Phras. Coined ny Gen. Grant.

"By the way" said Capt. Mum,
Gen. Grant coine1 a good many
phrases that have come into very
general use. In January, 1862, and
three others were with General Grant
when he made a reconnaissance
from Fort Holt to Columbus, KY.
Near the latter place the fly of a tent
lad been spread, and under this Cen
Grant and myself were awaiting the
return of scout whom Grant had sent
forward to discover whether there
were any signs of the enemy.
I'VE had not waited long when the
scout rode up in a state of great ex-
element, his horse fairly covered
with foam. Gen. Grant went out
quietly to meet him, and after few
moments conversation returned to the
tent as quietly as he had gone and
said to me and the others. We must
get out of here or we will be gobbled
up That was the first time 1 ever
heard the expression used in that way,
and have always believed that Grant
originated it, just as be originated the
phrase bottle up which he applied to
General Butler later in the war. We
rode away quietly brs rapidly, Gen.
Grant showing no excitement over his
narrow escape from the clutches of
the enemy-"-Chicago Inter-Ocean-

Needs of to- National Guards.

Unanimous support is given by prom

Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Michigan and

in congress for increasing the efficiency
of the militia. The citizen-soldiers say
the bill, if it becomes a law, is bound
to improve the service, at the same
time placing at the command of the

suit, yet it is admitted that there are

First in Importance of the needs OF
the National Guard, which the bill is
designed to fill, is the lack of equip
ment in arms and stores. National
Guard officers who are conversant with
the condition of the troops in their re-
spective states particularly approve
that section of the bill which provides
the National Guard with the regular
zine rifles and carbines. The officers
say this need was made clear during
the Spanish-Amerioen war.

It is nearly thirty-seven years since
Abraham Lincoln, the matchless Amer
icaH, went out into the night. He saw
the light of victory, though, before he
fell asleep. He saw his mighty men at
arms, bronzed, bearded and resolute,
their great triumph complete, all ready
to march down Pennsylvania avenue
preparatory to disbanding among the
farms and fields and workshops that
they had quilted for the fields of war.
He saw Old Glory advanced to the peak
of every spar in the republic. He saw
the Union restored and the blessings of
human freedom saved to the race.
Therefore, my masters, mayhap it is
well that he rested when was fully
completed the long, weary task of the
salvation of the country.
And here will one of the youngest
of Lincoln's soldiers lay down his pen,
first saying over once more those
noble and immortal lines of Walt
Whitman, the good, gray poet:
20 Captain, My Captainl our fearful
trip is done;
The ship has weathered every rock. the
prize sought is won;
The port is near. the bells I hear, the
people all exulting,
While follow eyes the steady keel. the
vessel grim and daring.
But o hearti heart! hearti
o the bleeding drops of red.
Where on the deck nay captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.
20 Captaini My Captain, rise up and
hear the bells;
Rise up!-for you the flag is f1ung-for
you the bugle trills,
For you bouquets and risboned wreaths
for you the shores e-crowdinS;
their eager faces tubing.
their eager faces turning
Here Captain, dear fathsri
This arm beneath your headi
1t is some dream that on the deck
You've fallen cold and dead.
MY Captain does not answer, his lips
pale and still;
My father does not feel my arm, he has
pulse nor will;
The ship is anchored safe and sound, its
voyage closed and done.
From fearful trip the victor ship comes
in with object won.
Exu1t o shores, and ring o bells!
But 1 with mournful tread.
Walk the deck my Captain les,

Brave Sailors of other Wars.

In sort of despair over the contin-
ued crop of nettles springing from the
Sch1ey case, some one in PhiladeI-
phia paper says 1T will dim the glory
of the greatest victory ever won upon

Tennessee did not fire gun after the

Aneedote of Gen. Nelson.

81 had a scrap once with Gen. Mel
son." said an old soldier recently. In
all my service in West Virginia up to
January, 1862 1 had acted on the the
DRY that a commissioned officer had
privileges in the way of standing in
line of battle early in the morning. l,
in common with the other captains in
the regiment, issued strict orders for
my company 20 turn out in the morn
ing and stand the required time in line,
but remained in bed. 1 continued this
practice after we went to Kentucky and
were assigned to Nelson's division,
early in 1862, and all the other COM
pany commanders did the same.
1.-The scheme worked well for two
mornings, and then Nelson issued an
order that every commissioned officer
from colonel down should appear fully
accoutered with his men in line of bat
tie. We laughed at this and agreed to
stand together in ignoring the order.
But the next morning just after the
bugle at division headquarters sounded
reveille there was a commotion along
the line of officers tents. Nelson was
storming through camp, slapping at
tents with his sword and routing out
colonies, majors, captains and lieuten-
ants.
Half awake, I was wondering what
it was all about, when Nelson reared in
at my own tent: Get out of there.
you son of a gun; get out or 1 will
have you shot; get out, you son of a
gum and then slit was cut in my
tent and Nelson glared in at me swear
ing. l sat up on my cot, and pretend
ing to be only half awake, took up my
heavy boots and hurled them one after
another at the opening through which
the general was peering, shout in the
meantime, Il don't know who you are
and 1 don't care. 1 am no son of a gun
take that back or / won't bulge In
stantly the general replied: You
gotohellsir-I take it back. You are a
great big, fine-looking, lazy officer. dis
obeying my orders and setting a bad
example to your men, You ought to be
ashamed Of yourself"

plague and a torment to me since 1
took charge of this parish?"
81 have tried not to be; if there is
anything 1 have left undone 1 am very
sorry and promise you that 1 shall
make good the omission at the earli-
est opportunity
There is only one omission that 1
am aware of-you have not yet sue
ceeded in making me fall in love with
you"
Il have not gone about it the right
way, 1 suppose" Mable returned COM
posedly But it is not worth while
for US to spend the whole evening
quarreling," she added pleasantly.
Father and mother are out at neigh
boris so 1 hope you will keep my tea
from being solitary
Carson was puzzled by the sudden
change, but before the evening was
over he realized what a bright brainy
woman this stray sheep was. Nab
seemed determined to make herself
agreeable. She succeeded so well that
before he took her hand in parting,
Vaughn was quite ready to forgive and
forget.
And this was only the beginning.
Nearly every day they met somewhere
for moment at least and the meeting
was always pleasant. Carson heard
that she had explained this sudden
change of front by announcing that
she and the preacher had made it up.
Long enough before the lenten sea-
son had passed it had become natural
for him to regard her as his sworn
second in all church work, and when
they met on Saturday to decorate
for Easter, Mable took up her role as
a matter of course and zealously sec
onded his every suggestion.
1t was natural, then, that when they
at last stood alone together before the
lily banked altar he should have felt
called upon to express his gratitude
and it was also natural that as the
evening was growing late and the soft
April twilight vas filling the church
with all sorts of shadows, his words
should have been warmer than graft
tude strictly demanded.
IF you only knew he concluded
huskfly, how very. very dear you have
grown to me-
Mable spoke quickly as though afraid
OF herself.
Does this mean that I have made
good the only omission you could sug-
gest that EVENING""
Carson started into sternness.
What evening? All, what fool /
have BEEN"
YES Mable agreed, cit is a rash
thing to defy a woman as you defied
me-"
Carson made no reply. He was
staring at the lilies with a touch of
savageness. 1t was easy enough now
to understand. He stopped and took
from the altar steps a long stemmed
lily and offered it to her.
Crush it under foot if you see fiji"
he said quietly.
Mable took the pure fragile emblem
of Easter gladness and looked for a
long uncertain moment. Then sud
denly with a shy laugh she thrust the
long stem into her belt and the lily
laid its heavy head upon her breast
