Stuart'S Last Battle.

US at every turn.
eve had been marching and fight
ing pretty steadily for more than two
weeks, with little rest. We left Han
over Junction about one o'clock one
night and reached Yellow Tavern be-
fore ten O'Clock the next morning.
We hadn't more than halted at the
tavern when up came Sheridan to
drive us out.
ut was tou6h struggle, a hand
to.hand fight, and we fell back from
the tavern, but held our position on
the telegraph road leading to Rich
mond. l was with the battery on the
extreme left wing, and it was about
two o'clock in the afternoon when Or
ders came for the whole division, ex-
cepting the First Virginia, to dismount,
but hold our positions.
ut seemed good, after 80 many
hours in the saddle, to stretch out on
the ground aud take smoke. There
was just one pipeful among that whole
battery, and the boy who owned it
passed it down the line, and each man
took his turn putting at it.
ut wasn't long before some fellow
wished for drink of water. You
know how it is, when one man wishes
for water the whole company begins to
die OF thirst so Jack Saunders and l
took bunch of canteens and started
over the hill to spring he had seen
that morning during our scrimmage
with the Yanks.
~ was on my hands and knees over
the spring when heard Saunders
grunt of surprise. He was staring
through the trees.
"There only few yards away was
considerable body of cavalry. Max
ing sure that it was our right wing, l
wondered to see them mounted and IN
ranks. Just then the voice of an Off.
Ger rang out:
Cavalry Attention Draw ga
Der /
"The entire line moved forward at
quick walk, and as the officer wheel
ed his horse, l saw his face. 1t was
Custer
"The situation came to Saunders
and me like fash. We threw down
the canteens and started back to the
battery on a dead run.
"'Trotr Clusters voice rang out
again. The next instant he shouted,
Charge
"With wild cheers, his cavalry dash
ed forward in a sweeping gallop, at
tacking our entire left wing at the
same time. We saw our battery tax.
en-, our line broken, and our men run
ming like sheep.
Saunders and l had but one
thought, to join our fleeing company
As we reached the telegraph road,
above the din of battle / heard Jeb
Stuart's voice. There he was, max.
ing a stand with a handful of men
around him. Thank God, l had sense
enough left to join them
"It seemed but moment before
Custer's troops were coming back as
fast as they had gone forward. They
had met the First Virginia. We
greeted them with the rebel yell and
our last round.
"Jeb Stuart cheered us on, sh, how
he cheered us gave them my last
shot, and was following with my weap.
on clubbed, when I saw a man, who
had been dismounted and was running
out, turn as be passed our rally and
fire his pistol.
"Jeb Stuart swayed in his saddle,
1t was only for moment, then hi
voice rang out, cheering his struggling
troops.
"The enemJ rallied just across th'
road, and fired a volley into the littl
band gathered around Jeb Stuart
His horse sprang forward with
scream of agony, and sank down or
its knees. As we lifted the genera

the Democratic opposition ended,
as it usually does, in talk.
Senator Aldrich, than whom a
cleverer politician has yet to be
born, expects to secure a unani-
mously favorable report on his
bill. He will accept some incon-
sequential amendment from Bal

Difference to the erudite mind of
the Senator from Taxas, he will
cajole Teller, jolly Hale and
smooth everybody down and get
his own way in the end, on all

Speaker Cannon with him. Mr..
Cannon is very sensitive about
the standing of the Senate, hates
all references to "the upper
house of Congress-" etc., and a
little judicious Difference to his
ideas, together with a few COM

his vast interests as a banker,

a quarter of a century we feel
like retiring from active work as
a physician, but must say we
want to vote for c. w. Fairbanks
for president before we leave. If
it should be Taft all right.
Do you notice what a splurge
Congressman Adair from the 9Th
Indiana district is making? Gee
whiz! he is a hummer. He stuck
bill in the hopper to equalize
the widows pensions, then an
other to take the tariff off all
lumber. He never cheeps about
16 to l or reduce the surplus. He
wants to outdo De Almond, and
John Sharp Williams, but next
fall we hope to give him a solar
plexus blow, as the IG. O. P. in
Indiana is a unit now. The bray
ing of the Bryan donkey is a
thing of the past. Senator Haw-
kins of this city is a candidate
for Adair's toga. If he is the
choice he will be strong man to
put up against Adair.
Health is good, except mild
cases of grippe. Yet we have the
white plague with US, and we
notice the gentler sex still wear
trailing skirts, while the splitting
ordinance is not enforced as it
should be. Ladies, do you not
see the filth you rake up with
trailing skirts? You who wear
them sweep the streets of tuber-
cular microbes, go home, beat
the dust out of your dress, use
the broom and inhale the poison
GUS dust laden with the deadly
disease. If you persist in so do
ing how can tuberculosis be ov-
ercome? We might write pages
on the subject and would do so
if our words would save but one
person from the dread disease.
