Paying His Debt.

The pleaSantest of Civil War stor-
les are likely to be those with a Sc
quel. OF that class is one beginning
in 1854, when. says Our Dumb Ami
mails, several wounded soldiers, I'm
ion and Confederate, lay in a farm
house in the Shenandoah Valley. Mrs.
Blank, the mother of one of the South
erners, rode ten miles every day to see
her boy and bring such little COM
forts as she could-small indeed, for
her house had been burned and her
plantation was in ruins, tramplee
down by the Northern army
One day she carried some beef tea.
Every drop was precious, for it was
with great difficulty that she had OBJ
tanned the meat from which it was
made
AS she sat watching her boy sip the
steaming, savory broth, her eye caught
the eager, hungry look of a man OH the
next cot. He was a Yankee. perhaps
one of the very band that had burned
her home. She was an ardent seces-
sionist, but she was also noble
hearted Christian woman. Her eve
stole back to the pale, sunken face,
and she recalled the words of st.
Paul, IF thine enemy thirst, give him
drink"
After a moments pause, to gain
command Of herself, she filled bowl
with broth and put it to the Northern
soldiers lips. Then she brought fresh
water and bathed his face and hands
as tenderly as if he, too, had been her
son. That was her last opportunity,
for it was their only meeting. Next
day, when she returned, he was gone.
He had been exchanged to the North.
Last winter the son Of a Senator
from the Northern state brought home
with him, during the Christmas vaca-
ton, young man from Virginia. He
was the only living son of Mrs. Blank.
The boy whom she had nursed was
killed in one of the last battles of the
war. She had struggled for years to
educate this younger son as a civil
engineer, and had done it. J
The Senator inquired into his qualifi-
cations, found them good, and soon
after secured the young mans ap-
pointment on the staff of engineers
employed to construct an important
railway. With the notice of appoint
ment the Senator enclosed a letter to
Mrs. Blank, reminding her of the
farmhouse on the Shenandoah.

Every old lawyer in the first and
second circuits of Missouri was well
acquainted with H. Clay Dean, the
wonderfully vitriolic lawyer-statesman
of Putnam County" remarked John d.
Smoot, an attorney of Memphis, Mo.
Dean was an untamed rebel and he
lay awake nights coming sentences to
convey his honest opinion Of the fell

received his special and earnest atten-
ton. OF one bluecoated captain he
said:
ut would require a marvellous
stretch of executive clemency on the
part of the devil to tolerate him for
the thousandth part of a second in

"Of another he thought the proper
punishment would be to load him

him through briar bushes into hell fur

Dean was intensely specific in his
castigations. He gave names, places

Besides being a master of vituper-

would make the angels weep. His
voice was well modulated, and when
he wanted to thrill he knew how to
play the chords as did no other plat

GIVES TRUST A HARD BLOW.
Court Rules that Railways Cannot
Mine and Sell Coal.


Common carriers cannot lawfully
deal in the commodities which they
transport, according to a decision of
the Supreme Court of the United States
handed down by Mr.. Justice White.
The decision hits at the foundations
of the monopoly of the great coal car
rying railroads which, through their
ownership and operation of coal mines,
are able to undersell their competitors,
thereby giving what amounts to dis
elimination in freight rates. Thus,
while nominally they charge the pub
lished rate for transporting coal. they
can sell it at a price which would
mean an actual loss to the mines if
the full freight charges were paid.
Not only does the decision affect the
coal monopoly, but it may have far
reaching effect on the beef combine in
its capacity of proprietor Of refrigerat-
ing car lines. Cases are pending in
court now in which the government is
endeavoring to have private car lines
declared common carriers, and in case
the suit is successful packers either
will have to give up their car lines or
abandon their trade in the beef, pro
duce, poultry and fruit which they
transport. The decision also will APP
ply to the great breweries which own
their own refrigerator cars, as we'll as
to several other lines of business.
Mr.. Justice White, in his decision,
said that to permit the carrier to be-
come a dealer in the commodities car
ried By it would be to supply the means
for perpetuating an evil which the in
terstate commerce commission was ere
ated to remedy, and would make the
adherence to published rates only a
farce.
The case in question originally was a
dispute between the Chesapeake and
Ohio Railroad Company and the New
York, New Haven and Hartford Rail
road Company. The former agreed to
supply the latter with 100000 Cons of
soft coal between July l, 1887, and
July /, 1902, but because of a strike
fell short 10000 tons in making the
deliveries. The buyer went into the
open maket, bought the coal and sent
the bill to the Chesapeake and Ohio.
This the road refused to pay, but deliv-
cred the coal called for by the contract,
though the price of fuel had gone up
to such an extent that the road lost
heavily by doing so.
The fight over matter of little
over 100000 in the lower courts at
tracted the attention of the interstate
commerce commission, which became a
party to the litigation, taking the posi-
ton that the action Of the Chesapeake
and Ohio in delivering coal at far below
the market price was, in fact, a cutting
of freight rates and an evasion of the
law prohibiting the transportation of
freight at less than the published SEIZED
ule and asking an injunction to stop
the road from dealing in coal.

BIackherrYing

While lying in the rife pits, one day
before Port Hudson, says writer in
the Vidette, l witnessed. the coolest
performance 1 ever saw during the
war. Just across the road from where
l lay, behind a cotton bale, was a reg
ular jungle of blackberrieS, and they
were nice ones, so every nice as to
tempt the appetite of a soldier so that
he was bound to have some of them
at all events. SO out he went for the
berries; but not long was he permitted
to eat undisturbed, for he was quickly
spied by a rebel rifeman inside of the
works, about five hundred yards away,
who soon sent his compliments to Mr..
Berrypicker in the shape of ball
from his rifle. Nothing haunted, how
ever, at such trifle as that, the fell
low kept on eating berries, in the
meantime keeping a close watch on
the breastworks; and every time he
would see a puff of smoke he would
move so that by the time the ball ar
rived where he was he was not there.
To show how good the rebel was with
a rife, the last shot he made at the
berrypicker will suffi re. After eating
all the berries he cared to, the SOL
der started across the road; and there
the rebel had clear sweep at him,
and just as he got to the middle Of
the road fired; the soldier stopped, and
suddenly stepped back one step, and I
saw the dust fly right in front of his
foot, Sc if he had stood still instead
of stepping back the ball would have
struck right between his feet.

WHOLESALE MURDER PLOTS.
Idaho Suspect COnfesses to Bloody
Conspiracy.


Conspiracy.
1t transpires that the purpose of the
Idaho and Colorado authorities is to try
to fasten upon Charles H. Meyer, presi-
dent, and William ID. Haywood, secre-
tary, of the Western Federation of Min
ers, who were taken to Boise, response
bility for wholesale plots to murder
through a confession said to have been
made by Harry Orchard, a prisoner at
Boise charged with the murder of former
Governor Steunenberg.
Orchard charged, it is asserted, that a
plot was Matched to kill former Gov
James Peabody of Colorado William H.
Gabbert, chief justice Of the Colorado
Supreme Court, and John Campbell, for
mer chief justice. Orchard is said to
have declared that wholesale assassina-
tions were planned at the headquarters of
the Western Federation of Miners in
Denver, chiefly by refugees from the
camps at Cripple Greek and Telluride
1t is said also that Orchards statement
gives history of the explosion at the
Independence station near Cripple Creek
on June 6, 1904, which killed fourteen
men and injured many others.
The murders committed during the la
Dor troubles in the Cripple Greek and
Telluride districts in Idaho and Colorado,
which have been shrouded in mystery, the
earlier Occur d'Alene murders and the
more recent Steunenberg assassination,
form chain of crimes with which efforts
are being made to connect the officers of
the Western Federation
