If you do not think so, ask any old soldier or Women's Relief Corps visitor here during the encampment. Mrs. Davidge, of Chicago, was most outspoken against it. The way the "Blues" (Blue-veins) marched into and out of the Robeda club entertainment encampment week at the Forest street armory about midnight, refusing to participate (and some of them to pay the price of admission), has caused no end of comment. At St. John's church to-morrow Rev. Chas. Bundy will preach morning and evening. Sunday school at 9:30 a. m. and C. E. meeting at 6:30 p. m. C. W. Cordin, Company B, Twenty-fifth infantry, U. S.

CLAIRVOYANT. MRS. MARTH, the world-renowned and highly celebrated business and test TRANCE CLAIRVOYANT, reveals everything. No imposition. Can be consulted on all affairs of life. Business, Love and Marriage a specialty. Every mystery revealed, also, of absent, deceased and living friends. Removes all trouble and estragrements, unites the separated and causes speedy marriages. $1,000 challenge to any medium who can exceed her in her startling revelations of the past, present and future events of one's life. Remember. she will not for any price flatter you; you may rest assured you will gain facts without consense. She can be consulted upon all affairs of Life, love, compassion, etc. with description of future companion. She is very accurate in describing missing friends, enemies, etc. Her advice upon sickness, change in business, journeys, lawsuits, contested wills, divorce and speculation is valuable and reliable. She reads your destiny—good or bad; she withholds nothing. MRS. MARTH, born with a double veil, is a seventh daughter, tells your entire life—past present and future—in a DEAD TRANCE; has the power of any two clairvoyants you ever met. She tells whether your present sweetheart will be true to you and if he will marry you; if you have no sweetheart, she will tell you when you will have, and his name, business and date of acquaintance. Clairvoyantly ALL YOUR FUTURE will be written in an honest, clear and plain manner, and in a dead trance. Mothers should know the success of their husbands and children; doing things about their sweethearts and intended husband. Do not keep company, marry or go into business until you know all; do not let silly religious seruples prevent your consulting. Macaume is the only one in the world who can tell you the FULL NAME of your future husband, with age and date of marriage, and tells whether the one you love is true or false. Reader, do you ever notice that some people seem to have good luck all the time, and no matter what they do they seem to prosper, while others, yourself may-be, have such a hard time to get along, and no matter how hard they try, they find at the end of the year they are better off than when they were. This is because they have not consulted the right Medium, while the successful people, in all probabilities, have been to one of the genuine Mediums and obtained advice. If you are unsuccessful in business, have bad luck, things go wrong with you, then you should consult Mrs. Marth. She will tell you what your trouble is, as she understands the spells and evil influences. She has spent years helping distressed persons and has brought thousands to success. For advice by letter $1.00. All letters must contain stamps. MRS. M. B. MARTH, 246 West 31st. Street, NEW YORK CITY, N. Y. Mours: 10 A. M. to 8 P. M. Sittings. Mention THE GAZETTE.

I asked, as she laid down the gazly-covered magazine. I was sorry for the ending of the tale, when the gray eyes ceased to flash and the kind lips to quiver. "It is a pretty story, Mr. Norton," she said. "O, no, you needn't shake your head. I'm not saying so just because it's yours. I cannot imagine how you could write it." "Pen and ink, whisky and soda, tailor's bill as a stimulus!" "Please don't make fun. I want to be serious." When she looks at me in her earnest way I am helpless. "Does that mean criticism?" I inquired, leaning a little towards her. "Criticism and inquiry—if I may?" "Inquiry by all means. I'm rather afraid of your criticism, do you know." She is very bright, and her remarks often help me, as a matter of fact. She opened and shut the magazine absently. "What I was wondering," she said, "was why you wrote so seriously, and talked so frivolously; whether one mood was the real you, and the other sham you; and which was which!" "I think," I protested, "I would rather have the criticism, if you don't mind." She laughed softly. I like her laugh. "It is rather an obtrusive question. But I should very much like to know. You do mean this"—she touched the book—"a little, don't you?" "Ye—es," I said, "I suppose I do. I did when I wrote it, anyhow." "And afterwards?" "I keep my seriousness for serious occasions." "Which is a rebuke for my inquisitiveness, I suppose?" She flushed a little. She is rather pale generally. Some people wouldn't call her good-looking. I do. "I didn't mean it to be," I apologized. "I ought to be flattered at your interest—" "In your tales." she corrected. "In your tales, she corrected. "In my tales, of course. I suppose the real answer is, that I do not carry my heart upon my sleeve." "But you have one, all the same?" A touch of wistfulness makes her voice perfect. "Try!!" I caught her eyes for a moment and stopped. I had made up my mind to keep heart-whole before I met her. "Now for the criticism," she continued, hastily. "Or as large an installment as I can stand." "The criticism must not be misunderstood. You will remember, please, that I like the tale—like it very much, in fact." I bowed. "The criticism is—" "That it is a repetition of your other tales." I gasped. "Why, I thought it was quite different!" She shook her head. "Fresh characters, fresh scenery, new plot, original phrases—" "The machinery is different, but the story is really the same." "In what way? In being about a man and a woman?" "Yes." I laughed. "If you can invent a third kind of person," I said, "I'll utilize it with pleasure. At present I haven't made the discovery." "Don't be absurd. What I mean is that your men and women always do the same thing." "There are lots of ways of doing it." I suggested. "At the present rate you will soon exhaust them. Whatever will you do then?" I lit a cigarette with her permission to aid reflection. "I'm hanged if I know. I've often wondered myself. Make them fall out of love, I suppose." "And when you've exhausted that?" "Make them fall in again!" She stamped her foot impatiently. "Do you absolutely refuse to be original? I cannot think you do yourself justice in keeping to such a hackneyed theme—though I admit you do it very nicely." "I might do it better if I had more practical experience," I suggested. There is something about her big eyes and the little droop at the corners of her mouth which makes a fellow say that sort of thing, you know. "Now, remember our compact," she warned me. We were pledged to a purely platonic friendship. I've had that sort of thing in my tales, but it always broke down. "The keeping of a platonic compact," said I, "would be a novel theme, don't you think?" "Would it be interesting enough?" she asked, doubtfully. "There! What stronger defense could I have? I propose to leave out the love-making, and you say that the interest would be gone." She drummed upon the table with her fingers. "Surely there is some other theme? I knocked the ash deliberately off my cigarette. "Upon my word," I confessed, "I'm not sure that there is. But I'll think over it." Then her brothers came in and we changed the subject until I was going. It is part of the compact that she shall see me out of the door. I insisted upon it. "When shall I communicate the result of my deliberations?" I asked in the hall. "To-morrow?" "I'm going to Vereker's." "And Wednesday, I'm due at a smoker. Thursday?" "If you like." "Thursday, then. Good night, Mary." It is in the compact that I am not to call her Mary, but I do. Sometimes she objects, sometimes she doesn't. On this occasion she only tossed her head and half turned away from me. She is aware that she looks well in profile. I suddenly bent over her, and— "How dare you!" she cried, hotly. "I couldn't help it, Mary." you looked so tempting." But she ran upstairs, with her face scarlet. "I shall not be in on Thursday," she called, as she turned the corner, "or any other day." So I went out, feeling triumphantly foolish. Next Thursday I called, and she wasn't out; but she received me coolly, and kept the table between us. "Look here, Mary," I began. "Miss Montague, if you please!" "I don't please. It is quite natural to call a friend by her Christian name." "Ye—es; but people might misunderstand, we agreed; and so—" "I'm not going to pander to other people's stupidity," I said, indignantly; "and I don't consider that friendship should have to be weighed and measured in exact words." I had prepared this remark beforehand. "No—o; perhaps not." I knew it would tscore. "Still, there are bounds to friendship." She shut her little mouth decisively. "If you mean last Tuesday—" "If you mean last Tuesday—" "I don't want to talk about it," she interrupted. "Have you considered about the stories?" "Yes; I have reasoned out my position most carefully—Mary." She frowned, but passed the familiarity. "And your conclusions?" "Is in verse." "O! how nice!" Women always like a fellow to run to verse. I suppose it is because he is sure to give himself away! "Let me see it." "On condition that you read it aloud." She looked objectious. "I want to hear if I have got the swing." So she declaimed softly. I think I said that she had a pretty voice. I made me a tale of the tempest at sea, Full of thunder and lightning above, And the terrors that be when the storm- winds are free— But the end of the story was love! I sang me a song of a raid in the glen, With a lilt of the pipers who played, Strike again, strike again, and die fighting like men! And the struggle was over a mald! I planned me a play of a monarch of fame, And his courtiers in silken attire, And his statesmen, who came like a moth to the farm. to the name— For a pair of bright eyes were the fire! I paeaned the praise of an hero so calm, And so strong in the tumult to stand, When I found me the charm that had strengthened his arm— It was only the touch of a hand! And I? If my heart for a moment be strong, If my tale for a page ring sincere, Or if merits belong to the play or the song— They are only your echoes, my dear! When she came to the last line her voice was very soft, and just a little tearful. I put my hand on her shoulder, and we stood looking silently at the paper for a minute. Then I drew her gently to me—the way the stories end!—Black and White. HIS GREAT SECRET. The lover who "fears to tread" being nearly as great a rarity as a white blackbird, it is interesting to cite one in a professional entertainer, Ernest Blum, of Paris, says Youth's Companion. A long time ago, when he was a young and very bashful man, Blum met and danced and fell in love with a young woman, and determined to ask her to marry him. After several attempts, which came to nothing, he led her, one evening at a party, to a secluded corner and told her he had something very important to say to her. The lady was politely attentive, but Blum failed to follow his advantage; he blushed, stammered and finally said: "I wished—I only wished to ask you if you think it will rain to-morrow?" He returned to the attack on several occasions, but never got farther than the weather, and the lady did not know his secret till many years later, when she was a white-haired grandmother, Then she said: "It was just as well you did not say it, for I should have refused you. You danced the polka so horribly!" Possibly if Blum's feet had been nimbler the lady might have helped him to limber up his tongue, for being a girl, she must have guessed the cause of its paralysis. When the lady of Victor Hugo's choice wanted to find out what was the meaning of his tongue-tied admiration, she said: "I am sure you have secrets. Have you not one secret greater than all?" Victor acknowledged that he had secrets, and that one of them was greater than all the rest. "Just like me!" cried his lady. "Well, come now, tell me your secret and I will tell you mine." "My great secret," Victor replied, "is that I love you!" "And my great secret is that I love you!" said the lady, like an echo. you!" said the lady, like an echo. And so they were married—as Blum and his heart's fancy might have been had her assistance been forthcoming. What More Noble Object? "The only objection," said the stern parent, "I have against the young man, my dear child, is that he has no noble ambition—no high or worthy object in life." "Why, papa, how can you say that? He wants me!"—Stray Stories. Easier Said Than Done. The French have discovered that they can invade England with ease, but it is frogs' legs to beefsteaks, says the Chicago Tribune, that they won't do it. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1901. Proved a Friend to Gen. Sheridan in Time of Need. Upon Information Furnished by Her the Battle of Ninchester Was Fought-Little Phil's [Special Washington Letter.] MAJ. GEN. PHILIP H. SHERIDAN fought and won his first independent battle upon the advice of a woman; and she, be it observed, was a little Quakeress whose sect believes in peace. Of the truth of this statement we have Gen. Sheridan's written testimony. Gen. Sheridan had always fought under the command of other generals until he was placed in command of the middle military division, composed of the Eighth, Sixth and Nineteenth Infanty corps, and the cavalry corps of the Army of the Potomac. This force was sent by order of Gen. Grant to clear the valley of Virginia not only of armed foes, but of all provisions. It was war in all its cruelty, for it brought ruin and suffering to defenseless women and children. But as a war measure it was a necessity, for the fertile valley of Virginia furnished all of the food supplies for the army of Lee. Confederate soldiers recognize that campaign as a war measure, but the writer has seen and conversed with many elderly ladies there who hate the name of Sheridan because of the sufferings which they endured. They saw their crops ruined, the homes, barns and fences burned; some of them carrying infants in their arms were left without roof, food or clothing. While preparing for his initial movements in the vicinity of Winchester Gen. Sheridan found it difficult to obtain reliable information concerning the location and number of Gen. Early's forces. At last Rebecca L. Wright, a little Quaker girl residing in Winchester, gave him accurate information, and upon that he planned, fought and won the battle of Opequan Creek, on September 19, 1864; the battle being commonly termed the battle of Winchester. In the treasury department, in the office of the treasurer, and in the redemption division, the little Quaker girl is employed, and has been there for many years. Her name is Mrs. Bonsal now, and she is a little more than 50 years of age. She has a gold watch in which are inscribed the words: "Presented to Rebecca L. Wright, September 19, '67, by Gen. Phil H. Sheridan. A Memento of September 19, '64. The watch is attached to a long gold chain fastened at the neck with a horse shoe clasp, a military gauntlet and stirrups. Hanging from the short end of the chain is a sword, a seal and a key. With the watch came a letter, of which the following is a copy: "Headquarters, Department of the Gulf, New Orleans, January 7, 1867. "My Dear Miss Wright: You are probably not aware of the services you rendered the union cause by the information you sent me by the colored man, a few days before the Opequee, on September 19, 1864. It was upon this information that the battle was fought and probably won. The colored man gave the note rolled up in tin foil to the scout, who awaited him at Millwood. The colored man had carried it in his mouth to that point and delivered it to the scout who brought it to me. "By this note I became aware of the true condition of affairs inside the enemy's lines, and gave directions for the attack. I will always remember this courageous and patriotic action of yours with gratitude, and beg you to accept the watch and chain which I send you by Gen. I. W. Forsyth, as a memento of September 19, 1864. Very respectfully yours. "P. H. SHERIDAN, Major General." Mrs. Bonsal has placed this letter in a double frame, so that the writing on both sides can be seen through the glass covering. On the back of the letter is an autograph indorsement by Gen. Grant, requesting the appointment of Miss Wright in the treasury department, and upon that request her original appointment was made. While in the department she was married to Mr. Bonsal, and after his death she was reappointed and is regarded as one of the best and most industrious clerks in the civil service. The Quaker family of Wrights resided in Winchester. As Quakers they were opposed to war, prayed for peace, but remained loyal to the union cause. Because the father would not fight, he was arrested and imprisoned by the confederates, and died in prison because of confinement and hardships. The widow lived on with her daughter A and little boy, unhappily because of the bereavement, but with undiminished loyalty. They were much respected by the people of Winchester. About noon on the 16th of September, a colored man knocked at the door and asked to see Miss Wright. There were two Miss Wrights residing in Winchester and the colored man said he wanted to see Miss Rebecca. After looking carefully about him, the colored man entered and asked permission to speak to Miss Wright alone. The request was granted, and they went into another room. The colored man closed the door. Miss Wright was frightened, but he immediately assured her that he was from Gen. Sheridan, and that it was better for her mother not to hear what he had to say. Then, taking a roll of tin foil from his mouth, he handed it to the young lady who slowly unrolled it and found there a letter from Gen. Sheridan written on tissue paper. The colored man said that he had carried it in his mouth with instructions to swallow it if molested by confeder- ates. The colored man then left, saying he would be back at three o'clock. Mrs. Bonsal says: "The paper was so wrinkled that I could scarcely read it, but finally made it out, as follows: 'I learn from Gen. Crook that you are a loyal lady, and still love the old flag. Can you inform me of the position of Early's forces, the number of divisions in his army, and the strength of any or all of them, and his probable or reported intentions. Have any more troops arrived from Richmond, or are any more coming or reported to be coming? I am very respectfully your obedient servant, P. H. Sheridan, Major General Commanding. You can trust the bearer. "Of course I could not keep this from mother, and we were very much perturbed by the danger we were in. We concluded, however, to run the risk. It was the risk of death. Giv- A SHERIDAN THANKING MISS WRIGHT. ing the information constituted us spies, in time of war. Mother and I had no idea of securing information, and had no idea that we would ever be called upon. But, only two days previous, a convalescent confederate officer had called upon me, spent the evening at our home, and, having nothing else in common to talk about, we talked of the war. He knew that we were loyal, but he told me all about the situation, how many troops they had, how many were coming and how they were located. He talked about the purposes of Gen. Early, and answered numerous questions which I asked, although the asking was merely to keep up the conversation, with no idea on my part that it was to be used. Thus it happened that when the colored man returned I was able to give him a reply which was comprehensive; particularly as I told some troops had been called elsewhere just at that time. The colored man put my note, wrapped in the same tinfoil, into his mouth and disappeared. On the following Monday morning I was awakened by the booming of cannon and the battle was on. "Mother and I were very unhappy that day, for we deprecated war, and there it was before our very eyes. Some of the time we were in the cellar for safety. The streets were filled with troops in the afternoon, and houses all around us were on fire from the bursting shells. In the evening sabers were clattering against our steps, and when I opened the door two union officers entered. One of them introduced himself as Gen. Sheridan, and he thanked me very earnestly for my information. I begged the general not to speak of it, as my life would be in danger. He assured me that the confederates would not come back. He wrote a brief report of the battle at my desk, and then rode away, after most heartily thanking me, and assuring me that his victory that day was due to my information." The young lady lived quietly and unostentatiously in Winchester until the watch came in 1867. The neighbors knew nothing of the service she had rendered until that time. The few people who had been loyal crowded about the little heroine with many words of praise, but the majority of the people were intensely angry and were no longer on friendly terms. Little boys would spit at her on the street, and people showed their enmity in many ways. But no one dared to do her any harm. Soon afterwards she came to Washington to enter the government service, and here she has been ever since. Mrs. Bonsal is a quiet woman, and thoroughly Quaker like. She has a sweet face, intelligent eyes, beautiful hair, and must have been a very handsome young lady when she rendered this conspicuous service to the union use. She goes to her office regularly, and is hard at work at nine o'clock every morning, remaining at her desk until four o'clock in the afternoon. The letter which the colored man brought to her is in a glass covered little frame. The handwriting is very fine and must have been written from dictation. Gen. Sheridan could not have written so much upon so small a piece of paper. Although it has been smoothed out for many years, the wrinkles are still apparent, for it was wrapped very compactly in the tinfoil. Of course this comparatively unknown heroine of the civil war will retain her position in the civil service as long as she lives. Some of her enemies at Winchester tried to secure her removal when Mr. Carlisle was secretary of the treasury, but he would not heed them. SMITH D. FRY. Indulgence.

SEBELING REMEDY CO, NEW YORK OR CHICAGO HAVE MORE SENSE THAN MEN Women Dress More Comfortable in Summer Than the Other Sex. The women one meets in the city on the sweltering days of summer almost invariably look cool and as a rule they do not suffer from the heat as the men do, says the Chicago Chronicle. In countries where great heat is regularly expected at certain seasons life is adjusted to meet the conditions. Business is abandoned in the hot hours; leisure, few clothes, sleep and appropriate drinks reign in the place of affairs, which are regulated entirely to the cooler portions of the day. In England, where great heat is so occasional and the people are slow to change their customs, the inconvenience of a high temperature brings no attempt of alleviation. No changes are made in the hours of business and business men prefer to perspire and to fret beneath a silk "topper" and a frock coat, though they would perspire less and be far more comfortable in flannels and a "straw." The learned profession show a wider sense of what is due to climatic changes. Clergymen, lawyers and physicians alike preserve the proprieties and in black coats sweat to their satisfaction. Women alone, when guided by the instinct with which they are credited or by the reason in which they are commonly thought deficient, show men in this matter how suitably to adapt costume to climate and to remain cool, active and comfortable, though the sun shines ever so fiercely. Do men want to vaunt their superior physique that they make such a contrast between the heavy trammels of their own costumes and the easy coolness of that of their wives and daughters? On one side a black coat, top hat, stiff shirt and black boots; on the other a light bodice, open or with only lacing at the neck, soft, cool skirts, open work stockings, light shoes and a parasol. No one doubts which looks better. Is there any more hesitation in declaring which is healthier and better adapted to activity in a hot atmosphere? We do not suggest that the board of trade should quiver with parasols or that the stock exchange should rustle with the flimsy skirts of the hurrying brokers, but why should not light flannels and broad, light straw hats be universally adopted in hot weather? Men would be better able to attend to their affairs and, by no means an unimportant point, would need far less to drink, for they would perspire less. Stiff shirts and stiff collars should be put away in hot weather. When they absorb perspiration they become ridiculous and when they preserve their rigidity they are unhygienic.

Upon one occasion when Sir Mountstuart Grant Duff was in the company of the distinguished physician, the late Sir Andrew Clarke, their talk turned upon old age. Asked to define age, Sir Mountstuart took refuge in the conventional view by which a woman is the age she looks, and the man the age he feels. "Well enough for society," commented Sir Andrew. "But what is age?" "Suppose you define it?" suggested Sir Mountstuart. "It seems to me," replied Sir Andrew, that age begins when we cease to be able to adapt ourselves to the changes of our environment. A man who cannot do that is already aged, whatever the sum of his years." "That reminds me," said Sir Mount-stuart, "of a story told of a caller upon Cardinal Newman during a severe illness. 'He is very ill,' the observer said, 'nevertheless I don't think he is ging to die. He has a great deal of Latin read to him, and he is made almighty cross by the false quantities!" "That is deep sea sounding," Sir Andrew remarked.—Youth's Companion. Truthful Youth.
