boys. He also stated that he wish
ed me to present the flag with lit
tie speech, to WHICH the captain
could reply, and that. he and few
friends, ladies and gentlemen, would
be present at 7 O'Clock sharp on the
White House grounds. The Presi-
dent then left, and l fastened to
find Capt. Scott and convey to him
the message. He was delighted at
the sight of the flag but very much
alarmed at the idea of trying to
make speech. "Why, Sergeant, !"
he said, "I know l shall be unable
to say a single word. l wouldn't
mind it if it were only before the
President, but to think, there will
be Mrs. Lincoln and lot of ladies
and officers, and how can say any
thing before a crowd of such peo-
ple?" While trembling, myself, at
the thought of the crowds and be-
ing compelled to speak before them,
yet l tried to encourage the boy,
who was only few years younger
than myself. Boys though we were,
said we were soldiers, and the first
duty of good soldier was to obey
orders, so we should do the best we
could.
Early the next morning l went
over to the company's rendezvous
and found them all present and in
fine spirits. The captain had pre-
pared little speech for the occa-
sion and committed it to memory.
He asked to see mine but l had
none, for l knew that at the critical
moment l couldn't think of word
of it to save my life. Impressing
upon the mind of the captain to be
, careful to have his company on the
grounds five minutes before the
time, l returned to prepare myself
for the ordeal, feeling that the cap.
tain and myself would rather charge
on the rebel troops at the other end
of the bridge than to face that audi
ence, trying to make speech.
By half past six the Marine Band
had arrived and handsome carriages
began to roll up to the main en-
trance of the grounds with theil
loads of elegantly dressed ladies and
gentlemen. Officers in gold lace
came riding up with changing swords
and soon a crowd of several hund
red had arrived. Five minutes be,
fore the time the Junior Guards
marched into the grounds in perfect
order and were greeted with an ova-
ton, the ladies waving their hand
kerchiefs and the gentlemen cheer
ing and waving their hats. Capt.
Scott and his company were worthy
of their generous greeting. They
now mustered forty strong and in
their neat uniforms they actually
looked splendid, and their soldierly
bearing and perfect alignment drew
hearty praises from all. The time
having arrived, the Guards were
drawn up to form three sides of a
square, the band and as many spec
tators as could do so crowding in on
the other side. The President and
Mrs. Lincoln entered the square
and were seated near the right OF
the company, where stood Captain
Scott. The presentation of colors
then took place, the whole forming
very impressive scene-the noble
mansion, the beautiful grounds, the
fashionable gathering of richly
dressed ladies, the brilliant uni
forms of the many officers present
the clock-like precision of the move
ments of the young Guards, and the

 ProsDector: Yesterday d most re. markable accident occurred on the A. & $. E. railroad opposite the depot at Fairbank station. A freight train was coming along at full speed and when near the depot an air hose was uncoupled in some unaccount- able monner thus setting all the brakes which almost instantly stop ped the train. One flat car was broke in two and piled on the top of another both trucks lodging between the draw head of the two succeeding cars. Fortunately nobody was hurt and no damage done except to the cars.
 Florence Blade: Judge W. H. Griffin placed upon our table, Monday, sam ples of peaches from his orchard, which matured without irrigation. The last irrigation given these trees was just after they had blossomed. The trees are seedlings, developed by the Judge from a mixture of several well known varieties of the peach, family. He has succeeded in produc- ing peach, not only Of exquisite flavor, but one that will resist both drought and frost to a remarklble ex- tent. The fruit is not large but the yield of each tree is great.

reporter for the Freie Presse, was
awakened by a scream from his wife,
who cried that there was. burglar in
the house. Mr.. Buehler sprang from
his bed and running out into the hall
way, found a burly negro standing at
the head of the stairway in shirt
sleeves and stocking feet. Mr.. Buehler
grabbed the intruder and hustled him
down stairs.
The negro begged to be released, but
Mr. Buehler refused to comply with
his request, and gave the alarm. The
negro made a bolt to escape and fell
down the front steps, striking his head
on the pavement The blow stunned
him and he lay on the pavement for
several minutes, during which time a
neighbor came out and felled him as
he was getting up from the sidewalk.
This put the burglar asleep until the
police came and arrested him. He
was arraigned in City Court this morn
ing, but owing to the seriousness OF
the charge and the absence of several
important witnesses, the case was con-
tined until tomorrow morning. The
prisoner gives his name as Harry c.

POLISH CATHOLICS LOYAL
Denounce The Att, mpt of Assassin TO
End the Pre- side nts Life

End the Pre- side nts Life
Following are the resolutions, in
full adopted by the Polish Catholics
of the city;
The resolutions were as follows:
Whereas. The world stanus aghast
at the dastardly attempt to assassinase
president Mckinley, whose character
as a man and conduct as a public Of
fetal has justly endeared him to every
person fortunate enough to live in the
Republic Of which he is the honored
head; and
Whereas. We, the Polish Roman
Catholics Of Wilmington, appreciating
the liberaity of American laws in af-
fOrding an asylum here for citizens Of
foreign lands, view this dastardly
crime with especial horror but pro-
testing that the wretch who fired the
shot at our great and good President
has nothing in common with the Pol
ish people who, under the teachings Of
the Roman Catholic Church, hold it a
religious duty 10 manifest a spirit of
loyalty and obedience to the duly con-
stitrted authorities of the Republic;
therefore, be it
Resolved That this wretched
wou.d-be assassin in no way represents
the sentiments Of true Poles toward
the Government Of the United States
but that by his dastardly deed he has
brought reproach on a liberty-loving
and law-abiding race whose history
has been favorably linked with Ameri-
can liberty since Kosciush stood
with Washington at it's cradle: and
That remebering our oath of allie
glance we earnestly renew our obliga.
tion TO support the laws and Consti.
tuition Of the United States and hold
ourselves ready at all times to cooper.
ate with our fellow countrymen to ex
tirpate from our midst this nest O.
