them before.
1t was upon this day in '63 that l
lost my leg and did my little part by

Union.
July 2, 1863, broke hot and clear.
Just as in the early hours today a moE

When the house of representatives
recently undertook to name a commit
tee of its members to represent it at
the reunion of the blue and gray at
Gettysburg it was found that not a
veteran of the Civil war sat on the Re-
publican side of that body. The only
Union veterans in the house, three in
number, are all Democrats, and six
veterans Of the Confederate army also
sit on that side. In the senate, how
ever, there are six Confederate veter-
ans on the Democratic side and six
Union veterans on the Republican side.
AS indicating the passage of time, 1t
today in congress more veterans of
the Spanish-American war than of the
Civil war. Nineteen members of the
senate are veterans of the war with
Spain. One member of the house, who
has not seer war service at all, served
five years in the signal corps of the
army as a private, and Delegate
Quezon of the Philippines was a staff
officer under Aguinaldo during the
Philippine rebellion.

The camp Is full of unexpected
meetings. Every day brings forth nu.
nervous meetings between men who
have not een one another for many
years. Many are commonplace, but
some are extraordinary. For in

federates at Peachtree Creek, Ca,
when he was one of Sherman's army
on the celebrated march to the sea
He was being conveyed to the real

union batteries opened fire upon the
party among whom he was a pris.

Munsee was hit and fell, knocking
Munsee down and lying on top of
him.

see lay very still under the uncon-
scious confederate while the battle
ragged around them. That night he
slipped from under the body and es-
| capeQ TO the union lines.
Il thought that fellow was dead
said Munsee, but 1 saw him today.
Poor fellow, his minds bad, and he
didn't recognize me, but l was sure of
him. l couldn't even get his name, but
I'm goin owe later to the Georgia

sands applied every day for missing
articles.
There were at least 100 crutches
piled up in the bureau, dozen or SO ap.
plicants having called for them. Those
who come to redeem their lost
clutches seldom can recognize them
and most Of them go away with some
body else's.
There was one wooden leg also ly-
ing unclaimed. 1t was brought in by
a Boy Scout, who had found it under
a tree.
Several sets of false teeth were
found.

A remarkable coincidence Of the
camp was the meeting of two men of
exactly the same name, coming from
towns of the same name, but in differ.
ent states. One fought on the union
side in the battle Of Gettysburg, and
the other with the confederates.
These two men are John Carson of
Burlington, N. j., and John Carson of
Burlington, N. c..
They met by the merest chance.
The Jersey Carson was walking along
one of the streets, and saw a man in
gray. Just to be friendly, the Jersey
mar stopped him and gave him a
greeting. 1t was not until they had
talked for several minutes that they
discovered their names were identical,
