ena a surprise party the 4th of July,
1863. You see, we had lain idle all
summer in Arkansas while Grant clos
ed the coil around our people in Vicks-
burg. One day our leader telegraphed
army headquarters: L can take Helena.
Please let me attack The answer
was, Go ahead Now, if we took Hell
ena Grant would simply have to call
off his hunt at Vicksburg and turn it
on us; for, once in Helena, we could
break Yankee navigation on this river
and starve the enemy out at Vicksburg.
1t was a rich prospect, for we outnum-
bered the Helena garrison two to one.
1.-THE Yankee gunboat Tyler guarded
the river front, and an unbroken chain
of forts and trenches covered the city
on the land side. The enemy had 1000
men in Helena and plenty of guns Our
columns were divided into three storm
ing parties to rush the batteries and in
trenchments in our path. There were
six roads into the town, and the defend
ers were forced to watch them all. Our
brigade opened the ball, and soon after
daylight we had carried four lines of
trenches. But there was no attack at
any other point as yet. The day was
frightfully hot, and attention to bust
ness made it hotter.
THE guns on Graveyard hill poured
shots into us for a time; then that hill
was captured, and we took the fifth
line of trenches and dashed for Fort
Curtis, on our front. Then the gun
boat Tyler opened, uniting its fire with
that of the fort. and our brigade was
about destroyed. The way of retreat
was swept by this combined fire, and
made my way to the left, where Mar
maduke's cavalry was coming In on
the flank. l fell in with Shelby's bri-
gade, which was moving to attack Yam
kee Battery A. AS usual, Shelby went
in with a rush, followed by Collins
flying battery. Fort Curtis and the
Tyler as well as masked field bat
terry, received the troopers in fine shape,
and finally the Yankee infantry made
countercharge.
shelby was wounded, and the slaugh-
ter around Collins guns was awful.
His horses We're all shot down, and
Shelby called for volunteers to get the
guns out through that whitening fire.
Hundreds of troopers rallied at the
cry The battery is lostr Shelby said:
Fifty! Only so! Bring the battery
along, or fall with it! Collins and his
lieutenants were still fighting bravely,
but hopelessly. The dead horses were
cut away, ropes were attached to the
guns, and the men dragged them
through that fire back to the lines.
Only Is of that 80 volunteers got out
unhurt, and 20 staid where they fell.
We We're repulsed at all points and felt
like the poor fellows who toy with
things they don't know are loaded.
Helena was loaded to the muzzle for
us, and that wasn't the worst of it.
Grants men We're already in Vicks-
burg, so had we taken the place we
couldn't have held it. Our valor was
wasted, and all we had to show was q
laundering big list of Fourth of July
casualties. Any old Fourth seems cool

such was the case, and they went to
history to prove it. After a long ST.

Fort Dodge, Ia, Oct. 25.-Tarred and
feathered, ridden on rail, and driven
out of town for the commission of ore
of the most heinous crimes in the Grim
inal calendar n. ID. Peterson, a Scan
dinavlan of middle age, living near
Corwith, is now confined in the jail at
Forest City, Ia, awaiting trial at the
next session of the district court. Pc
terson is widower, who lived with
his two daughters, aged 16 and Is
years respectively. He was charged
with attempted assault on his young
est daughter. Then it was reported
that he was criminally intimate with
his eldest daughter.
The people of Corwith decided that
the town would be better off without
the presence of a citizen Of this char
acter and showed their feeling in an
unmistakable manner. Peterson was
taken to a secluded spot, where a jeer'
ing crowd applied a coat of hot tar to
his body and then rolled him in a
feather bed which had been ripped
open for that purpose. The victim was
then mounted on a rail and conveyed
to the city limits, where he was turned
loose with warning never to show
his face in Corwith again.
