The Rebel Yell, Junior.
The American army has adopted th

The American army has adopted the
rebel yell.
The famous war cry Of the Confed-
eracy is alive to-day, but it is the boys
in blue who. unlimber their vocal
chords and search like a lot Of old
rebels as they dash to the charge.
The men of Massachusetts yell just
as Justify as the men south OF the
Mason and Dixon line. In fact, the
northern troops, and particularly those
from New York, seem to place great
confidence in the horrible screech. The
roar and rousing cheer which en-
couraged the boys Of 81, who were
battling for the preservation Of the
Union, seems to live in memory only.
1t has been succeeded by the blood
curdling yell which the wearers of the
ragged jackets" made heard far above
the howl Of the she'll, and roar Of the
cannon or the bark of the musket. In
'98 the old rebel yell is heard again.
1t is not generally known that yell
ing when the charge is on is pre-
scribed in the army regulations.
''When from thirty to fifty yards
from the enemy emit a yell, saith
the drill book, and the yell that fills
the air is the plain old-fashioned
rebel Y-Yo-Yo-Wo-Wo! The
New Workers turn loose fearful yell
when they charge, and the Fifth regl-
ment Of Maryland lets go an even more
dangerous howl. The sound is nothing
of the nature Of cheer. 1t is a'wiid,
unearthly cross between screech and
yell that is calculated not only to
strike terror to the enemy, but to en-
courage our own boys. The yell is sup
posed to put the finishing touches to
the enemy. The Americans in their
charge, having covered all but about
thirty yards Of the distance until the
Spaniards are reached, dash forward
from double-quick to mad rush,
yelling wildly, for the triple purpose Of
encouraging each other and confusing
and terrorizing the enemy.
There is not question Of doubt that
the battle cry Of the American army
is the ssrebel yell' of old, and its
adoption by the boys in blue is a
great compliment to the men who set
it to music Of bullets thirty-seven
years ago.
The Fifth took to the yell most nat
urally. There are men in the command
who s'sang in the choir" Of 81 and
who are delighted to hear the revival
Of the old but never-to-be-forgotten
melody"
{ Capt. Lee Goldsborough, OF 10. i,
says the yell, junior, is real thing,
and is of the opinion that it is the
sweetest music" he ever heard.
When the order to the charge is
given the men start forward at a
double-quick. Then as the enemy's
line is neared, the squirt begins, the
yell is given and all is over, perhaps.
During every skirmish drill scores Of
men may be seen rushing over the hot
sands against an imaginary foe, yell
ing like wild. The yell, it is hoped,
will prove very effective against the
Spaniards, who by this time have
heard it, and understand that it is
backed up by a line of cold steel man
ipulated by muscular American arms

A Belle who Danced with Lincoln.

The Inner Experiences of Cabinet
Members Wife" is one of the most in
teresting contributions to the current
Ladies' Home Journal. In a series of
letters the wife of a cabinet member
writes to her sister of office-seekers and
of those in the departments. You can
have no idea," she anonymously de-
slares, how Henry cher husband) Is
prosecuted by applicants for his influ-
ence with the president or with the
heads Of departments. He really has
no influence outside of his own depart
ment, and he is wearing his sympathies
into tatters listening TO tales of woe.
The saddest case that has come under
my own observation is that of a maiden
lady, fully fifty years old, who has
worked in the departments ever since
the war. Senatorial influence has kept
her in all these years, but now that the
civil service reforms are being intro
duced she is in despair, for, although
perfectly competent in her work, she
never in the world could pass one OF
those rigid examinations. She called
upon me bearing a letter of introduce
ton from Mrs. Arthur Folsom MARY
Allison), who married into one Of the
old families here. don't know wheth
er her family lost their means by the
war or in some other way, but they did
lose everything when she was a gay
girl at the top Of society in both Alex
andria and Washington. She told me
about dancing in a set of lanciers OPP
posite Abraham Lincoln. who, though
awkward and angular in his dancing.
seemed to enjoy it. and always had
gay word for everybody. She says her
feeling for Mr.. Lincoln was something
more than respect; it was more like
alteration; that she has often wondered
if people did not. feel just so toward the
great religious prophets, who must
have spread abroad what Mr.. Lincoln
did-an atmosphere of sympathetic
kindness, trust, purity and nobility"

da, Western Canada, before taking up
their home there visited the coun-
try as delegates. They reported to
the Government of the Dominion of
Canada the result OF their observations,
and from this report extracts have
been taken, which are published below:
I'VE have visited a number of most
desirable locations, and are highly
pleased with the country as a whole,
1t being beyond our highest eXpecta-
lions. We find here a prosperous and
well-contented lot of people. They
have comfortable homes, and their vast
helds OF wheat and other crops in addi-
ton TO their herds Of choice cattle, in
dictate prosperity in the full sense Of
the word. In conversation with the
farmers throughout our trip we learned
that the majority of them came here
with very limited means, and some
with no more than enough to
bring them here, and they are now
well-to-do. They all claim that this is
the only country for a poor man, or
one with little means, to get a start
and make home for himself and fam
lily. AS you are aware, We were
little shaky and undecided before leav-
ing Detroit, but have determined since
that we, with our friends, will make
this country our future home. 1t is
Tar from being the wilderness we had
pictured it to be; it is, instead, land
having all the facilities required by
modern civilization, such as railroads,
markets, stores, churches, schools, etc,
IN fact, an ideal home for those having
the future welfare OF themselves and
families at heart"
The Messrs. Striovski selected the
Alameda district, but what they say
or 1t applies in a general way to most
other districts in that vast country.
They speak Of the fuel, which is to be
had in great quantities, of the water
that can be had by digging from 10 to
20 feet, and of the good grazing land
to be had almost everywhere. There is
plenty Of wood for building timber and
for fuel, while coal is convenient, and
sells at low prices at the mines. II
driving through the country they
passed may fine patches of wild rasp-
berries, and say they can speak highly
of their flavor, as they could not resist
the temptation to stop and eat.
Having already transgressed on your
valuable space, | shall defer further
reference to Western Canada for an
other issue. An illustrated pamphlet
recently issued by the Department of
the Interior, Ottawa, Canada, giving a
complete description of the country,
will be forwarded free TO all who write
for it. Yours,
WESTERN CANADA.

Poor John brown.

John Brown belongs to that rare
class of men whose names grow
with history. His life commanded re-
spect and honor. His death was
marked by a singular pathos, sad
ness that won the sympathy of the
people. Excepting Lincoln and Grant
he remains to-day the best remem-
bered man of half century. "They
hung him up between heaven and
