There is ghost on change. The specter

that reels out with the tape.
He glides in at the opening hour along
with the first of the throng, and basks be-
fore the relentless foe that laid him low.
He was q warni-bloeded, vigorous trader
entering manhood. He was baptized in
the pit when barely 81, and has never fal-
tered in his devotion. Fortune smiled on
him lavishly at first and fixed the passion
for the game. Then came reverses barely
noticed by the youth and after that the rag
ged course of ups and downs that banished
serenity.
As years passed wife came into his
home and then child. Thsy were passing
joys, not strong enough to more than cause
ripple in sthe current of his life. When
they passed away in death, the ripple re-
turned, but left the current as strong as be-
fore.
Close in the tentacles he served his
master well. until age wore down his vigor,
and his fortune slipped away and left him
stranded.
But he b as not wavered. He sticks TO the
hand that took his heart.
With notebook in hand, he follows every
deviation OF the market. His face reflects
all the changing conditions as OF yore, and
he does net miss point as it goes up on the
board. His eyes feast on the big traders,
and follow all their moves, and weird,
subtle gieam Of appreciation steals into his
face as he sees the deal unfolding itself.

side fell at Bald Hill in front OF At
ianta. That day two corps Of Hoods
army made n sortie from the trenches.
aiming to turn and destroy Mcpherson's
line, near Decatur. In a heroic effort
TO save his command, an effort highly
successful. Mcpherson died as simply
and as obscurely as the commonest sol
der who went down that day. While
Hardee's Confederates moved silently
up TO confront McPherson's right wing
under Blair. Cheatham's corps passed
beyond to sIke up the battle against
any Union forces thrown in on Blair's
left. That morning Mcpherson had or
dered Dodge's Sixteenth corps to form
on Blair's flank. and at noon it was
on the grounds preparing to deploy
its lines. Suddenly. there was an out
burst Of musketry away beyond Blair's
left. There was swift confusion on
both sides. The Confederates pushed
their way through binding thicket
only to run upon Sweeny's division, un-
der arms and waiting for nothing in
particular. hence waiting for a chance
fight. Sweeny met the attack, which
Mcpherson saw was NO accidental coll
lsion. The latter again ordered Dodge
TO place his divisions under Sweeny and
Fuller. upon Blair's flank. But swift
glance told him that, after Dodge should
nave formed his line to match the enc
my confronting him, there would be a
gap between the two corps. Galloping
off to Blair he directed brigade sent
TO the gap. Returning after a time down
the limo with two or three aids and an
orderly, he rode on along the unoccu-
pied ground toward the Confederate po-
sition. Just then n brigade Of Ten
nesseeans happened to march past, and
some Of them. seeing the blue coats, let
fly volley. Mcpherson fell from the
saddle and was dead when his orderly
reached him.

u balky horse which it occasionally fell

rending experience and l often ex-
hausted my patience and ingenuity in
attempts to make him go. He would
jog along all right on the level or down
hill, but he would not 60 up hill. He
would just stand. If you would lick
him he would proceed to back. Finally
I hit on a scheme. When came to a

whip him and he would back up the
hill. When he reached the top l just
turned him around and he would so

is good Illustration Of the love the
Confederate soldiers bore toward Gen.
Robert r.. Lee. AS is well known, Gen.
Fftzhugh Lee was at the head Of the
cavalry. and these were much envied
by the infantry men, who had TO walk
through the mud and dust.
After Gen. Robert l.. Lee had sur

from Appomattox. While riding
through a lane he met an old North
Carolina soldier.
"Ho, there!" cried Gen. Lee, where
are you going?"
I've been off on a furlough. and am
now going back to join Gen. Bob Lee"
replied the old soldier.
You needn't go back. but can throw
your gun away and return home, for

Omaha's Rival to sandow.

Omaha has a genuine phenomenon
In the way of strong man, a regular
coming Sandow. His name is Alois
Swoboda and he is but % years Of age.
He was born in Vienna, Austria, and is
fine example of what a man can make
of himself physically II he goes at it
the right way. Swoboda has been ex-
amined frequently by physicians and
they are unanimous on the point that
he is a marvel of muscular develop
ment. The muscles all over his body,
when contracted, are as hard as steel,
and when relaxed as soft as n girls.
The measurements of Omaha's Hercu-
les are as follows: Height, feet six;
weight, 145; chest. As inches; waist,
2S1a; expansion, IA inches; biceps, 16;
thigh, 23Ia; wrist, Z. He has a perfect
physique and enormous strength. He
toys with a 250-pound dumb-bell as a
boy would handle feather duster and
tears two packs of cards in two with
the wonderful strength of his hands.
He has a system of training peculiarly
his own.
