Our battery lind been doing splendid
lervlco. Prom our position on the
light wo could sco tlio shells drop Into
Iho woods nnd break up tho formation
f the Confederate cavalry every time
llioy loft cover.
We know whero they wore. Job
ituurt's old troopers were there; AVudc
Hampton's dragoons were there I m
Ooden, Kosser, Mosby every Confed
erate cavnlry command wo hnd fought
In Virginia was making ready In the
shelter of tho woods to chargo on our
left Dunk.
"Boom! Dooml Uooml"
Tho gunners knew what was at
Hake. The orders were to dlo at the
puns If tho position could not bo held.
For half an hour their bursting shells
kept the front clear, and wo of the
cavalry cheered them.
Out from tho cover of the forest at
half n dozen places gallop the gray
troopers by hundreds. They wheel to
the right and left, form In two lines,
take their distance, close up with n
trembling motion, and now there will
be n grand charge. The shells burst
In front of them, among them, but
discipline Is stronger than tho fear of
death.
Loss than 300 of us all cavalry to
Hupport tho battery. If that mob of
gray riders ever reaches the foot of the
slopo wo shall bo picked up and sent
whirling llko dry leaves In n hurricane.
Tho flro of tho six guns becomes more
rapid. It Is truly terrible, but In their
haute the gunners do less execution.
"Left wheel! Forward! nightdress!"
Just 278 of us by nctual count ns we
dress In two ranks. What nro wo go
lug to do?
"Draw sabers! Forwurdl Trot! Gal
lop! ChargeT'
They nro driving us down at that
body of men ten times our number
to break and check tho charge. If wo
can stop them for ten minutes tho bat
tery will bo snved by tho infantry. We
oblique to tho left ns wo go to closo up.
Wo nro a living wedge, driving down
to enter n living mass and split It in
twain.
Tho wedgo enters. Tho wedge drives
uhcad over fallen horses nnd dismount
ed men, yelling, slashing, cutting, keep
ing their pace. A trooper slashes nt
mo, n horso goes down In front or
mine, I feel myself falling with my
horse, nnd then I urn out of tho tight
for n moment.
Tho darkness which enshrouded
things passes nwny after n bit, and 1
nnd my horso lying across my feet
with tho saddlo Hup so holding him
that his dead body must bo lifted up
to get mo out.
Tho chargo of tho gray troopers
was broken. That wedge drove right
through tho mass and turned to attack
them in tho rear. Swirling about in
circles llko tho vulture of war, tho
mass of men edges away until tho
field about mo Is clear of all liut tho
dead and wounded. I'vo got a saber
cut on tho shoulder and can feel tho
wnrm blood bathing my nrm, but I
know I could walk away If 1 could
get my feet clear. 1 am worklnir to
extrlcato them when I hear hoofbeats
behind me. Tho next moment n rider
less horso dashes up nnd comes to u
halt- Ho has not been hit, but ho has
left his rider dead back there In tlio
stubble, u Federal captain.
Tho horse stands pawing and snort
ing when out from tho whirl of death,
half a mllo uway, breaks n chestnut
charger and conies galloping dowu
upon us. There Is blood on tho sad
dlo llaps drops of blood on his shiny
Hanks. It Is not his blood, but that of
tho Confederate man who rode him.
and who has been cut down by n stroke
of tho saber.
It Is gray versus chestnut Federal
versus Confederate. Tho newcomer Is
still n hundred feet away, when tho
gray horso rushes at lilm with ears laid
bnck and mouth open, and as I watch
them I forget that shells are scream
ing, bullets whistling and tho saber lin
ing bloody work within sound of my
voice. As tho two horses como togeth
or they rear up, neigh dcllanco at each
other and a tight begins a battle with
in a battle. Each seems embued with
a deadly hatred for tho other, nnd to
bo determined to destroy his antago
nist. Of a sudden I realize that they nro
closo upon me. In their mad furv thev
fee neither dead nor wounded hear
not tho shout and shot of battle.
Tho grny kicks n dead man aside us
ho backs up for n fresh effort; the
chestnut tramples the llfo out of a
wounded mnn ns ho dances about
They will bo over mo If I do not stop
Ihom. Tho heels of tho gray are throw
ing dirt Into my face as I unsllng my
carbine nnd rest it across my dead
horse for n shot I lire nt tho grny, us
ho is tho nearer nnd the greater men
ace, but tho bullet misses tho target
At that moment they beglu toVork to
tlio left, nnd in tho next they nro past
me, leaping over dead horses and tram
pllng on dead men ns they scream nnd
bite nud kick.
Above tho roar of battlo I hear n rlllo
shell coming. It gives out n growling,
complaining sound which no man ever
henrs without a chill. The sound
prows louder nearer crash! Tho
horses wero fifty feet away, and It
must have struck ono of them. Thero
was a cloud of suioko, n whizzing of
ragged fragments, and when I could
eo again both horses wero down torn

How Long Your Nails Grow.
Tho growth of an average linger nail
Is about ono thirty-second of an Inch a
week, or nearly one and one-half Inrhe.
In a year, so those aristocratic Chines
who proudly exhibit nails six to cigh
Indies In length must have refrained
from cutting them nt least four to six
years. Finger nails grow faster In tho
summer than In winter, 'the nail on
the middle linger grows faster thai
any of the others, and that of tho
thumb Is slowest In growth. The nails
of the right hand grow faster than
those of the left. A nail Is supposed
to reach Its full growth In about fou
nnd u half months, and at this rate :
mnn seventy years old would have re
newel his nails .M!2 times. On each
linger ho would have grown nine fee
of mil or on nil his lingers and
thumbs no less than ninety feet o

Wilton Pago was twenty years old
nnd, handsome ns u picture. Hu had
an oval face, large dreamy eyes and
cameo cut features.
Wilton entered n parlor enr ono dnj
for n, Journey. On tho opposite side
were three women. Ono wns nbout
thirty, another twenty nnd the third
seventeen. Tho two younger ones call
ed the oldest Aunt Sue, while she call
ed tho next younger Dorothy nnd the
younger Fanny. Aunt Sue scorned to
!e on terms of equality with the oth
ers nnd wns the merriest of the throe.
Dorothy and she were continually
crucklng Jokes with each other, while
Fnnny wns sober, but childlike.
Wilton, having plnced his hand bag
gage in tho rack above him. settled
himself In his chair, pulled a novel
from his pocket and began to read. lie
did not therefore observe the effect hLs
manly beauty had on tho ladles.
Dorothy looked from him to Aunt Sue
anil back again to him with an expres
sion that being Interpreted meant.
"Isn't ho Just too lovely for anything?"
Aunt Sue returned the glance. Indicat
ing "Handsome enough to kiss." Little
Fanny observed the mute comments of
her ciders, but said nothing.
Dorothy leaned toward Aunt Suo nnd
whispered something In her ear. Aunt
Silo cast her eyes aside, rested them
on Wilton for a few moments, then
whispered something In Dorothy's ear.
Then Dorothy swung her chair nround
nnd snld something to Fnnny. who
glnuced nt Wilton mid shook her head.
Indicating a negative.
Wilton read on unconscious of the at
tentlon he was attracting from those
three ladles. Indeed, he had not given
them u glance on entering the enr and
had begun his reading as soon us ho
had settled himself. They were all
comely, dressed In n manner to In
dicate that they were persons of refine
ment, and since women llko to be
noticed Wilton Ignoring them may
have spurred them to a conspiracy they
concocted concerning him. Hut of this
the reader must form his or her own
opinion after hearing what this con
spiracy was.
Those were the days when trains on
pnsslng through tunnels wero not light
ed ns they are today. On tho line upon
which theso three persons were travel
ing was a tunnel so long that some
throe minutes by the watch wore re
cpilred for a trnln to pass through it.
The trnln renched tho tunnel in nbout
an hour after starting. As soon as
they entered It Wilton dropped his
book on his kueo and with his faco to
tho window waited for the return of
light About half tho dlstanco under
ground had been passed when he felt
a pair of arms thrown around his neck
and a pair of lips pressed against his
own.
Having been pinioned from behind.
he was powerless to resist tlio kiss If
ho had wished to do so or to get a
hold on the kisser. He tried to clutch
tho nrms, but they evaded him, nnd all
tlio satisfaction ho derived from tho
attempt was a knowledge that they
wero covered with feminine material.
Ho reached out wildly In tho dark, but
camo In contact with nothingness.
Nearly two minutes elnnseil bnforn
the train shot out Into duyllgh't When
It did so Wilton swept tlio car with his
glanco with a view to discovering who
had kissed him. There were a number
of women in it besides the three ladies
mentioned. Having noted those at a
distance, ho fixed his glanco upon his
neighbors. Aunt Sue was peering out
of tho window, and, her bnck being
toward him, ho could not see her face.
Dorothy was wiping the dust out of
her eyes with her handkerchief. Fan
ny was leaning back in her chair look
lng up at the car celling apparently
wrapped In thought
Wilton formed nn opinion that ho
had been kissed by ono of his nelcli-
bors. Do came to this conclusion be
cause they were so near him nnd be
cause there was no other woman on
the train who looked ns if she would
bo likely to commit such an act Of
the three he fixed upon Dorothv as
the culprit. And yet when she finished
wiping tho dust out of her eyes ho
noticed an amused rather than n guilty
expression on her face. Aunt Sue kept
her back turned toward him so lom
that he was not sure after all that sho
was not the perpetrator. Tho onlv
ono of the three that he was quite sure
was innocent was Fanny. She looked
fitted to sit as a model for n Madonna.

Why Men Eat More Food Than Women
That men eat 5 or (J per cent more
than women-not because they are
gluttons, but because they nctunlly re
quire that much more nourishment
appears as a result of an Investigation
made In the nutrition laboratory of
the (arnegle Institute at Washington
by Francis u. Benedict and L. E.
Fames, says the Literary Digest. The
reasou for the discrepancy seems to lie
that women have a smaller proportion
of active tissue than men of the same
weight and more Inactive material,
such as fat The Investigation dis
closed that the average woman gen
erates only 1',"5 heat units In the
twenty-four hours ns against l.GitS pro
duced by the man, or about 2 per cent
more for the latter per pound of body
weight. When groups were compared
after careful selection of Individuals
of nearly the same height and weight
the men were found to produce nbout
VI per cent more heat than women.
Marriage Superstitions.
In some parts of Germany the duties
of the bridesmaids nre tinged with su
perstition. It is one of their duties on
the morning of the nmninge day to
carry to the bride a myrtle wreath, for
which they had subscribed on tho pre
vious evening. This they pluco on her
head and at night remove it. when it is
placed In the bride's hand, she being nt
tho time blindfolded. The brldesmulds
then dnnee round her. while she en-
denvors to place the wreath on one of
their heads. Whoever is fortunate
enough to be thus decorated will, it Is
believed, be a wife before nnother year
lias passed. In removing the bridul
wreath and veil tho bridesmaids arc
careful to throw away every pin or the
brlile will be overtaken by misfortune

tains one will lessen her chances of
marriage. Dundee Advertiser.
The Meteoric Hypothesis.
The nebular hypothesis of La Place
has been ubuudoued In favor of the me

nearly Identical theories, wero made by

mloal bodies, such as the meteors now
falling on the earth.
