The 2Ist Kansas.

The following is taken from a letter
written by Msjor W. L. Brown Of the
Twenty-frst Kansas regiment at Chic
kamauga, and published In the State
Journal.
I see in a late issue of the Journal
statement from j. w. f. Hughes
that we have been brigaded with the
Eighth Massachusetts, and the Seven
ty.frst New York. That both of these
had been sent to the front and we
were left. That we were again brig
AIDED with the Second Massachusetts,
that it was then sent to Tampa and
we were left behind.
do not know where the gentleman
got his information, as it was news to
the regiment. We were brigaded on
our arrival here with the Eighth
Massachusetts and the Twelfth New
York. Both of them are old national
gaurd regiments whose organization
dates back nearly half century. We
have been changed but for half day
and then the order was resclnded.
The Eighth Massachusetts and the
Twelfth New York are still IN our
brigade and are equipped the same
as we are aud will go to the front at
the time we do.
The plea WIS made that the ineifici-
ency of the officers is what was hold
ing the regiment back but with Col.
Fitch at its head, who for eight years
was an officer IN the Illinois national
guard; with Let. Col. McOrum, WHO
succeeded Col. j. w. Il. Hughes as
major general Of the Kansas national
guard; Major Harry Smith, gradu.
ate OF West Point, and with Adiu!ant
Harry Parker Of the regular army, 1t
strikes me that the colonel did not
realize the ebsurdity of his statement.
Not one Of our officers has ever been
court martailed or dishonorably DIS
charged.
Certainly the officers Of the Twenty
first Kansas have soma standing in the
First army corps Lieut.. Col. MoOrum
is detailed as brigade inspector, Major
Smith is a member Of brigade court,
w. L, Brown, inspector rifle practice,
Lieut.. Schultz brigade commissary,
DR.. Armstrong chief of ambulance
corps of the Third division and DR..
Biddle as chief surgeon of the reserve
hospital. 1t is quite likely that the
officers of the First army corps had
not read Col. Hughes interview when
the detail was made out. [ have no
doubt but the war would have been
settled ere this had Governor Leedy
appointed proper officers but Of course
they would have had to obey orders

How tn Roll a Ham,

Select good ham-one that is
thick through and short for its weight.
Be sure, also, that the skin is thin,
that point determining the age OF the
animal from which the ham is cut.
IScrape and wash it we'll, and put it on
to cook in sufficient cold water to we'll
cover it, adding a good half-cupful
each of vinegar and molasses. After
1t has come to boil the heat should
be reduced to just the simmerlng
point. A twelve-pound ham will re-
uuire five hours simmering. When
half-done add two bay leaves, dozen
cloves and teaspoonful Of sage. Let
it cool over night in the water in
which it was boiled. In the morning
remove the skin, place the ham in q
dripping pan, and bake for an hour II

vinegar. When nearly done sprinkle
we'll with brown sugar, and brown. A

Modest people should have a care.
If carried to an extreme, modesty Is
liable to become ridiculous, as in case
reported by the st. Louis GlObe-Demo-
crat: Years ago a member Of the In
diana Legislature, in a brand-new suit
of broadcloth and a silk hat, gold
headed cane and white lawn tie, wan
dered up into the sanctum of the Cour-
ier-Journal, stood around in q listless
way, looked over the papers, went
downstairs and came back several
times. He was asked to take a seat,
which he declined deliberately, and
ended by drawing his chair in a con-
tidential way up to the Roundabout
mans desk.
Couldn't you," he said, put in the
paper that am at the Gait House with
nv bride, and just fling in something
about my being prominent Indlanian!

of thing myself, but you know how the

Melons for Breakfast.

find that no unpleasant results follow

the most unthinking it should be ap-
parent that introducing a cold mass
into the stomach before eating must
necessarily reduce its temperature be-
low that required for digestion. There
are stomachs hardy enough to endure
this treatment, but people should dis.
abuse themselves of the idea that ii
is the proper and healthful thing to
do in all cases. Anyone who is fond
of melons will find them as palatable
after the introduction of warm fooo
into the stomach as before, and gen
orally the result will be more satisfac
tory in the avoidance of any undue
tax on the digestive organs.

What 81 Little Cir, Remembered,

In the matter of the application of
the widow of Charles S. Cowie for o
credit against the estate of decedent,
of which she is administrative, claim
ing that she advanced to her husband
large sums Of money to help him out
of financial difficulties, there was a
remarkable case of memory developed.
The applicants daughter was sworn
by Judge Ferris and testified that she
was thirteen years old; that she re-
membered her father and mother talk
ing over the matters, when the latter
produced number of bonds 'and gave
them to him; she said she remembered
a United States bond for $1,000, and
one for $500, and several for 500, the
total amount being $4,000. At the
time of the transaction the witness
was three years old. Cincinnati Com

men rode away as fast as possible.
When they got out Of sight Wilson
Howard said Tom Baker and Charles
Wooton came to them and fired an ex-
plOsive bullet into the abdomen of the
two wounded men. Wilson Howard
died shortly after telling the story Of
the shooting.
When James B. Howard, who was in
town, heard of the shooting he was al
most crazy with excitement, and, al
though his friends begged him not to
go to the scene of the killing, some six
miles away, he got his horse and gal
loped toward the place. When nearly
there he stopped at Murray's store,
where persons were buying grave
clothes for Store and Howard, and for
the first time heard that his father
was not dead, but he was told by the
doctor who attended him that he could
not get we'll. Rushing out Of the store,
intent on going to the side of his faith
err and his dead brother, he met old
man George Baker face to face. With
out stopping to consider that he was
In no danger from the old man who
had tried so hard to make peace, and
who never carried pistol, young
Howard leveled his gun at Baker and
shot him dead. After staying a short
time with relatives In Harlan County
Howard gave himself up to a kins'
man, so the latter could claim the re
ward of $3.50. The Bakers were
charged with killing Wilson Howard
and Burch Store, and with shooting
old man Howard, but they were &C
Quilted on the examining trial, OF
April II. The next day Sid Baker,
son-in-law Of A. B. Howard, and NJ
kin to the other Bakers, met Charlie
Wooton on the road. After watching
each other for several minutes, the.
both drew their weapons at the SAM
time. A shooting followed In whicl

The Curfew Bell,

There are, it is said, three hundred;
towns in this country in which the
surfew bell is now rung at night The
upholders of the new regulations quote
statistics to prove that crime has de-
creased in consequence, and that
every day fewer arrests have been
made. The object Of Reinforcement is
to keep children off the streets at
night, and to get them, under penalty
of fine in money, safely tucked away
in bed before danger or temptation
can assail them.
When statistics about crime and its
decrease are quoted, the voice OF dis
sension for the time beingis silenced,
and it requires a certain amount Of
hardihood afterward to so much as at'
tempt the first argument to prove
possible other side. But there are
those of us who remember among the
sweetest sins of our youth the joys OF
running away on summer nights wher
bedtime came-well out Of reach O.
the parental voice. There was the
beauty of the early moonlight to temp
US, the fragrance Of sweet fields; there
were the romps on newly mown grass
heaps, the hide and seek behind thu
currant bushes, and the darling
plunge into some boat drawn up Of
the shore. No delights were eve
like them. We would barter mucl
that we possess today to have then
ours again. And there was no pen
atty of two-dollar fine hanging owe
our heads, only the frown on moth
er's face that we could kiss or laug
away in o moment. -Harper's Bazaar.

CUBAN FORESTS.
An Immense Amount of Valuable Timber
Land in the island.

Land in the Island.
Cuba still possesses sixteen million
acres of virgin forest Astounding in
valuable timber, none of which is use
full as coarse construction lumber,
while nearly every foot would be
salable in the United States and bring
high prices. Cuban mahogany and
cedar are particularly we'll known in
the United States. The mahogany is
very hard and shows handsome
grain, and is preferred by many to
any other variety in common use.
The moment Spain drops the reins of
| government in Cuba and trade rela-
tions are re-established with the
States, there will be movement both
inward and outward of forestproducts
which will have beneficial effect up
on the industry In both countries.
First to feel the force of this move.
ment towards rehabilitating Cuba will
be the numbering interests Of the
south Atlantic and gulf coasts. Prior
to three years ago they looked upon
Cuba as an excellent outlet for the
coarse end of the mill cuts, and since
that market has been closed to permit
the prosecution of a most hideous and
revolving war, the coarser grades Of
yellow pine produced at coast points
have been marketed with great diff
Guilty and seldom at profit. It is
unfortunately true that Cuba will be
unable to realize so promptly from {
movement to re-establish her mahog
any and cedar trade, for it is claimed
by prominent operators that the in
dustry has been so completely crippled
by the ravages of war that period o
time running from twelve to eightee,
months will be required before log
can be landed at ports in this country
It is hoped that all this may be &C
complished without shedding an add
tional drop of blood. Prior to tn

it would hardly be better than $50,
