Good Reason Why Confederate Com.

Prisoners Escape.

When. at Gaines Mill in 1862, the
9Th Texas captured two whole regi-
ments Of Union soldiers, the Texans
were all very proud of their achieve
ment. One of them has described an
amusing scene IA connection with the
surrender
When the Union Officers gave up
their swords to Col. Upton, they were
SO prompt in the duty that he was
compelled to lay down the frying pan
which he carried in the place OF
sword and hold the weapons presented
in his arms.
just then he noticed a commotion at
the far end of the captured regiments.
That was near the timber, and a squad
OF the prisoners were making an eff.
fort to pass by big John" Ferris of
Company B, who stood there unaided,
endeavoring to intercept them.
Springing upon log, the armful of
swords dangling about in every direc-
ton, Upton shouted;
John Ferris. what are you trying to
do now?'
Il am trying to keep these fellows
from escaping" yelled Big John.
LET them go. you fool!" shouted
back Upton. WED rather fight than
feed them!"

The institution of the summer serv-

rage left Londonderry in the evening
at 4;40 instead of 1850, and when the
mother thrush, who had presumably
been on a foraging expedition, re-
turned, she found carriage, nest and
eggs had disappeared She was no

Limavady of the circumstances and

SUGGESTIONS FOR ICE TRUST
Just Few Reasons Why There
Should Be an Advance in Price
of Summer Necessity.

The ice trust having offered silver
lovingcup for the best excuse which
might be invented for raising the
price of ice after the cold winter, we
hopefully submit the following:
/. The ice being so thick and heavy,
1t costs more to handle it.
q The blocks are so large that there
is great waste in cutting them up for
the retail trade
8. The ice is so cold it freezes solid
in the storage houses and is very diff
cult to get out.
4. As the winter has been 80 cold,
the summer will necessarily be very
hot, and the demand for ice very
great, so that It is doubtful If there
will be enough to go around.
3. The ice being extra thick. extra
cold, and extra quality all through, it
is only proper that an extra price
should be demanded.
6. The price of ice never had any
relation to the cost OF production, any.

WAS A BASEBALL FAN
PRESIDENT LINCOLN "RooTEDn
AT GAME IN 1862.
Watched Soldiers Play During Civil
War and compimented Yhem-
Army Men Responsible for
Popularity of Game.

me recent appearance of King
George of England at a baseball game,
In glass-fronted, steam-heated private
stand reminds Lee of the time,
in 1862. when saw President Lincoln
at baseball game in Washington"
said Winfield Scott Larner, former
Journalist, now of the st. Louis Office
United States customs service, on the
return OF the Giants-White Sox world
tourists recently.
1T was at Sixth and K streets. The
quartermasters department was play
ing the commissary department. The
civil war, you know, introduced base
bal! to people from all parts of the
United States and spread its populari-
ty north, south and west. Previous
to the war baseball was restricted to
the East.
This lot was an old circus grounds.
The game was progressing merrily.
There were no stands. Ropes kept the
crowd back
The well-known black carriage
drawn by two black horses came along.
saw the president get out of the con-
veyance and, taking his little son, Tad,
by the hand, walk over to see the
game. This was before the days when
cavalry escorts accompanied Mr.. Lin
coin wherever he went.
There was no inclosed stand, not
even seat. Unobtrusiyely and unseen
by the crowd, Mr.. Lincoln sat down
in the sawdust left by the circus back
of first base. crossed his feet, and sat
his little son up on them, between his
knees.
He arrived when the game was
young and stayed to the finish II was
the custom then for the teams to give
three cheers for each other after the
game was finished. The custom was
observed on this occasion.
Lincoln took off his hat and joined
in the cheering. Then some one saw
him and called for Three cheers for
Old Abe. Needless to say, they we're
very heartily given
The president thanked the crowd,
saying, Boys, it was a very good game,
and enjoyed it very much He took
little Tad by the hand and walked
back to his carriage.
Il have heard that Mr.. Lincoln
played a good first base do not think
he ever played baseball. It was I'M
known in Illinois when he was a young
man. Indeed, as | have said, the war
spread baseball. The soldiers from
New England and New York brought
1t to the camps and taught it to the
soldiers from other states. These sol
diers took it back to their homes after
the war, and then baseball BEGAN the
national game.
But President Lincoln did like base
ball"
