ALLFOR GLORY._ _ FRERZING TO DEATH FOR AN EXPENSIVE MEDAL, San Francizco Chronicle, Last night ina fashionable salcon on Kearney streata souple of distinguish- ed-looking milltiamen were recount ing their numerous campaigus ramento and San Bruoo, when a man with one sleeve empty -lounged wp to the bar, and looked over wistfally st the particalar spot an the shelf oscu- pied by the whisky bottls. The bar- keeper handed over the cherished elix- ir.. The stranger filled_up his glass, and; laid down'a modest dime. which the jewsl-bedecked person behind the bar raked into the vl The display of arrogance by the barkeeper scemed to give the man no uneasinest, and ha reached coolly towards the match- stand with the deliberate purpose of lighting = suspicious looking cigar. Ashe did 50 he tonched the elbow of one of the bullion-bound warriors and at once spologized to the fierce military glare fas upon him. “Beg pardon,” ssid he, “‘but I'm alwagskind of careless when any of the boye-in-blus are ‘round. I used to be one myself.” The warriors in blue snd gold did not deign to respond, but thestranger was not on the slert for any obvious slights. “I lost this arm,” he continued, “‘at Vicksburg. ~And this cough,” he added, as ho shook with a spasm, ‘I gotin the same place.” A MEDAL, _ “Rither a poor recompense, wasn't it" asked one of the militiamen. “Couldn’t you get anything better!” ““Yes,” eaid the wreck of humanity, with a touch of genuine pride; I got this, t00,” and he threw back the lappel of his rasty coat to exhibit a small medal. As be unclasped it and handed it over for inspection he said: I got it for belng the bost dressed soldier In the Thirteenth Army Corps at Milliken’s Bend, before the capture of Vicksburg. I was a fine locking specimen, too.” *T should judge s0,” remarked one of the bullion-bedecked veterana. “Yes, if I turned up at one of your parades the way I looked when I got that medal they wonld have me up be- forea court-martial in fifteen minutes. We had been slashing around Vicks- burg a whole month and for a change had gone up the White river and tak- en Arkansas Post with 5,000 rebs. When we got back to Vicksburg again we were a pretty tough looking crowd. Portion of tho time we were stationed in swampy timber ground that shower used to make a slough of, the fellows locksd as it they were on a blg duck hunt. They were mud all over. The day fore Grant took commiand at Milli. ken's Bond we had orders to fix up for tho cocasion, and it wes given out that the best dressed man in each reg- iment would get a medal. We ail went to work sorubbing and polishing bat it was no use. A fellow couldn’t rub the mud out of hia clothes, and, if he washed it out, the minute t! got half dry they looked as bad as ever. Most of the fellows gave it up forabad job, but I'd made up my mind I was going to get the medal. I had a pretty good uniform, and after I'd sowed it up on the elbowsand tacked the skirt of the coatup, it looked good enough, onlyfor the mud. It was about as good as any other uniform in the corps, but, of course, that wouldn’t amount to nothing; I wanted it to be better. What do you thivk I did?" “‘Bought a new one, T suppose,"said tho barkeeper. HOW HE WON IT. The veteran smiled. ‘I went down and stood up to my chin In the Yazoo for an hour before parade. I'd burnished up all the battons and blackzned my shoes with a plece of burned leather and pork fat, and when I walked up with my wet sait, I just paralyzed the crowd. T looked as if I'd come out of a bandbox when I stuck on my shoes and cap, and throw my musket over my shoulder, and I knew by the way the fellows looked the medal was mine. “‘And you got it 1" ssid one of the militis-men, handing back the trophy. “Yes, I got it, and more too. 1 got the rheumatiz and pnemmonia. *Twas In January, you know, and it set in to blow from the west, and be- fore tho parade was over, I was most froze to death. To finish me, the colonel was 8o tickled with my ap- pearance that 1 was detailed for or- derly duty sl headquarters and had to march around for four houre, until the icicles were hanging out of my elbows and cost-tails, and do you know what Graat eaid after the parale?” “What1” He remarked with considerable feeling, “It's a long time between drinks.” The barkeeper shoved three glasses over the mahogany and the militia- men both put their hands in thelr kets to pay. po?‘Yu, gentlemen,” said the vete- ran, as he wiped his grizzly moustache on his coat_sleeve,and ed; toward the door, “I got the medal, and don’t you ferget it.” T shouldn’t wonder,” sald the bar- keeper, s the veteran flitted through the doorway, *4f that fellow isn’t an eighteen-carat fraud and lost his arm in_a sswmill.” “Yon_do him aninjastice, I assure you,” said a thoughtful but a diapida- ted person bending over the lunch counter. “I rec gnize him an indi- vidual who had a Limb shot off in Vir- ginia City while robbing,a woed-pile.” A FELINE INCUBATOR. A CAT THAT HAS HATCHED TWENTY ONE BROODS OF CHICKEXS. A New York correspondent of The Cinciunatl Eoquirer tells of a cat, owned by Thomas Loenard, a South Brooklyn mason, which Is now sittirg upon a nest of egzs, on Thursday at- ternoon she hatened out two chickens, making the twenty-first bood that she has hatched. The cat is a brindle, and is sbout three yearsold. ~ She had on litter of kittens before she began to hatch chickens, but since sho has usarpad the place of s hen and refured the company of a) otber cats. About two years ago the cat, which is christened Tibby, found a warm resting place in the nest of asetting hen, when the hen had gone to hunt food, and became so fond of it that it refused to surrender it. There was a fight when the hen returned, and the cat was the victor, the hen retiring from the contest with one eye scratched out. The cat warm- ed the eggs every day faithfully, leav- ing the nest ouly for & meal, and soon batched out the chickens. Froth all of the twenty broods, numbaring about fifty chickens,the cat ralsedabout twen- ty-one, The maternal care of the ani- mal exhibited for the chickens was a constant surpriee. She follewed with her eyes the movement of every chick, and when it strayed too far she step softly after it, picked 1t up by the k of the neck and returned it to the company of tte others. In her frolics she tarned upon her back took a chicked between her paws and play- od withit. As soon as one brood of chickens was born she seemed restloss until & new nest of eggs was provided for her At the same time she kept an eye upon the Iast brood, which she warmed benenth her fur at night in the s:ms nest with the eggs. Y | tuted the meal. them ageiuse snother. cat, aud, espe- clally-sgainst a hog. . Her. grown up | chiokens Tibby never failed to ravcg- | nize, and the memory of their feline mcther did not seem to deser: the pullets. She played with cne of ‘her chickens unti’ it was three or four months old, and always seemed to welcome it when it came where stie was kept. In the hatching process sho seems morose uatil she hears the first peop or feels the first throb of 1ife in the shell. Thei she draws the quickened egg to & point in the pest where she can both warm and set, and if the chick in pecking its way through the shell needs any assistance, she helps break its cover- lng with her teath. She has now two chicks a day old, and two that are abont a week old. She hugs them about her in her nest, and if one hops out she steps ‘after it, bears it down with her foot, grasps its neck between Ber toeth and carrles 1t gently back. The cat has been the source’ of copsiderable income to Leonsrd, Tt ia now on exhibltion in & musenm, THE TERRIBLE WINTER. SOME OF THE EXPERIENCES OF SETTLERS NEAR ALTAMONT, DAKOTA—HOME— MADE FLOUR AND FARM MACHINERY o FUEL. Correspondence of the St. Paul Pionecr Press. Axraxoxt, Dakota, April 3.—T do Dot see anything in your paper from any locality near here, concerning 'the severe winter through which we have every reason to hope we have nearly eed. Therels no dlsguising the fact. that it has beon tho most severe of any winter previously witnessed by those_ who have boen here for seven and eight years; but there is no truth in the Story now being circulated east that the peoplo are starving snd freez- ing by hundreds, It is, however, a fact that the settlera are without fuel, or have been until recently. They had _ waited very patiently for the road to be opened, but when blizzard after bliz- zard came_upon us, tho last resourse was the rallroad fence, which was bet- ter than no wood, and at this time the posts are bare of boards; but the company are fortunate In having the posts left. 1f it had not been for the fences thera is no doubt but that the story of freezing would have been true. I understand the company had abandoned the fence to the eettlers, but not until they had taken the fence away. As to starving, as long as the coffee mllls lasts and there is wheat to be had, every farmer will do his own milling. There are instances whero large tamilies are living upon graham groundiaa coffee mill exclusively, having no meat or vegetabies of sny kind. 1 had ocession, a short time ago, to vislt some Scandioavians, and the only way I could find their houvewas Dy seelng a puff of smoke comiag up through » snow bank. When 1 got inside of the house, I found them grinding wheat in a coffes mill, and the cakes from the mesl, together ! the overflow of th Misissippi, they | are only able to-day to furnish 13 per cent.of the required sugar consumption of the couatry; that, in the same po- | | riod (sevenly five years), tha beet- | ugar industry of Earope had started | , up, and were now ‘making about 40 | per cent. of the sugar products of the } i world, i & clime and soil similsr to ours, But nothing could be done in the way of starting the industry uniil it was satisfactorily demonstrated that the beet could be grown with auccess from which sugsr could be extracted at a profit, and he_urged the growing of small Juantities for the purpose of teating the question. Ho said he did not heaitata to assort that, if » favorabie showing could be ‘mads for this peculiar industry, there was no location in this country its equal, and he doubted if its superlor could be found in the world. F. Fallorin Newton Journal. Every farmer should have a kit of tools for the purpose of making re- pairs on the farm and farm machinery. ‘A room or portion of it should be de. voted to keeping tools in; a pin or nail should be _inserted for each to hang on; a hand box should be provided with spartments for different sized nails, and in this box kespthe hammer.

No lights,because there is no kerosine o be had; no vegotables but those that ars frozen. This 15 not the case with all, for some settlers bought last fall a stock of gro- ceries, and those who have money can gt some few groceries at our Altamount store, a godsend to our peeple near here. But those who have no money are ina deplor- able condition. If we do not get spring soon there will be great suff- ering among the stock. Before going to the railroad fence the settlers burned their hay, and the result is the hay is all gone, and none to be got. But if the snow would go off cattle can get to the ground, and where the prairie fires did not burn they can get enough to live on. Bat those who aro depending upon their oxen to do their spring’s work with will find their teams in_ too poor flesh to doany work with, and it Is my opiuion that there will be a great many acres summer-fallowed this season. Nt only will teams bs too thin to do any work, but the people have been obliged to grind the'r seed griin to live on, and have mno mouey to buy any more with. They may bs able to borrow money at ruin- ous rates of interest, which, in my jadgment, will be far worse for them than to let their land lie or seed only as much as they have seed to sow. We have farmers in this locality who last year did considerable breaking, and they will be obliged, many of thom, to buy seeders, they ~having burned their sceders for wood, and all the wood work on their reapers wagon boxes; and, in faet, everythingin the shape of machinery that had any wood sbout it; and if they buy seed they must get along without machinery or get Into debt; and to pay thelr bills will take all they raise, and snother winter will find them as little] p ed to go through it as has this winter. T think this winter bas taught our people a lesson, fhat i, to commence in the spring to prepare for winter. I can find no one in the county who was prepared for this winter; they had made no calculation upon having so severa @ winter as the present one. The snow here is from one to two feet on_ the leve!, but the cuts along the railroad track are even fall, in some places covering the fences entirely. 1 have just learned that ome of our bora has lost some stock from a thought to be yellow waty The cows seem to be the ones sfflicted.

At a meeting of the Muskegon coun- ty horticultural society, held in Mas- kegon on Saturday last, and reported in The Chronlcle, a paper was resd by George to T. Clark, a civil engiaeer now residing thers, on *‘Sugar, or the Peculiarly Favorable Position that Western Michigan, nesr the Lake Coast Offered for the Development of 8 Great Industry.” The object of the paper was to call attention to the cul- tare of the sugar beat for the purpose of sugar-making. ~Mr. Clark showed by meteorological tables that the tem- perature and ralafall along the lake coast imilar to the sogar-beet- growing dittrict of Earops. road from Prof. Winchell’'s pamphlot, entitled, *“The Isothermels Region in North America,” p- port of his position, that the entire eastern coast of Lake Michigan was adapted to the sugar-beet culture, He also quoted various authorities to show that the soil was one o which the beat would flourish. That no location in the country probably possessed so many escentlals required for the suc* cesaful prosecution of an industry as this In the way of chesp transporta- tion, cheap lands, fuel, and fertilizing materials. That, owing to the land being %0 largely unoccupled, com- panies could, as in Earope, occapy large districts, and raise thelr own beets. That the industry would in a very skort time take s prominens po ition among the great industries of the country at such oo‘nts ss were found mest favorable to it. That the great sugar district of the country woald eventually be in the north. He in- stanced the history of the two indus tries—the cane and beet sugar.
