way to the house when we heard a
shot. Upon looking around we saw
about fifty rebels coming out OF strip
Of woods not more than 200 yards in
rear of us.
Neil fired all the loads out of his
carbine and retreated down the road.
AS Hagan and were cut off from the
road, we took to the fields for 1t. |
didn't count the fences we went over,
but there were several Of them. The
cavalry horses were trained to jump,
and they went over like sheep. The
Confederate cavalry horses being
fresh from camp, gained on US very
rapidly, and were soon riding along
not more than so yards to the left of
us. Both parties were firing, but as
the horses were running at full speed
the balls flew harmless with one ex-
ception.
| well remember the words of the
captain as I took my position IN the
line. He said: "Hasson, where's Ha-

him" l saw a tear Ia the captains
eye when / answered him. Hagan got
back all right in rbout three or four
months. Our brigade arrived ct the
junction two hours before Lee, and he
had his wagon train in front Of him.
We kept the train moving until
about 200 wagons had passed. One of
our scouts rode up and told us to cut
the train, as a brigade of infantry and
a brigade of cavalry were coming in
sight. AS we were the only troops
that had reached the junction yet, we
had a lively time of it for awhile. We
formed line of battle in single line,
and fought mounted. We held them a
short time until they began to move
around our right flank. began to
,hink we were in a tight place when
rhe old Fifth corps came up with
:heer, and that settled 1t. We got the
wagon trail all right.

, on the Chesapeake gave as his dying
words the order, Don't give up the
. ship" but fate compelled his crew to
strike their colors. The Essex, the
first American frigate to sail around
Cape Horn into the Pacific, found
British vessel waiting for her, and in
the battle which ensued the enemy
came off victorious. In the midst OF
these disasters the New Englanders
were disregarding by a majority of
votes what the national government at
Washington decreed. They quietly and
secretly published a most unsatlsfac-
tory report that was supposed by
many to have had it's origin in an at
tempt to break up the federal power.
The south and middle west were 10y
al to the federal edicts. Jackson's mar
velous victory at New Orleans, while
possibly one of the most pronounced
military successes in the history OF
civilized warfare, was achieved after
peace had been declared, and hence
cannot be said to have had any bear
| ing on the ending of hostilities. The
terms Of peace were largely brought
about through French influence, as be-
cause of the military conditions ex-
listing between England and France,
the British found 1t impolitic to fol-
low up the American campaign, al
though the war was in their favor.
Here. then, is an apt illustration of
how the French (the Cock protected
the Eagles nest (America). So much
for the first line; the next is espe-
cially prophetic:
1.-The stars shall Use all in the West"
Immediately after the war OF 1872
the stars began to gather in our flag.
and they all came from the west, for
II should be remembered that In those
DAYS any country lying on the sun
down side of the Allegheny mountains
was considered west. Hence the open
ing up of the great western terri
tory with the immediate admission OF
the new states brought forth the
rise of the stars all in the west un-
I'll this day, when the flag has since
1912 seen 80 stars rise in the west
.rvhen ships above the clouds shall sail
The Lions strength shall surely fail"
It requires no great stretch of i'm
aeination to apply the above lines to
the present era when aviators are the
heroes of the hour, and long continued
fights in airships have ceased to be
a novelty. And one might take the
failing of the lions strength" to re-
fer to the lessening Of the British
navy's far famed power when confront
ed with the possibility Of attack by
enemies floating in the air. When
certain Frenchman not long ago cross
cd the channel in an airship and land
ed safely on British soil, great was the
alarm manifested throughout the
realm of King George. The event al
mos. caused a panic among those tE

might"
This could be accepted as referring
to the united forces of the colonists
(the Dove), and the French (the
Cock), at the final engagement before
Yorktown. This siege and battle re-
suited in the American victory, and
therefore the union of Americans and
French resulted in the Lion" being
compelled to crouch beneath their
might"
when the Cock shall guard the Eagles
nest
The stars shall rise-all in the West"
Here we find an allusion to the sub
sequent history of the three nations
American, French and English. When
independence was recognized, the sym
boil Of the United States appeared in
the form of a bald eagle, The bird of
freedom and imperial power"
The second test of martial power be-
tween American and England came in
1912, ana on both sea and land we
suffered severe losses, the capitol at
Washington being destroyed by the en-
envy and the city itself falling into pos
session of the British. But the shield
ing attitude Of France toward the
eagles nest (the young republic rep
resented by the American eagle) made
1t possible for the states to attain vic
tory from what the world had almost
pronounced defeat. The New Eng
land states were never in sympathy
with the war, and, indeed, an interest
ing non-national page, bordering on
occasional attitude, falls into the his
tory of the puritanic section Of our
country. The invasion Of Canada was
a decided failure. Hulrs surrender
has always been considered unsatisfac-
tory and totally unnecessary; he was
court-martialed and sentenced to be
shot; but MS Revolutionary military

James Hasson of Perryopolis, Pa. in

and were discharged in June. 1864. l

l was In Gregg's division, second
brigade, and 1t was while with that
command had close call In the fall
of 1864. The cavalry was on the ex-
treme left of the army at Petersburg.
Early one morning we started out on
a raid around the right of Lees army.
The Sixteenth Pennsylvania cavalry
was in advance, and as there is always
an advance guard in front of the NOV
ing column that duty fell to four men
of my company. Henry Mel, William
Hagan and, if l remember, Joe Neil
and myself.
Nothing very exciting happened on
our outward move. We reached Din
widdie G. H. some time in the after
noon. We then wheeled to the right
and moved up until we were in sight
of the enemys camps. We then
wheeled right-about and started on
our return.
Fitzhugh Lee was in command of
Lees cavalry, which consisted of
seven brigades, and we knew he would
follow us.
The guard had gotten a canteen full
of apple jack, and they began to get
pretty laxative. When the column
started to move the rear guard stopped
in the road and passed the canteen
around. AS l had not tempered with
the contents of the canteen, got hold
of it and threw 1t over my shoulder.
I told the boys they had had enough
for the present. l also remarked that
we were two miles in rear of the col
umn, and that Fitzhugh Lees cavalry
would jump onto us and give us a trip
to Libbey prison If we didn't look
sharp.
We then started to move. Hagan
and I moved through a gate, and
started to ride up to house some 200
yards from the road, where we saw a
mounted man sitting in front of the
house. We hadn't gone more than half

satisfaction to Those Who saw IL.
The house was iilled, every seat
being taken, which shows that
the popular company has the con-
lidence of the people.
The company is well balanced
and all performers are capable
players. Adele Hatton Bradford,
the leading lady, won her way to
the hearts of the people by her
portrayal OF the various parts
which she has handled. She is .
capable actress and her strong
personality, connected with her
ease and grace of the stage, is
such as to place her in the front
ranks of thespians.
The company appear tonight
and tomorrow night in popular
plays and the management will
hold a drawing of prizes to-
morrow night. There is but
little doubt that the hall will be
comfortably filled both nights.

PIas and Dairy Cows.

Where dairies or butter factories are, or where the milch COW Is fac tor for other purposes than the sale of milk as such, the pig is a most use full and profitable adjunct. Upon the skim milk, judiciously used with other and more substantial foods, he thrives, grows and fattens, utilizing a by-product of tremendous volume which without the pig would repre- sent little of available value. It is said that the skim milk from the but ter factories of New York alone amounts to nearly billion pounds in a single year. The use of this skim milk does much to give relief from monotony so common to the returns from the other or main foods with which 1t is given. and every hog-raiser is glad to have it.

ORCHARD AND FRUIT GARDEN
After Trees Are Trimmed Trunks Must Be Scraped-Should Be
 Scrubbed on Mild Day.

Scraping the dead bark, from the fruit trees will add much to their ap- pearance and produce a healthy growth the coming season. A steel hoe ground sharp, with short han de, is an excellent scraper. Only the rough old bark should be re- moved. After the trees have been scraped and the dead and broken limbs sawed of, scrub the trunk and larger limbs with luke-warm soap suds; mix one quart of hardwood ashes in each bucket of soap suds. The scraping and scrubbing of the trees should be done in the middle of q mild day Spread thick dressing of routed manure around each fruiting tree. The manure should be plowed or forked under. If much wood is burnt in the coal stove, the fine ashes should be spread around the trees, as there is considerable lime and potash in the ashes, just what the trees need.
 Have a sharp saw and knife, make a clean cut close to the limb, the wound should be brushed over with grating wax or shellac varnish to prevent the rain from entering and rotting the wood If a new orchard is to be planted the ground should be deeply plowed just as soon as the ground Is in good condition for blow. ing.
