tack them in the rear Swirling about
/ in circles like the vuIture of war, the
mass of men edges away until the

warm blood bathing my arm, but

behind me. The next moment a rider
less horse dashes up and comes TO a
halt. He has not been hit. but he has
left his rider dead back there in the
stubble, federal captain.
The horse stands paving and snort
ing, when out from the whirl of death
half a mile away breaks a chestnut
charger and comes galloping down
upon us There is blood on the saddle
laps-drops of blood on his shiny
tanks. It is not his blood, but that
of the confederate man who rode him
and who has been cut down by
stroke of the saber
II is gray versus chestnut federal
versus confederate. The newcomer is
still hundred feet away, when the
gray horse rushes at him with ears
laid back and mouth open, and as I
watch them 1 forget that shells are
screaming. bullets whistIing and the
saber doing bloody work within sound
of my voice. AS the two horses come
together they rear up, neigh defiance
at each other and a fight begins
battle within a battle Each seems
imbued with a deadly hatred for the

his antagonist.
OF sudden I realize that they are
close upon me. In their mad fury they
see neither dead nor wounded hear
not the shout and shot OF battle.
The gray kicks a dead man aside as
he backs up for a fresh effort; the
chestnut tramples the life out Of q
wounded man as he dances about.
They will be over me if I do not stop
them The heels of the gray are
throwing dirt into my face as I IN
sling my carbine and rest it across
my dead horse for a shot l IRE at
the gray. as he is the nearer and the
greater menace, but the bullet misses
the target AT that moment they be
gin 10 work TO the left, and in the next
they are past me, leaping over dead
horses and trampling on dead men as
they scream and bite and kick.
Above the roar of battle I hear a
rife shell coming. It gives out
growing, complaining sound which no
man ever hears without a chill. The
sound grows Iouder-nearer-cra
The horses were so feet away, and it
must have struck one of them. There
was a cloud of smoke, a whizzing Of
ragged fragments, and when I could
see again both horses we're down
torn and mangled and almost blotted
off the face of the earth by the awful
,orce of the explosion.

Wade Hampton's dragons were there

The gunners knew what was at

For half an hour their bursting shells
kept the front clear, and We OF the
cavalry cheered them.
Out from the cover of the forest at
half a dozen places gallop the gray
troopers by hundreds. They wheel to

take their distance, close up with
trembling motion. and now there viii

in front of them, among them, but
discipline is stronger than the fear OF
death.

THE GARDEN.


oh. come into the garden, Maud,
And 20 our plants give heed.
I fear our bean vine is a fraud:
u looks more like q weed
The early radishes are late.
They do not seem 20 thrive.
Our onions met a dreadful fate
And very few survive.
on. come into the garden. Maud,
And take a look around
You may see something 10 applaud
Emerging from the ground.
But have disappointed been,
Disgruntled from the first.
think I'll let the chickens in
And let 'em do their worst.
