BEAR TAKES REVENGE.


Keeper Punished Benst Some Time
Ago and Is Taken to Hospital as n
Result.
William f. Winchermann, an animal
trainer, had fight the other day
with Tony, the largest and most in
telligent of the Winchermann troup
of performing bears, at New York. AS
IL result, Winchermann is in a serious
condition at the New York hospital.
He may get well, but the surgeons
were making no guarantees to that
effect.
The trainer had been away eight
weeks and had ordered the bear out
of his cage to take a bath. The bear
obeyed, but after the bath, when the
trainers back was turned for n mo-
ment, the bear attacked him, knocked
him down, tearing the calf of his leg,
chewed both arms badly, and was
biting into one leg when felled by n
blow from cub welded by an as
sistant who came in response to the
trainers cries. The trainer punished
the bear severely some time ago, and
it is believed the animal treasured up
the grudge and got his revenge at the
first opportunity.

A WARTIME DOG.
Canine Hero of the "BulI-Dog ReEi-
ment" and Some of His Distin-
gushing Deeds.

The story l am about to relate is a
true one to which many now living
could testify, says writer in the Hart
ford Comm Courant. Many did say?
The number diminishes every year, and
but few of us remain of those who
obeyed the call of their country in her
hour of need. Yet there are here and
there some in company f, Fifth G. ",
commanded by Capt. e. e. Marvin, now
clerk of the United States courtat Hart
ford, who, if they read this story, will
be carried back in memory to those
scenes during the civil war. All stories
have their hero and the hero of mine
is Black Dog Jack. Not that we were
lacking in heroes, for no regiment had
fewer officers or more heroic men, nor
could Jack boast of any beauty, like
most of the heroes of modern fiction.
He was of ordinary size for the species
to which he belonged, simply black
and tan terrier, stray, probably from
the rebs, that one of the boys found
near Strausburg, Va, and brought into
camp. AS he did not have much to
recommend him on first appearance the
comrades did not seem to regard him
as an acquisition to the company, but
rather spurned his friendly advances
until, in a fierce contest with bull ter
rier much larger than himself belong
ing to another company, Jack came off
victor and proved that he was made of
fighting stuff and had fairly earned
the right to be numbered with that
regiment which, during the war'and in
the records of the war, was known as
the Bull Dog regiment. A more for
midable foe in the shape of a very large
dog named "Tige," belonging to the
wagon train, one time took the liberty,
which was much resented by Jack, of
taking him up and shaking himA and
after that at the mere mention of the
name "Tige" Jack would bristle and
bark with rage and resentment. These
soldierly qualities caused Jack to rise
in the estimation of the boys. He
shared their blankets at night and the
very best of their rations, and it was a
saying among them that it was hard
| times indeed when Jack would eat
hardtack, and he well repaid them by
his constancy and devotion to the boys

GETTYSBURG.

A peaceful plain all glrded round
With cottages wherein is found
The thrifty tillers of the ground,
A quiet country place.
Twas here, in years long past and dead,
While hill and plain with blood ran red,
Men fought by fearless leaders led,
The battle of the race
On yonder hill off toward the west
Tall oak trees stood in grandeur dressed,
And on this eastern ridge at rest
The village dead reposed.
Southeast of here we view Culp's Hill
To all the veterans living still
The very name revves thrill
Brings back the scenes long closed.
The memory rushes back again
To where the shot and shell did rain,
Where comrades were by thousands slain
While fury led the way.
When a hundred thousand men stood fast
In n heat intense as furnace blast,
With courage undaunted to the last,
All eager for the fray.
A thrilling sight so grand, sublime
Unmatched in any age or cline,
1t stands the conflict of all time,
'Tis valor's mountain peak.
A rumblng of the earth, and then
The catter of hoofs and tramp of men;
Like hunters on a chase, as when
In haste the game they seek.
AS with the lightnng's sudden flash
There comes silence, then a crash;
They thundered forward with a DASH
Like leaves before the wind.
Then forming lines on either side,
While back and forth their leaders rice,
To stand with confidence and pride,
Nor cast look behind.
An ominous silence, dark and dread,
\ signal from someone who led
Then thousands groaning, dying, dead;
An awful, ghastly sight.
To try to paint the scene is vain
The dead in heaps like gathered grain,
And carnage in her bloody reign;
In pity fell the night.
AS morning dawned, again arose
| The cannon's roar the shouts of foes,
And fiercer still the conflict grows;
Till darkness hides the day.
Another day of strife awoke,
But e'er its close the battles smoke
Had cleared for Lees brave hearth
broke,
He sadly rode away.
Now rears, the shafts of granite high
Ger graves where unknown thousands lie
All time shall sing their eulogy;
Fearless, their lives they gave.
Ne'er died more gallant men than these,
Their requiem sings on every breeze,
Men of Meade's army and of Lees,
Each one a soldier brave.

SOLDIER TAKEN FOR GIRL.
He Was Young and Slender and the
Mistake Was Quite
Natural.

George w. Logan, OF Salem. Va.
who came to the U..C. V. reunion as
delegate from Hop Dyole camp, tells
an interesting story illustrative o:
the belief of union soldiers that man :
women disguised themselves as men
and fought in the confederate army,
says the New Orleans Times-D Demo-
crat.
Mr.. Logan was only II years old
when he was taken prisoner in an
attack on Fort Cannon. He was very
slender, and very girlish in his az
pearance, being fair, with high color
and wearing his long, lightbrown
hair brushed straight back and un-
parted.
Taken to Point Lookout and later
to City Point, he attracted the atten-
tion of an officer of the escort. The
federal officer treated the youthful
prisoner with as much courtesy as
circumstances permitted frequently
conversing with him.
One day the officer asked to be told
the truth regarding the belief among
federal soldiers that many women
were serving in the confederate
army. Mr.. Logan said it was not
true. but he had heard, in common
with others, that few women had
so served.
The federal officer was thoughtful
for while after the conversation re-
ferred to, and then urged the pris-
oner to forswear the confederacy and
go to the officers Pennsylvania home,
Il can arrange it without trouble
said the officer, land my people will
receive you and treat you like one
of the family" \ dozen times OF
more the federal officer urged the
point.
81 subsequently learned said Mr.
Logan. that he believed ! was a
girl, and that it was for that reason
that he wanted me to go to Penn
sylvania. He never intimated such a
reason to me, but my information
came in "A way that seemed to be re-
liable, and then it was that | under
stood why, before our conversation
about women, he had offered to pro-
cure me a bathing suit if | wished to
go swimming at any time"

of company F, to whom he clung dur
ing his entire stay with the regiment.
AS he was member in good and regu-
lar standing" when the regiment was
to be on inspection one of the boys fast
ened a large hardtack on his back for a
knapsack. Jack seemed to understand
what was expected of soldier and sat
at the head of the line with as much
gravity and decorum as the best of
them. When the call for action came, 1t
found Jack ready; and on the battlefield
at Winchester he fought the enemy
bravely, as the following poem which
appeared in print at that time and was
given to me by one of our gallant Off
GERS describes in rhyme:
DOG Jack had stood his ground among the
Had bumped his back, and growled and
barked his best,
Had every moment mad and madder
Thrice volunteered short advance alone.
But VIXEN the gray backs turned and ran,
lie took his chance for individual lame,
And tried his teeth on dlsloyal heels,
Soon returned and brought for trophy from
the field
A bit of shoddy gray, to fringe his mouth"
And this was no overdrawn account;
several times did he advance upon the
enemy, whirling around as the shot fell
thick about him, diving and plunging
his head into the ground where shell
had struck. From this time Jack was
promoted from the ranks of common
soldier The boys were too choice of
him to permit the risk in battle. In
point of fact, they did not regard him
as any common dog, and, had he been
of less heroic stuff, he would have
stood greatly in danger of being a
spoiled dog. He was petted by every
almost perpetual motion, so great had
the comradeship grown since he came,
forlorn little doggie, to camp. In the
memorial which was printed and sent
home with the soldiers names belong
ing to company F, giving short de-
scription of each, Jacks name appeared
and is thus described, viz: BLACK Dog
Jack, enrolled at Winchester, March IA,
1862. Been in all the battles and skir-
mishes of the company and shows de-
cided antipathy for graXbacks. Has
been q faithful companion" At the ex-
piration of the three years for which
the regiment enlisted, it was thought
Jack had seen enough of the hardsips
of war, and he came home to Rockville
with some of the company that did not
re-enlist, which ends the account of
Jack as far as my knowledge of him eX-
tends. l remained with those that were
left until the close of the war 1t does
not seem irreverent TO think those
qualities of faithfulness and devotion
may live hereafter. If they do, am
sure Jack must have gone where good
dogs go long before this.

The French have found a reason for
the popularity of the cakewalk in Paris.
The thing is French! One of the ne
groes at the Nouveau Cirque, inter-
viewed by Paris paper, says that the
origin of the dance was French. Ac-
cording to this latest account, some of
the French refugees from the court of
Marie Antoinette introduced the minuet
into New Orleans about the time of
the revolution, and it was the native imi-
tation of the most fashionable dance in
Europe, that was afterwards developed
into the cakewalk.
