A GRACEFUL GIFT.
Gen. Huidekoper Presents a Memorial
Tablet to Crawford County, Pa.


Gen. Henry S. Huidekoper decided to
make gift of unusual value and in
terest to his County Crawford County,
Pa.) in a tablet of bronze, TO bear the
names of all the gallant sons of that
County who enlisted in his regiment,
the 150th Pa. The matter was laid
before Serg't Peiffer Post by Commits
sioner w. II. Smith, the Adjutant of the
Post. and, of course, the comrades were
delighted at their own Coloneis gen.
crosby and high sentiment Capt. w.
H. Smith, T. Henry Apple and Joseph
Boswell were constituted a committee
of the Post to take charge of the mat
ter. Gen. Huidekoper suggested that
the dedication be set for next Memorial
Day, but the committee was inclined
to believe that time later in the
Summer would be more appropriate.
The tablet is of bronze, six feet high
by three feet wide, and bears the
names of nearly 400 members of the
150th Pa. The inscription at the head
says:
This tablet commentaries the pa
triotism and valor of the men of Craw-
ford County who served in the army
of the United States during the war of
the rebellion. Their courage and en-
durance were attested on every great
battlefield of the four years war. and
this tribute of affection to faithful and
gallant comrades is offered by Gen.
Henry Shipper Huidekoper in behalf
of the 81 men who. in August, 1862
enlisted in the 150th Regiment, Pa.

Below this are the names, arranged
by companies and rank. The donor
sent the following letter with the tab
let:

aided in putting down a wicked and
unnecessary rebellion. Among these

TWO GIRLS OF BANQUET.

Nothing happened at Malolos after
that unless it was plan the American
prisoners had Matched up to escape.
But as our plan was tipped" to the
officers by Canadian Brown (before re-
ferred to), it was not a success, and
the least said about it the better for
Brown.
On March II, at 5 o'clock in the
morning, we were informed that we
must move to San Isabelle. Six o'clock
found us again on the tramp, guarded
by six men and Corporal. Just what
the object was in moving us to San
Isabelle, only two and half miles
distant, we never knew; but the change
was a pleasant one for us, for we had
better quarters. We were Jailed in a

Malolos we occupied a cell with a
Canadian prisoner by the name of
Brown, who informed us that there
were two other American prisoners con-
fined there-Henry Huber of the First
Reserve Hospital Corps, and Albert
Sonnichsen, of the u. s. transport serv-
fee. The jail at Malolos was a two
story building with a stone floor, the
cells being nine by Is feet, with two
small barred windows furnishing light
and the entire bedroom set consisting

We found that we would be allowed
81 cents a day each for ration money.
My experience on Neyada's cattle range

to boil water without burning it, and

The Spirit of Winter is with us, maxi
ing its presence known in many differ
ent ways-sometimes by CHEEKY sun
shine and glistening SHOWS, and some
times by driving winds and binding
storms. To many people it seems, to
take q delight in making bad things
worse, for rheumatism twists harder,
twinges sharper, catarrh becomes more
annoying, and the many symptoms of
scrofula are developed and aggravated.
There is not much poetry in this, but
there is truth, and it is wonder that
more people don't get rid of these all
ments. The medicine that cures them
