Company F rushed forward and raised
it from the ground. He was pierced
with many bullets The flag went down
again and was raised by Private Frank
Schultz of Company G. Schultz raised it
twice after it had been shot down and
said to his colonel that so long as he
lived that flag should not lie in the
dust. Corporal Chandler of Company F
received three bullets through his body,
but refused to have his comrades re-
move him out of danger. He said their
time was too valuable. y Afterward he
received two more severe wounds, but
survived. After receiving two wounds
in the head and losing a finger Private
Leland fired over 30 rounds Of cartridges.
Another incident is best told in the
Colonel's own words. He said: "A
wounded soldier, after the contest was
nearly over, spoke feebly to me as I
passed and called me by name. paused
and stopped over to hear some dying re-
quest to a fond mother or sister, but all

The losses of the zouaves at Hanover
Court House represented only about 20
per cent of the strength of the regi-
ment, but it was fully 40 per cent of the
number actually engaged in fighting.
The five companies led by Colonel Rice
bore the brunt of the fight. There were
~ killed outright, 7 mortally wounded
and 81 wounded who recovered. It was
a bloody baptism Of fire.
A month after the battle of Hanover
Court House the regiment fought at
Gaines Mill, losing II killed and NOR
tally wounded; 81 wounded recovered.
At the end of another week the regi-
ment, numbering 225 men, fought at
Malvern Hill. The battle ragged furious
~ for two hours, and the zouaves lost
100 of their number, 21 of them killed
and mortally wounded. The path to
glory was leading many brave boy
"avenger" to soldiers grave.
At the second battle of Bull Run,
fought two months after the battle of
Malvern Hill, the Forty fourth num-
bered 148 muskets. Again it was posted
in a desperate position upon the flank
of its corps, and the zouaves left half
their number killed and wounded upon
the field
At the end Of the year the regiment,
strengthened by recruits and the wound
ed men returned to duty, climbed the
stony sides of Little Round Top with
Colonel Strong Vincent's gallant bri-
gade to seize that position in advance
of the Confederates, who were rushing
toward it in overwhelming numbers.
The story of that desperate struggle is
one of the canoes Of war history. When
the line was formed on the crest of the
mountain, the Forty-fourth became sep
arated from the regiment which had

Electricity and Beef.

The editor of Harper's Magazine
makes both complaint and d sugges-
ton. The complaint is that beef is no
longer what it used to be- Possibly the
editors teeth and appetite may not be-
SO good as they used to be. However
that may be-, he complains of the flavor
of the beef and other meats of today.
He says they are nothing like SO good
as they were when the steer, the lamb
and the poultry were slaughtered near
the place where they were to be eaten
and kept only long enough to cool off
properly.
Cold storage the editor declares to be
the fend that spoils the favor of meats
and makes the delicate taste depart
from them. The animals are slaughtered
thousands of miles away from the spot
where they are eaten, and the dressed
caroasses are shipped over the earth in
refrigerator cars. The editor who misses
the fine flavor of old time beef wonders
whether current of electricity passed
through the refrigerator meat would
not restore the taste. He says:
1t is believed that electricity can do every
thing. Why could not this meat and game be
subjected to electricity when it comes out of
its dead in life bondage, in which it has lost
all life and flavor? I have great confidence in
electricity. I have seen men sitting in electric
chairs and having life currents sent through
their enfeebled frames. It seems to be able to
do something with color. Why should it not
be able to carry havors? 1 do not know that
electricity could wake up this stagnated COM
mercial beef, but the experiment is worth
making. 1t is just possible that the scientists
will be able to send beef current to us by
wire and have it turned on to our tables and
get rid of the tasteless substance altogether

"A Lover OF Nature
Hamilton Wright Mabie furnish.

Hamilton Wright Mabie furnishes in
The Century charming sketch Of John
Burroughs, the lover of nature. Il is
pleasant to know that we have in Amer
lea one man still who loves nature and
studies her creations rather than the
artificial doings of police courts, fac
tories and fashion. We have not had
such man since Thoreau's time, and
John Burroughs is more human and
friendly than Thoreau. John Burroughs
is not so shy and solitary. When he Wis
its cities, girls and boys crowd about
him and hang enchanted on his utter
ances. They never did that with Tho.
reau. Mabie says of Burroughs, "He
has no great love of. cities, but he does
not lose his poise and fall to cursing
when he thinks of London or Boston or
New York. -
Burroughs youth prepared him, all
unknowing, for the life of the natural
list. He says of himself:
AS farm boy had known all the common
birds we'll and had loved the woods passion
ately, but my attention was not seriously
turned to natural history till I was man
grown. But no one starts in the study of nat
ural history with such advantages as he whose
youth was passed on the farm. He has already
got great deal Of it in his blood and bones
He has grown up in right relations with man
and beast The study comes easy and natural
to him. The main things are love of nature
and simple tastes, and who is so likely to have
these as the boy from the farmS
He is the kind of man who can 90
into the woods and sit silent and
happy for hours, watching the wild
creatures, the dancing leaves and the
swaying shadows He does this, too
not as an anatomist studies a skeleton,
merely to find out what it is and done
with it. but simply from love of nature
and her wild children. So he sits and
waits and watches, taking in each part
and fixing its relations to the whole
with loving eye illuminated by wis
dom. 'To see the life of the woods 20
on about you," he says, sit is only nee
essary to keep STILL :" A great lesson
this-to keep still. Here is no ruthless
savage who plunges into the haunts of
birds and woods creatures with dog and
gun. He enters their country only to
make friends with them. The wild
creatures know this instinctively and
do not flee from him.
It is much that America has such
naturalist and such man. One John
Burroughs, with his wholesome, manly,
gentle spirit breathing and shining
through his literary work., is worth all
the multimillionaires who push and
hustle and strive to lick the boots of
corrupt European nobility. So long as
this country can produce still a John
Burroughs there is hope for US.

fourth have always fought side by side,
and 1 wish that they may do the same
today" Colonel Vincent ordered the
regiments to change positions, so as to
bring old comrades shoulder to shout
der.
For a whole hour,'' says Colonel
Rice in his official report, 'the enemy
tried in vain to break the lines of the
Forty-fourth and the Eighty-third,
charging again and again within few
yards Of those unflinching troops, but
every charge was repulsed with terrible
slaughter.
The losses of the Federal regiments
engaged upon Round Top were slight in
comparison with the work done, but
that of the Confederates opposed to
them was frightful. The zouaves num-
bered that day 321 muskets and lost 40
killed. The wounded who recovered
numbered II. Not a man was reported
missing. A little ravine in front Of
where the Forty-fourth and Eighty
third stood upon the crest of Little
Round Top is called "the Valley Of the
Shadow of DEATH" Captain Judson
says that upon that ground he counted
40 dead bodies Of the enemy WITHIN a
circle SO feet in circumference. Upon a
rock buttressed out into that valley and
casting it's shadow athwart it stands
the monument to "Ellsworth's Ayen-
gers. -
But the battles of the Forty-fourth
were not over; they were in the heat of
1t in the Wilderness and at Spottsylva-
MIA. Colonel Vincent had been killed
upon Little Round Top Immediately
after assigning the Forty fourth to it's
position, and Colonel Rice succeeded
him in command of the brigade Rice
was MORALLY wounded on the breast
works at Spottsylvania while leading his
troops in the desperate attack made by
General Warrens column Of picked
men on the 10th of May. 1864. The
regiment served it's time out and left
the service with the remarkable death
roll of 1879 killed in battle.
