LOST ON THE BATTLEFIELD.
J. It. Connellr In the Globe-Democrat.
The sun was xcll up In the eastern iky ,
ret only a half-light penetrated the denio
North Carolina plno forest , through which
two weary wayfarers were trudging northWard -
Ward , ncarlng Petersburg. Ona of the twain
was a colored man past middle age , but how
far It would have been hard to say , since ,
although his woolly head was well frosted
and his thick eyebrows white as snow , there
were few wrinkles In his face , and his frame
etlll seemed vigorous. His companion was a
little white girl , not more than 9 years old ,
daintily dressed and exceedingly pretty. The
deep carpet of pine needles upon which they
walked swallowed up the sound of their foot-
stops. and as they went silently for some
time they might welt have seemed to a su
perstitious observer an Ill-assorted pair of
ghosts.
'
"Wha' dat ? " suddenly exclaimed the
darky , In a startled and excited tone , pausIng -
Ing with one foot raised and held In the air ,
If ready to be set down In a reverse di
rection tor instant flight.
"A cannon ! " answered the child , and In-
Btantly , as If to cmphaslro the correctness
of her guess , the combined roars of a num
ber of great guns filled the air and seemed
to set the earth trembling.
That first shot was doubtless the signal
for a general attack , bul by whom and upon
what the wanderers could not know. And
they could not even toll with any satlsfyng
certainty the direction from which these
terrifying ( sounds came.
"Uncle Sam , " exclaimed the little girl ,
"they're right In front of us ! "
"Yaas , Missy Eunice , so ( ley Is. We bo to
bo gwlnc back Jcs' as fas' as we can. DIs
yer no place for us , " and he wheeled around
for a retreat. Hut tlio Instant he did so ,
facing the ranee of low hills previously at
Ills back , their echoes made the cannonading
seem to come from them. He grew confused
and stood still. "Fo1 < le la well" ho ex
claimed. "Dey done busted out da' , too.
D 7's all roun' us. Ain't no whar' we c'n
BO. Oh , Lawd ! lemmo.out ills yer scrape ,
en * I nebber mo' mix up wlf sech foolishness
lone ea I lib. "
"Oh , Sam ! Can't wo hide somewhere ? "
"taws , missy , I dunno. I'd gib a mule to
be to' liunnerd mites fin dls place. " Ills
teeth were chattering with fright.
Soon with the thunders of the heavy guns
which opened the engagement were mingled
explosive sounds of another nature sharper ,
not so loud , but more numerous. The voices
of Hold batteries at work. Ram did not
know what they were , but his ear was keen
cnouch to detect the new notes , and any
change nas to him fresh cause for alarm.
"I 'clar to gracious ! " ho exclaimed , "dey
don't seem to bo no safe place In all do
wide yea'th 'ccptln' maybe deep down In de
Broun' , or roostln' mighty high , no lower
dan do clouds. " Then his hearing and consequently
quently his apprehension received a " " .v
chock , from anothe.- variation In the volu.no
of terrifying sound. The rattle of rllles and
the yells of the combatants seemed to fill
In the spaces batween the mightier pulsa
tions made by the roaring cannon In the
throbbing air. It would Indeed * have been a
severe ordeal for stronger nerves than either
Sam or Eunice had. to thus stand In what
the sense of hearing gave assurance was the
very center of a fiercely contested battlefield ,
yet see no living creature In all the forest ,
far as sight could range. It was as If armies
of ghosts were warring about them In that
dim light , and some such fancy for a moment
Inspired In Sam a new thrill of horror.
Could they have seen beyond the low hill
and dense forest In their Immediate front ,
they would have behold the battle of Hatch's
Run , fought on April 1 , 18G5 , one of the moat
Important movements In the advance upon
Petersburg. They were hardly more than a
quarter of a mile from where one of the
fiercest conflicts of the day was at that
moment raging.
"Da's no use tryln" runnln' 'way , Missy
Eunice , " said Sam. "Lak de ahmy ob de
Lewd en do spsrlch'l '
hymn , iley's done sur
rounding us. You's too tired to run ; I's too
weak In do knees to cyah' you ; 'sides , wha'd
we run ef wo could ? Laic as not wo run
right In 'mongst do red hot balls an' bloody
men a sockln * bay'nets Into eb'rybody. lies'
I o'n do Is hide you low down 'tween dem
two big rocks , what de bullets bounce oft'n ;
klbah you up wit bresh , so de killers won't
know you'a da. Den I go fln' Mass' Prank
an' como back fo' you when ds ! foolishness
am ober. "
The child , having no better suggestion to
offer , and trusting him Implicitly , was sub
missive , and as he had proposed , so In a few
minutes was done. He made. In a deep
recess between the two hugs rocks , a soft
bed of pine needles , and when she was safely
Btowed away In It , covered her well with
brush , so that only by sharp scrutiny could
her presence have bsen detected If she kept
quiet , as he enjoined her to. As he stood
panting from his hurried work and trying to
decide which way he should go , that decision
was suddenly made for him. While he had
bee.p hiding his little charge the tde : of battle -
\tle had rolled In his direction. The confederates -
federates , forced back across the little val
ley by an advance of the federal lines , were
driven up the slope of the little hill which
had hitherto sheltered Sam from the actual
presence of tno fight , and though they fought' '
well to hold their ground , were gradually'
forced to move farther and farther back.
Two batteries ot field p'cces were hurling
conical shells among them , In addition to the
leaden rain from the rifles ot a brigade of
Infantry. When they passed the brow of the
hill and started retrograding down Its south
ern ( lope , panic spread among them , retreat
became rout. Sam was already tar In ad
vance of the most
fleet-footed among them ,
his years forgotten , devouring time and space
with a gait that would , by comparison , have
made a scared rabbit seem slow. He had
been started by a conical shell that. In drop
ping flight , passed close over hU head with
the unearthly scream of Its kind , which to
his excited Imagination seemed the voice o
* devil yelling , "Wha' ! yu ? Wha' Is yu ? '
and , striking a rock only a little way before
him , exploded and shattered It. Another
fallowed , shrieking , "I sees yul I sees yu !
He no longer ran ; ho flew.
The tumult of conflict , Imprecations , yells ,
clash ot weapons , rattle of small arms and
cries of pain or fear swept down the slope
In the rear of the swifter fugitives , close :
and closer to where the child lay hidden.
II.
Dusk had fallen. A group of tired , dls
heartened , bedraggled , tattered , powder
crimed men , some In gray uniforms , other
In ordinary dress or Its remnants gath
ered. about a small fire In a nook ot the hills ,
They were a few of the scattered confederate !
whom accident and common sympathy hat
brought together. The changing fortunes o.
fight and flight had stranded them hardly
two miles from where they were posted be
fore the battle , and they vaguely supectei
that the federal lines were not far froti
them. Yet they made their fire , threw the ! ;
arms and occouterments on the ground nea :
by , and set themselves to making semi
parched corn coffee , too weary and , dispirited
to cars much whether they were discovered
or not. After a night's rest , they had con' '
eluded , would bo tlmo enough to hunt u |
what might bo left of tliejr several com'
mands. Some of them had In their haver
tacks slender rations of corn bread , whlc
they shared with their less fortunate com
panlons. A few had small wounds , whlc )
others helped them to bind up. There wa :
not much conversation. One said. In
reminiscent sort ot way : "Kunnel Uelcher ,
when 'llstln' us boys , told us one souther
Gentleman could lick six northern mud
Ills. "
"He was a liar , " commented another In ,
tone of calm conviction.
"IV sure. " Indorsed a third.
"They all said that to Ore the souther ;
heart. "
Well , Its flred. "
"Yes ; out. "
They discussed whether It wa * wort
whileto do any sentry duty , concluding ,
dually , more for style than because then
r was any use In It , upon a sort ot compro
mlse observance of the custom , one slttlni

Ing cautiously Into the light , exclaiming
cproachfully , as ho appeared : "Mar's

"No , Indeed , Sam. Dut It took me a mln-

"I'se gwlne tell y'u , Mar's Frank" . Dat's

Is seat , and began :
"Befo' Missis Silvia died "

"And you have left Eunice .somewhere

"Mar's Frank , I couldn't help It. An' no

"Wo must see about that at once , If you

"Sho'ly , Mar's Frank , I go dar straight as

"Sho must , at best , be almost starved and
frightened to death. "
In a few moments Frank had a comrade
waked to take Ills place as a watcher , but a
second , also , had to be called , as the first ,
upon being made acquainted with the cir
cumstances , roundly swore ho would sit by
no camptlre while a friend went away alone
upon such an errand as Frank's. He would
go along. Sam guided them , and the way
was Indeed short , for the negro had the sav
age Instinct of direction and went on a bee-
Ine through the forest. In their anxious
eagerness the rescuers gave no thought to
the chances of running upon a federal
picket , and happily met no such surprise ,
the northern outposts having been estab
lished on the brow ot the hill beyond.
They found the big rocks between which
the child was hidden. The brush piled to
conceal her had been torn away the ground
all about was much trampled nothing but
pine needles remained In her hiding place
blood waa spattered upon one of the rocks.

When the war was over none were less In
sympathy with the partisan demagogy which
strove to keep sectional bitterness alive than
the bravo veterans of the Grand Army. At
all their public reunions they made a point
of welcoming and hospitably entertaining
men who had been "on the other side. " So ,
In 1872 , Li post of New York received as
one of Its guests a young southerner , Captain
Frank Beverly , who happened to bo In the
north on business , and Invited him to par
ticipate In their commemoration of that an
nlversary which should be held sacred by al
alike , north and south , In memory of our
loved and honored dead , who left sorrowing
hearts behind them , no matter upon which
side they fell. Captain Beverly gratefully
accepted the cordially tendered Invitation
and was given a seat In Colonel Swift's car
riage on the long ride to Greenwood cerae
tery ,
"Your face Is strangely familiar to me , '
remarked the colonel , as they rode along to
gether , "yet for the life of me I can't place
you. Were you ever In New York before'/ / "
"No , never. "
"And I have not been south , even as fa
as Washington , since the war. "
"Perhaps wo met under circumstances un
favorable to acquaintance during the 'un
pleasantnss , ' " suggested the young captain
with a smile.
"Very possibly ; and yet you must havi
been quite young for a soldier. "
"Oh ! our army was 'robbed from the era
die and the grave , ' you know. I went In a
a drummer boy before I was 14 ; put a too
through my drum within a week and thence
forth carried a gun until the chances of th
Held gave mo a sword Instead. " ; -
"And now that It Is all over , are you no
glad the thing ended as it did ? "
"Frankly , yes. Tbo experience did botli
north and south good , making them know
each other better , and the south Is better off
without slavery. I have no regrets for th
past , except one , a purely personal matter ,
a very sad memory. "
"Ah ! Wo all have them. The earth hide :
dear ones from both sides alike. We ari
brothers In sorrow as our solemn servlci
this day , annually , will over keep In re in em
branco.
Perhaps I might think It less hard It ' '
could be assured that she Is at rest , v ,
doubt , suspense , hoping against hope , and' '
fearing all imaginary 111 , for one who ma :
yet be alive , are Indeed hard to bear. Sh
was so young , gentle , tender , good and beau
tlful ; and to think of how she disappeared , '
leaving no more trace than a name wrltte
In water , sometimes almost unmans me , "
"Indeed I sympathize with you deeply , Cap
tain Beverly. May I ask tbo circumstance !
of your bereavement ? "
"It occurred In April , 1S65. I was In th
fight at Hatch's Hun"
"So was I , " Interpolated the colonel , In a :
undertone.
"and that night I got word that a too
lih old slave had tried to bring to me. In th
army , my little sister Euulco , that I mlgh
tell him where ho should carry her. Sud
denly they found themselves on the verge o
the battlefield. The old darky became fright
ened , put her In what he thought a safe hid
Ing place , and ran away. When he guide
mo back to where ha had left her wo foun
only trampled ground and blood. She wa
gone. And the cloud of mystery that the
fell upon her fate has never since be
lifted. "
Colonel Swift listened to the narratlv
with surprlso and Intense Interest , but enl
said ; "You will hear from her again , n
oubt. I'm sure you will. " Then he sold
lOthlng more for some tlmo , until eventually
o broRc the silence by extending an Invlta-
lon .to dine with him when the ceremonies
f tho'day were over. The young man hesl-
.atecl a little , mentioning an engagement at
ils hotel , but the colonel Insisted : "Let your
ngagement go. You will come with me. If
iccessary I shall claim authority as your
ranking officer and command you , " To which
ho young man laughingly replied that head
ad not forgotten a soldier's duty to obey
rders.
The colonel and his guest were , upon en-
crtng the parlor of the former , received by
wo ladles , one of middle age , who was In-
roduccd as "My wife , Mrs. Swift ; " the
ithcr , a lovely girl , of whom the colonel
aid , "My adopted daughter , Miss Eunice. "
For a mlnuto the young man and the girl
, teed staring at each other , without word or
movement , as If paralyzed by surprise. Then ,
vlth simultaneous cries , "Brother Frank 1"
nd "My slater ! " they sprang Into each
ther's arms. Seeing them together , no one
could have wondered that the colonel had
'ound the features of the southern captain
trangely familiar.
At dinner the old soldier explained : "From
ho moment you spoke of the old darky hid
ing the little girl away the mystery was at
n end for me. Some of your boys made a
retty stiff stand behind the big rocks , where
, e had hidden her , and there was hard flght-
ng right around there , but the little one
: ept quiet , and her presence was not sus-
iected until a man , who was shot , fell on the
irush and his blood ran down on her. Then
lie screamed. My boys took her out and
irought her to me , and I turned her over to
he care of my wife , who was In camp at the
Imo on some sanitary commission business.
The child's fright had been so great that not
mill some time after she was brought to
Mew York was she able to tell her family
. .line or give any Information by which we
might find the 'brother Frank/ for whom
he * was continually calling. I sent word Into
our lines by exchanged prisoners again and
gain , trying to reach you , but never could ,
n time I forgot her old name , for we gave
er a new one our own. Having no chll-
ren of our own , and she having no ties , as
'ar as we could learn , we legally adopted
er , and she became ae dear to us as If she
ivero our own child by birth. "
"But with no greater love for her , dear
> apa , than she bears toyou and mamma , "
csponded the girl , kissing them both.
"No words can express my gratitude , "
iald "Brother Frank , " "and from this time
enceforth let no man tell mo that recon-
tructlon la a failure. "
BATTLING WITH A GRIZZLY.
Cnllfornin Hcokcepsr Slnys a Mammoth
licur.
Anton Sweltzke , a bee-raiser , came Into
Los Angeles from Tehunga canyon , Just
north of that city last Saturday , with the
; kln of a grizzly bear , which he had killed
a few days before after n thrilling encounter.
"he skin measures fully twelve feet long ,
and has UJP paws attached , each of which
measures .4v j bj1 ten Inches , showing the
normous sii'c . u j big beast. The bear
weighed over l.OJO > i'nds.
Sweltzko owns n llt.n ! bee ranch up In the
: anyon of Tehungp s v , of those openings In
he mountain rnr.lv < > . -.icli ' shows Itself Just
above San Fernando i-'i keeps a hundred or
more stands of be > Ir. . n which ordinarily
he derives his llvlf A One morning recently
10 went to uUi-'i liis bees and found a couple
if hives overlu njd and the bees In the wild
est commotion. One glance sufficed to show
hat a thief hid been there and had robbed
his bees of ( heir honey during the night ,
and ' the tracks in the ground showed that
he ( thief was a bear ot enormous size.
Sweltzke says that had he known it was a
grizzly { [ ' bear ho would have picked up his
camp and moved or let the bear have what
was left. He supposed the bear to be of the
ordinary brown variety , which was easily
put to flight , If not killed , and he determined
to kill the bear.
Sweltzke , after the first assault on his life ,
stood watch nightly with his rifle , but the
bear did not make his appearance. The
watcher was beginning to think of giving up
his vigilance three nights ago , and had re
turned to his cabin , when he heard some
thing approaching from the opposite sldo of
the canyon. He kept out of sight and
awaited developments. Almost before he
could realize It the bear was within 100 feet
of him. Without ado , the bear knocked over
a hive and reached for the contents.
"You may laugh , but do you know that
the bear looked as big as an elephant to me
when I finally got a good look at him ? " said
Sweltzke , when he told about his encounter.
Ho did not lose any time , however , In trying
a shot at the bear , for the loss of his honey
made him angry. The first bullet , which
was from a 45.95 cartridge , made the bear
cease his feast. The animal whirled around
with a growl of rage and started for the bee
keeper. It took but a few Jumps before an
other shot was sent after the first , with the
effect that It eemed to momentarily check
the bear's progress. It was only for a mo
ment , however , for the next second the bear
was within ten feet of Sweltzke and In an
upright position , with paws raised , mouth
wide open and In a frenzy of rage.
Swettzke said that he knew that If he
turned to run he was lost , as he could not
reach cover In time to save himself. His
only course was to make the next bullet find
some vital point , and then if It was a case
of hand-to-hand struggle he would fight It
out to the last. He said he can yet see the
frightful fangs and tbo big scarlet tongue
of the beast , with Its cars laid flat and Its
eyes glowing , advancing snarling and growl-
Ing. The bear was Just within reaching dis
tance when Sweltzke pulled the trigger. The
bear staggered , then fell and began a strug
gle to regain Its feet. But the wound was
fatal. The king of mountain beasts had to
give up , but In Its struggle , even at the last ,
It tore up the ground In all directions.
Then SwelUke grew faint as ho realized
his position and knew In what danger he
had been.
When the animal was skinned three bul
lets' , besides his own , were found embedded
In the skin , showing that some other hunter
had taken a shot , probably from some safe
distance , at the bear In the past. All of his
own bullets had taken effect In vital parts ,
the last one penetrating the heart. He was
a monster , and although Sweltzke has seen
many bears and had many encounters , this
DUB was the largest he bad ever seen In
southern California. Ho will never tackl.
another grizzly , ho says , without he Is In a
good , safe position. Had his last bullet failed
to reach the exact spot , or had his nerve deserted
sorted him , just us the bear was reaching
for him , he would have been a dead man.

men thought It no disgrace to steal theli

When Sir William Scott was a young

Sir Old'on Murray's lands. While driving
off a herd of cattle ho was caught , and , being
brought before Sir GUUon , ordered to bi

every day affair that Sir Oldeon went abou

TUESDAY , Nov. 6.
The receipts of cattle were hardly large
nough to make a market , although a big
rain of westerns arrived about noon to
iwoll the supply. There were' only thirty-
five loads nil told on the early market ,
llee'f steers were In good demand at strong
.o higher prices , and the few here soon
ihnnged hands.
Conditions here nnd elsewhere were fa-
rornble to sellers , nnd as the number of-
'ered was limited prices ruled strong to a
dime higher , according to the quality of the
ifterlngs , and the few cows and heifers on
iala were soon picked up. Veals , oxen ,
itags and odds and ends of all kinds sold
eadlly ' .o fill In , and at the close of the
market but few cattle of any kind were
unsold.
There were very few stockcrs nnd feeders
n today's run , and as there was a pretty
good demand from local dealers values In
his line were generally strong , with some
if the better cattle selling 6c to lOc higher.
As on the other markets , there were
few cattle left over. Good to choice feeders
are ' quoted at $2.60j3,25 ; fair to good , 12.25
12.GO , and common grades from $2.25 down.

HOGS The run was conriderebly 'larger than on
Tuesday of last week , while the General quality
was about the same as heretofore , besides the
regular local Inquiry , speculators were pretty free
buyers , ami there was ulso some shipping ile-
iruuid , consequently the market was lively from
start to finish and prices ruled pretty close to a
dime higher on packing and shipping weights.
There was the usual number of throwouts , plgo ,
etc. , and these sold as a rule In yesterday's
notches , except that some of the small , light
pHus and hogs were picked up at better figures to
flll out killers' orders. Sales were at extremes
of from 51.25 to 34.60 and the bulk sold at 14.15
to S4.66 , against a built yesetrday of 11.40 and
14.60. and on last Tuesday the bulk went at 14.35
to $1.40. Representative sales :

London Murk Review.
NEW YORK , Nov. 6. The Evening Post's Lon
don cablegram Is as follows : The stock markets
were firm all around today , although business
waa restricted and operations were generally too
quick to be healthy. Americans , however , ad
vanced sharply on the prospect of a declelva re
publican victory and closed at about the best.
It Is believed also that the possibility of the gov
ernment Issuing treasury bonds tends to remove
the fears of heavy gold shipments this year. The
result of the China gold loan Is not announced ,
but It Is believed to be very moderate.
