southern coast. and took up many Of
the important buoys, and those left to
aid the blockade runners to find their
way in and out of the southern ports
were in reversed order, viz, in going
into port the black buoy was left on the
starboard hand and the red on the port.
Perhaps Captain Craven had forgotten
this and when up with the red buoy may
have thought he was to leave it on the
starboard hand, as of old. Perhaps he
also forgot the instructions in general
order No. 10, viz, to steer N. E. I'M
til well past Fort Morgan; then change
the course to N. W. by N. If he had
obeyed this order he would have been all
right. But he did not, and who can GEN.
sure him for what he did? He atoned
for his error with his life. These torpe-
does were laid in semi circle, with a red
buoy at the eastern terminus. The rebel
ram Tennessee took up her position in
side this circle and near the torpedoes,
where she dropped anchor with steam up
and ready to slip her cable at minutes
notice. 1t was flood tide, so that she
swung clear of the torpedoes with her
heavy bow guns facing the foe, and this
position was taken for the purpose of
Turing some of our ships to destruction.
If Capt. Craven had obeyed his instruc-
tons he would have passed the Tennes-
see until she bore we'll on his port quar-
ter and then, passing the buoy on the
port hand, turned back at an angle of
about 60 degrees to engage her. The
Tennessee laying there inviting this at
tack was like the 1outing of red flag
in the face of mad bull, and the gal
liant Craven could not endure it. Those
who have never been in an engagement
can form no conception of how the blood
goes boiling and seething through per-
sons veins, so that at times they lose
all discretion. All they desire is to get
at the foe and that quickly.
Capt. Craven died as all brave men

Killed by Train.

William Sorenson, residing on the
P. d. Taylor farm, on the state road
miles east of town, near Doris,
met death on the Illinois Central
tracks, l mile east of Doris, early
Sunday morning. Mr.. Sorenson, who
was a man about As years Of age,
left home about o'clock that morn

the track. He had been subject to
epileptic fits and it Is thought that
he was so attacked while on the

Eat Meat on Friday.

Special dispensation has been
granted from Rome, allowing Cath
olics to eat meat on st. Patrick
day, which this year falls on Fri
day. Notice has been given to men,
bers of Catholic churches. 1T is a
hard thing for the Irish to be forced
to abstain from the use of meat
on this particular Friday" said
Archbishop Quigley. st. Patrick S
day is the one great day of the year
for all true sons of Erin. Many
feasts and banquets are planned and
enjoyed, and the ban on the eating
of meat would be most hard upon
them.
