BATTLE EnFR ESSIONs

FROM the September number OF Cos
mopolitau, by James c,eelman. There
We're two vivid, impressive moments
during the battle of FL Caney. One
was when | stood beside General Chat
fee and saw button cut from his
breast by IA Mauser bullet y moment
before, he had been raging up and down
the line, the only man in his whole
brigade, who was not living fiat on the
grass. His hat was on the back of his
head, his lean. thirteen century face
Was giorilied with the passion and fury
Of TIE light-the toughest, profanest,
divinest soldier ! ever saw i'm battle, his
ewes shining, and the muscles standing
out on his neck and forehead like
knotted cords. Then As stood beside
him in the shadow for moment. Il
Mauser bullet clipped the shining anna
ment from his breast, and he looked in-
to nay face with half startled half
amused air, The next tremendous
moment was when ] went alone TO the
edge of the trench in front of tie stone
fort, and saw the SpaniaGds who re-
manned alive crouching there and wait
ing FOR death. The thing that facinat-
cd NE Was a drop of blood which hung
ut the eiid Of a dead mans nose Ills
lips Were drawn back from lis teel II
and he seemed Ia be laughing, ana
there en- the end OF his pinched nose
was great bright drop Of blood. IN
In every battle that 20 through, (
somehow ger u melody in my head and
hum il TO the end of the action. | SUP
pose il is the result of nervous excite
nent. y mans nerves play him some
very curious tricks All through the
battle and massacre of Port Arthur in
the japanese W;f, hummed the air
from Mendelosok's "sprugtive, " and
during the shell fire ! found myself a.
tuaiiy shirking it, When started in
the charge Of Fort Caury, began 10
hUUi Rock OF Ages" and / couldn' I
get rid of the tune even when was iy-
ing among the dying % Chafiee's bri-
gade i'll the hospital camp. remem-
Der when General Chafiee leaned over
me after | had been shot and asked
ME how ! was, / couldn't answer him
until had finished in my mind, one
phrase of Crock of Ages"

A MIGHT IN A RUEFAEO
sSUgSE

A party of scouts from the stations
on Biedsoe's creek, in Summer county,
WAS over in Wilson on a tour of obser-
walton for Indian signs, SAYS the Port
land Oregonian. As they prepared to
camp late one winter afternoon Captain
Jennings, who was one of the number,
started out to kill a buffalo from a herd
which was near by.
There was a heavy sieet on the ground.
and ne found it difficult to get good
range Oh account of the noise of his feet
on the cracking ice, but after following
the game for several miles he at last
killed very large bull. Fearing that
the meat might be injured if left until
tine next morning, he skinned the ami
mai and took out the Viscera. BY the
time he was done night had come, and
be decided to remain with his meat in-
stead Of seeking camp in the darkness.
So, wrapping The huge hide around
him, flesh side out, ne lay down and
slept very comfortably until morning
On waking he found himself tightly
imprisoned IN the hide, which had
frozen hard and now resisted all his
efforts 10 escape
Hour after hour rolled by in agony to
the captain. He yelled at the top OF
his voice for help and strained and
kicked with all his might at the raw
hide Enclosure, but il proved stubborn
to the last degree. He doubtless swore
many u bitter oath, for he was of too
irasclbic y temperament to submit
tarely. He expected his companions
to search for him, and they did, bui
with Il great deal OF caution, fearing
that he had been killed by the Indians.
His prolonged absence could he ac-
counted for in no other way He gave
up all hope of eXtricating himself aS
the hours wore away, bat help which
he had not thought Of was to save him
from death which would have been
extremely mortifyins, at the least, TO a
man Who had escaped Indian bullets
and swan icy rivers like IL beaver. We
viii let him relate the issue in his own
words: "WeIl, the sun came out IN
the afternoon, and this sOftened tbs
hide on the top 80 | could get one arm
out, and when ] got one arm out
worked like pizen until got my body

Blanched almonds give The higher

Walnuts give nerve or brain food,

Green water grapes are blood purify

Blue grapes are feeding ana blood

Tomatoes, higher nerve or brain food

ing aUd stimulating. Do not swallow
the skins.
Juicy fruits give more or less the
higher Eerve or Drain, and some few
muscle food and waste no heat
Apples supply the higher nerve and
muscle food, but do not give stay.
| Prunes afford the highest nerve OF
| brain food, supply heat and waste but
are not muscle feeding. They should
bc avoided by those who suffer from

Oranges are refreshing and feeding
but are not good if the liver is out oi

| Green figs are excellent food.
| DRIED cages contain nerve and musclt

All stone fruits are considered TO b,

B 4 ID LUCK .

Talking of bad luck" said Julius
Chown at the Lindell, "reminds me of
man once knew in Iowa who could
have given Job himself pointers in the
matter OF misfortunes. We called him
Calamity Miller. He was prosperous
merchant at Comanche, had Il model
wife and the handsomcst daughter be-
tween the Mississippi and the Big
Muddy. Inez Miller was the recognize
ed beauty of the state Comanche was
visited by Il cyclone, and Miller's store
was torn to pieces, and his goods scat
tered to the four winds. His residence
was totally destroyed, and he was Grip
! pied for life by a falling chimney. Be
| fore the cyclone Miles was moderate
| ly wealthy man. In ten minutes he
was pauper and a cripple. Shortly af-
ter that he was struck by lightning and
partially paralyzed. His wife and
daughter went to stay with relatives at
Gaiesburg, III and were drowned by
the capsizing of boat. That winter
Miller froze to death. Calamity Miller
has long been a synonym in eastern
Iowa for the toughest kind of tough
! luck -
