“Soldiers had strange premonitions of
death before going into battle during
the war, ” said an old soldier. "I could
not tell you how many times I have seen
my comrades foretell their death. They
Eeemed to feel it was coming and went
into battle fully prepared to meet their
end. So common was thie, and scr regu­
larly did death follow when foretold, that
I often heard officers upbraiding their
tnen for speaking of death, remarking:
’A man never speaks of a fear of death
without death following shortly after.
It's like the smallpox; the one that
dreads it most is sure to be the first vic­
tim. ’ But the officers were reasoning
backward. In all the cases I saw the pre­
diction of deaih was caused by ax* in­
ward feeling, telling that hia end was
near.
“It wasn’t fear, for 1 remember ‘Boss’
McKellar, as we used to call him, who
came from Eutler county. He had been
a brave soldier, serving his full three
years, never once failing in his duty, j
The day before his three years were up
ho went into the battle of the Wilder
ness. He was so pale and careworn and
lacked so much the usual vigor with
which he entered battle that some of
his friends remarked how changed he
was. He looked like a ghost and was j
trembling all ever. They asked him
what was the matter. Why,’ he re­
plied, 'my throe years are up tomorrow,
but I’ll never see my service out. I will i
be killed in this battle—that I know. ’
"His friends tried to cheer him up,
betting him that it was only a morbid
fancy, but no amount cf talk could en­
liven him. He went into the battle and
was among the first to fall, being hit
squarely in th6 forehead. 1 also remem­
ber John Dunbar sitting eating crackers
with an officer before a campfire on tha
eve of battle. He had a 6ad expression
when he turned, and breaking the
cracker in his fingeis said in a contem­
plative manner, ‘Well, boys, tliia is my
last night on earth. ’ In the dim fire­
light I saw the big tears well up as the
officer inquired what he meant. ‘I’ll be
shot tomorrow sure. ’ The officer, see­
ing how deeply the man was affected,
placed his hand upon his shoulder and
said: ‘Brace up, John. Don’t be fool­
ish. Men of Ohio don’t talk like that ’
But this only made the soldier break
down. In the battle next day he was
killed among the first. I could give you
an indefinite number of such instances,
wh*ch show that soldiers really had
death foretold to them, but these are
sufficient. To me it was a most solemn
moment when I heard a man ray he was
going to be killed. It invariably turned
out that way.’’—Exchange.
FRENCH ART OF TODAY.
Only the Genius of tho People Keeps It
From Hopele&s D<ba^eiueQt.
For years all the art roads have led to
Pariu ' It is today the center of the art
world, a model of taste, skill and knowl­
edge as well as a hotbed of eccentrici­
ties, mannerisms, stilted affectations
and small trickeries. It takes in the
world, takes credit for all its virtues
and is saddled with all its vices. It is
ruled by the quips and cranks of what
at times eeems outrageous fortune; it is
magnified and belittled; it is over­
praised and underpraised; it seems to be
rising to lofty heights at times and then
again to be sinking into the mire* It is
at once the best and the worst art cen
ter in the world, a crucible where all
elements mix, all become alloyed, and
yet all average up a respectable grade
of amalgam. That which keeps it from
hopeless debasement is the art genius of
the French people Has that art genius
ever reached is apogee? Has it fulfilled
its mission and voiced the finer feelings,
of France, as painting once did in Italy
and Spain? Did we accept the exhibit
at the World’s fair as a criterion we
might think her day was about finished,
that her artists had said all there was
for them to say, but the representation
was inadequate.
Tha French stand sponsor for all the
academic emptiness displayed there, fcr
all the stud.», recitation, all the exag­
gerated realism, all the tawdry senti­
ment, and yet at heart they have little
sympathy with them. The academia
was foisted upon them early in life by
the example of Italy and the misdirect­
ed energy of royalty. Poussin or Lebrun
was no more French in thought or meth­
od than Corneille. The monarchy up­
held the academic because it smacked
cf heroism and the empire because it
fostered the military spirit, but the re­
public has barely tolerated it, and the
radicals have always hated it. It is the
bete noir of French art, against which

Judging from something that took

the faculty for scolding after they are

into cue cf ths express company’s office;
with a postal card she had received iron,
the company stating that a package wm
there for her. She presented the card1
and asked for the package. Then the
trouble began. The agent first asked hei
where she expected the package from.
“Most anywhere,” she replied.
"But that isn’t satisfactory,” said
the agent. "Is there any place in par
ticular you expect a package to be tent
from?”
"Yes..a goed many places in particu­

"Well, what is it you expect?” asked
the agent.
"I expect a good many things,” she
retorted, banging the point cf her um­

"and, what’s mere if there is a package
