1 BATTLE TRAGEDIES.
OFFICERS WHO HAVE BEEN KILLED
BY THEIR OWN MEN.
Cold Blooded -Murders by Soldier*
That -Were Inspired by Malice or a
Spirit of Revenge -Marshal Bowline
Nearly Met This Fate.
Tragic indeed is every incident con-
nected with the battlefield, but more so
are some of the mysterious occurrences
which have ()Mimes taken place during
a campaign and which might be put
down us cold blooded murders. It seems a
very unlikely thing that in the heat of a
hard fought conflict the origin of a man's
death cnu be determined -that is to say,
Nvb ether_ he died by the hands of one of
his comrades or by those of the encrust:
consequently men, with a grievance
against their officers have often made
use of such opportunities to wipe off old
scores and have gone undiscovered.
A notable instance of fhis occurred just" _
before the Wipe of Woerth in the Fran-
co-Prussian N ur. A certain offieer of con-
siderable repute had got himself . gener-
ally disliked by his perseverance in bully-
ing those under , him. A few days before
this, the first -great battle of the war,
when the French were nearing tho border
in their hopeless endeavor to reach Ber-
lin, a rennet' ran through the camp late
:It night that the Prussians were ad-
re:icing and would shortly be up. In-
: taut:y eandemoniam reigned, aud scont-
he; perfies were sent out in all directions.
Oot, of these was under the officer in
question, and when some way from camp
INV ns fired upon, the bullet bringing hiin
['own. The Frenchmen, thinking they had
, et into an ambush, retired, firing at an
i!:visible foe as they (lid so, but as no
fee:titer shots ware received they grew
. Oiurageons, again end, after being re-eu-
&weed, advanced to the fatal spot. The
body of the officer was found, but not so
that et his assailant. who had evidently
esea ped unscathed.
On returning to the camp it was found
that no trace of the enemy had been 418 -
covered. In fact, at that time the Prus-
sians were far awny from the spot en the
other sideof the Woerth. Aeeerdingly a
peat mortem examination was loot& on the
offieer's body and a French service bullet
extracted thevefrom, but the murderer
was never detected, although he was
doubtless in the camp and itad slipped .
out unawares to commit the evime.
But this is only one of the many trage-
dies which took Place during the war,
end it is said that at least 2 per cent of
the French officers killed fell by the
hands of their own men and a little over
half that number in the Prussian army.
In the former instance the crimes were
due for the most part to the national fail-
ing of neyer forgetting a grievance and ih
the latter to the rigidity of discipline,
which sometimes amounts to bullying.
Even Marshal Bazaine was nearly mur-
dered before he capitulated at Metz. Ho
was hy no means a popular mad, and on
this account always stood iu dread of the
assassin, and his fears were not lessened
when a plot was discovered to put poison
in his food, the scheme being hatched by
his own men. The offenders, or some
of them, were promptly tried and shot
before many hours were over.
A rather sad case iS recorded in con-
nection with the Italian disaster at Ado -
wale During the melee a man was seen
to shoot in the direction of his captain,
who at the same time • fell mortally
wounded. When the battle was over, the
limn was charged with the crime and,
after a sant trial, shot by his comrades,
despite his protests of innocence, one of
the chief reasons for his .condemnation -
being that he was known to have a griev-
ance egainst , the officer. Nevertheless
the affair was soon forgotten till some
nine months afterward, when a sold*
came forward from the same reginselit, -
self charged with the crime. He related
the facts in detail, giving his motive as
petty tyranny on the part of the after
some years previously, when he, the
murderer, was a recruit, and stated that
he would never have given himself up
had not another man died ia his Stead.
Needless to say, this did net excuse him,
and he perished in the prison yard at Na-
ples.
In 1899 three Spanish soldiers were ex-
ecuted at Madrid for the alleged murder
of an officer during the hostilities in -Cu-
ba, although the evidence against them
was very meager: Sufficient was it that
subsequent to the battle of San Juan the
officer was found dead some way from
the battlefield, with a Mauser bullet in
hie brain, and the three men referred to
were seen in the vicinity at abant the
time the affair must have taken place.
Of course, they may have been justly
condemned, as tragedies of this nature
were especially frequent in the Spanish
army throughout the 'war, but at the,
same time the authorities failed to take
into account that there were many so,
called "loyal" Cubans attachedt.the
Spanish forces and also present at San
Juan who had been given Mauser rifles
and ammunition by their oppressors, hut
whose dislike to Spanish officers was pro-
verbial.
Although such crimes are more cone -
mon in the • majority of continental ar-
mies than in our own, we must not im-
agine that similar mases have never taken
place in Which Tommy Atkins has partic-
ipated. In the Zulu war, just prior to
the battle ef lUlundi, a young lieutenant
in one of the line regiments was found
shot some way from camp, and after the
campaign a soldier on his deathbed at
Devonport confessed to ,having been his

As the Old Fashioned

&Alp -Kidney Remedies with
DR. PITCHER'S
Backache Kidney Tablets.
The old flint lock often missed fire, and
when it did discharge would recoil With
such effect the user would be knocked over;
this will apply to the use of the ordinary
kidney medicines. They are prepared with-
out sufficient consideration for the other
orga us, and while relief is being obtained
for the kidneys the stomach or other organs
suffer.
When Dr. Piteher worked out the formula
for his Backache Kidney Tablets, the action
of each iugredient used separately was care-
fully watched, and, as one ingredient after
another was added, the action in combin-
ation was a study tehich resulted in the per-
fectly balanced medicine, Dr. Pitcher's
Backache Kidney Tablets, the only prepar-
ation that has been able to establish itsel:
by depending on local endorsement by peo-
ple you know. Watch the columns of this
pa'per, and you will read sccires of statements
like the following from W. R. •Counter,
Main Street, Seaforth; who says : " Some
time ago,1 was Buffering from a backache and
pain in the side. The digestive organs
were at the same time out of gears( I laid it
to a derangement of kidney and liVer. Dur
ing this attack I took a bottle of Dr. Pit-
cher's Backache Kidney Tablets 1 got at

Mr. Gun ulus' Old Horse.
Rev. Wank Gunsaulus at one time believ-
ed that his parish work would be made
much easier for him if he possessed et horse
on which to ride from place to place, so ha
determined to purchase one. Now what
Rev. Gunsanlus didn't know about a horse
wonld fill a» large volume, and, as might
have been expected, he fell into the hands
of the Philistines. He saw nothing wiong
with the horse, however. He had told the
man of whom he had bought it that he was
not used to riding, and so wanted a quiet
animal, and in this respeet, at least, the
horse fully came up to the requirements.
Oue day Rev. Gunsaulue' father came tie
vieit him, and the horse was proudly shown
to him. Gunsaulus pare looked the horse
over carefully.
" Well, Frank," he said at last, "he isn'b
much on looks, is he ?"
"No." answered Frank, "but then, you
know, father, the Saviour rode a horse that
was anything but handsome."
" Yes, I've heard that," said the olti
man, reflectively. ' Frank," he added,
Suddenly, "you've got a treasure. I'll bet
this is the same horse." -Denver Times.

Plough the affair was hushed up and put

FORREST Af4D THE PARSON.
Why the Fiery Confederate General
Releneted a Federal Chaplain.
One of the fiercest and most determined
fighters in the civil war was General N.
B. Forrest, commanding the Confeder4e
cavalry. His name was a redoubtable one,
- and few of his opponents were awiere
of a humorous side of his disposition
familiar to his friends_ For many years
the general loved to teil the story of in
incident ' which oceirrred near Cowlfue's
Station.
The few troopers lie had with him We're
being hotly pursued by the Federals, and
the general was galloping along at top
speed. A fiery senthern dame happened
to be standing by the roadside, and when
she saw the dying Confederate Officer
her indigmation boiled over. Shaking her
fist in scorn. she. smarmed:
"Wky don't you tarn and fight, you
cowardly rascal? If old Forrest were,
here. he'd make you tight!"
Portemately 'tho general's horse soonl
carried hem out of range+
Ferrest`s biography relates that once
at a dinner party, where he had been In.
Netted as Wee guest of honor, filer° was a
loestaeiesse widow, with hair :of raven
black, whet rudely interrupted the con-
versation by asking General Forrest why
It was that his beard was still black
while his hair was turning gray.
With great politeness Forrest turned
to her.
"1 fear I cannot give you a satisfactory,
answer," said he, "unless poseibly the
mass)* is that I have used my brain a lit-
tle more than I have my jaw."
In the midst of one of his campaigns a
captured Federal chaplain WAB brou.ght
to hie headquarters. The man showed
the deepest anxiety and depression, for
the stories of General Foerest's severity
were rite in the Union camp. A little
later supper was announced, and Forrest,
to the chaplain's surprise, invited him to
share it. But his surprise geew to amaze-
ment when the general turned to him
reverently and said:
"ramose will yen please ask the bless -

Map Made of Rare Stones.
Prince Ouroussow, the ambassador of Rut-
s* sent te the president of the republic a
present sent by the Czar in tbe shape of a
map of France in precious stones,
This map, which is unique, is about a
metre equare. It is entirely formed of rare
gems, set in mosaic. Each department of
France is reproduced in special stones -jade,
onyx, agate, cornelian, malachite, and
others.
The principal towns are indicated by
brilliants. Paris is represented by a ruby,
Maieeilles by an emerald, Lyons by a die-
-Maud, Bordeaux by an opal, Lille by a
turquoise, and so 012.
The eize of each atone is in proportion to
the importance of the town.
The value of the map is estimated at
4,000,000 fraDeefis
The emerald which represents Marseilles
alone is valued at 18,000 rubles.
During the expotition this marvelous map
will be in the Russian pavilion, situated on
the left of the Trocadero.

"Watchee no good to Wing Lung now,"
he said briefly, shoving his property
across the counter. "You fix him."

Mrs. A. Y. Field, Bathurst St., Toronto,
nays :-" During the last ten years I have
made many mats and rugs from wool and
cotton rags and coarse yarns. The dyeing
of de rags and yarns I have always done
with Diamond Dyes, as they give the richest
and strongest colors. I am fully convinced
that the Diamond Dyes are the safest and
cheapest for all who make carpets, mats
and rugs. I would not use any other kind
of dyes."

LONDON'S MISSING PEOPLE. 4
Detectives Say They Number About
Twenty Thousand a Year.
The police inspector said: "About ton
years ago I was watchingsome workmen
pulling down a row of old riverside
houses that had a desperately bad repu-
tation time out of mind; and I can recol-
lect what a start it gave me when they
showed me that nearly every house had a
great trapdoor, through which anything
could be drepped into the race of the
tide below. Many a poor chap had gone
to his death that way, I'll go bail. But I
can tell you a curious thing that happen-
ed ouly the other day. A man had been
drugged and robbed, hue he told us that
before he became insensThle he had man-
aged to lock and bolt his door, and locked
and belted it was when he came round
again. How they had got in and robbed
hint he could not imagine. Well, we
searched about and finally diseovered
that tke door was really two doors, one
,withia another. He had ,,two
and belt-
ed the liner door into the frame safe
enough, but then tke frame itself was
only another door, with separate hinges
of its own."
"I suppose the list of those reported
missing is quite a short one these days,
Is it not?"
"Sem. 18,800 to 20,000 a year! But
don't Leek so startled. More than dime-
enarters a them turn up 'again in some
way or ether. You see,, the list includes
strayed children and runaway boys to be-
gan with. Then there are the men who
g'et locked up at night for something or
ether and either are toe careless or too
ashamed tis send to their wives, with the
result that the poor women rush off to
the nearest station in the inorning to
make inquiries. Quite a number of men
go and hide after quarreling with their
wives. Why, 1 came across a case the
other day where a man had lived for four
years within half a Mile of the wife he'd
de,serted without her finding him. A. big
to-wn is the only safe place for a fellow
that's 'wanted' to hide comfortably."-
Cassell's Magazine.

Skating.
An experienced skating teacher lays
great importance upon the kind of shoes
worn. " A great deal is said," he remrrk-
ed " about properly supporting the ankle,
and people complain that they cannot skate
because their ankles are weak. Now, in at
least five but of ten of those cases there is
nothing at all the matter with either the
ankle or its support. The trouble is right
here," and he touched the side of his shoe
just below the instep and above the hollow
of the foot. "This part of the shoe," he
continued, "ought to be very snug and
stiff, to hold tbe foot straight, and prevent
its twisting between the toe and heel.
That is what usually makes the skater
• wabble ' and lose his footing and he thinks
the trouble is with his ankle. The height
of the shoe does not matter much."-FHarp-
er's Bazar.

Old Sword Blades.
Rough as the fighters of old were, the
inscriptions which they put on their
swords often showed not only considera-
ble poetic instinct, but sentimentality.
"Faithful in adversity"i is such a { sen-
tenee engraved on an old sword of the
seventeenth century. In a collectionof
blades of the sixteenth century are these
inscriptions :
"I quarrel." "God give me speed that
my foe be beat indeed." "With this de-
fense and God's will all'my enemies I
shall still." "In battle I: will let myseff
be used." "When I my sword uplift ill
strife, God give the sinner eternal life."
"Trust in; God, bravely war; therein
your fame and honor are." "Your aim.
alone be God's great name. Who dares de
-
ay strike thou him lame." "Every soldier
fine look on this sign and use his hand
for God and the land." On blades from
the eighteenth century are these inscrip-
tions: "Nothing better in the world than
hast than to hold love and friendship
fast." "I serve." "A good blade 1. Who
would deny let him meet me, and I will
hold it will cost him or blood or gold."

Ask Your Friend
about King Quality Shoes.
Ten to one she'll say'there
are none better.'
They are favorites with
good dressers, because they
are comfortable and yet
stylish -stylish and yet eco-
nomical.
Ask an expert their price, and he'll
say "$5" --he'd be wrong -for while
they are worth it, our price is $3.
That's one secret of their success.
Ask to see King Quality Shoes."

A cheaply made eream separator
is dear at any price, because faulty
construction, liable to break, and di -
cult to operate. The Shezples No. I,
with a capacity of 325 lbs. an hour,
and the Sharpies W. H. 8, with a ca-
pacity of 300 Ths„ are the finest pro-
ducts of the largest and best equipped
cream separator factory in the world.
The materials entering into the con-
struetion of these l machines are the
best obtainatle. The work is done by skilled workmen, and_ is subjected to the
most rigid inspection. Without fear of substantia1 contradiction, we can say -
that for ease in operating, clean skimming and durability, there is no other hand
power cream separator made by any one anywhere that is equal to the Sharpies.
We sell these machines on their merits. We believe that the buyer should be
allowed to decide which machine is best for him to buy. We leave them to any
intending buyer for a week or ten days, with privilege of returning the machine
if not perfectly satisfied with it. Price of No. 1 machine, $90; W. H. 8, TOR -
chine, $75. Write for illustrated catalogue. We want a reliable man, with
horse and rig, to sc4 the Sharpies Separator in the Township of McKillop.

Not So Bad.
In Scotland they have no green corn on
the cob. Therefore when this Scotchrea.n
came across the water he was amused to
see the peop/e devouring those greati
hunks of corn. A friend of his recom-1
mended the dish to him as tasty and de-
licious, and when the sturdy son of Scotia
lunched at a restaurant he ordered a
plate of "boiled sweet corn on the cob."
When his friend met him next, he asked
him if he had tried the corn yet.
"Aye, have I. and it's no onything to
mak sic a fuss abet, I'm thinking."
"What, didn't you like it?"
"It wusua sae bad i' the ootside, but it
wus maist awfy tench 1' the inside." -
