his untimely death in the very midst
of the war that it came TO be printed
without quotation marks.
Stonewall Jackson always stood like
stone wall for whatever he believed
TO be right. A native Virginian, be be
lieved that Virginia and the south had
the highest warrant for seeding from
the Union. Jackson believed that Sc
cession under the circumstances at
tending the struggle was ordained OF
God. To him the Confederate cause
was always sacred cause, and to him
the war was religious war. He was
modern crusader. Not only his bead
and heart, but his soul was 10 the
fight
Jackson opened every battle with
prayer. Daily and nightly be prayed
IN bis tent, and every man under his
command, no matter how irreligious,
felt the spiritual uplift of his prayers
But Jackson fought as well as be
prayed. He was a military genius
Historians north and south American
and European, have characterized him
as one of the very ablest generals on
either side of the conflict. But for his

beat him. he said. At first he insisted
that he acted alone, and later when
he said that his act was inspired he
refused to reveal the identity Of his
companion. His first statement was:

lice and I wanted to throw It at them.

He refused to incriminate others
and nothing further had been learned
from him when he was placed under
an anaesthetic, preparatory to an op.
Grafton. There Is little chance that
he will long survive. Silverstein'a
companion has not been identified.
Silverstein's statements caused him
the greatest physical effort and were
made unwillingly. When he had re
fused to say more OF his act. and when
on a cot at the hospital he seemed
to be dying. he repeated again and
again. my name is Silverstein." q,

ENTERPRISES CAPTAIN.

There are few sea captains of the
old school who, during their long
years of gambling with the mysteries
and terrors which the sea holds, have
not at some time or other met with
misfortune, disaster or shipwreck.
The sea is ever claiming its tribute,
and even in these later days of mod
ern sailing and steam craft, of inge-
NOUS aids to navigation, the OCCASION
al sea horror or disaster is reported.
Every captain at times has vision
in his mind of the cleaning teeth of
the shoal, of savage breakers, of a
vessel grinding its life out upon the
rocks, of collision and fire. He never
knows when the sea may reach out its
treacherous arms and claim the vessel
which he commands.
The captain who has sailed the seas
for thirty-eight years without mis-
hap of any kind is looked upon raver-
emily by the superstitious salt Cap
tain J. o. Youngren of the Matson
Navigation Company steamer Enter

kind, never lost a man and have never

boast, "and 1 hope it will be always
500
AS master of the steamer Enter
prise, which plies between this port
and the Hawaiian islands, Captain
Youngren is well known. For six years
he has piloted the Enterprise to and
from the islands through storm and
calm.
Before he assumed command of the
Enterprise, Captain Youngren was
master of the schooner Levi Burgess
for twelve years, running from the
Coast to the islands and Australia.
With the exception of the occasional
loss of a sail, he suffered not one mis-
hap during those twelve years
As captain of the old schooner n. L.
Drew, which carried the champion hon
ors in the regattas once held by the
master mariners, he was as fortunate.
The N-@L. Drew was reputed to be the
fastest schooner of her time on the
Coast. Captain Youngren also com
manded the schooner Marie Schmidt
with equal success.-Chronicle.
