Reform Not Accepted.

From the San Francisco Chronicle
In connection with the attempt to inhu-
ence the style of reformed spelling e
might be interesting to make known tho
fact that Chinese in Crescent city tried
TO introduce a like reform in the etrly srt-
tiers. He manufactured peppermint III.
and in the window of his establishncnt
there appeared the following:
THE pepomint oil
for
He'd AXE
Bel axe

This oil any persum awt to have 4
botel in hiz pol<et. 1t will kure any kin
ov sikness whar it happen"
But it seems that the attempted reform
did not take with the people of Crescent
City.

'TWoULD MAKE A BETTER WORLD

Selected,
If all who hate would love us,
And all our loves were true;
The stars that swing above US,
Would brighten in the blue.
If cruel words were kisses
And every scOwl a smile.
' A better world than this is
Would hardly be worth while.
II purses would untighten,
To meet a brothers need,
The load we bear would tighten
Above the grave of greed.
II those who whine would whistle
And those who languish laugh
The rose would rout the thistle,
The grain outrun the chaif
II hearts We're always jolly,
If grieVing were forgot,
And tears and melancholy,
Were things that now are not,
Then love would kneel to Duty.
And all the world would seem
A bridal bower of beauty
A dream within a dream.

four decades ago,
rFIGURE. held q command
ing position In the
public view. and one whose work to save
the Union from dismemb mbermcnt won
him the plaudits OF all patriotic Ameri-
cans. The death OF Brigadier General
EDWARD wellman 5srrell recalls some
Of the most stirring and dramatic incl
dents OF one OF the most notable cam
paigns OF the Civil War. Early In
1851 Serrell entered the volunteer SER
NICE as lieutenant colonel OF tho First
New York regiment. At that time
he was IS years OF age and had taken
place among the civil engineers of the
country and OF the world. He was a
member OF the expedition that in iS4s
surveyed the route OF the Panama rail
road and he had charge of the con-
btruction OF the nrst suspension bridge
bver the Niagara river.
He also constructed the suspension
bridge at ST. Johns. NJ b., and In 1855
was In charge Of the work on the
Hoosac tunnel In 1ss3. because of his
large practical experience In construc-
tive work. Colonel Serrell was made
chief engineer OF the Tenth Army
Corps and later became chief engineer
and chief Of stan to General Benjamin
4. Butler When the expedition
against Charleston was organized
General Fillmore was placed I'm oom-
mand because OF his experience in en-
gineering and he placed Colonel Ser
rell In charge OF the siege work.
An unsuccessful attempt was made
by the navy TO capture Forts Sumter.

Charleston. when Fillmore moved his
troops to Folly island and from there
occupied the greater part OF Morris
island on which Fort Wagner was To-
Gated. After siege guns had been
placed In position an attempt was
made TO carry Fort Wagner by assault
but IL failed. In order 10 make sue
cess possible IL became necessary to
push the siege guns nearer Forts Wag-
ner, sumter and Charleston, but un-

the west side OF Morris island. that IL.
the side nearest Charleston and Fort
Sumter, was a marsh that extended for
n mile lnlans the entire length OF the
island. At low tide this marsh. or
swamp, was dry. but at high tide IL
was covered over its whole extent by
four feet OF water.
The problem that confronted the
Union commander was that OF placing
an effective battery In this swamp for
