Ho Is a thorough soldier, and has had mil itary advantages onjoyod by but few of tho men In my oommnud.

On others, whon It looked as It ho aud a small force wero ab solutely shut In by a large army, ho has escaped without losing a man. "In establishing his post he has picked out Invariably positions that wero almost Impregnable, and whloh at the samo timo pormlttod him an avenuo of escapo In case the worst should coino to the worst. In storing and concealing munitions of war and camp equipments ho has shown n cunning that at times has mado mo even laugh. I bollovo ho could oouocal n regi ment of horses lnsldo of a Spanish army and keep thorn undiscovered a mouth. "Ho Is a good organizer and a good dis ciplinarian, and at tho sumo timo Is very popular with his mou. Ho Is what is called a Yankoo In his methods, being very careful of his soldiers, cautious of losing lifo and extrumoly strict In koop lng tho weapons of his men -In tho lwst possible order.

No more for Shamokin." While tho Herald says it was a failure, and that "tho entertainment would have made a ten-cent variety company blush with shamo. Shamokin has had a surfeit of rank anil low-class farce comedies, and the patrons of tho opera houso havo just cause to feel aggrlovcd at the attractions that are being inflicted upon Ihem.
