A boy who was killed in the Bronx recently by lightning had the likeness of fern imprinted on his body by the shock. A similar incident is reported from Europe. During a shooting eom- petition at Pont, in the Canton Vaud, the other day, the grandstand was struck by lightning. and twenty-five persons received shocks. from which, however, they sustained but little phy- sical injury One most singular effect, however, remained. Every person who had felt the electric shock had, photo graphically stamped, upon the back. the face or the arms. the reflection of the pine trees behind the firing line.

Amazing said a scientist. lis
the popularity of the belief that
toads live for long spaces of time
in rocks. Only last week quar-
ryman sent me toad that he
had found imbsdded, he said, in a
solid block of stone. OF course
there is no truth in the idea that
these reptiles can exist shut up for
years without food and air. but
there is truth in the sto ries of
their being found in rocks. The
rocks. though. are not solid, as
the finders incline to think, aid
the tosds have only been in then.

thinks the reptile has been there

colored, fisherman, who resides

metallic case floating in the river.
He threw line around the case
and towed it to the bank. The case
was made by Crane and Breed of

es long. and had proven practically
water tight. The decomposed re-
mains of a child probably ten or
eleven years of age remain in the
case. The glass in the case is not
broken.
As to how the case got into the
river is of course, uncertain; prob
ably some cemetery has caved into

The Candidates at Aberdeen.

The cavalcade Of candidates who
are rounding up the campaign in
Monroe county, arrived at Aber-
deem and filled their appointment
at the court house Tuesday night,
to fine audience. 1t was the first
public appearance in the city of
those seeking Legislative honors,
and desire was prevalent to hear
the gentlemen and learn what plat
forms or issues were presented.
The first speaker was DR. Nj. NJ.
Davis for the Senate followed by
Hon. w. b. Walker for the same
office. These gentlemen were fol
lowed by candidates for the lower
house in the order named: Rev :.
O.. w. Burnett, h. +. Cowley, l..
ID. Hollingsworth, Ben Mcfarland,
John p. Shaw, John w Thompson,
j. j Basham and Dan Brewer,
each of whom was allowed fifteen
minutes in which to present his
case"
As general rule no particular
issues were advanced, but the sub
jects of good roads, uniform text
| books, better poor house appropri-
atoms. increased pensions for the
old soldiers for and against reduc-
ton of the poll tax, taxation of
foreign loan companies within con-
stitutional limits, change in the
system of selecting grand jurors,
and other topics about which the
taxpayers are concerned, were
freely and fully discussed, but al
lignments with Senatorial or State
candidates were studiously avoid
ed; in fact not the name of my
State candidate was ute. ed by any
of the speakers.
The candidates for sheriff were
then heard Messrs. Sam Baker,
II +. Broyles, r c. Crenshaw and
Il. .. Jones, who presented their
claims in speechlets of seven and
a-half minutes.
For county superintendent of ed
ucation Messrs. Il. T. Davenport
and w. q. Davis made their an
nouncements, also Mr.. H.A BRAZIL
for county treasurer, which closed
the list for the evening. The
speeches were all listened to with
great interest and each aspirant re-
ceived enough applause to assure
him of success at the election next
Thursday.

The registration in Lincoln
county is reported at $3.50, of which
254l are white. 1t is very evident
that the revision in E,any counties
of the state has been made in a
perfunctory manner, and not as
thoroughly as the primary election
law requires. In the report from
Lincoln there is no Indication that
single name has been emoved
from the registration or poll books
for tax delinquencies or for any
other cause; and doubtless the
same condition exists in other
counties.

War "reminiscences.
By J. NJ. HOLBERT.

AT the close of my last letter |
was on the patriotism of the ladies
of the south during the war be-
tween the States. After l quit
writing, as bill Arp" would say,
l was Illuminating, that is. my
mind ran back to the many acts of
kindness shown by the fairest la
dies that ever waved salure to
soldier. Now | pass in memory
through the scenes of the lalies es-
corting Us 10 the depots to~see Us
leave. many of rs never to return,
bidding US good-bye with tears
and waving Of handkerchiefs until
we could see them no longer. Then
along our route would sing
Dearest one, do you remember when we
last did meet
And you told me how you loved me, kneel-
ing at my feet!
Oh, how proud you stood before me In
yor suit of gray
When you vowed from me and country
ne'er TO 20 astraY-"
We would find crowds along the
railroad to see US pass. When one
thinks of all the encouragement
we had | don't see what kept us
from marching straight 10 Wash
layton and capturing Abraham
Lincoln, his cabinet. congress and
all the Federal Generals, and max
ing short work of it. Our Generals
must have restrained the impetu-
osity of their men.
Our company was organized too
late to get into the first requisition
by Jefferson Davis, consequently
had to remain at home until the
second call was made, which was
longer than any other company
after organization. Many of the
men became impatient and afraid
the war would close before they
got into single battle. We drilled
nearly all the time, so that before
we received marching orders near
ly every private in our cnmpany
could have drilled regiment.
Three weeks were passed sleeping
in the churches at Smithville at
night, drilling all day. Our rations
were furnished by the people of
Smithville and vicinity and cooked
by Mrs. DIR. Eliot who kept no.
tel. Three more weeks were passed
at the houses while out on drill
partak ing of hospitality of the cit
liens. We remember kindnesses
at the hands of the fine old fami-
lies of the Eliots, McCrummens,
Dalrymples, Dansbys, Cheeks,
Cowleys, Stegalls and many others
that make green and pleasant spots
in our history.
On the fourth of July our flag
which had been made by the Ia
dies of Smithville and vicinity,
was presented TO the Red Rover
Company. On one side of it was
painted the figure of cotton stalk
with large rattle snake coiled
under it, and the words, Touch,
and | will strike" On the other
side was inscribed the motto,
"Our rights or death" The pre-
sentation was made in an eloquent
speech by Miss Fannie McCrum-
men, later Mrs. O.. w, Pennington
and was accepted in a speech by
Captain Armstrong. The compa
ny was in full uniform, armed
with old flint lock, muzzle-loa ding
muskets On these we had to de-
pend until we could capture better
ones from the enemy, and his we
were not long in doing after get
ting into battle.
Ia my next will be given my
idea of how and who to select as
chaperons. sponsors and maids OF
/ honor
