I felt tho cold ruuszle of a navy six pte&sed fi-mly against my templa and In language that m&do nilne seem a poor phantom of 'cusa' words, I was com manded to get up. At that moment a light Oared up and I found the Intruders were two ferocious-looking confederate cavslrymen.

There were only two doton of the confederates and they bad nearly 14 prisoners and horses, bo sides, they were surrounded by thousands of our soldiers, so tbey didn't stop for seotiles except to grab them and take them along. By day we had covered a score of miles, and those Rough Riders had us, geneial and all, safely outside tho northern lines. But wc didn't stop thein; It wasn't until lata that evening that anybody got any treakfat. 1 spent several months in prison and when 1 was exchanged I went west. Indians were tamer than that life In pastoral Virginia." "I didn't find the west so very tame," spoka up Frank Howell, a New Yorker, prominent in telegraph circles. "In the early eighties I waa at Kansas City, out of a Job. 1 wlrod the superin tendent ot the local division that 1 wanted a J..U Just as fur w.t aa things went. He tald h'.'d give It to in, and sent tan to Gunnison, Colo. I found there thai he'd tent me tho other sldo of where I wanted to go. The first evriunrf I was there I was sitting on tku veranda of the hotel, adniir- tig the Rocky ir.oui.tain, roaRt, when a big negro, who, I found later, worked In the hotel, came through lh open wir.dow nearby with the speed of a telegram and right ut his heels was a cowboy with a gun. cutting the dut out from under the neg. o at every Jump. It was a beautiful raco down the strt, but fcai will beat lun and th'j colored man won out. "There was great excitement in Gunnison that night, because they arrcsLtd tho cow boy. Fcoplu were astonished. But it seemed there had Just been erect d a very fine new Jail and the authorities wero anx ious to try It on somebody. Bo they held a court-mariial, cr something, over the cowboy and sentenced him to Jail for ten days. I ctsyed In fiui.iiison about a month; that ws enough for one lifetime, and when I was about to go I looked uround for tho cowboy to any good-by to him. I was told be was rtill in Jail, although his leiin had t spired thrco weeks before. So i went up there. The prisoner was fixed up like a prince in a room handsomer than any thing in the hotel. He was pluyl:ij poker with Kevcrnl choice Hplrita und In a corner ws a big washtub fuil of he, with a dozen bottlra of b r tluuiint; around' in it all furnished by to uounty! Tha Julr was us tickled over the satisfaction his accom modations had. given tbo cowboy as was ever a Swls landlord. He pointed with pride to the fact that, although his term had expired, tho cowboy preferred to stay there to punehiiig cattle on the range. 1 didn't Momo him." 'I tried it west myself for about a min ute." mused Jones of Chattanooga, who la one of th advance guard of telegraph: is.
