Stories about the war between the states are getting scarce-that is, sto- ries told by men who enacted the events narrated. Time was when vet erans used to meet and swap yarns by the dozens-all true too. But now they are too old to get together very often and when they do they find their memories are so defective that 1t is difficult for them to get through a con tlnuous narrative. They mix up dates and places and armies so that it spells the story.
 A veteran whose hair was white as snow, whose cheeks were hollow, told me this story. It was difficult for me to realize that he was the same man who as a boy nearly half a century ago took part in the adventure he narrated.
 "I'd been prisoner of war so long," he said. that felt I'd rather die than stay any longer in that prison pen. So one dark night got two men to stand up against the fence. the one on the others shoulders, and climbed up to the shoulders of the top man, clutched the fence and got on top of 1t. How I did it l don't know, for I'd had little or nothing to eat for months and was weak as a kitten. dropped over into soft mud, and luckily the sentry didn't hear me; if he had I'd have been shot
 Some negroes took me in early the next morning, hid me and gave me plenty of corn pone. with an occasion al feed of salt pork. Having got some strength in me concluded to light out nOrthward. One of 'em told me about

PRESSURE OF WATER.
It's Effect Upon corked Bottle Low
 cred Into Ocean Depths.

cred Into Ocean Depths.
 A bottle partly filled with fresh water and tightly corked can be lowered into ocean depths. and on being raised to the surface it will be discovered on opening it that the fresh water has been replaced by salt.
 This really extraordinary phenome- non is explained in the following way: The pressure of water increases as the distance from the surface in- creases. Thus at the distance of a foot beneath the surface the pressure of the water a square inch will be about half a pound; at distance of, say. POO feet it will be l25 pounds to the square inch. At ocean level the pres sure of the atmosphere is little over fourteen pounds. Thus if bottle con taining air were lowered thirty feet be- meath the surface the pressure of wa ter would more than counterbalance the pressure of the air. Ordinarily at this depth. therefore, the pressure of water should be sufficient 10 drive the cork within the bottle. but the cork is tightly wedged in position. To squeeze it within the bottle it, too, must first be compressed, and also there is friction to be overcome.
 The distance varying. then. accord ing to these conditions. at some point beneath the surface the weight of wa ter will force the cork into the bottle, compreSSing the air before it. The salt water of the ocean mingles with Al. s.i, L.rI the bottle again approaches he surface the air that remains within is sub jected to less and less pressure till finally. now having itself q pressure greater than that of the water, it drives the cork back into position.

T SAW THE AGENT LOOKING AFTER ME"
 a dead Confederate soldier he'd seer
 in the woods, and asked him to get
 me his clothes. They were nothing
 but butternut, but there was a brass
 bolt buckle and some other things with
 c. s. A. on them, and that served me
 as we'll as a uniform.
 "I started to travel nights and lie hid
 among the niggers in daytime. In the
 morning after starting, when the dawn was breaking and was looking about
 for a retiring place, came upon a railroad station. A locomotive was standing on side track coupled to two or three empty freight cars. The fire was burning low and there was some steam on. I judged that the en- gineer and fireman had arrived not long before and turned in either in the station or in one of two or three houses that were scattered about.
 "I lived near a railroad yard as 8 boy and used to get the engineers to let me run with them, sometimes flr- ing for them; so l knew something about locomotive. l got up into the cab, opened the furnace door and saw that the fire was nearly out. calcu- lated the possibility of getting a ride nOrthward on the machine, but I'd have to fire up before trying it. I was pretty desperate and ready for any risk. So I dropped one lump of coal after another into the fire box, not daring to make the noise of shov- cling it in. I worked half an hour at this, and concluded that whoever was running that engine must be pretty sleepy. for no one appeared to inter fere with me. I should have raked out the ashes, but didn't dare do that, for the noise 1t would make. Pretty soon the steam began to make noise and didn't dare defer my departure any longer. uncoupled the box cars, mounted the cab and made as nOiselesS a start as possible.
 My heart was beating wildly, keep ing my eye to the rear, but when came to a turn around a rise in the ground without seeing any one behind me I gathered courage and let her go. got over some five miles in about fifteen minutes, when I stopped and, taking a file from tool box in the cab. climbed telegraph pole and cut the wires. This was to keep any one from heading me of.
 Considering that wore butternut I had pretty fair show to pass along he road without being stopped that 8 if no telegram had been sent to top me before I'd cut the wires and Y didn't think any one would suspect \
