A War Incident.

This may be an old story, but to the
age. At the outbreak of the war Jen-
nison, Il Kansas gambler, raised a regi-
ment of wild and wOolly characters,
and soon gained n reputation for devil
try and daring by his bloody raids
across the border into Missouri. Once
he raided Independence, piled every bit
of merchandise out into the square, and
what he and his men could not carry
away was burned. 1t was shortly after
this that Colonel Jennison and COM
pany of men rode further down into the
State, pausing one afternoon at little
cabin in Cracker Neck. The raiders
We're not in uniform, and the tobacco
stained old settler who came to the door
made sure that they were members Of
Quantrell's band.
That's Eice rifle you have up
there over the door," remarked Jenni-
son as he entered the cabin.
"Shorely" exclaimed the Missourian.
at air one of the trustiest in the land.
Many's the bluecoat I've laid low with
thet there rifle. Pshaw, I've picked 'em
off like squirrels until l jes' got tired
of KILN 'em."
Just then the rear guard, all In blue
uniforms, came galloping up.
Take this man out and shoot him!'
coldly ordered Jennison. Hes been
picking off bluecoats like squirrels, SO
he tells me-"
The old farmer slowly scratched his
head. an expression Of extreme per-
plexity stealing over his face. Then he
edged up to Colonel JennisOn and soft

Say, Kuhnel," he said, I've lived in
these here parts for fifty years, an you
can go to any of my neighbors an
they'll tell you that I'm the damndest

Democratic Year in Ohio.

1t is felt by great many acute poll
ticiaus that this will turn out a Demo-
cratic year in the variable Buckeye
State, hence there Is more interest than
there has been for several years in the
Democratic State Convention. The
Republicans have heavy load to car
ry-in the first place in Mckinley and
Hanna, and then in Imperialism, mill
tarism and the trusts. The election in
wolves to some extent the future of Mr..
Mckinley. for if his party is defeated
in Ohio this fall his denomination next
year will become very doubtful ques-
ton. Mr.. Mckinley is not an eXcep-
tionally strong man personally in Ohio.
He is too well known, and a certain
gloss that conceals the real man in 9th

The battle lasted until the Confeder-
ates' boats had all been sunk or dis
abled.
The facts of the matter are simply
these: After the naval battle skif in
charge of Lieut.. Elicit came to the city
under flag of truce. Elicit had a
Union flag tightly wrapped around n
staff, and, consulting with the Mayor,
he went to the pOstoffice accompanied
by some policemen and hoisted the
flag. When he came out on the roof
of the building to hoist the flag n
NOrthern-born man, but a Southern
sympathizer, George H. Crook by
name, fired pistol shot at him. After
the flag was run up number of Mem
phians started up to the roof to tear it
down, but the policemen who accom-
panied Elicit stood on the trap door
which opened on the roof, and those
who would have torn down the flag
were thwarted. This is the story of the
greatest naval battle ever fought on
Western waters Nowadays things
would be different should battle oc-
cur on the river.-Memphis Scimitar.
LuIls in Battle.
"Lulls came in the midst of battles"
said the Major. las well as between
them. At Stone River we strained and
strove for hours in the hottest Of the
fight and then rested an hour or more
in line, while the enemy reformed for
Il second attack. Even then we rested
in a certain sense, because we lay prone
on the ground, while our artillery fired
over us at the advancing line in gray.
The situation was trying on the nerves,
but an old college friend in another reg
iment crawled over for a little visit
while shot and shell We're flying over
us. The next day we We're quiet the
most of the time, and on the I'd of jan
uary we thought there was little in
clination on the part of the enemy to
disturb us.
''Dut little after noon there was an
ominous shifting of our own divisions.
We were fortified on the point of hill
extending toward the front and felt
pretty secure. But when n division in
blue, moving in close battle order, set
tied down like great flock of crows on
our right, and another drifted like 4
dark cloud to our left, and still another
lowered in our rear, we realized that
our position was to be the center of the
next attack. | remember now that the
coming of the reinforcing divisions to
our lines with more than ordinary quiet
ness of movement impressed me as the
coming of storm clouds, and when Il
veritable rain of bullets came from the
front l was not surprised. There had
been lull before the storm, but the
storm was all the more furious when it
burst upon Us.
ION the second day at Shiloh there
came lull in our front that was too
tantaliZing for young fellow in our
regiment to resist. He went forward
unconscious of doing and unbe-
lieving as to danger, when he was over
taken by General Nelson and staff. The
General, never very choice as to his
language, refined in his galloping horse
as he sped the young fellow, and shout

while the others are feeding on the

only knows the language Of It's kindred

thing which he regards as an intru-

where he can observe operations with

birds have an owl at bay in bush, In

has known blackblrds to prosecute a
poor crow for just taking a few eggs,
when there was no evidence that one
egg belonged to the percecutors.
The crow Is a wise fellow. He has

go forth to shoot the crow. He would
not get one in month, unless by ac-

The Engllshman's Experience.

subject of conversational, and the Yam.

When the dirigible balloon is a COM
plete success its use in the operations
Of war may be practical. Until then
and possibly afterward-the balloon
promises to be far more dangerous to
the army supplied with it than to the
one against which it Is proposed to use
it.
1t has been shown that it is possible
to make long voyage at high rate
of speed, three German army officers
having travelled 421 miles at a speed
Of seventy miles an hour. But this
experiment proves very little as to the
practical usefulness of the balloon for
military service. 1t is not likely that
these officers could have discovered
any important information during this
hurried trip, and even if they had they
would have descended in the enemy's
lines, where they would have been cap
tured
In Cuba during the late war the cap
tive balloon that was expected to
serve as a lookout for our officers
above the Spanish lines caused, it was
reported the loss of many lives in our
own ranks, because it located our po-
sition exactly.
Even if it were possible to steer the
balloon in any desired direction, it
might not be of much value in war,
for it would merely transfer to the air
a certain amount of the fighting that
now takes place on terra frma. But
until our knowledge of air navigation
is greatly enlarged we cannot hope for
very desirable results from balloons
