peared he advanced and rubbed mis-
nose against their legs. The caress
told much. 1t told of how Blind Nell
had at last given away and now sne
was lying i'll in some uncomfortapie
spot. 1t told why the hand organ was
silent 1t told that even mean. yei-
low cur was not without heart ana
that he alone stood between the OLD
woman and starvation. And the ca
ress touched many and there was
heap of bright silver in the cup before
the DAVIS work had begun in the down
town district.
Dog Takes the Money Home.
He disappeared while the morning
was still young. His course was in
Van Buren, street and down Wabash
avenue. All trace of him was lost as
he rounded the corner, but the meet
ing of the old woman and the old dog
with cup of silver must have been a
happy one.
He was back at the corner when the
shoppers began to arrive. The women
were touched by the story told on the
placard and they contributed freely.
At noon the dog disappeared again
He rested this time and perhaps the old
woman told him what a great friend
he was, for it was almost time for the
stores to close when he reached the
corner.
There was another flow of pennies
nickels and dimes and the cup was
half full when thief came along. He
stopped and patted the animal on the
back and at the same time tried to
empty the cup. But Blind Nelfs" dog
had learned to read men and a growl
warned the stranger that 1t would be
unsafe for him to take any of the
money. The dog disappeared as dark
ness came and Blind Nell" will have
all to eat that she wants for the next
few days at least.

Liaoyang. July 27.-(Delayed THE
Russian retirement from Tatche Kaio

file. who. after two days hard fighting
had held their positions and believed
themselves on the eve Of a great vic
tory.
The Russian artillery was better dis
posed than in any previous fight. The
positions were selected having in view
the lesson learned at Vafangow. The
batteries scientifically supported each
other, all of them being in a position
to deliver the most effective fire. On
the last days fight, July q. the Rus
slams fired 4,016 shots and frequently
smothered the Japanese fire and caused
them to shift their batteries.
Colonel Paschenko, whose battery
distinguished itself. had marvellous
escape. He was thrown bodily into
the air by the explosion Of a shell, but
was unframed and continued to fight.
Later he was wounded in the hand
while waving a signal to the guns.

JEFF DAVIS ARTILLERY
HISTORY OF A FAMOUS CONFEDER
ATE COMMAND.
~ Has Been Complied by Judge John
Purifoy and filed In the Arch
ives of Alabama.

typewriter history of The JEFF
Davis Artillery" famous Alabama
command in the great war between the
States, has been filed in the Depart
ment of Archives and History by Judge
John Purifoy of Montgomery, the au-
thor.
Judge Purifoy was a corporal in the
famous battery. He was among the
first to enlist in the battery and was
with it in every engagement the COM
mand took part in. He was with the
battery from the time of its organi-
zation until the fateful day at Apo
mattox when the remnant of the bat
terry formed a part of the remnant OF
Lees great army. The author after the
war served as Probate Judge of Will
cox County, member of the Legislature
from that county, State Auditor and
Examiner of Public Accounts. He Is
now a resident of Montgomery.
The heavy work involved in the col
lection of data and in the writing OF
the history which is an especially full
one. was a labor of love on the part OF
Judge Purifoy. 1t was his purpose
that the men who rendered such ser
vice to the South, who displayed such
bravery as did his comrades should, at
least, have their deeds and RECORDS
transcribed He leaves 1t with the De-
partment of Archives and History that
it may be a partial guide to the future
historian who may undertake the
writing of a history of the conspicuous
part played by the Alabama soldier in
the greatest of modern wars. which
Judge Purifoy terms the Confederate
War The history contains as full a
roster of the command as could be
secured with a brief history of each
officer and man and what became of
him after the war.
The jeff Davis Artillery was organ
ICED in June. 1851, first going into camp
near the city of Selma. 1t was made
up of young men living in the coun-
ties of Dallas, Perry. Wilcox. Greene
Lowndes and other Black Belt coun-
ties. The people of these counties fur
nished the battery with horses enough
for an eight gun battery. 1t was mus
tered into service in Montgomery and
drawn up before the Capitol steps the
command was addressed by Governor A.
B. Moore before departing for the war.
The command achieved wide dis
tinction in the great struggle. No
battery in the army. perhaps, partici-
pated in more enga gements. 1t was
the fate of the command to have a part
in the most sanguinary contests that
marked the progress of the war in
Virginia. At Cold Harbor, Seven Pines,
Mechanicsville, Second Manassas, Thor
oughfare Gap, Gettysburg and other
fields of honor the command played it's
part.
The first captain was Joseph T. Mont
gomery, who was a school teacher at
Summerfield when the war broke out.
At various times the battery was COM
manded by j. w. Bondurant, William
]. Reese and r. F. Beckham.
The history will be published in book
form by the author if sufficient inter-
est is manifested in the work.
