NEARLY TWICE AS GREAT.

Comparison of Death Rate Among
Soldiers Of the Civil War and that
of 1898 Shows that the Former was
the Largest.
Washington, Nov. 22.-Charles Smart,
deputy surgeon general of the army,
has sent the following communication
to Surgeon General Sternberg, COM
pairing the deaths from sickness in the
war with Spain and in the civil war:
'In reply to your inquiry | can state
that sickness and mortality during the
war with Spain was not relatively so
great as that from which our volunteer
troops suffered during the civil war.
According to the testimony of every
medical officer who has placed himself
on record then and now, we lost in the
five months of the war with Spain 1921
men out of every 1000 reported present
by medical officers serving with them,
and in the first five months of the re-
bellion 1871 out of every 1000 SINH
larly reported present.
I'm August last the country became
excited over the utterances of yellow
journalism with 4.OS deaths per thou
sand, and the morale of the army be-
came broken by making the volunteer
believe that never in the history of
armies had men suffered from disease
as he and his companions had suffered.
Yet 81 years ago the flower of the man
hood of this country, after months of
deadly losses, suffered in April, 1862,
more than twice the loss incurred in
August last, and instead of going home
on sick furlough they girded up their
loins for the attack on Richmond, by
way of the peninsula.

FIRE IS RAGING.
Portion of the Ozark Range OF Noun
tnins in Missouri n Mass
of Flames.

st. Louis, Nov. 21.-A special to the
Republic from Macomb, Mo-, says: The
largest and most destructive contiagra-
tion that has ever swept the Ozark
mountains since 1884 is now circum-
scribing this town for miles and miles
north of and parallel with the Memphis
railroad. The autumn heavy foliage
has rapidly fallen since frost, and is
supposed to have been fired from sparks
of freight engines. A scope of country
13 miles long is in flames, miles of
fences, orchards, plantations, farms
and dry pasture fields, stocked with cat
tie and other animals, and many old
settlers homes lie directly in the line
of the ravaging monster, while neigh
borhoods are advancing TO the scene,
but find themselves totally unable to
check the flames, their only remedy is
to hurriedly turn out stock ahead of the
flames and desert premises. The alti-
tude being 1,7G0 feet above the sea and a
terrible. wind prevailing,
great destruction is imminent. The
town of Macomb will probably be de-
stroyed.

DAWSON CITY IN WINTER.
An Interesting Picture of the Prepa-
ratlons Made for Cold Weather i'm
the KlOndike Metropolis.

Washington, Nov. 2a.-In report
dated Dawson City, October l, Consul
Cook presents an interesting picture of
the Klondike town preparing to go
into winter quarters. Large quanti-
ties of logs were being piled in front
of business and other houses to serve
for fuel, and small fortunes were being
made by parties who were bringing in
glass and oil lamps. Butter was sell
ing at 81 a pound and the price of con-
densed milk and other products had
doubled.
1t was predicted that 5000 people
would be working through the differ
ent creeks in the Dawson district on
the winter diggings, beginning in the
middle of November. The bench and
hillside claims were receiving more at
tention, and it was expected that their
product this year would exceed that of
the creek claims. The consul says that
now is a good time for capital to step
in, as there is no doubt of the country
being very rich, but money is needed

troubled over the order Prepare to
mount"
Now, if Jake had stood on chair he
could not have reached the stirrup with
his foot. He was equal to the emcr
gency, however, and, running back n
few steps, picked up a board, placed one
end on the ground and the other on the
horse, and crawled up.
This performance was greeted with
a roar of cheers and laughs. But Jake
was in his seat as soon rs many others
who had stittish horses, What do
you mean, SIR" questioned the officer,
''by that kind of performance" We'll,
you say Prepare to mount" und
makes mine preparations. l can no step
upstairs on mine horse NIT one step"
When there was sllirmish, two men
assisted Jake to mount, and he was gen
orally away with the rest, but on one
occasion he dropped his gun, as the as
tonishing gallop of the old horse de-
1handed his full attention, and the men,
seeing the little fellow go off with a
tumble, thought he had been shot.
Jake was given up for lost. But a
short time afterward up came the big
horse at furious gallop, Jake hanging
on to mis- neck. The men cheered and
laughed, stopped the horse, and assisted
Jake into the saddle. Once in his seat,
Jake said:
Ven der vas no time to make mine
preparations to mount it was uncon-
yenient a little, but mine big horse vas
n goer, and that vas mighty convenient
for me ven 1 vas been chased by the
Johnnies. So ochslluse me if not trade

TOUCHED A MATCH TO GEN. SHER-
IDAN'S CIGAR.

bacco factory the previous day. While
he waited the cigar was made for him
and he put it away carefully and smiled
u contented little smile. SIS
So Gen. Grant, with deep. happy sigh
of relief, touched n match to Gen. Sher-
idan's cigar, and Sheridan--he Jagged
and gyrated like n bad little boy who
has put n tack on his teachers chair.
1t took little time for the strongest
cigar ever made in Cuba to get in its
deadly work upon a well-seasoned old
smoker like Grant, and Sheridan began
to grow Respondent, but JOY once more
suffused his rugged yet rubicund fea-
lures as he saw his old commander,
with a pallid face, talking hurriedly
with the interpreter, n funny mixture
of English and West Point Spanish, and
moment later he collapsed in the
shade of wall. There was instant
alarm among all who gathered around
and even the jolly Sheridan got bit
ratified at his own success, but he only
winled solemnly at the secretary and
said: Tell 'em to keep quiet and give
him air. He'll be all right In five min
utes. / thought it would fetch him"
Grant was, indeed, all right as soon
as he got up among the jumble of de-
fenses at the top of Moro Castle, where
the cool sea winds blew some of that
nicotine out of his lungs, and he gazed
ut Sheridan with deep indigo look Of
suspicion, but he smoked no more until
the next morning.--N. Y. Sun. LA

F, JAKE's HORSE.
A short Cavnlrymnn Who Had n
Preference for n Tall
Mount.

The fellows in the old union army
who had the most fun with horses,
said an old cavalryman, were those in
regiments of mounted infantry. When
they were first mounted they were ex-
pected to ride only to place and do
their fighting on foot.
In distributing horses, "a little, short
legged German secured the largest
horse in the drove. He selected horse
for its size, thinking very little of IS
own convenience in the matter, and it
was amusing 10 see JAKE nuttering
about his horse. One morning the boys
were ordered to bring their horses out
and get ready for march. Jake was
troubled when all were ordered to dis
mount for instructions. He was more
