oUEILING A MUTINY.

Fresh interest attaches to anecdotes
Of Gen. Lew Wallace through the re-
cent placing of statue Of the famous
soldier and author in the Capitol at
Washington. That General Wallace
was no less successful with his per-
sonal influence than with his pen and
sword is shown by the following, taken
from his Autobiography" The gen.
eral had been sent TO Columbus, o., to
take charge of camp of paroled pris-
oners, feed them, pay them. organize
them, and send them to Minnesota to
quell an Indian outbreak. The camp
was reported to be in a disgraceful
and rebellious condition.
General Wallace asked the provost
marshal what the situation at Camp
Chase was.
There are Eve or six thousand men
there, the exact number nobody knows.
I've not been lately to the camp. My
life insurance policy expired several
months ago!"
"Dou you mean it is dangerous2"
asked Wallace.
''The people Of the town are scared,
and the governor is asking for more
troops"
Against the camp?"
Against the herd there"
'Why do you say herd?"
Because they are beasts there"
Wallace was advised to go with an
escort, but he dressed himself careful

horse and rode out to Camp Chase.

broke and resolved itself into multi

in. Such a sight never imagined.
The men were long-haired and whisker-
ed, their faces we're the color Of green
cheese, they had no coats or shoes, and
many were wrapped in dirty blankets
in lieu Of shirts. They shook their
clenched hands at me and clamored
furiously.

Most Profitable Farm Animal,

Most Profitable Farm Animal.
Opinion is divided and probably al
ways will be on the question which is
the most profitable farm animal to
raise. Many believe the horse brings
the greatest profit, others tie their
faith to the beef breeds, and still 9TH
ers to the dairy breeds of cattle, but
it seems that the friends of the hog
are in the majority. A hog requires
more care at times than do some
other animals, but it is wonderfully
prolific, and il the quality and breed
ing are right it is easy to make a
market for the animals produced, and
the farmer has the advantage of turn
ing his money over more rapidly and
more prof1tably in hog breeding than
in perhaps any other kind Of animal
production. OF course, there are
many risks to assume, as the modern
hog is a purely artificial product and
subject to humors and diseases which
would not come to it in its wild state.
The investment of a moderate sum Of
money in a few brood sows in the
spring will make man a hog breeder
within year; whether bred as spe-
cialty or as side line, the hog always
gives good account Of himself

the Republican primaries over George
W. Egan by about 1900. This is con-
coded by the Egan forces. The stall
warts continue to claim they have re-
nominated Congressman Burke and
Martin, and their assertions are appar-
entity well founded, though an official
count will be required to make the
results of the primary. other than gov
ernor, definitely known.
The nomination of Burke is sur
prise, as he has been strong support

CHAPTER III.

GUS Ill DuC one paTLlCulaf. he
4 4 was fond of fancy waist
coats. His fastidiousness began and
ended with waistcoats. His trousers
and coats were invariably Of the same
cloth and cut, summer and winter, year
in and year out. His waistcoats be-
trayed a catholic taste for color and
variety. Whenever he felt like in
dulging himself or celebrating a VIC
tory or forgetting defeat he went
out and bought new waistcoat.
AS he was travelling light" he had
brought to Hewington Acres bare
half dozen of them, and Of these he
had narrowed the choice to two-one
a creation Of tobacco brown silk with
red dots In it, the other a white pique
with buttons Of smoked pearl. Which
should he wear for Sunday morning
stroll in the garden? In the end he
tossed a quarter. The brown silk won,
much to his satisfaction, for he had q
newborn suspicion that the white one
made his waist line appear more rotund
than it really was.
Still. he was in the garden at 8
O'Clock. Probably it was mere curl
osity that led the Cherub to pace up
and down the trinity kept walks for
long half hour. He was about to give
up the vigil and leave when he caught
sight Of the countess peering from be-
hind one Of the stone gateposts.
Making pretense of not having seen
her. Mr. Devine sauntered by to the
gate and seemed surprised when he
found her before him. He noted that
this morning she was in gray, with
something white at her throat. He
even remembered that last night she
had worn black.
"You must not misunderstood my
coming here" she began hurriedly. 1T

"Oh, yes. That was Kittie's birth

Her real name is O'Neill, you know"

path, but she still kept her brown eyes
fixed on Mr.. Devine. There was
curious. apprehensive look In them
such as a small boy bestows on can

"But how about the reform?

that you were going to give me some
pointers on breaking into good So

The countess shook her head.
Il was mistaken. 1t was very silly
of me to make such promise. But

to be here talking to you at ALL"
"Well, why not? What's the par

frame reply. He had expected moth
