The Answer.

The Whelps Of the Lion answer him.
Recent anonymous poem in English paper.
The old lion stands in his lonely lair;
The noise of the hunting has broken his
rest
He scowls to the Eastward tiger and bear
Are marrying his jungle; he turns to the
West;
And sends through the lnurk and mist of
the night,
4 thunder that rumbles and rolls down
the trail:
And tiger and bear, the quarry in sight,
Crouch low in the covert, and cover and
quail;
For deep through the night gloom, like surf
on a shore,
Peals thunder i'll answer, resounding with
ire;
The hunters turn stricken: they know the
dread roar:
The whelp of the lion is joining his sire.

Midsummer.

Where meadow-liles in the grasses toss,
Met by the undulant zephyr passing by,
Close to a deep, cool copse, where rocks and
moss
With leafy vines in wild profuson lie.
l sit and watch the gurgling brook defy
The torrid heat, with murmurs of cool
sound,
No longer citytired for l have found
Surcease from the turmoil of tramped
streets,
Among sweet hooks and dryad-f formed re-
treats,
Where some shy flower, filling a hidden
place,
Lifts up it's smiling, heavenly patterned
face.
Here, from the sordid world to sit apart,
And breathe rich scents whose sweetness
cannot pail;
To note a distant bird-songs tremulous
fall,
And greet the squirrel, strong in pulse and
heart,
Is more than jubilee or carnival.

the grim ranks stood at bay in the deadly
thicket. The air was filled with the
crackle and smoke Of the burning under
brush, the heartrending sobs, cries and
means of the wounded, the clash of
musketry, and the yells of command.
But above this, above the exultant cry
Of the enemy, there rose the blood firing
chorus; "The Union forever, hurrah,
boys, hurrah"' and gave many fanting
heart new life.
And now, not face to face, but side by
side, North and South will sound the
''Battle Cry of Freedom" and to the
strains of Marching through Georgia"
they will sound new song of LAS We
Go Marching Through Cuba" And
though we will have new songs to float
over the swell OF the ocean, other words
will bring new life to the old melody.

A Warning to Travellers

The colonel was naturally politeness
itself, and as we drove along the Ar
kansas highway in a buggy he bowed
to all the men and lifted his hat to
the females we met on the long days
ride. The men mostly looked at him
IN a puzzled way. and It was evident
that the majority of the females were
indignant. About noon we came to a
creek two feet deep flowing over the
road, and sitting on log ard gazing
at the swollen stream was a woman
about 50 years old, with fresh coon.

She seemed dazed and put out, but

across. AS she got down on the other

her good day, and she stood stock still!

and the leader said:

and blacked his eyes and broke his

saddle of horse and Hope ordered to
mount him and ride off with message.
The horse kicked and buckci for five

12AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

There were occasions, as we lay in
front ct Petersburg, when Gen. Grant
went strolling about by himself, and as
he never wore any insignia of rank it
was hard to tell him from any other
officers. had been in one of the rifle
pits with comrade for 16 hours, and
as we finally crept back along the ditch
and reached the federal tprks we found
the relief standing there and ready to
take our places. With them was Gen.
Grant, but looking SO dirt-stained and
shabby that we took him for no greater
man than a captain.
To get into or out of one of the rife
pits on the front one had to creep on
his stomach, and once in the pit not a
finger could be lifted without drawing
the fire of dozen sharpshooters.
Grant asked if it was hot out there,
and my comrade hunted about for his
pipe and replied:
Say. Cap. you look as if you could
put two and two together" 3
Il think / can" replied cap"
We'll. then, you take two h-lls
and add two more to 'em and you'll get
what's out there. Haven't got match
about your clothes, have you?"
The general produced his match box
and sprung back the lid and extended
1t, and at the same time asked if the
enemy seemed to be very busy.
"Busy!" shouted the private in re-
ply. Say, old man, wig don't you try
cne o them pits for yourself for about
an hour? If you don't find the busiest
lot of Johnnies over there you ever run
across then you hain't got no hair to
stand on end. Mebbe you are banker
In after new experience?"
N-o, not particularly" replied
Grant, as a lot of dirt from a "high"
bullet rained down on his hat.
Then I'd advise you to get back and
stay back. If you are curious to know
what 'h-ll and repeat means I'll come
around to your tent and write it out
for you for plug of tobacco"
Grant smiled and smoked and
watched the relief crawling up the
ditch, and rs we made for our quarters
we met one of his staff looking him up.
1t was probably the only bit of advice
he got from private soldier during the
war.

A Funny Man Wanted.

We had in our company a private
named Baker, who could tell funny
story SO funnily that none of the men
around him had show to get home
sick. At second Bull Run he became
panic-stricken and bolted, and for this
he was afterwards brought before a
court-martial. Bakers description of
how a sudden fear came upon him
how he found his hair crawling up and
his knees knocking together, while his
chattering teeth were biting away at
the end of his tongue, was said by a
member of the court to be the funniest
thing he ever listened to. He told of
his f1ight-bow he seemed to have
wings-how lie ran into and knocked
down fat major-hcw he whirled a
mule end to end and frightened band
Into running away-aEd his looks,
voice and gestures upset the dignity of
the court and FASTENED verdict 1t
was serious charge and merited
heavy punishment, but Baker got off
with few days in the guardhouse.
month later we had sharp little
hight between outposts, and in addition
to our killed we had dozen wounded
men. There was a surgeon with us, but
owing to some accident or blunder he
had no anesthetic with him. A troop
er's arm had been so shattered that
amputation was necessary, and he was
asked if he thought he could stand 1t
without chloroform. II not, he would
have to be sent about 12 miles in an
ambulance. He thought it over for
minute and then replied:
Just find out whether Baker is all
right, and then I'll tell YOU"
Inquiries were made and Baker was
found to be unhurt. Then the wound
ed man said:
IF Baker will show up and tell me
one OF his funny stories you caa go
anead and chop the old arm, off and
have done with it,
The story teller was soon on hand.

and made the effort of his life. Fifty

Working out of the Army.

WORKING Gut OF the Army.
After the first two or three battles
men began to discover that war was
not picnic. and as 4 result a certain
per cent. of officers as well as of the
rank and file began to lay plans to get
out with honor. Few officers dared for
cate from the surgeon, and as for an
enlisted man, he had to be sharper than
fox to produce any ailment to battle
those who must sign his application.
rheumatism was a favorite complaint
fer awhile. but when it would work no
longer and men with liver complaint
and consumption were stood out on ex-
ira duty to be cured, the homesick
chaps had to go down deeper. Then it
came about that they suddenly went
deaf or lost their voices. The surgeons
were put to no end of trouble by these
Daligners, and when soldier had
hung out for any length of time he was
given some severe tests.
We had in C troop man named
Hope. who proved himself a good fight
er until homesickness overcame him.
His was the first ''lost voice" heard in
our brigade. He went out on sentry
one night. and at the end of two hours
came in with his voice down to a whis-
per. 1t was supposed to be hoarse-
ness which would soon disappear, and
Hope seemed very anxious to be cured
as speedily as possible. As his case did
rot yield after few days he was care
fully examined. His lungs and throat
were found to be all right, and the sur
geons were puzzled to know what was
,nc matter. A soldier who can't speak
aloud is of no use. and at the end of
three weeks, as Hope had not got his
voice back. there was talk of discharg-
ing him. Then somebody broached the
idea that he was "codding," and he was
taken in hand to experiment on. He
must have realized what was up, and
he must also have keyed up his nerves
to stand the strain.
One of the first experiments tried on
Hope cost the experimenter pretty
dearly. BY advice or order of the sur
geon one of the company fellin behind
him as he was walking up and down
and gave him a kick. It was kick in
earnest, and one calculated to make the
