SOME "REMINISCENCES
OF THE CIVIL WAR DAYS
How the Soldiers Amused Them
selves On Board a
Steamboat.

When General Bragg moved from
the South into Kentucky, he left the
old Orphan Brigade in Mississippi
with orders to follow and join him
in Kentucky by way of Cumberland
Gap. The Brigade moved by way oil
Meridian, Miss; Mobile, Ala, and
Knoxville, Tenn, but left some OF
the boys in Mississippi.
Later a Lieutenant was ordered
to gather all the boys that were able
to do duty, arm them and Join
Bragg's army in Kentucky. The
writer happened to be one OF the
number that was mustered under
the Lieutenant and about 200 of us
pulled out from Jackson. Miss, to
Meridian a-foot.
From Meridian we took the old
M. & o. r. r. for Mobile, and after
some delay We were put aboard OF
a river steamer found for Mont
gomery, Ala. We had scarcely en-

up, some swimming with their noses
lust above the water and so1ne Of

These were the first gators many

armed with Enfield rifles, and had
about 40 rounds of ammunition to
each man, it was a case of johnny,

ing sounded like a heavy skirmish
with the Yanks, but it did not last
long. The Lieutenant ordered

ders forbidding any more of it. The
boys were disappointed, but not dis
couraged. They then proceeded to
fix bayonets and laid down on the
outside guard of the boat and
watched for gator to show up
When he did he got a jab with a
bayonet that made him sink in

dropped his gun, and went over
board. The alarm was sounded, the
boat stopped, yawl launched and
the Reb was hauled in. When ask
ed if he lost his gun he said: Il did

That put an end to that piece OF
fun, and the boys began to look
around for amusement. One OF
them climbed up the guy-rods to the
smokestacks and seated himself on

he was obstructing the view of the
channel and might cause a wreck

Captain to go to that place with a

eth day of May, 1915, at ] a. M.
aged Ga years, months and 20
days.
Mr.. Townsend, the only son of
the late Judge John c. Townsend.
was born on the 18th day of Septem-
Der, 1850, at Hartford, and contin-
ued to reside here until he, with his
family. which at that time consisted
of his wife and four children. NOV
ed to Golden, Union county, ILL.,. in
the year 1882.
When a young man. Ely, as he
was COMMONLY known in Ohio coun-
ty. studied law in the office OF his
father. was admitted to practice law
and did practice in Ohio county un-
til he removed to Illinois. He was
we'll educated, talented and attrac-
tive and as the years rolled by he
lost none of his many likeable quail
tiles. Those of his friends of for
mer years will hear of his death
with sadness and will long remem-
Der the genial disposition of him
who has so recently departed.
Mr.. Townsend was married in
toz- a. NI;eo Noruarot Eliza hpt N
Sutton. daughter of |. C. Sutton, de-
ceased, at her home near Dundee,
Ky. To this union were born seven
children: John c., who died when
lad of 13 years in 1888; Lucy c.,
wife of T. ]. Morton, formerly of

never followed the practice of the
! law, but pursued the occupation OF
I farming and surveying. He knew
where every established cornerstone
/ in Union county was, and his opin-
/ ion was law among the surveyors in
y Illinois. He was elected County
Surveyor of Union county, Illinois
in 1890, and with the exception OF
four years, continuously held that
Office until he died. He loved sur.

that he aspire to any other Office.

as the sun sank behind the western
horizon of Union county's beautiful
hills. which he loved and knew SC
we'll and over which he had so often
tramped with his transit, the body
was lowered to its last resting place
beside his two sons. to await the
summons of the great day, when he
shall know that the needle of the
Compass of Faith has pointed true
and the chain of rectitude and right
has correctly measured from earth
to the Corner Stone Of the Eternal
Kingdom Of God. ~.

DEFEAT OF RUSSIANS
BIG BLOW TO ALLIES
Turkish Minister of War Declares
That Every Indication Is That
Teutons Will Win Struggle.

COnstantinol lie, Aug. 9, via Berlin,
Aug. II, By Wireless to Sayville, N. Y.
THE entente allies have lost the
support of that army which they in
tended to use to crush the forces of
the central powers said Enver Pasha,
the Turkish minister of war, in an
interview today with a correspondent
of the Associated Press, abiding to
the recent fighting in Poland.
II realize that much work yet re-
mains 10 be lo.le.'' continued the war
minister, but with the Russian army
no longer a terrible offensive force,
Turkey and her allies have nothing to
fear.
my opinion is that all talk about
recognizing the Russian army is
about on a par with the speech be-
fore the Duma of the Russian war
minister, who apparently was unaware
that Napoleon's retreat from Moscow
is not likely to be repeated by the
Austro- Germans. A man VINO mag
ines such a thing possible today, with
all the modern means OF transporter
ton and communication, is century
behind time.
"One never knows what the for
tunes of war may bring, but every in
dication now is that our side is sure
to win. Before long the Russian army
will be disposed of long enough to
allow our allies to become active else
where. Meanwhile we are taking care
of the situation here better than be-
fore because we are constantly per-
fecting our organization and increas-
our forces"

MUNICIPAL ICE AGAIN
IN THE LIMELIGHT
Edward Greenstein Claims He Is Short
315 Tons and Threatens Suit
Against New Britain.

Troubles over municipal ice never
seem to end. Edward Greenstein, who
took over the contract after Edgar L.
Rhoades failed to make good with
the water commissioners, is threaten
ms to sue the city for 315 12 tons of
ice which he claims Should have been
delivered him under his contract to
puy 500 tons of the Shuttle Meadow
product. Greenstein was stopped
(r1v from taking more ice. The
order was enforced by Keeper Orcin
Smith, who reported to Water Com
missioner Rossberg that Greenstein's
contract was completed.
Greenstein claims he took the
trouble to have the ice weighed and
has the slips to prove that he never
got within 315 12 tons of what he
bought. Greenstein contracted to pay
$3.50 to Rhoades for the ice. He paid
500 down and brought in a certified
check for $3.50, which was endorsed
by Rhoades, who turned the check
over to Clerk P. j. Egan IN the water
commissioners Office Rhoades also
paid $50 of the 500 he received from
Greenstein, but kept the remaining $50
and to date the city is still out that
much.
Councilman O. F. Curtis, who holds
the belt as an investigator, was chosen
by Water Commissioner Rossberg to
arbitrate the affair, but the astute
councilman would only consent to an
investigation, that being his particular
forte. He investigated enough to dis
cover that the ice in the municipal ice
house is rapidly melting and unless
something is done quickly In the way
Of marketing it nothing more tangible
than thin air and sawdust will be
found for the city's outlay

DENIES FOREIGNERS
s'z ARE ENDANGERED
Cablegram Signed By Carranza, Says
Statement Regarding Vera Cruz
Is False.

Galveston, Tex, Aug. 12.-''The
statement that foreigners in Vera
Cruz are in danger is false. The con-
stitutionalist government guarantees
life and property to individuals of
whatever nationality
The foregoing is the text of cable
gram signed by Gen. Carranza and
received here today from Juan T.
Burns, his consular agent.
Another cablegram from Jesus
Acuna, Carranzista minister of foreign
relations, denies that there have
been any anti-foreign demonstrations
in Vera Cruz but admits that a subur-
banite official made a speech the other
day in which the peace conference
participated in by the United States
and Latin american countries was
sharply criticised. This speech was
denounced by higher officials and was
made without sanction of the Carran-
"a government the dispatches say
Regarding the expulsion of Juan
Ortega, the Guatemalan minister to
Mexico, the report says: 1.-The con-
stitutionalists have never recognized
any diplomats accredited to former
governments. Ortega was expelled
under article 33 as a pernicious for
e1gner. 1t is specifically charged
that he, as an individual, took sides
with the Zapatistas and also that
President Cabrera of Guatemala en-
couraged revolts in Mexico on his
border"
Discussing the departure of the
Brazilian minister, the report merely
says: HE previously had announced
his intention of returning to Rio De
Janeiro because of ill-health."
