Lambert's nerves were tingling a

a mystery, had all been foreshadowed.

his regiment. The adjutant and quar-
termaster were both down when Close.
arrived and reported for duty. In his
calm, stolid, impressive way he proved
vastly useful. Indeed, at time when
men were dying or DESERVING by scores,
when even sentry duty had to be aban-
doned, and when government property
was being loaded up and carried away
and sold in the city, it is difficult to say
what losses might not have been sus-
tanned but for his tireless vigilance. He
exposed himself fearlessly among the
dying. He said he had had light at
tack of the fever at New Iberia earlier
in the season and couldn't take it again.
At all events, he did not. He was prob
ably the only officer who remained
longer than week at the stricken post
and escaped.
At last came the welcome frost, Vel.
low Jacks conqueror, followed by new
officers and recruits in plenty, and
Closes occupation was gone. He had
helped to bury the adjutant, but the
quartermaster proved tough, and-to
Closes keen disappointment, as the
boys began to say with returning
health, appetite, and cynicism-recov-
cred from his desperate illness and re.
sumed his duties. When December and
the new colonel came, drills and dress
uniforms were ordered. and Close got
leave of absence and tried to get back to
bureau duty, where they did not want
him. Then he appealed to Farnham.
and through him to Gen. Sherman.
His wounds made him stiff and sore: he
couldn't drill or parade. It transpirel
that he had no full uniform, and his
first and only frock-coat had been let out
to the last shred and was still too tight
for him. Then some queer yarns began
to be told. He was quasi executor for
three officers who had died intestato,
and who had little to bequeath any
how. He had nursed them in their last
illness, and such items of their property
as had not by medical orders been con-
demned and burned he had for sale.

he simply had to appear in full uniform,
Close turned out in plumed felt hat,
sash, and epaulets which, when qucs

Stones, and so was the coat. If nobody
could be found to buy them, he would,

He had In on II, town occa s;ons11, ~

He had to go to town occasionally On
board OF survey or similar duty, and
always sought a seat in somebody's am
bulance 10 save the nickel for six-mlle
aide in the tram car. When he had to
take the car he would wait for some of
the youngsters, well knowing they
would ply his fare. Once when three Of

declaration after they were well on
their way, that not man in the party
had less than five-dollar bill, he Of
tered to change the five, but refused to
lend a nickel unless they gave their
word, on honor, that they were not
striving to make a convenience of him.
But the "closest" figuring he had ever
done was that which he carried out for
several months at the expense of a GER
tain bank. Most of the officers on get
ting their pay check towards the end
OF the month would take it to the near
est bank or broker and get it cashed.
Those were easy-going days in the pay
department. Many time the impe-
cunious subs would prevail on the ma jor
or his clerk to let them have their sti-
pend week before it became due, and
it would be spent before it was fully
earned. Close never spent a cent. that
anyone could see or hear of, but he
was on hand to draw it as early as
any of the rest. He would take his
check and vanish. The total footing
up OF his pay rations' servants allow
ance, "fogy," and all, was one hundred
and some dollars and sixty-eight cents.
They used no coin smaller than the
nickel" Give cents) in the south in
those days, and it was the practice of
the banks and money-changers gener-
ally to give the customer the benefit
if the check called for more than half
the value of the nickel, otherwise to
hold it themselves. If the amount were
SO cents the customer got only So; if
it were So cents he was paid IS. Those
officers who kept bank account, and
there were three or four, perhaps, who
did SO, simply deposited their check for
it's face value and had done with it. It
was supposed that such was Closes Gus
tom; but he was wiser in his generation,
as was learned later. Close took his
check to the paying teller and got 100
and some dollars and 70 cents. Then
he deposited this cash with the clerk
at the receiving window and was two
cents ahead by the transaction. When
it was finally discovered and he was
politely told that hereafter he would
be credited only with the sum called
for on the face of his check, Close got
it cashed elsewhere and deposited his
70 cents regularly as before. "But what
he does it for is a mystery" said the
bank official who let this stable cat out
of the bag, "for he never has more than
few dollars on deposit more than a
week. He checks it cut through some
| concerns up north"

ANECDOTE OF BISMARCK,
A Little joke Of His Which Averted
Stormy Scene.

Little joke of His Which Averted q
Stormy Scene.
Americans are familiar with the
stronger features of Bismarck's char
acter as shown in his political acts,
but among his own people anecdotes are
told which exhibit his keen wit in rep
artee and love of fun, qualities for
which perhaps we do not give him
enough credit.
One story told by 4 German diplomat
list is said to be authentic. At the close
of the Franco-Prussian war a hasty
conference was held by the German
leaders to decide upon the amount of
indemnity which should be expected
from France. Bismarck, differing from
Won Moltke, telegraphed to Berlin for
a fnancier in whom he had unbounded
confidence. The man was a Hebrew,
and was, fer some reason, disliked by
the great Prusslan general. When,
therefore, he gave his opinion that the
amount demanded should be SO many
thousand million francs, Won Mojtlze
exclaimed impatiently:.
"Absurd! It is too much"
II know the resources of the French
people," said the fnancier, calmly.
''They can pay it,
''It is a monstrous demand" repeat
ed Won Moltke, angrily. IF a man
had begun when the world was created
to count, he would not have reached
that sum now"
'And that is the reason" interrupted
Bismarck quickly, his eye twinkling,
"that got man who counts-from
Moses!''
Won Moltke and the Hebrew tried to
look grave, but both laughed, and the
storm was averted.
The sequel to the anecdote has a
deeper meaning. The fnancier, when
he received the summons to the confer
ence, was undergoing treatment for
some affection of the eyes which re-
quired confinement in a dark cham
Der. His oculist warned him that if
he obeyed the summons, the exposure
and delay in treatment would almost
inevitably result in loss of sight.
He was silent a moment, and then
said: II think that l am needed.
have no right to consider my sight.
will 60"
He went, and the results which the
oculist had feared ensued. He became
blind for life.
Won Moltl5e, when the story was told
him, said briefly: II wronged the man.
He has served his country as truly AZ
any soldier on the field. "-Youth's Con.
panion.

epidemic prevented any "crowding" of
the old fellow, though there was no lit
tie talk about the habits he was disclos-
ing. The bachelors and 'grass wild
overs of the infantry and battery
started I; mess, but Close declined to
join. He explained that he preferred
to board with French creole family
short distance away, as he ''wished
to learn the language" They gave a
big dance Christmas week and taxed
every officer ten dollars. Close had
nursed Pierce through the fever, and
Pierce was treasurer of the fund. Close
was accounted for as "paid,'' both for
the original ten and the subsequent as
sessment of five dollars that was found
necessary, but it came out of Pierce's
pocket, for Close begged off one and
refused the other, and Pierce would not
tell until it was dragged out of him by
direct questioning months after. It
1ranspired that Close went only once a
day to the humble dwelling, four blocks
away, where he preferred to board. He
assiduously visited the kitchen of Com
pany &c" at breakfast and dinner time
to see that those meals were properly
cooked and served, and there could be
no question that he personally "sam-
pied" everything they had. He wore
the clothing issued to the men, until
the colonel insisted on his appearing in
proper uniform, and then had to rebuke
him for the condition of the paper COL
lar and frayed black bow that were at
tached to the neckband of his flannel
shirt. He wore the soldier shoe, and
swore that no other kind suited his foot.
He had to write letters occasionally, but
when he did so he repaired to the COM
pany Office or that of the post quarter
master, and not one cent did he spend
for stamps.
Indeed it became subject of unoffi-
cial investigation whether he spent
cent for anything. He bought nothing
at Finkbcin's, the suffers, where, in
deed, he was held in high disfavor, his
war record and fever service to the
contrary Notwithstanding. He never
touched = card, never played billiards,
and never invited anybody to. drink,
even when his brother officers called
upon him in squads of two or three to
see if he would. That he had no preju-

Of no ambition won:
To look upon thee passing,
AS those who dream bright dreams,
And find when they awaken
But icy fields and streams. ~,
Farewell to idle visions,
And welcome little cot:
And let the rose of glory
Forever be forgot.
A health to those around me,
Whose hearts are plain and true,
And in the cup of plenty.
To all vain dreams adieu.
