Says he: “1 want you, men, who belong tothe regiment of Col. Butler and Col. Fleury to march with unloaded mus- kets and fixed bayonets. [ will lead you myself.”” The river had flooded the swamps waist deep, but when we saw our brave general go forward, we sprong forward and our advance of twenty men at once attached the double palisade, when the red coats shouted in great alarm: “Here comes the d——d rebels, shoot them.” He was instantly knocked on the head, but a terrible fire was opened on us, as we advanced through the swamps. The guns from the fort spattered mud onus as well as dirty water. Their grape and round shot did no damage more than to spatter mud and water on our clothing. About this time our brave general was knocked on the head in the right temple by a sprut ball. 1 ran tohim and instantly raised him up. “March on, Lieutenant Price. Carry me to the fort; I will die at the head of my men.” We bore him forward near the center of the fort; and both com mand met, when the shouts of vic- tory sent the air. Our victory was complete, and was a complete sur- prise to our enemies. We lost sixty men. Joseph Campbell, of Fredricks burg, was killed, also private clown and Richard Clymer, of Philadelphia. He wasa brave Dutchman. I hope Wo. Price. A Législator 100 Years Old. Fredericktown, New Brunswick, Feb. 20.—David Wark has entered upon his one-hundredth year, and claims the distinction of being the oldest living legislator in the world. He is a member of the Canadian sen- ate. The senator has been in public life more than sixty-one years. He entered the New Brunswick legisla- ture from Kent county in 1842, serv- ed eight years as a representative and then sixteen years in the legisla- sive council before becoming a sena- tor. He was at one time receiver N i nator Wark is in good health. He expects to attend next month’s meeting of the senate at Ottawa, although he must travel hundreds of miles to do so. As the advocate of Intercolonial preferential trade in Canada before confederation, the senator—gained much fame, "Murderer Kills Himself. Akron, 0., February 20.—John Barber, murderer of his wife, did not wait for justice to overtake him, but seized a pistol lying on the sheriff's desk and fired a bullet through his own heart. The climax came after a dramatic recital on the witness stand yesterday by Barber’s son of how his father had deliberately shot down his mother during « drunken frenzy. Barber appeared crushed and ask- ed to beallowed to rest in thesheriff's -office on his way back to his cell, and when the sheriff turned his back fora moment he ended his life. They “Shot Up” the Saloons. St. Joseph, Feb. 20.—Three Indians from the White Cloud agency “shot —100 of them—rattling money boxes. John Bull is cold. He lacks the American spirit of giving. He would rather build a battle ship or amonu- ment than put bread in the mouths of the “lower classes.”” He doesn’t like the impudence of “the beggars,” | as he calls them, and wishes they would take their poverty into the back streets and not bother him. In any American City those money boxes would have been filled to over- flowing. Checks and food{and cloth- ing would have been forwarded to the poor, and with the material help would have gone good. wishes and sympathy. It is the American way. In England the jewelers in Pall Mall put up their shutters, because they feared the army, and in that great city of wealth the collectors gathered less than a paltry $500. Some day a situation that gives to the-undeserving the good things of; this world, and lets the deserving starve, will have to be adjusted. ” A hungry man is not always a, patient man. Concert of Powers in Note to Porte. Paris, February 20.—The Russian foreign minister, Count Lamedorf, has communicated to the French government the fact that Russia re- ceived the last of the adherences of the European powers to the joint note to Turkey on the subject of re- forms, thus making the action of the powers unanimous. He accordingly directed M. Zinovief, the Russianam | namens of which it is one of thestwo centers, “The north magnetic pole lies in the northern part of North America, about 2,000 statute miles from the north ‘pole. The south magnetic pole, occu- pying a relative position in the antare- jtie, has never been! reached by man, Capt. Borehgrevinck having been no nekrer than 220 miles, So many obsta- cles lie in the way of reachingthenorth pole that the feat is not likely to be jsoon performed, Many efforts during jthe past century- and notably during | the past 25 years—failed, though man’s approach to the northern terminaton of the axis of our earth has been nar- ‘rowed down to a matter of 239 miles, “The Ziegler expedition of 1901-1902 was a wretched failure, and arctic stu- \dents are not optimistic as to the re- | sults of the forthcoming effort. Mr. ' Ziegler provides the funds with splen- did generosity, but his agents dissipate them upon the mistaken principle that eluborateness of outfit spells succe “The truth is, attainment of the north pole is a matter of men, not of money. Of course the tools of the trade must be employed—a ship, dogs, isledges, special food, ete.—but beyond that the prime elements are the knowl- edge gained by actual experience, spe- cial adaptation of means to the end in view, muscle, pluck and luck. As a rule, the simpler the outfit the better. That stern friend of knowledge, Sir John Banon, said: ‘The north pole is the only place in the world we know nothing about, and that stain of ig- norance should be removed from this enlightened age.’ “Having made a special, practical field study of the art of arctic travel, l assert that I know how the north pole can be reached, and this informa- tion I will willingly give anyone who will utilize it in advancing the frontier of knowledge to the oni conten of the unknown region of the north.” bassador at Constantinople, to pro | AMERICAN SOCIETY PROSPERS. ceed with Baron von Calice, the Aus | trian ambassador, to the sultan anu Women’s Organization in London Is present the note.

Rome, Feb. 19.—The Chamber of Deputies debated the military esti- mates. Inthe course of the discus- sion reference was made to thedefeat of the Italian fleet _by 1 fleet at Lissa in 1866, and Vice Ad- miral Morin, minister of marine, said: “We have worked thirty-six years preparing for the day of trial.” This remark caused a sensation, the members of the left shouting, “Do you want war?” “Yes, we want war,” retorted the deputies of the center. Minister Morin continued then while Italy did not waft war, she was prepared.

The presentation was delivered by {Cardinal Rosphegi, pope’s vicar and president of the committee which was | appointed to make arrangements for | the celebration of to-day’s anniver- ‘sary. Cardinal Rosphegi also pre- sented to the pope the golden keys which are symbolic of pontifical au- thority. The Vatican hall was splen- \didly draped for the occasion. The pope after entering the hall on ‘an invalid’s chair, was borne to the throne on the shoulders of the mem- | bers of the guard amid the waving of peacock fans, A large number of cardinals and other prelates of the | Roman Catholic church and sohdiers were present. Simultaneous with Cardinal Rampolla, papal secretary of the state, conducted solemn thankegiving service in St. Peter's Cathedral. Twenty thousand per- sone were in attendance there. In replying to congratulations His Holiness said: “These last fetes of my jubilee open auspiciously and please God may they close the same way.” The pope maintained his strength wonderfully. Throughout thelong ceremony “Viva II Papa Re” rang out through the audience. His Holiness on reuching his apért- ment after the exercises appeared to be suffering a little from fatigue and exclaimed: “This is really the happiest day of my life.” C6 UL This signature is on every box of the genuine Laxative Bromo-Quinine Tabies the remedy the! cn--+# a eet in ome Gay Broom Corn Combine Forming.
