He had been globe trOtter for many
years. Before he entered the service
Of Commander Peary he made the trip
to China and the orient on a sailing
vessel and was out Of the country for
three years. On his return from this
trip he went TO South America. where
it was so hot they had TO feed the hens
cracked ice TO prevent them from lay
ing hard boiled eggs. Next he entered
the service of Peary and for twenty
years had followed the commanders
fortunes on all his trips to the north
pole and shared with him the hard
ships which its triumphant discovery
entailed.
In 1906 Hugh Lee and himself were
the only men in Peary's party to vol
unteer to stay with him for another
year, and they, with Pesry. made the
famous record trip across the polar ice
IN thirty three days. In the final quest
for the pole they made an average of

Yonkers, n. Y.-At recent meeting
Of the Negro Society For Historical

companied Commander Peary to the

The exercises were held at Sunny

musical program was the part taken
by little Miss Cecile Butler and her

near noon. Our Robinson was pre-
pairing to investigate. Stealthily he
left. And oh, how long. We be-
came greatly concerned about him.
Could it be possible he had met
trouble. We must know. No one
wanted to go. Each complained OF
their stiff and sore limbs, swollen
and bleeding feet. Five twigs were
broken. He who draws the short
one must go. Our dear Meany drew
the prize. The only time | heard a
jesting remark on our trip, when he
remarked: THE Irish always gets
the shortest pull; God bless you.
Farewell.
The night was coming. Great
black clouds were gathering in the
south. The wind began to sway the
trees, large drops of rain beat in
upon our uncovered forms. The song
birds were fitting to and fro with
unusual agitation. The sweeping
wind bcame stronger as the younger
trees were bended nearly to the
ground.
What? Ho, the poor miserable,
creeping, crawling figure struggling
in the storms fury. We watch this
almost inanimate body, at times on
his feet, and then the ground catches
his form. Who and what is it?
There was never a picture of suffer-
ing humanity to equal this. The
history of the dark ages could not
present so pitable a sight of suffer
ing. The most forlorn object to live
and breathe imaginable to the human
mind. But, my readers, it was a
soldier of the Civil war, a hero of the
prison pens of the south, d. G. Ly-
tell, of the S1st Ohio, who would per-
haps never have seen the Tennessee
lines had not a merciful heaven
guided him to our trail.
Here they come, Robinson and
Meany One has a dish pan, the
other a great big pone. Thank God
for Lytell's sake. How we fed him
How we cheered him. How we told
of his long journey of his partner
whose form lies beneath the droop-
ing limbs of a lonely tree, where the
sycamore towers along the deadly
trail OF the escaped prisoner of war.
Again upon the road, through
fields and by-paths, which we read
lily locate from a diagram drawn for
our convenience by our Union friend,
whom Capt. Robinson had happily
met at Mary's home. We were now
very close to the foot of the noun
tains. Already the stars shone down
upon the rock glade. At day brake
We halted midst fields of gloomy
desolation.
From information given our leader
we would soon be in the most
dangerous part of our journey. The
mountains and its passes. Guarded
at different points by Union as we'll
as Confederate bushwhackers. Men
who in these troublesome times, ac-
cording to their belief for or against
the principles of the south, had
banded themselves together, taken
their families to the mountain fast
nesses amidst the rocks, caves and
recesses, and established a fortress
of protection which at times became
scenes of strife unequaled, according
| to their numbers, in the annals of
| the great American conflict.
This great panaroma was now be-
| fore us. Our only way to reach the
| Union lines in Tennessee was
through this narrow and dangerous
path of miles and miles of uncer-
! tainty.

SUGGESTIONS FOR ROD
AND REEL MEN.

Don't take trout under six inches
or more than forty in number in one
day.
Don't trespass on private property,
ask for the privilege.
Don't use explosives, poisons,
guns, spears, snares or loops in
catching trout.
Don't fish for trout in any other
way save by rod, hook and line.
Don't shingle a trout stream, fish
on Sunday or sell trout.
Don't touch trout under size with
dry hands and they will live on be-
ing returned to the water unless
badly injured; otherwise a fungus
growth will appear and kill them.
Don't use hooks for trout that are
less than seven-siXteenths of an inch
from the shank to the barb. Those
hooks will catch six-inch trout,
while the smaller fry will find it
more difficult to take the hook.
Don't throw lighted cigars about
in the woodlands; be careful about
fires; also exercise judgment in re-
placing fence bars and closing gates.
Many of these mo trespassing signs
are the results of anglers damaging
property.
Don't fish a stream fast at this sea-
son of the year. The trout will not
rise as quickly as they will later on
when the leaves shoot forth and the
bugs and flies appear.

To Plant e.Oo0. 900 Trees.

Important reforestation work is
being done by the State Forestry
Commissions nurseries this spring
and it Is expected that when the
shipment of seedlings from the three
establishments are completed that
over 100000 young trees will have
been sent out. The majority of
the trees being shipped are white
pine and the fact that the State has
been able to furnish so many for its
own reserves and to private parties
who agree to take care of them
illustrates the wisdom of the estab-
lishment of the nurseries several
years ago.
The State has three nurseries, one
in Bedford, one in Huntingdon and
one in Tioga with Mont Alto helping
along. They are all on State re-
serves and have proved of great i'm
portannce in the States work in dis
tricts where replanting was neces-
sary TO conserve the water supply.
Last year close to 100000 seed
lings were shipped.

The SearChers.
By Richard ]. Beamisl

BY Richard j. Beamish.
Unweary eyes search all the freezing
waste,
Each drifting stick, each shadow on
a wave
Wakes hope anew, then casts it down
again.
About them, all the gear that saved
their lives;
Yet gladly would they leave it now
to lie beside the well-beloyed
whose last kiss
Remains a deathless holy memory.
Transported out of self, they sit all
day
Entranched by death, each hoping
that the sea,
By some great miracle, would give
her back
The love that, deeply prisoned, still
most near
Means all of life. And so they drift
away
From icy death to dreary death-in-
life.
But everymore their eyes will hold
that scene;
An Arctic 'scape, an ebon-mirrored
sea,
Low-hung gray clouds and endless
misery.

Now that | have deviated so far
from my story, / wish to call your at
tention to the makeup of these men.
In John McElroy's Appomattax Cam

dividual Heroism Randall
14th New York Heavy Artillery,
commends James X. Brady, Co. III,
for capturing stand of colors.
Lieut.. Col. Jas. NJ. Tucker, 57th
Massachusetts, commends Sergt.
Maj. Charles H. Pinkham for captur-
ing a flag of the 57th North Carolina,
and for saving the colors of his regi-
ment from the enemy.
First Sergeant Geo. Adams, Co. G.,
was conspicuously brave, received Is
wounds, and still remained with his
regiment. Capt. John NJ. Dean, 29th
Massachusetts, gives many instances
of stubborn valor by his men. AL
though surprised at the stealthy ad-
vance of the enemy in the darkness,
Lieut.. Nathaniel Burgess refused to
surrender and was mortally wound
ed. Color Sergeant Conrad Homan
refused to surrender his colors and
escaped with them. First Sergeant
A. Harlow refused to surrender and
was killed. Private w. Klinkler de-
Tended the entrance to bomb-proof
and was killed rather than yield.
Preserve Wesgate fought the
enemy with a club until killed at his
post. Fighting to the last, Edward
Carney was caught by the throat and
while struggling against his capture
was dubbed over the head with a
musket, but managed to free himself
and escaped. Charles L. Nightingale
stuck to his post and shot the enemy
who demanded his surrender. The
Bird Maryland captured two stands of
colors, that of the 51st Virginia,
taken by Capt. J. F. Carter, and that
of the 27th Georgia by Patrick Nc
Cam.
James Decker, Co. D, 2O5th Penn
sylvania, Corporal Fulton, Co. B,
2O7th Pennsylvania, and Charles H.
Keust, Co. F, 209th Pennsylvania,
each captured Confederate flags un-
der heroic conditions.
Two Union officers made their
way into Fort Stedman to the guns,
which were double shotted, and pull
ed lanyards. Not only did they fire
the loaded guns, but they reloaded
them and fired, sweeping the outside
of the trenches, filling the ground in
federates. The dense mass of as
sailants made a fine mark for the
deadly canister, and after the battle
the sight inside the works was more
than matched by the corpse-strewn
ground in front.
Such, my readers, were the scenes
that occurred in the different battles
of the Civil war. Nothing was ever
recorded of the thousands whose
great charge and splendid courage
sank with them into unknown
graves.
Such fortitude lifts high the
standard of the American soldier, as
men who dared to do and die in ac-
cord with their convictions, for
which a pension of $1,000 per month
seems but a paltry trifle in recogni-
tion of such heroic sacrifice for union
and liberty.

Suit Brought For Very Large Amount

Charles M. Culver, Esq, district
attorney of Bradford county, Friday
filed papers in Court there commenc-
ing suit for j. Willis Ballard, receiver
of the Keystone Guard, against the

American Surety company bonded
the officers of the keystone Guard.
This suit is to recover on such
bond for the moneys alleged to have
been wrongfully converted by such
officers.

Bear Catches Trout.

Now that the trout fishing season
has opened the first fish story OF the
year comes from a Williamsport re-
porter, who tells the following: "The
other day Frederick Sampsell was
going from Cascade township over
into the Sugar Camp region to cut
timber, when he dipped down into a
deep hollow through which a pretty
little trout stream flows. He saw

what he at first believed was a man
deliberately engaged in yanking fish
out of a pool. Upon closer inspec-
ton, however, he discovered that
the man was not a man, at all,
but a big bear, probably just out of
Information and engaged in his first
spring repast. Then Sampsell watch
ed the old critter for a long time,
and while he looked on the bear
threw out upon the bank at least
four or five trout. He stood in the
pool and just yanked the fish out as
a boy might pollywogs. Then he
would leisurely saunter out on land
and devour his prize, returning to
more catching. Sampsell put the
bears picnic to an end by yelling at
the top of his voice, and bruin
skedaddled in fine style"
