On April 10 , 1E02 , the tlnlly journals
throuRbout the loyal states of the north con
tained dispatches from Fort Henry elvltiR
the first general Intelligence of the two days'
battle nt I'ittaburg LnndltiK , Thcso dls-
Hatches , puhlUhcd llrst In "uxtras , " created
the inoit Intense excitement among all
classes. Hullctln boards \vero ovcrywhoro
besieged , telegraph stations loleajrured by
anxious Inquirers for Information. The unsatisfactory -
( satisfactory character of the llrst reports and
the exaggerated statements of the losses on
the titilon sldo combined to create the most
harrowing suspense. The army engaged was
composed almost entirely of western troops ,
the stairs of Ohio , Indiana. Illinois , Michi
gan , Wisconsin , Iowa nnd Nebraska con
tributing thu men who followed the stars and
strlpos
The battle of PlttslmrR Landing , or Khlloh ,
ns it Is more generally referred to. was one
of the most Important in the parly history of
the war The series of splendid union vic
tories which had resulted in the capture efForts
Forts Ili'nrv and Donolson , and the occupa
tion of Memphis nnd Nashville , had thrown
consternation Into the ranks of the rebel
loaders , nnd unless tlio advances of
Grant and Hucll could bo chocked the
confederacy was in danger of receiving a
death bint hoforo 1U cntiro w.\r resources
could bo called Into requisition. Realizing
this fact the confederate government throw n
mighty nrmy directly in the pathway of
Uuell and Grant to contest their further pro
gress with desperation. Albert Kidney John
ston was placed over ttio rebel hosts , with
Itraurcgurd second In command. Msmassas
nnd Contervlllo were ovnctmted and the lines
drawn moro closely around Richmond in
order to allow heavy detachments to Join
Johnston and lioauregurd. ISi-aftf was ro-
'
railed from I'cnsncola with his 'well-drilled
divisions of nvtillory nnd infantry. The divi
sions of Pillow and Fl .yd were recruited utid
ro-oquippod. lihhop folk's division was
brought into line , Van Dorn's forces brought
from Arkansas , aud Governor Jackson's corps
recalled from its vain nnd unprofitable career
west oft ho Mississippi. Moio than this , the
confederacy lesortod to impressment anil the
dr.ift to force men into the ranks. Six weeks
were spent in the preparntionsfor the deci
sive battle which was to determine the fate
of the coi'icdoracy in the west.
The movements looking to the final dispo
sition of troops on both sides began late in
March. On Friday and Saturday ( April !
and ft i sovornl sltfrmlslips bejuoan the ad
vance pickets warned the union generals
that their further progress was likely to be
Boon disputed by a general engagement.
Early Sunday morning ( April 0) ) the union
pickets were driven In , and ut 8 o'clock the
glistening bayonets of heavy masses of rebel
Infantry appeared on the Hold , and the great
nnd long-looliod-for battle was at tiand.
The battle of Shiloh lasted for two entire
clays , but as it is the purpose of this article
to record thu gnallnnt part taken by the
First Nebraska regiment of infantry , the
first day's light will not bo considered , for
the obvious reason that , by an unfortunate
'
circumstance entirely boyon'd the control of
the commanding ofllcora , the regiment did
not nrrivo upon the Hold until Sunday evenIng -
Ing , after hostilities bad been tuspemlcd for
the day.
After the battle ol Fort Donelson , in which
the First Nebraska distinguished itself in so
rIgnnl n manner , the regiment remained In
camp nt Fort Henry until March II. The
troops were then conveyed by steamer to
Landing , Toini. , xvhere they disembarked
March 17. They wont into camp near the
landing until April ti , when they were
marched with all possible haste to I'lttsburg
landing , where the battle of Shiloti was in
progress.
Karly in the morning of April 0 , Colonel
Thayer heard the sounds of heavy cannonad
ing in the direction of 1'ittsburg. and before
any orders to that oltcct had been received ,
placed ttio First Nebraska in preparation
for a forced march , nnd anxiously waited the
word to advance. The word was
soon received and the regiment
put ( n motion. Owing to n mistake
of the guldo furnished by General Low Wal
lace , the Nebraska troops did not arrive upon
the battlefield until dark , too latu to partici
pate in the dp-tporatoflgbtltii , ' on the first day.
That direful Sunday night , while both armies ,
exhausted by the contentious of the day , were
recuperating their strength for u renewal of
hostilities on the morrow , the Noura'-ka boys
blvouacod In order of battle , with their arms
In their bands. A torrllle thunder storm beat
upon them nil night nnd their clothing was
drenched with the rain which fell in tononts.
In the battle of Monday , April T , Colonel
Thayer commanded a brmndu composed of
the First Nebraska , Twenty-third Indiana ,
Fifty-eighth Ohio , and Thompson's Indiana
battery of artillery , tt will btr romcjnbered
by the tenders of n previous article in THE
HUB that Colonel Thayor's brltnulo would
have led the second day's nsHiiult on Fort
Donelson , hail not the icbcl General lUick-
near discreetly displayed the white flag and
surrendered. By u similar piece of good
fortune , Colonel Thayer's brigade opened the
second day at Shlioh. The fact that the
First Nebraska led oft In tlio mighty drama
enacted on the field of Shiloh on April 7.
will bo ever remembered with n thrill of
pride by every true ciUzcn of the state.
The First Nebraska , with Thayer's brigade ,
was posted In the open piece of ground In
front of General Low Wallace's division , on
the federal right. The ground In front of
the regiment , descended into n deep ravine ,
beyond which was a high blurt or hill , At
the crest of this hill wus planted a formidable
battery of rebel artillery , behind .vhich the
rebel infantry was resting In strong forco.
The lighting of the day commenced at this
i > oint by a mngnllicout artillery
duel between Thompson's battery ol
Colonel Thayer's brigade , nnd tho'robol
on the opposite heights , The First Nebraska
supported Thompson's battery on the loft ,
With the Twenty-third Indiana on Its right
and the Fifty-eighth Ohio immediately behind -
hind them both. The guns In Thompson's
battery worn so effectively bundled that tlio
rebel artillery was siloncod. I'ovcuiving this
fact , I ow Wallace Instantly determined to
follow uo his temporary advantage by an
attempt to drive the rebel infantry from its
commanding position on the hill , nnd in
person ho dlivcted Colonel Tunvor to make
thn assault with his brlg.idiDown the
slope , across the deep r.ivino and up the
steep declivity , charged the gallant Thayer ,
the First Nebraska in the law. Company H
of the Nebraska First , under command of
Captain Unumor-ono of the companies re
cruited In the city of Omaha was deployed
on the skirmish line , aud performed Its dutv
In a highly creditable manner. Colonel
Thayer succeeded in dislodging the rebel
forces , the dlscotnfHtcd confederates falling
bi ck beyond the brow of the hill , where they
ct ! lid no longer annoy the federal right.
At this Juncture Low Wallace changed
fiuntbyu loft wheel of the whole division.
In the execution of this movement 'he First
Nobra&ha was compelled to move under a
heavy lire of the enemy's Infantry and
artillery , but the western troops were as tin-
mindful of thu leaden hall that fell around
them as they were of thu rain that fell from
heaven thu night before. Once beyond the
lire the regiment formed In the timber where
it renmli.od for three quarters of an hour
waiting for orders. The orders soon rumo.
Low \ValJaco received orders to move his
column oblliiuoly forward against the ene
my's center. This movembnt necessarily ox-
imsod his right Hank. The over watchful foe
Immediately threw n body of oavalry
upon the exposed Hank , but Thayer
felled the design by moving
the Twniity-thlrd Indiana and Captain
Ilaumcr's company 11 , of too First Nebraska ,
forward about twenty roils , directly In front
of the approaching rebel cavalrr. This do-
tachmout o | > onMl such u galling | | N tint th
enemy retired In confusion ,
Col. Thayer then advanced his brlgado di
rectly nguniHt the enemy's center.Vltli n
front ai unbroken as ujwiii the pwrade ground
the brigade advanced , the First Nebraska
wovlng directly up to a position in front of
the enemy's ' battery. Following Thayor's
issault the battle raged for two hours with-
tut Interruption. In his report Lo\v Wallace
illudod in words of lining praise to "the
toblo First Nebraska. " The troops from
Nebraska Indeed fought like veterans nud
l Ul d only \vheii iholr ammunition gave
out. Then the regiment filed to tao rr.ir in
good order to replenish th' ir exhausted cart
ridge boxes , Tliaycr's ammunition wagon
had been unable to follaw him across the ra
vines , but General Wallace sent him one of
his own which had fortunately
arrived at that moment by
another route. ( Milling thi'ir emptv cart
ridge boxes , the First Nebraska boys again
wont to the front , having been absent but
twenty minutes. In n short tlmo the enemy
began to give way. The union troops in
creased their galling II rw and the rebels fled
precipitately , Tlmycr's brigade Joining in the
pursuit for a mile and n half.
The conduct of the First Nebraska on the
second day at Shiloh won the bitt host commen
dations of all the general olllcers. The boys
fought with a steadiness and a bravery
that excited the oi > vy nnd emulation
of nil the troops that were near
them. The regiment went Into action
at f o'clock In the morning and remained la
the light until It was recalled from Its pur
suit of the routed enemy at 5 o'clock In the
afternoon. They pressed the nncmj ste.idily
bcckwnrd during the day for a distance of
over four miles , the rebels con testing the
ground rod by rod. foot by foot , with a
desperation born of fury unit de
spair. In his report , Colonel Thayer
allude1 * to the gallant sorvicess of the First
Nebraska as follows :
"Nobly did the First Nebraska sustain Its
well-earned the of Donel-
reputation , - on Held -
son. Its progress was onward during tha
day , In the face ofja galling tire of the enemy ,
moving on without llliiehlng , at one time
being for an hour and a half In front of the
battery , receiving and returning Its lire. Its
conduct wns most excellent. Lieutenant
Colonel McCord and Major R. R. Livingston
were constantly in the thickest of the light ,
executing every order with the utmost
promptness and alacrity. They are de crv-
inu' of the highest commendation for their
gallantry. "
In this battle the First Nebraska lost be
tween twenty and thirty men. Company B ,
wlueh on two occasions during the day per-
fanned such gallant services , was lecruitcd
in Omaha by Captain \V. M. Uauinor , who
was afterwards promoted to ho lieutenant
colonel of the regiment Its olllcers and men
were nearly nil foreigners. Of the twenty-
six commissioned and non-commissioned olll-
ccrs who served In the company during the
war , twenty-one were naturalised citi/ens ,
while eighty-three of the privates were born
on foreign soil. This fact , however ,
did not detract from their bravery on the
battle Held , nnd they upheld thu stars and
stripes with as much patriotism and en
thusiasm ns if It hud been the ensign of their
own native land.
Colonel John M. Thnyor's gallant conduct
on the Hold of Donelson and Shiloh won aim
a brigadier mineral's commission , which ho
received on October 1 , Ivi'J. From that time
ho was separated from the bravo First
Nebraska. R. R. Livingston of Plattsmouth ,
who died recently , was promoted to the com
mand of the regiment , nnd won honor for
himself and his state in that position.

The papers often refer to the soldiers of
the regular army in terms indicative of any
thing but respectful admiration , and do not
seem to understand that the enlisted inon
are , in every sense of the word , the best ma
terial that can bo had for the .service. Re
cruiting ofllcer.s do not , perhaps , accept ono
in ten of those who apply for c'nlistment , and
of the number thus accepted , a considerable
proportion Is rejected at the medical examin
ation , says Army aud Navy. The recruit
ing olllcers are exceedingly careful whom
they enlist , as , In case of subsequent rejec
tion , any expense that may have been In
curred on account of the recruit hastily ac
cepted falls on the onleor who enlisted 'him.
The would-be recruit is always catechised as
to his habits , previous history , whether mar
ried or single , where ho last lived and how
long , for young men of roving habits
nro not , desirable , being too apt to
desert. Ho Is asked for references , and
told that the parties to whom ho refers
will ho written to in regard to him. Ho is
then requested to return in a few days.
If ho had stated the truth with regard to him
self and is otherwise a desirable man , ho is
passal on to the doctors for examination , but
if the parties to whom ho refers do no an
swer , or give a bad account of him , ho is re
jected , for n loafer or criminal would make a
very poor soldier. Ho need not bring n cor-
tlllcuto from his Sunday school teacher , for ,
in the Sunday school sense of the word , a boy
may bo bad and yet perfectly lilted for the
service , but the army Is no place for the Idle
and vicious classes , and they are rigorously
excluded.
I'lit Sherman ConliI Whip
"I cnmo up to Louisville on ono occasion
during the war with General Sherman , " says
a Washington Star writer.o loft the
train nnd took a 'bus to the hotel. The gen
eral had his servant , a colored man , totnko a
seat with the driver. After wo had traveled
several blocks the old soldier began to grow.
nervous. Finally ho got out of the 'bus and
stood near the horses and asked the driver
why ho was driving all over the town in or
der to got to the hotel. The driver said ho
know his business. Sherman said ho didn't.
Then the old soldier told him to get
off his seat , and he , Sherman , would
drive himself. The driver told him
ho couldn't drive that team , and
to go back and got In the 'bus and keep his
mouth shut , Sherman gave the driver n
dressing in unadulterated English , winding
up with tha remark : 'You don't know'who
Jam , sir ! I am General Sherman and my
time is precious. "
"Tho driver replied : 'I don't care who
you are. I wouldn't euro if you was Abra
ham Lincoln. You mav know how to whip
rebels , but you don't know how to drive a 'bus.
And I don't want any moro talk out of you ,
or you and this nigger of yours will walk to
the hotel. '
"Sherman resumed his seat and said In
reply to a question some ono asked him about
the trouble : "I wouldn't mind walking my
self. I think I could Hnd the hotel , but I
wouldn't trust my servant In the dark in
this town.1 "

It was one of tlioso gloomy days of fog and
sinoko lu which this roaring city abounds. A
line mist fell. I wus going west on Dear
born street when there suddenly Hashed past
mo in the crowd u pair of gold eye glasses ,
A delicate chain clambered like a ( lower's
tendril over the left oar of the gentleman
upon whoso nose they rode and usaln de
scending found anchorage on his manly
bosom by moans of a little gold hook fastened
to his vest. His board , which was also
golden , grow to a point , on hU chin after the
manner called "Boulangor , " and was par
tially concealed by the high collar of tin
overcoat which also hid all but the tips of
his ears and nearly mot the rim of n gloisy
tile.
I accostoil him and he handed mo a card
bearing the legend : "Carter As Fort , fruit
commission merchants , " and in long red let
ters extending across the fuco thereof was
the word , ' Bananas. " Notwithstanding
some metamorphoses , I was able to recoy-
nl/o Mr. Will J. Carter , latu of Knglaud ,
later of the bounding main and still moro
recently of Omaha. lie had added many
chapters to his adventurous life since leaving
the service of 'I'm : HKD. Those Included a
brief career In Journalism In Nashville. Now
Orleans ami other southern points , during
which ho had mingled with the southern
politician and learned his ways. He found
them on the whole a very pleasant and
courteous people , but felt impelled to decline
their hospitality on ono occasion when
a lynching party wns arranged In recognition
of his activity in thu cause of republicanism
in a strongly democratic communitv.
In Now Orleans Mr. Carter married the
daughter of a fruit commission merchant and
came to Chicago to assume the management
of n branch liouso for his father-in-law , lo
cating on South Water street. Tno fruit
commission business proved too prosaic ,
however , and Mr Carter has recently re
turned to journalism. Ho Is now doing tlio
city work fcr a weekly truda review and
will doubtless soon re-enter the cxhiliarnting
atmosphere of daily nowspa [ or lllo.
In the throng of business and fashion
which pours along upper Stnto street , 1 met
Kdward Gnrczynsklouu bright day last week.
His bearing was ns military and his stop as
elastic as when ho trod the streets of Omaha
several moons ago. Mr. Gnrcrynski had just
left the Auditorium , where ho had been ob
taining material for an article on the interior
decoration of the building for an architect
ural paper with which ho is connected. He
also contributes to the local dailies.
To Mr , W. ( ' . Gregory Is duo the fact that
the l venlug Journal now enjoys a standing
among railway men second to no other in the
city. When ho ih'st came to Chicago some
thing less than a year ago Mr. Gregory ac
cepted n place on the local stuff of the
Times but after some months' service with
that paper was offered a position on the
Journalaud his wide acquaintance with rail
road men and affairs , coupled with untiring
energy in the collection of news , has fully
sustained the record of that conservative
paper ns a reliable purveyor of intelligence ,
specially affecting commercial interests.
Mr. Fred Nye has recently boon given
charge of the weekly edition of the Herald.
When ho llrst came to Chicago from Omaha
Mr Nye wrote many special articles for the
Herald. Ills bright and pungent method of
handling local topics soon madou distinct de
mand for his services on that paper.
Another member of the Herald stall who
will bo well remembered by the bon vtvant
of Omaha is Mr. Guy Matnwarlng , who has
been connected witn the paper ovr two
years nnd Is one of the most reliable and ofll-
clout newsgnlherers.
An occasional contributor to the Herald's
columns Is Mr. C. II. Cresso.v , On his re
cent arrival in the city Mr. Crossoy found
himscif already known through Tun Unr.'s
special dispatches-trom the recent outbreak
In Dakota which were distributed
over the whole country through the
Associated press. Ho likes the gait
of the world's fair city nnd thinks seriously
of locating hero permanently.
George W. Apporson , who wont to the St.
Louis Globe-Democrat shortly after resign
ing his position ns e'.ty ' editor of the Omaha
Rcpubll : an some four years ago , has Joined
the ranks of Chicago newspaper 1111:11. After
considerable .service as traveling correspond
ent of the creat religious daily.Mr. Apperson
was assigned to the Washington bureau of
that papol1 nnd has boon connected with it
over since until u short time ago. It was
largely to Mr. Apporson that the public is indebted -
dobted for the silver pool sensation nnd the
lecent investigation of the matter by con
gress. Ho Is now in Chicago and has accepted
the vacancy left by Mr. Nye as ono of tno
copy readers of the Herald.
Simultaneously witu the advent of the S.
P. Rounds management of the Republican
and the retirement of Mr. Apuerson came B.
L. Bertram ! as managing editor. Upon his
retirement fiom the managing editor's chair
Air. Bortrand went to Los Angeles and from
there to Snn Francisco. The Chronicle sent
him to Washington , where ho remained until
u couple of mouths ago , when ho came to
Chicago to take charge of the news bureau
which the Chronicle has established hero.
Ills headquarters am in the Herald building.
At thu city editor's desk of the
News across the way from the Herald on
Fifth avenue sits Mr. Bert Ivenilrick. Very
shortly after coining hero from Omaha some
three years ago , Mr. Kcndrlck wont into the
telegraph room of the Evening News , subse
quently wrote editorial paragraphs for a
time and after that became city editor of the
day editions of tlip paper. Mr. Kendrick
was married some time ago and reside ) in
the suburbs.
Mr. Ben ICiug still wears high collars and
a silk tile , but Is no longer n journalist. After
leaving Omaha Mr. King went to California ,
wus for some tlmo connected with the Snn
Francisco papers , and subsequently came to
Chicago. ilii > last work as n newspaper man
was done for the city press association. Ho
loft that organization last full nnd has since
been acting in the capacity of promoter
general for n largo real estate firm hero.
