The cHoRus OF TIE SEA.


hear unnumbered voices in the chorus of
Among them spirit echoes as from sailors
hidden graves.
A multitude of murmurs that in differing
degree
Combine to make the matchless music
chanteu by the sea; ~
Der beach and land in measures grand
these limpid songs are sung,
AS though each flashing teweled drop had
found a jeweled tongue.
Here unto Natures devotees with under
standing ear
z Each murmur speaks Its message sweet
harmoniously clear;
Wise heads and hearts are tuned TO catch
the subtle soul of sound
When waves reveal in language large
Gods mysteries pTofound: H.f
They speak the secrets of the sea. con-
cealed through ages past,
And reach prophetic arms toward the fu-
ture veiled AID vast.
What are the otatorios and symphonies OF
man
Compared to those devised upon, Gods
widest wisest plan.
Interpreting the thought of God enshrined
in sweetest song.
Which ranges from the light bird-note to
thunder deep and strong?
waves rear and cheer in charging lines,
laugh clamor and rejoice,
And every breaker silver-fringed hath here
silver voice.
The lights and shadows come and fade
like ghosts of long ago,
And with them lights and shades of sound
In rapture ebb and flow.
Like voiced reflections of the .tiuts and
strangely glorious CLEANS.
Until they mingle into one like music hear
in dreams;
While every note its message hath for souls
attuned to hear
The whirlwind. or the fatutest truth God
whispers low and clear.
Wouldst hear the beat of Natures heart
then hear the throbbing sea,
And learn the message sheathed in song
God uttereth for thee,
n thousand voices loud or low, each beauti-
full alone,
Completer, sweeter when combined IN
matchless time and tone;
"A thousand hands along the sands play
when Gods baton Swsys.
And In one hallelujah chorus thrill the
world with praise.
L EDGAR JONES.

ASLEEP ON TIE FIRING LINZ.
Corporal MeCus Took Nap whii~
the Confederates Were Try
ing to Pot Him.

That story OF the soldier who lost
BIS leg In thrashing machine" said
the colonel. relates the Chicago Inter
Ocean, reminded me of the experience
of Corporal Sam Copeland, of comany
G. Fifty-secon@ Ohio. At Kenesaw. Just
after the second assault, we fell back q
short distance, threw up intrench-
mvSts and held our ground. In the hot
work that preceded Private Club. OF
company X. had been killed and his
body .ay only few yards in front OF
company g. The confederate fire was
50 heavy that the body could not be
brought inside the breastworks and
scores of bullets struck IL every minute,
much to the annoyance of the men.
Finally Copeland, saying that he
could not bear to see poor Club treat
ed in That way, started on a run for a
tree near the body and made an at
tempt TO cover it with a gum blanket.
He 'Drsw the blanket as planned, but il
fell SO as only partially to cover the
BODY Copeland lodged behind the
tree, expecting TO run back and com
plSte his work, but the confederates,
noticing his movement, concentrated
their IRE on the tree behind which he
stood and he could make no movement
toward Club, nor could he get back TO
the breastworks.
Corporal McCue a little later made
a dash forward toward another tree

| special volley and kept up the fire so
| steadily that he could not get back.
This was the situation for long time,
the bullets coming from the enemy

blanket over Club with spiteful sharp
little spats. Finally Copeland, after
wearing himself out in returning the
fire of the confederates, sat down with

going TO take things easy and have n

danger n confederate bullet went
through the toe of the shoe, cutting the
leader of the big toe.
"The corporal scrambled into the
breastworks in a state of mind. When
his shoe was removed his big toe stood
straight up from the foot, and even
when the operation was performed it
still stood up. To the very last il made
him cripple and was so much of an

while he was asleep he would murder
him in cold blood"

A.ked a Hard anestion.

The following story, coming from
Northampton, England, which is rep
resented in parliament by Henry La
bouchere, is not one of that gentle
mans favorites, but is vouched for as
true. One of. '.Labby'sn constituents,
a homely workman, is responsible
for it: -
"one of my mates" said he, ''has a
little invalid girl that's very thought
full, and the questions she asks are most
surprising. Shed often heard Bill talk
ing to the missis about the war and
who was to blame for it, and one night
she says:
Daddy, did God make Labby?
'And Bill he thought a bit and saws:
"'Yes, love-I suppose So he rays.
$50 she thought a bit more and she
-ays:
"'What for, daddy?'
bill was never sc staggered. He put
his considering cap on, but it was no
good. E
Its surprising what hard questions
children CAP ~ask.''-Chicago Times.

THE OLDEST SOLDIER.
"Uncie Dan" whippIe of MichiGa an
Who Was n Friend OF KAT
Carson.

There seems to be less discussion as
to who was the oldest veteran at the
recent encampment than there is over
the question as 10 who is the baby
of the grand army. "Uncle Dan" Whip
pie seems TO have an undisputed claim,
in the matter of age. He nails from
Traverse City, Mich, and was leo years
old March 1. He is member of the
Mcpherson post, No. IS.
"Cncle DAM has had a remarkable
career. He spent the greater part of
his life in the far west as hunter,
trapper and Indian fighter. Born in
New York of Quaker parents. he went
west early in life, when his father
joined the Lewis and Clark expedition
TO explore the Rockies. When he was
% years old ne sailed into Fort Dear
born, the present site of Chicago.
Pushing westward, he reached the Mis-
souri,, where he hunted and trapped
for many years ft
The romance of Uncle Dams" life
occurred in northern Minnesota, when
he fell in love with Laura Pierson, the
daughter of frontiersman. They
were to have been married, but both
were captured by the Indians. The
girl was tortured to death, but Whip
pie, by the aid of squaw, escaped.
He buried his sweetheart's body and
swore over the grave to avenge her.
Following the tribe for months, he
killed every Indian in the band that
had tortured the girl. Whipple had
many narrow escapes, and rescued
many people from the Indians after
ward.
Whipple Joined the union forces when
the civil war broke out. With his
friend, Kit Carson, he enlisted for three
months, but served during the entire
war. Afterward he went back to his
hunting. He is still spry and marched
in the procession with the rest.
