Form, which catches the drip from
spout of pump, a small trough is To-
Gated. This trough is made from a
piece of squared timber chiseled out
hollow and is about 22xSXS inches out
side and 1SX5hx51a inches inside
measurement. An iron pipe, one inch
in diameter, runs from the small
trough to the large one in cellar, being
placed under porch and extended
through the wall, as is shown in cut.
The large trough is made from log,
squared and followed out similarly as
is the small one. 1t is ten feet long
and 15xS1a inches at the ends out
side; inside is feet long, 10 inches
wide and 6 inches deep. This space
is sufficient to hold about ten crooks
of four gallons size; other sizes in
proportion. At one end near bottom is
a one-inch hole stopped with wooden
plug to empty the trough when occa-
sion demands. At a point about oAe
and one-half inches from top edge of
trough, another hole kept open serves
to carry off the overflow water. These
holes empty into a stone ditch or drain
that runs from cellar and carries away
the water.
The plan as followed in this case
may be changed to suit the location of
well, etc, or to suit the wishes of the
farmer. 1t may be adopted at least
in part by many who have a well in
proximity to the cellar. The large
and small troughs may be made of
plank and overflow water from the
large one may be conducted away with
pipe. 1t will no doubt be best to
use two-inch pipe between pump and
cellar, since the water will run away
from the small trough quicker when
filling the cellar trough by pumping
in new supply of water. However,
the drainage from pump where water
is frequently pumped for household
use, will keep the trough supplied with
cool water since what remains in the
iron pump stock is generally pumped
out before catching any of the water.
The plan as it is illustrated and de-
scribed has been in use for some time
and is quite satisfacto<y-J. G. Ais

Lieut.. Davidson had never broken
his technical arrest and he had never
done any gambling. He Gid take out
of his valIse a $50 bill which belonged
to a soldier of his company; a part
of sum of money the lieutenant
was safe-leeping for him; and the
soldier gambled it away. On this
slender thread his enemies went to
weaving conspiracy against him,
and he was dishonorably discharged
from the army. During the past 81
years he has been seeking justice be-
fore congress. He did not know Sen
ator HOar, ard had no friend in con-
gress to take personal interest in
him. He has now, and he will have
tho satisfaction of having his record
cleared of those unfair charges.
Another old soldier was met by the
narrator, and he, too, was in good
spirits, for the congress has passed
the bill placing him on the retired
list as a captain. Maj. James w.
Long is well known in the northwest,
particularly in Michigan, where he
served for many years. Before the
committee on military affairs Maj.
Long appeared and told his story as
follows:

who inspected his company preferred
charges against him as to the condi-
ton of his company and wagons. OF
these charges he was acquitted. But
that did not end the matter. 1t is
well known to those familiar with
the old army that when conspirato rs
begin to seek court-martials they
usually succeed in some manner.
Charges were later preferred against
Davidson for breach of arrest and
gaming in the presence of enlisted
men" He had not been placed in
close arrest during the trial before the
court which acquitted him, but was
simply ordered to remain with his
company under arrest. He did not
leave the ranch of FL Louz nor did
he leave his company. The assertion
as to gaming was that he had thrown
a 500 bill on table that a Mexican
had in front of one of the huts at
that ranch, where some of the soldiers
played monte. The judge advocate
general, in May, 1873, reported:
1.-THE new evidence submitted may be
deemed to cast a doubt upon the guilt of
the accused. In view of this doubt this
the sentence of the accused was probably
too severe. He has suffered under this
sentence two and half years. and his

Especial Washington letter.

IlC ENAIoR HOAX Is not only
y statesman, but a loveable
man of the plain people"
said a former army officer to-day.
The senator is now almost 76 years
of age, and of course is not as
strong physically as he once was, al
though mentally is he a tower of
strength.
Il called on him at the senate one
morning recently, to tell him that
my bill for restoration in the army
was hung up in the house of repre-
sentatives. He told me that after
lunch he would personally look into
the case. Although he had many
matters of greater Importance on his
mind, when the time came the old
gentleman took me by the arm and
walked that long distance from the
senate to the house. That body was
in session, and l remained out in the
corridor while he went inside. He
saw members of the committee on
military affairs, and then left the
case in charge of a representative
from Massachusetts, who is to look
after it.
NOW, if had been a politician, I
might not have been surprised at a
senator doing so much for me. But
l am not a politician, and l have not
voted in Massachusetts for many
years. The senator knew me as a
citizen of Massachusetts who had
served in the civil war and after
wards in the regular army. He
knew that l had been uniustly
turned out of the army, and he de-
termined to help me get justice. He
had the bill passed by the senate
two months ago, and now it must be
passed by the house. l am sure that
it will be all right, because the SEN
ator has taken a personal interest
in it. My Uncle Tom and he were
classmates at Harvard; hence he
knows the family, and has turned
aside from his duties of statesman
ship long enough to give me a help
ing hand. Out of many years ex-
perience l can say that there are
few senators who would do so much
for one who can do nothing in re-
turn, except express heartfelt
thanks"
Lieut.. Francis S. Davidson, who thus
tells of the kindness of the venerab BILE
statesman from Massachusetts,. was
a cadet at West Point from July l..
1862, to January 81, 1865, when he was
commissioned a second lieutenant in
the Fifth Massachusetts. cavalry, and
served with that regiment until De-
tober 81, 1865, when he was honora-
bly, mustered out with the regiment
On March Z, 1867, he was commissioned
second lieutenant of the Ninth United
States cavalry and promoted to first
lieutenant, July 81, 1867. He served
with his regiment on the Texas from
tier against hostile Indians until july.
1875, when he was ordered with his
company on scout and to make a
temporary camp at water hole called
sci Louz ranch"
Lieut.. Davidson is not the first good
soldier who has suffered from envies
and jealousies; and it was in 1875 that
his prosecutions began. The writer
had personally known him for almost
30 years, and hence is familiar with
his story. When he left Fort Brown,
Tex, to go on that scout, the officer
