carried houses, crops and everything
else before it and caused an appall-

were that five of the children had
been caught with a number of 9TH

gotten out of the wreck and is still
living. The bodies of the two older

four turkeys and a monster rattlesnake.
Mr.. Stapler says that turkeys and ducks
were more numerous than they could
count, and that they could have killed
scores of them II they had tried, but they
were hunting for deer. He killed two deer
at one time and almost at one shot One

extinguished the child was badly burned.
A messenger came in from the country
yesterday after a physician to attend the
injuries of a negro child, which was also
badly burned by swinging too close TO the
fire. During the winter season accidents
OF this sort are so frequent that parents
should be constantly on the watch-out for

people so persistently claim military hon

cent notice of a Georgia wedding stated
the bride was a daughter of Capt -
Perkins, a graduate of West Point and a
captain in the Mexican war" when, In
fact, the officer referred to was never even
a cadet at West Point, and served only as
a lieutenant in the Mexican War, after
which he was "cashiered dismissed the
service by courtmartial.
Capt. Oliver Barnette Warwick of the
Eighteenth u. S. Infantry, killed in the
Philippines battles, did not graduate at
the head of his class at West Point in
1874" as reported. Nor did he 60 to the
academy in 1870, but entered on Sept. l,
1858, and left on Feb. 6, 1873, more than a
year before his class graduated. and 1t
he was appointed a second lieutenant in
the Eighteenth Infantry. He was a good
soldier and won deserved promotion, dying
on the field Of battle. I simply refer TO
his case as showing how people take hear

official records.

honored name of Commodore Josiah TAFT
nall, whose services in the Mexican War

ton: "Blood is thicker than water" have
made that name immortal-is not mem
toned, a most surprising oversight or in
territorial slight. II is true that Commo-
dore McDonough and others are not men,
toned, but many who are given place in
the little book are far less worthy of such
recognition. I learn, also, that Commodore
Tattnalls name is absent from the LIST Of
naval heroes inscribed on the Dewey
Arch in New York and If this be true IL
should not occur in the permanent repro
duction of that great naval monument. In
these Gays of reconcil alton and united

be sanctioned by truly patriotic men.
