 At the recent funeral of Gen. Rose crans, at Arlington National ceme- tery, Speaker Henderson said: 'When the armies of Price and Van Dorn were pressing our lines and there were symptoms of falling back, Rose crans suddenly dashed between the federal and confederate lines like the very spirit of war. He passed but a few steps from where l was. l can IUrown o1f. His frrnfy-set fsrr sccrccf as though he was made for god of battle. Swinging his sword he called out to us: Stand firm, my men, for your flag and country
 How he escaped, God only knows. The very air was full of lead, and death was holding high carnival along his pathway; yet fearlessly he rode into the very teeth of death, successfully rallying his men for the mighty struggle before them."
 Capt. Scott Belden, who narrated the story of the surprise party at headquarters, has long been a tenn perance man, but in army days, and for some years subsequently,, the old soldiers all took naturally to com missary whisky, as indicated in the story told. One of Belden's friends narrates the following about him:
 There was reunion of the vet erans of the Second Iowa cavalry, at Anamosa, Ia., and when Belden ar rived he found the boys playing cards and drinking ginger pop, sarsaparilla and other very unsolderlike bever- ages. Belden inquired for the whis- ky, and was informed that in that prohibition town there was no whis- ky, except at drug store where it might be procured in small quantities on physicians prescription. Belden simply remarked: ''I'm going out on a foraging expedition" and inside of an hour he reappeared with big tin pail full of whisky
 He first went to the drug store, rushed at the German-American pro- prietor, calling: Give me pound of fiax-seed, pint of linseed oil, and a pint of turpentine, as quick as pos sible, ! must save the life of that horse, so please hurry"
 The goods were hastily prepared. | and throwing a ten-dollar bill on the counter, Belden rushed out saying: | ''Never mind the change justA now Time IS everything with me"
 Then he went and bought ne tin | pail, and covered the bottom th | pure spring water. Fastening i. so the drug store, he shouted: Pour a gallon of whisky onto this turpen- tine, quick, and I'll save that horse yet" Then he added: Don't stop to measure it, just fill up the bucket and hurry up."
 The deed was done. The pure wa ter looked like turpentine and the druggist was unsuspecting. So Bel den carried the whisky to the boys, and renewed his wartime popularity with them. But he wouldn't get whis- ky for anybody nowadays.

PRINCE AS A COMPRESSOR.
The King of SnxOny's Son Is the Only Royal Priest in All
 Europe,

Prince Max, of SaXony's of1iciation as confessor to the murderer Chat ton, who was guillotined at Fribourg recently, recalls the fact that King Georges youngest son is the only royal priest in Europe His royal highness wears religious garb and leads a life of seclusion and severe self-denial, says a DresdeIf report.
 The prince, who is 32, has been spiritually inclined ever since he was a boy. When just out of his teens he came to London to live and for several years worked among the poorest folk in the slums of the east end. With the experience gained, he went back to Dresden, and, in 1896, ''took orders" After that he studied hard, got to be doctor of law and of theology, and, not long ago, was appointed professor of canonic law and liturgy at the Fri bourg university
 That he is as earnest a man of God as if he were q peasants instead of a kings son, Prince Max proved in the recent Chatton affair The murderer though only %, was a confirmed scoundrel, who had completed long record of crime by killing with an ax his pretty cousin, girl of IT, As.soon as Prince Max heard that Chatton was to die he went to him. He remained in the murderer's cell all night, received his confession and walked with him to the guillotine.

M
 NY Gen. Rosecrans, the hero of the Iuka."
 The veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic were gathered in the national capital; reassembled for the last time on earth, probably, In the capital city of the great re- public which they saved from de- strucIion. God bless them! Every one of them is a hero brave; every one of them a timber strong that made the bulwark of liberty and. union perpetual.
 "We returned to the paths of peace" says Gen. Harrison Allen, of North Dakota, but every one of us has lived in the memories of those four years in the tented field, and of ten ever until this day our dreams are of the field, the march, the skirmish, the battle, hospital and death's trenches. Yes, we returned to the ways of peace, but those years of campaigning made us soldiers for the rest of our days. You young folks could not see it in our faces nor in our eyes, but down in our hearts we often longed for the old days when we might meet the boys with whom we stood shoulder to shoulder
 As they came from north, south, east and west, in every group there was songster or a trio or quartette, singing: We are coming, Father Abraham, three hundred thousand strong" That was a popular song 40 years ago, in all of the homes of the land, as well as in the armies. It referred to the calls made by Pres ident Lincoln for 100000 more sol diers, from time to time. And as the old boys were gathered here, they burnished their memories by singing the old song, and many others of by gone days.
 And the stories of experience which they told ought to be all printed in thousands of volumes, for the enter tainmeni of all future generations, and for the inspiration of patriotism in the hearts of the young men of generations yet unborn. Here is one of the lest of them all, and il is told every soldier 1ovea and whom every brave soldier knows went to his grave with heart sore, because his grand services were requited with in- dignity by few petty politicians and self-seeking coffee coolers who called themselves soldiers.
 T was fortunate enough to be at staff headquarters when the dispatch came making Rosecrans major gen. eral," says Capt. w. Scott Belden, of Iowa, who served with gallantry and distinction throughout the war in the old Second Iowa cavalry. The great statesman, Hepburn, who has been foremost in securing an isthmian canal was colonel of that regiment.
 "The dispatch was taken by Quar- termaster Tighe," continued Capt. Belden, land he called several off

PASSING OF THE DESERT.
Eandy Western Wastes Are Being Converted Into Fertile Soil by
 the Government.

Uncle Sam is wiping the desert from his map, drawing geography lessona,T remarked d returned New Yorker at an uptown hotel the other evening, according to the Herald, ''and Il new irrigation law will be most effective wet slate rag to erase the last remnants of what was once known as the Great American des- ert.
 There were originally 13 states and three territories wholly or part ly within the limits of the desert. When l went west in the early seven ties l thought as l looked out from the flaps of the big prairie schooner that the Lord never meant men to encroach on those forsal1en miles of alkali and cactus, and my wife sad that the Bible verse about Thus far shalt thou go and no further meant the desert the same as the sea.
 But this time l travelled over the same region and saw that miracle had happened. The wizard was lrrl- gation Western Kansas blossoms like the rose, and it isn't so very long
  And Ill Arizona will be seen hke transformation in the next few years now that the government is going to take hand in the work of water ing the thirsty land.
 The new law creates out of the sale of public lands in the ard regions a reclamation fund, which will provide means for storing and distributing water for irrigation pur- poses. One big cattleman down there told me that enough land to equal the combined areas of Iowa and llll- nois would be made over for the tickling of the blow. And since one man may get hold of only limited number of acres the best benefits of the law come, not to the big grazing companies, but to the actual set tier there
 ''So 1t has we'll been called home making law Few real settlers have been .aking up public land lately, be- cause of the arid character of the only available acres.
