On Thursday night Jack Cooley, Frank Cooley, his brother, and Jack Ramsey attempted to effect an entrance into the spring-house of Thomas Collier, near Fairchance, for the purpose of robbing. Jack Cooley was the leader of the gang, and when he forced the door open a gun, set in- side and loaded with buckshot, was dis- charged, the load taking effect in Jack Cooley’s abdomen, producing wounds from which he died yesterday morning. The in- jured man was at once picked up by his comrades and carried to his father’s home, three miles away. The dead man’s father came to Fairchance for a coffin and told the following story of the shooting: ‘The boys were away from home Thursday night, where I did not then know. Along about 2 o'clock Friday morn- ing they returned, bearing the bleeding form of Jack. The poor fellow did not seem to realize that the end was so near. I wanted to go for a doctor, but he and Frank would not let me. They said the wounds were not Never were orders more promptly given, or successfully executed; and no man appeared a greater hero than Opdycke on the field of Franklin; and no regiment in that serried line, reach- ing from the Missippi te the sea, did better service than the 88th Il.—R.

At the very thought my heart sank eould only hope against hope that the fight would win. Boy as I was, 1 often thought, how could it'be possibile that the loyal people of the country and the enemies of the country were both worshiping the same God, both sides praying for success; that He in His infinite wisdom would give right the power to win, and we would ulti- nately be released from our place of torture and ‘return to loved ones at home, and demonstrate to them that their daily prayers for our safe deliver- ance had been answered by Him. Of our treatment by the enemy I may have moc to say in the future,but it seems hardly possible to have been penned up in a shelterless stockade for nine or ten months, no shelter day or night, not enough clothing left to cov- er our bodies, the ground literally alive with maggots and other vermin, and to-day live to tell the story. About 12 or 18 years ago I wrote to | the postmaster at Tyler, asking him if Camp Ford Stockade still remained. His name was Hunt. He wrote me a very gentlemanly answer, that the stockade was torn down, the Union dead 211 removed to the National Cem- stery at Shreveport, La., and the ground was being cultivated. : I hope this will be the means of | resurrecting the pen of some dear com- rade who suffered in the same prison. —L. J. CurTEr, in National Tribune. Battle of Franklin, Although oft recounted, that charge of Opdycke’s Brigade at Franklin can never become tedious, by repetition, jn the minds of the old soldiers. Spe- gial acts of heroism are cherished by all men, and the annals of warfare of greater significance to the army and nation than the charge here ve- | {erred to. Gen. Opdycke was the ddolized Colonel of the 125th Ohio, and when promoted and given ccmmand of the | First Brigade, Second Division,Fourth Corps, his old regiment followed him, and I can recollect no time—any im- portant occasion—when we were not in his immediate vicinity, and so at the battle of Franklin, on the re- treat from Spring Hill to Franklin, we were tear-guards on the Columbia pike, and he was with us. We passed over the works at Franklin, and when about 100 yards to the rear our regi- ment “filed left” at right angle with the pike,and with the left company (B, my own) resting its left on the road, halted and stacked arms. My recollections is that we were then a continuation of the brigade line, with the other regiments on the opposite side of the pike. Only fa moment and the battle began. If the 88th Ill. was also rear guards that day, then we must. have taken this position at the same time, or nearly so i ——about 4 p. m. Ifnot, I can readily gee how it was thut Opdycke consult- 2d with Col. Smith about orders. He certainly was about where he should be to render that effective service. Wiien the battle began—when the ball opencd—I mean that cannon-ball that came bounding down the pike— | Opdycke was sitting on his horse with- in a few feet of us. About this time pandemonium broke loose; the South- ern Confederacy came pouring over our works. : And about thoss orders. Should I ‘ Jive 100 years I could mot forget them; with ns as with our comrades of the 88th I. at this supreme moment we peeded none; but “First Brigade, fall ml—Charge bayonet—Double quick,” _ rang out the commands of Gen.

ONLY three of the New York Brotherhood men are left in the New York team, viz. O'Rourke, Crane and Ewing. * CORCORAN, Brooklyn's clever short stop, was formerly a Western Union messenger boy, He graduated from the lots. HuTcrisoN, who has pitched the Chicagos pen- nant race since his connection with that into a commanding position in ever, c.ub, is being hit freely all along the line. TaE fact should not be lost sight .of that the twelve clubs now battling for honors make the strongest League ever organizad. There is not ip the League a ‘‘cinch” for any club. 1 5E Bostons have won more games in the Jast inning and by on: run than any other 1t may be luck, but there is a great deal of good, nervy ball playing mixed in team. with the luck. Tug Philadelphia Club’s feat of winning {he entire first season series from the Louis- ville team is not unprecedented. That very thing happened to the Philadeiphias in 1883, their very first season in the League, when the Bostons won all of the ten games of the series from them. CONSIDERING theuntried pitching material Vard has made a when the season opened, wonderful record with his Brooklyn team. He has certainly handled his team in a man- ner to completely overshadow Anson, of Chicago, Ewing, of New York, and even Comisky, of Cincinnati. TaE second championship season of the big League has begun. There is every reason to > believe that it will be a much more exciting and eventful race than the memorable cam- paign just closed. The teams all start better equalized, and those that have been markedly wenk have made mighty, and probably suc- ceseful, efforts to strengthen.

Shortly before mid- night Jack became unconscious, and I then went for Dr. Holbert, but when he arrived it was too late.” : The old man then gave Frank's version. The three boys were trying to get into Mr. Collier's milk-house. Jack opened the door and the gun was discharged. He uttered a groan and fell back. The boys thought they had fallen into the hands of the sheriff ‘and his posse. Without waiting to return the fire or see. who had fired the shot, they picked up the wounded man and bore him to his home. Thomas Collier said his milk-house had been robbed several times and he placed the gun loaded with buckshot, in the milk- house with the muzzle pointing toward the door. He tied a string to the trigger sc that whoever opened the door would be shot. Alout 1 o'clock at night his wife awake him and said the gun had been discharged. He did not go out until morning, when he found the ground in front of the milk- house covered with blood. He also found two latge, loaded revolvers, which indicates that thle Cooleys had fled precipitately. MT Collier is afraid the Cooleys will have revenge and says he would not be surprised if they should waylay him or burn his house any night. A BIG OIL FIRE. At Washington a fire in the big oil tank of the Southwest Pipe Company, which was struck by lightning, was kept from spread- ing to the other tanks by throwing earthen enbankments around it and then liberating the oil in the basin thus formed, by firing a cannon-ball into the tank.
