ESCAPED With SpoIIs OF War.

Escaped With Spells OF War.
THAT reminds me- said Shorty, of
another west Virginia story. was
born and raised in the wild country
along the south branch of the POtO-
mac. The habitatfon Of Ishmael Kee-
", a neighbor Of ours, had been in
the years before the war a way sta
ton on the underground railroad.
When the war came the family, con-
sisting OF wife, grown son and daugh-
ter, was under suspicion However,
the Keegys were Scotch-Irish, and
were Unioinists, and didn't care a corn
cob who knew it One evening the
daughter, Micah, noticed as she was
going to the springhouse, five horse
men, all armed, coming toward the
house.
"She OWNED at once that they were
coming for her brother, Nabor, who
was waiting for her at the spring
house. Given warning, NabOr swung
himself into the loft of the spring
house Just as the five stalwaTt young
rebels rode up. Miss Keegy knew
them, and, after some conversation,
invited them into the house. They
fence and went to the house for sup
per. Micah, under pretense Of going
to the springhOuse for butter, explain
ed to Major that she would keep the
young men there, dosing them with
applejack, If he would cut out with
the horses and rifles.
Major acted on the advice. and
Micah kept the 'rebs' in the house
until several shots were fired in the
woods. Then, seeing that their horses
and guns were gone, they scattered
in the woods to escape what they be
Iieved was the enemy in force. Ma
hor, finding that he could not manage
five guns and five horses, had thrown
four Of the guns into a burning brush
heap, thus producing the vOlley that
frightened the -rebs.' He rode all
night and reached the Union lines
the next morning with five as fine
horses as could be found in the state.
These horses became the nucleus Of
one Of the best cavalry companies in
the service. Chicago Inter Ocean

First Civil War Monument.


The little town Of Upton, Franklin
township, Mich, is not found upon
the railroad maps. Its population is
reported to number so souls Git may
be SD, about the same as in the stir
ring DAYS Of 81 when Mr.. Lincoln
summoned the North to preserve the
Union and the men Of Franklin town
ship responded
To the little township belongs the
distinguished honor of erecting the
first monument built by public sub
scriptiOn in the United States in mem
DRY Of those who fell during the civil
war. This unique claim has never yet
been challenged. The facts here stat
ed have been cleaned with difficulty
from the few now living who wit
messed the dedicatOry exercises, or
from their relatives near and far
The Grand Army Of the Republic
was born April 6, 1866, at Decatur, III.
On July 4. 1866, this monument Of
sandstone was erected at Upton. Re
member that this was not in a great
city or by a large section Of the cOun-
try They had only church, a school,
a blacksmith shop, and the store" as
q center. Here, at a little, sparsely
settled country crossroads, Is years
before the whistle Of a locomotive was
heard across those hills, a group Of
determined and patriotic men and
women reared the shaft Of sandstone
in memory Of their heroes and loved
ones.
The plan probably originated in the
hearts Of two men, Mr.. Samuel Wilson
and Mr.. D. W. Mapes. The former
toiled TO see that the quota OF vOlun-
teers desired Of Franklin township
was always full, and took the respOn-
sibility Of canvassing the township for
funds. The latter had three sons in
the war One Of them was killed in
the Wilderness in 1854, when only 16
years OF age He has the distinction
Of being the youngest of those whose
names are inscribed on the monument

STRIKE SETTLED.

Chicago, Sept. 9-The stock yards
strike which has demoralzed the meat
packing industry for the past two
mouths was officially declared off last
night. President Donnelly, after
getting permission from the mem bers
of the national executive committee,
made the announcement.
At a meeting of the conference
board of the allied unions last night
it was decided also to call off the
strike Of the unions whose members
went out in sympathy with the
| butchers.
When the packers were notified last
night that it had been decided to end
the strike, they announced that they
would give places as far as possible to
| the skilled meu but it was stated at
the same time that many of these men
would be unable to secure their old
places as in many cases the work was
being performed in satisfactory
| manner by men who had been secured
sihOO tuO VI tu6 btJlht.
1t is expected that the majority of the
unskilled men will be unable to
secure their places again. 1t was the
| question of a wage scale for this Gloss
of men that brought about the strike,
the packers refusing to sign an agree
ment with any class other than skilled
workmen.
During the strike approximately
SO, 600 persons have been involved, and
the struggle is estimated to have cost
the men about So, 100, 900 in wages as
against an estimated loss of 81, 500 900
to the packers in loss of business and
increased expenses. The greatest
number OF men idle in Chicago during
the strike was 26, 900 and the total in
the country outside OF this city is es-
timated to be about the same.

FOE GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP

Short Hills, N. j., Sept. 10. With
Walter J. Travis dethroned as the

these two are the survivors of field
of 1873 men representing clubs all over
the United States, who started in the
annual tournament last Tuesday
Eagan has host of followers who
believe that his consistent work dur
ing the week indicates that he will be
returned the winner. The young
New England representative also has
a strong following on account of his
decisive victories in the third round
and semi-finals yesterday Eerreshoff
defeated Ormiston of Pittsburg in the
third round this morning by four up
end three to play, although Ormis-
toms defeat of Champion Travis yes
terday made him decided favorite.
In the semi-final round Herreshoff
again displayed excellent form and
won by six up and five to play from

FREIGHT WRECK.

South Royalton, Sept S.-A freight
wreck occurred here this morning
shortly after O'Clock near the switch
just below the STATEN. 1t was the
through freight going north. and the
breaking of wheel caused five cars
to be thrown off the rails and across
the tracks. The cars were loaded
with merchandise, mostly Christmas
goods. j. j. Dillon of Nashua, N.
H., had a car of valuable horses con-
signed to Plattsburg, just ahead of
the car where the break occurred.
Traffic was delayed for short time
only as the passengers from White
River were transferred by the wreck.
No one was injured in the wreck and
had there been an embankment where
1t occurred the damage would have
been much greater.

An INQUIRY FROM
TURKEY.

The Secretary of State received to.
day a letter from Rufus M. Lane,
United States consul at Smyrna,
Turkey, letter inquirins: If there
is any record of the death of Joseph
Mallet, who is supposed to have died
in 1918, in Vermont, leaving much
property, without direct heirs. Ger
tain persons now living in Turkey be-
lieve they are the only legal heirs of
this Joseph Mallet and they are de-
sirous of obtaining information on
the subject. "
The records of the Secretary OF
States Office do not give such statis-
tics prior to 1856. The desired in
formation is sought for from outside
sources.
