from each ship, commanded by a lieu
tenant, to report to the rendezvous for
an attack on Sumter at 10. o'clock.
This signal was read by the signalman
on board the Confederate ironclad Chi
cora and the information given to the
fort.
The Federal signal code had been
secured by the enemy through a clever
trick. Some months before a Federal
signalman had been captured and i'm
prisoned in Charleston. One day an
other man In Federal uniform was
brought into the prison. He knew
something of the signal code, and these
two passed their time comparing notes.
The second man was an aid on the

edge of Federal signals by studying
the signal flags taken from the wreck
of the ironclad Keokuk. which had
been sunk In the channel during battle
with Sumter in April, and his com.
panion captive little suspected the fact
that he was being duped. What the
aid learned was soon shared with the
Confederate signalman in tn harbor.
Fort Sumter's Men Ready.
After dark on the Sth Fort Sumter
was REINFORCED and the range found
on the channel by the gunners in Fort
Johnson and Fort Moultrie. The Chi
cora was moved from her station and
anchored beside Fort Sumter. The
night was intensely dark. and the gar
rison could see nothing in front of
them, but they were listening intently.
and about II o'clock We're rewarded by
hearing the faint plash of mufied oars
approaching.
When the sound indicated that the
boats were within about 100 yards of
the Chicora she opened fire on them
with grape and canister. This was the

BY Capt. GEORGE L. KILr1ER. Late u. 5. ".
~ URING the night of Sept. 8,
1863, a Federal storming par
ty composed of sailors belong
ing to Admiral j. A. Dahl
green's fleet attempted to surprise and
capture Fort Sumter. For more than
a week the Federal lronclads In the
channel of Charleston harbor and
siege batteries on Morris island had
ground them to mere heaps of dust in
some places. Still the garrison chung
to the ruin. The Confederates evac
uated Battery Wagner and Battery
Gregg on the night of Sept Z, and the
fall OF these works raised the cry in
the besieging army and navy, ION to
Charleston During the 18th the iron
clad Weehawken steamed up toward
the fort to reconnoiter. She grounded
under the fire of the Confederate guns,
and the Patapsco and Lehigh went to
her aid. The Patapsco dashed up to
within 100 yards of Sumter, and the
outlook did not see a soldier nor a gun
on the sea face of the works. On this
front there appeared a breach six feet
In height and eight feet wide Shown
in the photography, caused by heavy
shells striking the spot together.
Whensth report of Captain Thomas
81. Stevens, commander of the Pataps-
co, reached Admiral Dahlgren he de-
cided to send a boat party to storm
the historic pile and selected Stevens
TO lead it. Stevens asked to be excus-
ed, because he didn't believe he could
succeed. Even If the party got inside
the fort through the breach the chan
mel Instructions (which he had met
with on his reconnaissance would pre-
rent warships from getting close
enough to support the garrison and
hold it against the fearful fire the enc
my could pour upon 1t from the bat
teries near at hand.

the fort as well as the channel with
their guns. The admiral refused to ex-
cuse Stevens. and in the course of the
interview said. you'll find nothing
but a corporars guard there to oppose
you" Stevens colleagues finally pre-
vailed upon him to go because the
army was preparing an attack. and If
the navy failed to go in the army
would reap all the glory.
Federal Signals Go Wrong.
Stevens party was formed in two
divisions, one under his own leader
ship and the other commanded by
Lieutenant Francis ]. Higginson Cater
a rear admiral of the navy. Higgin-
sons boats were to move around Fort
Sumter as a feint while the other d.
vision made a direct assault. A tug
hauled the boats up as far rs the chan
mel would allow and then a signal was
given to Higginson to move out on his
errand. The signal was followed by
nearly all the boats in Stevens divi-
sion, and as they could not be recall
ed without alarming the enemy in the
fort the whole column set out ahead Of
time, losing the benefit of Higginson's
effort.
As the boats neared Sumter they
were hailed loudly from the walls, but
made no reply. A rocket shot up into
the air from the parapet and instantly
the harbor was alive with shrieking
projectiles from the batteries all around
the fort. The Confederate garrison
was not only ready, but awaiting the
attack, and the supporting forts, bat
teries and ships were alert.
Dahlgren's decision to attack had
been hastily made. and the order for
the party to assemble had been sent
out by signals from the flagship to the
heet asking for a boatload Of men

of the fort, and the channel and beach
were then exposed in a glare of light.
The garrisons at the several forts
opened fire on the attacking party,
which was in command of Lieutenant
Commander e. P. Williams, who pluck
lily landed his men.
A boat from the Powhatan, com
manded by Williams, and one filled
with marines under Lieutenant Q. II.
Bradford got the lead in the rush. The

son. across the channel, as well as
those on the Chicora showered the
boats and the narrow beach around the
fort with canister and shells.
Hand Grenades and Fire Balls.
The result is described in Lieutenant
Williams report: ''The enemy sunk or
disabled all my boats by shot or by
bricks thrown from the walls. Finding
it impossible to get over the walls, !
ordered the men to shelter themselves
in the holes made by our shells. The
enemy kept up a constant fire on us,
throwing hand grenades, bricks, fire
balls and other missiles among us.
Hoping something might be done
for our relief, I would not surrender,
but some of the men from Lieutenant
Bradford's boat, he having been NOR
tally wounded in landing, surrendered
and were ordered around on the left
to come into the fort. l stopped these
and ordered them under the walls.
Soon finding that / was only losing my
men without gaining anything, on a
consultation with the officers / surren-

Federals In Little Rock.
On Sept. I. after a tedious march
across country from White River. Cen
eral Frederick Steele's Federal column
reached the Arkansas, near Little
Rock. General Sterling I'rice's Con-
federates were ~intrenched to protect
the town. but the Federals avoided d.

3:7-10; 4:l-l1.
The Lords dealings with Israel show
us that justice, love. mercy. loyalty to
God and to principle are In the Divine
estimation the highest qualities, and
their violation the most serious crime.
If we have not looked thus at matters,
it behooves us to change our view
point and to take the A~lmighty's.
This murmuring against the Lord
vas concerning the mama, for which
at first the people had been very hank
full. They allowed their minds to be-
come so veXed that they wept like chill
dren at the thought of the feshpots of
Egypt, and murmured in desiring to re-
turn to the old conditions. Little did
they comprehend the situation. Had
they returned to bondage, ven after
a years freedom. their lot would have
seemed more wretched than before.
Moses Too Greatly Burdened.
The result of this murmuring was
severe upon Moses. He was the peo-
pies representative before the Lord,
and the Lords representative before
the people. Heart-broken, he sought
the Lord, saying that the burden was
too heavy for him to bear.
Then It was that God directed the
institution of the Jewish Sanhedrin-
seventy Elders, to be the court of
judges, responsible to the people, to
deal with and to counsel them. While
Moses remained head of the nation, the
seventy shared his responsibility.
BY Dit+S Raae u
the list of tlles54.d1.5 and requested
them to meet him at the Tabernacle.
All but two came. There God honor
ed Moses as the head of the nation, and
then placed a share Of the responsible
ity upon the 70. This was indicated by
their prophesying. Even the two who
remained in the Camp prophesied.
Quail In Over supply.
God then sent word to Israel through
Moses that he was about to send them
a ~thirty-days' supply of flesh, such as
they had murmured for. Under the
Lords providence, a strong wind drove
thousands of quail to the vicinity of
the Camp. Two days and nights the
people gathered quail.
Agnostics have questioned this state
ment, thinking 1t a declaration that
birds fell in Il solid mass two cubits
high. The proper thought is that the
birds, driven across the sea, were SO
fatigued that they flew low, about two
cubits three feet above the ground,
where they could be easily caught.
The murmurers ate sc heartily that
pestilence broke out among them, a
fever from over-eating, called "a fire
from the Lord" Many died and We're
buried there. The place was called
Kibroth-H attaavah-"Grayes of Greed
mess" Thus the Lord permitted the
unthankful to cut themselves off from
further opportunity for murmuring.
The happiest mental condition con-
ceivable is that which is satisfied with
Gods appointments. The spirit of dis
content looks away from the Heavenly
