letters the last desperate struggle Of
the third day Of July, 1863, would un-
doubtedly have been put in some other
place or had Lee accepted Longstreet's
advice, as | remember it-and with
drawn under the cover of darkness on
the night of the second, what differ
ence it would have made il history.
But that is only speculation. Still
as stood on Round Top, I could not
help thinking Of the vast change 8
which would have resulted had Lee
succeeded in accomplishing his pur-
poses. There was England covertly
aiding til south, only awaiting de-
cisive victory to openly offer her recog-
milton. Russia under sealed orders,
was standing off the coast of New
foundland, while France awaited in
Mexico, was ready to advance into
lower California as soon as
victory perched on the banners of the
confederates. What q terrible mix up
of affairs would have resulted and
what stupendous international conflicts
would have ensued. But Lee failed.
Numbers nor generalship were not
sufficient to oppose the stubborn deter
mination of the federal force and 80
there was Chickamauga, Atlanta and
the coast, and finally Appomattox. This
was the key to the whole situation
and one almost uncovers in the atmos-
phere of sacredness which seems to
hang over the scene of that terrible
carnage and it casts new luster on
the uniforms we are now wearing,
touches our hearts with q new patriot
ism as we measure the great sacrifice
the Nation made to render possible the
present great struggle to raise the
worlds standard Of humanity and es-
tsblish the great American policy,
where ignorance has made slavery the
only aim in life.
You perhaps know that we will leave
here soon, going either directly to
Cuba or to some place in the south.
Our corp goes first to Cuba. It will
stay there only q few months and then
be relieved by another, when it will be
returned to the United States and I
presume our career as soldiers will be
ended, for I presume at that time we
will be mustered out. That, at least
is the latest from the war department.
The regiment is getting quite healthy
again. Am feeling first-rate myself.

NEWULM 90. ROBBER.
His Attempt to Sell the Stamps
Gave Him Away.

The New Ulm postofice robber, re-
Gently captured at St. Louis, was taken
to Chicago from St. Louis last week,
where he was held to the United
States grand jury for indictment. A
St. Louis paper OF recent date gives
the following account OF the apprehen-
sion:
"The charge against Stevens is at
tempting to dispose of stolen stamps:
The amount he attempted to dispose
of was $6O4.65 worth. On September
I'D he sent valise containing the
stamps to the firm of Montgomery
Ward & Co. at Wabash and Washing
ton avenue. Chicago, and asked them to
buy the stamps at discount of 25 per
cent. He also ordered bill of goods,
consisting of two revolvers, chisels and
braces and bits. These we're to be
sent to him in st. Louis, but he gave
no address. He wanted the. Chicago
firm to write to him and let him know
how the goods would be delivered.
The letter was to be sent to the gen.
eral delivery.
Fearing that everything was not all
right, the members of the Chicago firm
called on Inspector Mayer and told
him of the occurrence. He examined
the contents of the valise and found it
contained 1914 in 1c, 1924 Sc in &c,
$l.75 in &c, $13O5 in SC, $l8.4O in SC
and $12.7O in 1Oc stamps. All we're
new and looked as though they had
just been taken from some postoMce.
The records were looked over, but In
spector Mayer could find no report
from any postof6ce in his district
where that number of stamps had been
taken. He then decided to come to
St. Louis and run Stevens down. Be-
fore he left, however, he made arrange
ments with Montgomery Ward & Co.
to send a letter to Stevens so that it
would reach St. Louis Thursday morn
ing The clerk in charge of the "S'
window was told to give signal when
Stevens asked for his letter Every
thing worked we'll, and the man was
taken completely by surprise. The
Inspector had waited over four hours
to arrest Stevens.
Stevens is SO years old, and was
dressed in black coat and vest, brown
trousers, dark flannel shirt and black
Fedora hat. He would not answer
any questions put to him by Inspector
Mayer when first arrested, but yester-
day said he was formerly a miner and
was born in Sibley, Ford County, Ill.
Further than that he would not tell
anything about himself or how he
came into possession of the stamps"
The denominations of stamps offered
to Montgomery Ward & Co. are pre-
cisely what we're taken from the New
Ulm posto@ce, only the amount Of
fered the Chicago firm was 1904,
while the amount stolen here was

pronounced it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be constitutional disease, and.
therefore, requires constitutional treatment.

REFLECTIN6 ON OTHER DAYS.
From Little Round TOP Asa Brooks
Sees the Battle Again.

VI AittA0 1eOuuN AOP, O0olO0 Uu0 StoIuo
of General Warren. on the famous
battle field of Gettysburg, on last
Sunday. I cannot describe the sensa-
ton which came over me as I looked
out over the rocky defiles and steep
hillside that lead down to the Valley
of Death and DEVILS Den, where
waged so fercely the contest which
decided the fate of nation and turned
the tide of war.
To the west, the Blue Ridge noun
tsins stretch off beyond the celebrated
Seminary Ridge, behind which the
confederates formed. The scheme of
the whole battle, as one sees it from
the spot on which I stood, is admir-
able indeed and shows the work of
fine generalship. A more impregnable
fortifcation cannot be found than this
spot. It is superior to Mission Ridge
or even Lookout Mountain. It is
nothing but rocks and the side is still
terraced with breastworks remaining
intact through all the years which
have passed since Lee and his army
left for the south, after his victorious
defeat. I say victorious, for believe
the federals were as glad to haYe him
quit as he was to quit. Knowing the
fastness of the mountains and the
strength and courage of Lees troop
and the much smaller force he had to
oppose him, it is no wonder to me that
Hooker refused to lead the Army of
the Potomac to what proved, as he
said it would, terrific slaughter, if not
defeat. How much easier it would
have been had Gen. Meade had the
troops from Harpers Ferry under
Gen. French to have intercepted
Pickett or turned his flank.
There is much to be seen, but every
thing is marked and student of his
tory soon ge:s his bearings and recog-
nizes the places of interest. was
most interested in following up the
I'd Corps and locating the position of
the LIST Minnesota in the famous
charge that broke the line of Pickett's
brigade. I was surprised in the lay
of the land. I had been under the
impression that the place was a steep
declivity, but it is only a gradual slope
down to ravine, but how Pickett
ever succeeded in getting his men over
the broad fields intervening I can't
understand. It must have been q
magnificent charge. I am proud that
the State has a fitting memorial erected
here-the finest on the ground, and it
is with pleasure note the fact that we
are brigaded in the same army corps
wearing the same clover leaf hat.
1t is hard to appreciate the cond:-
tons which prevailed at that time and
harder to realize that over 100000
men contended in so deadly struggle
for the mastery of those twenty-five
acres of land. Had Lee only known
that Stuart's cavalry, his own, bad met
defiant and would not be able to CO.
operate with him, or had he not been
deceived by the lull in the firing of
artillery as the federals paused to let
their guns cool before opening fire on
Pickett, thinking the federals had run
out of ammunition, and caused Pickett
to make premature charge, the mag
