How Sherman
Pot the Lid On
D
CRING the siege of Atlanta
some of the Confederate bat
teries opposing Sherman on
the west front of the city
were sheltered from nttnek by
mountain which could not readily be
scaled by Federal artillery After long
delay and tedious labor the light Held
pleces of the Eleventh Indiana battery
were hauled to the crest of the moun
tain where the men of the Second
Massachusetts had cut a roadway and
constructed earth and log pits to shield j
tne guns A day was fixed tne earliest
possible to open fire upon the lines
below Sherman General George II
Thomas the tltock of Chlckamauga
Fighting Joe Hooker and General J
M Brannan Thomas chief of artil
lery were on the ground to witness
the effect of the fire which was ex
pected to open the way for a success-

we will not open fire today
fill attack upon Confederate positions
which bullied the advance of Thomas
troops
The time was August and the heavy
stilling atmosphere inclined the men of
both armies to suspend activity The
stillness of death reigned everywhere
except around the jsolated battery on
the mountain top There the gunners
moved with the grim energy of sol
diers facing a crisis Guns were
trained upon the most conspicuous and
vulnerable targets Sherman and his
lieutenants stood apart scanning with
fieldglasses the camps where the shots
were to strike
At last the signal was given Bat
terymen went forward to pull the lan
yards and send the shots home when
attention was diverted by the soft
pealing tones of a bell trembling on
the heavy air across the valley Loud
er and stiil louder the measured
chimes sounded over the city over the
camps up to the mountain crest Sher
man raised a warning linger to gun
ners who looked into the eyes of their
officers for explanation of this strange
gesture The officers equally non
plused looked to the generals and
Sherman spoke out calmly but in
tones for all to hear Gentlemen we
will not open fire today Then turn
ing to the chief of artillery he said in
the same quiet tones General Bran
nan you will open firetomorrow
Today was the Sabbath a day ac
cording to Shermans orders not to be
interrupted by the inferno of guns and
shells Harpers Weekly
Minus tho Picture
The bridge builder with Stonewall
Jacksons army was a rare character if
the following story be true
The Union soldiers retreating from
the valley of Virginia burned a bridge
over the Shenandoah Jackson who
wanted to pursue sent for his old
bridge builder
Sir he said you must keep iron
at work all day and all night and fin
isu that bridge by tomorrow morning
My engineer shall give you the plan
Old Miles saluted and withdrew
Early the next morning the general
sent for Miles again
Well sir said Jackson did the
engineer give you the plan for the
bridge
General said the old man slowly
the bridge is done 1 dont know
whether the picture is or not Uer

Swearing In the Ccok
The darky contrabands who fre
quently strayed within the Union Hues
were often very acceptable as serv
ants particularly as cooks The non
commissioned officers frequently had a
heap of sport with these unsophisticat
ed negroes Occasionally there was
great formality In swearing in these
cooks The drums would be sounded
or the bugles blown and amid much
impressive pomp the darky would as
sume his new duties having sworn to
perform them properly to support the
constitution of all the loyal states
clean the plates without wiping them
on his coat sleeve solemnly swearing
to put milk in the coffee every morn
ing and other like deeds
The Unknown Dead
Now rrany a soldier slumbers
Hi resting place unknown
His hands were crossed his Hds were
closed
The dust was oer him strewn
The drifting soil the moldering leaf
Along the sod were blown
His mound has melted Into earth
His memory lives alone
Uo let It live unfading
The memory of the dead
Long as the pale anemone
Springs where their tears were shed
Or raining in the summers wind
In flakes of burning red
The wild rose sprinkles with Its leaves
The turf where once they bled
Oliver Wendell Holmes
The first food of the day
Every man woman and child begins
the day with more or less vigor of mind
and strength of body according to the
first food supplied to the stomach The
best first dish of the day is a bowl of
Quaker Oats The stomach can assimi
late it more quickly and with less effort
than other foods There is little or no
waste and every ounce of food is con
verted into muscle vigor and brain
activity The strongest people in the
world are the regular eaters of Quaker
Oats You should eat it for breakfast
every day
If you are convenient to the store
youll probably buy the regular size
package For those who live in the
country the large size family package
is more satisfactory
If you want to feol well look well bo
well take Foleys Kidney Remedy It
tones up tho kidnojp mid bladder puri
fios tho bood and restores hoalth and
strength Pleasant lo take and contains
no harmful drugs Why not commence
