"Lay Down Your Arms and Surren-
DER"

he was the only brigade commander
who led his brigade in that charge
of the Sixteenth Corps, and he was
on horseback at that. A lane ran
along the front Of and below the high
woodland upon which the Pointe Cou-
pee battery was. and the Confederates
took the inside fence rails and placed
them on top of the outer fence, with
the ends resting on top Of the fence
and sloped towards Us, the lower
ends covered with dirt to keep them
In place. They were laid close to-
gether. and it was difficult to climb
them. A shell had knocked out a
part Of the obstruction. AS ! was
looking towards the battery Git was
pouring grape, canister and shrapnel
at us all the time), did not notice
the movement of the regiment to the
right; consequently when l saw 1t
there was a break In my company Of
some Is or 100 yards. told the re-
naming eight or ten boys that we
would go to that gap and go over.
The boys boosted me up. and as
gained the top saw Col. Marshall
come galloping down from the right.
He rode out into the crowd Of fleeing
Confederates, calling out: Lay down
your arms and surrender l jumped
down, and telling the boys to follow
me, ran after the colonel. giving the
same call. There were apparently
thousands of them trying to get over
the hills to the Franklin pike. Our
left claimed the capture Of that bat
terry. too. yet we had been in posses
sion quite awhile before their line
had fairly started"

FOR THE ONION LOVER.

Is the crisp deliciousness OF the
onion and the feeling which comes
from knowing that We have a breath
which will bar us from our friends one
of the charms Of the Indulgence in the
odoriferous bulb? To most of us who
do enjoy the crisp and palatable Vege-
table eaten with discretion as to time
and place, there need be no regrets
We like them ourselves, but how we
do protest against the indulgence OF
our neighbors. There are people VINO
have no regard for the disgust OF oth-
ers. and freely eat of the forbidden
fruit (rather vegetable) on any ana
all occasions. To these who object
strenuously to the presence OF onion
flavor in any food, there is much TO
say, for many dishes are simply char
acterless without dash of onion juice
to give it zest.
A mere touch of the flavor is not
observable, but its absence Is most
noticeable. Robert Louis Stevenson
calls the onion the. poetic soul OF the
salad bowl. Truly our salads would
be fiat and improbable If 1t were not
for the small bulb.
For an all round vegetable, the
onion stands rst, wholesome, stlmulat-
ing, antiseptic and prophylactlc.
What more could one ask?
Those who are weak and feeble viii
find that the free use of the onion
will give new strength.
! Our grandmothers recognized irs
prophylactic powers (though not by
that name), when giving young and
old onion sirup for colds and coughs
The antiseptic effect is found to be
active in the large intestine, where
imperfectly digested food may bs
stagnating and cause self-poisoning'
The onion disinfects and the Whoie
system is cleansed.
BOILED onions do not leave the
breath quite so extensively noticeable
as when eating the raw ones YET
there are those who are so fond OF
them and make up their minds that
thew may as well be anathematlzeo
for a strong odor as weak one.
Parsley is the best of odor remoV'
ers and is really very efficacious.
One good Englishman said we woulo
hetter be without noses than without
onions.

Twice Mistaken.

Sykes Dog and Hoods Army.

After the battle OF Nashville friend
asked President Lincoln II he expected
any more trouble from Hoods army
He replied:
We'll, no. Medill; 1 think Hoods
army is about in the same fix OF Bill
Sykes dog, down in Sangamon county.
Bill had a long, yellow dog that was
forever getting into the neighbors'
meat houses and chicken coops. They
had tried to kill it hundred times,
but the. dog was always too smart for
them. Finally one of them got small
bag and filed it up with powder. tying
a piece of punk around the neck. When
he saw the dog coming he fired this
punk, split open a hot biscuit and put
the bag in. then buttered it and threw
1t out. The dog swallowed it at a
gulp. Pretty soon there was an ex-
plosiOn. and pieces of the dog fell all
around. Pill Sykes came along. and,
seeing the scraps lying around. said:
I guess that dog. as dog. amt OF
much more account There may be
fragments of Hoods army around. but
guess his army. as an army. amt OF
much more account"

To Make Fight Against Ore Tax

County and state officials who want
to boost the tax duplicate by listing
$4,000, 900 worth of ore which is piled
up On the docks on tax day will meet
a hard fight. The battle will begin
August when a joint meeting of Off
cials from counties which have lake
ports, the state tax commission and
the ore men will be held in Cleveland.
1t is argued by attorneys for the

ness from Ohio ports to other states.
It also is maintained that the greater
part Of the ore is merely in transit.
