Palmer and Buckner compose a ticket
that is affectionatey referred to by old
soldiers as THE Veteran Ticket" Both
were intrepid soldiers, and the fact that
one wore the blue and the other the gray
makes the present fellowship all the more
significant. After Gen. Palmer and Gen
Buckner arrived in this city they were
visited by a number of veterans, and as
is the case whenever old soldiers get to-
gether, war "reminiscences were revived
and number of good stories were told.
one was told upon Gen. Palmer, and the
authorship is laid at the door of Gen
Buckner, but there may be a denial Of
the paternity of the story, says the New
York Tribune.
The story is war story. of course One
day, so the story runs, Gen. Palmer decid-
cd TO ride out in front of the camp where
the union army was resting. He rode out
late IN the afternoon and began a search
ing examination of the ground and the
outposts 1t began to grow dusk but
the general did not notice the flight of

called to the situation by a warning cry

Gen Palmer then saw that he was con-
fronted by a rebel outpost. The picket
IN gray had a shining gun barrel leveled
at him. Ignoring the danger, the general
brushed aside the weapon and put spurs
10 his horse. The gun was discharged,
but the bullet sped harmlessly through
the air. The rifle discharge aroused the
plckets all along the line, and the general
gailoped furiously back toward the union
lines under a pattering rain of bullets
Just as he imagined he was safe, and
was refining his horse in, he turned a cor
ner of a wooded plat and almost bumped
into another rebel picket Again he
heard the stentorian order. halt" With
the word the picket raised his gun and
leveled it at the breast of Gen. Palmer.
The general, who was just putting spurs
to his horse in disregard of an order while
still in motion struck the gun from the
pieket's hand, saying, sharply: you
blithering idiot, do you want to assassin
ate me?"

Sunshine From Memory,s Path,

Luke Pryor Pettus.
They gazed upon the marble shaft,
Two relics both worn and grey,
Garnering roses from mem'ry's path
In the square of Monterey.
He tottered with his trembling cane,
She softly tread beside;
Each bearing dint of lifes sad wane-
Each looked, each thought, each sighed.
Backward, backward, sweet mem'ry went
Into childhood's happy play,
Where little hearts by love were bent
In the square of Monterey.
Eyes, here it was he said to her.
Right in this very square,
THAT we when children used to play,
Unknown to every care"
ooh, yes" said she, sit was over there.

Then gently WHISPERED. TO dry my tear

Eyes, yes, it was; l remember now,
And it seems but yesterday,
THAT you were the sweetest, fairest flower

Sweet was the blush that softly stole
over that age-kissed face,
That Sweetest Story Ever Told
Retaind its rhythmic grace.
"And here we STOOD" he spoke again.
ITO see great Lafayette;

All sorrows fade away.

Carlisle May succeed BLACKBURN.

Before the Covington mob attacked Mr.
Carlisle 1t was thought that he might be
elected United States senator to succeed
Senator Blackburn. and since that Incl
dent, in all parts of Kentucky, the wish
is expressed by Mr.. Carlisle's friends that
he may be sent to the Senate. The af-
front at Covington would be atoned for
by making him senator.
1t is not known that Mr.. Carlisle wants
to continue in public life. He is a poor
man and would like to make some pro-
vision for his declining years. He has
planned to go to New York at the end
of his term as Secretary of the Treasury,
and practice his profession of the law.
He could command big income owing
to his large acquaintance and ripe expe-
rience. Still, it is believed he would ac-
cept the senatorship if it were offered to
him
1t is thought it will be offered to him.
1t is understood that a special session of
the legislature will be called soon after
the Presidential election, at which a SEN
ator will be chosen. The republicans and
1 gold standard democrats have a majority,
and therefore are in a position to choose
a senator. That the republicans would
| support Mr.. Carlisle there doesn't seem
to be any doubt. They cannot elect SEN
ator because they haven't a majority and
they would much prefer a gold standard
democrat to Senator Blackburn.
Senator Blackburn is helping to turn
public sentiment in favor of Mr. Carlisle
by apparently approving, in his public
! speeches, the Covington outrage. Why
he should take that course, in the face
of the better sentiment of his state can
be explained only on the ground that he
has permitted his temper to get the bet
| ter of his judgment.

Reports from various sections of the
state are to the effect that the drought is
becoming very serious so serious indeed
that there is danger of water famine in
some communities. Only the other day
our correspondent at Douglas wrote that
during the session of the Coffee county
court II was found necessary to haul water
number Of miles for man and beast: that
the wells, springs and streams were going
dry, and cattle were beginning to suffer
for water. Another correspondent wrote
that the Altamaha was lower than it had
been known for years, and still another
that the fish In small streams were dying
because Of the stagnation Of the water.
And now the Atlanta Journal says that If
the drought continues much longer At
lanta may be in danger Of a water famine
unless a new dam Is built in the Chatta-
hoochee river. The water in the river
is lower than 1t has been in fifty years.

During the recent reunion Of Knights of

Tribune, the delegates wore badges en-
blazomed with the letters f. C. B., denot-
ing friendship, charity. benevolence. A Chi
cago drummer, who is little off in spell
ing, happened to be in Cleveland at the
time. He was amazed by the turnout the
Knights of Pythias made, and the multi
tude of men wearing f. c. B. badges made
deep impression on his mind. When he
got back home his employer asked him:
"How's the political situation in Cleve-
land?"
"Oh, everybody's crazy for the demo-
cratic candidate" was the reply. L saw
