VETERAN STILL CHEWS
"REBEL" TOBACCO.
Allentown Man Has Some Captured
During the War.

Joseph s. Trumbauer, a war veteran
Of Allentown, Pa, still chews tobacco
"cpturcd from the Confederates. The
I:Cco is of the old fashioned navy
.dg brand, and Trumbauer declares
here is none like it.
Although he win be seventy-three
years old on April %, Trumbauer still
has the life of many a man of forty.
His walk is erect, his step vigorous
and his talk brisk.
He started for the front in response
to Lincoln's first call for troops ns a
member of the First Pennsylvania reg
iment. After his service in that regi-
ment he enlisted in the Two Hundred
and Second Pennsylvania volunteers
in 1862, remaining in that command
until the close Of the civil war.
While his regiment was part of Gen
eral Sheridan's army Cemrade Trum-
bauer was with detail sent to guard
property along the Manassas Gap rail
road at Sharpsburg, Va.
In company with another young sol
der he seized 200 pounds of rebel to-
bacco. What they could not carry
along of this loot was securely hidden
until he was mustered out of service,
when the tobacco was shipped north.
Trumbauer still has about twenty
pounds of the tobacco.

JERRY SOUTH AND
The DESPERATE.
House DisburSing Clerk Has a
Way Of Doing Things.

Jerry South, disbursing clerk Of the
house Of representatives, added an
other big scalp to his belt when he
held up Andrew Carnegie's witness
fees for few days. This is habit
OF Jerry's and recalls one of his ex.
plolts several years ago.
At that time q couple of citizens
named Taylor terrorized parts of Mis-
souri, to the point where n large re-
ward was offered for their capture
dead or alive" Mr.. South was the
riding bailiff OF a sheriff's Office and
had a habit of rounding up criminals
that were hard to take.
One day he was riding along the
road when he spied one of the Tay.
lor boys. He took" him. The des,
perado was peeved about II and shock
ed when Mr.. South told him his
program. South explained that he
was on his way to attend a conven-
ton at Little Rock. Ark, when his
mind was diverted by the sight of the
aforesaid Taylor. He explained that
he had to go to that convention and
there was no way out of it except for
the desperado to go along. as he Jerry
South needed that $1,000 reward.
Mr.. South and his prisoner proceed
ed to Little Rock. They put up at a
hotel and ate and drank together that
night The next day the desperate
occupied n seat beside Jerry in the
convention, and the day following he
was an attendant on the Democratic
meeting.
On the fourth day Mr.. South deliver
ed his prisoner at Joplin, Mo-, and got
the $4,000. The bad man told the
sheriff he had had a good time and
that South was a "derned good fel.
low"

stand sentinels in the fever-haunted
swamp, and then only in consultation
of which course to pursue and how
we should subsist, for at that hour
no one can imagine our hunger.
The first we had to eat we re-
ceived from a darkey-hoe cake
and were directed by him to travel
in the direction of a loyal woman s
home; reaching there, we received a
bountiful supper and were induced
by the seemingly good woman to re-
main over night. The bed on the
kitchen floor at the back part of the
house was enchanting, as it was the
first covering, under or over, that we
had had for months and months, and
brought to our weary frames rest
and oh what comfort But we did
not close our ever wary ears, and
as the knocks sounded on the front
door of the house, carefully we
showed the sliding kitchen window,
and out on the wings of freedom we
silently stole away, reaching the
suburbs of Newbury court house.
Over the fence into the cemetery,
among the graves Of the eternal
sleepers, we found a hiding place
from our would-be captors but be-
ing injured to moments of danger
we were not liable to suffer from a
sudden surprise. Long before morn
ing we could hear their horses gal
Looping by up the road, while we
nestled there secure around those
ghostly tombstones. Leaving that
chilly spot and taking to the woods,
we followed in a northerly direction,
guided by the large limbs on the
south and the moss that invariably
grows the heaviest on the north
side of the tree.

TABOO ON "CIVIL WAR"
President Taft Prefers Designation Of
War Between the States.

That President Taft favors the war
between the states" instead of "the
civil war" as part Of an inscription of
a soldiers memorial at Yale is fact
brought out by the details of the plans
of the Yale soldiers memorial commit
tee. The title the civil war" will,
however, probably be chosen by the
committee.
The plan favored by the committee is
4 series of tablets with artistic adorn-
ments at the inner entrance of Memo
rial hall.
All military titles Of the fallen Yale
soldiers will be rejected, and only the
full names and classes of the men who
fell on both sides used. Deaths before
the end of the year 1865 will limit the
names on the tablets. The committee
will report to the Yale corporation next
June. In the war 115 Yale men died
in the Union army and 40 in the Con
federate army.

A Sad Event,

The late Tody Hamilton, who was
held to know as much about circuses
as any human being could, once told of
the misfortune Of an Ohio man who
was attempting to pilot a lone tent
show" through the middle west.
This owner lost number of valuable
animals by accident and otherwise, so
that it was with considerable SYM
pathy that one of his keepers under
took the task Of breaking gently to
the old man" the news of further dis
aster. The keeper accomplished this
with much tact, as follows:
"Mr. Morgan. you remember that
laffin' hyena in cage No. 81"
Remember the laughing hyena?" re-
peated the owner. What the deuce
are you driving atT'
"Simply this, Mr.. Morgan: he amt
got nothin' to laff at this mornin'." d"

HOW TO PREVENT HARD TINES

Writing in THE Leviathan,"
Thos. Taper places the cause of
hard times upon the individual, and
says:
1t is in your power to prevent Hard
Times.
Speaking to me? Yes, to you.
You can prevent Hard Times by
doing your share every day toward
making Good Times.
If every laborer, boss, clerk, mer-
chant and banker would do this there
could be no bad times. When every
man is tending to his job and spread
ing cheerfulness, he is making good
times.
If you do not believe this-labor-
er, boss or clerk-then stay away
from your job two or three days,
look gloomy, make others feel
gloomy, and you will find, Hard
Times sitting at the table with you
and your family, shadowing your
footsteps around the house and
creeping silently to bed with you.
This is the way to make Hard
Times at home-privately, so to
speak.
Sometimes a few men get together
and declare that money is tight,
credit is gone, securities are of no
value. They look gloomy, spread
gloom and talk gloom.
This is the way to make Hard
Times, publicly, so to speak.
Now, what are the facts back of
Hard Times?
The first fact is that no money
has been destroyed.
All the money that existed just be-
fore the Hard Times came on is
still in the world.
The second fact is that everybody
is scared nearly to death about some
thing. Men are like a group of saw
ages in the presence of an eclipse.
They do not realize that an eclipse is
a shadow, a shadow that is passing
Hence, the second fact of Hard
Times is Fear.
h ear is a mental state or condi-
ton.
So are Hard Times.
1t seems clear, then, that every one
of us is in duty bound to contribute
to our associates, every day, all the
optimism we can. Optimism is the
opposite of Pessimism. The one
means a belief and confidence in
good things; the other a belief in
everything that is bad. Optimism is
belief in the Sun. Pessimism is a
belief that the shadow on the Sun
has destroyed 1t.
If everybody would contract the
habit of optimism, there could be no
Hard Times.
But, you say, Hard Times are on
us. There is no doubt about it. The
situation is serious.
All right.
This is the time, then, to apply
the rules; and here they are:
Keep on talking Good Times.
Do your share in the way of optim-
ism.
If your neighbor is frightened,
count ten before you let go of your
optimism. If you count ten slowly
you won't let go at all.
Then remember that when man
laughs he expands his blood vessels
and his circulation is fine.
But when he is frightened, every
! part OF his system contracts and his
heart fails to work properly.
When business is good everything
expands and the circulation of mon
ey is fine. But when men are fright
ened about business, money stops
circulating and the heart of the
business world fails to work.
Therefore, the best thing to do in
this work-a-day world of business is
to laugh and spread optimism.
