About 20 watches of various kinds and

already been recovered and five more

The sketches show a great deal of
talent, and the treatment of some of
the comic scenes such as the donkey

that the artist has an appreciation of
the humorous side of life in no small
degree. The center of the drawing
contains a good portrait of the superin-

Here is another story of the famous
eagle that went through the civil war
with the Wisconsin troops:
"Old Abe marched with Grant and
Sherman in the "ever victorious ar
my" and never once was injured or
captured. His style and his power
were shown grandly at the attack on
Corinth We quote the description
Of Mr.. Barrett: During lull in the
battle, as the enemy was preparing
again to fire from the brow Of the hill,
distant not over thirty rods from the
Eigth regiment, the eagle being eX-
posed in plain sight of the rebels,
Confederate officer was heard by sew
eral in Company G to say: There he
is-the eagle-capture him, boys" No
sooner was this command given than
the rebel artillery opened upon our
forces, under whose cover column
Just discerned in the gathering smoke
moved briskly over the crest to break
and scatter our steady front and cap
ture the prize. All this while the
eagle scanned with fire-lit eye every
movement on that hill and as the rebel
infantry hove clear out in sight he, 1t
is said whistled a startling note of
alarm, and instantly both armies
struck each other in deafening shock,
commingling with the boom and crash
of cannon that trembled forest and
valley. Shouts from both sides rent
the air, while death moved his swath
clear through both armies, and yet
the bloody gaps closed up again and
again. Such is war; In general con-
flict the eagle leaped up with a des-
perate spring, breaking his cord or
else it was cut by mimic ball, and
was seen by the combatants. circling
careering in the sulphurous smoke.
The enemy pressed nearer, eXultant,
as Il sure of their prize; the bullets
flew as hailstones; there was waver-
ing of wing-was he hit?-but the
war bird rallied again and as he rose
higher, many rebel shot went up to
bring down the American Eagle!-
but on he sped, towering above that
awful din, screaming back to his as
sailants, cycling the battle from his
sky-eyrie, when, catching the glimmer
of his comrades in the fight and the
colors where his bearer stood gazing
upward with suspense-as If inspired
by the Roman gods-he descended,
like a bolt of Jove,' to the left OF his
regiment, where McLane, flying after
him, easily caught him up in his arms,
trembling and painting with ardor and
whistling with his peculiar air Of sat-

Dr. Counter, "a young dentist of To-

Interesting Civil War Flag.

In the state museum at Raleigh, N.
c.. is one of the most interesting OF
the flags used during the civil war;
1t is known as the Bethel flag, TAX
ing it's name from the first battle Of
that struggle, fought in Virginia June
10, 1861. In this the First North Car
DINA regiment of volunteers lost Hen
ry A. Wyatt, the first Confederate sol
der killed in engagement.
The First North Carolina regiment
was formed of companies which had
responded to the governors call long
before the state seeded from the I'm
ion. Some of these companies were
in possession of the coast forts early
in April, 1861. The regiment was mo-
bilized at Raleigh, its colonel being
Daniel Harvey Hill, who afterward
rose to be lieutenant general. The
regiment was hurried to the front, and
so had the fortune to be at Bethel.
Some of the federal forces were be-
hind dwelling house during the fight
and five men volunteered to burn it..
Wyatt, not yet twenty years of, was
one of the five, and another was Rob-
ert II. Bradley, now marshal of the
state supreme court. A bullet struck
Wyatt and mortally wounded him.
The regiment was so gallant in this
action that the state convention, then
in session, ordered that the word
Bethel be inscribed upon the flag.
The flag is of silk and had eight stars,

terestingly about this flag. saying:
When the First regiment was mus
tered into service, in May. 1861. no
Confederate flag had been adopted
so far as North Carolina was con-
cerned, but several companies had col
ors of their own Company y, the
Buncombe Rihemen. from Asheville,
had this flag, which the regiment
adopted The flag was made by the
ladies of Asheville and presented by
them to the company. After the regi-
ment was mustered out of service this
flag was not placed in the hands of
the governor, but was preserved by a
member of the company from Asho-
Vile. who, after the war, moved TO
Georgia. He was James M. Young, and
ten years after sent the flag to the
governor, requesting that 1t be placed

The following letter recently APP
peared in the New York Sun:
In the winter of 49, l-65 while serv.

misfortune, was wounded and was
taken prisoner by the Confederates.

er his great-grandmother's Bible,
which, during the war, fell into the
hands of Union soldiers. If had that

me is that such squeal should come

Coolan Auain.

This is another of Gen. Gordon's
stories of the irrepressibe Doolan:
In the old Railroad Gap, just beyond
the Bull Run Range, Doolan and one
of his commanding officers found
themselves fighting side by side in
the skirmish that took place there.
The contending forces were hardly
twenty yards apart. Longstreet did
nor dare to bring his artillery into
play for fear of injuring his friends;
Jackson could not reach them because
of the dish in the hill, and meanwhile
the bluecoats were firing over the
heads of their own troops, dropping
and exploding shells with deadly eff
feet in the Confederate ranks.
This domd things gettin' person
al" remarked Doolan calmly as two
comrades dropped dead at his feet.
Seven times had the American flag
and its bearer gone down. The Con-
federate colors had already passed
through three hands, and had its staff
shot away above the handhold, but
Selling it in the middle its plucky
bearer continued to wave it, when
Look at that Yank on a white
horse!" somebody cried.
There across the field at gallop
came a brave bluecoat, guerdon in
hand, cheering and rallying the waver-
ing Federals. Such a prominent mark,
of course, drew fire from all sides, but
the rallying hero never wavered.
Doolan's commanding officer borrowed
rifle, stepped to the fence, rested at
on the top rail, and took deliberate
| aim at the horseman. AS the smoke
cleared away, the rider was seen to
throw up his arms and fall heavily
| backward. But his mission was &C.
complshed, for his troop had returned
to the charge. The officer shuddered
and buried his face in his hands, for
| the moment completely unnerved.
Doolar, loading and firing with cheer
full rapidly, took in the situation at
| glance.
"Them's my boots, Sur" he sung
out genially. II kilt him meself. Ye're

THREE ZONES IN ONE HOUR.
Two Regions in the World Where tho
People May Visit Them All.

Only two places exist on this globe
where one can pass through three
zones of temperature-the tropical,
subtropical and temperate-within an

places and Darjeeling, in northeastern
India. is another. In both these places
the trick is done by climbing up the
high mountains. In Hawaii the trav-

which potatoes and other northern
vegetables are growing.
In Darjeeling the change is still
more wonderful. The entrance to the
tableland on which the little mountain
city stands is through a dark, somber
tropical pass, full of mighty palms and
hung with orchids and other jungle
growth. After while the trees
change from palms to the wonderful
tree ferns. These alternate with ban

climbing forests are reached of mag

To be neglected and
The lowlier ones of earth
Be taken by the hand?

No preference in the better way
To any soul that lives.
Who has the right TO say
The rich and great must be
Discouraged and no way
