with the distance half covered. The
|Confederate position was well protecs-

impossible.
At this moment word reached Col

Colonel Ma1mborg laughed and DIS
patched the boy with orders TO seek
General Sherman and tell him thas
the Fifty-tifth needed ammunition IN
hurry. and they then had to have
Efifty-four calibre cartridges.
Almost before the CoIone1 had M
ished his instructions the boy was OF
at top speed. The battle line was sew
eral miles long and no one appeared
to know exactly where the general
was. While crossing between tvs
sections, the boy was sighted by 3

heshy part of his leg. Not hating 70
bind up the wound, the boy raced on
until he finally located General Sner-
man and repeated his message word
for word, fainting from loss Of blooc
az he finished. The cartridges were
rushed to the Fift-hfth and the reg
iment was saved.
A few years later Howe was decor
ated with the medal of honor for re-
Einarkable bravery on the held of DaS-
tie at Vicksburg.''

Huge Losses.
In this connection 1t is interesting
to note the huge losses sustained by
the armies of the Civil war in COM
parison to other conflicts. The Third
lWestphalian regiment at Mars "a
Tour lost 40 per cent IN killed ana
lwounded; 46 per cent of the Garde
lSchutzen were killed by the French
at Metz; 81 per cent Of the fmmortas
Night brigade were killed or wounded
at Balaklava. None of these regi-
ments- the heaviest losers upon Eu-
lropean battle fields prior to the pres
tent Warlost half their men.
In tn northern army. during the
| Civil war, no less than seventy regf-
ments lost more than ntty per cent
killed and wounded during a single
engagement. 1t has been figured that
in more than $50 regiments of the
federal army a greater loss was sus-
tanned than that of the Light Brigade
/ at Balak1ava.
Some of the deeds of bravery dur
| ing the Civil war, for which medals of
honor were awarded, seem almost I'M
believabie. The exploit OF the ave
Union soldiers who carried their cam
non UP to the very walls of the fort.-
lfcations at vicksburg, thrust the
mouth~of the piece into the embra5-
| Ore and fired it point blank into the
midst of the Confederate defenders
reads like chaptersfro '"The Three
Guardsmen.' But the annals of the
war department bear testimony to It's
truth, and the fact thar ne i've meE
escaped with their lives.
In Other Wars.
Not all the medals OF honor have
been awarded for bravery during the
Civil war, however. The Indian
nights, which took place IN the sew
enties, the engagements OF the Span
ish- American war and the hghting n
the Philippines all produced their
snare OF awards for bravery.

Roland A. Nichols is a wonderful
man on the platform or anywhere else
that YOU can meet with him. But it
is impossible for writeup to convey
a proper idea Of such man. for it is
this very fact that he can reach the
heart and mind of a man in way
that others cannot that makes him
get the crowds-and the money.
Nichols has an all-powering per-
s-nality backed up by physique that
most every man can envy. Along
with this magnetic personality he
has a sympathetic voice. a broad,
kindly and optimistic outlook in life,
ard he has the punch"
No use to try to tell about his lee
ture or how he will thrill anI stir
the soul and reach the minds and
hearts Of his hearers. Just rernem-
Der this. that he is pronounced one
Of the masters Of the lecture plat
form by discriminating chautauqua
and lyceum audiences in the east.
This is his first lectuer trip in the
west and you don't want to miss
| hearing him when he comes to as
sembly.

NLexlcan Railway Cut.

NOGALES, June 22.-All comTun-
lcation between here and Guaymas
was again severed and it was reported
here that the southern Pacific de
Mexico had withdrawn all trains
south Of Empalme, in which case 1t
would be impossible to get relief to
the valley settlers except by the land
ing Of marines at Tobari bay.
With communications cut between
the valley and the coast there is no
way by which Admiral Howard can
ascertain conditions and determine
whether it would be necessary to
land his marines.
