around the neck. The bear, however,
much to the relief of Miss Wells COM
panion, did not reciprocate the caress,
although he seemed to enjoy it.
Miss Wells is the 15-year-old daugh-
ter of wealthy cotton dealer of Aus
tin, Tex. She is beauty of the true
southern type, imbued with the daring
spirit and nerve that so often are
found in the western plains girl, and
Is large for her age. Recently, with
her father, Col w. G. Walling, a typ
lcal southwestern character, she start
ed on tour of the northwest. The
party visited Seattle a short time ago,
and from here went to Yellowstone
park. There they made the journey
through the park in one of the wagons
utilized for tourist travel, and Mr.
Cameron, newspaper man, happened
to be in the party during that trip
He described Miss Wells daring esca-
pade as follows:
Our party had stopped for the noon
hour luncheon, and, while the meal
was being prepared, Miss Wells and
started out to pick few berries. We
had gone but short distance, when,
about hundred yards away, we saw a
large cinnamon bear browsing among
the bushes. Knowing that all the ami
mails in the park are more or less tame,
we approached the beast. l held ND
my hand, and the bear, thinking that
| had something for him to eat. stood
on his hind feet and reached up. but,
finding that he had been deceived,
shook his head angrily and walked
away. My young companion then ran
back to the wagon and returned with
few cookies. Again we approached
the bear, and Miss Wells held one OF
the cookies up in her hand. The bear
repeated the same performance he had
gone through with me, but this time
he found something. Miss Wells
gradually drew back her hand while
the animals head was over her Shout
der. and then, while he was eating the
cookie she reached around his neck
with her other arm and Rugged him
tightly. My heart seemed to stop
beating, but 1 dared not yell, for tho.
animal would be startled and attack
the girl. When he had finished eating
the cookie, however, he merely dropped
down on all tours again and sauntered
off into the brush. In all my expert
ences, l have never seen more reck-
less or daring and even dangerous ae-
ton by young lady"

OF sulphur smoke, for Ricketts,, too, has
come up with his division on the left
| OF the corps, and a battle of giants Is
| on.
But vain are the efforts of Hooker's
brave men. Three fine, disciplined di-
! visions he has led to the field, think
ing to turn an exposed left flank, while
Mansfield, with his new Twelfth corps,
supports the attack, and the main
army. advancing in force from the line
OF the Antietam, covers and holds the
long confederate front extending far to
the south Of the town. Just whom to
blame nobody will say, but, not until
Hooker's right division is swept by
tapping fires and flattened out by the
fierce storm of lead; not until Meade
and Ricketts,, farther to the east, have
charged again in line with Doubleday's
left; not until Doubleday, not whipped,
but brought to stand, is fairly bat
Ting for breath, do the brigades of
Mansfield appear at the east, coming
late into action, and even then by no
means prepared. Many battalions are
new and unskilled, and before the
brigade can be brought into line, gal
liant, gray-headed old Mansfield drops
dying from his horse. Williams sue
ceeds to command; but before Hooker
half finishes giving his orders, he, too,
commanding all troops at that moment
west of the stream, is stricken and
borne from the field, stripping it there
by of both corps commanders, and
leaving the right to the care of men
ignorant of McClellan's plans, and con-
fronted by the best fighters in the
southern host.
Campbell, the captain, is shot from
his saddle. Half the right wing of the
Sixth is gone. Half the commanders
are now killed or wounded. Not a
lieutenant colonel is left in the Iron
Brigade. Allen, Bragg and Bachman
are borne from the line, the last named
TO his soldier grave. The lone effort
IS fruitless, save for its glories and
the fierce punishment given the foemen
in front. There, indeed, is destruction
equal to this in the cornfields and along
the Hagerstown pike. No wonder old
Jack bows his head in grief and sup
piication. Again he has lost both di-
vision commanders, Lawton and Jones
being wounded. So, too, falls Douglas,
heading Lawton's brigade, and with al
most breaking heart Jackson sends
word to his beloved general that half
the commands of Lawton and Hays
and fully one-third of Trimble's are
killed or wounded, as are all regi-

CHAPTER Xxx.

A CRY FROM THE AMBULANCE.
The autumn, the wasted autumn has
gone, the winter of our discomfort"
indeed has come. For weeks the army
hangs there inert and chatting along
the Potomac, while Lee and his bronzed
veterans saunter away through the
Shenandoah, feeding on the fat of the
land" Marveling at the inaction of
Mcclellan, Stuart rides back with 800
horse and two light guns and, of
course, Pelham; and, just as he did a
few months earlier down on the pen
1nsula, joys contemptuously clear
round the bewildered and indignant
divisions, laughing at the effort of
Pleasanton to catch or others to head
him. Mcclellan says his cavalry is
too wearied and broken down to ac-
complish anything, and the president
mildly asks what it has been doing to
so fatigue it. Another correspondence
OF complaints begins, and finally ends
at Warrenton, when the order comes
early in November that sewers once
and for all McClellan's connection with
the Army of the Potomac. He had
done much to make it, God knows.
He was great as an organizer and in
structor. He had the faith and regard

mental commanders but two. Thank
God, it's their last fight with the Iron
Brigade.
Before breakfast is over at the Pry
house, where sit little Mac and the
big staff, Hooker's fight on the right
flank is over and done. Then another
is started in front of the east wood,
and later others occur along the line
TO the south, and wherever a corps is
sent into attack, Lee scrapes up
corps to meet and repel it. Con-
certed action might have given the
union a needed, a much needed, vic
tory, but concert there is none. One
splendid and disciplined corps has been
held in reserve, and when toward the
last the serene young general-in-chief,
never excited or hurried, never able
to see flaw in his own dispositions,
seemed yielding to pressure and about
sending them in, he hearkens to the
words of their brilliant commander. so
said veteran regulars at the time:
Remember, general, l command the
last reserve of the Army of the Poto-
mac"
And so night settles down and Lees
little army, superbly led, has beaten
back in succession the scattered at
tacks of McClellan's overwhelming
force. All through the hours of dark
ness the surgeons are at work with
| the thousands of wounded. All
through the following day Lee waits
for renewal of the battle, but McClel-
lap has had enough. With the COM

BE glad and the world has happiness,

Be sad and the world is full of sadness;
whoever you are and whatever you do,
Fer your JOY the world Will return you

The scenes that were drear to you yester-

When you saw them, nursing a bitter
sorrow,
Will please. if you put your despair

And bebold them gladly again to-nor-
The task that is hard when your heart

And that seems so futile when all Is

Becomes joy If you labor, glad
That your strength is great and your
gifts are splendid.
We must reap from the fields in which
We SOW:
The harvest is what we make it.
Plant woe and the crop can be only woe;
JOY springs from the joy that We give

Be glad and the world sreflects your
