twenty one hours in saddle every day, When horses gave out they seized fresh ones, sometimes three or four daily for single trooper.
 Morgan entered Ohio just north of Cincinnati and rode through the sub- urbs of that city in the night. July IS he reached the eastern border of the state at Buf1ngton's Bar. At that point the expedition changed from a raid into running fight for life. Nor gan might have escaped into West Vir- ginia by abandoning his artillery and wounded, but he preferred to save all or lose all. Early on the 18th the ad- vance of General Judah's pursuing col umn discovered the raiders camp. After a skirmish in which Morgan's troopers won everything the artillery began a duel at long range. A second Federal column under General Shackle- ford moved up on another road from

Duke he crossed the Cumberland riv- CT into Kentucky the 2d of July, the second day of the battle of Gettysburg. His force comprised 2,400 troopers, with six pieces of horse artillery. The crossing was made under the eyes of General Judah's Federal cavalry. Ju- dah didn't think the raiders would breast the flooded waters, but Mor- gan's way was to do just what the foe least expected. When Judah woke up and tried to interfere with the crossing the raiders ambushed his head of col umn and chased the whole cavalcade back to camp.
 Morgan's first and. only repulse was at the bridge over Green river. Colo neI Moore held the post with the Twen- ty-fifth Michigan and when summoned to yield answered.: Its a bad day to surrender. I'd rather not" The day was the Fourth of July. The raiders charged galIantly, but after losing fifty men Morgan gave it up.
 The first halt in Indiana was at Vi- enna. The raiders seized the telegraph, and Morgan's clever operator Ells- worth took from the wires some Fed eral dispatches giving orders how to pursue the invaders. Everything indi- cated that the pursuers were behind time. Morgan was moving at the pace nf ? cyclone, The raiders. averaged

Motor Tntoxtcntfon.

The opinion of Dr. Forbes Winslow, the eminent specialist on brain disor- ders, that the racing motor has out distanced the powers of the man who drives it, is borne out by the fact that new disease called motor in- toxication" has been discovered by the savants of Paris. It is the tenn porary mental disorder of speeding automobilists. M. Hachet SoupIet, at the last meeting of the Societe d'Hypnologie ct de Psychologist, spoke of the intoxicating effect of rapid motor locomotion. The mental and moral states of the driver become abnormal. He grows vindictive, fu- riously aggressive, and let's himself be carried away by the angry impulse of the moment. The high rate of speed works him up into the very same state of mind which makes tho habitual drinker of alcohol regard less of consequepces.-St. James Gazette.

the one occupied by Judah, and at the same time some Federal gunboats in the river opened fire in Morgan's rear.
 The concentrated fire from three di- rections stampeded Morgans wagons, and they blocked the only road of es- cape. When the confusion was at its height in Morgan's lines the Seventh and Eighth Michigan cavalry and part of the Fifth Indiana charged the raid CTS. Morgan's guns were captured and his whole command thrown into panic. Colonel Duke and Colonel Smith sur rendered to Colonel Garrard of the Sev- enth Ohio. Morgan himself rode out of the net at Bufnngton's Bar with 1900 of his men. Galloping rapidly almost abreast of the column of his pursuers, he gained the river again twenty miles above the battle ground and attempted to cross. A few es- caped by swimming, but the gunboats headed off the main party.
 Morgan had reached the middle of the river when the gunboats hove in s1gnt. Seeing that the bulk of his com mand would be cut off on the Ohio shore, he turned back to share their fate. Tn spite of the prevailing alarm and confusion the troopers laughed heartily over an incident of this luck less personal venture of their chief. A sne0ro hnr attaahad 10 the Sacnnd Kan.

Maud and Margery worried the life out of their mother by running away. At least once a week she would alarm the neighbors, and hunt would be started to find the runaways. Usually they had not gone far, but their mother was very much frightened every time she missed the little midgets. She de- termtned to break them of this trick. Calling them to her room one day, she said: Now, I have never whipped my little daughters, but if they run away again both of them are going to receive a smart whipping. Now, remember leave the yard"
 The two little sisters looked very grave and promised never to run away again. But few days after they for got all about their mothers Injunction and raced out of the yard and far down the street. Their mother found them talking to big colored man and grim ly brought them home. Then she took them into the house, gave them the switching promised and sat them down hard in two little chairs in the nursery &Ad0A S@ACdALS WCAC NCAAAIGs anu dS her mother heard them from the li- brary downstairs she said to herself "Well, I guess the punishment has made an impression on those children and they won't run away again.

In opposition to the wishes of his chief the rash cavalry chieftain galloped far into the enemy's country. General Basil Duke, the right hand man of Morgan, asserts that his leader intended to 1oia forces with Lee in Pennsylvania. He sent spies to ex- anime the lords of the upper Ohio for that purpose.
 In his conferences with his officers Morgan admitted the dangers in the way of his enterprise, but his enthu- siasm overcame all caution. With the brigades of A. R. Johnson and Basil

Rare Coins For Philadelphia.

Philadelphia will soon possess two OF
the rarest coins known to exist. They
are the famous silver dollars of 1874.
One is at present in the Philadelphia
mint, and the other was purchased re-
Gently by Henry Chapman, Jr., numis-
matiSt.
The latter coin was bought " Mr..
Chapman at the sale of the Murdoch
collection of coins and tokens held in
London.
The dollar purchased by Mr.. Chap
man surpasses the similar coin at the
mint in perfection and ineness.
Mr.. Chapman wrote to the auction
GERS in advance that he was willing to
pay as high as $500 for the coin. 1t
was knocked down to him for 1910.
The 1874 dollar is similar in face APP
pearance to the dollars now in %circula-
ton, having the medallion face on the
front encircled with stars and the date.

the kaiser smoked nothing but ciga-

straw color, costing a penny each.
Now he has taken to a pipe such as

Emperor Frederick, took his tobacco in
a porcelain pipe of the student type.

An Odd Horse Case.

A horse belonging to Il Missouri man
got a lump on its jaw three years ago.
Its owner had a veterinary surgeon OPP
crate on the animal the other day. and
he took out a hard, smooth substance
about four inches long and an inch
wide, resembling a white stone. Those
who have examined it say it is a petri-
fed corneob. The commonly accepted
theory is that the horse, while eating,
got a cob caught in its mouth, which
slowly worked its way into his jaw
until it lodged just beneath the skin.
The animal never seemed to suffer
from its presence.

THE CAsWELL MONUMENT BILL

A bill has been introduced by Senator
Pollock, of Lenoir county, for the pres
ervation and restoration of the Caswell
monument in Kinston.
1t was the first monument ever erect
ed by North Carolina to a North Caro-
linian,. august 3rd, $3.50, and it sGs-
tanned serious damages from the great
fires in 1895 that occurred in that town.
1t was unveiled in the presence OF
thousands of people, hallowed by the
matchless Grafton of Governor Vance, and
from it went forth a wave that has
Widened and deepened,-aroused q State
pride that has eliminated in a Confed-
crate monument in the city of Raleigh of
stateliness and great beauty, and caused
to be crowned the eastern Capitol
grounds with the imposing statue Of the
best loved of North Carolina statesmen.
A proper appropriation to this worthy
object would meet the full approval of
the people, and the News and Observer
most heartily endorses this bill to pre-
serve a monument that has such sacred
memories around about it.
