BY the time the federal soldiers
came into the house John was grOaning

"'What ails him?' asked a federal

sort of doctor myself, and he felt
Johns pulse, and then he said to the
woman, It's bad case

John knew if they did that they
would discover his pistol under the
cover, and that would settle him. The
woman knew it, too. And with wo-
mans quick wit she said:
1T is against his doctors orders for
any one to annoy him. and if you are a
doctor, as you say, you know that one
doctor never interfereS with another
doctors patient.
THE federal was gentleman. He
touched his hat, bowed and ordered his
men to leave"

Yes: in two ways. He came pretty

doubly paid for, and I think when we
do conquer them, the islands will be in
the hands of the United States like
Tartar that the Irishman caught, we
won't know what to do with them and
won't be able to keep them quite long
enough to know what we have got.
From what l can learn about the
resources of these islands, I believe they

them, but so far as the precious metals
and coal are concerned, there is moth
ing in the past to show that any money
can be made by investing in them l1ere
Gold, silver and copper are found in
very limited quantities, scattered over
this and the other islands of the Phil
1ppin group, but not in paying guam
titles. Verv much more money has
been expended in opening up mines
heretofore by English and French cap
ital, as well as German and Spanish,
than has been taken out, and the con-
sensus of opinion of all WHO have lived
here long enough to know, and who
are mining men, is that there will new
er be any extensive mining of gold,
silver and copper in the islands. The
coal is a sort of Ignite, and although
1t is found in large bodies, 1t will, per-
haps, never take the place of the Ma

work hard all day for very few cents.
Only large concerns, which can buy up
sugar or tobacco plantations. or put
up sugar refineries or cigar factories,
or build railroads and steamships, could
hope to make any money here, it seems
to me. They live very economically
and could not only compete with any
one coming here to go into business,
but could sell goods SO much cheaper,
on account of their low expenses, as to
make it a very uphill job for any one
who tried to do business on the Amer-
can plan. There are few fairly large
sized stores here, conducted by Span
iards and Germans, but they do net
seem to be making much money"

John Coger dashed into the brush and
broke up a camp of militia. They said
they killed 49, That same day and
growing out of that fight Will Mcclure
captured a federal right in the face of
a line of his own men. Mcclure had
been doing spy duty and wore a blue
uniform. So, when he rode up to the
federal line he wasn't noticed, but he
said to federal. whose name, he
learned later, was Sergeant Russell.
Come with me and say nothing and
he said it very low. Russell didn't know
that he was being led away from his
own men by a Qulntrell spy. so he
rode off with him. and when they were
out of range of the federal guns Nc
CURE turned to the federal and says:
You're my prisoner, Quantrel
wants to see you.
None of us ever knew why, but
Quantrell ordered the federal shot. and
he selected John Coger to do it, When
John got the order he shut his eyes and
clinched his teeth but he said nothing
back He went to Russell and said as
cool as if he was asking him to take a
drink:
81 don't like this job, but I've got to
do it
John told me afterward that the
young federal said to him: Blaze
away, but you are carrying out the or
ders of a damned cur and coward
1T was one of the unwritten laws of
that organization to allow no one to
speak ill of its leader without paying
the penalty. l asked John what, he re-
piled to the federars abuse of Guam
trell. And John shut his eyes, and
hands, and Kissed:
'Nothin'. l lknowed he was right,
in that case, anyhow. We had no bust
ness to kill that man.
But John obeyed orders. always. If
a man in that organization had ever
hesitated to do as he was ordered he
would have been shot like a dog.
Il think the closest call John ever
had was when he was saved by wo-
man. He saw company of militia
coming and he had nothing TO do but
run into a house. He partially undress-
ed himself and crawled into bed, taking

MUCH WOUNDED JOHN coGER.
The Old Confederate Guerrilla Who Shot
Himself because of His Wife.

Himself Because of His Wife.
From the New York Sun.
Il reckon you read about John Co.
gers shooting himself out in Grain
Valley, Mo-" said an old guerilla now
living in New York 1T is a strange
thing to me how a soldier, and partic-
ularly a man like John CCger, would
shoot himself because he couldn't get
along with his wife. l know men to do
fool things about women when they
are in the lollypop stage, but joan Co
ger was born fighter, and he had been
married a Ions time-42 years-and his
wife had borne and raised six children.
John must be nigh 70 years old. I
think any man who went through the
civil war, whether he was a federal or
a confederate. ought to have the privl-
Iege of living the remainder of his days
quietly and of dying in peace at home.
But that isn't the story. John Coger
was one of the men who at times
growled when Quantrell gave him an
order. And that was mighty uncom-
mon with Quantrell's men, l always
had an idea that John Coger had some
sort of grudge against Quantrell, but
he never would admit it. l reckon you
know that the old Quantrell band-I
mean the first one-consisted of eight
men, Then when Quantrell was made
captain there were 30. Coger was one
of the 80. After he had been at it a
while there sprung up a superstition
that the bullet or knife hadn't been
moulded or whetted that could kill
John Coger And still there hardly ever
was a fight in which he didn't get hit.
And it got to be a byword after a fight
Where was John Coger hit this time?
It was, as John Edwards used to say,
astonishing how much lead John Coger
could get along with and keep fat on it.
When the war was over John COger
took a census of his wounds one day

Librarian Young Dead.

Washington, Jan. 17.-John Russell
Young, librarian of the congressional
library, died at his residence here this
morning, after an illness of several
weeks Young had a notable career
as a journalist, diplomatist, public Off
cial and intimate associate of dfstin-
suished public men. He was born in
bennington, Chester county. Pa, in
1S4l. Early in life, Young entered the
office of the Philadelphia Press as copy
boy. In 1851 he appeared in Washing
ton as an employee of the United States
senate. By this time he had become a
fluent writer When the civil war broke
out he became correspondent in the
field for the Philadelphia Press, and
his graphic descriptions attracted much
attention. Later Young was connected
with the various great newspapers.
During Grants administration he was
sent abroad to study financial condi-
lions for the government. In 1877, when
Grant started on his trip around the
world, Young accompanied the party,
and on his return, wrote Around the
World with Grant In 1882 Young
became minister to China. In 1897. Nc
