Ladue spurs to carry it. Out of the
way, gentlemen gunners! It's onr
time now, goes the word from Starke's
eager ranks, and so on down the long
line. Into their saddles leap the field,
staff and commanders. The sun has
gone down; the dusk is at hand; the
night must not come until that stub
born brigade has been swept from the
earth. Who shall do it, EWell or Talia-
ferro?
From the westward now, from the
far right flank, daring battery whips
out on the field and unlimbers where
its guns can enfilade Gibbons tri-
umphant boomers, and young Talia-
ferro's little brigade, till now held in
rear, goes striding of behind its fell
lows, and so on to the extreme right
as though in support And still it is
a battle of guns and gunners, for Jack
son holds his hounds in leash, down
charged at heel, crouched at the edge
of the woods.
And then comes the surprise of the
day, the event of the hour, the marvel
of the campaign. Even as Ewel1 and
Taliaferro are deciding that the mo-
ment has come for attack, 10! to the
amaze of the men of the Stonewall
brigade, still the extreme right of the
line, there is CLINT of steel in the op-
posite grove and a<dark column bursts
from the depths of the wood. Nimbly
a swarm of skirmishers leap from their
covert and come dancing out over the
sward. Straight for the guns drives
the daring blue line, backed by eight
solid companies, closed on the colors
and marching abreast. Fancy the can
airy defying the cat! Fancy the ter
rier boarding the tiger! Fancy the
lamb aSsailing the butcher, and you
have the sensation that thrills the wait
ing divisions as grizzled Georgia
colonel slaps down his field-glass and
turns to his men with delight in his
eye and five words on his tongue: 1.-The

OF the blue brigades, this solitary bat
talon in the feath cred black hats and
the wake of its skirmiShers, is jauntlly
proceeding to show its comrades back
on the pike how Bull Run veterans

two groves, halted in the road and
watching the scene are DOubleday'S
three battalions, all three not as strong
as fair-sized regiment. Gibbon, chief
of the second brigade, has led the Black
Hats through the wood, then, hating
at the edge has bid them go in, their
swathy little colonel waving his hand
in glad acceptance of the truSt-the
last salute of his soldier life. Almost
all of the blue division can be seen from
the north by the men of the south;
almost nothing Of the gray division
can be seen from the south by the men
of the north. Gazing through their
binoculars, the union commander and
staff note not a sign of the foe, save
these venturesome batteries, the one
here directly to the north, the others
slowly trotting of TO the northeast
beyond the range of Gibbons guns.
Yet there are a few mounted officers

Worst May BE Over.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 23.-The feel
ing is growing that the worst is over,
unless the workers on Basil Island,
who broke into the vodka shops
shortly before Q, are able to get to-
gether in force and carry either the
Nicholas or Palace bridges
Troops continue to patrol the prin-
cipal thoroughfares about the winter
palace, where many shops are open.
The soldiers are instructed to act on
the defensive unless rioting is re-
newed. There are reports of a few
conflicts in the suburbs, but no cas-
ualties.
At noon a large crowd of strikers
began gathering in Novsky Prospeck
from the suburbs but no disturbance
is yet reported. All traces of yes
terday's conflict are largely removed.
The authorities are not permitting
news of yesterdays conflict to reach
the internal points of Russia.

st. Petersburg. Jan. 23.-The ad-
imiralty works at Sevastopol are on
fire. burning furiously. The govern
ment has decided on the most strin-
gent measures to check the populace
today. All schools in the city are
closed. In many places the water
supply has been cut. At 10 this
morning the center of the city re-
mains quiet, but there is ferment in
the outlying districts.
Late yesterday evening the police
made house to hpuse visits warning
the househQlders 10 keep quiet.
That riot may break loose at aaS
moment is a foregone conclusion. It
is learned this morning that band
of rioters. the strength of which is
not known, has decided to divide
themselves into bands and sack the
city.
The capital is full of the widest
rumors. one says the strikers have
resolved to march 10000 strong on
Sarkoe Selo. If they find the czar is
not there they viii continue to
Petersoff. Another lis that the nihil-
lists have persuaded the strike lead
ers to take over a large supply of
bombs and use them to repel troops.

WALLOWA WOOL
ALL CONTRACTED
TOTAL. CLIP WILL REACH
ABOUT 1900, 200 POUNDS.
All This Has Been Contracted in !Ad-
vance by Koshland for 16 Cents
Wallowa County Is Isolated From
the Markets and When Few of
the Big Sheepmen Sold the Others
Mere Stampeded - Hay Selling
There for $3.50 and 81 Per Ton

J. Haas, of Enterprise, who is in
the city for a few days, says that
nearly every pound of wool in Wal
Iowa county has been contracted in
advance by the Koshland company
for 16 cents per pound.
There are over 100000 head of
sheep in the county which he esti-
mates will shear from s to Sz
pounds of wool each, making a total
of 1900. 900 pounds to be brought out
of that county.
Mr.. Haas gives as the reasons for
the advance contracting by Wallowa
woolmen, that the country is isolated
from the railroads and market CEN
ters, and that if half of the wool
growers sell in advance the remainder
of the clip would not be sufficient in
ducement for buyers to go into the
valley next spring. Therefore, when
four or five of the heaviest producers
sold in advance the other sheepmen
took advantage of the good prices Of
fered to get rid of their crop. It
gives them six months more use OF
the wool money. which they would
not have enjoyed had they waited
until next spring.
Wallowa sheep are in excellent
condition this winter. little hay hav-
ing been fed yet. Hay is worth from
$3.50 to 81 per ton. Many of the
sheepmen own ranges down on Snake
river where their sheep are run dur
ing the winter without feed
The greatest need of the Wallowa
now, Mr.. Haas declares. is a railroad,
and the people are determined TO
have one, IL they have to offer spec
ial inducements. The products OF the
county would be doubled with trans
portation facilities.

Washington. Jan. Ex-senator
Smoot resumed his testimony this
morning. Questioned regarding the
apostacy of Apostle Moses Thatcher,
the witness said he knew that Thatch-
er had had trouble with the quorum
of the twelve. He said that Thatcher
held that the church rule forbiding
Mormons to participate in politics
without permission applied to all
ranks until his trial, when 1t was in
terpreted as applying only to high
and paid officials The witness
agreed to this.
The witness said God eommuni-

the apostles or other parties.
Adheres to Oath OF Secrecy.
The witness declined to describe
the endowment ceremony on the
ground he had made a vow, now an
OATH with his God, to keep the cere-
monies sacred. He said the oath of
secrecy is a purely religious ordi-
nance.
Replying to questions, he said the
church received about $1,000,0O0 per
year in tithes. OF this $4,000 is
spent for educational purposes, $780,
600 feeding the poor, and large sums
for missions. The church had some
money invested In commercial insti-
tutions, but only small per cent of
their capital.
