Colonel Sam Boynton, OF Chicago, a
member of Farragut Post Of that city,
is q champion story teller. Most Of his
stories are Of a character to raise q
laugh in the postroom, but he has q
store OF serious and sentimental ones
as well. Knowing that he had served
under Colonel John G. Clark when
that officer was provost marshal for q
portion Of Wisconsin, l asked him to
tell me n of his best secret service
stories.
Il guess it's all right to talk about It
now, more than thirty years after It
occurred" said the Colonel, and then
he told this thrillingly interesting bit
of personal experiences:
Colonel Clark had convinced himself
that there was a powerful influence ex!
erting itself against enltstments in the
southwestern portion of the State to
meet Lincoln's next to last call for
troops, and he had every reason to
believe that it was the result Of oppo-
sition to the war felt by a society which
called itself the Golden Circle. He
called me to his Office and said: 4

Ing at Monroe at the time. My brother
in-law, General E. e. Bryant, Of Madi-
son, had just been appointed lieutenant
colonel Of n of the new regiments. I
told him my mission. He said It was
rather risky work, and that he would
rather go into battle than to undertake
such a task, and warned me to be very
cautious and to always be prepared
to fight for my life. had two good re-
v~olvers, every barrel loaded, and was
otherwise well prepared, and set out
on the journey with both nerve and
confidence. I "a a duly authorized
and equipped organizer Of the regular
Golden Circle Association, for that par
ticular trip. Reaching Benton, l reg

a Dol in the only hotel in town, got
dinner and sauntered out on the street.

long to discover that the proprietor
stood on the platform of anything to
put an end to the war. While I was

the saloon-keeper for a special pur-
pose. | took small doses and the man
behind the bar large ones.
Toward evening my friend was
quite mellow, and I learned from him
that he was a member Of an antiwar
society they had In town. I warmly
congratulated him and then revealed
to him that I had bees ~ent there to

Notes and Commento.

Archbishop Machray, Of Rupert'a
Land, Canada, and primate Of the An
glican Church in Canada, is said to be
the tallest bishop in the world.
A French priest, Father Martin, "a.
vances an extraordinary theory about
lola In a religious review. He thinks
that the directing principle Of Zola's
life Is his love Of animals. He shows q
monstrous and even a s~acrilegious SYM
pathy for cats and dogs. They are, he
feels, his kindred. This accounts for
his dwelling, as he does, on the lowest
instincts Of man. He can see the beast
IN him, but not the angel.

Provincial Of the Order of Hermit

tual ~countenance. He has a high repu+
tation for learning, speaks English iu-
emily, has been in close touch with the

to be fond of Americans. He lives in

Feeding Hens Wheat.

Wheat Is good to make hens lay. but
1t must be fed in moderation. Hens are
very fond Of wheat, and II given what
they will eat Of it they will fatten as
fast as II the grain were corn. 1t is
best always to make the hens earn
what they get by %sprinkling their grain
be got that should be used, and when
the wheat gets scarce the hens will fill
up on clover, which is an excellent food
for egg production. No kind of grain
can be depended on for q full ration for
fowls | n winter. They need some grass
or vegetables or clover. so that the
grain may not lay in a hard lump on
their gizzards.

An En- m - Approoe h.


Among the experiences recited in
"Our Army Nurses" is one by Mrs. Cod
dington-a midnight alarm. House
keepers may find in It something more
than 4 bit Of humor.
We were so far removed from the
seat Of war that we saw little of an
exciting character. One days work
was much like a~nother's. Once Gen
eral Price threatened u.s., and every
soldier who was able, whether in the
barracks or in the lspital, was order
ed to sleep on his arms.
I remember well that night. After
taps had been sounded and lights were
out I went to my window, and looking
out into the night, wondered IL the
enemy would really come. After u
while I heard In the distance a sound
like the tramping OF horses feet and
the rulnbling Of wagon-wheels, and I
expected every moment that u en-
tire force would be called out to at
tack General Price and his army.
In the camp all remained quiet as
usual. Still l listened, and o II
could see In the moonlight a train pf
wagons approaching. II was an en-
envy In very truth-loads of sour com
mtsssry bread.
