with an eccentric individual. who, with
out ado, made his way behind the coun-

fare. The girl was pinned in corner
and dare not cry for help, but saved
herself by an ingenious dodge. A mir
ror, so placed that it just depicted her
head and shoulders. caught her eye, and
pointing to her reflection. said:
There is a girl by yonder table.
Oblige me. please. by taking her order"
and. pushing tray into his hand, she
thrust him away coaxingly. adding, as
her reflection disappeared: "She has
seated herself behind the screen, there"

The Largest Regimental Loss.

The largest regimental loss on either
side during the late civil war, says the
st. Louis Republic, was sustained by
the Twenty-sixth North Carolina-Pet-
tigrew's brigade. Heth's division. They
had full quota of 500 men on July 1.
1863, but in the single battle Of Gettys-
burg lost 55S men, eighty-six killed and
500 wounded, not including the miss
ing" of which there were 120. Accord
ing to Col. w. F Fox. in one company.
eighty-six strong, every man was hit,
and the orderly who made out the list
did so while suffering from a wound in
each leg. Surely those were times which
not only tried mems souls" but made
heroes Of those who survived and mar
tyrs of the dead.

A Soldier Shot Over q Tree Top.


One of the saddest accidents that &C.
Cured during the rebellion happened
at Huntsville, Ala, in the spring OF 1854
The First Chicago Light Artillery was
crossing the switch tracks at the depot
and the rattle and jar of the ammunl'
ton in the caisson boxes caused an ex-
plosion, killing nine men and six horses
-one man in coming down out OF the
air left his entrails hanging In tan
tree. Another man with both legs cut
off six or eight inches from the BODY,
was walking and trying to run away
from the wreck, but fell over dead In
less than five minutes after the explos-
ion.
While we were gathering up the frag-
ments I found a mans arm about Tor
ty rods southeast of the wreck, ana
mans watch key was found blown
through the upper window of a tall
grist mill some forty rods southwest.
The lead teams had dragged the wheel
team about forty feet and then fell over
dead lying in their natural position as
when travelling. But the men (when we
got them gathered up) were simply
pile Of fragments. especially the SIX
men who We're sitting on the caisson
boxes, for they had hot seat to sit on.
