Ihe TunbrIdae TraaedY.

Tunbridge, the proud home of the tart
foundry and the greatest show on
earth.p has supplied the only really truly
sensational tragedy the state has had in
some time. Most Of the murders and
suicides and killings generally Of late
have grown out OF mere brutal braxls or
something Of that nature among foreign
ers whose names stick in our threats like
q hshbone. But Tunbridge has garn-
ished its affair with mystery and revenge
and all the dramatic elements that make
It readable.-St. Adams Messenger.

AS told by General ]. L. Botsford of
Youngstown, o., who was at the time
quartermaster of the Twenty-third Ohio
volunteer infantry. OF which Mckinley was
a member, the story of heroism thrills with
interest.
Mckinley was commissary sergeant Of
the regiment at the time of the battle of
Antietam,' General Botsford says, and
his duy should have kept him with the
supplies, which were about two miles from
the firing line. During the hottest coul s.
of the battle, however, the young man,
who was only 20 years old. conceived the
ioea of making coffee for the boys at the
front. Pressing into service some Of the
stragglers, he filled a wagon with hot cof-
fee and bareback and personally conducted
it into the midst Of the fighting men.

and his hot coffee. The rousing welcome
he received from both officers and men
can be readily imagined when the fact Is
considered Of his leaving his post OF Sc

frightful battle with team of mules. 1t
showed. even then, the character and de-
termination which were a part OF the man
whose later life proved his stability.
He was, ordered back time and again,
but he pushed on, and, as he gave a can
Of coffee and a bareback to a soldier who
had been shot the man murmured, Goo

afterward told me, alone repaid him for the
trouble and danger 10 which he had ex-
posed himself in ministering to the needs
of his comrades.

the benefit Of those who are not, a book

Looks of n Lightship.

The lightship, as may be seen by the
pictures. is high bowed and has a clipper
stem that is not so handsome as some of
the ~slantlng old-fashioned clipper bows of
the Yankee packets of long ago. There is a
bit of the suggestion of a duck in it's form,
and 1t looks the sea boat that it was de-
signed to be.
Admiral Mertz says of the lightships that
they are the finest storm defiers afloat and
the safest, and when properly handled will
put a gull to shame The tenders cannot
make SO good weather In a bow as the tall
sided, high bowed light vessels.
Every ship of the flotilla has extra
anchors and plenty of strong manila hawser
to be used in case any of them should be
disabled. All have also spare propellers.,
The progress will be made in indented
column, the flagship Manzanita leading,
with No. IS on its port quarter. The sequoia
will follow on the starboard quarter of No.
IS. and on the port quarter OF the Sequoia
Will come No. 90, which will have the
kukui on its starboard quarter. No. 80 will
bring up on the port quarter OF the Kukui.
The distance between the ships will be 400
yards by day and 800 yards at night or in
thick weather. The shippers will be able
to keep the distances at night by using
their sextants on the lights on the taffrails
and the after side of the mainmast near
the masthead.
