good fellow, spends money freely and never
tries to get ahead of any ono except 11 rail

from Cincinnati to New Orleans which
had the name of William Hill on it. Tho
conductor on the train first collected alt
tho tickets from tho passengers in tho Pull
man car, and later came through asking
tho passengers their names. When ho
reached Mr. Smith's section he said,
"What Is your name" "William Hill,"
promptly replied Smith.

conductor came in. He looked at Hilly,
then at the bag. Then ho said quickly:
"Voit told mo your name was William
Hill, to corrchHiud with your ticket. What

er than a Hash Hilly replied, "You blamed

A New Story.
4-sii?."
In the Lincoln Wijijkly Hkkali of March i.th, will
be begun the publication of a powerful story by J. D.Cal
houn, the well known newspaper man and writer. The story
deals with that obscure and hitherto overlooked feature of
Southern life during the war the experience of the private
soldier and the poor citizen. It dispels with vigorous rude
ness the popular glamour with which so-called chivalry has
enveloped tlve southern side of the rebellion in luminous haze
and exposes one of its miserable phases with pitiless fidelity
to facts. The story is written in Mr. Calhoun's strongest
vein and will in the Herald for three or four months.
Special subscriptions, four months for 50 cents, will be taken
in'conncction. Those who wish a new and startling insight
behind the smoke-covered and blood-begrimed scenes of the
war, as pictured by the average writers of both history and
fiction, should send in their names and money at once, in time
for the first issue of March 14th.
