NASH CARS BY TRAiNLoAD
C.Iifornia's Greatest Single Shipment Has Arrived.-Ail Records Broken

Two solid trainloads of Nash auto mobiles, the greatest single shipment of motor cars in the history of Cali fornia. have arrived on the Pacific coast. This record breaking shipment was inspired by a demand for Nash cars in California that has exceeded by a wide margin all previous experi- ence of Nash dealers in that section of the country, says Samuel Rosofi, of Rosoff's garage, dealers in Nash cars in this territory.
 The two complete trains consisted of no automobile cars of fifty foot length. There were so cars on one train and 50 cars on the second train, carrying a total of 5l5 Nash automo- piles. The value of these cars, deiiy- cred to buyers on the Pacific coast, totals approximately si.000,000. The cars included in the shipment were the new model Nash Fours and Sizes which since their introduction at the New York show have broken all sell ing records in the history of the Nash Motors Company. Twelve cities in various sections of the country show at this time total of t253 unified re- tail orders for spring delivery and plant extensions, now about compiet- ed. have been made necessary because of the demand.
 The piloting of the two trains from Wisconsin to California is regarded by railroad officials as somewhat of an achievement. Never before in rail- road history has so large single con signment of motor cars been enroute to California at one time.

WOUNDED IN BATTLE
F. H. Converse Had Marrow Esesp~
 From Death.--SAved Himself

F. H. Converse of Quinebaug, Civil War veteran, who recently observed his s0th birthday, served with Com pany n, 18th Regiment, Connecticut Volunteers. On May 15, 1864, dur ing the battle of Newmarket tVa) and while in the act of firing, MT. Converse received wounds from which he has been sufferer ever since,
 His official war record tells of his being wounded, of his remarkable es- cape from being captured, and per haps death. His record reads in part as follows:
 Barely Escaped Death
 Corporal F. II. Converse, Company D. barely escaped being left. fate that he avoided only by his own al- most superhuman exertions. He was severely wounded in the abdomen and forearm. and carried to Mount Jack son, where his wounds were dressed as well as possible under tke circum- stances. He was almost the last to leave the barracks. The chaplain and Surgeon Harrington, in passing through the barracks after nearly all the wounded had been removed, found Converse and assured him that he would be sent for soon, while they passed into other rooms to see if there were others of the Eighteenth still in the barracks. When they returned, Converse was missing. In the mean time he had crawled out of his room unassisted to the roadside and hailed some battery men just passing. who allowed him to get upon one of the boxes, and in this way he rode nll night and thus escaped capture. All were astonished by his cheerful en- durshec and determination not to faii into the hands of the rebels. But he suffered terribly, and Is yet a sufferer from the terrible wounds of that fatal day.

ON The OLD-TIME

VISITS HILLS FIRST
TIME IN A YEARS
"Curley the Scout. Now Merchant,
Looks up Old DeadwOOd Friends.

DEADWOOD, S. D.-After 44-year
absence from Deadwood and the Black
Hills, Martin Mcdonald of Lancaster,
Wis, known to the few old timers left
here as ''Curley the Scout" has re-
turned to his early haunts and has
been spending a week in this city re-
newing old friendships and visiting
the scenes of early years. He motor
ed to the Black Hills with his son-in-
law, DR.. j. c. Doolittle Of Lancaster
In the early Indian days Mr. Nc
Donald came to the Hills on a boat
called "The Far West" from Yanllton
to Pierre and the trip from Pierre to
this city by wagon train took eight
days. On his arrival in Deadwood he
was first introduced to wild Bill" and
other old time celebrities of Dead
wood. During the time he spent IN
this country he was known as Cur
ley the Scout" and according to him
self, few people here ever knew his
right name.
About the only man Mr.. Mcdonald
has been able to find that he knew in
timately in the early days is Mike
Russell, who he declares is looking
we'll and is the same old Mike of form
er days. Away back in 10 he knew
| Frank McGovern, one time owner of
McGovern's hill, where the Home
stake slime plant now stands, and
which for many years was a favorlte
camping ground for the Indians who
made frequent trips to this city dur
| ing federal court week.
| One of the many things which great
| ly impressed Mr.. Mcdonald on his
first view of old Deadwood was the
extension of Main street south from
Lee. In early days there was large
hill starting just at Lee street and ex-
tending south as far as the eye could
see. The hills have been cut away
| and the Main street now goes on up
the gulch to Lead City.
