kSoIdier Who Followed the Orders Of
General Jackson.
Illustrative of the exasperating ease
with which chickens occasionally come
home TO roost" Is this story from "a
Soldiers Letters to Charming Nellie"
On day In June, 1862, In the early
part of the civil war General Hood OF
the Texas brigade halted each regi
ment in turn and gave his orders. To
the Fourth he said:
Soldiers of the Fourth, l know as
little of your destination as you do. II,
however, any of you learn or suspect
1t, keep 1t secret. To every one who
asks questions answer, 4 don't know
We are now under the orders Of Gen
eral Jackson, and ! repeat them to
you"
General Jackson also gave strict Or
ders against foraging but apples were
plentiful, and 1t was contrary to nature
for hungry soldiers not to eat them
and SO 1t came about that on the
march to Staunton General Jackson
came upon a Texan sitting ON the
limb OF an apple tree busily engaged In
filling his haversack with the choicest
fruit
The general refined In his old sorrei
horse and In his customary curt tone
asked:
"What are you doing In that tree,
sir2"
II don't know" replied the Texan.
"What command do you belong tor
II don't know"
"Is your command ahead of you or
behind your
II don't know"
Thus 1t went on, Il don't know" CIV
en- as answer to every question. Final.
ly Jackson asked sternly.
why do you give me that answer
to every question:
"'Cause them's the orders our gen
eral gin us this mornin' an he tole
US he got 'em that er way straight
from ole Jackson" replied the man in
the tree.
Disguised with too literal obedi-
ence to his own commands. but yet
not caring to argue the point General
Jackson rode on.

A DREADFUL WEAPON.
The Slashing Sharks Teeth Club Of
tho Poiynesians.

Clubs We're the weapons of primitive
and savage man. Ancient specimens
from Mexico are heavy sticks grooved
along the side for the Insertion OF
blades of bosidian-that Is, volcanic
glass. The Sioux club Is fiat piece
Of wood curving and widening away
from the grip and terminating In
spherical head. which In modern times
carries a long spike. while the blades
Of several butcher knives are common
ly inserted along the margin. The ma
tlonal museum of the United States
possesses great variety of these
shocking weapons, designed, as the
frontiersmen say. to KNOCK down the
white man and then to brain him and
cut him into mlnce meat" The Kings
mill islanders and other Polynesians
make dreadful slashlng weapons by Sc
curing rows OF sharks teeth along a
haft of wood.
These weapons vary from a few
inches TO sixteen feet in length. and II
has been said that In all the range Of
weapons devised by mankind there Is
nothing more blood curdling to behold
They show how the sword may have
been evolved from the club even by
tribes unacquainted with the use OF
metals African weapons, again, are
exceedingly complicated owing TO the
acquaintance OF the natives with iron.
The standard club is converted into
sort OF tomahawk by the addition Of
blades or into a primitive spear by the
addition of a sharp spud. The plain
clubs In the African area are used
chiefly for throwing.
The small knobbed clubs, or "ker
ries." such as are found among the
Kafilrs and other African tribes, are
generally used as missiles. Whereas
the club proper was soon brought to
perfection among savage tribes and
was long ago abandoned as a weapon
Of civilized warfare, the missile-typi.
fed by the thrown clubs or "kerries"-
is still being improved upon in boom
erangs, bows and arrows, crossbows
and firearms

incident In tho Temperance Career OF
Father Mathew.
In 1913, when Father Mathew was
erusading for total abstinence In Lon
don, he created no small amusement
mansion of an Irish nobleman by his
attempts, partly playful. but also part
ly serious to make convert of Lord
Brougham, who resisted good humor-
edly, but resolutely, the efforts of his
Jealous neighbor. The incident Is re-
lated by Katharine lyman In her biog-
raphy Of Father Mathew.
Il drink very little wine," said
Brougham, "only half glass at lunch.
con and two half glasses at dinner.
And. though my medical adviser told
me should increase the quantity, l
refused to do so"
HE was wrong, my lord, for ad.
wishing you to increase the quantity, and
You were wrong In taking the small
quantity you do" said Father Mathew,
but have my hopes of you"
And so. after pleasant resistance
on the part of the learned lord Father
Mathew invested his lordshlp with the
silver medal ana ribbon, the insignia
and collar of the new order of the
Bath"
"Then l will keep It," said Brougham

The announcement Of this intention
was received with much laughter for
the noble lord referred to was notori
GUS for his potations.
Lord Brougham was as good MS his
word, for on meeting the veteran peer
he said, Lord -, l have present
from Father Mathew for YOU" and
passed the ribbon rapidly over his
neck
"Then l tell you what II Is. Brough-
am, ! will keep sober for this night"

And he kept this vow, to the amaze
