Stage Drivers of Early DAYS.

Speaking of stage drivers reminds one
of the glory of stages, which reached
its crOwning point when rival lines
ran between Sacramento and Virginia
City-siX magnificent horses to each
coach, the coaches the finest possible,
the horses caparisoned with every or
nament which could be added to en-
nance their beauty.
The driver, in a bearskin coat and
cap, with bearskin gauntlets, was a
sovereign in his way. No matter what
the grade was, no matter how fierce
the blizzard or how deep the snow,
he carried things through on schedule
time. He cared nothing for snowslides
or high water, and his ruling idea was
that he must make the station ahead
of the opposition line.
In this work there We're q dozen men,
each with personality of his own and
all with a perfect art in their hands
and their brains which made them SOW
ereigns, and the locomotive that sue
ceeded them did not very much in
crease the time which some of them
made. Each had his friends, his cham
pions; each was greatest in his sphere
among certain crowd, but they We're
altogether great. The like of them was
never before and never will be again.

charge from the fort said: The enemy

they came with a rush. Our guns fired
shrapnel at first, but soon began to

Captain Weiss says thai forty to
fifty men went down in the rush across
the plain and the survivors struggled
on to the ditch. Many were killed at
the edge Of the mOat, but after short
breathing spell fifty or sixty brave
blacks scaled the parapet by making
human ladders of their comrades. At a
signal this brave handful made a CON
certed dash, but were met with a gall
ing fire from the muskets which al
most touched their breasts. Half of
the stormers lay dead or helpless in the
ditch. The gallant few on the wall were
repulscd. Then the Confederates tossed
burning shells over the wall upon the
survivors, and Weiss surrendered to
save further useless slaughter. Only
one of this band escaped. Many of the
captured had been wounded, and fifty
five died as prisoners.

column of COnfederates burst from be-
hind a screen of woods 400 yards away
and dashed for the right angle of the
work. 1t happened that Stannard had
stationed his Spencer riflemen at that
critical point. The light batteries in
the fort were without ammunition and
the heavy guns useless at short range,
so salvation depended upon muskets
and the men behind them. The Spen-
Ger rifles moved down the front line of
Confederates in swaths. The survivors
ran back to the shetering wood, but a
second line came on with fiercer yells
and in Il rush which carried to the
edge of the ditch. Again the slaughter
was fearful, and the survivors threw
down their guns.
The repulse of these charges used up
all the ammunition for the Spencers.
Stannard paced the rampant with his
sword in one hand, his hat in the other,
encouraging his men to fight to the end.
Fortunately wagon load of Spencer
cartridges reached the fort in the nick
of time, although the horses were shot
down in their traces, and the Spencer
rifles were ready for the third and last
Confederate charge. While repulsing
this attack Stannard stood erect on
the walls, and bullet which shattered
his right arm sent him headlong to the
ground like a stone. His men, being
engrossed with repulsing the foe then
advancing along the whole front, did
not learn of their leaders fall until the
Confederates had turned their backs
upon the work for good. Then their
wild cheers were arrested by the star
Ting rumor sent along the line in whis-
pers, "Stannard is killed.
But the hero was only an arm miss

rison, which was held by its captors to
the end of the war.

Outside Prussia, his own kingdom,
the kaiser is, strictly speaking, a for
eigner. Should he visit Hamburg he is
a foreign guest of the burgomaster,
who rules Hamburg as a monarch and
is reckoned with the sOvereigns of the
German states. Similarly whenever
the kaiser visits the courts of his al
lied sovereigns of Bavaria, Wurttem-
berg, Saxony and so on he is a guest,
not proprietor. His relations with
these kings are only those of chair
man toward his fellow directors.
The kaiser only has free entree to the
other states in his capacity of COM
mander Of the army, and he is able to
travel anywhere as a general, but not

to see the tomb of XerXes or somebody

Weston. True, the scenery had no in

him to dose most of the way, but
he actually got out of the carriage
when the tomb was reached and put
up his eyeglass to study the epitaph.
He did more. He got lunch basket
and bottle of champagne from his

himself to say:

So did something else-something not
