CHAPTER XVI.
DAILY HANDS II HIS CHECKS.


The usual time for savages to make
sortie upon an enemy is just hefore
dawn-in that still hour when, it would
seem, tired nature is sunk in her deep
est slumber But no attack had been
made upon us The blacks must have
decided upon another line of ACTION.
That it was to starve and weaken Hs by
keeping us in the cave until we made
last feeble effort to break Though
them had no doubt.
All that we had now in the cave to
maintain life were some tea and sugar
and half leaf of yeast bread, which
was kept for the sick man. The black
boys had sneaked out and dug up a few
yams at the foot of the terrace, with
which they doubtless kept their munger
in check AS yet had not experienced
any particular discomfort from the
want of food. Jack and Savile d. clared
that all they wanted was a drink Of tea.
They were altogether SO cheerful, and
made SO many jokes about their want
of appetite. that any unenlightened per-
son might have supposed they had some
connection with a picnic party. Only
Daily was strangely silent. He seemed
to be thinking, thinking. thinking; he
was species of skeleton at the feast,
but none of Us minded him much l no

The sun was now high above the
horizon line. and the day had ia 1rly be-

narrow escape he had when one of the group
asked:
"Where were you when the cyclone hit
your house?"
Down cellar" was the reply.
You knew it was coming and had fed for
safety"
ooh, no! had a jaw with my wife and she
had locked me up in the cellar half day
previous"
'And when the house went a-fying a frag-

"Well, no. Ny wife hit me on the nose the
day before she locked me up"
"Then what about your narrow escape
from the cyclone?" persisted the questioner.

THE REGIMENT.

Did you see the regiment march away?
oh, but the day was fair and fine!
The flags were many, the music gay,
And the companies measured a goodly
line,
And their pulses bounded with life's red
There were many to cheer. and some to
pray
That day the regiment marched away.
Did you see the regiment march away?
oh, but the sight was grand and fine!
AS the muskets cleaned in the clear sun
shine.
Scarce man in the ranks whose head was
gray,
But the knights of youth in trim array
Stepped side by side down the city street,
To ~ \ bugles' call and the drums glad
beat,
Did you see that regiment marching back?
Oh, but the sight was glad to see!
oh, but the sight was sad to see!
Each man looked fit to drop in his track,
Haggard and weary with misery
For toll and hunger and fever pain
Had troubled them sere, and travel stain
Had darkened the faces and dulled the
shine
OF the trappings; and, oh, twas shrunk-
For many were mlssing-aye, some were
slain
Who had meant to march in that street
again,
When the gallant regiment came back.
Did you see the boys come marching back?
Scarce could they travel mile or two
Weakened and wearied through and
through;
But thousands crowded along their track,
For the city was proud to welcome them
back,
And eager to honor the heroes true,
Who had never wavered: and many a name
Was written high on the scroll of fame
For the eyes Of the whole round world to
see!-
So, freed from war and its misery
The gallant regiment came back!

HANDLING CORN FODDER.
When Cut at the Right Time, ard
Properly Cured, 1t lis n Mine of
Wealth to Farmers.

Corn fodder is not an article of COM
merce, but as feed it is worth about
as much. acre for acre, as hay. In or
der to get the most out of corn fodder
it is necessary for the farmer to keep
stock enough to consume it all and to
cut, cure and save it in the best pos
sible condition. 1t should be cut when
most of the husks have turned brown.
If cut earlier it is apt to be injured by
molding in the shock or by warm rains
before it is thoroughly cured. If it is
left standing too long it declines stead
lily in value as feed until it is worth
less. Shocks should contain from 100
to 120 hills. Smaller shocks leave too
much of the fodder exposed to the ac-
tion Of the air, sunshine and rains
which inju lure the outer leaves and stalks
AS soon as the corn will do to crib it
should be husked. the fodder shredded
and run into a NOW in the barn; it is
then secure from injury and is in the
very best form to feed and also to use
as bedding. The cheapest way to husli
and shred the fodder is to use ma
chine which does both at one operation.
Shredded fodder will not make animals
mouths sore as that cut in short
pieces does. Another good method of
caring for fodder is to tie it in bundles
as it is husied, and haul it into the barn
or stack it in long, narrow ricks that
can be used from the end as wanted. If
the bundles are set up in the field in
large shocks and securely tied, the fod-
der will keep well nearly all winter.
Fodder left standing in the field to be
CLEANED over by the stock is mostly
wasted and is n nuisance on any farm.
1t is also hard to plow under for the
next crop and it is an expensive job to
break it off, rake and burn it. When
cut, properly cured and cared for, and
fed to stock, corn fodder is a mine of
wealth.--Evan L. Chalfant, in Prairie
Farmer.

A WARTIME SCRAP.
In Which n Teamster Showed His
Colonel Something About
the Manly Art.

THE Tennessee regiments that were
in the union service" said the major,
'had more fight to the square inch
in them than any other regiments in
the army of the Cumberland. Many of
the Kentucky regiments in the union
service were built up on the same plan.
This was particularly the case with
the cavalry. The officers and men had
devil-may-care way about them that
seemed Indifferent. But when they
went into a fight they meant business.
Col. Robert NJ. Kelly, of one of the Ken
tucky cavalry regiments, was a charac-
ter On one occasion he had spent the
night, or a good part of it, playing
poker in the tent of Col. James S. Jack
son, who also commanded Kentucky
cavalry regiment.
Kelly left his pipe, favorite one,
in Jackson's tent, and he was very
much concerned about it. The next
day, as Jackson was galloping along at
the head of his regiment under orders
to attack n given point, Kelly rode after
him in n state of great excitement,
and Jackson, supposing that he carried
most important orders, halted the
