A LITTLE TRIP.

Mir Editor: 1 wish through the col
 umns of your paper to mention a little
 trip that was very much enjoyed by my wife and myself through the kindness of Mir and Mrs s. E. Vincent of Bridgeport, who gave us most de- lightful automobile ride not around the world but through a beautiful portion of it. Starting from our home on Sunday we went to Danbury, from there through Mill Plain to White Plains. New York, riding over 40 miles If state road called the Briarcliffe race track. which is kept oiled and not a particle of dust arises. While gliding over these roads in 35-horse power touring car we thought of the Sherman road with their mountain-like dykes that throws one from the seat and while suspended in the air you are wonder ing where you are going to light. But I must not say more now of the Sher- man roads. After leaving White Plains we went by the way of Norwalk and Stamford to Bridgeport, making a ride of over 100 miles. We spent Monday with Mir and Mrs Vincent at theil home in Bridgeport. In the afternoon we were given another ride througl

the city, around Seaside Park and over to Beardsley Park, which to my mind is the most beautiful part of Bridge port. After breakfast Tuesday morn ing we were made aware that still more pleasure was awaiting us. MT and Mrs Vincent had it planned to take us over to Savin Rockfor shore dinner which was most happily accepted. As for me now to mention what the dln- ner consisted of would be impossible, but will mention few of the good things. clans, bluefsh, lobster, steak, crabs, fried potatoes, Saratoga chips, creamed potatoes, ginger pop, onions, puffs. After this light repast we thought we were good for the rest of the day so we went on to New Haven, saw all the places of interest, rode through all the beautiful streets and returned to Bridgeport in time to go to the theater and see the play called "The Dairy Farm" On Wednesday Mir Vincent and 1 made trip to New York. The pleasure of this day was the desire of my heart. We visit ed the Navy Yard and went aboard the battleship "New Hampshire" and was shown by a messenger all the different parts of the ship, returning in the early evening. On Thursday with hearts full of gratitude to our host and hostess for making it possible for us to enjoy so much, we took the $50 train for Merwinsville then over land to our home, where we shall have some pleas ure in sailing on the water of Spring Lake.

W. H. D0UGAL,
Of New Preston, Newly Appointed Judge Advocate of the Connecti-
 cut G. AIR.

William H. Dougal. who was chosen Department Judge Advocate by Com mander Edward Griswold, Department of Conn.,, G. A. R. is Past Com mander of Post l4, G. A. R., New Mill ford, is of Scotch descent, and was born in Naugatuck, April 23, lS44. He attended the district and high schools of that place and Ames college, Syra- cuse, New York. He enlisted in Com pany E, Waterbury company, of the Sixth in August, 1861, under Captain Edward P. Hudson, Colonel John L.
 Chatfeld of Waterbury being its col onel. MT Dougal went through the va rious experiences of his companyi and
 regiment at Port Royal and islands ab-
 jacent to Charleston, s. C., being ire
 quently commended by his superiors for his markmanship and coolness un- der fire, especially in the capture of the batteries on the outer end of Mor- ris Island, 2. C., on the morning of July 10, 1863. In the memorable as- sault upon Fort Wagner in the evening of the 18th of July, 1863, he was shot while defending the colors and en- couraging others inE that terrible bat tie. It was in this battle that the brave Colonel Shaw of the 54h Massa- chusetts, colored regiment, which was supporting the 9th c. V. to the left, was killed, and after the battle was buried in the moat by the confederates under the bodies of 25 of his brave boys, more glorious burial than which he would never have chosen. General Strong and Colonel Chatfeld were mor- tally wounded in this battle. The Sixth felt the loss of their colonel, than who no braver. more patriotic. self-sacrific- ing officer or soldier ever gave his life for his country or suffered in its cause each true heart that followed his lead on that field of carnage would have gladly ceased to beat that he might live, so great was their love for him. It was nearly a month after the battle that Mir Dougal's right arm was ampu- tated as a result of the severe wound. He immediately set himself to master penmanship, bookkeeping. also tele- graphy, and with such good success by
 close application that within year from the time of his discharge from the service in November, 1863, he re- entered the service as a United States military telegraph operator and con- structor near Nashville, Tenn. and be- fore the close of the war was in charge of military line leading out into Rob- inson county, guerilla infested dis trict. Little has ever been known concerning this branch of the service from 1861 to 1865 and we think the fol- lowing letters will be interesting tc very many for several reasons.

FACTS FOR SICK WOMEN
Washington
A FORTUNATE BOY,

The luckiest boy in Rochester-and the happiest-didn't sleep much last night. He was up at 5 o'clock he said. And if you had suddenly picked up $100, and you were but l2 years old, perhaps you would not have any time for sleep, for that sum represents great purchasing possibility to youth ful mind. The boy is Clair Saunders, of 31 Frank street. The money was the $100 prize offered by the Ontario Beach Park Amusement Company to the person who presented printed slip to the mysterious bearer, who was ad- vertised to walk up and down Main street, between North street and the Four Corners, beginning at 8 o'clock last night. At that hour it seemed as though the street was alive with boys of all ages, bearing packs of the cards which they distributed freely to every one they met. Clair Saunders was one of the boys. The money was carried in an envelope sealed by B. L. Peer, director of publicity of the amusement company, and was placed in the hands of F. R. De Foy, an artist, whose studio IS at r Main street East. MT Peer was the only person who knew who had the S10O and he placed it in MT DeFoy's hands because of their per sonal friendship and his knowledge of the latter's integrity and impartiality. Early in the evening MT Peer intro duced MT DeFoy to Mir Moran, of the advel Using staff of the company, tell ing Mir Moran that MT DeFoy was a guest of the company and asking him to entertain him for the evening. MT Moran, entirely unconscious of MT De- Foy being the possessor of the SlO0, started out to show the latter the city. They had passed up and down Main street several times until finally, ar irving near the Arcade, they stopped to look into store window. AS they did so small boy rushed up to MT DeFoy and handed him one of the cards. MT DeFov grabbed him by the arm and held him. MT Moran, think ing MT DeFoy was offen jed at the boy accosting him, started to smooth mat ters over when DeFOy exclaimed {: Why, he's the boy that's won the $1OO." Mir Moran was dazed. A crowd quickly collected and MT Peer was tel ephoned for. The party then went to the nearest newspaper office, where the boy gave his name and address. Mir DeFoy suggested that, in view ot the age of the lad, the money be turned over to his mother. Mir Peer immediately sent carriage to 1t Frank street and Mrs William Saun- ders, mother of the boy. was driven tc the office and given the money. She was greatly surprised at her sons good fortune. When Clair was asked what he intended to do with the money. he said: "pm going to buy new suit of clothes for myself anC for papa and mama and then, if there is any left, Pm going to put it in the bank. But 1 was scared when that man grabbed me. 1 thought he was z going to arrest me, and wanted, tc run." As the prize money has beer captured, the Ontario Beach Park Company will place another package containing slO0 in the hands of some unknown person, who will be on tht grounds on Ontario Beach Park to-mor row, the opening day.
