There will be an election in the Sum-
merton school district on the oath inst,
upon the question of Bonds or NO
Bonds for school building purposes.
We have been asked if all citizens can
vote in thai election. For the benefit
of those who are not informed, we will
state that none but qualified voters
those having registration certificates
can vote, and if there are any such,
will advise them to communicate with
the registration officers at once. These
officers are: G. T. Worsham, Seloc: w.
T. Kelly, Foreston, and E. D. Hodge,
Manning. We would also advise the
parties desiring bond issue to be very
careful to conduct the election strictly
in accordance with the law. and not
leave any technical loopholes. lest they
invalidate the bonds. and cause the
whole thing to be gone over again.

CAPTURED TWO GENERALS.
Story Of One of the Most Famous Elk.
ploits of the Civil War.

The reunion recently at Moorefeld,
w. Va, OF McNeill's rangers of the con-
federate army, recalls one of the most
famous exploits of the civil war,
wherein two generals of the United
States army were captured in one day
by daring dash of this celebrated
band. That the commander of this
organization, who participated in the
raid which captured Gen. Crook, the
famous Indian fighter, and Gen. Kelly
and took them both to Richmond, Va,
many. Capt. McNeill is an old and
well-known resident of Champaign
county, ILL.,. and will meet once more
the survivors of his band. He was re-
Gently prominent figure at a reunion
of the blue and the gray which was
held in Macon county, ILL.,, which was
attended by old soldiers of both Sides
Capt. McNeill is still a robust and
hale man despite his years. The ex-
ploit of which he was the central fig
ure would have occupied a prominent
place in history had it taken place at
an earlier period of the war, when 1t
would have made more marked i'm
preston on the public mind. Capt.
McNeill is mentioned in the memoirs
of Gen. Phil Sheridan. His father was
the captain Of the rangers when they
were originally mustered, and the son
was lieutenant. When the father
fell the son took his place and he ac-
quilted himself to the complete salts
faction of his superiors.
In his "reminiscences Gen. Sheridan
refers to the annoyances of these
rangers and how he put a check to
the operations of one band under Capt.
Gilmore by capturing the commander.

Aneedote of Robert r. Hit.

The late Robert r. Hit had knowl
edge of stenography which was of
great value to him in debate. He has
been known to rise with his hand full
of shorthand notes of a speech just
delivered to which he was about to
reply and woe to the man who ac-
cused Mr.. Hit of misquoting him. He
was the patron saint of the stenog-
raphers of the house. Not long ago
political influence was about to dis
place from the line of promotion a
young expert writer of shorthand from
Michigan whose work Mr.. Hit had
occasion to admire. Mr.. Hit went to
Speaker Cannon. This will never do,
Joe" said the shorthand authority of
the house. I'VE can't do without this
man. The house must have him." All
right, Hitt," replied Speaker Cannon.
IF anybody knows the sort of stenog-
yaphers this house ought to have you
are the man." That settled it and the
Michigan stenographer held his place.

The feat was an ingenious one. Twen-
ty union soldiers disguised as confed-
crates were apparently fleeing from a
squadron Of 300 union cavalry and
came upon Gilmore, surprising him
and effecting his capture. the cavalry
supporting the return to the federal
lines. To play even, young Jesse Nc
Neill, with his band, made a dash
upon Cumberland and captured Gen.
Crook and Kelly, both prominent COM
manders in the Army of the Cumber-
land. At that time Cumberland, Nd,
was SO completely invested by the
federal troops that a man was presum-
ably as safe as in his home in the
north.
The surprise upon the two generals
was SO unexpected and so complete
that the captors, with their prisoners,
were far away before the negro watch
man could recover from his fright and
give the alarm. The confederates
were given hot chase far down into
West Virginia, but got away. Gen.
Crook was the same man who in later
years became famous as an Indian
fighter. At the moment of his capture
he doubtless felt greatly chagrined,
but in all probability he was thankful
for 1t in later years, for that incident
brought him more happiness than any
thing that came to him during the war.
After ride of 20 miles a stop was
made to change horses. At a hotel
kept by the father of one of the rang
ers Gen. Crook met the innkeeper's
daughter. 1t was a case of love at
first sight, and few months later,
when the war closed. Gen. Crook re-
newed his acquaintance and later
made her his wife. She still lives.
but he has been mustered out.
Although 1t was of no special mill.
tary Importance. this was the last and
most brilliant exploit of the rangers.
1t is an almost forgotten event, for
the eyes and the interest of the people
of the north and of the south were
anxiously centered at the time upon
the death struggle of the confederacy,
then taking place at Petersburg. and
they had eyes and ears for nothing
else. Lee, at the head of the ragged
remnants Of his once inyincible army,
was making his last stand, and his
gallant and devoted veterans, the vic
tors of SO many desperate conflicts,
were soon TO succumb to the irresist-
ible logic Of superior physical force,
exeInplified in the overpowering le-
gions OF Grant. The principle of at

AT THE SUMMER HOTEL.
Experience of Winston Churchill Fa.
miliar to Many.

Winston Churchill in an address
that he made in Concord recently
praised the New Hampshire farmer.
Ours" he said, "is a state fitted
above all others for a summer resort
New Hampshire, with its superb cli-
mate, its mountains, it's lakes and
forests, will in a generation or two
park, dotted with beautiful villas, to
which will come each summer fam
lilies from all parts of America.
I'm anticipation of this many farm
ers ere learning to conduct hotels.
They are building cottages for sum-
mer visitors. Some of them, too, are
taking boarders.
And l am glad to say that the New
Hampshire farmer is in a position to
take boarders, because, unlike the
farmers in other states that l could
name, he does not send all his good
things to the city. I once boarded at
a fine big farm, but the fare was
wretched-canned vegetables, con-
densed milk and so on.
by Jove,' I said one morning at
breakfast, as l pushed my egg cup
from me, these eggs are really not
as fresh as those I get in New York.
My farmer host snorted.
That's rank prejudice on your
part, Mr.. Churchill he said. It's
from New York that all our eggs
come"
