Lee therefore gladly followed his guide.
Sure enough, there was one point, and
perhaps the only one, from which the
federal line could be seen clearly. Gen.
Lee FASTENED to find Jackson, and both
rode rapidly to the spot.
Jackson observed the line with great
care. After he had satisfied himself he
pulled his cap lower on his forehead,
turned abruptly away without word of
thanks or even-a nod of appreciation, and
galloped his horse towards his troops to
direct some change in their formation.
AS he rode away his awkward arms flop
ped by his sides. Gen. Lee remained mo-
tionless for a moment watching the un-
calmly rider, and then Indignantly turned
away muttering to himself, Il wish he'd
fall off"
This incident is referred to in his Lee
ture on the Battle of Charlottesville.
Gen. Lee always seemed to possess an
on the retreat to Appomattox this quality
unfailing spring of cheerfulness. Even
seldom left him. When Petersburg was
abandoned, the forts on the river near
Richmond, which had been occupied by
what was left of the officers and gunnera
of the confederate navy were of course
dismantled and this force, commanded
by Gen. Lees father, Joined the infantry
column inits weary march south. Gen.
Lee happened to come up with 1t on the
road. Everybody around him was sad,
discounted, discouraged, desperate. But
in spite of such conditions, a grim smile
came to every face when Gen. Lee re-
marked: well, I've got daddy along
here somewhere"
: There was one spot, however, where
his cheerfulness failed him, where his
face was clouded with the deepest gloom
and where the iron instead of the sun
shine entered his soul. II was Appomat-
tox. There the fountain of gayety be-
came schoked and damned only to burst

THE METHOD Of A GREAT TREATMENT

Painful diseases are bad enough, but
when q man is slowly wasting away with
nervous weakness the mental forebod-

severe pain. There is no 1et-up to the
mental suffering day or night Sleep is
almost impossible and under such
strain men are scarcely responsible Tor
what they do. For years the writer
rolled and tossed on the troubled sea of
sexual weakness, until 1t was question
whether he had not better take dose or
poison and thus end all his troubles. But
providential inspiration came to his aid
In the shape of a combination OF medl-
cines that not only completely restored
the general health, but enlarged his
weak, emaciated parts to natural size
and vigor, and he now declares that any
man who will take the trouble to send
his name and address may have the
method of this wonderful treatment free.

without cost, because / want every weak

DENIED BY CARLISLE.
Lii Hung Chang Did Not Say China
Would Adopt Gold Standard.

CINCINNATI Oct. 2S.-The statement
carried from Washington in special dis
patches to the effect that Ii Hung Chang
while there, had told Secretary Carlisle
that China was to be placed on a gold
basis w Is repeated to the Secretary to-day
by a reporter who found him at the home
of Mr.. Frank p. Helm, in Covington Mr.
Carlisle at once said the statement was
wrong. While he could not be expected to
make public the matters confided to him
by the Chinese Premier during his visit at
Washington, there was improprety in
saying that Ii Hung Changs conversation
about the affairs of China was all based
on the assumption that the present finan-
cial system should not be changed. OF
course under this state of fact it could not
have been possible that Lii Hung Chang
told the Secretary that he would change
the financial system of China from silver
to gold. Secretary Carlisle excused him
self from further particulars on account
of the fact that his interview with the
Chinese Premier was for the most part an
official one, and he regretted that 1T was
not possible to do more than to say that
no intention of a change of financial basis
was revealed in their conversation.
