BY JAMES CREELMAN.

When I was struck by the Mausel
bullet, which smashed my arm and
made gap in my back, I felt as if
had received blow with a shut fist.
The sensation was no more and no less
than that which might have come
from rough punch.
It whirled me half round, but the
bullet did not have weight enough to
knock me down. I neither felt the
bullet at the point Of entry, where the
wound is as small as agimlet hole, nor
at the point of exit in the back, where
there is big gap 81 inches in diane
ter.
It was very curious thing what
little sensation came from the wound
at first. The next moment | felt a
numbness in my arms and a pain in
my hand, and found my arm hanging
loose, like an empty sleeve. the bone
having been broken.
1 had dead Spaniard pushed out OF
a hammock in the stone fort at I'll
Caney and lay down in the hammock
to rest. I bled great deal. A curl
GUS thing about this wound, and all
the more curious because | did not
feel it at the time, is the fact that the
terrible velocity of the bullet actually
burnt the flesh black as it left the
body.
1t left a ring of charred, black flesh.
This circumstance was notified by
Prof. Joseph Bryant, who cut away a
fringe of black flesh from me yester-
day.
The Mauser not only fractured my
arm, but disintegrated the bone in a
very peculiar way, creating innumera-
BILE assures all along the track which
it made through my arm. This is one
Of the curious freaks of the Mauser
fracture.
There are two distinct sounds with
the Mauser bullet. Sometimes you
hear sharp "ping." Then, when it
gets very near, it sounds ''z-z-z. -
In most cases these Mauser bullets
pass through the wounded mans body.
They certainly did not have to probe
for the bullet in my case. This is a
great advantage to wounded man,
and, on the whole, [ believe the Mau-
ser is the most humane of all bullets.

Soap and Water Means Of Grace.

When Rev. A. G. Thomas was pre-
siding elder Of the Dahlonega district,
on one occasion he preached from the
text: Goodness is profitable unto
all things and had much to say con-
corning cleanliness Of house, head,
hands and heart. A preacher who was
present said, Brother Thomas must
have found a hair in his bread this
morning" I do not know what rev.
elations the breakfast table made nor
whether nocturnal marauders had dis
turbed tired nature in her efforts to
WOO the needed presence of balmy
sleep, but do know the sermon blazed
with real gospel light and power, shat
abides unto this day.
The gospel is against all misplaced
dirt. There are houses where it is
poorly worth while to pray, until the
securing mop is used. Poorly worth
while to read the bible until the old,
unhealthy dust and germs of disease
are swept from under the bed. Poor
ly worth while to pray for clean heart
until two or three coats of dirt are
washed off of the children :; faces and
clean raiment put on. If too poor to
afford more than one dress to child,
put them to bed on wash day, for there
is plenty of water in this "land of the
free and home of the brave Better
wear patched clothing than embarrass
one S creditors, but let even the patch
es experience the orthodox necessity
of immersion. There is no excuse for
iilthiness.
Preachers, who have travelled for
years, have gone into log cabins, where
the floor was clean. and, if the furni-
ture was scanty, it was neat and clean.
They have found white houses where
grease and dirt contended like Corbett
and Fitzsimmons, for the predomi-
nance. Why either Of them should
want to predominant is mystery to
me.
Perhaps it will be we'll to say no re-
cent occurrence prompts the writing
Of these lines, but an item from a let

odists, in which he says: 'If you do

Late potatoes ought to be plant
ed deep. This is the way to encour-
age large growth of roots, and these
give you a strong growth of tops, or
grea. vigor to the plants, and assist
the formation of tubers. Six or even
eight inches is none too much for late
kinds especially, and that gives them
abundant ground to forage in. Deep
planting is the best protection against
drouth. IF all the potatoes were plant
ed at least six inches deep instead of
two, they would yield many thousand
bushels more than they do.

A Good Story.

Bishop Wilmer, Of Alabama, was a
very straightforward man, with fac
ulty for saying good naturedly sharp
things to, rather than about, people,
and the Washington Post prints the
following anecdote in this connection
Soon after the civil war, Bishop
Wilmer went to Northern city to ask
aid for Confederate orphans home
in which he was interested.
There was dinner In his honor,
and after dinner the bishop was begg-
ed to tell story. He replied that he
hadn't a story. "But, he added,

that, for the bishops utter unrecon-

Schley his proper place in that great
victory! AS it is, Schley got the VIC
tory and Sampson has got black eye.
Poor human nature! How frail it is.
Sel6shness is generally the dominant
element in man. If all men knew
that selfshness was disintegrating,
that it always defeated its own ends
and ambitions, it would play lesser
mart in motive and conduct.
But it is not my purpose to write
on war. I hope it will soon be over.
By the way, they are getting up all
the surplus boys about Gainesville,
and it is true largely all over the
country. There is many fellow
going to the war because he is out OF
a job. But reckon when they get in
line Of battle they will be as patriotic
as Wheeler, or Shafter, or Sampson.
I am too old to go to war.
In my travels through tile west and
northwest found the crops not near
so good as they were year ago. The
constant rains have flooded the coun-
try; tens Of thousands of acres Of
wheat have not been harvested, and
great deal Of that which was harvested
has been badly damaged. The corn
looks small and sickly, and the weeds
ale as high as the corn in many fields.
I think the next estimate of the wheat
crop will place it at not over 6OO,OOO,-
900. But that is enough to do us and
leave large surplus. Very likely the
price will not range beyond IS and 70
cents, and I don't think it will get
lower than that.

The Sunday Question.

The Independent has given its read
ers symposium on "The Sunday
Question: The contributors are rep
resentative men in church and State,
both Protestant and Catholic. It is
the custom of that excellent paper to
give consensus Of opinion on current
questions, and the writer's are usually
men and women whose ability to speak
is recognized. No subject has been
discussed that we deem Of greater sig
nifcance and Importance than this.
1t is an honest, intelligent presenta-
tion of the value of the American Sab
bath as day of rest and worship.
We are glad to append the letter Of
Cardinal, Gibbons on the subject !:
'sThe desecration of the Christian
Sunday is a social danger against
which it behooves us to set our face,
and take timely precautions before
it assumes proportions too formida-
BILE to be easily eradicated. A close
observer cannot fail to note the dan
gerous inroads that have been made
on the Lords day in our country
within the last quarter Of a CEN
tury. If these cncroachments are not
checked in time the day may come
when the religious quiet, now hap
PLY reigning in our well-o1dered
cities, will be changed into noise and
turbulence, when the sound of the
church bell will be drowned by the
echo of the hammer and the dray,
when the Bible and the prayer-book
will be supplanted by the newspaper
and the magazine, when the votaries
Of the theatre and the drinking sa-
loon will outnumber the religious
worshipers, and salutary though hts
Of God, Of eternity and Of the soul
will be choked by the cares Of busi-
ness and by the pleasures and dissi-
pations of the world. The Christian
sunday is not to be confounded with
the Jewish Sabbath. 1t prescribes
the golden mean between rigid Sabba-
tarianism on the one hand and lax
indulgence on the other. The Lord s
day to the Catholic heart is always a
day of joy. The church desires US on
that day to be cheerful without dissi-
patton; grave and religious without
sadness and melancholy. She forbids,
indeed, all unnecessary servile work
on that day; but as the Sabbath was
made for man, not man for the Sab
bath, she allows such work whenever
charity or necessity may demand it.
And as it is day consecrated not
only to religion, but also to relaxa-
tion of mind and badly, she permits
us to spend portion Of it in innocent
recreation. In word, the true con-
ception of the Lord day is expressed
in the words Of the Psalmist: This
is the day which the Lord hath made;
let us be glad and rejoice therein. ~
Methodist Rerieip.

BY EDWARD MARSHALL.

I will endeavor to tell how it feels
to be hit by Mauser bullet, my own
experience having been gained from
one that struck away part Of my back
bone.
When the Rough Riders ran into
the Spaniards at La Quasina | first
emptied my revolver at the enemy.
Then 1 began to look around. Sud
denly I felt blow in the back. 1t
was not very hard or atall painful. 1t
was as if somebody had given me
light punch. I fell down, and to my
surprise l was unable to get up. l
had stopped Mauser bullet.
The air was full Of the sounds Of
these dreadful things and of rapid
firing guns brought from the Spanish
warships.
The Red Cross people came to me
first and bandaged me. After that a
surgeon examined me and told me that
I was going to die in few moments,
as my wound was mortal.
believed him. At this stage
felt no pain. I simply lay in the long
grass without any unpleasant sensa-
ton. I afterward found many men
who had similar experiences.
Later, when l began to regain sensa-
tion. I felt as if red-hot needles were
being stuck into my spine all the way
from the bottom Of my back to my
brain. This I have since found was
due to splinters Of bone sticking in
the spinal cord.
My observation in the field and Oh
the hospital ship Olivette, where were
274 of the wounded, incline me to the
strong belief that the Mauser bullet is
a most merciful implement of warfare,
if any bullet can be said to be mercl-
full.
