HcTCfiixtox, Kan., Aug. IL Ex
Senator John J. Ingslls was the prin
cipal attraction at the 0. A. R, re
union heie yesterday. Among other
things he said:
"It has been reported to me that
there were many members of .the
Grand Army who voted to bring about
the present condition of affairs "and
place the party in power which has
placed Hoke Smith in a position to cut
off the 1,100 aoldiers already dropped
from the pension rolls in Kansas.
He then spoke of politics being
tarred from these reunions, and said
It meant that the organization should
.not be used for securing any partisan
advantage. He said that no comrade
need renounce his political convic
tions, however, but had a right to be
long to whatever party he chose.
"That is what that war was fought
for," he continued, "and I stand here
a I stand everywhere, aa I have stood
always, as I expect to stand always
In the future, on this platform and on
every platform as a gepublioan."
in referring to tb policy of the
present administration, be said: "I
want you to understand that tfie pen
sion system of the country Q to be i
challenged from this Umi forward. I
The nrfht of any man to be there is to
J&iiJt4 nd Uil liberality of the
system is to Be stopped. I Mve often
wandered how I should have feint
tbe results of ths war should hv
been otherwise"
Here he broke away from the non-
rlltlcal program and aaid: "What
do blame are the men who believed
the other way and allowed this party
to come into power again. I do not
Sretend to aay that it desires a restore
on of tbe old condition of things,
and dissolution of the union; I
don't pretend to say that it would
bring about to-day what it
ought to accomplish, but I do affirm
that to-day as much as at any time in
the past it continues to affirm that
God alone knows which was right in
that controversy.' I say to you that
unlets there was some right in that
controversy, then the war in which
you were engaged was nothing more
than a acrsp in a disreputable house
or a contest between Sullivan and
Corbett for the pugilistic champion
ship of the world.''

THE SPECTRAL BOAT.
Th! story is true so far as the nar
rator's responsibility Is concerned.
By the narrator I mean the pilot.
His nam is Kinney, pilot of the Bat
on Rouge. The Baton Rouge was
tbe vlft, elegant steamer (Bixby
master. Elton purser)" plying be
tween St Louis and New Orleans,
I went aboard the Baton Rouge at
Si Loula Bixby introduced mo to
Kinney. In Kinney I found a short
thick-bodied man with half gray and
blue eyes, tawny oolored mustache.
goatee, full choeka ruddy with
health, and the natural color of one
whose hair was mixed red and brown.
Kinney stood watch six hour off
and six hours at tbe wheeL He knew
tbe historical points of the river, and
he pointed them out one after an
other. '
Kinney turned his wheel With i
spasmodic? violence and rang the en
glneer s bells to low port" to fast

with such rapidity that the mechanic
below wanted, by the Infernal to
know what he meant Presently we
rounded the bend.
"See that corner of the island
there?" asked Kinney.

"There's where the bones of
the
old Alonzo Child are laid."
"Well?"

was taken out and her hull pasted
into postessloa of an old chap that
owned a plantation Juit 'round Bayou
hara, below here. He bad a land
boiler and engine, and used it for
boiling sugar and pressing tana
Colonel Hubbard burned the sugar
bouse as he passed by with his de
tachment of soldlera but the boiler
and engine was saved ic a somewhat
disturbed condition. The old fellow'
name' was De Soto.
"De Soto put his old engine, and
boiler on the hull of the Alonzo
Chllda and she was made to travel
up and down, Inside the Confederate
line of course. She went between
Port Hudson and Vicksburg. At
that time I was a vub pilot on ahicr
steamer, and I used to see her. One
day I heard she exploded or snagged,
and everybody on board was lost
The circumstances of the disaster no
one ever knew. A few bloated bodies
and some charred pieces of the old
craft's timbers floating down the river
indicated the extent of the -horror.
"Two years ago I was standing
watching alone in the pilot house,
The river was up and we were . push
ing the gray, muddy waters aside
under a full head of steam. I had
just pulled the wheel over to make
the bend, when I saw a steamer head
ing straight for ua It appeared to
me that she came out of tho bank
rather than up the river, and I no
ticed at the moment that she was a
strange craft to me. Well. I blowed
once to pass to port and steered off to
tbe west shore. Giving her the ad
vantage of the backwater, I watched
her, and presently I saw ' from her
whistle two escapes . of steam. By
that I saw that she had blown twice.
although I had not heard the blasts.
So I blew twice and reversed mv

the came headln' right for us, and
gettin' so near that the danger of a
smash was imminent I blew an
alarm blast and stopped and as she
came nearer, bidding fair to strike us
just forward of the starboard wheel. I
rang the bell to back hard. In the
second of interval necessary to re
verse the engine 1 looked at too ap
proaching craft and noted that her
spotid was teri'lfle and that she made
no sound. I closed my eyes for a
moment in order that my sight should
not interfere with my ears. There
was no noUe of escaping steam, no
beat of paddle wheela I opened
them again. She was upon ua and,
with a bare thought of the passengers
belowmy own family I closed them
again.
in that second of mental agony I
heard the piano dowa ia the msia ia

Just then the speaking tube from
the captain s office was sounded, and
heard the hollow, reverberating tone
of Bixby's voice through fifty feet oi

at the woodpile where we were till it
was done.
That means ten hours, anyway.

get by the bend about midnight"
Ten hours did not measure the time
of our delay, and I was sleeping ob
llvious of ghosts and regardless ot
Kinney's spook steamboat when
sharp rap at my stateroom door
brought me out of dreamless slumber.
"Mr. Kinney say -Would you all
please, sir, come Into the pilot
nouser "
It war the voice of the nightwatch
speaking to me as an individual and
assuring me that none o myself was
neglected. Living a hasty affirmative,
1 arose and hurried to the hurricane
deck.
"I say," he said. 'It's nearly
o'clock, and we are going . to pass the
wreck. You wanted to see the ghost
oi a steamboat I don't waul to be
alone and I want a skeptic with me.
Light your pipe and sit down."
Kinney bove the wheel over to port
and the jackstaff of the boat could be
seen, as the "night bawk" swung for
the pilot's eye , to sweep tbe horizon
cut away such rays of light as pene
trated the cottonwood forests on the
Louisiana shore.

in surprise tor l nad not heard any
one enter, i couia define In the half
gray light of the morning the figure
of a man with smoothly shaver, face-
apparently a youth.
"The ghost" said Kinney, still
peering into the space beyond.
Do you expect any?' asked the
stranger.

I looked in the direction he pointed.
ana sure enough, about a quarter of
a mile away were the red and green
lights of an approaching steamer. I
knew enough of tbe laws of the road
on water to comprehend that she was
coming toward us, and I could also
see she was making tremendous head
way. Kinney's eye s as I saw them
flash, were fixed upon her. He
neither moved the wheel nor stirred a
hand to give warning.
Kinney, " I cried, 'that is not the
ghost; it is a steamer. It is the
White of tbe Vicksburg line, bound
up. ' bhe is to pass here about this
time. For the love of heaven, give
iue signau ".
At such a time one scarcely knows
what he says or does. The two great
vessels, each of them moving at the
rate of fourteen or fifteen miles an
hour, ' seemed doomed to crash unon
each other. I knew the White was.

our own ooat were nearly 200 souls.
i tried to wrest the wheel from him:
but a strong arm swept us both aside.
ana the stranger seized the spokes.
There was a jingling of bells, a
screeebmg of whistles, a mad cry oi
human voices, a leaping of flames
over light woodwork that cracked
and seemed to laugh with joy ovei
the destruction that was being
wrought ,
But over it all I heard one voice Id
articulate agony, whose wild, agonis
ing accents 1 shall never forget
Then, in the flash of flame. I saw the
face of the person who had uttered it
It was the stranger aj; the wheel. On

Alonzo Chllda" He was illumined
by the blaze and his eyes shown
brighter than the fire Itself.
"I am punished! My God, is it
not enough? I was her pilot! It is
the Alonzo Chllds!" he screamed.
For a second he towered, like a
giants high over the eight-foot wheel-,,
then, throwing his arms about his
head, he fell prone upon the floor.
Already the glass windows of the
pilot house were cracking with the
heat I knelt beside the prostrate
form. There was no heart-beat
I looked up at Kinney. He was
standing with his arms folded, his
face perfectly calm, put pale as death.
At that moment the flames burst
Into the pilot house and their hot
breath blistered my hands as I held
them before my eyes. 4 had no feel

physical pain. Iteath bad no terrei
