"Nineteen yiwrv ago today,” aaid In•poctor Hrrnt*—"I ahall never forget that day’a duty. I vra* ordered over tc the Orangemen's headqaarten from my precinct at daybreak—I trae captain of the Twenty-firW then—and took every one of my men airing except old Sergt. Davenport and a doorman. Wo expected trouble, and I had a lot of hand gronadee hcaj.-l by the second story tfin dmrg in the old slaiion boose in Thirtyfifth street, told the sergeant to lock the doon and pelt any mob that vrooM try to enter. Old Dave was as good as an army when it came to sticking. He just sat on that pile of hand gntnadi* and waited. •'Ho had a good long wait, if we didn't. Those who walked in that Woody procession from the Eighth avenue headquarters of the Orangemen to the old Haymarket in the Bowery will be apt to remember it to their dying day. I can hear the crowd yell now wben the militiamen Iiegan to shoot right and left. From the rear, from the housetops. It rained brickbats and hot lead. A hundred most have been killed before the end of that march of terror and death. "It was 8 o'clock the next morning before we got hack to our station. It was as dark and still as the grave. As we hammered on the door and yelled a window in the second story was slowly and cautiously opened and old Dave aaid: •“ ’Who is there? “•Open the door,' yelled the tired Writ 'Open it or well hunt it in.' •'Von will, ebr came from njutairs in shrill tones, and in the window appeared the old sergeant, fighting mad. with a hand grenade in each fist and an armful In reserve, as a lioy carries snowlialla. ••Stand liack thrtv! or there will be murder. Back, I say.” We had ctmie all the lung and Woody way. fighting every inch of it, without a thought of allowing the white featlsT. Every rootb<T's sou of u* would have Iwot killed twice over rather than turn tail. But we ran then. Before old Dave, with his armful of hand grenade*, the army that had saved a city from sacking scattered and fled, the sergeant was left to hold the fort alone until we coaxed him from shelter into comprehending that we were not the enemy. Then ho came down and let ns in.—New York Telegram.

Crist Kills. Grist mills occupy a prominent position in modern farming. By their nse the labor of reducing food to a digestible condition is transferred from tbe animals to the steam engine, and the nrrvoua energy which would be used for the pur pose can be directed to the organs which assimilate the nourishment and transform it into flesh and bone.
