The above poem wag written by Oca
W. II. Lytle on tbe eve of the bat
He of ChicamauoNt. When it was
Almost flnihhed he dropped his pencil ;
and said to Col. Kealf, who hharcd the
tent with him: "I will be killed in
battle to morrow." He then read the
written portion and Col. Rcalf pre
vailed upon him toiinish the poem. This
the General did wM.h perfect calm: He
was killed in battle the day following:
just aa he bad predicted. There was
no. place in war for a man with such a
beautiful mind.

their address while in the city attend

There will also be a bureau of infor
mation cstiiblihlicd, and all soldiers will
be informed where they eqn procure
places to stop at reasonable rates while
Attending the fair if they do not wish
to go into camp. Thousands of the
veterans with tlulr families and friends
will attend this print encampment and
the Columbian exposition. They de
sire to meet and greet their comrades
once tnoro before the final muster-out,
And they have requested that theso ar
rangements be made for their comfort
And information during the world's
fair in 1893, beginning May 1 and con
tinuing through the fair. The general
management of the encampment is in
the hands of well-known comrades, and
is endorsed and mrp irted by the lead'
ing men of the nation. It meets with
the hearty approbation of the fair
management, rind will undoubtedly be
carried through successfully.
Objections to the Date.
The Philadelphia Tress reports that
the date chosen for the national en'
cnmprr.cnt, Sept. 20, conflicts with the
time for the grand union of the Army
of the Cumberland atChk'lcamauga. If
both are held at the same time it is
quite certain that many thousands of
Western veterans and families who
otherwise would go to Washington,
prefer to attend the other gathering
And witness the ceremonies that will
take place in connection with the dedi
CAting of the monument upon the great
national park series of bat Jcficlds in
Tennessee and Georgia.

the reunion at Washington.

During a shooting match in the pres

latter noticed to his astonishment, that
the heads of sparrows were th'e favor
ite butt of the marksmen, who but sel
dom missed their aim. Whereupon he
declared that it was far more difficult
to hit an egg. Sir Peter laughed at the
supposition, but the Sirdar stood his
ground and the matter was put to the
test. An egg was suspended on a wall
Aud the soldiers fired at it, but, strange
to say, not one of them hit the egg.
The Governor and his suite kept their
maintenances and excused the non-success
of the firing party on the ground
of the difficulty of the thing. At last
A ball hit the thread to which the egg
Was fastened and it fell to the ground
without breaking. Kow the mystery
wa solved; the cunning Afghan had
used a blows egg., and the feather

A Horn Colonel.
On a certain occasion a Yankee officer
cavalierly rode up to tho gate of the
lute Judge E. I. Bullock, during one of
tho periods of Federal occupation of
Kentucky, and asked a little colored
bov who lived at the house, to which
the boy replied in a matter of-courso
way: "Col. Bullock." "Col. Bui
lock?" I aid the Federal. "And how
did he come to be a Colonel, will you
tell mo'?" In. some wonderment, but
with positive assunvn'e, tho boy re
plied: "Why, ho was born a Colonel,
sir." And truly ho was.

A. P. Hovey. Tho Department Com

Death of Two Veterans.
John II. Whitney died Sunday, Nov.

811 Second avenue, New York, from

He was 09 years old.
Vansrir's "Oood Times" Fund.
Vassar is probably the only college
that has a fund to bo used In giving its
students "good times." For several
years past a sum lia been given lue
college by a New lork gentleman to
be used for such a purpose. It is known
as tha "f ree money," and when parties
of students start for a day at Lake
Mononk or some of the other beautiful
places along tho Hudson it is the "free
money" that turn the wheels.

we seriously doubt In this reform

the point where there can be no

Tbe government ownership and con
trol of railroads to one of the growing

Centralization in the hands of all the

seem to be aa bad as centralisation in
the hands of a few individuals, with a
power greater almost than the govern
ment Itself. In Australia the govern
ment own the railroads. It only
costs a person (6.50 to ride 1,000
miles. Commutation rates for local
service are still lower. A workman
can ride to and from his work a dis
tunco of 6 miles for 2 cents a trip, 12
miles for 4 cents. 13 miles for 6 cents,
24 miles for 8 cents, SO miles for 10
cents. Yearly tickets good for 80
raile trips are sold for 117.40. This
is the kind of centralization we need
lu this country. It centralizes bread
and meat into the mouths of the work

backs, And yet low as the rates
seem to be, we are fully assured that
there is a fair profit in the business.
