Stirring Description OF Cavalry

| Stirling Description OF q Cavalry
Charge Mt Gettysburg.
A cavalry charge met By q counter
charge Of cavalry Is still perhaps the
most terrible spectacle witnessed IN
war. If the reader has never seen such
charge he can form little conception
Of its awe inspiring fury. Imagine
yourself looking down from Gettys-
burg's heights upon the open, wide
spreading plain below where 5000
horses are marshaled in battle line.
Standing beside them are 5000 riders
armed, booted and spurred and ready
to mount. The bugles sound the
Mount and instantly 5000 plumes
rise above the horses! as the riders
spring into their saddles. In front Of
the respective squadrons the daring
leaders take their places The futter-

companies. On the opposite slope Of
the same plain are 5000 hostile horse
men clad in different uniforms ready to
meet these in countercharge. Under
those 10000 horses are their hoofs, iron
shod and pitiless, beneath whose fur5-
GUS tread the plain Is soon to CULVER.
Again on each slope Of the open field
the bugles sound. Ten thousand sabers
leap from scabcards and glisten in the
sun. The trained horses chafe their re-
straintng bits, and as the bugle notes
sound the charge their nostrils dllate
and their tanks swell in sympathetic
impulse with the dash!ng riders. For
ward!" shouts the commander. Down
the lines and through the columns In
quick succession ring the echoing COM
mands, FORWARD, forward!r' As this
order thrills through eager ears sabers

A Spectacle That Is Magnificent IN
Its Impressiveness-
It wes q trifa past the afterglow Of
sunset, and the sea was deep rich
purple, with long flowing swe,ls. The
sky, @ fine light turquoise blue at ho-
rfzon, gradually deepened into q Hch
cobalt, In which few stars twtnkled
A majority Of the men were absorbed
In various occupations below when a
COLL Of enthusiasm brought all up on
deck. At point low on the southwest
horizon q faint film had arisen, which
quickly, silently assumed the form Of
curtain, waving and mounting upward
In two stately columns past group OF
finely shaped cirrostratus. In few
seconds it was across the zenith, dis
playing beautiful pale yellows, greens
md delicate pink and blue lights, with
edg1ngs at intervals Of faint purple and
red The columns descended rapidly tn
ever varying spirals Of perspective IN
til the avant garde was lost behind the
far northwest horizon
We were about off the Danish port OF
Godthaab, Greenland, sufficiently
southern latitude at this season for the
alienation Of day and night and as the
heavens darkened the stars shone with
increasing brightness through this
great shimmering veil Of light
The heavens and the sea grew darker
and darker, and the aurora brighter
and brighter in lightning changes Of
form and color, with the green and yel-
low and blue rays predouinadng and
the delicate sheen from the aurora's
light writhing in fiery serpent forms
over the face Of the moving waters.
What impress1veness, what magnif-
cence! 1t held the soul as in spell.
There was not much talking. Splendid
as it was, I afterward witnessed auro-
ras which produced deeper impress
sion, due doubtless to the presence Of
the long night Of the far north.-Cen-

CAPTIVATING SIMPLICITY.

The Way John Burroughs SccdfSG
Treasury Clerkship.
Early in the sixties OF the last cen

been appointed comptroller Of the cur

under the provisions Of the national
bank act, there walked into his once,
| unannounced. one day i stranger
dressed in store clothes" and wearing
long hair.
"AIy name is Burroughs-John Bur
rougls," said the visitor. Il should ike
to have a position in your department. !"
"What do you know about banking?'
asked the comptroller, thinking that
perhaps in the unique stranger might
be discovered some genius Of an ac-
tuar!: or accountant.
"Unhappily nothing" replied the ap-
plicant.
"Who sent you here?''
"No one
"N'ell, who's your congressman? To
whom can you refer me:'
"l know no congressman
"And you expected to get a govern
ment position without qualification for
the position and without Endorsement
or backing Of any character"
Il think I could learn Office work
here, and the salary would be great
help to me in my literary career"
"Oh. you are writer, are you?
What's your Ise: Poetry, perhaps"
II try to write poetry" confessed the
visitor.
"Got any of 1t with your asked the
comptroller, now considerably amused.

The poet-naturalist produced a song
redoient Of carly spring. 1t treated OF
the chewink. the oven bird and the
Carolina wren, with dainty reference
to forest violets and hcpatica.
"This is great" commented the comp
troller: its right out Of the woods"
(Which is more than can be said OF
the author" observed Mr.. Burroughs,
thinking Of tic world Of finance which
he was seeking to invade.
Tie comptroller laughed. And IS
this all you have in the way of Gre
dentials?'

was the bland and sincere reply.
In much merriment the comptroller
summoned an assistant Here's the

business have ever encountered In

there applies for government position
and the only hackers that he can name
are the muses.. Yet this department is

Public Lands for the Virginia
Military Institute

Mr.. H. ID, Flood, the representa-
tive in Congress from this district,
has introduced bill to aid and
encourage military training and
instruction in Virginia by the
donation Ct public lands. The
bill is intended to place the Vir-
GINA Military Institute on the
firm basis, and to make it the real
"West Point of the SOUTH as it
has been sometimes called.
1t provides that 100000 acres
of public lands Of the United
States be applied, as far as may
be necessary, for the benefit of the
Virginia Military institute, to the
repair, building and restoration of
the buildings of the institution,
and the restoration of the library
and scientific apparatus destroyed
by fire by Federal troops during
the Civil War, such application to
Re made as the Legislature Of Vlr-
gInia may direct, or may empower
the board of visitors of the Insti-
tute to direct.
The State If Virginia is to pay
the expenses Of agents and com
missioners appointed by the Gov
ernor to select such lands. to be
reimbursed out of the sales of the
lands.
When the selection of the land is
made and approved by the Secre-
tary of the Interior, the title of
the same shall be vested in the
State of Virginia, to be used for
the purposes mentioned first, and
the residue is to be employed for
the endowment of the Institute,
and for no other purpose what
ever. The State Of Virginia is
to sell the lands and
to receive into her treasury the
proceeds Of the sale, but no ex-
penses attendant upon the sale
are to fall on the Federal govern
ment. The Secretary of the In
terror is empowered to make all
needful regulations to carry this
bill into effect, and is 80 decide
all questions growing out of it.
Mr.. Flood has strong hope that
the bill will get through the fifty
eighth Congress, though he realizes
that it will be difficult to get any
such legislation through in view
of the short session program the
Republicans propose to carry
out.
