War Seen in little XQt1k'
Heroine Crosses Field of Battle Under Flag of Truce
Reach Wounded brother

The story brings Miss Gish, in the
maid, to the scene of a terrific battle.
Her brother, a Union officer has been
wounded and captured by the Confed-
crate troops and is lying at the point
of death. inside the Confederate lines.
The girl appeals to the commander
of the Union forces, who agrees to try
to arrange a truce with the Confed-
crate general so that the girl may go
to the side of her brother. Negotiations
ensue. and the Confederate general
consents.
Dipping the flag is the signal agreed
upon for a cessation of firing, and the
girl is then escorted from the northern
to the Confederate lines, after which
the fighting is resumed.
The original incident is said to have
eral Sherman and General Hood were
locked in n grip of death just previous
to Shcrmans famous march to the sea.

ground in Kentucky. becomes the
sweetheart of ~ Confederate officer.
She is loved by Union officer, and
both she and this northern sutton find
their way Into the Confederate lines,

wounded brother. The complications
that ensue come very near to costing
the young Confederate his life. but the
girls strategy saves them both. There

best roles in which she has yet ap-

THE END.
The State of WestsyIvania.

The province and government of
W~estsylvania'' was a proposal made by
the settlers In the southwest of Penn
sylvania and the adjacent territory for
the creation of a new state. It~origi-
mated in connection with the troubles
between Virginia and Pennsylvania,
and the scheme was brought forward
early in July, 1776. A description of
the proposed government defines the
bounds as beginning at the eastern
branch of the Ohio opposite the mouth
of the Scioto and running thence in a
direct line to the Owasioto pass, thence
to the top of the Allegheny mountains,
thence with the top of the said noun
tains to the northern limits of the pur-
chase made from the Indians in 176S at
the treaty Of Fort Stanwix, thence
with the said limits to the Allegheny OF
Ohio river and then down the said
river as purchased from the said In
dams at the aforesaid treaty Of Fort
Stanwix at the beginning" A call fol-
a convention to organize the govern
ment was issued, but a memorial of
the Virginia committee of West Au-
gusta county to the lower house Of as
sembly led to the abandonment of the
plan.-Philadelphia Press.

London's Crystal Palace.

Crystal palace was originally built
in Hyde park for the great exhibition
of 1851, being afterward removed to
it's present site and regretted. At
the first state opening of the palace by
Queen Victoria it was urged that the
usual artillery salute should not be
fred, the reason given being that the
conclusion would SILVER the glass roof
and the company assembled below, in
Guiding her majesty, would be cut into
mincemeat. Dire were the predictions
Of the scaremongers when the design
for the palace was made public. The
first gale, they said, would inevitably
wreck it, while the heat ~engendered by
the sun pouring its rays upon the
domed glass roof would be so terrific
that no human being could Withstand
It. Consequently If they escaped an
avalanche of glass they would be roast
ed to death inside the case.

Bed Cross emblem. On tho toTMof each
of the cars in this train there was a
Red Cross big enough to be een from
miles in the air. The German aviators
accepted them merely as excellent tar
gets. Their bombs quickly knocked
three or four cars from the rails and
killed several of the helplessly wound
ed men. The rest of the patients, weak
and nervous from recent shock and In
jury, some Of them half delirious and
nearly all of them absolutely helpless
and in pain, were thrown into near
panic.
Two of the nursing sisters in charge
Of the train were the coolest individ-
uals present. They walked calmly up
and down its length, urging the pa
tents to remain quiet, directing the
male attendants how to remove the
wounded men safely from the wrecked
cars and paying no attention whatever
to the bombs which were still explod-
ing ear the train. 1 did not have the
privilege of witnessing this scene my
self, but / know that I have accurate
ly described 1t, for the details were
told in an official report when the king
decorated the two sisters with the Roy
al Red Cross for valor In the face of

The trip from Contay to Rouen was
a nightmare-twenty-six hours travel
ing 100 miles on a train which was
forever stopping and starting, its jerky
and uncertain progress meaning to us
just hours and hours of suffering. 1 do
not know whether this part of the sys-
TEN for the removal of wounded has
been improved now. Then, its incon-
veniences and imperfections must have
been inevitable, for in every way after

care was shown us. In the long rows

selves in what seemed like paradise.

cial ward for leg wounds / was lifted
from the stretcher on which 1 had trav-
eled all the way from Poizers into a
comfortable bed with fresh, clean
sheets, and instantly l found myself
surrounded with quiet, trained, eff
Gent care. 1 forgot the pain of my
wounds and the dread of the coming
operation when a tray of delicious food
was placed beside my bed and a nurse
prepared me for the enjoyment of it
by bathing my face and hands with
scented water.
On the following morning my leg
was X rayed and photographed. Itold

that way. In the afternoon l got my

deposits, for they only got five or six
