Such a manly fellow" said some one
as he came into the room.
The church parlors were brilliantly
lighted and the social promised to be one
of the most successful of the season.
The young man who had just entered
was Of medium height, his hair was
neither dark nor light, his eyes were Of
an indefinite color. He was neither slen-
der nor stout. In fact, he was what one
might term decidedly commonplace; and
yet there was something in his CHEEKY
face and bright manner which made you
look at him the second time.
A little group Of elderly spinsters was
near the door. "Good evening, ladies" ;"
he cried, in tone of unmistabale pleas
ure.
Then how those prim old ladies smiled
and bowed and hastened to tell him the
bit of news that interested her most. Miss
Sarah was recovering from her rheuma-
tism, Miss Marthas neuralgia had almost
prevented her coming. Miss Melissa ex-
pected a. visit from her only brother.
Each was listened to with the greatest
attention and interest.
A moment later our young friend had
spied out rather forlorn and lonely lit
tie figure in quiet corner. Poor Ethel
Wait was so eager on securing an edu-
cation and rise above her poor surround
ings that she sacrificed everything, even
personal adornment, Of which she was
very fond. And so she felt shabby and
unappreCiated and sat there wishing she
had not come.
Good evening, Miss Ethel" a merry
voice recalled her from her reverie.
Come, come, if you keep thinking so
deeply in school and out of school you
will become regular owl. You looked
as wise as Socrates, just now. Do be So
cial and condescend to inspire common,
ordinary mortal with desire for wis
dom. What are you studying, now"
and before she knew it, Ethel had proved
herself to be an animated conversation
alist. When he left her she glanced
through the little volume Of Andrew Muir
ray that he had left with her, and then
seeing old Mrs. Peters sitting by herself
she felt impelled to go over and talk with
her, and she began to feel very glad that
she had come.
A merry, frivolous girl next claimed
the young man. Poor child! she had ca
pabilities for good, but was allowed to
run wild by her adoring parents.
Miss Helen, you are very gay this.

gray eye, though now faded and washed
with tears. Over it dropped the heavy lid,
which, when fully raised, as it was when
she spoke to a group of children who stood
near. showed an eye still lovely, both in its
shape and expression. Her delicate features
retained their fine molding, though the chin
was. perhaps. a trifie more rounded, but the
rose tints had departed and left in their
place complexion smooth indeed, but un-
mistakably sallow. The Empress at this
time was dressed in heavy black. A long
hooded cloak fell almost to the bottom of
her skirt, which was, in turn, exception
ally short while boots and gloves both
showed the marks of wear. But little of the
fine gray hair appeared beneath her round
hat. about which was fastened common
gauze veil. Yet neither years, nor dress, nor
rheumatism could conceal the elegance OF
her gait. Every movement was graceful,
and she returned the salutations of those

dignity of an EMPRESS"

That is not music. Every weed OF thine,
Pressed rightly, flows in aromatic wine,
And every humble hedgerow flower that grows,

A loving word to every living thing
Albeit it holds the message unawares.

Vague outlines of the everlasting thought

"A Stampede in Camp at Tampa.

WASHINGTON, June 16.-A special
to the Post from Tampa says: At 10
clock tonight 1900 horses and mules
broke from their corrals and stampeded
through the camps of Gen. Carpenter s
brigade. It was 50 dark and the
excitement was so great in the District
of Columbia camp that it was impos-
sible to learn if any men were hurt.
The panic among the men was terrible.
Officers tried to get their companies
into line, but the army Of wild horses
made that impossible. Many men
began shooting at the excited animals,
but this only excited them more. 1t
seems impossible to stop the stampede
tonight. The horses seemed to be
attracted by the tents, and they rush
ed through the brigade of three regi-
ments and then back again, taking a
different course each time. They
have already destroyed many tents,
kitchen and camping Raraphernalia.
1t is not known what started the
animals on their wild rush. Taps had
just sounded in all the camps, and the
bands had played their good-nights.
The men were hardly asleep, when a
loud cracking, like the fire of Gatling
gun, startled them. 1t was the break
ing down of the corral fence, a high
wooden affair. In the next moment
the excited and panting.horses rushed
into the New York camp, which was
nearest the break in the fence. The
rush sounded like thunder storm.
The New York camp sentinels began
to yell like mad men: Call out the
guards p "Cail out the guards'
The guard hurried out, but it was
useless, as the animals were then
rushing over everything in their path.
In half an hour the camps had been
stampcded several times, and there
seemed to be no hope Of driving the
beasts away from the beach. Forty
men were mounted by II o clock, and
they were able to check the rush some
little, or, at least, to steer the horses
from the camp.

nothing beyond filling the organiza-
tion now in the service.

as soon as possible. The news was
received with rejoicing by the men,
and they are taking more interest than
ever in drilling so as to be in readi-
ness when the time comes to move.
Messrs. Fl. G. Daggett, T. Page and
Milledge Bonham were transferred
from Company H to Company G on
Friday last. These gentlemen re-
eeived cordial welcome from the
men, and I am sure will be credit to
the Company.
Company G has been honored in the
appointment of Private j. B. Dodd to
the position Of Regimental Bugler.
1t has rained almost every day since
Sunday last, and these rains have laid
the dust and cooled the atmosphere
until it is pleasure to drill.
Our Regimental Band now compares
favorably with any band at Camp
Thomas, and the music it dispenses
each morning and evening is much
enjoyed by the men in camp.
Capt. H H. Watkins is i'll with a
slight attack of malarial fever, but it
is hoped will soon recover.
Quartermaster johnson has estab-
lished Company store at the end OF
our street, and has stocked it with
peanuts, syrup and other things to
sell to the soldiers, the profits to go
to the Company fund.
On Friday evening Lieut.. Grant
commanded Company G at brigade
drill and acquitted himself with all
the skill and ease of veteran COM
marder, and the members OF tne Oom-
pany were complimented for the quick
ness and precision with which they
obeyed the commands.

Ready to Land.

WASHINGTON, June 20.-It is stated
officially that there is now no doubt
hat General Skaters military expe-
dition has arrived safely off Santiago
by this time.
1t is not admitted that advices to
that effect have been received, but it
is presumed that the war officials
speak from knowledge.
According to the plans arranged for
the debarkation, the fleet of transports
is to lie in safe place until Sampson
has cleared the way for a landing.
The selection of the landing place
has been left entirely to the judgment
of Admiral Sampson and General
Shafter. the military commander, and
the first business in order, upon the
arrival Of the transport feet off Santi-
ago would be, it is said, war council
between Admiral Sampson and some
of his naval captains on the one hand
and Major General Shafter and his
staff on the other, the purpose being
to SeCLle all Cuc utGdilo VI VIC VOUoih
alton. Meanwhile the feet of trans
ports would lay at sea at least ten
miles beyond the blockading squadron
in order to be entirely safe from attack
by Spanish torpedo boats.
A great deal depends on the point
selected for the landing. 1t was
thought that Aguadores, to the east Of
MORO, about six or eight miles, would
be likely landing in view of the fact
that it has wharf, the property of a"
iron ore company, which would be
extremely useful for landing the heavy
supplies and ordnance OF the siege
trains. 1t is reported now, however,
that this particular wharf has bee"
commenced by Spanish batteries.
which have been so placed as to give
an cniiading fire upon it. If this be
- then the batteries must first b.
silenced.

Straight From Gomez.

New York, June 18-Capt. Rafael
Conte of the Cuban army has arrived
at the headquarters of the Cuban jun
Ia of this city with dispatches from
Gen. Gomez. He was accompanied by
a lieutenant of the army of liberation.
Capt. Conte and his companion left
Gomez in Las Villas. The general
then had'with him body guard Of only
so men-a cavalry escort. There was
little food in the region where Gomez
was making his headquarters, so he
did not mass any large number of men
there, but spread them over a large
extent of territory aud directed their
movements from his headquarters.
He has all the necessary arrange
ments made for the concentration Of
the troops when the proper time comes,
but keeps them scattered and employ
ed in guerrilla warfare IN the mean
time SO that they may find food.
The captain claims that Gomez can
concentrate 10000 armed men in a
short time at any p lint where it is de.
sirable. There are several thousand
more men who are attached toGomez's $
army, and are only waiting for arms
to be available for defensive or often
sige operations.
Ina skirmish with gucrillas about
three weeks ago Gomez was wounded
in the left arm by Mauser bullet.
The wound healed quickly, however, in
spite of the generals advanced age,
and when the captain left headquar-
ters the old chief was able to use his
arm as we'll as before he was hit.
