A HISTORICAL MYTH.
The Story of General Jackson's Cotton Bale
Breastworks Pleasing Fiction.


There are few of the schoolboys of
several generations preceding the pres
ent who do not remember being taught
that General Jackson won the battle OF
New Orleans by throwing up a breast
work of cotton bales and meeting the
British assault behind them.
A dramatic account of this was in all
the school histories and several others,
and the novelty of the affair appealed
vividly to the imagination. The cold
facts of later history prove this all to
have been fiction. Henry Adams, in his
history Of Madison s administration, de-
scribes the battle of New Orleans and
mentions no such feature. McMaster,
in his latest volume, refers to the story
in note only to say that there were two
or three cotton bales used in one place,
and they were either set on fire or
knocked out at once.
Jackson's line of breastworks was of
earth irregularly thrown up and Of vary
ing height along its length. The trained
sharpshooters of the west did great work
as marksmen behind it and so CALLED
the heavily laden British troops that they
had no alternative but to be shot or re-
treat before the American line.
The sahoolbook story used to be that
the Americans lost six killed and seven
wounded. McMaster places the figures
Of killed and wounded at 70. The Brit
ish, it seems, were not all repulsed ac-
cording to the popular story. The right
line of the American troops was driven
in, and the British left advanced mile
in the rear Of jackson on the way to
New Orleans.
He was really fanked by this success,
but the terrific slaughter he inflicted up
on the British in the center, involving
the death of the first and second generals
in command, completely dispirited them
and induced the return of that wing of
their army that was on the way to the
city. Boston Herald.

Cardinal Di RentIe.

Speculation on his successor by the
pope himself is humorous and interest,"
ing. Leo XIII smilingly told some car
dinals recently that Cardinal Di Rende.
archbishop of Benevento, would be the
next wearer of the tiara. On being ask
ed why he thought SO, Joachim Pecoi
looked round slyly at the cardinals and
said: Because he is the youngest. The
mortality among aged members of the
sacred college is SO great. i" Cardinal Di
Rende is one of the pope s favorites. He
speaks English perfectly and was for
some time attached to church in tbe
Marylebone road, London, and a pro-
fessor at the Westminster diocesan semi
nary of st. Edmund's, Ware. He was
afterward nuncio in Paris. He belongs
to the Odescalchi family. The mention
OF his name by Leo XIII makes him ton

Initiative and Referendum.


The more that one considers the
+ Swiss elective method known as the
referendum, the greater must ap-
pear its value as an instrument of
political reform. 1t means that all
of the more important measures of
legislation, before becoming law,
shall be referred to popular vote,
for approval or rejection-in other
words, it puts the veto power, not
in the possibly erring hands of
President, or Governor, or mayor,
but directly in the hands of the
citizens. This would give death
blow to the nefarious lobby, through
which today interested wealth
manages to corrupt, and other
kinds Of undue influence to over
awe the representative government
of the people. This it is today in
this country puts the reins of gov
ernment practically into the hands
OF plutocracy in it's various forms
of organized greed, showing the
mass of people contemptuously and
defantly aside as ofno consequence.
eve have got the money!" cries
the railroad or the bank or other
corporation after a valuable priv
ilege, $50 what are you going to do

through" the agent of gas COM
pany was recently reported as de-
claring to an editor to whom he
handed thousand dollars for the
silence of his paper pending an
effort to secure a public contract at
highly profitable prices. The ref
erendum would put an end to all
that by submitting such measures
to review by the people. 1t would
also put stop to similar corrupt
actions in state and national
legislation.
The Initiative enables the people
to initiate, or begin legislation, al

put in proper form and pass upon,
and if enacted, in certain instances

Lincoln and the Highwayman,

The following is story of Abraham
Lincoln which, if it is not true-as it
probably is not-is at least entitled to a
place in legendary literature; Lincoln
was once riding along a lonely road
when an i'll looking man, who held a
cooked revolver, suddenly faced him.
"What do you want, my friend?"
Lincoln asked.
81 am going to shoot you," answered
tho man.
"Well," said Lincoln, 81 don't mind
being killed, but should like to know
your reasons.
81 once vowed" said the man, "that
if I ever met man homelier than I am
would shoot him. "
Lincoln looked critically at his assail-
ant for a minute and then said:
"Well, if l am any homeier than you
are, then for PHYS sake shootr'

A STOLEN SECRET,
How Minister Jewell Learned to Make
Russia Leather.

Jewell, like all men brought up to
learn trade, and who afterward gained
prominence in affairs, made now and
then unconscious revelations of his early
training During one of the campaigns
in which he was engaged he found him
self at a country hotel where the table
was bounteous, but the rooms few and
small. twas necessary in order that the
whole party might be housed for each
bed to be occupied by two persons The
governors roommate was young poll
tician, who could not hide his surprise
when the governor just before retiring
rolled the sleeves Of his night shirt even
as far up as his shoulders, and then
bathed his arms in cold water
"You wonder why do this" said
the governor. "Well, couldn't sleep
unless did. When was youngster
learning the tanners trade, I used to
have my arms in the vats all day long,
and at night my skin would smart as
though I had been stung by nettles. I
could not bear to have any cloth touch
them. So 1 got the habit of rolling my
shirt sleeves as far as could, and thus
I have slept ever since
When Jewell was minister to Russia,
he played a Yankee trick upon the Rus
slams, the benefits of which we are reap
ing even to this day in this country.
Like every other American tanner, he
had long wanted to know the secret Of
the process of manufacturing Russian
leather. He had experimental with a
few dollars himself, only to learn that
the secret was not to be discovered.
When at the court of st. Petersburg,
he professed great interest in Russian
industries and was shown through many
of the manufactures there By and by
there came an opportunity to go through
factory where Russia leather was man
ufactrued. Jewell was all smiles and
courtesies and seemed profoundly inter-
ested in those things which really did
not interest him and wholly blind to the
very things he went to that place to
see But he was not so blind as they
thought. When he came out of that fac
tory, he had discovered, as he believed.
the process, and he brought the discov-
cry back to this country with him, SO
that by and by the United States began
to turn out a very good article of leather
resembling the Russian product. Phil

ShylOck'S Plan.

The "sound money"-which is
simply the gold ring-party are at
it hard to subsidize the country
press. They are buying up all the
''independent' daily and weak
democrat daily newspapers of the
cities, (the republican papers all
being gold bug,) and are offering
tempting inducements to the coun-
try press to go over to them.
Hundreds of their tracts and PAM
phlets are offered to such news
papers free of cost for distribution,
and "broadside" supplements to be
folded into the country papers,
''free gratis for nothing" if the
