Evolution of the Bayonct.

The sweynes-feathcr (hog's bristlc).
which seems to have been the original
prototype of the bayonet, was long
rapier blade, fixed in handle and car
ried in a sheath, which was given to
musketeer for defense after he had dis
charged his piece. Stick by its handle
In the muZZle Of his gun, it constituted
very efficient weapon for acting
against pikcmen. TO diminish his in.
cumbrance The sweynes-feather and
musket rest were combined, the latter
forming a sheath for the former, in the
reign of James /.
Toward the latter part of the civil war
the use of the musket rest was aban-
doned, and 1t became the practice to
stick the dagger by its handle into the
muzzle Of the piece after discharging 1t.
In 1850 two rings were added by
which the bayonet was placed on the
muzzle without interfering with the
firing. This improvement, the inven.
ton of General Mackay, an English
officer, was introduced into the French
army by Vauban in 1903. BY the Eng.
Iish themselves it was not adopted un-
til after the battle of FOntenoy Q745),
where the advantages its use conferred
on the French were only too painfully
manifest, the Duke of Cumberland's
army being defeated with the loss OF

In the Shade Of the Old Apple Tree
DEAR EDITOR INTELLIGENCER

DEAR EDITOR INTELLIGENCER
Will you please publish by especial re-
quest, in your valuable journal, the fol.
lowing beautiful song? And now, with
little alteration, the words could be
made appropriate for recital or song, and
rendered at the dedication of the newly
constructed p. o. S. of A. Riverside Hall,
which will be the event of our neighbors
in the course of several weeks. Ground
was broken for the patriots place OF
meeting, two years ago, meath the shade
of an old apple tree.-OCCAsIoNAL.
The oriole with joy was sweetly singing;
The little brook was babbling its tune;
The village bells at noon were gaily ringing;
The world seemed brighter than harvest
moon: [you,
For there within my arms gently pressed
And blushing red you slowly turned away:
can't forget the way once caressed you
| only pray Wen meet another day.
CHORUS:
In the Shade of the Old Apple Tree,
Where the love in your eyes could see;
When the voice that heard,
Like the song OF the bird,
Seemed to whisper sweet music to me.
could hear the dull buzz of the bee
In the blossoms, as you said to me,
With heart that is true,
"Pll be waiting for you,
In the Shade of the Old Apple Tree"
I've really come long way from the city,
And tho my heart is breaking I'll be brave:
I've brought this bunch of fiowers-I think
there pretty
To place upon freshly moulded grave.
1fyou will show me, father, where she's ly ing
Or If it's far, just point it out to me
Said he: "She told me when she was dying,
To bury her beneath the apple tree"
