He Had Lost His Hustle.
Two men sat on a. bench at the court
house to enjoy the sunshine, one at either
end of the bench. One, was apparently
well fed and well to do: the other had
apparently staked his all and gone down
with the crash. For the first five minutes
not a word was spoken. Then the hard up
man ventured the observation:
“Fine day.”
The other nodded. About five minutes
later hard up remarked:
“Time to think of leaving town.”
A second nod. The interval was only
‘ three minutes this time, when the speaker
inquired:
“Think you could cash a check for me?”
A third nod. It was exactly a minute
and a half before he continued:
“It would be a great favor.”
The other put his hand into his pocket,
but let it remain. The hard up man was
now breathing in an excited manner, but
he held himself back for fifty seconds be—
fore he said: ’
“It’s a. small check—one for a quarter.”
The 0 extended a quarter in his
fingers an .I looked up to say, “Might have
bad it fifteen minutes ago.”
“But I was afraid of working you too
fast. I’Ve been over to Missouri for three
1nonths.z:nd they took all the hustle out
of me there. ‘Why, they are so slow ‘ there
that they were three weeks sending me to
jail for five days, and it took me two days
to make up my mind to break out and two
more to dig through the wall. I’ll soon be
all right again. By next week I’ll be able

into the civilized .rorld all kinds of stories
are being told about him, and some people
even are recalling reminiscences of #er (us
taut time when he was a little boy in
“'ales. His real name, it would appear, is
John Rowlands, and in his juvenile days
1e was called “John Bach,” which means
“dear little John.” It is said that Stanley
cares very little for womenfolk, although
he himself confessed not long ago that he
had been looking for a wife for twenty
years. They say that he had a sweetheart
, in lVales (at Den‘oigh) once upon a time——
as far back as moo—and that upon his re-
turn from the east in that year he brought
her a bracelet. It was then supposed that
he would eventually marry that \Velsh
girl. “Then, therefore, he came back to
England in 1872 a number of his old Welsh
friends hastened to Dover to welcome
‘ him and to congratulate him upon
’his splendid performances in Africa.
As loyal compatriots they were proud of
him. But their cordiality was by no
means reciprocated. Stanley greeted the
Welsh contingent coldly. “You must
really excuse me.” said he curtly, “but

THE BATTLE RECORD OF THE SEC-

Fighting Fifteen Bloody Engagements"
and Losing Heavily in Six Great Dat-
tles—A Career Without Parallel in the
Union Army.
[Copyright by American Press Association]
MON G 300 fight-
ing regiments
w h o s e histories
appear in Col.
Fox’s “Regiment-
al Losses in the
Civil War,” the
Second W’lsconsin
heads the list
with the highest
percentage of
killed in action
during its whole
term of service.
The regiment en-
tered the army in
June, 1861, a n d
was disbanded at
at the end of three
years. The total number enrolled in that
period was 1,203, and this includes non-
combatants and the sick and absent, who
did not go into battle. There were killed
in action 238 men, 19.7 per cent. of those
enrolled and very nearly one out of every
five. This sanguinary record was not,
however, attained by accident, such as
being caught in a slaughter pen on some
disastrous field with a sacrifice of half its
numbers at a. stroke.
The Second W'isconsin had men killed in
action in fifteen battles, commencing at
Bull Run and ending at Petersburg. At
First Bull Run, Second Bull Run, South
Mountain, Antietam, Gettysburg and the
Wilderness its losses were heavy, but there
were scores of Union infantry regiments
that lost a greater proportion of their men
in some one of these particular engage—
ments and in others as well. The highest
loss sustained by the regiment in any one
of the battles named was at Second Bull
Run, where eighty~six were killed or mor-
Mountain, where ten fell in action. The
loss at Second Bull Run was the result of a
long, spirited fight, and in every oneof its
great battles (it belonged to the famous
around the bloody cornfield early in the
day. The First corps, to which the Second
belonged, was led by Hooker and attempt-
ed to flank the Confederate position in
front of the Dunker church. The topogra-
phy was very deceiving and caused many
surprises on both sides. Gibbon’s brigade
was ordered across an open fie to the
corn field, which swarmed with Confeder-
ates, and a Union battery was on a ridge
behind firing over the men into the enemy’s
ranks. The right of the brigade extended
into a wood and was here attacked in the
flank. Simultaneously a Confederate col-
umn moving , obliquely from the wood
dashed forward at the battery, now cov-
.ered by the second regiment.
The fight over these guns became very
hot, the enemy pressing to within canister
range. Here 30 of the regiment fell, killed
or mortally wounded, making a loss in
killed within three weeks of 126 out of 511
men mgaged. The stubbornness of the
fighting at this point may be judged from
the fact that the battery engaged with Gib—
bon’s brigade, B, Fourth United States,
lost at this point 9 men killed and 31
wounded, including the captain, and 26
horses killed and 7 wounded. Gen. Gibbon
helped to serve the guns. The commander
«of the Second, Lieut. Col. Allen, who was
twice wounded at Second Bull Run three
weeks before, was severely wounded and
carried from the field. To have fought on
either side in front of the Dunker church at
Antietam was glory enough for r. regiment
to gain in its whole career, but for the
Second it was the third great occasion
when it played a distinguished part.
At Gettysburg the regiment was reduced
to a small battalion and numbered but
300 men. Small as it was it had the
fortune of reaping further laurels, for
the Iron Brigade was among the first to
encounter the Confederates on the first
day and the very first to score a triumph.
The brigade may be said to have fought
under the eye of the gallant Reynolds in
his last hour, for the hero died in the at-
tempt to plant the Union lines securely
in McPherson’s grove, along lVilloughby
run, and this body of men under Gen.
Solomon Meredith was executing his or-
ders when the fatal sharpshooter’s bullet
laid him low.
Of all points along the Chambersburg
pike, where Lee was advancing, the grove
seemed to impress Reynolds as the place
of importance, and the commander of the
division iii which the Iron Brigade served,
Gen. Doubleday, seeing his chief going in
there with nothing but a skirmish line to
save him, sent Meredith forward with the
“Iron Brigade of the \Vcst”) it gained
prominence through its daring achieve—
ments as well as through its roll of dead.
At First Bull Run the regiment fought
under Gen. \V. T. Sherman near the lVar—
renton pike, and took part in the Union
charge on the Henry Hill when an attempt
was made to effect u. recapture of the posi-
tion. In his report Gen. Sherman said,
“This regiment ascended to the brow of
the hill steadily, received the severe fire of
the enemy, returned it with spirit, and ad-
vanced delivering its fire."
This charge on the Henry Hill was r..-
peated by the regiment, the first having
failed. The loss on this field was twenty-
four killed outright and sixty-five wound-
ed, the heavy proportion of killed showing
the severit * of the fighting.
At the Second Bull Run the regiment
had an accidental collision, but the {1th
ing was prolonged and sevens. At this
time the Second was in Glbbon’s brigade,
King’s division, McDowell’s corps. 0n the
27th of August the cores was at (govfl
Vine, on one u arrentou pine, and tone—
wall” Jackson’s was at Manassas Junction,
seven or eight miles southeast of that
point. Longstreet, with the main Confed-
erate force, was at Thoroughfare Gap,
northwest of Gainesville, and Jackson’s
salvation depended on his junction with
Longstreet’s column. This he attempted
to effect by making a detour so as to avoid
Gainesville and McDowell’s command.
The movement was suspected in the Union
camp, and McDowell moved east along
lVarrenton pike hoping to hold Jackson
south of it until other troops could come
up and cut him off completely from Lee’s
”built Jackson had moved with rapidity,
and about 5 o’clock on the afternoon of the
28th was marching north of \Varreuton
pike in the opposite direction from Mc-
Dowell, but on a parallel line. King’s di-
vision hnd the advance in McDowell’s
corps. Hatch’s brigade had the lead in
King’s division. and when near the village
of Groveton was met by a fire from several
guns of Jackson’s artillery. The Confed-
crate leader had discovered this isolated
division and resolved to destroy it. Gib-
bon’s brigade followed Hatch’s, and while
the latter was engaged in front Gibbon
saw a Confederate battery on his left rear
firing upon the rear of the column, and
ordered theWisconsin Second to march by
the flank and attack it.
There was a hill intervening between the
regiment and the guns, and while ascend-
ing this the command was fired upon by
the enemy’s infantry. Turning to face
this fire the Second was soon engaged with .
aheavy force of the enemy. J ack'son had
sent several brigades to the attack. Mus-
ketry fire was delivered much of the time
at seventy-five paces, and here the regi-
ment lost heavily. The colonel, Edgar
O’Connor, was killed. The major was
twice wounded, but remained in action.
During the lighting of the 29th and 30th
the Second was slightly engaged, but its
as were confined almost wholly to this
anc fight, which continued an hour
.nd a half. In the battle. the casualties of
the regiment were 53 killed outright and
12:23 wounded. Of the wounded and miss-
ing 33 were subsequently counted with the
killed, making a mortality list of 86. The
number engaged was 511. But Jackson
did not seize W’urrenton pike that night,

“If "we can’t hold it, where will you find

into the grove from the east Archer’s Con—
federate brigade, of Hot-11’s division, came
in from the west, and the first meeting of
hostile lines of battle on this great field
took place. then on the banks of the Run.

by militia only, but when the \Viseonsin

ness and aim Archer’s men cried: “ ’Taint
the militia, either. It‘s the army of the
Potomac. There is those black batted
fellows again.”
The Iron Brigade had been made con-
spicuous by their black, wide brimmed
hats, and after Second Bull Run and An—
tietam even the enemy could .not mistake
the significance of these unique badges.
The Second was now commanded by Col.
Lucius Fairchild, and seeing the isolated
position of Archer, alone with a stream
behind him, he moved the regiment
around Archer’s flank. cutting him off
from the creek and capturing nearly all
the brigade with its leader. This little
success, though counting for much with
saving of time for the Union ‘arms, was
but temporary and was dearly bought.
The Confederates with high ground in
their favor had posted sharpshootcrs to
command the grove, and their missiles
played havoc with the intrepid fellows who
had assumed the task of holding this im-
portant ground. Reynolds fell, and with
him was lost the plan of battle. His sue-
cessor. Doubleday, knew that the grove
was the key, according to Reynolds’ ac-
tions, and he tried to hold it.
On the Confederate side Heth, with his
division re—enforced by Pender, returned
to the attack. For hours the fight was
kept up, the Iron Brigade losing in quick
succession three commanders and over 50
per cent. of its effective strength in killed,
wounded and missing. The Second \Vis-
cousin suffered the heaviest and here
added 40 to its roll of heroes—46 dead out,
300 in line. W'ith its other casualties the
loss was 77 per cent. Col. Fairchild lost
an arm, Lieut. Col. George II. Stevens
was killed and Maj. John Mansfield was
wounded. 7
With this terrible loss the regiment was
; reduced to a nullity. There were less than
one hundred in the ranks. After some ad-
? cition of strength the Second entered the
l campaign of the Wilderness in Crawford’s
‘ division of the Fifth corps. Here it lost 17
killed, and zfter further loss at Spottsyl-
vauia, its field officers wounded and its
numbers less than one hundred, it was de—
tailed as provost guard and ordered home
June 11. During its term of three years
753 of its men were hit in battle and 132
were captured. In Company A the killed
. numbered 20 out of 121 enrolled; Company
I C, 31 out of 132; E, 24 out of 115; G, 29 out
of 135; H. 23 out of 122, and in K 30 out
of 113. '
The story of the Second shows. that it
won this record by persistent hard fight-
ing and not by accident. In nearly all
great batth and in some minor engage-
ments there are slaughter pens where cer-
tain regiments are roughly handled and
men are sacrificed to no purpose, making a
record that looks creditable while it is
merely appalling. . But it was the long,
strong effort that won thel'day for the
Union in the civil war. Luck andlacci-
dent played apart and hindered or bust-
ened unimportant events. Sharp . fighting
and plenty of it, however, determined the

A CONVENIENT HOUSE.
.1 Compact Arrangement of Grates—Con-
cerning Combination Stairways.
Sometimeego Imade anumberotplans
for houses a good deal like this one. The
differencewasthatthegratein the recep-
tion hall set back under an archway'and
under thestairway. It stood at an angle of
forty-five degrees to the wall which sepac
rates the reception hall from the parlor.
That of the floor plan is shown in the
firsts etch. It shows the way it was ar-
ranged When the plan wasfrrst made, and
a good many houses have been built from
it. The entire arrangement makes a very
compact plan, and several houses therefrom
have been built for investment by people
who wish to rent them. One day I was
showing some of these hmises to a lady
who had funds she wished to put into
rental property, but she objected to the ar—
rangement of the grates.

FIRST ARRANGEMENT.
After considerable study I changed the
chimney, and the two floor plans here given
show how it was all done. Not only is the
grate in a good position, but the arrang -
ment gives an extra closet in the hell and
a recess for the range in the kitchen. The
sides and back of this recess are lined with
brick, and a hood is formed over the top of
the range which connects with the fine
and takes the odor of cooking from the
room. In this case it mnkm the available
room in the kitchen much greater, in that -
the range is entirely out of the kitchen.
It shows an economical use of room that is
hardly to be excelled. Here we have a
grate, a closet, a range recess, cellar stair-
way and a front and rear stairway, all
within a space that is fragmently given to
a single stairway.
The stairway is a combination arrange
ment. One goes up from the front recep-
tion hall to a landing; then goes up the
stairway to the second floor; or he may
come up from the kitchen through two
doors to the landing, and then up the same
way to the second floor. This is a compact
plan, which is suited to a compact pocket-
book. The man who says he doesn’t like a
combination stairway can have two sepa-
rate stairs and their conveniences by pay-

ing for them, but he must bear in mind
that he pays for more than the cost of the
stairways themselves. He pays for the
added room or added size of the house that
is required over and above that which is
actually required by the stairways. The
combination stairway in this house gives
us more room on the second floor than we
would have if we had two stairs. A second
stairway would have to go up, say, overthe
pantry and land in the back end of what 18
now the rear bedroom on the second floor.
That would make it desirable to have a
hall connecting it with the front stairway.
This would cut off from the size of the
bedrooms immediately back of the bath-
room. This would destroy the availability
of this room as a bedroom, and make it
necessary to enlarge the house in order to
get another bedroom. Thus it is that the
addition of a stairway to this plan would
just about ruin a bedroom or make added
size to the building necessary.
In case of necessity one can go up from
the kitchen to the stair lending and down
to the front door without going through
the dining or sitting room and disturbing
those who are th crein occupied.
