STORIES^ CAMP. 4 I® ANDWA.#3? SHARP BATTLE IN ARKAMSA3 Charge and Countercharge at Prairie Grove Is Graphically Related by Veteran of Chicago. W'pstprn fighting was not so dra matically get forth at the time of the war as were the campaigns of tho fast, but its picturesqueness is un questionable. If has a special claim nn Chicago's interest because many of the men who fought in the army of tile frontier are now living in Chica t>. One of these, George Rettig, who lives at 2105 Leland avenue, tells of hi-* experiences at Prairie Orove in tile Arkansas-Missouri campaign of 3R02. The story Is as follows: After the battle of Rhea's Mills we ranie down to the place known as Prairie Grove. Here our position was on high ground on the concave sine of n bend made by the valley of a little stream Beyond the creek and tjie level land that bordered it was an other rise of ground, on which the Confederates had their battery hidden In the woods. The Third Wisconsin cavalry, my regiment, was at the right, and the Twentieth Wisconsin infantry was at the center. This regiment started out first. Down the hill they went, with he fire of tlie rebel battery converged on them, and across the level ground and up the other hill they made their way, climbing a fence to reach the wooded ground They reached the guns and a captain had planted a flag on the battery when the whole line of Confederate infantry, which had been reserved for this purpose, rose up and threw the Wisconsin men back down the hill. More than 100 of our men were left hanging on the fence or dy ing in the woods. ' Then the secesh came out in turn. They aimed for a point half way be tween my regiment and the Twentieth Wisconsin. Here Rapp's Indiana bat tery was set up. Tho Confederates tried to charge the battery, and every time they were driven back by a rain It Was Liko Shooting Into a Flock of Chickens. of grape and canister. It was like shooting into a flock of chickens. The Confederates spread for a moment and then came back again to the ckirge. They were piled five and six high in front of the guns before they were ordered back to their Hnea. "Evening oarae, and there was no irore fighting, and in the morning when we expected to be attacked we found that tiie enemy had left. So we went down and took Van Buren and Port Smith. There was not much irouVle there. We came down from the high ground into the city after vin engagement with some Texas rang ers, and we found the place deserted by the men. The secesh were on the other side of the river with a battery ;nd they shot canister and grape across the water and up the streets. Wo put a Union flag on the courthouse, and they shelled it, but their aim was TOT good. Rnri the flag stayed. With ■<ll their firing they did not hit one man of us, but they did kill several hogs and one woman." Not Yet. When some Vnion soldiers were scouting In the mountains of western North Carolina they came to a cabin in a clearing which might have been across the sea so far as its being disturbed by the war was concerned. Laziness was In the air. The hogs slept where they had fallen without a grunt, a thin claybank mule grazed round and 'round in a circle to save the effort of walking, and a lean, lank man, whose garments were the color of the mule, dozed in the shade of a sycamore and let time roll by. "Howdy dj?" shouted a soldier when the turn showed signs of life. "Howdy," came the answer. "Pleasant country." "Fur them as likes It." "Lived here all your life?" The southerner spat pensively in Ihe dust: "Not yit." Perkins Was Collected. "I understand." said the investigat ing officer, "that you and Private P rkins were calm and collected when explosion occurred at the powder magazine." "Well —yes, sir," replied the sel ler slowly. "That is, I was calm -.ut poor Perkins, he was collected." INIEBNANONAL ! SINMrSffIOOL LESSON (By E. O. SELLERS, Director of I nlnK Department, The Moojy Bible I Institute of Chicago.} LESSON FOR AUG. 11. A TROUBLED SEA AND A TROU BLED SOUL. LESSON TEXT—Mark 4:15 to 6:20. GOt.DEN TEXT—"God is our refuge and strength, a very piesent help In trou ble. Therefore will we not fear, thounh the earth do change, and though the mountains be removed into the heart of the sea." Ps. 46:1-2. We now turn from our studies in j the manifesto or inaugural address of | Jesus to one of the outstanding inci- j dents of his life of service. This lesson is a dramatic one, lights j and shadows, surprise and revelation, 1 rebuke and encouragement are rapid- | ly mingled. The subject of the les son is well chosen. Leaving the multi- j tude to whom he had been prea.ching, | Jesus commands that they pass over j to the other side of the lake, v. 35. j "Let us pass over," he says. Jesus ! never asks his disciples togo whero ! he will not go or has not been before, i How touchingly vivid is the sugges- j tion of v. 30. "they took him as he , was,"—he is tired and weary, he, [ whose invitation is to all who are j weary and needing rest, he who had j not where to lay his head, is carried j by loving hands into the boat and is j soon lost in restful slumber? Loving ! hands minister to the loved teacher. Roth master and friends, who are soon to meet a case of great sin, aro before that met by a great storm. Rut be who is I»rd and Master of forces, sleeps calmly on. Why not? Who else could bo indifferent ? Not so these | disciples; they have yet to know him perfectly and hence it is quite natural j that in their alarm they should awak- j en him as they view the rapidly fill- ! ing boat and exclaim. "Master, carest ' thou not that we perish?" Weary as he was, and personally indifferent as he may have been, yet for the sake of his e+iosen friends he arose and re- j buked the storm, and the peace which he later gave the demoniac is first ■ shown in material things as he quieted J the waves (Compare v. 3!) and 15). Had Little Faith. It was a great storm, v. 37, like- ! wise a great calm. The psalmist says, | "great peace have they who love thy ! law," great peace have they who truly ' know and love Jesus, (John 14:27). His rebuke to the disciples, v. 40, was j so gentle as to lose its sting, "how is it that ye have so little faith?" They ' had some faith, it is true, for they api pealed to him in their great need, but j oh so little. Our proportion of faith is the measure of our fear. What ! wonder (v. 41) that they were amazsd. : This man of tlesh who had been sleep- ! ing the sleep of intense weariness com- j manding tho sea and that it should i obey hitn with the meekness of a ! child. "What manner of man is this?" Nineteen hundred years has failed to answer that query. Reaching the other side they entered the land of Gadara. There they met j a demoniac who is, we believe, a type ! or picture of great sin in that he was j (a) without restraint, "no man could ! bind him," v. 3; (b) he was injuring j himself "cutting, etc.," v. 5; (c) ho j was separated front his friends, "dwelt among the tombs," v. 3; (d) he was ' "unclean," v. 2. There is also evi dence of the futility of human resolu- j tions and the vainness of attempts at ' control or reformation, see verse 4, — j "no man had the strength to tame I him." Then note the torment of his j life, v. 7. Sins to Account For. Church members have no right to j condemn the liquor traffic and then j to rent stores in which to carry on j the same. Naturally therefore, these people when they saw their illegal | gains interfered with should request | Jesus to depart, v. 17, and tills even ! in the face of what had been done for ] stricken man. I.uke tells us (Luke | 8:37) that they were holden with a I great fear. Fear of what? Surely not j any fear of this Galilean teacher, but j rather were they fearful of the effect j of his life upon their material pros perity. Rig business will have some | sins to account for when in the face i of known facts they still press for j their gains ignoring the cry of the af flicted and careless of unreasonable house and unsanitary living condi tions. On the other hand why did Jesus re- I fuse such a logical and seemingly rea sonable and proper a request as that j recorded in verse 18? Was it not a j very natural request and an evidence I of gratitude as well? Jesus, however, I knew a better place, for he saw a [ greater joy in store for this man. Hence he commanded the man to"go 1 home." A suggestion outline for this lesson ; would be as follows: I. A great storm 4:35-41. The com- [ mand of Jesus, v. 35; the weariness of j Jesus, v. 30; the alarm of the dis ciples, v. 38; the indifference of Jesus, v. 3S; the great calm, v. 3!). 11. A glorious cure. 5:1-20. (1) The Gadarene a type of sin, v. 1-5, unclean, separated, no restraint, self-injury. (21 Th ? Gadarene cleansed, v. G-15. He recognized purity. 111. The great mission, v 10 20. An Improper request, v. 17. A proper re quest, v. 18. A hard request, v. 19. A great result, see Luke 8:40. MADDENED BY RED NECKTIE Gentle Bossy. Suddenly Infuri ated. Seriously Wounds Child COW DRAGS GIRL ON HOOK While Leading the Jersey from the Field Three Men Appeared, One With a Flaming Tie—Helen Masters Seriously Hurt. Allentown. —Impaled on a hook and i dragged around a field by au infur- ! j iated cow, Helen Masters, ihe 16-year- 1 | old daughter of Charles Masters, a farmer living near Wescosville, was ! seriously hurt. With the men busy | at iii-.i vest, Miss Matsers was delegated to tend the cattle. She was leading a Jersey that had always been a gen tle bossy from the pasture field when | three men came walking along. One of these wore a red necktie. The men I neither spoke nor made motions, but I as soon as the cow spied them she j reared furiously. The hook at the end | of the chain by which Miss Masters was leading the cow, caught in the ' girl's right thigh, and as the animal i plunged across the field tho girl w;is j dragged over the rough ground. Themen i started in pursuit, but before they I caugh up the cruel hook, which had | sunk to the bone, was torn out of the j flesh. The girl had fainted. The men picked her up and hurriedly suni j moned Dr. Albert N. Miller. The leg ! was so badly lacerated that she will J be crippled. Girl a Year in Snakedom. Washington.—Declaring that sh« was compelled to work in a den of : snakes in a traveling show, and exhib ; iting scars on her arms which she 112 said were caused by the bites of the | slimy reptiles, Miss Goldie Denman, 16 year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs Samuel Denman, reckoned as one of i the prettiest and most popular girls of Washington, reached home after ! being strangely missing for nearly a i year. The girl told an amazing story [ of her experience since she had van ; ished, following the close of the ! county fair here last fall. In her story, | told to the authorities here, Miss Den ) man said she had become acquainted with a young stranger at the fair, and ! when the fair closed this man per suaded to accompany a side show ! The girl said she left town with Ihe j company with the idea of "traveling j to the next town for the fun of the | thing," and then returning home. I Scarcely was she out of the town when, according to her story, the man j ager of the company informed her that she was under a contract and threat ; ened her if she attempted to escape I or made any statement to officers. i Jilted Swain Grew Peevish. York. —When Lenora O'Bryan left I Chauncey llobbs waiting at the j church, llobbs didn't break into mel ancholy song, but hired a team and } started out to find his faithless sweet ! heart, who was out for a drive, lie j came upon her in ihe street, and, fol j lowing the encounter, the girl pre ferred charges of aggravated assault j and battery, under which Hobbs is ' now waiting in jail. Miss O'Bryan al j leges that she was driving a younger ; sister when her jilted lover sprang I from his buggy and attacked her. She i was beaten and choked, she says, and j most of her clothing was torn from | her back, besides which Hobbs threat | ened her with a revolver and stiletto. Fear Tarantula in Soda. Pittsburgh. -Learning a tarantula had escaped from a bunch of bananas and was supposed to be in the soda water reservoir, hysterical girl mem bers of the ultra-fashionable Oakmont Motor Boat Club left their glasses and dashed wildly from the building. Sev eral fainted and had to be removed to their homes. Others clambered into their autos and dashed madly to the j nearest while several ran lo nearby drug stores and begged for ! emetics and stomach pumps. Only | those who had not imbibed of the | soda were free from the thought of a I poisonous and revolting death. The | tarantula was later recaptured in an | abandoned pipe.

TO COMMENCE ISSUE EARLY Many Applications for License Re ceived Before New Year Arrives — j 30,000 Orders Were Filed Be fore Close of 1911. (Special Harrisburg Correspondence.) llarrisburg.—The automobile tags for 1913 of this State will be dark olive green with white figures and the keystone in soft metal. This color j has been decided upon by Highway Cominissionar E. M. Bigelow, who is in charge of the automobile registra tion of the State, and bids will be asked at once for furnishing 75,000 to the State. This year the tags have been mahogany with white letters and in other years have bee'i yellow with black letters, red with white letters and dark blue. The green tags will be something like those used by New York this year, but the style of the Pennsylvania tag is different from that of New York. Au innovation by Mr. Bigelow is the order that the con tractors bid to supply the tags by November 1. This is considerably earlier than ever before and is due to the fact that for weeks before the close of the year the department has many applications for new tags for tlie coming year, and it is planned to get them out ahead. Last year over 30,000 applications were made before the close of 1911, and the work had togo on day and night for the latter part of December and early part of January. This year a start will be made in November and there will be no congestion at the close of the year. The new tags will not be worth any thing until January 1, 1913, and it will not matter how early they are bought. This year 60,000 tags were ordered. Mr. Bigelow will order 75,000 for 1913 Playgrounds Are Popular.

Deer Like Sanitarium. Or. Samuel G. Dixon, State Health Commissioner, returned from a visit | to the State Tuberculosis Sanitarium lat Mount Alto. Ou the road down from the sanitarium to the station Mr. i Dixon was confronted by three deer, ; a doe and two well-grown fawns. Tho wild animals stood and watched the | approach of ihe team until quite close, I when they moved off leisurely into ; the woods. The reservation on which the sanitarium is located is full of j deer, and they are very tame, fre j quently going to the houses to get : salt and other thingss to eat. Some ; time ago a herd of twelve were seen i and last spring a bunch of seventeen i that had been after salt at the cook house stood still long enough to be 1 photographed. It is forbidden to kill deer on the reservation, but in the woods surrounding they are plentiful, and in season hunters have fine sport Lehigh Resources Grow.
