VETERANS IN THE CITY.

Hiram I. Gorham. 4th VT. Comrade
Gorham was a Sergeant in Co. l. 4th
VT, and was taken prisoner at the raid
on the Weldon Railroad, June %, 1854.
On the way to Andersonville he and
his partner jumped the train and made
their way into the mountains of North
Carolina, where they were kept by
good Union people for about two weeks.
One of these benefactors was Deacon
Billy Cook, of Watauga County, n. c.
At the end of that time they were
picked up by a squad of censcriptors,
and brought back to Salisbury, and
subsequently sent to Andersonville.
where they remained until the prison
was emptied, April IS. 1865. He was
in the last squad that left Andersonville.
April 1G. This is interesting, as it fixes
the date of the abandonment of the
prison. He finally reached our lines at
Jacksonville. He has been a railroad
engineer ever since the war until re-
Gently, when he retired. For IA years
he was employed by the Chesapeake &;
Ohio Railroad. The last post office ad-
dress was Sulligent. Ala, but at pres

A BugIe Boy I'm Battle.

Dennis Blemis, Bugler. Co. X, 32d
Wis, Centralia, Kan, does not agree
with Comrade George w. Wheeler, 32d
Wis, as to the composition of the Third
Brigade at the time of the little brush
at the Salkehatchie or Rivers Bridge.
The brigade was composed of the 25th
Ind, 10th Ill. and 32d Wis, and was
commanded by Col. Tillson, who was
soon after promoted a Brigadier-G
eral. When deploying, the 32d Wis.
got up almost under the rebel earth
works, and he remembers how the
Drum Corpsers would skip from tree
to tree. Word came to them that
Capt. Eckels, of Co. e, 32d Wis, was
shot dead, and they were sent to find
the body. He was standing near a
large cypress tree when shot, and his
head was under water when they
reached him. Charley Bentley, Charley
Cross, Hy Holcomb and Comrade Bile
mis- carried him out on the stretcher,
sometimes being obliged to float the
body, it was SO heavy. In the Grand
Review at Washington the Drum Corps

Frances last war with Germany and
during the terrible siege, when every
one who possibly could left the city and
country, she, frail, nervous, pampered
woman, remained, organized hospital
and helped take care of sick and dying
soldiers. She induced the managers of
the Odeon Theater to let her have this
building for her purpose, and went
around personally begging food, beds,
etc, from the different authorities.

his offices in the Tuilleries Palace. where

the divine Sarah, for 1 want this old
Prefect to think me pretty; there are

ness of the masculine gender. The old
Prefect gave her everything she asked
for, even to his own handsome overcoat
which she saw hanging over a chair,
and begged for her wounded men when
they were convalescent. On account of
her large acquaintance among those in
power and of her influence as popular

Mrs. John Reyburn, wife of the
Mayor of Philadelphia, has had good
deal to say lately about the snobblsE-
ness of things generally in this country,
snd of the people of the Quaker CITY
particularly She complains that no
box for the opera is set aside for the
use of the Mayor, who expects to pay
for it, of course. and that on account
of social selection she has been unable
to secure one. She feels that as the
wife of the chief executive of a great
city she should be accorded greater con-
sideration and social recognition than
she has received from the great world
of Philadelphia, and she does not ike
it. Those connected with the opera in
that city say in defense that Mrs. Rey-
burn simply neglected to apply for a
box until all were sold, and that is all
there is to it Mrs. Reyburn has an
nounced her intention of doing all she
can while Mayoress to raise the social
standards of official life. She intends
to give everyone of brains chance. The
so-called Impossible woman, she SAYS,
will blossom into a gracious hostess and
social success if given the right oppor-
tunity Brains, charm and adaptability
go far ahead of family and wealth, she
thinks, which latter in a country like
ours are absurd pretensions to social
position, anyway. Mrs. Reyburn says
a great deal more along these lines
which will please some people and dis
please others. She seems to have ell
tered upon a serious crusade against
what she considers snobbishnesS, and
says if at the end of her husbands term
she has accomplished nothing in this
respect she will at least have started
others thinking.

hog, his tout ensemble, so to speak, ap-

not pretty to have around, we are told
that there is more money in them than
in any other domestic animal, and that
the farmer who devotes himself to the
raising of them makes big profit. They
are always to be relied upon, and
whether prices are high or low, are still
good property. 1t costs almost nothing
