FIRE NEAR LIMESTONE
CAUSES A $1,000 LOSS

Limestone, Dec. 27.-Dr. j. J. Mil
burn lost his store by fire few days
ago at his home near Milburn. Every
thing indicates that it was robbed and
then set on fire to conceal the theft as
the door was standing open when the
fire was first discovered and small
quantity of fresh meat was gone which
was not likely to be entirely consumed
by fire. Loss fully 5000 with no in
surance. The doctor talks of rebuild
ing at once which he is likely to do as
he is a chip out of the old block and
full of the Milbun pluck.

the shipment Of coal 10 the Lakes has
caused some little CONSERVATION among

peake and Ohio has been giving a rate
three-tenths Of a mill per ton per mile
less than the actual cost OF actual haul

which met here some days since wanted

"When it comes to consuming
gas in large quantities blind people
can beat their seeing brethren all
hollow" said an Inspector Of the
gas company. 81 know two fami-
lies where both husband and wife
are blind. Every jet is turned on
full tilt in their homes at night and
is kept going at that rate clear up
to l2 o'clock. Light and darkness
are all the same to the afflicted
ones, but they insist upon illumina-
ton brilliant enough for a recep-
ton. And that partially for light
is not whim peculiar to those two
couples. Most blind people feel
that way. They demand the light,
and in all private homes and insti-
tutions where the blind are cared

strange fancy."-Exchange.

Rossini's Resting Place.

For years Rossini's body rested
in Pere Lachaise, and then city
Of Florence asked that it might be
transferred to the Church Of the
Holy Cross in that city, where the
bodies Of Galilei, Michelangelo,
Machiavelli, Alferi and other great
Italians are entombed. Consent
was received from the municipality,
but the masters widow, Dona
Olympia, would consent to the
translation only on condition that
when her time came her body
might be placed next to that of her
husband. This request was bluntly
denied, for the reason that only
Italians "who had achieved great
ness" could rest there. In 1878 the
widow died and before her death
consented in writing to the removal
of her husbands body to Florence,
provided her body be placed in the
grave from which his would be TAX
en- in Pere Lachaise, and after q
long time for consideration this
was done.

the VOICE IN rHa DARK
A Memory Of PIckett's Brigade and .
Night Attack.


Some years after the civil war
gathering Of veterans Of both sides
was exchanging "reminiscences at a
banquet given by the board OF trade
of New York, writes Mrs. La Sale
Corbell Pickett in Lippincott's.
The presiding officer was Colonel
J. j. Phillips of the Ninth Virginia
regiment, Pickett's division. He
was speaking of night attacks and
recalled one in particular, not be-
cause Of its startling horrors, but
because of peculiar circumstance,
almost resulting in the compulsory
disobedience of orders-the obey
ing, as it we're, of a higher COM
mand than that Of earth.
''The point of attack had been
carefully selected" said Colonel
Phillips, "the awaited dark night
had arrived, and my command was
TO fire when General Pickett should
signal the order.
"There was that dread, indescrib-
able stiffness, that weird, ominous
Silence, that always settles over
everything before fight. You felt
that nowhere in the universe was
there any voice or motion.
Suddenly the awesome silence
was broken by the sound of a deep,
full voice rolling over the black
| void like the pillows of great sea,
directly in line with our guns. 1t
was singing the old hymn, Jesus,
Lover Of My Soul
81 have heard that grand old
music many times in circumstances
which intensified its impressive
ness, but never had il seemed so
solemn as when it broke the still
ness in which we waited for the or
der to fire. Just as it was given
there rang through the night the
words:
Cover my defenseless head
With the shadow OF thy wing
Ready Aiml Fire to the
left, boysv l said.
/ "The guns we're shifted, the vol
lev that blazed out swerved aside,
and that defenseless head was Gov
cred with the shadow of his wing"
! A Federal veteran who had been
listening looked up suddenly and
said:
81 remember that night, colonel
and that midnight attack which
carried off so many Of my comrades,
/ was the singer"
There was a second Of silence
Then Jesus, Lover Of My Soul,
rang across that banquet board as
on that black night in 1864 it had
rung across the lines at Bermuda
Hundred.
