THE YATES PHAlANx.
Interesting Bit Of "Reminiscences
y Eager to Enlist and Hard
Fighters Afterwards.

"The Yates phalanx," said the captain
had hard time getting into the serv-
ice and hard time getting out. l re-
member we'll that we began to organ.
ize the phalanx as soon as the news came
to Chicago that Fort Sumter had been
fred on. We had 800 men for the regi-
ment when we received notice that the
quota of the state was more than full
and that we could not be accepted under
the first call. The men were so disap-
pointed and irritated that they joined
in an effort to have the regiment accept
ed by the state of Missouri. The tender
OF 800 fighting men was no small thing
In the first months of the war, but Mis-
souri, could not accept us and the boys
were in state of mind.
I'VE had banked on our name. Yates
phaIanx, carrying us through, but other
regiments got ahead of us in complet-
ing organization. We thought the gov
ernOr hadn't taken enough interest in
his phalanx, and some Of US told him SO.
Thereupon the governor, to show his
interest in the regiment. sent Capt. o.
l.. Mann to Washington to urge the i'm
mediate acceptance of the phalanx.
Finally the regiment was accepted as the
Thlrty-ninth Illinois infantry, the day
after the first battle of Bull Run was
fought. We left Chicago October IL,
1861, for St. Louis Five weeks later We
were ordered to Williamsport. Nd, and
in month were soldering with the best
of the regiments in the field
I'VE went into the service a prize
drill battalion and in good time we won
reputation as good marcners and
fighters. and Gov. Yates showed a very
kindly interest in us. While We were
IN North Carolina. in January, 1862 the
governor sent us a new flag with his
portrait On it. and several months later
we took that flag into Fort Wagner on
Morris island. South Carolina under
what might be called a suspension Of
the rules. That was a long siege. and We
We're in the trenches good many times.
1t SO happened that we were in the
trenches on the night the general as
sault was ordered. Our outlook discoy-
cred that the fort was being evacuated,
! and under the leadership of Col. 0. L.
Mann we scrambled into the fort just
in time to cut the fuses set to blow up the
! Notifications.
After a scrap with the confed-
| crate rear guard we hoisted the
Yates flag on the parapet and our
| commanding officer sent a quaint
| dispatch to Gen Gilmore. an
! nouncing that the Yates phalanx was
in the bombproofs of Fort Wagner two
hours ahead of time. This was talked
about good deal when we yeteranized
in January. 1854. and came to Chicago
on veteran furlough. We went back in
March with $50 men in the regiment to
Buffers Army of the James, and in the
course of the next SIX months lost near
| ly 200 of them in battle. In the charge
at Deep Run. for example. we climbed
over the confederate works to find then,
ready for hand-to-hand fight. They
put 104 of our men out of action. but We
captured the works.

RETAIN YOUTRFULNESS.
Many Women Let Themselves Grow
' Old and Faded Through Neglect
of a Little Precaution.

The old woman who wants to be
young must learn all over again how to
walk. And before she does this she
must learn how to stand. Stand we'll
and you will walk we'll is a pretty good
rule, declares Nine. darcy.
To stand we'll your feet must be COM
Portable. And this is good thought
for the elderly woman. Make your
feet comfortable. Few old women are
able to stand we'll because they have
aches and pains which make their feet
feel i'll at ease.
Feet @n be kept more comfortable
by rubbing them with vaseline every
night. They can be kept comfortable
by changing the shoes every day. New
long. And there is another shoe rule
namely, that shoes should be fire.
quently eased. Take your shoes and
wet them soaking wet. Take walk in
them and let them dry on the feet.
This will mold them to the form of the
foot.
And another thing. If the shoes feel
hard and stiff rub them with oil.
Grease your shoes frequently if you
want to have them comfortable. You
must keep the leather soft and pliable.
Stockings should fit the feet. There
are too many pairs OF ill-fitting stock
ings. And when the matter of shoes
and stockings has been arranged there
should come the question of heels.
As soon as woman feels old and
tired she begins to wear low heels. She
takes the lifts" off her heels and she
lets her step become laggy. Have your
heels of good height. Preserve the
arch of the foot. Don't let your feet
grow fiat. Try always to have trim,
neat-looking shoes. These are excel
lent foot rules for any woman.
Now, about the walk. There is an
English instructor who gives these
rules for walking young"
ITO walk young, walk erect. Bring
the abdomen in. Throw the chest out.
Take long steps. Place the feet at
right angles or as nearly so as you
can Lift the chin. Throw back the
head. Raise the eyes. Breathe deep
ly. And don't mince."

ARMY SCOUTS TRICYCLE..
John Armstrong Said to Have Used
Old Three-Wheeler Now at
East Weymouth.

In little barn on Canterbury street,
East Weymouth. Mass, surrounded by
old furniture and covered with a man
tie of cobwebs, rests one of the Oldest
tricycles in the country. and one which
saw much service and figured in many
events during the civil war.
It was built by John Armstrong. alias
Kelley, scout in the union service. He
travelled many miles on the old ma
chine, and, according to stories told, it
carried him out of danger on several &C.
casions. Before the war he built the
machine. constructing the hub of the

ing with Hello! How de do?" A new
man on the place was so greeted, and
returned the salutation to the great
amusement of the other men.
Persons passing would hear some one
say: Hello! Hold on a minute!" They
would stop. Then Jim would laugh
and chuckle and cry: 20, go 'long!"
He has for chums massive English
mastiff, a smaller dog, cats and hens.
If the dogs grow familiar, and try to
get his meat, he will initiate his mas
ter's voice and say: Get out!'
If the cats get in his way, he grasps
them by the tail, giving severe pinch.
While very friendly with the hens,
if they annoy him, he pulls their feath-
ers out
He often stops his masters horse by
saying: whoa, back up"
When thirsty or wishing to battle. he
will call: Water! Water!"
When he wants, worms, he willstart
for the garden and say: Come on
comet"
A young man was employed in hayins
named Charley. At dinner time jim,
came under the window and said: "Hel
10. Charley; come on, comet" Charley
did not believe it was Jim, so he wen,
to the door. Jim gravely started for the
garden, and again said: Hello, Charley:
come on, GOMEZ"
The present winter he roosts over
the pig pen. When the pigs are fed, he
calls: pig, pig, pig!"

THE FRESH AIR TONIC.
For the Woman with a Notified O
Dingy Skin the Following Is Writ
ten and Should Be Observed.

Fresh air is superlatfve tonic in
the promotion of beauty: Many .
woman's notified complexion is due to
the vitiated atmosphere she breathes.
For one reason or another, she gets
very little of the fresh air tonic She
comes to notice a slight dinginess
creeping over the natural clearness of
her face. Forthwith she wonders what
she is using that il spelling the texture
of the skin. She tried another kind
of soap and changes the brand of her
cold cream: But her complexion keeps
right on gathering shadowy hue.
Tr4e, she isn't feeling very we'll
just little languid. She tells herself
''th9k tired feeling" means that all the
cure she needs is rest" She doesn't
mistrust that this lassitude is physi-
cal hint that she needs fresh air tonic
in order to keep the muscles elastic, to
invigorate circulation of the blood, to
stimulate the skin. When any of these
physical conditions begins to lose tone
the complexion pays the penalty.
When the dinginess is ever so slight.
the fresh air tonic should be taken
without delay. walk Of a mile or
two provides fresh air and exercise
The face should not be covered with
veil. A cool wind is first-rate ,stim-
ulant for the skin. The walk should
take place every day and a longer dis
lance should be covered, gradually.
The fresh air tonic may be taken in
a heated room with the windows open.
The walk may be taken up and down
the room with a variation in swinging
the arms and practicing high steps.
Moreover, the woman with a dingy
or notified complexion should sleep in

GRAND OLD MAN
 THEORY ExPLODE
(Douglas Island News)


 The Cablegram, published at Sitka, deals out bunch of wholesale criti- cism of the papers of Southeastern All aska, because they continue to fight Brady. The editor of that paper takes the ground that because Brady was not removed by the president, he should now be immune from all attacks, no matter how rottenly incompetent he may be.
 It appears to us that were the people of Alaska to give up the struggle to get rid of Brady, that fact would in itself be an admission that they had been wrong, and that Brady is the grand old man he pretends to be. The fact of the business is that the. 'tLr4nd Old Man" theory has been entirely explod- ed. Tie people are now pretty well convinced that while no assertions of dishonesty have been made against Brady in the past by the always ag- gressive press, that is where they miss ed it.
