Seite jt oe Two Soldier's at Gettysburg. The armies they had ceased to fight, The night was still and dark, And many thousands en tne field Were lying stiff and stark The stretcher men had come along And gathered all they could: ‘A hundred surgeons worked that night Behind the clump of wood. ‘They flashed the lanterns in my face, ‘As they were hurrying by; ‘The sergeant looked and said, “He's dead,’” And I made no repiy. The bullet nad gone through my breast; No wonder I was still; Bat once will [ be nearer death ‘Than when upon that bill A gray-clad picket came along Upon his midnight beat; Me came s0 near me that I tried ‘Vo move and touch his feet. At once he bent and touched my breast, Where life still fought at bay; No one who loved me could have done More than this man in gray. O’er me, all chilled with Diood and dew, His blanket soft he apread; A crimson sheaf of wheat he brought, A pillow for my head Then knelt beside me for an hour And bathed my lips and brow; But for the man who was my foe I'd not be living now. ‘Then as the coming daylight shone He bent his lips to say “'God spare you, brother, though you wear The blue, and 1 the gray!” The sounds of war are silent now; We call no man oar foe; But soldiers’ hearts cannot forget The scenes of long ago. Dear are those who stood with us, To struggle or to die; No one can oftener breathe their names Or love them more than I. But from my life 1’d give a year That gray-clad man to see: To clasp in loye the foeman’s hand Who saved my life to me. —Isaac F. Eaton. ON MEMORIAL DAY. We Strew Heroes Graves With Flowers. Some of the Great Figures in the Civil War and Where They Rest— Some Notable Tombstones, Gifts of a Grateful Nation, On decoration day, as on no other day of the year, our hearts go out to those who met their fate while the cannon was booming in their ears and rifle barrels were hot. Ev- ery battle has its story of heroism; every veteran to day can tell of some comrade who was killed with his face to the foe; of some officer whe, rushing at the head of his meu, en- treating them not to falter, fel!, and in falling did all he could do for his country’s cause. In the days of 1860-1861 the United States senate witnessed many scenes which are now historic- al. The members from the north saw their southern colleagues one by one leave their seats to raise war against the flag which was not yet a century old. The climax came when Edward Dickinson Baker, “the Bald Eagle of the Rockies,’ then a sena tor from Oregon, strode into cham- ber, dressed in the uniform of a fed- eral culonel, and laying the sword which he had won at Buena Vista upon his desk, declared to his dis- tinguished audience; “The majesty of tbe people is here to day to sustain the majesty of the constitution, and I comea wanderer from the far Pacifje, to re cord my oath with yours of the east.” He had toile to resign his place in the senate; talay aside the mantle of the legislator for the uniform of the soldier. For two hours at Ball's Bluff his California regiment with- stood the galling fire of the enemy concealed in the woods, every mo ment recording its murders. Retreat he thought impossible, of surrender front of the column, he led his soldiers up he did not dream. Far in | fate at the hands of an enraged fed- jeral private. | Ttis the testimony of Gen. Meade {himself that a lieutenant did more |than any one else under his com jmand to bring about the splendid j victory at Gettysburg. Never had ‘such a scene as Pickett’s charge ‘been witnessed before, save when |Massena wedged his troops between | the Austrian lines at Wagram. The ‘union line was faltering and Lieut. Fravklin Haskell of the thirty sixth to Meade to On his way he took ander bis own charge a great Wisconsin was sent bring re enforcements | mass of troops and made the move ment at the proper moment that {turned back the terrific charge. For |the gallant work he was made a col ‘onel, and congress was preparing to |grant him a star whea he fell in the thickest of the fighting at Cold Har- bor. “He was worthy of better discip- lined troops and a better fate,” said |Gen. Butler when he heard of Col. Roberts’ fate at Baton Rouge. Rob- erts was in command of the Seventh Vermont, which lost its courage at the approach of the enemy and be- gan to retreat. He was shot dead while, with tears running down his cheeks, he begged his men to stand their ground Gen. Reno, who led the union forces at South Mountain Gap, was killed while urging his men forward. The wassacre at Fort Pillow will never be forgotten. Major Booth was shot dead there while endeavor- ing to rouse to action the 300 ne- groes aud white men who composed his motley company and received no quarter from their victors. He fought as heroically uutil a bullet brought him to the earth. Gen. McPherson was the idol of his soldiers. He was a man of princely bearing, the noblest senti- ments and a personal courage which never failed him. Gen. Grant said that he respected him for “all of the many virtues that can adorn a com- mander.” Had he lived he would undoubtedly have ranked in the hearts of the people along with Graut, Sherman and Sheridan. After continuously exposing himself to the fire of the enemy for three years it remained for him to be the target of a sharpshooter while riding outside the works The bravery of Gen. James S. Wadsworth, who knew not the meaning of fear, finally cost him his life He fell during the terrible fight in the Wilderness on the same day that Gen. Robert E. Lee threw himself at the head of Groeg’s Tex- ans to charge, and they. brave men, refused to move a step until he had withdrawn to the rear, when they rent the air with their blood curdling yell and bore down upon the oppos released from bondage.

Man does not engage in such ja variety of employments as he used |to, but accomplishes more because his energies are concentrated in oue direction He realizes the fact that he must now content himself with playing one part in the great drama of life. The lawyer, doctor and merchant are no longer one and the same person, and those who have made themselves famous during the last decade have scught to excel in but one direction. The legal pro fession has grown to such immense | proportions that one special branch is more than sufficient to occupy one The corporation lawyer, the patent lawyer and the criminal law- yer each find in their specialty more than they can master, and thus it is with the medical profession. The dentist finds cases in his profession that challenge his greatest skill, and his field of research is wider than that formerly occupied by the doc tor who was supposed to know all about the human system, and pulled teeth merely as a pastime. In no other profession has close attention to one particular brauch brought such satisfactory results as iu the practice of medicine. Hundreds of minds are now at work in a hundred different chanaels of rescarch, and the results are most satisfactory. Diseases that were considered incur- able a short time ago are now suc cessfully treated by new and improv ed methods, and the most-wonderful results have been obtained by the specialists. This accounts for the rema:kable cures that Dr. Henderson of Kansas City, Mo., is effecting in his line of specialties.
