80 THE IMITATOR &c
AN ANONYMOUS NOVEL

This novel ran its course serially in the Mirror
during the summer months of 1901 attracting
much attention because of the supreme clever
ness of its style.
The novel is very biting satire upon some
of the follies of swell society literary pretenders
and theatrical celebrities.
Certain ofits chdracrers have been identified
by those familiar with the Four Hundr ed, with
contemporary letters and the drama as being
mercilessly drawn after originals in the field

WHISKY SAVED MCCLELLAN

One sad incident Of this seven
days of great battle is not gener-
ally known, either North or
South, except by a few old Con
federates who may yet live to
shed tears over its remem orance,
and can testify to its truth wheth-
er or not it be recorded by any
historian.
In the seventh and last com bat
at Malvern Hill, which was des.
perately contested and the losses
appalling on each side, General
Lee, in anticipation, had ordered
General Magruder's division in a
position to effectively cut off Gen
eral McClellan's retreat in case
he was here defeated, which was
done, and every one who knew
the situation confidently expect
ed to surround and capture the
entire remaining Federal forces.
AS General Lees courier has.
tened to order Magruder's divi.
sion to move and cut off the re.
treat, he was so beactly drunk as
to be able to say nothing but
"Charge 'em ! Charge .'em :" and
thus Mcclellan was allowed to
reach his gunboats in safety on
the James river, and rob Lee and
his veterans of one of the grand
est victories that had ever been
so hard fought for for so many
days, and actually won but for
this shameful and criminal ne.
glect TO move a man or fire gun
in order to grasp complete vic
tory in the capture of the entire
Grand Army. General Lee and
his comrades who knew it could
but weep in bitter disappoint-
ment.-Captain j. p. Bridger. of
