into the prison by a faithful negro. In startling headlines they read, Meade Defeated at Gettysburg, The Northern Army Fleeing to the Mountains" !" Grant Repulsed at Vicksburg," The Campaign Closed in Disaster" The depression caused by this was simply awful The poor emaciated fel- lows broke down and cried like babies. They lost all hope. While in this con- dition a later edition of the same paper was brought in by the same negro. Chaplain MeCabe got the paper and read aloud to them. He began at the headlines: Grant has Captured yicksburg and Taken Thirty Thousand Prisoners" Meade Defeated Lee at Gettysburg, Taking Fourteen Thou sand Prisoners"
 The revulsion of feeling was almost too great to endure. The boys went crazy with joy. They saw the begin ming of the end. Chaplain McCabe who was sweet singer, sprang upon box and struck up:
 Mine eyes have seen the glory of the i, coming of the Lord,
 He is trampling out the vintage where
 the grapes Of wrath are stored. He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword; His truth is marching on.'' The way in which the five hundred men joined in the chorus of Glory, glo- | ry, glory, halleluiah" gave evidence l that there was lots of life left in them yet.
 l But mustn't weary you by talking longer this morning. Thanking you. dear veterans, for your presence and kindly attention. and the honor you have given me of addressing you on 1 this sacred theme, may I close with the admonition that as you fought amid the bravest of the brave in the great conflict of long ago, so with equal fidel- ity you learn to do well in the greater battles of life in which you are still en- gagged. The Bible speaks truly when it says: Strive to enter in" ''The king dom of heaven sufferetth violence" It implies difficulty; 1t bespeaks energy. It is, however, in perfect harmony with the great law of nature and of life.
 "Who struggles with his baser self, l Who concuers and is free l He may not wear a hero's crown, l Nor fill hero's grave; But truth will place his name among
 The bravest Of the brave" God grant that we may all enjoy the eternal bivouac of tse skies, When the dreams of lie are fled

CITY COURT CASES.
Yale Commons Waiter Fined for
 Assault.

Yale Commons Waiter Fined for Assault. With a fraternal affection almost un-
 known between strikers and those who venture to fill their places. George ". Chisholm yesterday morning implored
 Judge Tyner in the city court to with
 draw the charge of breach of the peace preferred by the former against Will | liam Thornton, whose place as waiter
 at the Yale dining hall Chisholm had taken at the outbreak Of the strike re- gently inaugurated at the Commons
 quarters. In the same line Thornton expressed the most friendly feeling for
 his successor, and deniel all intention
 of doing him bodily harm. All the same, he paid ten dollars into the city treasury.
 Timothy Harrington, alias Hurley,
 was bound over to the superior court yesterday under $1.0O0 bonds for theft
 from the person of Peter F. Owens, of Wooster street.
 Harrington has just finished serving
 term for a similar offense. W. Cunningham, of 6S0 Quinnipiac avenue, charged with removing a con- ltagious disease placard from 76 South
 Front street, will be tried in the city court June 4.

Dog Accused as Drunkar,d.

Sour Lake, Tex.-A seven-year-old boy was bitten by fierce dog while he was at play,
 A neighbor applied ca1istic to the la cerations, but the mother is fearful that the dog was suffering from hydrophobia. The same, dog has bitten three other children and several dumb animals in the past thre days
 Those who claim to know this par ticular dog tell 1t as a fact. that 1t Is a drunkard. It is said that the canine gets beer from kegs and that he watches his chances at first one saloon and then another with as much precision as would a Bowery drunkard.

Salt it first with common salt and let 1t lie on table for a day that the blood may run from it. Then make a brine with a pint of bay salt, quarter peck of common salt, quarter of, a pound of Juniper berries and some bay leaves, with as much water as will, when the brine is made, cover the bacon; when the salt is dissolved and when quite cold if a new laid egg will swim in 1t, the brine may be put on the bacon, which after q week must be rubbed with the following mixture; half pound of saltpetre, two oNnces of sal-pruneIla, and one pound of course sugar: after four weeks it may be hung in a chimney where wood is burned; shaw ings, with a small quantity of turf, may be added at times to the fire.

CLEAN CLOTHES IN BATTLE
beisnce Suggests Cloanliness of woar- Ing Apparel Before Begin
 ming a Conflict.

Socrates took a bath before drinking
 ae hemlock, and many brave men have
 .sisted on dressing carefully on the Bee of execution. Science now suggests that in the case of mAn-o'-war crews It is distinctly advisable that clean clothes should be put on just before going into action" Tke reason iS, of eoufSe, that pieces of soiled clothing carried into wounds make them more dangerous. The Japaness surgeon-in- chief of Togo's fleet. whom we are quot- ing, goes on to say that there are many examples to show that a pocket note- book, knife, etc, have saved mems lives from shell fragments. We have had few examples in the present war. [ dare say that in time every combatAnt on board warships in action will wear some kind of protecting mask and Jackets" Another hint given by pr. Suzuki is that the wounded should be laid on the firing. not the non-aring, Side of the vessel, for it is not the side Ixposed to the enemy which is the most dangerous, but the other, ''ths frag- ments of bursting shells dispersing ip R1 radiating manner"

MIoHT HAVE, BEEN HIs HAT
Senator Tillman Relates Story Which Shows How 1Kildness May
 Turn Away Wrath.

Senator Tillman was talking to some reporters about the efficacy of mildness in debate. "One can't be too mild" he said. and one gets on es- pecially well if along with one's mild ness there goes some rare and unsx- pected quality. To be mild and at the same time unexpected Is, usually, to succeed. Here is an instance Of what I mean. At the end of theatrical performance one man turned to an- other, and cried in. a harsh, grating voice:
 Look here, you have sat on nay silk hat. It Is ruined.
 "The other looked at the silk hat. kt was indeed wreck He said:
 !" I am sorry. This is too bad. But . he added, 1t might have beeni,worse 2
 How might 1t have been worse? P exclaimed the flrEt man with an oath.
 '"The answer then given was an ex- cellent example of mildness coupled with unexpectedness. It was:
