Power Near Large Cities that Is Not

The tides OF the North aud East Riv-
ers produce power enough to generate
all the electricity to light New York
and Brooklyn. to do all the mechanical
work in the factories and machine
shops, and to run all the railroad lines
in the city and suburbs. This power is
wasted, as formerly all Of the powct If

had evacuated Richmond, offered Il re-
ward of 100000 for the capture of
Jefferson Davis. All available troops
In the neighborhood of his supposed
route were thrown forward in pursuit.
On the morning of May II, 1865, dctach.
ments Of the Fourth Michigan Cavalry
reached the little camp of the fugitives.
1t was In the pine woods about one and
IA half mile from l~rwinsville, Ga. Just
at daybreak Capt. Lawton and about
a dozen troopers walked their horses
to the edge of the woods, and then
dashed up to the tents. No one vas in
sight. except n negro, who led Mr..
Davis horse, saddled and ready for
flight. In a moment Mr.. Davis and
his wife came out of a little wall tent
at the side of the road. Davis wore a
Woman's waterproof cloak, and had n
woman's shawl thrown over his head.
He started down the road. Seeming to
be an old woman, he was allowed to
pass, but Corporal George Munger
quickly observed that he wore boots,
and galloped after him, hating him
and lcveling his carbine. Davis sur
rendered. Later Davis himself said
he had taken the waterproof in mis-
take for his own, owing to the dark
ness in the tent, and that his wife
threw the shaw over his head.
Tho reward of 100000 was not dis
tributed until 1868, three years after,
when pretty nearly every one in the
pursuit received a share of the money.
Several of the officers got $4,000 each,
but Munger's portion was only $500.
