ing Saturday, and armed with a twenty
two caliber revolver the lads hlod away
to a patch of woods hardby Gray's
home. Gray was stationed near the
top of the hillside they had selected as
a hunting ground and Sutter and Pierce
wore to chase the pheasants up to Gray
and he was to shoot thorn. After this
was kept up awhile the two boys
came up to see how many phoas
ants had boon killed and found not
a pheasant. Gray thought he had shot
all tho loads out of the revolver and he
stretuhed his right arm out full length
with the revolver pointed at his head
and Bald: "Watch me shoot mysolf,"
and at tho same time pulled tho trigger.
There was just one ball in tho weapon
that Gray did not know was there but
the doctors located the ball afterwards
in the boy's right cheek, near the ear
drum. The ball has not been removed
yet. Fortunately the ball, struck the
cheek bona and glanced towards the ear.
Had it gone up a little higher it is
probable there would have been a
funeral before this time.

HEROES OF THE LATE WAR!
ALL HONOR TO THE SOLDIER
BOYS WHO DEFENDED
OUR FLAG.
Tenth Annual Reunion of the 105th a
Olorious Success.
Five months after the rebellion was
Inaugurated by the rebels firing upon
Fort Sumter on the 12th day of April,
1801, a regiment wag organized at Pitts
burg, known as the "Wild Cat Regi
ment," so called from the district In
which it was principally raised, nearly
all recruited from Jefferson county, so
the name "wild cat" was appropriate so
far as the district was concerned. The
regiment proceeded to Washington, D.
C, and encamped at Katorama Heights.
A company from Westmoreland county
Joined the "Wild Cats" there. When
this regiment crossed tho Potomac into
Virginia they did so with nothing but
clubs to dofond thom from the enomy
and wore without uniforms. They
were ragged and almost naked. Many
of tho bravo boys who crossed the Poto
mac never returned to their homes nnd
loved ones again. This regiment par
ticipated in engagements at Yorktown,

Run, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsvllle,

man wero: "Fight it out." Major Con
sor was wounded six times at Fair
Oaks, Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, Au

O. Rlggs. E. L. Evans, H. C. Wycoff,
Daniel Sharp, John S. Smith, B. F.
Haymaker.
Tho tenth annunl reunion of this reg
iment was held in Reynoldsvillo lost
Thursday and for which occasion tho
town was elaborately decorated with
flags, bunting and ovorgroon, with
nuniorous streamers floating in tho
broezo with tho word "Welcomo" on
them. Two arches spanned tho iron
bridgo so as to cross nnd a small cannon
wus placed on tho top of them. Tho
citizens of West Reynoldsvillo woro not
behind with decorations, Tho day wus
n beautiful 0110 for tho autumn season
and everything seemed favorable for
tho old soldiers having a pleasant time,
and according to tho remarks at tho
cuinp flro It was tho most cnjoyoblo
reunion they hnvo ever participated in.
The early trains brought In a number
of tho voteruns, whilo others drovo nnd
walked to town uud still others caino In
on tho noon trains. Tho town was given
over to tho old veterans for tho day.
Tho members of tho 105th registered at
Esq. John M. Hays' ollleo and received
badges mid tho comrades of tho other
regiments registered at Esq. E. Neff's
ollleo and received tickets for a freo
dinner, tho badges of tho niombors of
tho 105th pnssed thorn Into tho banquet
ing hall presided ovor by tho ladles of
tho Womun's Relief Corps, and from
statements mado on tho stroots and in
the camp Are tho ladles touched tho
hearts through thoir mouths of tho
comrades who partook of their hospl
talltlos. Almost five hundred men,
women and children woro fed by the
W. R. C.
At tho plncos for registering it wns
found that there wore 210 old soldiers In
town, 113 of the 105th and 100 of other
regiments. Tho 105th register showed
tho following: Field and staff 3, Co. A
10, B 17, C 0. D 10, E4, F 4, G 12, H 24,

crowds ot peoplo woro scattered along
the line of march to cheer, wave flags and
hunkorohlofs at tho old veterans as they
passed by. The thirty years that have
boon struck olT tho dlul ot time since
the surrender of Lee has robbed many
of the soldiers of their alertness and It
is only a matter of a tow more years un
til there will not be enough of thom
loft to parado the Btreots of this or any
other town. Since the rounlon last
year fifteen of the regiment have re
