Tliey've sent us it man wlio hasn't the heart to iilli a nhee]>!” I.;ilcron, ■when ('inii|>;in,\ II bail liecii out on tiie picket lines ami iiad a sharp Kkirniisli with the enemy, tln'ie was strange talic among tlie men. "Do you know,” whispered tiie onlci'- ly sergeant to tlie first eonmral. "thiit they gave ua n cuaswl coward for u captain?” "Ilush. hush!" replied the corporal. •‘I won’t husli. 1 was watching him Jn that little scrimmage, and he was us Aviiite as a sheet and trembling like u leaf.” Next day the captain sent for the or derly sergeant, und the latter had a strong suspicion, but he was greeted quietly and plea.sanlly, and the captain asited a few questions before saying: ‘‘So. sergeant, you thiuls I’tn a cow- artl und should be forced to resign?" Sergeant Clay wus a bluff, blunt man. The cnptnhi had asked him a di rect question, and, throwing military etiquette to the dogs, he answered: “You didn't make no record to be proud of out there the other day!" “I was very nervous." slowly admit ted tho captain after a long pause. “It was my first time under Are. 1 wasn't afraid of being killed, that 1 c.«n remember, but the excitement upset me. Suppose you and the boys wait a bit before you send me a request to resign. 1 don't know myself yet, and you can’t fairly cull me a failure until we have another turn at it. If my nerves fail me in the nest crisis you won’t have to demand my resignation. Arc you willing to wait?" “Captain." thesergea-it whispered as a feeling of awe came to him. “It ain’t for you to ask this or that of us. It’s for me to say that there’ll be no more talk among the boys and that In our next fight you’ll make a record to be proud ■'f.” It had been man to man instead of captain to sergeant, and it was etlll so when their hands were extended and clasped. ‘‘Well?” queried half a dozen ser geants and corporals as the orderly re turned to hla quarters. “Well, you hear me now!” replied the man as he looked from one to the other. •‘Wo've done a lot of talking with our months. From this time on till We've seen our captain pranoo about in another scrimmage we are going to ehet right up. 'I'he chap as does any blowing won't be no friend of mine.” A week later began the campaign which ended in the battle of Antietam. "Fighting Joe" Hooker was leading the ilivisioti to which the Third bri gade and tbe Tenth volunteers belong ed, and as Comi>any n (iresscd for ward tbe second sergeant unittered to the orderly: "IIow’s—how's things goiu' to be at the head of the company?” “Now, don’t you worry the shirt off your bach tiefore it’s time, Joe Hope! I’m going to wait and see, and the rest of you have got to do tbe same. Durn a man who won't give ano!' r man a fair show!” As the Tenth regiment got the word the captain of Company H passed swift ly before his line. In tbe ghostly light he seemed taller by a foot The men who peered at him saw that his Jaws were firm and set and his eyes blazing. "He means flght!” whispered the first corporal. “Say, he’ll lead us into hades and back!" mattered the second sergeant Forward, guide left, moved tlie Tenth, and the front line had scarcely brushed tbe wet off the cornstalks wben they met with a volley. It was so close and deadly that there was con- fnsioa. The center broke back, tlie flanks halted, and order and discipline were lost "Attentioo, Company II! By the right flank—march! On tbe left into line! Forward—double quick—charge bayo- acts!” It was tbe voice of the new captain, and, like clockwork, tbe men who were lambllnc over eocb other fell Into line and plowed their way out of the burly burly. Ab tliey cleared the mob their mnskets came down to the charge, and. wltb shouts and cheers, they drove tbrongh a Une of battle and sent a thousand men scurrying away throogti the mists. Aa they sto^ panting, with dead and wounded under their feet, tbe otber companies came marching up to Join them and to hold the position. Then tbe sun blazed up over the hills and devoured the mist at a gulp, and erery living man in Company H tara- ed to look at bis captain. His face was as white as a dead man’s, but there was a grim smile of triumph over tt. and the exultation of battle was mak ing bis bine eyes shine like stars. "Well, I’ll be cussed r whispered tbe second sergeant. ‘'Blast my eyes, if he ain’t a flghter!** Sasped tbe flrst corporal. The orderly sergeant cangbt the cap tain’s eye and nodded and broogbt ap bis band in salute. He received a nod and a salute in reply. "We Jest didn’t understand bow be was made!" mattered the orderly aa be Maaoved his cap to inspect a bullet hole, done oa afl prood todajr BANKRUPT SALE OF SHOES The entire stock of the Gornto Shoe Co., will be sold AT COST to satisfy the creditors. $4,000.00 worth of Spring and Sum mer goods had just been received.
