AWOKE AMID STACK OF GUNS
Philadelphia Soldier, Captured by Con-

The most surprised man at Apo

known man in this city Judge John
L. Kinsey told about him at the PHI
grims' dinner, says the Philadelphia
Public Ledger.
When Lees army fed from Rich
mond in April, 1865, it was holly pur-

the chase to Appomattox was a fear

crate, and when finally the latter were
overtaken and made to surrender both

Philadelphia soldier was one of d
small body Of Union men captured on
the morning of April 9. They were
SO completely tired out that when TAX

ChanuIno Customs.

A writer in the Washington Post
tells of an old lady who remembered
dining at the White House with Mr..
and Mrs John Quincy Adams. Mr..
Adams ate with his fork, and Mrs.
Adams apologized for it, saying that
he had acquired the habit during his
sojourn in France. Mrs. Adams and
the other guests used their knives,
All this is a comment on changing
manner But it should be noted that
Mr. Adams ate with a four-tined silver
fork, while the other guests had only
two-tined forks, which then were the
common kind. Without the develop
ment of the fuor-tined fork. the habit
of eating with ones knife would not
have been so rapidly discarded. As
between a four-tined fork and knife.
the fork is to be chosen for convent
ence's sake, but as between a two
tined fork and a knife on many occa-
sions the latter would be actually the
more seryiceable.

Used to Freeze Cattle and Sheep for Shipping
to Europe and United States.

frtgorifco is freezing plant in South Amer

send them to the United States
On the Island of TERRA del Fuego, far south
to the jumping-of place sheep get very fat on
the good grass. Incredible 1T may seem, a
short time ago fine fat sheep boiled down
for their tallow. Now a modern frigorifco Is
prepared to kill them and send them north of
the equator. There is another of these newly
erected frigorificos at Rio Gallegos another q
little way up the coast at San Julian, and other
ones are at Bahia Blanca.
These frigorifcos make possible the directing
of great stream of good lamb and mature NUT
ton northward, and we here may expect to see
it come, sooner later. Cattle not killed
at these southern frigorfccs, but farther north.
near Buenos Aires and in Uruguay, are great
establishments that kill chiefly cattle. To facili-
tate the getting of sheep to the frigorif1cos the
government is building the Patagonia state rail-
ways, leading to the interior-Breeders' Gazette.

CAN1pyA HTN.l
AND WAR -
FIRST SHOT AT GETTYSBURG
Honor for Opening Famous Battle
Claimed by Capt. J. {. McCabe,
18th Pennsylvania Cavalry.

Capt. ]. Z. McCabe, 18th Pa. Cav,
claims for his regiment the honor of
opening the battle Of Gettysburg. Blu
ford marched into Gettysburg June
30 and halted in the field near the
Seminary. About 3 o'clock General
Thomas Devon, commanding the Sec
ond brigade, came to the colonel OF
the 18th Pa and ordered him to send
out his men on the different roads to
find any COnfederates who had passed
through the town some days before,
says the National Tribune Co. A, Of
which Comrade McCabe was mem
her, was sent out on the Harrisburg
Pike under command of Lieut.. John
Sweeney. 1t went several miles, when
it ran into the advance of the enemy
coming back. The company fired into
the advance and there was a picket
line put out, with Co. B on the pike
Nothing more happened until the
morning OF July 1, when Hills men
attacked Co. B. which sent back fer
help. The whole of Deven's brigade
was saddled up and rode over the
ridge to form a line on the road, with
the 18th Pa. on the right, where the
reEimental monument now stands, on
the Harrisburg road. The 9Th n. Y.
came next and then the 9Th n. Y. They
ordered to put fresh caps on their
pistols and load their carbines. Soon
Heath's men came out of the woods,
and when they were near enough the
firing began. The enemy was held I'M
til they got too strong, when the bri-
gade fell back to the top of the hill
and dismounted, sending the horses
back. They got behind a stone wall
and held the enemy for long time.
They had been fighting several hours
before Gen. Reynolds came up with
the First Corps and went in on the
left. The line was held until the
Eleventh Corps came up, about L
O'Clock, and went into position on
the right. The regiment then fell
back into the town, with the cavalry
fighting all through the town. There
was enough glory at Gettysburg for
everybody, and veterans should not
claim credit for what belongs to 9th
ers. Capt. McCabe, in the last year
Of the war, was with Sheridan S
scouts, with Maj. H. H Young of Sher-
idan's staff. He had under him so
men in full rebel uniform, and some
Of them were always in Lees lines.
With four of his men he located Lees
supply train at Appomattox Court
House and reported the same to Sheri-
dan. They captured the train and
stores.
