AS to the plot. there was none. An
attempt to exploit it would be like trying
to find needle in the proverbial hay

structed for laughing purposes only, and
it most certainly achieved its object.
Messrs. Murray and Mack never APP
peared to better advantage than In this
production. That they were popular was
evidenced by the hearty reception ac-
corded them throughout the comedy:
that they were humorous was demon
strated by the laughter that punctuated
almost every line they uttered: that the

W. IDING ON a raid in wartime
gives the troopers engaged q
EA taste Of the real romance and
"a excitement Of war. If the
ride happens to be over the
border into a peaceful territory of the
enemy, as was the case when John
Morgan's Kentucky band crossed Cum.
berland river from Tennessee into
their native state July 8, 1862, so much
the better for romance. And there
were enough Yankee swords and bayo.
nets along the route to furnish excite
ment for the invading host.
Morgan's men were Kentuckians
who had gone over to the Confederacy,
and, their state remaining neutral, the
only way to serve the southern cause
was to fight with the armies outside
Of it. After the southern repulse at
Shiloh in April the leaders in the west
once more cast their eyes eagerly upon
Kentucky, which had been wholly lost
to them by the victories of Thomas and
Grant in January and February, 1862,
General Bragg headed his battalions
toward the Kentucky border. His start.
ing point was Chattanooga, on the
southern border of Tennessee. About
the center of east Tennessee the Con-
federates, under General Kirby Smith,
held Knoxville, and Morgan rode out
as the advance guard of Smiths to test
the temper Of the Kentucky people and
the mettle of the boys in blue who
were guarding the strategic points be-
yond the Ohio.
With 900 troopers Morgan forded the
Cumberland the afternoon of July 8. A
band of Federal soldiers had watched
the approach of the invaders, but kept
out of sight, and Morgan rushed for
ward to the first post of the enemy
which lay in his pathway. This was
the village of Tompkinsville. garri-
soned by about 200 men of the Ninth
Pennsylvania cavalry under Major T..
J. Jordan.
1t was Jordan's band that Morgan
heard of, but didn't see at the ford.
Jordan had news of Morgan's coming
and went to the river to meet him. 1t
was all game of hide and seek, for
Jordan marched back to Tompkinsville,
seeing nothing of the enemy.
Early on the morning of July 8 the
Pennsylvania troopers were aroused to
prepare for action. While they were
feeding and cleaning their mounts the
camp was alarmed by picket firing
out on the river road. Before the horses
could be saddled Jordan's pickets re-
ported a heavy attack, and MOrgan's
line could already be seen deploying
around the camp. In an hour the place
was surrounded, and Morgan's horse
battery began to toss shells into Temp
kinsville.
While the guns were playing on the
astounded Federals the Kentucky
troopers formed for a charge and
dashed In. Major Jordan saw that he
was ontnumbered and gave the order
to retreat. Morgan had sent the Texas
rangers around to the rear of Jordan's
line, but the Pennsylvanians charged
CALAMITY through. The rangers rallied
and pursued the retreating Federals,
and in a rear guard fight Jordan was
captured and Lieutenant Sullivan, COM
handing the firing line. was killed.
Within a few hours after Morgan's
blow at Tompkinsville the telegraph
wires were hot with dispatches telling
