COL. STOTSENBERG'S ORDERLY.
Old Chris ellison Cried Like a Child
When His Commander Fell.

Mdnlld Letter
1 was out at Malolos when the dead bodies
of Colonel S~totsenberg, of the First Ne
braska, and his acting adjutant, Lieutenant
Sisson, were brought in. They were laid
out on a rough. low bench by the depot.
The slightly built colonel and the splendid
form of his lieutenant, each with a tiny red
spot over the heart, were eyed by hundreds
of passing soldiers. One Nebraska soldier
would come up, take a look and turn away
with a tear on his cheek and a fierce look
in his eye. Another would gaze at his dead
leader unaffected and ~criticise him for RASH
ness in leading men where they must die.
When the crowd had thinned TO scatter
ing spectators there was an old man, with
bent shoulders. weather beaten, SCARED
face, who would move near the dead colonel
and stand there in reverent grief. IL he
suspected his actions were noticed, he quick
ly turned away. Becoming interested. l
took a position where L could see his face.
and was surprised to see the tears trickling
from between his eyelids and down his face,
those on the right side coursing over a great
ugly scar the length of the cheek. When
the old man discovered that he had been
watched. he brushed the water from his
eyes and, calmly gazing on the dead colonel,
said:
II wish I was him. / wish / laid there,
with all you young fellows looking at me.
! w %x h1dv care r. II c0 yTI all came b,s and and looked a
too young: 'Twouldn't make any difference
bout me-"
He then told his story. Tor ten years he
had been orderly for the young army .1:ccr:
lived right by his side, in his family, sni
followed him wherever he went. That morn
ing he was twenty feet behind the brave
colonel, hobbling along az fast as his old,
unsteady legs woul1 carry him. when he
saw Stotsenberg fall. Some of the soldiers
saw IL. 200. but before they could reach their
leader old Chris ellison had fallen on his
knees by his side. crying like a Child. II
was too plain that death was there. The
old man knelt au1 sobDsj until he dead
colonel was borne to the rear, and then
followed the sad procession with a look Of
deepest despair on his face. He remained
by the body. until IL was taken TO Manila
ard prepared for shipment. IL was difficult
TO say whether the heartbroken wife or
faithful old soldier suffered most.
ellison Is the unique character of the
Eighth Army Corps. He Is a soldier by pro-
.fessdon and for life, which alone il not
singular. for there are others of the same
kind TO be found I'm the troops here. but
nacity with which he follows danger gives
the distinction. He was a soldier at Van
couyer In 1859 while u. s. Grant was there

Muncie Natural Gas Pipes Eaten Full
of Holes.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
MUNCIE. Ind, une 2~5.-Experts find a
decidedly dangerous condition existing in
this city as a result of natural gas pipes
having been destroyed by electrolysis. The
trouble comes from the trolley street cars,
and steps are being taken TO saddle the re-
sponsibility where 1t belongs. The Water
Works Company has informed patrons that
they must in the future repair their own
service pipes, and residents in the business
center of the city are startled at the pub
lished statements of experts that many nat
ural gas pipes under the asphalt streets are
full of holes and that the natural gas is es-
Gaping. In a short time the cellars will be
filed. and terrible explosions are sure to
follow.
