prepared to march to join Washing

stopped from lack of transportation
Crawford happened to spy a civilian
teamster who had stopped to rest and
water his horses. In such an emer-
gency the colonel felt no hesitancy in
pressing the team into his service.
The owner, however. was in no
humor to submit to what he consid-
cred an oppressive act. Things looked
bad for him, for he was alone and in
the midst of strong men, He remained
for a time silent and sullen; then he
observed that it was hard to be forced
into service against his will. He said
that the captain had taken advantage
OF circumstances, and that he would

But when the young man threw his

TOO MUCH FOR THE cHEF.
Indian Could Not Stand the Firing of
Mules at Him.

The Indian, solid as he looks, pos
sesses a sense of humor which some
times displays itself at unexpected
times. Rev. Egerton R. Young gives
an example of this in Stories from
Indian Wfgwams-" The tale was told
to the author by Gen. Custer himself
only a short time before Gen. Custer
was killed
Custer, following band of hostile
Indians, drove them up to a region
of mountains and ravines. At one
time he made an a1lnight march, and
in the morning came upon group of
unsuspecting red men The enemy
was taken completely off guard, and
without attempting to fight, fed, dis
appearing in the valley, and leaving
Custer with little hopes of capturing
any of them
The general was at the top of a
steep bluff, below which the Indians
had retreated. The company had
with them a small howitzer, carried
on the back of large mule. Custer
ordered that this gun should be load
ed while still on the animal, and fired
down the side of the bluff, where the
greatest number of the enemy had
disappeared. For some reason or
other the mule was dislodged by the
conclusion, lost its footing, and went
crashing down the bluff into the I'M
dergrowth far below.
Meanwhile, troops had descended
the other side of the bluff, and were
searching the woods beneath After
a time they came back with large
number of Indians and one chief,
known to be very warlike and cum
ming Custer expressed his surprise
to this chief, and asked him how he
came to be captured
General" said the red man, Il am
not afraid to fight men armed with
bows and arrows, or-with spears and
tomahawks; and 1 love the battle
with your soldiers armed with guns
You know 7 have not often been beat
en- / have heard the roar of big guns
and have not been afraid But, gen.
eral," here came bit of a twinkle in
his eye, when you fired a whole mule
at me. I said, Tt is time to surren-

DlsosEYeD ORDERS.
A TickIish Night on Picket at the
Fight at chic<amauea.

A correspondent of the National
Tribune, an old soldier who served in
the Twenty-second Indiana regiment,
company l, tells the story of how he
disobeyed orders while doing picket
duty at Chickamauga
The day of Sept 49, he says, was
spent pushing and pulling wagons up
the steep mountain getting every
thing to the top about eight p. M,
when we moved out about two miles
and went into camp on a small stream
Up to this time we did not know that
there was any fighting going on My
company was detailed for picket duty,
end a strong picket line was put out
around the camp. Col Post rode out
to our advance post and told my cap
tain, L. s. Mayfield, to select some
man whom he could trust and put
Kim out on videt duty, at least one
half mile in advance of our picket
line, and leave him there all night,
as the mountain was so infested with
rebel bushwhackers that it would be
unsafe to relieve tfem at night Capt
Mayfield called for volunteers, but the
boys were all tired and no one cray
ed the job of standing guard all night.
Finally he called me and asked if
he and Orderly Sergeant Miller would
go along and see where the post was
established, and that / would do my
best to hold the post till morning.
Col. Post gave me my orders before 1
started He said there was no coun-
tersign; that if any person approach

Perhaps the largest and most valua-
BILE of literary treasures the world has
lost was the Alexandrian library. This
collection, the most remarkable of the
ancient world, is said to have con-
tanned in its most dourishing period
400, 900 or, according to others, 700, 000
manuscripts. Its royal founder col
lected from all nations their choicest
composition. We are told that one OF
his successors went SO far as to re
fuse to supply the Athenians with
wheat until they had given him the
original manuscripts of Aeschylus
Sophocles and Euripides. When Julius
Caesar laid siege to the city the
greater portion of this library was
destroyed by fire. 1t was later re
placed by the collection presented tc
Queen Cleopatra by Marc Antony
But it was not destined to endure
long. When the Emperor Theodosius
the Great in 391 A. D. ordered the
destruction of all heather temples
within the Roman empire, the Chris
tians, led by the archbishop Theophil
US, did not spare that of Jupiter, IL
which were kept the literary treas
ures. From this general destruction
about 1000 manuscripts escaped. only
