Cl. Mann's So enth Michi gai was or
dared to form mid alma'ge. Whim n yell
and ahurrah tlio Seventh rodedown upon
four times tlmoir number. Time hfehwny
was time only clear route. Those advancing -
ing over the fields were obstructed by
ditches , fences , hedges , and walls , mmd
time line was sonietiniL's alnmust a triangle.
Diann pushed on until a heavy atomic wall
flanked by "stake mid rider , , fences bar
red his way , and here his rcgmtont halted
and fought time Cemfedcratcs on the other
side. It was n conflict at such close range
that aliiost every man shot was burned
by time tlanie of the powder , Time Seventh -
enth had to fall back front time position
upon time support of the Fifth , mmd white
those two lmnd tlmcir hands full an officer
in time First , which regiment was tlmen in
reserve , suddenly cried out :
Great heavens ! we will all be swallowed -
lowed upi"
Just coining over the ridge in their
front was a whole brigade of cavalry
formed fn column regiments. To meet
timis now force Custer had asingto battery
and time ono rogimont. 'lima old First
did not mm bor over 500 mein , and when
ordered up for time charge amid formed in
column of batalions it seemed as if every
matt was riding to Imis death ,
As the First advanced at a trot with
drawn sabers they were greeted with
alioua of derision , Then the little command -
mand closed up the horses passed from a
trot to a galop , and as it hurled itself
against five to ono it opened a wide lane
through time entire , force. There wore
five minutes of smokeand flash and fury ,
and lol when the smoke lifted the Old
First held the field and the Confederates
had been driven. Custer said of this
charge in his official report :
" 1 carrot find language to express my
high appreciation of the gallantry and
daring displayed by the officers and men
of time First Michigan. They advanced
to the charge of a vastly superior force
withn as much onion and precision as if
going upon a dross parade , and I chnl-
lunge time annals of warfare to produce a
more brilliant or successful charge of cav-
alry. "
Man writers upon military affairs have
scouted time idea of sabre-cuts and cavalry -
ry charges. Lot such men hunt up the
reports of company commanders after time
Gettysburg fight mid Bee how they road.
Over seventy men in tire Michigan regi
meats engaged during a single day are
reported , "Sabre cut on the head , " In
time cavalry fights or that eventful week
the sabre killed and wounded at least
1,000 men , and the troopers' pistols may
be credited withasmany more. Custer's
loss in one brigade in this action was 542 ,
being as great a number as any single
regiment contained. The Sixth was supporting -
porting tune flanks and the battery , and
though making no charge , its loss was
severe , and Col. Gray received espec-
Ian mention in official reports.M.

An Electric Cooking Stove.
In the recent electric exhibition in
Vienna tliero was shown a thermo-elec.
tric stove. It consists of thirty super-
rposed concentric rings of tlmirtytwo cle
nmentscachthnringabeinginsulatedfrom
one another by 11ieans of asbestos. The
clonments consists of arm alloy of two dice.
trically opposed metals , ( thu patent not
being conpletod time inventor would not
toll ono tho' exact composition ) , which
fillies at 600 degrees centigrade ; on heat.
ing this alloy an electric current is goner.
ated , Time conmbustuon stove is ) laced iii
time center , and a considerable space
separates the stove froln the concentric
Finga , e0 that limo Imeatiun of the alloy is
nut effected direct , and time temperature
to which time alloy is heated does not exceed -
coed 300 to 400 degrees coutigmde. Each
cormcoitr'c ' ring has its own terminal
screw , so that the whole or part of time
current cam be used , The current hag an
eluctro emotive force of twenty volts and
twelve ohms resistance , but ( and this is
am important point if time stove , as is tune
case in winter , is apt bunting all day ,
sutldcuent currout power can be obtained
to charge a nunbor of accuitulntors sufi
eiont for domestic lightning purposes , or
to drive a 5111011 motor for domestic work ,
without any extra expanse.
