in the mill were getting out of ammunition.
There was a call for two stout men to carry

THE STORY OF A BUGLE.
How It's Notes Sounded Hundreds of Times
with Moving Effect ON Boys in Blue,

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: If the
old time war notes of the battered bugle
which now hangs in the place of honor in
the home of II. +. Parker, of Coldwater,
Mich, could be woven into speech, what
eloquent and pathetic tales they could tell
of march and battle and bivouac. Long
ago its echoes rang among the mountains
through which Sherman's army toiled.
and many times its clear, insstent notes
hurled line of Union blue with glittering
bayonets against the rebel ramparts. The
old bugle spoke then in tones of authority
that sent many a gallant soldier to his
death, and often its music was drowned
by ringing cheers of victory as our forces
planted the Stars and Stripes upon ihe
rebel breastworks.
It was the bugle to sound the first notes
of forward to the Union troops in
side the intrenehments of Atlanta. Par
ker was member of the 10th Mich, and
Shafter, of that regiment, now Major-G Gen
eral, commanding the Department of Cal
ifornia. The 10Th was especially endeared
to Coldwater, for many of the most promi-
nent citizens here were among its rank and
file, and it was commanded by Col. II. C..
Gilbert, of this city, whowas killed at Resa-
ca while leading. his regiment in a charge
upon the enemy's works. Parker was
detailed as brigade buger for the Second
Brigade, Third Division, Twentieth Corps,
and the brigade was commanded by Ohm
Coburn.
On the morning of Sept. 2, 1864, while
Sherman was fighting Hood and Hardee,
south of Atlanta, at Jonesboro and
Rough and Ready" Coburn marched his
brigade inside the works at Atlanta, while
Parker, upon his copper bugle, blew the
military calls which sent our troops through
the streets evacuated that morning by the
rebels.
The bugle did service until the close of
the war, and an order was issued giving
Parker the privilege of having the battles
in which he and his bugle participated
engraved upon it. The names of the bat
ties are as follows: Resaca, Cassville, Dal-
las Woods, New Hope Church, Golgotha
Church, Culp's Farm, Kenesaw Mountain,

The soldiers who marched with Sherman
from Chattanooga to Atlanta, and from
Atlanta to the Sea and through the Caro-
linas, will remember these places and the
desperate fighting that took place.

TAKING IN THE PICKETs.

We had 16 men on picket across the river
from us on the road, stationed in block
house. Early in the morning the advance
guard of the rebel forces came up to our
pickets. They were dressed in blue uni
forms, secured at Holly Springs, which
fooled Our guard. Our men were sur
rounded and ordered to surrender, which
they did. Our men told the Johnnies there
were $50 men at the bridges. "Oh, well, I"
it is reported the rebel officer said, "f that is
all, We'll hardly stop there. Well just take
them in and go on" So on they came and
attempted to ride across the road-bridge.
1t was then about 8 o'clock in the morn
ing, but We were all in position. We OBJ
jected to their advance, and opened fire with
musketry. AS that was all we had We
raised a tremendous yelling in addition and
poured shots into their ranks at such a
lively rate that they fell back little way.
Our Chaplain, Ewing, had gone up on top
of the mound and planted our regimental
flag. The rebels rallied again and made a
headlong charge across the bridge. Some
few Of them succeeded in getting over with
the colors, taking shelter under the river
bank. The continuous fire from the mound
and the old saw-mill, which was cross-fire
at close range, however, caused the main
force 10 fall so fast on the bridge that they
Went back again.
Gen. Van Dorm and his staff came out
onto the bridge with a flag Of truce. Our
Colonel, ". II. Morgan, and Chaplain
Ewing went out to the bridge to meet them.
We had all ceased firing. Van Dorm intro
duced himself and said:

GIVEN UP AS A BAD JOB.

The main force of the rebels then fell back
from the bridge. They sent men to the
railroad trestle, determined to burn it any
how. 1t was getting near sundown when
they slipped in under the trestle and poured
turpentne on the timbeTs, aiming to stick a
match to it; but our men were on the alert
and opened upon them, and made it so hot
that they had to give it up, after losing three
or four men.
About this time the cannon sent us from
ton and gave the rebels few parting shots.
The Johnnies fell back about mile and

We halted again and

1t was nearly IL
o'clock when a charge
was ordered. We and
others fixed bayonets,
and | wondered what
would happen if those

they We're. Down the
hill we went like a

until they got nearly

tillery they had on our

killed about all the
horses, as well as
many a rebel artil-
lyman.

The rebels halted

on the other side and
formed again. Our
forces crossed and

bridge. The rebs had

down the hill, he having been struck by a
grapeshot, and then went back to the regi-
ment, which found faced-about toward the
enemy. But the rebels did not fire any
more, and we were left in possession of the
field. We found we had several pieces OF
artillery and a large number of small arms
and some prisoners, for they had left their
wounded for us to take care of and their
dead for us TO bury.
The Confederates had learned that a part
of Rosecranss army was following them,

they would be in n trap, SO they fanked
around and got out and away, leaving most
Of their artillery and wagons. The one

ment lost three killed and 26 wounded.
Our forces stayed there on the 9Th and 18th,
burying the dead and caring for the wound

THE FIGHT AT DAvIS'S MILLS.
We reached Bolivar again on the night OF
the Sth. On Nov. 2 We were ordered to La
Grange, Tenn, 25 miles away. There we
stayed until the 2Sth, when We went TO
Dayis's Mills, Miss, six miles. Davis's
Mills is on Wolf River where the Charleston
d Mobile X. X. crosses it, and consisted of
All cid saw-mill. There we guarded the
trestle. Gen. Grant was in Mississippi,
below us, and the railroad was his only line
OF communication north. Part of his army
was al Holly Springs, the rest south of that
place.
We had an easy thing of it until about
Dec. 20. The left wing OF our regiment was
stationed at another bridge few miles
south of us. On the date mentioned We
received word that Van Dorm was coming
our way with about 4, 900 men, with the in
tention of cutting off Grants supplies.
Grant had run a lot of supplies TO Holly
Springs, and left the 10th Ill. to guard the
place. The rebels on Dec. 20 ran in on them
early in the morning and captured the regi-
ment and stores without firing a gun.
They paroled the 10th boys, took all the
supplies they. needed, and started up the
road towards us. They came around the
left wing of our regiment, getting between

conception of the freak inventor. One is
a brass cylinder filled with ink. In one
end of which fits a piston rod. The o'her
erl Of the cylinder tapers to fine point

is for the purpose Of forcing the ink
downward. but it would occur to most
people that when the pen was held in the
hand, the ink would naturally flow in the
required direction without the aid of the
piston. The stopcock lets the ink flow
copiorsly or meagrely. Another pen

inventor writes, 80 that the writer will
not be forced to stop so often to dip his

was to dip both pens at the same time and

THE ARMY IN THE FIELD.
Difficulties Experienced in Keeping
Ii Fed md Equipped.


The iayman cannot easily realize the vast
amount OF material as to food and am
munition dema aded by an army in the
field few facts and figures as to this
may aid 70 make it more tangible. Each
man requires, at a minimum, three pounds
and hall of food per day. Each animal
should Sa"e at least twenty pounds Of food
In countries where grazing is not abun-
dani.
If We take. for purposes Of estimate, only
fifteen pounds required to supply each
animal, leaving five pounds to be gathered
from the country by grazing and otherwise.
We assume a quantity that may be con-
sidered a minimum. An army of $50. 600
men would require about $4,000 animals
for transportation of artillery camp equip
ment. ammunition, food. hospital and
medical equipment. There should not he
less than 10000 cavalry. There should not
be less than 10000 animals available at all
times to supply losses. This makes
total of 0,000 animals to be fed
With this as a basis, we see that the
daily demands would be for the men 525,-
600 pounds and for the horses, 1850, 600
pounds. or an aggregate Of 1875, 900
pounds. This is equal TO something more
than S36 tons per day.

THE MAN BEHIND THE DRUM.
a Necessary Adjunct to the Modern
Street Procession.

The man with the drum is very impor-
tant individual these days of street pro-
cessions. He keeps things moving and
men from tagging behind quickstep time,
and is altogether thoroughly indispensa-
BILE person in a parade. The band only
plays at intervals. but the drum beats
steadily on.
Victory in battle is often due to the man
with the drum, for he sounds the summons
to march on and the inspiration of the tap
fires the spirit and infames the soul and
sets the heyday in the blood rioting hotly
with no thought or power to attend the de-
cision of the judgment.
The nam with the drum at the Audito-
rium is always the most interesting char
acter in the ensemble Of the orchestra
High in the centre he stands among his fell
lows and his arms fly this way and that
among the kettledrums and his flexible
wrists and fingers are in perpetual motion
In some parts of the Wagner music he
would sound the alarm of his beat with a
savage satisfaction and in the vorspiel to
the Meistersinger his famous bombardment
never failed to bring n smile Of mirthful
enjoyment to the generally impassive
countenance of the leader of the orchestra

A RARE PICTURE OF CROMWELL
An Old Engraving of the Great Pro-

From the London standard.)

Assistant Librarian Merrill. of the New
berry Library. has discovered rare copy
of an engraving of Oliver Cromwell among
the books on the Commonwealth of Eng
land, at the library. That the engraving
has not been reproduced in any magazine
articles or memories OF the great protector
is proof that it is very rare, says Mr.. Mer-
rill. The engraving is by. Thomas Jenner.
and is in a book written by Cromwell HIM
self. 1t is printed by Mr. Simmons for
Thomas Jenner at the south entrance of
the Royal Exchange, 1854"
The engravings gives full face view Of
Cromwell in his cuirass, with his hair
falling over his shoulders.
Cromwell must have preferred it to the
many others or he would not have had 1t
in book written by himself said Mr.
Merrill.
The book itself is a curiosity having let
ters from Cromwell to Parliament, the ac-
tons of that body in diary FORM the names
of the members Of Parliament, and finally
che writ for the selection of successors Of
members.
