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. , 't 1 Telephone 176 iHK5fi9BaSEu?T?4lIHr OFFIOE 1001 0 Street.
