Mr.. Goss, in his "Recollections Of a

federate about two famous leaders

said of Stonewall jackson; III you

When asked whether he had ever seen
gen, Lee, he replied; yes, was a
sortyof orderly for Uncle Robert for
awhile. He's a mighty calmllke man

There was a Texas Teller one time
who had struggled from his brigade,

"What did Magruder do?" asked a
Yankee listener.
DO? Why, he saw them chicken

arm under his coat-tail, pulled his hat
over his eyes and walked out And
that Texas boss didn't leave anything

HOW BLUE AND GRAY BLEND.

" Oh, mother. what do they mean by blue'
And what do they mean By gray"
Iheard from the lips ofa child
As she bounded in from her play.
The mothers eyes were allied with tears;
She turned to her darling fair,
And smoothed away from the sunny brow
The treasure OF golden hair
(" Why, mothers eyes are blue, my sweet,
And grandpa's hair Is gray,
And the love we bear our darling child
Grows stronger every day"
E" But what did they mean'" maintained the
child,
For saw two cripples to-day,
And one OF them said he had fought for the
blue
The other had fought TOR the gray.
The one Of the blue had lost leg,
And the other had but one arm,
And both seemed worn and weary and sad
Yet their greeting was kind and warm.
Abilene weekly reflector. [volume] (Abilene, Kan.) 1888-1935, 1895-08-22

They told Of battles In days gone by,
TIL 1t made my blood run chill
The leg was lost in the Wilderness fight
And the arm on Malvern hill.
" They sat on the stone by the farmyard gute
And talked for an hour or more,
Till their eyes grew bright and their hearts
seemed warm
With fighting their battles DER
And parted at last with friendly grasp,
In kindly, brotherly way,
Each asking OF God to speed the time
Uniting the blue and the gray"
Then the mother thought Of other days
Two stalwart boys from her riven;
How they'd knelt at her side, and, lisping,
prayed
"Our Father, which art In Heaven"
How one wore the gray and the other the
blue;
How they passed away from sight
And had gone to the land where gray and
blue
Merge In tints o, celestial light
And she answered her darling with golden
hair,
While her heart was slrcly wrung
With the thoughts awakened in that sad
hour
BY her innocent, prattlng tongue;
The blue and the gray are the colors OF Colt
They are seen in the sky at even,
And many noble gallant soul
Has found them passports to Heaven

Finally Settled.

with the arrival of Col King in the city this
morning came the news that all arrangements
had been perfected to ship the berry crop over
the Missouri Pacific road. using G. r. T. cars.
This will necessitate the bringing Of all the
berries into Van Buren as the shipments will be
made from the Missouri Pacific depot, and we
doubt not that more than fifteen cars of berries
will be shipped per day during the regular
season. A car will carry 600 crates thus there
will be. II our calculation is correct as to number
Of cars about 5000 crates shipped out per day
from this point, and the picking alone Of this
number of berries will amount to over $is2 per
day. Say that each crate will bring $1.50 on an
average. and You have the sum of $l3, 900.
Verify the berry business Of Van Buren, is
immense.-Venture Sd.
