Elected the Owner.

The other evening as a muscular per-
son was passing a house, Il lady who
stood at the gate called out to him: Sir,
l appeal to You for protection!'
"What's the matter?' he asked, as he
stopped short
'"I'here's Il man in the house, and he
won't go out Of doors, though l have Or

''Hc won't. eh? Well see about that"
IheIeupOn the man gave the woman his
coat to hold and sailed into the house.
He found Il man at the supper table, and
took him by the neck and remarked
"Nice style of brute you are, Ell? Come
ont o this. or Ill break every bone in
your body!'
The man fought. and it was not till a
chair had been broken and the table uD-
set that he w3s hauled out of doors by
the legs and given a fling through the
gates.
"Now. them you brass faced old tramD.

as he got up. Pm no tramp! | own

'Thundcr!" whispered the muscular
man as he gazed from one to the other
and realized that it was the wife's meth

with her husband. And then he made a
grab for his coat and disappeared into

The Last Charge at Appomattox.

Maj Joseph Van Holt Nash who mas
ranked Az ono Of the most dashing Off
GERS Of the celebrated Stewards corps Of
cavalry in the war between the North
and South, has determined to gather
facts incident to the last charge upon the
enemy at Appomattox courthouse, in
which his regiment took Il most conspc-
nous part. Maj Nash is not only n fine
scholar, but is pre-eminently qualified to
gather these interesting historical facts,
hy reason of the position he held in Stew
arts corps-that Of Acknowledgement. 1t
is Il welknoWn fact that the Fourteenth
Virginia cavalry. under command of Col.
+. h. Bouldin, played a most conspicu-
Gus part in the last drama Of the Civil
war, and on the very eve of the surren~
der, with the enemy's bayonets hedging
them in OIL every side, they charged
across an open field into q piece Of woods
and captured two handsome pieces Of
field artillery, with several elegantly at
tired officers and a number Of their men,
composing two full gun attachments.
The guns were sent in to Appomattox
courthouse and turned over to a dctach-
ment Of the Washington artillery, who
had them shottcd and ready for action
when the flag Of truce was seen futter-
ing across the field on the way to Gen.
Grants headquarters. Maj. Nash is a
native Of Virginia. but has for a num-
Der OF years resided in Atlanta, Ca

the transatlantic Service.
Will british shipbuilders ever attempt
to regain the blue ribbon Of the Trans
atlantic service, which they held for over
half Il century! They lost it three years
ago, when that ma gniticent North Ger
man Lloyd boat, Kaiser Wilhelm der
Crosse, beat the fastest times made by
either Of those British cracks Of the GU
nard line. the Lucania and Campani.
Now tho Kaiser Wilhelm has taken sec
ond place to the Hamburg American
liner Deutschland, which, within the last
few days, averaged Il speed of $500
knots from Chcrbourg to New York, and
broke all previous records, including her
own, by five hours.
TO the people OF the greatest maritime
nation this is not very pleasant reading
but experts say we need not be very
deeply concerned. We do not now pos
seSs the fastest boats; but although the
pick of our mercantile marine have been
left behind by German competitors, we
have, they say, one cOnSolation-wc could
build faster boats if they were wanted.

Mr. Russell Went Free

Once Says the London correspondent
Of the Manchester GUARDIAN, when he
first came to London, and was laying the
foundation of his great career, the fu-
turc- lord chief justice of England went
TO the PIT of theater. The piece was
popular, the pit was crowded. and the
young advocate had only standing room.
All Of sudden 4 man at his side cried
out that his watch was stolen. Mr.. Rus
sell and two other men were hemmed in.
1T is one of you three" cried the man
minus the watch. "Wel}, we had better
go out and be searched.' said Mr.. Rus
sell, with the alertness of mind that did
not fail him at a trying moment amidst
an excited crowd. A detective was at
hand, and the suggestion was accepted.
As Mr.. Russell walked out, the idea
flashed through his mind that if the man
behind him had the. stolen property he
would probably try to secrete it in the
pocket of his front-rank man. Quick as
thought he drew his coat-tails about him
only to feel, to his horror, something
large and smooth and round already in
his pocket. While he was still wonder

Cure for Rheumatism.

One day during a cold snap last win

The old fellow slipped out of the house
As soon as he could conveniently, and
limped away. 1 followed him, thinking
to give him what change I could spare,
for I thought he must be desperately
poor if he must steal a potato.
When | caught up with him and Of

him and hear him while he tried those
cases. l shall never forget the simple
and great man as he sat listening IT, the
troubles Of all kinds that were put before
him. lie seemed to go to the bottom Of
justice all the time. The last one OF the
crowd was a girl who was deaf and
dumb. All she wanted was to see the
President. Lincoln sat there for almost
half an hour and wrote answers on the
girls tablet and talked with her in that
way.
FINALLY my time came and Lincoln
had never met him but the one time
some years before in Columbus. but he
knew me at once and said: Have you
been here all this time? Why didn't you
let me know it,? And then he went on to
talk about various things. Finally he
