THE DRUMMER BOY OF SHILOH
Colonel John L. CIem's Story of How

He Got Into the Regular Army.
An interesting story is told of the
way Colonel John L. Glen, the famous
drummer boy of SHILOH and now
assistant quartermasier general, got
into the regular army. In the early
days of General Grants first term as
president Glen, without aid, secured
an audience.

"What!" said the president, amazed

Glen was then scarcely eighteen and

"Yes, Mr.. President. l was in the
war four years." And he related his
experience.
The president then wrote something,
sealed it and, handing it to Glen, said:
Take this to the secretary Of war.

Glen went to the secretary, to whom
he had already applied. and was re-
ceived somewhat coldly. He delivered
the note. The secretary read 1t and
said:
"Do you know what this ISL"

AN INTERRUPTED BATH.
How Sherman Caught Five Thousand
Confederates In Adams Garb.


Confederates In Adams Garb.
Inch by inch" relates an ex-Confed
crate, "the gray jackets had retired
from the Tennessee mountains, contest
ing every vantage ground down to
Kenesaw. But, strive as they might. the
advancing column of Sherman's legionS
was too much for them. and even from
the heights of Kenesnw mountains we
were driven down through the Allntoo
ma hills to the Chattahoochee river. On
July 1S, 1864. dusty and battle stained
we stood on the banks Of that stream
and gazed upon its waters rolling along
far below. Masking our cannon on the
bluff that overlooks Nickajack creek
we made a break for the river. The
water was so alluring that we would
have plunged into it had the risk OF
being surprised by the enemy been
even greater.
''In a few minutes the river was full
of naked 'rebs' disporting In the waters
so deliciously cool after that long, hot
march through the Allatoona hills. We
were only COO or 700 yards above the
mouth of Nickajack, and the water was
quite shallow, as the long drought had
brought the river down.
suddenly from the direction of Nick
ajack there was a pow, pow, pow
Imagine the amazement with which we
beheld q squadron Of Federal cavalry
at the mouth of the Nickajack blazing
away at us with their carbines and
only prevented from completing our
surprise by their inability to ascend
the almost perpendicular bluff that rose
on our side of the stream. There were
some 5000 of us, but our numbers
counted little when we had not even
the protection of an undershlrt from
those vicious bullets, and none of us
knew what moment some gun might
prove superior and send a ball into
some of our naked bodies. Our bath
was spoiled. and never did 5000 men
dress more quickly than we did.
"In twinkllng we were in line. and
the waters of the Chattahoochee were
gliding along again undisturbed. We
stood off the Yankees until night and
all the next day, when Sherman moved
up the river. and we changed our posi-
ton accordingly" - Atlanta Constitu

Twice Postponed His Execution.

York, Pa, May 26.-For the sec
ond time within the past two months
George Govogovitch, now in the
York county prison under sentence
of death for the murder of Michael
Tintor, has been respited by the Gov
ernor. Govogovitch was sentenced
to be hanged April 27, but the Gov
ernor granted a respite until May
27, so that an appeal could be taken
to the Supreme Court. The Supreme
Court granted rule on the lower
court to show cause why new trial
should not be granted. To-day the
Governor again stayed the execution,
this time until June 29.

A Relic of
John Brown

N very dflapidated condition-in
the midst Of the accumulation of
old casting boxes and scrap lum-
ber in the yard of the Emery
company's copper smithy on Railroad
row, Springfield, Mass, now given over
to the tender care Of rats and pigeons,
with an occasional tramp drifting in as
an extra guest-stands the identical
warehouse used by John Brown and
his sons, John junior and Jason, be-
tween the years 1S47 and 1851.
John Brown had lived in Massachu-
sets before. He studied to be n min
lister in the family of Rev. Moses Hal
lock of Plainfield just before he reach
ed his majority in the winter of 1919.
At that time he was described as
"rather tall, sedate, dignified," and he
was sent back to his fathers lanyard
in less than q year because Of inflam-
nation Of the eyes.
In the warehouse John Brown work
ed daily with his men. some white and
some colored. sorting. CHASING and
trapsshipping wool. There QS4Sl Fred
erick Douglass called upon him and
twas surprised to find him in such a
small wooden house on back street"
In that same year Brown. elated at
his successful sales, plunged" to the
extent Of going to Europe to interview
English buyers. 1t is related that he
was phenomenally astute in grading
wool by the sense Of touch. A half
dozen Englishmen met the Yankee
farmer and, having heard of his keen
ness in this particular, resolved to put
1t to the test. He was led into n dark
room in which three small sample
packets were lying. Brown instantly
detected which was Saxony. which
was from Ohio. but at the third he
hcsitated moment. Turning to the
jokers, he said. "If you have any sau.
sage machines in England that will
work up dogs hair, put this in it!'
The laugh was on his companions, for
they had indeed used the shearings
from a poodle to fool him.
Brown greatly endeared himself to
the blacks. In his Springfield ware.

that city as a porter. He said that
when he asked Brown how early in
the morning he should come to work
the reply was, 1--WE usually begin work
at 7, but come earlier, for l want to
talk with you" He declared that
Brown was wont to talk by the hour
with white or black sympathizers.
1t made little difference how press
ing the business; the enthusiast was al
ways ready to call halt when the op
portunity to exploit his views present
ed itself. He preferred to do most of
the talking and appreciated good lis
tener.
In the collated correspondence of
Brown there are two later items hav-
ing a distinct bearing upon this wool
working Springfield era. On the copy
of Browns letter to his son John, as
given in DR.. G. W. Browns book, ap-
pear these words apropos to the IA
theirs elation at making a business
connection with Colonel Perkins (Jan.
II, 1S44):
"This, I think, will be considered no
mean alliance for the poor bankrupt
and his family In a manner so unex-
pected. most certainly hope we will
have the wisdom given us to make the
most Of it."
In the letter quoted in Frank B. San
born's book, under date of April 1G.

self imposed martyrdom, addressing
''dear wife and children, every one,"
Brown speaks of "the liabilities in

The LAKE ARIEL
TROLLEY Line
Proposed New Trolley Line from
Dunmore to Lake Ariel-Pos-
sibIy to Other Points in

Dunmore to Lake Ariel-Pos-
sibly to Other Points in
Wayne County.
The Scranton Republican declares
that there appears to be more than
a suggestion regarding a new troll
ley line between Dunmore and Lake
Ariel. 1t says that the fact that
there is money and energy behind
the proposition is evident. Options
have been secured on considerable
private property between the two
points mentioned, and surveys have
been made.
w. L. Connell is largely interested
in the project, and it was he who
sought out the right of way. 1t is
claimed that the Northern Electric
officials are not back of the project
or will engineer its development.
The plan now is to furnish rapid
transit from Dunmore to Lake Ariel
and to provide added amusements
and attractions at that watering
place. 1t is claimed that half
hour running schedule could be es-
tablished through a picturesque sec
tion of the east mountains.
AS nearly as can be learned several
routes are under consideration. All
of them traverse Elmhurst and Mos
COW. One is said to embrace Dun
more, then through Roaring Brook
township and then on to Moscow
through Madison township, through
Aberdeen, Madisonville and Clark S
Corners to the lake in Wayne county.
Anyhow the route is designed to open
up territory that produces consid-
cradle agricultural products. 1t
would make Lake Ariel, now some
what isolated because of poor rail-
road facilities, one of the most popu-
lar summer and winter resorts in
this end of the state. 1t would also
encourage suburban living in the
neighborhood of the lake, making
the real estate end of the proposition
in itself worth while. Considerable
ice is obtained yearly from the lake,
thus there would be another source
of profit. What might be lost when
the summer season closes will in a
measure be balanced by freight busi-
ness in winter. The new road, if it
is built, may take another route, and
touch also at WINNERS.

JOHN BARBUOTO
TRIED FOR MURDER
Alleged Murderer of GaetanO and
Violator of His Bride Tried
for the Crimes i'm New


burg, n. y.
The trial of John Barbuoto, the
Italian who is accused of double
murder near Middletown, n. Y, was
begun in the Supreme Court at New
burg, Monday morning, Justice
Morschauser presiding. The evil
dence is mostly circumstantial, there
being but one living witness to the
scene that ended in the death of
two persons, and that witness, Ma
delina Gaetano, the bride of a brief
period of one of the men who was
shot in cold blood and cousin of
the other.
The prisoner was seated by the
side of his counsel as the prepara-
tions were making for the trial. He
was neatly shaven, hair cut and had
a generally neat appearance. Bar
buoto looks not to exceed 80 years
of age, and is intelligent, so far as
can be judged.
The jury was selected with but
little delay and after being sworn
we're directed by the court to re-
main together until a verdict shall
have been reached.
The story of the murder for which
Barbuoto is being tried may be
briefly told as follows
On the night Of January 4, 1909,
Finizio Gaetano and his bride, who
had been in this country but few
days, arrived at Middletown, accom-
panied by Scanlon Carmino, cousin
of the bride, who came to America
with her. They were at Middletown
for the purpose Of passing the night,
previous to going into the interior
in quest Of employment. AS the
hour was late they entered saloon
on Cottage street, where they men
toned their desire for stopping
place, and three men volunteered to
escort them to such. 1t is claimed
that John Barbuoto,, Alphonso Vale
and Enrigo Cormellio were the trio.
At all events, these are the men in
dicted. The Italian immigrants and
their volunteer guides left the Cot
tage street saloon, and after taking
them a long distance over Erie Rail-
road tracks, it is alleged the guides
shot the two men down with revol-
vers they had evidently taken with
them for that purpose. Having thus
disposed of the men they threw the
lifeless body of Carmino on the rail-
road tracks where it was fearfully
mangled by the cars and then as
saulted criminally the powerless wo-
man. Next morning Barbuoto and
mis- companions left the scene of their
crimes, and the woman fell into
equally wicked hands, for the store.
keeper at Howells, Raphael Carmel.
10, also assaulted the woman, and
for this crime, which he confessed
to finally, he is serving term al
Sing Sing prison.
Barbuoto has not denied that he
was in the party of three that left
the Cottage street saloon with the
visitors, but claims that he was ar
involuntary and helpless witness tt
the scenes that followed. On the
other hand, Mrs. Gaetano has posit
lively identified him as one of the mer
who fred the shot that robbed hel
of a natural protector.

Close Quarters,

At the battle of Charleston, Mo-, in
August. 1861, Lieutenant Colonel Ran
som of the Eleventh Illinois was urging
his men to the charge when an officer
rode up to him and said: what DO you
mean? You are killing our own men"
'T know what I am doing" replied
Ransom. "Whom are you for?" II am
for JEFF Davis" was the reply. "You
are the man I'm after" returned Ran.
som, and instantly two pistols were
drawn. The Confederate fred first,
hitting Ransom in the arm. Ransom
shot his antagonist dead.

AS a Result of Tuesdays Meeting,
There is no Doubt the Bridge
Will be Built this Year.
Another step in the direction of
the proposed bridge across the
Lackawanna river at Forest City
was taken on Tuesday and If no
untoward event interferes it is
likely that the structure will be
reality and opened to the public
before another winter sets in. The
commissioners of Susquehanna
county and Wayne county with
their attorneys and clerks, Mr.. Beyea
of the Hillside and Attorney O'Mal-
ley of the Erie, the supervisors of
Clinton township, representative
the borough and the viewers of the
two counties were on the ground
Tuesday getting together on the
project. The viewers who had al
ready made a report were here to
adjust little red tape which had
been overlooked in the original pro-
ceedings. A proposition was drawn
up and submitted to the Erie COM
pany that they enter into a con-
tract with Clinton township and
Forest City to put in the abutments
and fill, the two counties lending
their financial assistance to the
borough and township, and the
counties will Jointly build the arch.
The proposition met with the sane
tion of all parties present and if the
railroad company now agrees to the
proposition the labors of the past
ten years will soon end in an ac-
bdmplished success Forest City

CLEARS UP MURDER MYSTERY

Baltimore Man confesses That He
Killed Ex-Convict In Woods.
Baltimore, May 10. - Milton Beau
mont of this city confessed to the po-
lice that he killed the man whose body,
with the throat cut and features mu-
tilated, was found In the woods near
here.
His victim, Beaumont said, was Bob
Rogers, notorious criminal, who
served a term in the Eastern Penn
sylvania penitentiaFy for highway rob-
berry.
Beaumont said that Rogers had a
grudge against him and during a
quarrel attacked him with a razor.
Beaumont finally secured the weapon,
he said, and slaShed Rogers about the
face and cut his throat.
