Firm Resolution.

Dave Saddler was n brave Con-
fcderate soldier who was in the hos
pital at Richmond, and who. in spite
of his su~fferings, always took = cheer
full view Of the situation. One day,
when he was recovering, a visiting
minister approached his cot, and ten
dercd him a pair Of homemade socks.
Accept these" said he. II only
wish the dear woman who knit them
could present them to you in person.
THANK you, very much said Da-
yid, gravely, but | have decided that
l shall never wear another pair Of
socks while l live"
The preacher protested, but to no
p'.rcse: and finally he sought out the
boy $ sister to tell her how foolishly
the invalid had behaved.
'Why,' exclaimed she. both his
feet have been shot To"th'x

Cured a few weeks later | had occa-
sion to rebuke 81 Tucker for q fault
quite unrelated TO cowardice. We
had been ordered to go with our NOR
tars as near as possible to the crater
and to drop a continual rain of shells
among the thousands Of helpless fell
lows in that awful pit. 1t was cruel,
CHASTITY work. But it was war. And
a poet has justly characterized war as
a 'brain-spattering, windpipe-splitting
art Or, as Gen. Sherman once said,
and he knew, War is all hell
"We were within sixty yards Of the
crater. Each one of our mortars was
belching from three to five shells a
minute into that hole but ST Tuck
er's enthusiasm was not satisfied.
Having no personal duty to do at the
moment, he began plugging shells with
long fuses, lighting them, running
with them to the margin Of the pit
and tossing them in as hand grenades.
lie was greeted by a tremendous volley
Of musketry at each repetition Of this
performance but he did it three
times before we could stop him.
That evening, near the cleaning,
he did another thing. The lines hal
by that time been restored. The men
in the crater-thosc Of them who had
not been killcd-had been driven back
to the Federal side. We became
aware Of the fact that a poor fellow f
our own was lying g%rievously wound /
near tt Federal side of the fifty yards
that separated our works from the
cnemy's. He had been lying there
through all tn. long, fierce summer
day. The explosion at daylight had
cast him there. His groans and his
cries for help and for water were pite-
Gus in the extreme. We listened to
them heart-brokcn, but helpless-all
but 81 Tucker.
Isl begun stripping eff his clothes
we thought he had gone mad. But
when we asked him why he was strip
ping himself he replied Never you
mind With that, stripped to the
skin, he leaped over the works, duckcd
his head low, and ran through that
hailstorm Of bullets to where the
wounded man lay. Grasping him
quickly, he slung him upon his back
like a bag of meal and ran back with
all his might. AS he crossed the
works he fell headlong. The surgeon
found three bullets in his body. No
body in the battery cvcr remembered
after that that 81 Tucker had once
been a coward. After all, it is, per-
haps, mainly a question Of nerves"

Gold Ont OF Sen Water.

Thirteen cones of bullion, each about
l ~ inches high, and the whole weigh
ing 90 1-5 ounces, reached the United
States assay Office in this city yester-
day from the Electrolytic Marine Salts
Company of Boston and North Lubec,
Me-, the last-named place being where
the company plant is. This plant is
designed for the extraction of gold and
silver from sea water, and a letter from
Arthur B. Ryan, president Of the
company, which accompanied the bull
lion, said that the cones were compos-
ed of gold and silver that had been re-
covered from sea water by the compa-
ny's process. He said that about me
third of the consignment he believed
to be gold, two of silver to one gold
being about the proportion found. He
directed that the proceeds il. gold from
the assay be sent to mis- company in
cash, but that the silver obtained be
forwarded by express in the form of a
brick. Weigh Clerk S. II. Graham
expects to be able to state the result
of the assay early next week.
That a Maine company had been
formed, with a reported capital of $50
900, to endeavor to obtain gold and
silver from sea water has been known
for some-weeks, but this is. the first
tangible evidence to reach this city of
the company operations. Mining men
who where questioned yesterday were
not disposed to be nervous over the
situation. They united II cene!.s;en;
that the Importance Of the Maine ven
turc rested entirely upon the proper
ton that the expenses may bear to the
product.
DR.. Henry Wurtz Of this city. form
crly chemical examiner of the United
States patent Office, demonstrated thir-
ty years ago the existence of gold and
silver in sea water. Owing to the mi
mute quantities in which they are held
i'll solution, their recovery as a bust
ness proposition has, however, gener-
ally heretofore been looked upon as i'm
practicable. -Nep York. SIN.

which has always prevailed IN the Is
land. As the revolution was agalns.
Spanish power. the coastlng privileges
should not be specially enjoyed by yes-
sells BIZ VESSELS under the Spanish Gag.
To enable residents OF Cuba who have
hitherto employed Spanish vessels 10
continue in the coastlng trade, the reg
ulations permit such owners TO COM
tinue trade on making the customary
renuneintlon OF allegiance. While the
military occupation Is In force. Ameri-
can vessels win frequently be needed to
bring about normal trade conditions
and for this period accordingly Amerl-
can vessels may engage In the coast
Ing trade. without prejudice. however,
to any different regulation which Gu
ban government may hereafter estab-
Ilsh. Foreign nations are not assisting
the United States In the military occn'
patton OF Cuba. and have no title there
fore TO engage IN the trade.
AS there is no recognized Cuban
government and no recognized Cuban
