and twisted iron, derailed its cars and
dismantled it's engines. The men of Co. X,
whose Captain was my honored old father,
had replaced one of the bridges nearest the
town, and the men of Co. ID, in which there
was an expert locomotive engineer, got the
old engine up out of the ditch and put her
into running order. Two or three box cars
were also righted up, placed upon their
tracks, and fitted up as travelling stockades,
with loop-holes for muskets.
In this way we opened communications
with the outer world, and one morning a
party of us started out with an armed guard
for Tullahoma. The old scrap-heap of an
engine stopping occasionally to have screw
turned up, or nut adjusted, wen. wheel
ing, groaning, and putting along.

engine steamed up waiting the return trip.
OF the ride he will say in advance that
though he has since been connected more
or less with railroads and their operation
never has he had so wild ride as on
that night through country infested by
gentlemen adverse to our occupancy. II
must have been about 9 o'clock at night
when we left TullahOna. And such night!
A perfect torrent of rain was falling, and
it was TOO dark to see each other aa
we cr0uched low in the tender, expect
ing we knew not what every minute. We
had no headlight, and our onward way was
Lighted only by an occasional glare of light
ming.
We fairly few over those rusty old rails,
which had been so long without the track
mans care! Would we get safely through
Would the equity old engine cling to the
track? Would the guerrillas, knowing she
went down in the morning, be on the look
out for our return at night? Terrible was
the suspense. Did they now hear the rum
bic and rattle of our wheels, and were they
waiting for us down there in the darkness,
with rail out OF the track, wedge in q
frog or tie dashed across the rails?
On, on, oni Who ever rode go fast be-
fore? Ever and again the engineer gave
the rusty old throttle another jerk outward,
and the rheumatic old machine would take
even faster pace. Those Of us Tho had sell
dom if ever given thought to what the flu
ture had in store for Us, now had serious
reflections; and lips that had not for long
spoken much else than idle words found
themselves framing whispered appeals to a
higher, stronger something for help and pro-
lection.
Whether that had anything to do with
our safe passage or not we could not then
say. All that we knew was that the run
was over, and that no harm had befallen us.
1t was not very long, however, we presume,
till the jokes and jesis came back, and pray
ers were left unsaid till other times of need
and peril called them mp to the lips.-M. b.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE. This regi-

| short distance from Cincinnati in August
and September. 1851, to serve three years; ;
was splendidly mounted and equipped !;
was mustered out July TO- 1858, at Nash
vile, Tenn. The original members, except
veterans, were mustered out during Septem-
Der and October, 1864, after the battle of
Stone River. Capt. Eli Long, of the 4th
u. 8. Cav, now Major-General, retired, q
very distinguished officer, who was beloved
by all the rank and file of the regiment,
was commissioned Colonel of volunteers
and placed in command of the regiment.
Being a military man and n thorough officer,
it was not long before the regiment was mp
to the standard of Regular cavalry. The
material was there, and from that time it
was known as the 4th Ohio Regulars.
At Louisville, KY, in the latter part of
1861 it was attached to Maj.-Gen. o. M.
MitchePs Division of Buells Army. The
regiment went out with John Kenneth, of
Cincinnati, as its Colonel, who afterwards
was in command Of division of cavalry
at the battle of Stone River. The regiment
was in the battles of Bowling Green, Nash
willie, Huntsville, Decatur, Athens, Bridge
port, Stone River, and Tullahoma. At the
Dattie OF Chickamauga 1t sustained heavy
loss of officers and men. Lieut.. Dick Netf
was killed. Capt. g. Cilley was wounded and
taken prisoner. He was afterwards COM
missioned in the Regular Army and as
signed to the 1st U. s. Cav. He was for a
number of years stationed on the Pacific
Coast. At Selma, Ala, April 2, 1865, the
charge made by the 4th Ohio Gavin other
words, the 4th Ohio Regulars-was brilliant

or 600 yards, leaped stockade five feet
high, q ditch five feet deep and Is wide, and
parapet six feet to eight feet high, against
the best brigade of Forests command, over

field guns were playing upon them. In the
charge the gallant Lieut-Col. George w.
DObbs, in command, was killed, and Maj
Gen. Eli Long was badly wounded In the
death of Col. Dobbs the regiment suffered
great loss. This regiment was in all the
battles of the Atlanta campaign. Over 100
