BACK TO HIS sHIPMATE.
What Won a Sailor Back to His Coun-
try's Service.

When the frigate Cumberland went
down in Hampton Roads, rammed by
the Merrimac, says a writer in the
New York Sun, Jack Gardner, sailor,
mounted the main rigging, flag in
hand, and there waved degance to the
enemy. Although the ship grounded
with the masts out of water, and
Gardner was not drowned, his name
went round the world for the spec
tacular deed.
Some time later a steam-cruiser,
hunting the seas over for the confed-
crate Alabama, put in at ST. Helena
island for coal and water. While the
bunkers were being filled fisherman
came near in a small boat and threw
out his lines. He was dressed in a
ragged uniform of a United States
marine. A boat was lowered from the
cruiser and several seamen put out to
see the fisherman.
charge.
Hello YOURSELF" said the fisher
man, throwing out another line.
Were short of men. Don't you
want to come along?"
mo. This suits me-
your country needs you
tThis is my country right now"
Evidently the troubles of his native
land troubled him not at all. He was
supremacy comfortable and rested
easy. 1t seemed a hopeless task to
interest him in the service, until one
of the seamen spoke up.
"Gardner's with u.s. he said.
The fisherman became alert.
Jack Gardner of the Cumberland?'
he asked.
aye"
He's on there with you fellers?'
aye"
Call him up"
The sailor halloed for Gardner and
the hero came to the rail.
Ship ahoy, old Jack!" called the
fisherman.
Hello, Bill" returned tke man-of-
wars man.
They didn't get ye?"
Not to hurt
The fisherman turned to the sailors
in the rowboat.
Mates. the last time I saw old Jack
there he was up in the main rigging
going down, fiag-a-flying. Who'd "a
thought O seeing him again this side
his headstun? Come up clost so 1 can
jump in. I'm going aboard to stay"

tration of all his troops Mt Gettysburg.

planned was defeated.

galloping steed struck out of the

they little thought of the great results
to come from this strange riders

ments for the next meeting of the Ma
tional Editorial Association. He. Wis
tied the jamestown Exposition ground
end was greatly impressed with the
extent and character of the work being
done there Many of the buildings
are completed and 5000 workmen are
distributed over the grounds and srruc-
lures. He says: kansas should be
represented at the jamestown exposi
ton which opens April &c. The ordin-
airy results which come from having a
building and an exhibit of the re-
sources of the state should be a suf-
ficient reason, but in view of the Kan
sas Semi-Centennia1 in 1911 it is a
positive NECESSITY If we expect other
states to become interested in our ex-
position, we must show a spirit of re-
ciprocity. This is our first opportun-
ity. We should meet it half way and

PoMERoY's RIDE.
A Gallant Exploit by a Pennsylvania
Boy During the War.

In his graduation Grafton R. c. APP
pleby, the son of Comrade T. A Apple
by, of Mount Union, Pa, took for his
theme the gallant exploit of Stephen
w. Pomeroy at the time of Lees in
vasion of Pennsylvania. This was an
excellent choice for a subject, since
it is the best policy to keep the patri-
otto deeds of our brave men for emula-
ton by the young. Mr.. Appleby, after
speaking of the celebrated rides from
Paul Revere down, spoke of Lees in
vasion of Pennsylvania, and said:
Hooker was superseded by Meade,
who marched his army northward on
a line east of the Blue Ridge and COW
ering. both Washington and Baltimore,
thus separating his corps by long dis
tances- Lee, learning of this, decided
to march rapidly eastward from Cham
bersburg and strike Meade's army,
corps by corps, before it could concen-
trate for battle. This he came dan
gerously near doing, as on July 1 he
struck the first and eleventh corps of
Meade's army at Gettysburg, and, after
the bravest and bloodiest contest this
continent ever saw, drove our men off
the field. Next day the battle ragged
with frightful fury and small advan-
tage to either side, but with dreadful
loss to both. On the third day every
man of both armies was on the field,
and the battle was fought to a finish.
AS the close of the battle 5000 men
were dead upon the field and 10000
were wounded.
Lee was defeated. The high-water
mark of the confederacy was reached.
Thence after the rebellion was hope
less, the unioA was saved. The old
Flag though baptized in the best blood
of the land, had not lost single star.
But the greatest results turn on &C
lions unseen. When Lees battalions
came marching down from Carlisle
and the valley through Chambersburg
and filed rapidly out the Gettysburg
pike it convinced Judge Kimmell that
a collision between the two armies
would occur quickly, and that it was
exceedingly important that Meade
should know of the movement at once.
He prepared dispatch telling of
Lees plans, and asked for volunteer
to carry it through the confederate
lines to the line of the Pennsylvania
railroad, on the Juniata. boy from
Roxbury, just discharged from his
regiment, came forward and offered to
try. The Importance of it's getting to
meade was explained, ana ne started
Young and fleet, he ran the confed-
crate picket lines, and, skirting the
mountains, reached home after a trip
of II miles on foot. Meeting a neigh
Dor on horseback, he secured his horse
and rode on a rapid gallop to Beal-
town, in Juniata county, where, get
ting fresh horse, he galloped away
In the night to Academia, where he
again left his exhausted horse, and,
securing another, rode at great speed
to Port Royal, where his dispatch was
at once sent to Gov. Curtin, at Harris
burg, and by him to the war depart
ment, which in turn sent it to Meade;
so that when the sun rose on July 1
Meade knew that the battle would be-
gin that day, and ordered the concen-

He sowed the First Alfalfa.

Harrison Parkman, who introduced
alfalfa into Kansas, died at his home
at Emporia. He was IS years old. Mr..
Parkman first saw alfalfa growing in
Chile. He brought seed to America
and in the late 70s he came to Emporia
to live. He sowed alfalfa seed on a
farm which he bought and the plant
prospered. 1t was slow in gaining pop
