Upon the fields the snow lies soft and white,
Within their angles, drifted, heap on heap

All crested with the flying f1akelets light.

Through crust of adamant, its star-gems

And throw their diamond brilliance, where
the pine
And solemn spruces sing their symphonies.
Above it lift the elms their years Of strength,
The stately pOplars solitary wait,
Their golden glory of the autumn late
Now Wondering within the furrOwe length.
The blue smoke watts and wreathes the lit

Hardsby the teamster's cottage. and the
Flaants his blue beauty on his winged
With clamor searching for his winter food.

The garden blooms. and faiths fair vision

TEXAS ANTITRUST LAW UPHELD.

Constitutional. u
[ Boston Sunday Globe. I

The Supreme Court of the United
States has decided the case of the
National Cotton Oil Company VS.. the
State of Texas, involving the Texas
antitrust law. The court found the
company guilty under that law and
held that it had forfeited its right to do
business in the State.
The case was appealed to the Supreme
Court on constitutional grounds. That
court, however, in its opinion which
was delivered by Justice McKenna,
held that the charge was un-tenable
and sustained the verdict of the court
below.
The Texas law is one of the most
radical antitrust measures in the
country.

London interprets his words he does not de-

some alarmed sociologists regard as the
true sign of virility In a race. He prefers
quality to quantity in this as In some other
popular phenomena. Not the greatest

ARMOR FOR SOLDIERS.
A Tale of Pierced Breastplate in the
Civil War.
From the Chicago ter-ocean.

From the Chicago Inter0cean.
This talk about armor for soldiers" said
the captain, reminded ME of an incident
in the battle of Fort Stevens, near Wash
ington. in July 1864. I participated in that
engagement as captain of Company A, 1st
Colored Infantry. defenses of Washington.
The regiment was composed of government
employees organized for defense of Wash
irgton. and did good service when Early
advanced on the capital. but no mention Is
made of the regiment or its services in any
War Department record.
After the 9Th Corps arrived. our regt-
ment charged. In line with the Vermont
brigade, and drove Early's forces back be-
returned to the defenses, and the 9th Corps
followed the retreating enemy. AS we re-
turned | saw a dead confederate soldie.
who wore a long breaStplate of Russian or
Swedish sheet-iron- There were two thick
nesses of iron, with a material resembling
asbestos between them. the whole covered
with canvas or saiicloth. A mimic ball had
penetrated the armor, or breastplate, over
the heart of the wearer, killing him in
stantly.
One of my men took the breastplate from
the dead body and presented 1t to Capt.
Robert Lacey of Gen. Daniel II. Ricker'S
staff. and we examined 1t carefully. 1t was
the only piece of mail or armor that L ever
heard of in the army. We all
agreed at the time that the man who wore
the breastplate was not confederate vet
eran, but recruit who had recently joined
the army or a resident of Washington who
had gone out with arms and armor to help
his friends under Early. The breastpiate
was of foreign manufacture. and might
have been carried to Richmond on block
ade runner.
No veteran soldier of that time In either
army would have worn a protector of any
kind That would have been unsoldierly
and inexcusabe. But a veteran could use
a tree or rock or stump or mound OF earth
as a protection and be commended for his
foresight and courage. The soldier most
sensitive on the question OF armor or
breastplates would jump behind a tree or
into a gopher hole and boast OF his act
Whereas the soldier suspected of wearing
chain shirt or protector of any kind was
to be particularly severe on a regular officer
he intimated that said officer wore a chain
shirt under his blouse coat"
Il remember" said the major. that IN
our command any eccentricity on the part
of man in protecting himself from the
enemy's bullets was eXcusable and COM
mendable. In the last year of the war our
men became experts in the construction of
what might be called individual forts A
picket sent to an exposed position fortified
the minute he was on post. The man who
relieved him improved the work of the
first. and the third man on duty extended
the work of the second. In this way the
army was given fortified front on the ini-
tiative of the pickets. l have known men
to go gladly to outpost picket duty that
they might give the finishing touches to
gopher hole or 'dugout begun by them
selves or comrades
