the 14th H. Cav and doubtless our whole
command were adopts, we would have asked
no odds; but this was impossible Our line
of-battle was formed, Capron's Brigade in
the center, the 14th Ill. Cav the right OF
the brigade. Our two guns were planted
near the road, with the I'd battalion, under
Maj. Quigg, as battery guards. The rebel
TANKS far overlapped our slender line.
Our prospects indeed were gloomy. Our
men were run down with incessant march
ing, loss of sleep aid want of food. The
ardor and zeal of our men to release our
suffering comrades atAndersonyille was now
no greater than was the humble prospect
that soon we would share their fate. The
enemy made no advance, for he could we'll
afford to wait until his force in our rear
came up to close in upon us.
The 14th Ill. Cav. was sent forward and
made o vigorous charge upon the rebel
center, forcing it back, but only to meet the
charging mass of reinforcemehs of the
enemy. The batteries on each side opened
with great ferceness. Many other desper-
ate charges were made all along our lines.
Occasionally there was lull in the raging
battle storm.

Climbing the
Grand Canyon OF
The Yellowstone

The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone
is from 100 to 100 feet deep. A general
average is perhaps 1000 feet. At many
points the walls are absolutely vertical
and are embellished with gigantic fittings
and pinnacles. Architectural forms OF
great variety are seen. These combine
with the vivid coloring 10 form scene OK
beauty and grandeur.
Intsrspersed among the vertical declivi-
ties are smooth slopes, set at various
angles. Many of these can be climbed,
some with much difficulty, others with
moderate exertion Care must be exer-
cised as regards footing, but for good nuscus
lar exercise and lung development the feaa
is worth trying.
To stand in the bottom OF this huge
trench and gaze upward at the Philistinic
walls, touched with beauty by the hands Of
God; to watch the emerald stream rushing
through it's narrow prison in foamy rapids
and vertical leaps: to see the flashing OF the
sunlight athwart the walls, are well worth
the effort required to climb them.
There is no danger in the attempt II
care IS exercised The climb into and out
of this wonderful place where naught OF
life is seen, save the circling eagles far
overhead, is a profound experiences.
