HIS LAST TATTOO.
O LONG AS POETS,
and historians con
tinue to weave
pretty stories of
personal valor, and
they will do it as
long as a spark of
patriotism burns In
the human breast,
no class of heroes
will And greater fa
masses, or whose
heroic feats will bring the Are back to
the veteran’s eye surer, than the brave
little fellows who sounded the reveille
or beat taps. Bugle boys and drummer
boys have figured often and conspicu
ously In the annals of war. And no
where In history have we more or
brighter examples of this kind than In
the records of the Civil War, on both
sides—Confederate and Union.
- The story of Harry Baldwin's un
swerving loyalty to the old flag, and
his fearlessness of death for the cause
he had ' so nobly espoused, affords a
bright example of this kind. He be
longed to a New York regiment—I am
sorry that I have forgotten Its number,
though that hardly matters as long as
I remember the main facts of his ad
ventures—and he was the life and heart
of his older comrades.
In truth, our little drummer boy was
looked upon with so much favor, and he
had shown such clear-headed ability on
certain dangerous occasions, that when
the commander felt anxious to learn
certain particulars In regard to the en
emy he delegated Harry to go upon the
hazardous mission.
“Keep your eyes open, my boy, as I
know you will, and I will risk you to go
where I would not dare send any scout
of mine, but I must warn you to never
forget that you are in the enemy's coun
try, and that a sli ,le mistake will cost
you your life. I snail not put you from
my thoughts until I see you safely back
here with the news I am so anxious to
have.”
Feeling, as every true soldier should,
the Importance of his perilous under
taking, Harry started forth on his re
connolssance. It was already growing
dusky in the deeper forest, and Boon the
zhades,_of night would enable him to
push his way Into the vicinity of the
Confederate army with greater safety.
He knew very well that It lay encamp
ed behind the low mountain range that
ran for ten miles or more north and
south, with here and there a broken link
affording passage to the other side. I
say he knew they were there, but had
he known their exact location, this
night trip would not have been neces
sary.
His clothes covered with .dust, and
his limbs aching from the day’s hard
marching, the drummpr boy moved
somewhat wearily through the moun
tain gap, while the shadows fell deeper
and darker around him. It was a wild,
lonely place, though he gave little heed
to his surroundings other than to watch
them closely for some Indication of the
enemy that he felt might be lurking un
comfortably near.
Still nothing occurred to excite his
suspicions, until a gradual lifting of the
shadows ahead told him that he was
approaching the other side of the range,
and that It behooved him to move with
even greater caution than hitherto.
Thus his surprise may be Imagined
when, as he was Silently cravfilng
around a jagged arm of one of the foot
hills, he found himself In the midst of
a squad of Confederate Infantry.
Discovered by them before he could
beat a retreat, he was captured In the
twinkling of an eye, to be dragged away
toward the headquarters of the south
ern commander, charged with being a
spy!
After seeing that he was securely
bound, hands and feet, he was placed
under a strong guard, to await trial in
the morning. A long, tedious night It
was to him, too,
though his first
||t and greatest con
i’^ cern was over the
d l s appointment
iXif his non-appear
:A‘ ance would bring
upon the Union
general. But It
was in vain for
him to berate
himself for any
carelessness o f
which he may
A BODY OF UNION CAVALRY,
have been guilty. The stern (act of his
captivity remained and could not be
reasoned away. He must abide by the
consequence.
The sun was beginning to show Its
bright face over the crest of the moun
tain as the drumhead court-martial was
ordered, and he was led forth to be
tried and convicted as a spy.
"Rather young to be caught In Buch
business,” remarked the grim official.
“Pray, what use have the Yanks for
such infants as you? I was not aware
they, were driven to such straits for sup
porters.”
”1 am a drummer boy, sir,” replied
Harry, proudly, “and as such, I believe,
I have ever done m; duty.”
”Oh-ho! so that’s It? Well, you look
and act like a gritty one, and the boys
say yeu resisted them last night tooth
and nail. Say, It’s a pity one so young
and smart should be shot dojrn like a
dog. Do you want to live, my little
drummer boy?”
“My life Is my country’s, sir. If I can
serve her better by dying than living
I am content.”
“Bah! You do not realize that you are
to be shot at sunset. There IS only one
hope for you. Your life shall be spared
upon one condition.”
“And that?” asked the brave boy.
"Is that you will be our drummer.
Promise to beat the drum for us as well
as you have for the Yanks and your life
shall be spared.”
“Never!" cried the young patriot. “I
would rather be shot than be a rebel.”
Perhaps the heart of the Confederate
was touched by this display of heroism,
but not sufficiently for him to mitigate
his sentence, and the little prisoner
went back to his guarded tent, doomed
to be shot as a spy at sunset.
All that livelong day the little drum
mer under sentence of death heard the
incessant bustle of camp Ilfs without,
knowing that some Important movement
wee on foot. And while he wondered
what It meant, hie thoughts would go
back to that other army and that other
chieftain, who, by now, must have
ceased to look far him. He wondered
how hts failure to return would be re
ceived. And then his thoughts took a
longer flight, going back to that old
home In the Empire State, and to the
loved ones he could not hope to see
again. Perhaps the tears glistened in
his eyes as he thought of it all; but
there was no sign of fear In his de
portment when, at the fated hour, he
was led forth to die.
"By Jove! he’s sure to break down be
fore the signal Is given,” said the
sergeant who had charge of the squad
to place him in position for the closing
act In the awful drama.
Harry heard the words, and suddenly
lifting his head, he said;
"Give me a drum, sir, and I will play
a tattoo while you shoot me.”
“Did you ever?” exclaimed the officer.
“I swear 'tls a pity to Bhoot him like
this. But orders are orders, though
you may get n!m a drum. Sawyer. He
will forget while he plays.”
By the time Harry was blindfolded a
drum was put Into his hand, when he
Instantly struck up the spirited notes
which had so often given life and hope
to his old regiment of gallant soldiers.
No doubt the boy drummer did for
get the deadly danger that menaced
him as he caught up the beloved strain
and sent out to hill and valley the music
of which he was master. And If he for
got so did hls captors for the moment.
The grim phalanx stood silent and mo
tionless while it waited for the stern
command that was to end all.
Moments are priceless sometimes, s>nd
the brief while that Harry Baldwin held
hls enemies spellbound by hls last
tattoo saved him his life, for suddenly
the clear notes of the drum were
drowned by the lusty shouts of men.
Then a body of Union cavalry flung
Itself upon the surprised Confederates,
Amazed, bewildered, confident that no
small body of trops would throw them
selves single-handed upon overwhelm
ing forces, they Broke and fled in wild
disorder.
The flight was short but decisive, and
only' a few minutes later the bandage
was torn from the drummer boy's eyes
by friendly hands, and he was borne la
triumph back to the Union army.
A GIRL HERCULES.
five Tran Old and Can Lift More Than
Twice Her Own Weight.
Up In the hills and health-giving at
mosphere of Sullivan county lives a
veteran of the civil war named John
H. Laird, and It was the fame of his
5-year-old daughter, Jessie Maud, that
dragged a World reporte rover the in
terminable hills to Hurd’s Settlement
yesterday. Jessie Maud, or Maud, as
she Is generally called, is a child over
whose face and figure painters and
sculptors would make silly folks of
themselves. The little girl was accom
panied by brothers and sisters who
ranged in age from 12 down. The three
older girls. May, Mabel and Alice, were
sometimes tired, but Maud from the
time she could walk alone has appar
ently never known what it was to reach
the limit of her strength In any one
day's exertions.
It was with great surprise that Farm
er Laird learned the mission of the re
porter who alighted at his comfortable
farm-house yesterday, but he couldn’t
conceal the pride he felt. In the barn
yard near the entrance of the barn was
a coll or spool of barbed wire weighing
slxty-two pounds.
‘‘Lift it Cal,” said the farmer to his
oldest boy. The 11-year-old lad laid
hold of the crosspins which* stuck out
at the end of the spool, and with a big
tug, which visibly tightened the cords
In the calves of htfe bare legs, raised It
a few inches from the ground.
"Now Maud,” said the father, and the
little girl planted herself squarely be
hind the big spool, which reached up
to about midway between her knees
and her thighs. Without any percepti
ble 'effort she raised the spool
and held It for several seconds. If
there had been any reddening of the
face or puffing out of the veins the spec
tacle would not have been an edifying
one. But there was nothing of the sort.
Mr. Laird then placed stones which
weighed twenty pounds on top of the
spool and asked Maud to lift It again.
The result was precisely the same, and
all evidences of violent exertion were
missing. The combined weight of the
spool and stones was two pounds more
than double the weight of the little girl
herself. The average man weighs per
haps 150 pounds, but the man who can
raise fr' ti the ground and hold In the
air 302 pounds of dead weight is a
great way above the average.—New
York World.
Two Negroes' Subterranean Swim.
Word comes from Tallahassee, Fla.,
of a miraculous escape of two negro
fishermen fron. a horrible dep.th. In
that section there is a creek that disap
pears in the ground, then flows under a
high mound, and at a distance of over
half a mile reappears with added force,
and volume. This Is a great fishing
place, and {-cores of negroes are found
Ashing at the upper end of the tunnel at
any time. Last week while a party of
twelve men were there two of them,
Bill Brooks and Josh Gill, fell Into the
water ana were almost Instantly
whirled Into the underground creek by
the swift current. Their horrified com
panions tried to rescue them, but in
vain, and they were swept away. The
party hastily rushed to the lower end
of the land where the creek reappears
and waited to recover the bodies.
Shortly both negroes shot through,
feebly struggling In the swift current,
showing slight signs of life. Several
men plunged In and brought them to
shore, and they were worked over for
an hour before they were out of dan
ger. This is the first time that such
an escape has been made. The negroes
regard it as a special act Of Providence,
and revival meetings have been started
there by preachers.
Tax for the Widowers.
The English government taxed wid
owers in 1695, births of children and
christenings In 1783, deaths In 1783, mar
riages in 1695, and 1784, and the latter
tax. In the shape of license duty. Is still
retained.
A Kankakee man tried to drown a
cat by wading out Into the river and
putting It under the water. The cat
came back, but the man took cramps
and was drowned. J, > , .-.'0^,..- ;
UNDER SUSPICION. '
Uni Ho Had a Dnt:.| Itratk At oat
Him.
I was on a Sixth avenue elevated
traln«the other day when a woman with
a big satchel to carry asked for the
New Haven boat, writes M. Quad In
Detroit Free Press. I offered my ser
vices to pilot her for live or six blocks
and take care of the satchel, and, after
looking me over with a critical eye,
she said:
“Young man, you don't look so very
Innocent, but I think I'll trust you and
take the chances.”
I saw that she feared I would bolt
with the satchel, and therefore took it
slow and did not get a foot ahead of
her. When we arrived at the steam
boat dock she took out a dime and ex
tended It to me with the remark:
“It wasn’t much of a walk, but I'm
not one of the stingy sort. I hope you’ll
make good use of It.”
“Thanks, ma’am, but I can’t take
your money,”1 replied.
“Then what did you come along for?”
“Just to do you h favor."
“I don’t belleye It! 'Taint at all
natural!”
“Well, you see, I brought you here all
right and refuse your money.”
“Yes, I see it, and I'm snummed If I
kin make out whether you Intended to
pick my pocket or run away with my
satchel. Young man, you orter quit
your evil ways and behave yourself.”
“Yes, I’m thinking of It," I replied.
"That’s right—keep right on thlnkln',
and If you ever come up to Connecticut
inquire for Mrs. Daniel Williams, and
If it’s about noontime I’ll ask you to sit
down to dinner. I’m obleeged, even If
you did Intend to rob me, and If ever I
hear of your being hung I'll tell folks
you had a decent streak about you arter
all.”

Our Odessa correspondent writes:
“Nearly 200 Jews, rendered homeless
and destitute by the terrible conflagra
tion at Brest-LItovsk, have arrived In
this city, where they have received
every attention and succor from the
Hebrew Benevolent association, says
London Dally News. It Is now ascer
tained that the total number of lives
lost Is 137, but the search for the
missing is not yet complete. The town
of Brest-LItovsk consisted of sixty-four
blocks, and of these forty-nine, or about
1,500 houses, have been destroyed.
The refugees here relate the follow
ing tragic Incident, which shows with
what fearful and sweeping rapidity the
flames rushed through the wooden
built houses: The magistrate of the
second district was driving from one
part of the town to another, the flames
roaring behind him. The coachman
put his horses to a gallop, but, notwith
standing this, they were caught up at
a street corner and burned to death
magistrate, coachman and horses. One
poor, half-demented creature among
the refugees tells how her sister, who
escaped the flames, went to seek for her
only son and his three children. They
were found burned to death. The poor
woman lost her reason and Is now In
an asylum for the insane. Both Jews
and Christians in this city have shown
the most unstinted generosity and sym
pathy by sending large stores of pro
visions and other requisites to Brest
LItovsk, the railway company carrying
everything free.”
A Somnambulistic Rider.
Miss Mary Smiley, daughter of Theo
dore Smiley, who lives near Ferguson
ville, N. Y., is a somnambulist and has
had some queer adventures lu her ca
reer as sleep-walker. Last week Miss
Smiley’s father presented her with a
bicycle on her fifteenth birthday, and
also his consent to don a bloomer cos
tume. The young lady spent consider
able time last week in practice, and
after a five-mile ride the other day re
tired at night greatly fatigued. Shortly
after midnight Mr. Smiley was awak
ened by hearing some one pass out of
the front door and down the walk.
Looking out of the window the farmer
saw his daughter, arrayed In her bicy
cle suit, mounting her wheel for a spin
down the road. After taking quite a
ride she returned to the house and was
awakened by a douche of cold water.
She was much astonished by her es
capade.
Author of “Rrn Hur" on Bloomam.
Gen. Lew Wallace says the future of
the bicycle depends on the woman rid
ers. “If the use of wheels were con
fined to the men,” he says, “the fad
might spend Itself in a season. But
when the women take hold of the bi
cycle its future is secure.” Gen. Wal
lace believes bicycle racing will event
ually supersede horse racing, but never
of course chariot racing of the Ben Hur
kind. Ladies who ride will be inter
ested to know that Gen. Wallace is an
enthusiastic advocate of the fair cycler,
and that he approves of bloomers,
“about which there is nothing immod
est, it being merely their present oddity
of appearance that now excites com
ment. Why, in the Tyrol the women
wear skirts coming just below the knee,
and no one, not even an entire strang
er, looks askance.”
Potato Faff.
Potato puff is delicious with creamed
chicken. To one pint of hot mashed
potato add one teaspoonful of salt, one
tablespoonful of peper, half that quan
tity of celery salt, and hot milk enough
to moisten well. When partly cool add
the yelks of two eggs beaten well and
then put in the whites beaten stiff.
Bake ten minutes in a hot oven and,
it comes out in a golden brown merin
gue that Delmonico might envy. T1 at
is an especially good way to servr old 1
potatoes that have to be out up a good j
deal in paring them.

| BEFORE A SCHOOL JUSTICE.
**• Brlb* Didn't Work nnd Her Con*
faction Vu n Failure.
Something dreadful had happnnd at
the Quoenvllle district school. May
Oreene, the belle of the village, had
■muggled her Sunday sash out of the
bureau, and "unbeknownst to her
mother’* had worn It to school. Her
triumph, however, was shortlived. She
had hung the sash most carefully on a
hook In the cloak room while she ran
out, at ret-ess, for a good romp. On her
return she was dismayed to And that It
had been cut In two pieces. Every
scholar was carefully questioned, but
no one, of course, knew anything about
It. The teacher accordingly announced
that when the afternoon session should
open she would lay all lessons aside
and hold a court of Investigation. She
herself would be the judge. May
Oreene should be the plaintiff, and
every scholar in turn should come up
Into a witness box, rigged up for the oc
casion, and tell exactly what he knew
about the matter. She also said that If
any one would confess hls wrongdoing
before the opening of court he would
be pardoned and all proceedings
stopped.
Two guilty boys, discarded beaux of
the gay coquette, were now pale with
dismay. They had told untruths when
privately questioned, and now they
feared that they would not he able to
brave them out before the awful oourt
ordeal—especially since It had begun
to be whispered around that they
knew more of the matter than had at
first appeared. They, therefore hit
upon the following expedient. The
youngest child In the school, little An
nie Cork, was the pet of the county. If
she now could only be Induced to con
fess to the cutting of the sash, surely
she would be pardoned on account of
her popularity. She was therefore bo
set by the guilty youngsters, who, by
dint of dire threats and large bribes,
and by urging confession upon her as
a duty, finally secured her bewildered
consent "to confess.”
When tho afternoon bel lrang the
scholars came in promptly, looking
askance at the awful witness-box and
at the mutilated finery floating out
from the teacher’s desk. The judge was
about to open court when In come tbe
criminals triumphantly leading the In
nocent child between them. They In
formed the judge that Annie Cork had
come to confess, and officiously placing
her in the witness-box, they withdrew
to their seats. The child’s helpless at
titude was too much for the tender
hearted judge, who took her by the
hand and said gently: “Well, dear,
have you really come to confess?”
“Yeth,” she faltered, oppressed by
the earnest stillness In the room; but,
gaining courage from the judge’s kind
ly manner, “Yeth, teacher—I’th com*
to confeth—I’th come to confeth that f
didn't do It.”—Philadelphia Times.
WAR OP ROSES,
The Perfume Drove the Peltor front
the Pulpit.
A young clergyman from Boston
preached In a little Jersey town on last
Sunday. Everything was made as fes
tive as possible for the visitor. The
members of the congregation turned
out in their best clothes, and the
church was elaborately decorated with
flowers, the pulpit being a mass of
June roses.
But in spite of all these efforts, when
the visiting clergyman entered * the
pulpit he looked about him with dis
may. Almost instantaneously he gave
vent to a series of emphatic sneezes.
Then stepped down from the pulpit
and, beckoning to a neighboring elder,
whisperlngly confessed that he could
not proceed with the services unless
the roses were removed. "I have rose
cold,” he added, by way of explanation.
There was nothing for it but to divest
the church of all its floral trimmings,
after which the minister re-entered the
pulpit and the services proceeded.—Ex.
