GOT HIS WISH IN BATTLE.

A Soldier Who Was Hit in the Spot He
 Chose on the Previous Evening.
 Somebody had asked a Confederate
 veteran in group on the hotel piazza known of many cases of premonition of
 death before battle. Yes and mo-" he replied. "On the eve of an engagement
 thousands of soldiers undoubtedly have vague feeling that they will be killed and of course in some cases the pres-
 cience is bound to come true. How ever, there is nothing remarkable in premonitons of that kind. Where one | is fulfilled hundreds come to naught and are forgotten.
 | "5ut your question reminds me-" the veteran continued, "of very curious experience of my own. It was on the night before Shiloh, and dozen or so soldiers in my company were talking, half in jest, of their chance of being wounded in the battle which we all knew would take place next day One said he would be willing to sacrifice finger to his country. another said he would prefer to get it in the foot and finally somebody in the party turned to me. Say, sergeant he exclaimed tell us where you would be rather be hit if you have to be wounded to-morrow? I don't want to stop bullet at all,' I re- piled, but if that's my fate I think I'd prefer to be hit in the canteen.' They all laughed at the sally and the chafiing turned to something else.

I saw comrade after comrade fall, and at last what was left of our command found itself in that frightful death-trap afterward known to history as The Hornets Nest We were striv- ing desperately to hold our position, and I myself was kneeling behind a little bush firing as rapidly as I could reload my musket. I had just discharged the piece, and had my right arm raised in the act of driving home the ramrod, when I felt terrific blow on the side of the head and instantly something wet poured over my face and neck Sup posing of course, that I had been hit, and was being deluged with blood I put up my hand and was amazed to find it simply covered with water Incredi- ble as it may seem, had actually been hit in the canteen, and the bullet had given the big tin bottle such an impetus that it had whirled up and struck me just above the ear. If I had been in any other position I should have been bored through and through, and, in spite of my deadly peril, l was so inn pressed by the incident that I kept the perforated canteen and sent it home as a souvenir.

KEPT A BEAR FREED NINE DAYS, The mysterious disappearance of two valuable hounds owned by A.. w.. Combs of Oakland has been explained, and the story behind it proves one of the most remarkable eases of canine faithfulness and determination ever re- corded. Combs was one of party of
 hunters who returned a few days ago
 from a weeks hunting trip in the
 mountains back of Crescent City, Del
 Norte county.
 The party had taken along four
 hounds, which were missed during the first night in the mountains, They had evidently strayed away during the night, and for the following four days
 the hunters were without their com panions. On the fourth day, however, two of the hounds returned to camp, the two belonging to Combs being fin ally being given up for lost or stolen. When the hunters were ready to start for home, they informed Superior Judge Cutler of the mysterious disappearance of the two hounds and requested him to advertise a reward for their return in his name.
 One day last week MT. Combs re- ceived a letter from Judge Cutler con veying the happy news that the hounds had been recovered. Judge Cutler writes that they were found in the mountains, several miles from where the Oakland CTS had been hunting, by a miner, who had heard them barking for several days. The miner had gone to investi- gate and found two hounds holding the fort at the base of a large tree, into which bear had climbed for safety from their attack. This was nine days after they had been missed from the hunters camp, and for several days they had remained on watch at this particular tree. They were completely eXhaused and very nearly starved to death, as was also the bear, which the miner killed,-San Francisco Chronicle
