WHAT UNDER FIRE. MEANS.
Twelve Hours of Agony That seemed
Like Years.

Like Years.
The following are extracts from a
letter from a sergeant in the Seaforth
highlanders, dated Dec. 10, says the
London Telegraph: "The Black Watch
in front made an attempt to charge
the position, but we had to retire and
simply run for it, the enemy blazing
at us all the way and cropping our
FELLOWS like skittles from their splen-
did positions. There was nothing for
it but to lie down and pretend to be
dead, and this l did about $3.50 a. M.
till, / presume, 6 p. m, the sun pour
ing down on me all the time. and moi
a drink of water all day, and dare not
stir hand or foot, and expecting every
minute to be my last. I could hear
nothing but the cries, means and
prayers OF the wounded all around me,
but l daren't so much as look I'D to see
who they were. Shots and shells
were going over me all day from the
enemy and our side, and plenty of
them striking within a yard of mel
mean bullets, not shells-and yet they
never hit me. l believe some OF the
fellows lost their heads and walked
right up to the enemy's place, singing
till they dropped them. One youngster
lying close to me said he would make
a dart for it about 3 p. m. / tried my
best to persuade him not to, but he
would go. A couple of seconds later
l could hear them pitting at him, and
then his groans for about a minute,
and then he vas quiet. About this
time the sun began to get fearfully
hot, and / began to feel it in the legs,
which were now very painful and
swollen, because I was parched with
thirst. Most of the wounded round
me had ceased groaning by this time.
AS it began to get dark l managed to
wriggle my body through the shrub
further back, and after 1 had been at
it some time, on looking up, found my
self right in front of another in
trenchment Of the enemy. They sent
a few rounds at me, but they struck
just in front and ricocheted over my
head. After a bit, it getting darker, I
got up and walked by, and there was
nothing but dead highlanders all over
the place"

Work ON Mining Claims.

The provisions Of the United States
Revised Statutes requiring a certain
amount of work to be performed or
improvements made during each year
on each mining claim located after
May 10, 1872, and until a patent issue
therefor apply as well to that class of
claims known as placer claims as to
the class known as lode or vein claims.
The law provides that "the period
within which the work required to be
done annually on all unpatented
claims shall commence on the LIST day
of January succeeding the date of To-
cation of such claim"

v HER CALICO.
200" Wheeler's Heart Touched by q
Little Girls Tears.

During the civil war there was a
town in Tennessee that became very
familiar with both the union and the
confederate armies. Sometimes the
town was under control of one and
sometimes of the other. The town had
an equal number Of union and confed-
crate sympathizers, who named the
principal streets Jeff Davis and Linz
coin streets, the people living on these
streets taking this way of expressing
their attachments. Each army, as it
passed through the town, took from it's
enemies all it could get. Sometimes
the soldiers made mistakes, and took
from their friends. One day a detach-
ment of confederate cavalry followed
a detachment Of union soldiers
through the town. They entered a
store the proprietor of which was a
southerner, who had hidden from the
union forces. No one was in the store
but a little girl Of IL, who had fire.
quently played southern airs when
southern soldiers were in town, to
cheer them. On one of the shelves of
the store were several yards of calico,
which had been promised this little
girl for a dress. This was quite an
expensive dress, then, for calico was
sold at 81 a yard, and was not easy
TO get even at that price. When the
soldier took this calico and threw 1t
across his horse and rode away, the
little girl cried SO hard that a young
officer heard her. He hurried into the
store, but the little girl could not tell
why she cried. A neighbor, a young
girl of 20, hurried across the street,
and told the officer that a soldier had
taken the calico intended for the little
girls dress. The officer called the men
to Haiti" He demanded that the man
who had taAen the calico should i'm
mediately bring it to him. A burly
soldier got off his horse and looking
ashamed, handed the booty to his Off
Ger, who, with a bow, gave it to the
little girl. She could hardly believe
her good fortune when she held the
calico in her arms. This young officer
became the celebrated Gen. Joe"

proportions and the cords Of the neck

Mississippi. The special Providence
which is said to watch over drunken

MAX NoRDAU AT HOME.
Lives Above a Drinking Shop In Plainly
Fashioned Rooms.

Fashioned Rooms.
Max Nordau lives in Paris above a
drinking shop. 1t appears that the
name "Nordau" was originally used by
it's owner as a pseudonym to news
paper contributions. With the con
sent of his father, Herr Sudfeld, a
well-known Pesth Hebraist, he legally
assumed it, transforming himself from
""South Field (Sudfeld) into North
Meadow" .(Nordau), says Literary Life.
Except when he is visiting his patients,
DR.. Nardau spends all his time in his
study. This room is plainly furnished.
A bookcase is one of its conspicuous
features. Among the books are many
presentation copies of Lombroso's
works. With this author and scientist
DR.. Nordau keeps up a constant CORE
s%pondence and prides himself on be-
ing one of the very few men in Europe
who can dicipher the professors hand
writing, which appears to most people
entirely illegible. Leading out Of this
room is Nordau's barely furnished bed
room, the camp bedstead Of which may
be seen through the open door. A
small trapeze hanging through the
doorway would seem to indicate that he
has faith in "parlor gymnastics" It
is in this room that all books since the
publication of Degeneration" have
been written, and where he is at pres
ent writing a novel.

Under the cheering influence Of GER

Guess it was your own foot as much
as a rabbits foot" remarked the doc
tor.

ShOtt and Mott.

The story of these gentlemen and
their duel-a famous one formerly-is
revived, and the tale is thus repeated:
A duel was lately fought in Texas by
Alexander Shot and John S. Mott.
Mott was shot, and Shott was not. In
this case it is better to be Shot than
Mott. There was a rumor that Mott
was not shot, but Shot avows that
he was not, which proves either that
the shot Shot shot at Mott was not
shot, or that Mott was shot notwith-
standing. 1t may be made to appear
on trial that the shot Shott shot shot
Mott, or, as accidents with firearms
are frequent, it may be possible that
the shot Shott shot shot Shot him
The Dupuyer acantha. [volume] (Dupuyer, Mont.) 1894-1904, 1900-08-23

self, when the whole affair would re-
solve itself into it's original element,
and Shot would be shot and Mott
would be not. We think, however,
that the shot Shot shot shot, not
Shot, but Mott. Anyway, 1t is hard
to tell who was shot.

The borough council held its regular
meeting in the borough building on
South Blakely street last ni-ht and
transacted considerable business in n
short time. The fire committee report
cd that hydrant shipped to the bor-
ough and taken from the Erie and wy
omng Valley railroad station for use,
had been found. upon trial. to be crack
ed. 1t was decided to return the same
to the company to be repaired or re-
placed.
The bond of Street Commissioner Nc
Donnell was read and approved. The
grievance committee reported that the
culvert on Green Ridge street was
blocked and caused water to run into
the Easements of property owners at
the junction of Webster and Green
Ridge streets. The street commission
er was ordered to- see tc the righting
of the difficulty. 1t was decided that
councils should view the streets of the
borough next Tuesday.
Treasurer Wahler reported that there
was no money in the treasury to pay
borough orders. II was decided to
borrow money sufficient to meet the
current expenses. A discussion follow
ed regarding the amount of money
lately borrowed by the treasurer. Bur
CESS Burschel stated that the treasur-
er should report every time lie bor-
rowed money and that he thought
bonds could be issued for 4 per
cent. instead of paying Il bank per
cent.
The matter was decided by council
ordering the treasurer to report when,
for how much and where all money
was borrowed. Council then adjourned.
