Ornphlc Account of Stirring Scenes Witnessed uti llto llnttlcflclrt ninl lu Cniup VetcriuiH of the Kelirllloii He clto lixpcrlcucc * of Thrlllliie Nature. "We didn't know , " said the doctor , "as much about abdominal surgery In the Civil War as the doctors do now , but wo wore not such blunderers us some of the modern fellows seem to bo- Hove.c treated In all thousands of abdominal wounds , aud lu the four years of the wnr when there was a good deal of shooting with largo bul lets , we learned a good deal. It Is true that at the beginning of the war the great majority of surgeons hud lit tle or no knowledge of surgery , and most of us were reluctant to perform any operations outside of the.range of i work nt home. , "Through this reluctance to perform operations , or because of the Impres sion that a man shot through the abdo men could not recover , many wounded men shot through the body were count ed no better than dead men. But there were surprises. I remember the cnso of Michael ICctiHcr of Company C , First Kentucky volunteer Infantry. At Shiloh - loh Kcuser was shot through the body on the Hue of the belt , as his orderly reported , and was regarded as fatally wounded simply because the bullet had gone clear through him. But tbrco days after the battle the man whom the company mourned as dead , or as good as dead , walked Into camp using Ids musket as a crutch. He declined to return to hospital , was treated In com pany quarters , recovered speedily , an 1 became one of the mpst robust men In Jhe company , serving to the end of the war and experiencing no trouble what ever from his wound. "I can match that , " said the Colonel. "In that same battle of Slilloh Lieut , "lacob n. Smith of the Second Ken tucky volunteer Infantry , now a briga dier general In the Philippines , receiv ed what was regarded an a fatal wound. A mlnle bullet struck n largo gold watch which he carried In the fob pocket of his trousers splintered tbu watch to fragments , carrying some of these fragments with bits of his clothIng - Ing Into his body. The bullet came out Just above the pelvis , and when the doctors saw that the pieces of brass and of the porcelain of the watch face had penetrated the wound they took It for granted that Smith would die , and practically he received no medical at tention for three days. "Then one of tlie olllcers of the regi ment toolr charge of him , put him In comfortable quarter * , and , noticing that the scepago of the wound cuuiu from both sides , reported the case to the division surgeon. Thereafter Smith received the most careful attention an l completely recovered. He entered the regular army , experiencing no Incon venience from his abdominal wound , and Is now serving hi an Important command In the Philippines. " "There were hundreds of such cases , " said a Confederate colonel , who ut one time commanded one of Gen. .lob Stu art's cavalry regiments. "Wounded men always nuzzled me. Sometimes a man with a mere scratch dloJ. Again a fellow that was apparently all torn to pieces got well. But wounded men puzzled me no more than wounded horses. 1 rode a horse thiough a good part of the war which was In no way alToctcd by the roar of camion or rattle of musketry. But on one occasion In an engagement In \ 'rglnla ' I charged on a Union Infantryman and tried to ride him down. 1 used my.sword , and , as 1 believed , skillfully , but the Yankee kept my horse out of effective striking distance by pricking him constantly with the bayonet , backing all the time toward his own lines. "Finally I saw that I could not reach him with my sword , and I drew my Colt revolver. Taking deliberate aim , I flrcd just at the moment that the Union soldier came to a charge bayo net , and plunged forward with a loud 'Kchoo. ' The horse threw lib head up and the ball IntendeJ for the man passed between the horse's ears , under the leather of the bridle , cutting the skin to the bone. The horse was stun ned , shocked , aud It was with the greatest dllllculty that I could change his course to our own linos. Subse quently he was worthless as a cavalry Horse , necuuso or ins tear or musket firing nnd of bayonets. " "Gen. Green B. Haum , " said the Ma- iJor , "told me that up to the day of the battle of Corinth the horse he roe had passed through several engagements , nnd showed no Indication of fear of cannon or musketry Ihlng. but In the charge of Oct. 4 his horse was shot through the bast of the ear. As soon as he was struck he threw his head down , trying to nib the wound with his foot or leg. Uver after that lie Vrould shy at the noise of a single mus ket , and could tuit bo ridden with safety - ty near a battery or firing lino. He i phowcd such fear nt the approach of a 'r.oldlgrsltb ' a gun that he was useless | u the army , and was sent home. "A Third New York cavalry man told that on the way to Kort Fisher his Ine ior0e became sea hick. Before that the liorae was a ready wader , was ready to Jump Into the river and swim acrogg , iio matter how turbulent tUo stream was , but afterward he would feel his way carefully when taken near the water , and if forced Into the stream would keep near the shore , " "That reminds me , " s ald the Cnptnln. . "of n monkey that camels a prisoner I to Battery B , First llhode Island nr- { llleiy. In one of the Wilderness flank movements one of our boys was sitting on the porch of n farm house , when the monkey slipped up un.l bit him on the leg. He grabbed the little chap , and I saw the monkey at the battle of Sail or's Creek sitting up on a box of crack- era which had been broken open , and ho was shying hard tack at the boys and grinning In tlie most comical man- nor.In uti engagement however he was a great coward , and would hide under any available thins ? . Ordinarily ho rode on the off wheel horse of the battery , but In battle he crawled Insl ie of the driver's blouse or shirt , If pos sible , and exhibited tlie mpst abject fear. "Our horses were often nervous wlien wounded , but If the battle was on and there was great excitement they Deem ed to be controlled by much the same spirit as wounded men. At all events , If they were slightly wounded they ro- covwcd from their nervousness , forgot their woundH , and had as much dash nnd spirit In the forward movement aa before they were wounded. If there was no fighting , or If there was a re treat , they continued In n state of ner vous excitement. " Chicago Inter Ocean. ' 'cnr-il tiv n Cnlf. J. Q. Beckley , who served with the Fourth Michigan volunteers , recently told how u calf scared 100 Union sol diers. He said : "Wo were down lu West Virginia , about 100 of us detached t from our regiment and doing special duty looking for stray guerrillas who were 'continually running through our lines , administering a blow and then running away. Isfot any of us had been within gunshot of the llriig | line an I few had talked to one who had. How ever , Just as often as we bivouacked we were frightened. "One morning rumor came that n big squad of guerrilla cavalry had been seen the night before only a short Uls- .i , OAi.r. lance ahead of us.Ve were not out to retreat , even though we were so afraid of our live * that we all wished wo bad never enlisted so we kept mov ing : . Suddenly a terrible gallopln ; ; was heard Just In front of us and b yon > l a small hill. We/ thought It was a cav alry charge and formed to meet It. "It fell my 'lot to kneel down lu front with my bayonet pointed at an angle to receive the charging enemy. Men all about me wore In similar nosturos. I suppose , but I knew of nothing but the steady gallop , gallop of the thousand J honfs that would soon pound tin- life ' out of me. I gritted my teeth to await i the charge , though I < uiakcd as with thi' nn'ue. I recall the man next me saying , 'Qood-by , old fellow. ' "I began to wonder why the charge wasn't made and over with. Just as I began to get brave the pomi'ling hoofs sounded again.'Steady , men ; don't move , ' cautioned our leader. Then prancing over the top of the hill canio a good-for-nothing brlndlc calf. " Chicago cage Record. , Fnltttnl IIT l nciiiy't "It seldom , If ever , happen ? that guns car-'ured by an army are used for the purpose of Drlng a salute when the vic tors are about to go away , " said J. M. Kortr of Company G , Seventh Iowa In fantry , to some members of his old reg iment , whom he had met for the first time since the clone of the war. Con- tinning , Mr. Kortu said : "I remember a llerce fight we had on the river at Columbus , Ky. , in 1SM. ( At that time we had the gunboats Taylor nnd Tyler , and they were hummers. Long about daylight we noticed a large number of rebels on the shore. A short time afterward they opened fire on us with rifles and cannon. When the fight be came a little too hot for our comfort we pare them two broadsides wliIHi threw them Into a panic. In less than thirty minutes we had dismantled their guns and caused them to run up the white Hag as a token of surrender. A I ' few weeks afterward the guns we cap tured In this light were nsel to flro n p.ilr.ti. to us as we Fi't out for St. ( I Louis.
