A CLEVER RUSE.
How n Cavalryman Provided Him
self With n Horse.

self with n Horse.
The Confederate cavalryman was Of
ten puzzled as to how to provide him
self with horse. The authorities gave
him the choice to keep mounted or go
into the ranks with his musket, as
horses were not furnished by the gov
eminent. To be dismounted and be
come a foot soldier was worse to him
than a court martial, and he would
risk much In his efforts to get horse
from the enemy. In the fall of 1868
rebel cavalryman had his horse killed
In n skirmish near Warrenton, and as
his best chance was then to capture
one from the enemy he put his wits to
work to devise the ways and means.
He was with the outside pickets, and
not far off, on the pike. We're the cav
airy pickets of the enemy. He pro-
cured a piece of telegraph wire from
the railroad, and when twilight came
on he stretched this across the road,
fastening one end to the fence and the
other end to convenient tree just high
enough to catch cavalryman about
the belt. When matters were thus ar
ranged to his liking, he started down
the pike and stopped In plain view of
the enemy.
1t was not long before three of them
gave chase mounted on good horses It
was now too dark for them to see the
wires, and ON they came, determined
to have a prisoner. The chase was
sharp and quickly over, so that by the
time the rebel schemer had passed
through and under his trap the enemy
was upon him.
The sequel is not hard to guess. Two
of the pursuers were quickly and most
unceremoniously endorsed. and the
third was so much astonished and
frightened at their fate as to turn and
beat hasty retreat. The two horses
without their riders continued down
the road and were easily captured by
the Confederate, who by his clever ruse
became their owner and kept his place
In his cavalry.
The two pickets, left to themselves,
hurriedly made their way back to their
comrades as crestfallen and astonished
as two men could well be- The hero
of this incident tells the tale himself
and adds lie rode one of these horses
to AppomattoX and from there to his
home and that ii was one of the best
he ever owned.-Washingto Post.

Death of Capt. Romtelle.

A dispatch was received at Bangor, at
3 O'Clock Tuesday afternoon, announc.
ing the death of Hon. Charles A.
Boutele at the Mclean Sanitarium.
Waverley, Mass
Capt. Charles Addison Boutelle was
born at Damariscotta Me-, Feb. 9, 1889.
He participated in several naval engage
ments during the Civil War and at the
close of the conflict entered the field of
journalism in Bangor. For many years
he was the managing editor and proprie-
tor of the " hig & Courier For nearly
20 years he was member of Congress
from the 4th Maine district.
Mr. Boutelle's illness dates from Dec
81, 1899, when he was seized by a fit of
Inconsistencies while at "A hotel in Ban
gor. He was carried to his room and
later became delriOus. At midnight it
was announced that Mr. Boutele was
suffering from an attack of congestion
of the brain which, it was hoped, would
be only temporary. He was, later,
taken to his home IN Bangor, but on the
succeeding Monday, he was brought to
Boston on the midnight train and taken
to the Mclean Asylum at Waverley,
where he had since remained His
mental condition, it is stated, had i'm
proved considerably. The disease, how
ever, was too far advanced to permit Of
the treatment being permanently etfec-
tive. The ext Congressman is survived
by three daughters. His age was %

Andrew Carnegie, after few weeks
rest from making public gifts, has re-
sumed operations in his native country,
Scotland. He has just given $4,000, 900
to establish free education in the Scotch
Universities of Edinburgh, Aberdeen and
st. Andrews. He stipulates that the
beneficiaries be his Scottish fellow
countrymen" only-no English, Irish,
colonials or foreigners. The fund will
apply to medical as well as to CONNER
cial education and will be placed in the
hands of trustees. This is a variation
from his benefactions in this country
when the large SUNG were given almost
wholly for free public libraries. This
money will be none the less acceptable
because it was made in America.

a constitutional convention is in ses-
sion at Montgomery, Alabama, and is up
against the problem, how best to elimi-
nate the negro vote and not run afoul
the amendments to the constitution of
the United States. This is not a new
problem in southern states. Most of
them have practically accomplished it,
whether they will succeed in reaping all
the advantages they expect may be a
question. There is no doubt about their
violation of the supreme law of the land
in spirit, but whether they can keep with.

Gen. Fitz-John Porter died at his
home in Morristown, n. j., the 2lst
instant. He was nearly so years old.
His death brings to mind the protracted
controversy over his army course and
the great struggle he made for vindica-
ton. He was relieved by Gen. Pope in
the presence of the enemy on Nov. Il,
1862, and charged with disobedence OF
orders, failing to attack the enemy and
with retreating before the enemy. He
was court-martialed and dismissed from
the army. He made long, stubborn
fight before the President and Congress
and was at last indicated by court OF
inquiry composed of Generals Schofeld
Terry and Getty, and General Grant in
1881, after months careful considera.
ton, reversed his opinion sustaining the
judgment of the Court-martial. A bill
removing the disabilities was then pass
ed by Congress, but was vetoed by
President Arthur on the ground that II
was beyond the authority of Congress
to pass it. Another bill was passed il
1856, restoring General Porter to his
rank in the army. No event created
greater interest in army circles at thai
time than this prolonged controversy.

The Boston journal of Tuesday came
out with broadside in the advocacy of
The license system of Boston, and ex-
hibits actual alarm for its safety. 1t
deprecates hostile legislation and alleges
a possibility of no. license vote in that
city. The article urges the disaster
that would come to the S., 100000 in
vested in the business in the city and
SIS, 100000 invested in breweres and
distilleries, 5000 people thrown out of
employment, shrinkage of $2,000,0 900 in
rents, damage to express companies,
electric light plants, and bad effect upon
various lines of business and upon a
variety of people not directly interested.
There is no question but prohibition or
the vote, no-license, in Boston would
greatly disturb things for a while but
the idleness, crime and loss occasioned
by the use of liquors to the value of
more than $10,000,000 annually, would
many times offset this disturbance, in
public benefit. The article shows a
labored effort and is convincing only to
those who want to be convinced. There
is no such good news, as we view it, as
danger to the Boston liquor business
from the source the journal fears.

The withdrawal of American troops
from China seems to be in accord with
the sentiment entertained by people in
this country, generally. They do not
believe in keeping China under the DOM
ination of foreign military forces but
10 giving the old nation a chance to re.
cuperate and exist on .the face of the
earth. There are plenty of pretexts for
keeping an army there, but the Admins.

for such course. The position taken
by the United States government in
Chinese affairs is a bright page in hel

The strike of machinsts throughout
large portion of the United States for
nine hour day is movement on the
largest scale of any of the kind for some
years. 1t is variously estimated to effect
$4,000 to 1901 900 skilled workmen and If
the strike is general it will be difficult to
get men to fill the vacant places and for
employers to hold out against this de-
mand. Indeed it appears that many
have already conceded the demand and
kept Their men at work. As a matter of
fact if men will work right up sharp,
nine hours, in most lines they can do
about as much as they ought to for one
day, and more than some do in ten hours
where their great object is to get in the
time without regard to the interest of
employer.

The great strike of car conductors and
motormen of Albany, N. Y, was settled,
Saturday last, after two business men of
the city were shot and killed, after much
injury to others with much damage and
loss. Bloodshed seemed to sober leaders
on both sides of the contest and cause
them to become reasonable human
beings instead of representatives of a
soulless corporation on one side, and
mad members of union with little sense
or reason on the other. 1t seems to be
high time for the enactment of laws
requiring all parties in such controver-
sizes to submit to arbitration. Corpora
tons and their agents are creatures of
law and get their powers by virtue of
their charters and should be amenable
to law and abide by it. Labor unions,
likewise, should be subject to the pro-
visions of the statutes, the strong arm of
the State should step in at the inception
OF the issue and say: You, corpora.
tions and unions, must behave yourselves
and settle this difficulty. 1t must be
arbtrated and that without delay and
before riot, violence and broken heads
intervene. Fortunately, the Albany
strike is ended by conference, and con-
cession on both sides. 1t has become
history. How much better would it
have been if the element of tragedy
the sacrifice of human lives-could have
been left out of the story. 1t is too late
in the day for riot and mob rule to pre-
