ENTERTAINMENT AT WEST DUR
HAM.

The WestDurhamites are in high glee
over the entertainment last night.
First of all the hall was crowded as
long as there was standing room, and
they were appreciative and manifested
their appreciation in no uncertain
way. 1t was a joyous occasion, de-
lightful to those who participated and
especially delightful to Mrs. Bessie s.
Leak, President, and Mrs. r. C. Burton,
Vice-President of the Board of Lady
Managers of the Hospital. The pro
gram was what might have been ex-
pected from these ladies and its rem
dition was, to say the least, charming.
The Board of Lady Managers at the
close of TIE term of their session has
not only shown their fitness for the
trust committed to them, but have en-
chared themselves to the people of
Durham

exposing himself to imminent danger, but
he merely said 81 can't go till this is de-
cided. If we are beaten here l shall have
to make other dispositions" How he
things that we are accustomed to term mi
raculous.
When l returned to headquarters said
to Rosecrans: 81 have Just been over the
battlefield with Charley Thompson.
What were your sensations when so con-

His answer was: al had no sensations.

On the following day l rode oHt with
Rosecrans General Garfield (then his chief
OF staff, several other officers, and squad
OF OF about hundred men, to Grantlands,
the birthplace and home of Miss Murfree,
the well-known author. but then occupied
Dy GENERAL Sheridan as his headquarters.
as we entered the forest inclosing the

"You know what Wolfe said before his

Soon we saw through an opening in the
trees several thousand men under review

Rosecrans assented, and, turning our
horses, we galloped off through the forest.
The underbrush was cleared away, and q
rich sward of blue grass covered the
ground, but every here and there a great
tree cut down for the fertilization OBJ

eighty feet long and nearly ten through
at the stump lay directly across our path.
Garfield and /, who rode on either side of
the general, refined our horses around the
two ends of the tree, and the remainder of
the party divided and followed US. But
Rosecrans spurred his horse, Toby, di-

ROSEcRANS IN BATTLE.
How He Held His Own Aoaips+
a Vastly Superior
Force.
ONE OF THE INCIDENTS AT IuKA
The Generals Tribute to a Brave
Soldier Who Risked Death to
Save Regiment.

When I was on visit to General Rose
Grams at Murfreesboro, Tenn, early in
1868, he introduced to me a member of his
staff, young man of about 80, bearing q
striking facial resemblance to Napoleon.
His name was Arthur G. Ducat. He was
then inspector-generalo of Rosecrans' army,
and is now resident of Chicago. When
he had left the room the general saio to
me: THAT is one of the bravest men l
ever knew; saw him once coolly face al
most certain death to perform a duty.
Three had fallen before his eyes, and he
had to run the gauntlet of thousand
muskets; but he did it,
cannot repeat the remainder in the
generals own words, but 1 think 1 can
correctly relate the circumstances. 1t was
at the battle of Iuka, where Rosecrans,
with only $500 men actually engaged, was
lighting Confederate force of II ,000 hold
ing a chosen and very strong position.
Ducat, in riding up to the general, had
observed regiment of General Stanley 8
division that was about to be enveloped
