AN UNPLEASANT SOUND.

short Story OF the Civil War Told by m
Old Soldier.
Il was certainly more or less scared a
number of times when was In the army, "
said an old soldier-"in fact, think sol
diering in time of war Is more or less
harassing occupation anyway, but never
was any more scared than was once for
minute by something that had nothing to
do with fighting whatever. This hap
pened once when was on picket In Vir-
ginia. The post was In piece of woods.
1t was bad enough in the daytime, but at
night, when you couldn't see anything at
all, 1t was worse 1t seemed as though it
got darker and darker and stilier and
stiller, and it seemed as though it would
never end.
Suddenly it was busted wide open by
the awfulest sound ever heard. Scaredr
Wolff ....,s . ,
IF you've ever felt the feeling that a
man has before he actually gets under fire,
when he's lying back somewhere in reserve
and pretty safe, but hearing the crackle
up ahead, and seeing the wounded brought
back, and thinking that pretty soon he's
got to go in himself, why, you know what
it is to have one of the most unpleasant
feelings man ever had, but there you
know what's coming. This came with a
shock think it was the worst scare /
ever had. 1t came right out OF the air
square overhead and close, too, where !
hadn't been looking for anything, the
fright fullest, most unearthly sound ever
heard and all l could do was to stand
there i'm the black dark and wait. A min
ute later it came again. What tremen
dous relief A screech owl! I'D never
heard one before, but knew now what it
was. New York Sun.

CLEARING THE WRECKAGE.
Rapid Preparations for Repairing the
Damage Done by Fire TO the
National Capitol.

Washington. Nov. 9.-The work of
clearing the capitol of the wreckage
of Sundays fire is being carried for
ward rapidly by a large force of work
men. The heavy stone arch under the
file room of the United States supreme
court had been settling steadily for
two days, and it was decided ycster-
day to tear it out and rebuild this sec
ton of the masonry. 1t is Il difficult
operation, however, as the room above
is loaded with the valuable old rec
ords of the supreme court. which may
be dumped in ineNtricable confusion
if the sustaining arch is removed.
Boat hooks will be used to draw the
files from the room, as it is considered
dangerous to enter the room. and the
rebuilding of the arch will hen pro-
coed. Assistant Architect Wood has
made an examination confirming his
first view that the main foundations
of the capitol are uniniured.
