Custer discovered him, in the early '70's,
he was a chairman on the Northern Pa
cific Railroad survey, at $50 month.
Think of this for a man whose commits
sion as lieutenant general had been sign
ed a few days before the surrender at APP
pomattoX. The meeting was affecting
enough. Tom dropping a tear or Two and
Fanny" actually boohooing with happl-
ness. Custer and his cavalry were keep
ing the Sioux from scalping the engineer
ing corps, and for old times sake Rossers
name was Immediately placed on the army
pay roll.
When the war department heard of the
ex-Confederate's excellent fortune the
matter was laid before President Grant
and in the politics of the army so strong
pressure was brought to bear that Custer
was ordered to take his friend off the roll
He wrote to Washington: II will drop
Rosser from the payroll, but he shall re-
main with me and I will pay him out of
my own pocket" The effort to ruin Gus
ter resulted in his suspension for a time,
and he felt the disgrace of this keenly
when he led his expedition against the
Sioux In 1876. He begged Rosser to go as
his aid but the latter held back saying:
Fanny, old fellow, 1 refuse, not because
I don't want to go, but because 1 have
already caused you too much trouble"
History tells the rest. Custer and his
whole force were lost at the Ldttle Big
Horn.
Rosser rose to be division engineer on
the Northern Pacific, and, when forced
out by some internal dissension, remain
ed in possession of a profile that was a
necessity to the company. When efforts
We're made to deprive him of this he re-
marked: 1.-The profile is my own; if you
want it you must come to my terms. "
Some say that he sold it for $50, 600;
others for 100000. At any rate, he built
a $500O0-house in Milwaukee, where he
lived for a while with his wife; but her
health failing, he removed to Charlottes-
vile, Va, where his home now is. He
has been trying to go to Congress for
many years, but was too early in the field
of Populism and got a bad start.

ROSSER AND CUSTER.
They Were Good Friends, Although
Once Enemies.
From the New York Press.

From the New York Press.
The appointment of Thomas L. Rosser to
a brigadier generalship in the army Is
credited to President McKinleys personal
account. Some excellent stories have been
published about Tom, but as rule they
are not historically correct. He was four
years at West Point graduating in 1861 IN
the class that produced George Armstrong
Custer, Orville e. Babcock, David H.
Buell. Judson fitzpatrick and Emory Up
ton. He and Custer We're room mates
The latter was known among the cadets
as Fanny" on account of his finicky
ways. He had the sole manners OF a girl
and was excessively womanish in mat
ters of dress
When the war broke out, Custer. who
came from Ohio, remained with the North
ern army, while Rosser, a native of North
Carolina, joined the Confederacy. Ali
through the long conflict they We're doing
their utmost TO capture each other An
unlimited correspondence, with human
lives for postage, was kept up. l mean
by this that il was at the expense of num-
erous brave soldiers that Toms hopes
were pressed and "Fanny's" desires urged
forward. Their missives would be inter-
esung reading now. Toms love notes and
"Fannys" bnlets-doux, in return, were
sent through the lines in the face of des-
perate chances.
Custer commanded the crack cavalry
force Of the army of the Potomac, and
Rosser. when he succeeded TO Ashby's
command. after the battle of Cross Keys.
had the finest body of troopers in the army
Of Northern Virginia. one day a Confed-
crate officer called out, There's Custerr'
where" asked Rosser; and when the
man had pointed out a group of Yankees
in a road half a mile off. the general
spurred forward at a gallop, dashed into
the midst of them. and, seizing an imita-
nonbCuster by the throat, jerked him off
his horse Many young men in his COM
mand dressed like Custer, whom they
greatly admired, and Rosser's disgust was
