EAGLES AND RAVENS.

"Some White Tailed Eagles were
boasting one day of their bravery"
commenced Daddy. "They were also
saying how fine they were in every
way and that their very name meant
something splendid and free and
strong.
"Now, you know the White Tailed
Eagles are only cousins of the other
Eagles you Children see so many pic
lures of. There are good many fam
lilies of Eagles just as there are many
different Families of Wolves and of
Foxes.
"As n matter of fact, though the
White Tailed Eagles won't admit 1t,
they are less brave than any Of the
Eagles.
"They will pretend that they are per-
fectly able to look after themselves at
all times and that they love battles and
excitement-and that they always, al
ways win.
'And this day that they were boast
Black Raven happened to be flying
near by. The Eagles did not even see
him. for they were SO interested in
talking ABOUT themselves.
"Now, Brother Black Raven is one of
the Raven Generals. He is very brave
and all the other Ravens look up to
him and do just as he says. When he
makes a very curious sound that we
would never understand, the Ravens
know that 1t means:
"Forward! Fly! Follow!'
"And along fly all the Ravens after
Brother Black Raven. Where the 9TH
er Birds and Animals live they do not
know that his name is Brother Black
General Black Raven.
"The Ravens are not kindly at all
and they love to fight. They had often
thought 1t would be great sport to
have those silly White Tailed Eagles
as they called them, admit that they
were not brave and have their leader
beg for mercy from Brother Black
Raven.
"And, as you can imagine. when
Brother Black Raven heard the Eagles
boasting he knew 1t was high time to
begin and frighten them.
$50 he called all the Ravens to-
gether. Some Of them were having
their maps, but rs soon as Brother
Black Raven called them, up they got
in great hurry. spread their wings
and drilled little bit just like Sol
diers. Only instead of marching they
flew.
"And now even the Ravens said Gen
eral.' Along they flew us fast as they
could go, waving their wings in the
air and whispering to themselves and
each other how much they felt like
good battle.
"As General Raven came near the
nest of the White Tailed Eagles, he
said In very queer, croaking sort Of
voice:
"'Good morning.! That was rather

Wounded Union Man Came to Life and
Scared His Company.
Major Samuel A. Losch of Pennsyl-
vania once told the following remark
able episode Of the civil war:
After the charge in the fight ut the
Weldon road, in which his regiment
participated, Aug. 10, 1864, Company
F had but two men left, named Nc
Manus and Kull These men, under
command of Chem Sergeant Losch,
were among those on picket duty dur
ing the night. McManus had gone be-
yond the line and was behind tree
when fash of lightning revealed his
whereabouts to Kull, who, mistaking
him for Confederate, fired and shot
McManus in the head. Kull's mistake
was discovered, and his comrades
body was carried to the rear, covered
with a blanket aud placed on the
ground, a supposed dead Union soldier.
Next morning, while party of the
regiment were seated around the camp
fire discussing bareback and coffee IN
close proximity to McNIanus' body, the
blanket was seen to move, and direct
", to the great CONSERVATION OF the
party, McManus rose up. walked to
the fire and asked for cup OF coffee
After his comrades had recovered them
selves they returned to the fire and &c
commodated the resurrected McManus
He was badly wounded, however, ant
was sent to a hospital. The operation
Of trepanning was performed, and th'

The Flag on Memorial Day.


The following question is asked fire.
Quently:
r. What is the correct way to put out
nag on Memorial day, May 30?
Here is the answer, taken from the
United States army regulations: "On
Memorial day at all army posts and
stations the national flag will be dis
played at half staff from sunrise until
midday. and before noon the band VIII
play a dirge or some appropriate air
At the conclusion of this memorial trib
ute, at noon. the flag will be hoisted
to the top Of the staff and will remain
there until sunset"
On Memorial day or other occasion
when the Gag Is displayed at half stan
on raising the flag 1t should go to the
peak and then be dropped one width OF
the nag. In striking the Gag It should
be always returned to the peak before
retiring.

THE SPIRIT OF
MEMORIAL DAY.

YlWYE are apt to live too much in
~ the world that is and not
" enough in the world that
ought to be; too much in the
world of fact aud not enough in the
world Of Imagination. The facts of
life alone will not satisfy human needs.
They may satisfy dog or a bee, but
they will not satisfy man. Man re-
Quires more than facts in his life.
Along with the facts he must have i'm
agination, must see more than is in
sight, must feel more than the material
things that touch him. He cannot live
by bread alone. He must live good
deal by faith and by memories and in
his hopes. The best and noblest and
most consoling part Of life Is the life
of the spirit. of religion, of the patriot
ism that would die for an idea, of the
integrity that cares for right because 1t
is right and for liberty because in lib
erty the soul of man grows strong and
for order because without it liberty
cannot endure. 1t is this part of life
that Memorial day is ordained to fos-
ter-this immaterial, invaluable, indis-
pensable part of it. Money is useful;
wealth is past labor stored up for fu.
ture use. Men will do much for money.
and they do we'll to be regardful of the
usefulness of wealth. But they will
do more for sentiment, for something
that exists only in the imagination,
only in their hearts. For that they
will turn aside from the creation OF
wealth and will give their substance
and, If need be, their very lives.
It is to preserve this trait in men
that Memorial day is instituted. 1t re-
minds us of our fathers, who gave theil
lives for an idea.-Edward s. Martin
in Youths Companion.

At THE BLOODY ANGLE"
Recalled by Civil War Survivors as q
Very Hot Place.

Recalled by Civil War Survivors as 4
Very Hot Place.
One of the most desperate fights OF
the civil war was that which took
place at the Bloody Angle" on May
IL, 1864. 1t Is Still remembered by the
survivors as probably the hottest place
they ever We're in. General L. A.
Grant, commander of the Vermont
brigade, described the fight at the
dead line" as follows:
"It was not only desperate struggle,
but it was literally hand to hand
fight. Nothing but the piled up logs or
breastworks separated the combatants.
Our men would reach over the logs and
fire into the faces of the enemy, who
would stab over with their bayonets.
Many were shot and stabbed through
the crevices and holes between the
logs. Men mounted the works and
with muskets rapidly handed them
kept up continuous fire until they
were shot down, when others would
take their places and continue the
deadly work.
Several times during the day the
Confederates would show white flag
about the works and when our fire
slackened jump over and surrender.
and others were crowded down to fill
their places. 1t was there that the
| somewhat celebrated tree was cut OF
by bullets-there that the brush and
logs were cut to pieces and whipped
into basket stuff"
General MCGOWAN, who was on the
other side of the trenches leading the
South Carolina brigade, stated in his
report:
"Our men lay on one side Of the
breastwork, the enemy on the other
and in many instances men were
pulled over. The trenches on the right
had to be cleared Of the dead more
than once. An oak tree twenty-five
inches in diameter in rear of the bri
gade was cut down by musket balls
and it fell about IL o'clock Thursda!
night, the 18th, injuring several mel
in the First South Carolina regiment.

Why Take Chance?
When riding on country road,
Near crossing at grade,
You hear distant whistle blow
And know why the sound is made.
All who hear the warning given
Must expect to find
An engine coming down the line,
And q train Of cars behind.
Cant the engineer stop IL?
Why. yes, after while,
But 1t takes little distance.
Say, bout half mile.
Don't give your car more gasoline,
Or whip up your "Old Hoss,"
And take chance of getting hit,
To beat the train across.
For If it ever hits you,
Well-I've only this to say.

Battle Incident Which Led Later to
Restoration Of Sword.
General Keifer, later in congress
from the Springfield (O) district was
one of the last men wounded In the
civil war. He entered the volunteer
army in April, 1861, and served until
after Lees surrender in 1855. In all
that time he received three scratches.
but shortly after the surrender he was
scouting at the head Of small force
of cavalry and came suddenly upon
large force of Confederate cavalry.
There was a skirmish, in which Keifer
was wounded aud in which he would
have been killed had it not been for
the Intervention of the Confederate
commander, who. under the circum-
stances, simply wanted to be let alone.
Keifer returned to camp. had his
wound dressed, reported to headquar-
ters and received special orders and
with re-enforcements started to find
the derelict Confederates. He found
them, and Colonel Tucker, the Confed-
crate commander, surrendered. Keifer
carried fuckers sword home with him.
and it was kept in his library at Spring
field as trophy of the war.
In 1876 Keifer was elected to con.
gress and in 1881 was elected speaker
Among his acquaintances in 1879 was
John Randolph Tucker of Virginia. II
conversation one day Keifer told Tuck
er the story Of the sword. and Tucker
said the officer who surrendered thu
day of the skirmish was undoubtedl!
his brother. This fact being establish
ed, Keifer took the sword to Washing
ton and placed it in the hands Of J
Randolph Tucker, who restored 1t t
its original owner. In after years Gen
eral Keifer became again a member
congress and found the son of j. Ran
dolph Tucker in the fathers seat.
