When the Thirteenth was brigaded
with us, everybody spoke In praise of
its vank and file. No better material
could bare been found In America
couple of weeks, however, showed the
colonel to be an egotist and a drunk
ard. and few of the company or reg
mental officers seemed anxious to give
him credit for anything outside.
One day the regiment came out to
relieve the Fourth on outpost duly.
At midafternoon a hundred Confeder
ate cavalry, divided into sipu'ds ol
iweiiiy-nve, attacked four full compa
nies „r the Thirteenth at about the
same moment. Oue dis ■barge <>f their
carbines, followed by a grand ■' ‘ l1 ' 1

beaten, routed and disgraced by !•«'.
The colonel called his officer* to
gether and said they must give the
men double drill and that In the next
light they must shoot dnw'n any man
who tried to make a bolt for it. And
the captains got their reaper!lve com
panies out Oil the parade ground and
looked savage and swelled out their
chests and shouted: ~~~
-You are a laughing stock In this
brigade. You have bail two or three
/•hnneos to win glory, but you have
• run away like beaten cure. In o\tr next
fight 1 will shoot the man who even
turns pule.”
\nd yet every private In every com
puny remembered that when he ran
away he followed his three officers and
was not able to overtake them. A
month later, at !> .Velock one summer
morning, our brigade swung Into bat
tle line on the left center. It stretched
across g cotton field, with Its right an< j
left connecting in the woods with oth
er brigades. The fight began far above ,
us. That meant waiting, and It is th-
wnlting that makes cowards of brave
men.
Down the lines of the Fourth, be\
cuth and Eighth went the company,
officers to brace up the men who " ere

A rr«Hc Imltatnr.
Albert Vnudam, a French writer,
gives this description of one of th#
lending republicans of Gan)betta's
time: “Blisoln had a tendency to Imi
tate the great Napoleon. He who hod
Joined I.annirtine in his vigorous pro
test against the removal of Napoleon's
ashes from St. Helena to Paris struck
Napolooncsque attitudes at the camp
of Uonlie when reviewing tho troops
or the undisciplined, woebegone masses,
standing knee deep in mud,.who were
supposed to represent troops. Ho
trudged up and down the lines with his
hands behind him, then came to a sud
den stop and, nodding his head, whis
pered (ho bad no voice), Soldiers, l
am pleased with you.’ ”
Inl.iur Advertising.
Some of the Japanese tradesmen In
the smaller towns of Nippon have a
curious way of advertising their bust- i
ness. On their right forearms they
tattoo figures—the shoomakor a shoe,
the woodcutter nn ax. the butcher a 1
cleaver. Underneath these emblems
are such Inscriptions as, "I do my work
modestly and cheaply,” or "I am as
good at my trade as most of my fel
lows." When they are hunting work
they burn their arms and walk about
the streets.
