BULLETS IN BATTLE.
peash Wounds and Flesh Wounds and
the Feeling When Struck.

Deash Wounds and Flesh Wounds and
the Feeling When Struck.
In Serving the Republic General
Nelson A. Miles says that. like every
other soldier who has seen much active
service, he is often asked how it feels
to be wounded He himself was
wounded four times and twice almost
fatally, so he is able to speak from
experience. He says:
"One is often asked how 1t seems to
be wounded in battle. The fight of a
bullet is quicker than thought and has
passed through flesh wound before
one realizes that he has been struck.
I have seen bodies of men dead on the
field of battle where the brain had
been pierced and death had been in
stantaneous They would remain in
every position of the manual of arms
with an anxious look, frown or a
smile on their cold and rigid faces.
my wounds received at Fair Oaks,
Fredericksburg and Petersburg were
flesh wounds and disabled me but "a
short time. While riding down the
line at Charlottesville one of the enc
my's bullets struck my metallic belt
plate with great force. This caused a
slight deviation as 1t entered the body.
The result was an instant deathly sick
ening sensation. My sword dropped
from my right hand; my scabbard and
belt dropped to the left. was COM
pletely paralyzed below the waist. My
horse seemed to realize what had oc-
Cured He stopped, turned and walked
slowly back, holding to the pommel
Of the saddle with my hands. We
soon reached group Of soldiers. who
took me off and, placing me in a blan-
ket, carried me to the Charlottesville
House and pulled a dead man off a
couch to make room for me-

The Story of a Profile.

On the facade of the Palazzo Vec-
chic, at Florence. to the right of the
central entrance. the profile of mans
head is traced on the marble. the au-
thorship of which is ascribed to
Michelangelo. The story runs that
he and a friend made bet as to
which of them would draw head
best with their backs to the wall. a
bet easily won by Michelangelo, for
he traced a perfect profile. whereas
the other produced only wavering,
imperfect outline The story further
relates that the tool used was nail.
Both drawings are carefully preserved

HOW HOWARD SAVED A MAN.
Brief Temperance Talk While Wounded
Was Effective.

Was Effective.
The late General o. o. Howard often
related an incident in his own life to
show, he said, what great results some
times came from small efforts.
At the battle of Fair Oaks, on June
/, 1862, General Towards right arm
was shot off. As l was making my
way to the hospital he said weak
from loss of blood and from pain, 1
saw young man Intoxicated He
was so under the influence of whisky
that he could hardly walk. AS came
near him I stopped long enough to tell
him it did not pay to drink. 1t would
ruin him, and he had better stop be-
fore the habit had control of him.
Il passed ON to the hospital, had my
arm amputated and was sent home to
recover. saw and heard nothing more
of the drunken soldier until short
time ago, when an officer in Washing
ton told me his subsequent history.
Impressed by the fact that in my
wounded condition I had taken enough
interest in him to stop and give him
advice, he had then and there resolved
to quit drinking. He kept his resolu-
ton and when the war was over set
tied down to life of steady, honest
hard work. He gradually rose. and the
letter from Washington told me he had
just died, judge on the supreme
bench in the state of New Hampshire,
one of the foremost men in the state"

THE DRUM or '6i.

~ OWN amid the silent multitude the
IL marching thousands come
- To the marching moduiations OF an
ancient army drum.
To the beat beat. beat Of thousand
loyal feet
And the rumble and the grumbie of
caisson and gun.
At the head a tattered banner futters
proudly In the air,
Borne along by one old veteran with sill
yer grizzled hair
Keeping time with martial feet down the
bunting laden street
To the hum and the thrum OF the drum
of sixty-one.
Comes a picture as / listen to the rhyth-
mical refrain
OF soldier starting warward down q
shady country lane
From afar the echoes come of the old
recruiting drum.
And they speak message to him of
the triumphs to be won.
Louder yet the calling thunder. and his
feet exultant bound
In q patriotic frenzy at the glory of the
sound.
IT'S the cs Of ancient Thor. and he
marches on to war
To the hum and the thrum Of the drum
of sixty-one.
Quick another picture hurries. and see
the battle reek
Where the battery is crashing and the
shrapnel is a-shriek
TIL the earth and heavens rock to the
fury Of the shock
And the rumble and the grumble of
the caisson and the gun.
Oh. the terror of the battle! But above
the song of hell
In barbaric notes that louder DER the dew
astation swell.
Calling martyrs to the death in the cam
mons bitter breath,
Comes the hum and the thrum of the
drum of sixty-one.

The New Jersey Democracy did it,
self proud last Thursday by casting
great majority of preferential votes
for Governor Wilson as the Demo-
cratic candidate for President, and
electing twenty-four of the twenty
eight delegates pledged to him in the
National Convention. The four un-
pledged delegates were eleced in the
county of Essex, and they represent
tha Smith Nugent influence in the
state.
Gloucester .county's vote is practic-
ally unanimous for the Governor, the
vote for the unpledged delegates not
being over two percent. of the total.
We are not at all proud of our

it seems unavoidable because returns

better shape to give the side STREETS
the attention which is needed so badly.
All towns and cities in both Ga. and
Florida are doing their street work this
way and it seems to me to be the only
solution of the problem.
Another important crying need just
now is a good modern hotel. One that
will accommodate visitors from both
north and south. l do not believe that
we should build large hotel, but con-
struct modern fire-proof building with
all conveniences, on some convenient
lot close in where tourists and any one
who has the price can be Accommodated.
All we need now is for our citizens
to get together and push the move
ment through. It will be the best in
vestment that can be made. 1t will
make no difference whether a dollar is
ever paid in dividends or not. 1t will
help all branches of business and we
will be amply repaid in this way.
We now have the best organized po-
lice department that we have ever had.
Blind tigers and law breakers are scarce.
Our fire department is doing excellent
work and with our new water works
system the sum of $40, 900 is being saw
ed yearly in the way of insurance, and
all branches of the city government are
being run at the lowest possible cost.
The earnest cooperation of our citi-
zens is asked to help the administration
in every way they can for the better
ment Of the city.
