From the top OF Lookout Mountain
In Tennessee you can see into several
states. 1t was here that the famous
battle above the clouds" was fought.
A portion OF the crest Is reserved by
the government for a park. and as the
climate is ideal a great many North
erners live here during a portion Of the
year.
II was Gen. Hooker who charged the
Notifications OF Lookout Mountain.
With desperate determination the
Union forces carried the heights, driv-
ing the enemy before them. The next
morning Hooker advanced on the
south while Sherman was engaged on
the northern flank. Grant, from his
position. saw the effect OF Sherman's
assaults. The Confederate line In front
of him was being weakened. and with
a bold movement launched Thomas
corps on It's center. The orders were
to take the rife pits at the foot OF the
hill, then halt and reform; but In the
excitement OF success officers and men
pushed forward ana swept up the as
cent. Grant caught the inspiration.
and the entire forces were ordered In
n grand charge. Up they went, over
rocks and chasns, all lines broken In
the eagerness to reach the summit.
Without firing a shot. and needless OF
the tempest hurled upon them, they
gained the crest, captured the guns and
turned them on the retreating foo.

tho Fair Ser.
Women were, as usual. ~conspicu-
ously generous with gifts and requests
during 1901-the first year OF the new
century. The record for charitable,
educational and like purposes reaches
approximately the sum of SIS. O00. 900,
or about 81, SOC. 900 every month. OF
the SIS, 900, 900 given to colleges alone
during the first six months OF the
year women contributed SO, 900, 900. 1t
has been noted that, while men give
literally to education, women
contributed chiefly to charity and re-
ligion. Her beautiful home In Virginia,
1000 acres OF land and an endowment
or $7OO,O00 is a recent gift, by will,
OF Mrs. Indiana Williams for a girls
school. Mrs. Mccormick, Of Chicago,
continues her liberal gifts to educa-
tiou, and Miss Helen Gould contrib
utej to the same cause most gener-
ously. Vassar College has been pre-
sented with scholarships as well as
the New York University, the latter
receiving a fund for perpetual endow-

extent of 81, 000. 900 by women's gifts.
In the realm OF charity, gifts and be-

splendid sum OF $40, 900 900. Rarely,

Capt. Stivers had not reported In COM
pliance with a certain order and was
entered as absent without leave. When
this report reached the adjutant-gen-
erals office. Washington. the authori-
ties did not stop to investigate. The
order sending him to the Army OF the
Potomac was overlooked: only that
which directed him to the frontier was
found. A few days after the battle Of
Fredericksburg there was sent to the
headquarters of the Seventh Regiment
a notification that Capt. Stivers had
been dropped from the rolls Of the
army because of absence without leave.
A message was Immediately returned
saying that Capt. Stivers had not been
absent without leave; that he had re-
turned to his regiment by virtue OF a
proper order. and during the battle OF
Fredericksburg had, as senior officer
present, commanded in the fight and
was at that time In hospital from a
wound received while leading in n
charge. or course the matter was
righted at once by restoring the cap
tain to his position, but 1t was not
done In the proper way, as will be seen
later on. Only an act OF Congress
could restore him. Secretary Stanton
did not wait for that. The captains
health failed him rapidly after the bat
tie and he was sent home, as everyone
supposed, to die, and was soon after
retired. Within a year or two he so

mously, to the same position, retiring
from that service only recently. About
fifteen years ago the authorities at
Washington discovered that Capt.
Stivers had not been properly restored
to the army after he was wrongfully
dropped, and IL was then that the most
cruel blow fell upon him. He was
again dropped from the army, and 1t
took four long years of hard work be-
fore Congress restored him, forgetting
to make provision for his salary during
the four years he was wrongfully out.

Those who knew Capt. Carried r.
Paul when he was commanding a brig

a bold patriot in the darkest hour of
the American republic. The Confeder-
ates OF Texas demanded the surrender
OF the post at which he was stationed
but paroled all Of the officers and men
who made their way north as best they
could. Capt. Paul was at once made a
colonel and raised regiment after regi-
ment and organized brigade after bril-
gade until along In 1862, when he was
given a brigade In Gen. James Wads-
worth's division OF the First ARMY
Corps, Army OF the Potomac. His first
great battle as commander OF a brigade
was Charlottesville, and the next.
Gettysburg, where his work was OF
such a character as to attract the at
tention OF his division, corps and army
commander. IL was In this battle that
he received n wound in the head which
caused total blindness. In due time he

A shadow passed me by.

The silver chimes began to ring,

A dashing soldier, young and fair.
Came riding DER the snow.

And on his sword he bore a rose
A red, red rose-in bloom.

and there was only the pretty object
OF the young minister's alteration to
care for her mother and brother and
to summon the doctor, somehow.
"Ill get the DOCTOR" said young
Archer, naturally.
The grateful look which Nell gave
made his heart beat ~joyously, but It
didn't strengthen the tired horse,
which was presently speeding back to-
ward Bracken, as II did the tired driv-
err. Half way to the village the young
minister was compelled to ask shelter
for his horse and go on without him.
He covered most of the intervening
four miles on the run, aud arrived at
Bracken all but exhausted. Yet back
he would go with the doctor. And. OF

There was a lighting chance for

wanted his father and brothers. The
doctor would telegraph the elder Hark-
ness from the next village. but the Nc
Inness camp lay sixty miles out of the
course he must follow.

see. right in the opposite direction" he
told Mrs. Hardness. II came here nrst
because she's probably got some other

her without delay"

to the kings wishes with success without
having secured the concurrence and sup
port Of Mr.. Chamberlain, Mr. Balfour drove
to the colonial secretary's house and saw

to state that he was met in the most cor

The change in the premiership will Ger
tainly involve ultimately other ministerial

cept that Of keeper of the privy SEAL the

The Standard, in an editorial article on
the subject, says 1t thinks Lord Salisbury
will be deemed no unworthy successor to
line OF Industrious premiers. and that his
loss will be felt abroad as much as at home.
for his prestige and unique authority have
long been regarded as a stable force In
international politics. Then referring to the
absence of intrigue or friction in the
change, the STANDARD says:
''Mr Chamberlain has generously and ma
triotfca1ly effaced his own aspira lions when
he might almost have been excused for de-
Ginning to rest satisfied with any place lower
than the highest. and has thus shown not
for the first time. that he can prefer ma
