Not T. ". oartar. Of Orange.

Mr.. w. A. Trout, OF Front Royal, Va,
writes TO the Sun under date Of Jan
uary 21:
"In today's Sun yoUrcOrrespondent at
fredericksburg, Va, states that the gal
liant Carter, who was hanged at Front
Royal on September %, 1864, by the
order OF General Custer, Of the Federal
Army, and whose name is now inscribed
on the monument at this place erected to
the memory Of the heroes who fell on
that day, is now alive and well and is
postmaster at Orange. Your correspon-
dent claims that Mr.. T. W. Carter, OF Or
ange, formerly a member Of MOsby's
command, is the man the people OF War
rem and his comrades have intended to
honor, but that we are alittle premature.
II have no doubt Mr.. T. W. Carter is
entitled to all the honor that a true SOL
der deserves, but he is not the man who
is buried in Prospect Hill Cemetery, and
whose name, with the names OF other
brave men, is inscribed on the monument
there erected. When this monument was
erected the first name of Carter could not
be obtained, and is consequently left
blank in the inscription. There was an
effort made to obtain his full name, but
after the lapse Of so many years, and so
many OF his comrades having answered
the last roll call, it was found impossible
to do 80. His first name may have been
known to but few members OF his COM
mand, as Mosby's Battalion consisted of
l 900 men, collected from all over the Con-
federacy. However, it is hardly possible
that Mr.. T. W. Carter, Of Orange, was
the only Carter among the 900.
81 may add that with two Of Mosby,s
men-Mr. Frank Angelo, Of -AlesEndria,
Va, and Mr.. Thomas Sealock, of Linden,
Va-and an old negro, was present at
the cutting down Of Carter and his com
rade, aud | assure you we wei, not tax
ing time to ask questions that day, but
keeping O careful lookout for Yankees
while we performed our mournful task.
was afterward informed that the names
of the two men were Carter and OVERLY.
have never heard this scontradicted, and
it has been confirmed by their comrades
in the erection OF the monument before
mentioned and the inscription Of their
names with others npon it.
IL congratulate Mr. T. w. Carter, Of
Orange, that he is not the Carter, who
was present at the Custer massacre at
Front Royal, and hope he will not need
monument to his memory for many
years. ."-Balto. Sun.

How Nebraskans Came to be Called
Bug Eaters.

"We are trying very hard to change
the title by which natives OF Nabraska
are known" said Mr.. f. E. Gillespie, ol
Lincoln, Nebr., at the Raleigh. "As you
probably know, the people who are Tor
tunate enough to have been born in opr
State are called 'Bugeaters'. The new
title we are trying to assume is Tree
Planters" The latter is gaining little
foothold out West, among the people
who know Nebraska and appreciate her,
but down here it's still Bug Eater
"By the way" continued Mr. Gillespie,
"did you ever hear how we got that
title? That's a good story. OF course,
you know we had a terrible plague OF
grasshoppers in Nebraska in the seventies
They ate up everything from the cattle
to rail fences and that's no dream,
either. A correspondent Of an Eastern
paper was touring the West and happen
ed to cross the State during the plague
He saw nothing but grasshoppers, and
concluded the people must live on them.
In writing back to his paper he referred
to the natives as Bug Eaters, and Bug
Eaters we have been ever since.
81 was very young at the time
OF the plague, aud only remember it in
distinctly. | know the year before we
had such an enormous corn crop that
we burned corn because it was cheaper
than coal and wood. We lived on corn
for about year; corn cakes, corn meal,
corn pone, corn bread, and corn fritters.
acquired an aversion for corn that
| have never recovered from. The next
season along came the grasshoppers and
ate the corn crop, ears, stalk, tassel, and
all, clean to the ground in few days,
and we didn'thave even corn to eat that
year.
81 don't exaggerate one bit--and any
one who was out there at the time will
confirm me-when say that the grass
hoppers were so thick that when they
passed over community it seemed like
total eclipse ofthe sun. Youcould look
at fine field of several hundred acres Of
corn standing as hign as the head OF a
man on horseback and almost see it dis
appear. A swarm OF millions and mil
lions Of grasshoppers would light on it,
and in two hours the field would be eaten
clean to the stalks roots. There were
several instances oicattle being attacked
and killed. and know Of one or two
communities where railroad ties and rail
fences suffered. Wash. Post.
