Twelve Thousand Heroes.


Why the Government awarded no

was told at Washington that the
reason the regimental officers did mot
receive the Medal Of Honor, for which
they were recommended on account Of
their bravery at the charge Of San
Juan Hill, says Richard Harding Dav-
is, in Everybody's Magazine, was be.
cause the Government argued that If
it gave the medal to one man there
was no good reason why It should not
give it to twelve thousand. A virtue
which is shared in common by twelve
thousand men must be common vir-
tue. AS a matter Of fact the members
of the Knickerbocker Club in the
Rough Riders Regiment and the negro
regulars, who, had they not been SOL
diers, would have been BARRIERS and
servants, reached the top Of the hill at
exactly the same time. That is not
said in belittlement Of courage, GER
tainly not of this particular exhibition
of it, which was to me one Of the most
moving and magnificent spectacles OF
a lifetime, but rather to suggest that
we have cause for congratulation In
the fact that the proportion Of brave
men is 50 great. One might almost
say that all men are brave.

SHOOTS AN ALABAMA JUDGE.

Jesse Bcale Wounds Man Who Was Pro.
tecting His Intended Victim.
Montgomery, Ala.-Thomas n. Nc
Clellan, Chief Justice OF the Supreme
Court Of Alabama, was shot here by
Jesse Beale, prominent citizen
Judge Mcclellan was struck in the
right shoulder, the bullet shattering
the shoulder blade.
The shooting was the sequel to q
rather sensational affair. Judge Nc
Clellan was trying to prevent Beale
from shooting John Mcqueen, a solici
tor of Jefferson County, who was in the
house. 1t had been reported to Beale
that his daughter, Caroline, had been
out all night in a cab with Mcqueen
Upon hearing this the enraged father,
accompanied by his son, Phelan, armed
with pistols and shotguns, went to
McClellan's house after Mcqueen.
It later developed that Miss Beale
and Mcqueen had taken tea at res
tauran:, and while on the way home
decided to get married. About mid.
night they drove to the residence of
Judge Of Probate CASTOR and re-
quested a marriage license. Judge
Castor refused, under the circum-
stances, and the couple spent the bal
ance Of the night searching for JUS
tice of the Peace to marry them,
Failing in this, Miss Beale staid at o
girl friends house and Mcqueen went
to McClellan's residence.
Miss Beale and Mcqueen were mar.
ried and left on bridal trip to New
Orleans.
The Beals, father and son, are held
to await the result Of Judge McClel
lan's injuries.

Thu G.ntls Art NJ Letter Writing.

which fill the bag Of the letter carrier.
The love letter, we presume. still holds
its sway, and, If we are to judge from
the revelations of breach Of promise
cases, 1t Is full of sugary sentimental
ism as in the days .of Lydia Languish..
But the letter as 1t has passed into lit
erature, the letter whose highest claim
to be treated as art is that 1t conceals
art. the letter as written by William
Cowper, or Oliver Goldsmith, or Hor-

charming epistle intended only for the.
afectionate perusal of friends, and yet
Of such value to the historian Of life
and manners-shall we say that it has
disappeared from the busy modern
world, killed by the railway and the:

social soil.

ROBBERS MAKE RICH HAUL
Steal Express Safe. With $4,000
From Railway Platform.
Authorities of Iowa Town Where Crime
Occurred Say They Have Two
Men Who Committed 1t.

Sioux City, 1owa.-Prompt and active
work by the authorities at Manila,
Iowa, resulted in the arrest of three
men who are supposed to have been
implicated in the theft of a United
States Express Company safe which
contained about $4,000.
The Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul
train in which the safe was taken
from Sioux City arrived at Manila at
500 o'clock p. m. The Omaha train
was late, and James Sturtevant, of
Sioux City, the express messenger, did
not hurry in unloading the goods and
packages from his car. The express
safe, with other articles. was unload
ed and placed on truck on the sta
tion platform, and then Sturtevant and
the baggageman went to the other end
of the platform to get another truck
load. When Sturtevant returned he
noticed that the articles on the truck
were disarranged, and q glance showed
that the iron box was gone.
There was great excitement, and no
time was lost In spreading the alarm.
City Marshal Ferrill hastily Assem-.
bled posse and vigorous work was
begun. Snow lay thick upon the
ground. and 1t did not take long to dis
cover the tracks Of two persons, who
evidently had been carrying some
heavy object, directly from the truck
as 1t stood upon the depot platform.
They carried the safe a distance of
about two blocks. and then loaded 1t
into q wagon, which had been left
there in waiting.
The wagon was driven a mile and q
half into the country and there the
safe was forced open and the contents
were distracted. The men there aban.
doned the safe and went their way on
new track. 1t was not difficult to
trace them, however, and three ar.
rests were made. Their names are
John Jackson, John Stovalt and Chas.
Hayes. All are men who live at Ma
nila and are we'll known. Their repu-
tations heretofore have not been bad
They stoutly protest their innocence,
but the authorities believe the evidence
against at least two Of them will prove
conclusive. The three prisoners are in
jail, having been unable to furnish
bonds of $4,000 each.
The authorities say the shoes Of two
IF the men exactly fit the tracks In the
snow at the station where the safe was
carried off.
The stolen safe contained III the
neighborhood of $40,0UU Twelve thou
sand dollars was in cash and the re-
noindor in drafts checks and various
valuables.
None Of the money or valuables
has been recovered.
