RECORD FOR BRAVERY.
Part Gen. Thomas Francis Meagher
Played in the Great
Civil War.

"He never ordered an advance in
which he himself did not take the lead,"
is the testimony given by one of the Of
ficers who served under Gen. Thomas
Francis Meagher, in the famous Irish
brigade of the civil war And when the
advances of the Irish brigade are re-
called to mind, the heroic and the VAL
orous soldier who had fought and been
imprisoned for his native Ireland and
escaped from the prison of Van Die
mems land, found home and coun-
try in this free land of ours.
Thomas Francis Meagher had been
ordered to be executed for his partici-
patton in the rebellion against the Eng
lish government, which agitated Ire
land in 1S4S. His sentence having been
commuted to Punishment and impris-
onment on the Australian island, he
managed to escape, arriving in New
York in May 1852.
Save Lafayette alone, it is said that
no foreigner coming to our shores was
ever accorded such hearty, generous
and spontaneous welcome as was ac-
corded to this Irish patriot upon his ar
rival in the city of New York. Imme-
diately, Meagher became among the
Irish in America as he had been among
the Irish in Ireland-the leader of the
political and national movements.
At Williamsburg, at Fair Oaks, at
Malvern Hill, it was the Irish brigade
and Meagher who were ever to be found

of outdoor exercise than her lazy Amer
lean cousin, looks we'll to the costume
she is to wear when engaged in this win
ter sport.
There Is nothing more picturesque
than good woman skater. and careful
ly studied skating costume adds not In
considerably to the picture. The skirt,
Of course, should be short, practically
and jauntily so, and the shoes, prac-
tically, and If possible, jauntily stout
Materials and cut of skirt may be Sc
lected from much variety, but ever In
mind should be kept the use to which
the costume is to be devoted, the sur
roundings amidst which 1t is to be worn.
A vivid red, even scarlet, is good for
those that can wear anything so pro-
notinced, for here If ever bright hues can
be worn without offending. Rough ma
terial should be chosen if this gay color
Is decided upon. and the fur to give the
desirable touch, We think, would be a
white one. A hat of furry red beaver
would go we'll with this costume. In de-
fense of the gay skating frock. we call
TO attention the fact that fady pastel
tones are quite out of place for skating;
they are cold tones, and make the wearer
look frozen.
The French fancy for skating CO.'S
tune is q corduroy Of myrtle green
trimmed with tan suede; and this cer-
tainly Is a very chic creation. The
French model has plain gored skirt,
strapped with corduroy and ornamented
with buttons Of the tan suede. The
short coat has vest of the suede, and a
belt of this passes through plait in the
back of the coat. Reveres of suede fold
back, and can be made to close and fas-
ten at the desire of the wearer. The
shirtwaist may be of cream silk and
wool, or one of light shade OF tan
would be very pretty. A green tie, a
green beaver hat, soft and trimmed with
a bit OF bronze, make the finishing
touches to this suit.
An English leader OF fashion suggests
for the skating party a costume of white
or cream zibeline, but this is not practi-
cal for average needs: and then, too,
there are SO many colored goods that
fulfill requirements. If one prefer a
light costume, why not select gray
trimmed with chinchilla? This can be
made elaborate, II that is wanted, by
having the skirt OF cloth. the short
bolero or jacket of velvet with waist
coat of gray suede and shirt front and
stock of some cream fiuffiness.
What is known as fur plushes are worn
for skating costumes abroad, and
though an expensive material they are
durable and stand the wear and tear
that one that loves the sport is bound
to give her costume great deal of. Vel
yeteens make economical skating frocks,

Wrapped in his blanket the soldier sleeps

Lying in State in a casket embedded,
Strongly in glass, amid Eastern perfume,
shrouded in garments all thickly gold

Sleeps the old king in his rare marble

Mother Earth takes him at once to her

Warns him; the king in his marble sleeps

Wrapped in his blanket, the soldier

With face pale with emotion Mr..
Leigh turned to the girl:
alice, will you not give me the
same promise which was whispered
when the sunlight pierced the
shadows?'
Her face was hidden, but her form
shook with sobs. He knew that no
sympathetic emotion had thus affected
her, and his hope was poisoned by a
deadly fear, but his voice was as soft
as that of mother comforting a sor-
rowing child. as he said:
will you not trust me, dear and let
me help you In this trouble which |
do not understand"
THAT is beyond human power"

When the Sunlight
Pierced the Shadow

T HE graphophone had been placed
on the table, and the family had
gathered around to listen to the new
music which Mr.. Leigh had brought
for the entertainment of the girl sit
ting in the shadow of the curtains
For once he almost regretted his
popularity in the family, for while
his heart was one moment agitated by
hope and the next dulled by fear, he
was anxious to learn the fate which
awaited him. He had asked the hand
of the girl in marriage, and tonight he
was to learn his fate. For awhile the
family listened, then turned away. Mr..
Leigh said:
Wait a moment, Mrs. Hardy. Here
is one selection which am anxious for
you to hear. 1t is, to me, singularly
sweet song, and the saddest romance
is associated with it. l have friend
in Dallas who is dealer in graphic

of this song Its author was a bril-

by the young lady he loved, and after
ward lost He allowed my friend to
have several plates made, but 1t was
never published. This plate was given
to me-"
He screwed it upon the graphophone,
and prelude, soft, sweet, thrilling
beneath the touch of a master hand,
fioated through the room, and voice
beautiful and vibrant, sang the triumph
of accepted love when the Sunlight
Pierced the Shadows"
No one noticed the cry which burst
from the lips of the girl near the win
dow. All were in touch with the senti-
ment of the words and music.

Then came Fredericksburg Behind

on whose summit were the Washington

regiments in the confederate service,

Five times did the federals charge this

brigade numbered over one-twentieth
Of the total number OF dead on the field
of Fredericksburg the dead in that
space averaged 1000 to the acre.

THE NEW ARMY RIFLE.
Superior Weapon Which Has Been
Perfected by Ordnance
Experts.

1t Is a fact, although not generally
known, that the ordnance experts Of
the army, after months of hard work.
have succeeded in perfecting a Ave-
shot magazine rifle, which Is believed
to be superior to any in use in foreign
armies. Forty thousand of the new
rifles have already been completed,
but it is not proposed to begin their
distribution to the regular army until
100, o,OOO-sufficient to supply the regu-
lar establishment on a war footing
have been completed. This will prob
ably be about January 1. After the
regular army has been supplied with
the new rifle, the arm now in use will
be turned over to the various militia
organizations, some of which are still
equipped with the old-fashioned black
powder Springfield of .45 caliber
The new rifle is of 80 caliber, and
its most interesting feature is the COW
cred barrel the steel being protected
by wooden covering to within two
inches of the muzzle. This Is consid-
cred a great Improvement. During
the Spanish-American war and the
campaign in the Philippines, many
complaints against the rifle now in
use reached the war department. 1t
was found that If the present high
powdered arm was fired rapidly the
barrel became hot enough to take the
skin off a soldiers hands, and conse-
quently make cessation of firing nee
essary in order to permit the steel to
cool. There are many other improve
ments in the new arm-in fact, it may
be said that it has no two points in
common with the rifle now in use.-

some years had the one-color costume.
And to-day shadings of color seem to
be preferred to the costume matching

Rivalling the rage for intense green

shades. In choosing these the wearer
must be sure that she herself is not a
little passe, for the fady tints are apt to
add to fady look. When becoming
they give delicacy to costume, and are
especially appropriate for dress occa-
sions. One of the most exquisitely
