ADOPTED BY BOYS IN BLUE
How a Little colofed Boy Attached
Himself Permanently to,
Union Army.

When we of the cavalry were falling
back before Lee as he was headed for
Chantilly and Bull Run, u squadron Of
us that had been detailed to bring a
wounded officer away from a house
that would 0 o be in the possession
of the advancing ~eonfederates found
ourselves shut up in front and rear.
We numbered about 80 men, and had a
two-horse ambulance in which the
wounded Ihan had been made as
comfortable as possible, We had, in
deed, advanced about a quarter of a
mile before we discovered the box we
were in. The confederates who had
come in behind us were cavalry, and
owing to a turn in the road and a bit
OF woods, had not yet seen us. The
lieutenant in command consulted
with the major whom we were bring
ing away, and explained the situation.
Prepare me as well as you can for
the ride, give me a revolver. and then
form your men by tours and ride right
down on the c~onfederates and cut your
way through" was the order of the
major.
/ was in the advance set of tours,
and the man on my right was next 10
the highway ditch. All Of a sudden,
just as we were waiting the order TO
advance. a little negro boy, not over
three years old and as black as the
blacklist tar ever made, appeared in
the ditch alongside of Parker. He
seemed to have been hiding in tho
weeds, and | think he must have fallen
out of a car or got parted from the
family as they were hurrying into the
union lines before Lees advance. AT
any rate. he was there and alone, and
as we saw him, Parker said:
Good lands! but here's a niger
baby right under foot and all alone!
What shall we do with him?"
At that moment we got the word to
go ahead, and Parker leaned over.
picked up the child and placed him in
front of the saddle. Two or three OF
us called to him to drop the boy, bur
he didn't do it. AS we moved forward
''Plck" was there and hanging on for
dear life, his eyes as white as raw
onions and every tooth plain to be
counted. We were right on the con-
federates before they saw us, and it
was biff! bang! slash! and we opened
a lane and went through, every horse
on the keen run and the wounded
major firing away whenever he found d
target for his bullets. When we final
ly got through "Pick" was with us
and all right, and he had seen his
first battle of the war. One would
have said that he liked 1t. for his grin

not seem a bit scared.
During the bloody days that fol-
lowed the little fellow was with u
company wagon, and | did not see him
for a week. Then Parker took. him
down to Alexandria and left him with
a colored woman, but a few months
later, being made company commits
sary and having the use of a wagon.
he brought Pick back to the army,
got a tailor to make him a suit Of
clothes, and then the boy was a fix
ture with us. He took to army life,
and every one of the company took to
him, and had anyone misused Pick it
would have gone hard with him. He
was with us to the very last, and !.
saw him munching bareback and
looking on while Lees ragged old vet

was a rough fellow and unmarried,

 bake. Several friends had been invited
 and when all had gathered the party
 numbered about twenty-five. Several
 bushels of clans were served late in
 the afternoon under the spreading
 branches of a. large chestnut tree and the merry throng relished the bivalves and their accompaniments very much. Previous to the banquet a game of ball was played by the younger members of the party while the little children pres ent went in search of wild flowers, and so when the time for eating supper ar rived everybody had keen appetite, and the occasion was much enjoyed. In the evening the Glee club, led by Professor Ira Fowler, rendered some of it's choicest selections, which were much appreciated. Miss Anna Brown, a fine contralto, was present and entertained the party with several fine songs. Her T Love You, Ira, Yes, I Do," was es- pecially well received. It was at a late hour when the happy party traced their footsteps hon1eward, all well pleased with the days outing. Another gath ering will be held at no distant date. Among those present were the fol- lowing: Robert Burrell, Marcus Nun son, William Flood, John Kearns, Pro- 1 lessor Ira Fowler, George Skinner, AL
 bert Buckingham. Frederick Marsh, | Frank Raynor, Grover Sweet, William Silva, William Hale, Henry Cummings,

VARIOUS ITEMS

The German Masons of this city are making preparations for their annual ,Johannistag." to be observed on June 25 at Ronslxis AIontowese farm. This affair will be strictly private and prove as brilliant a success as those held ln the past years. A. E. Eisele will again act as chief supervisor and feed the hungry. Te start is to be made at g o'clock
 The East and West Shore Ferry and Transportation company. of which AL bert L. Widman is the president and largest stockholder, has signed a con- tract with the Scott Dredging company of New London to dig a channel fifty feet wide and basin at the end of the long pier at Savin Rock. Work was begun Saturday. The plan of the com pany is to make the channel and basin deep enough to permit any ordinary vessel to land at the wharf The con- tract for the work provides for remov- ing 5000 cubic yards of sand. so that at mean low water there will be eight or nine feet of water.
 | The principal activity at the scene of the Kimberly avenue bridge operations | at this time is that directed toward the removal of the piles which supported the old structure. The piles are found | in all state of decay and preservation. For instance. those which were driven when the bridge was originally built, half century ago, are, many of them, 1 broken off in the water and will have to be taken out when the dredger gets at work this week. Some of the piles which have been taken out have been in the water but a year. Blakeslee & Sons are also doing some of the prelim- mary grading.
 Several local horses are now at Char ter Oak track training for the grand circuit meeting, which will occur there September 3.
 At South Manchester next Thursday the second tournament of the consoli- dated gun clubs of this state will be held. The main event will consist of the team races for the cash prize of S70, to be divided at the close of the series, 50, 30 and 20 per cent to winning teams.
