LET GO
Hogs That Were in Qaaran
tine Released
The Canadian government has re
leased the 75 hops which were held in
quarantine at Whitehorse. The hogs
are being transported through Can
adian territory in bond to the American
Yukon, and were held up under a new
regulation which requires American
swine to be held in quarantine for 30
days before being released, to come in
contact with Canadian stock.
Inasmuch as all the hogs that are
coming north are for the purpose of
being slaughtered and it is impossible
for hog cholera or swine plague tospread
from this section of the country, It is
believed there will be no more trouble
in connection with this regulation in
the north though the order for release
was for the one shipment only.
JUNEAU WILL SEND
MANY CXCUSIOIMISTS
Word comes from Juneau that 200
excursionists may be looked for from
that place to join the Victoria Day ex
cursion from Skagway to Whitehorse,
It is said that city will send a baseball
team to compete for the prize that will
be offered at Whitehorse besides ath
'ets to enter the other contests.

A Soldier's Ghost
[Original]
When the civil war broke out I wi a
but sixteen years old. I wanted to go
out to fight but my parents succeeded
In preventing me. It was not till th?
close of the struggle that I enlisted,
Just In time to participate in the last
campaign of the war. and probably tha
most terrible? the battles of the Wilder
ness. I had neither smelled powder nor
seen blood and was obliged to stand
my ground among men who were all,
or nearly all, veterans. It was the
trial of my life.
My initiation on the firing line was
In withstanding a cavalry charge. A
long line of horsemen, the color of thu
dust they stirred up,- emerged from tha
edge of a wood and, making a hasty
alignment, dashed forward to the mu
sic of the rebel yell. As soon as they
got within range we opened fire on
them. They came on and attempted
to ride over us. Bight in front of my
company a young officer led his men.
He was a handsome fellow, with long
wavy hair and eyes black as coals. I
took deliberate aim at him and shot
him. He saw me do so, and as he fell
gave me a look that I shall never for
get. It seemed to me that the feature
most predominant in it was reproach.
Had it been hate or revenge I think
I could have borne it with more equa
nimity. As it was. It filled me with
remorse. I felt like a murderer, I
dreaded lest the face of the man I had
killed would haunt me through life.
The charge was repulsed, and we
stood at rest where we had received
it I was obliged to remain for an
hour right where I could look at the
dead body of the man I had killed.
Then, when we were ordered forward,
I marched over It The sightless eyes
looked straight up at me, and, whether
it was imagination or not I saw again
that horrible look of reproach? a look
that seemed to say : "At my home there
are loved ones who will look for me in
vain to return to them. You have pre
vented." .
A few days later we were fighting in
the woods? the wilderness It has been
justly called ? and when the ground
was covered with the dead and dying
a horrible flame and smoke swept down
on us, burning the dead and wounded
together. My regiment had been much
cut up, and I had become separated
from it I was searching for some of
my comrades, hurrying along, when,
looking down, I was paralyzed with
horror. There beneath me was the of
ficer I had killed staring at me with
that same look of reproach.
"Are you going to let me be burned
to death here?" he said.
I struggled with two Impulses. One
was to get away from a reincarnated
ghost that bad come back to life to re
proach me for his death, the other to
make him some atonement for having
killed him. The latter prevailed, aud,
stooping, I raised him and, throwing
him on my shoulder, carried him be
yond the reach of the flames. While
doing so I had no view of his fRce, and
it was fortunate that I had not, for his
reproachful look would have rendered
me powerless. I lowered him upon the
grass near a rivulet and, understand
ing the craving of the wounded for wa
ter, was starting to get him some when,
glancing- at him, I saw that he was
dead.
Had he been alive?
Under other circumstances I might
have lingered near him from curiosity,
but, as it was, I had but one desire
to get away as 9oon as possible. And
yet he, or, rather, "it," fascinated me.
I hurried away to a short distance and,
turning, looked back. There was the
same reproachful look that I had seen
before. I did not for a moment at
tribute it to imagination, though I
knew the power of that faculty. I
turned and fled from the corpse ghost
or whatever It was, and found the roar
of battle a relief.
I was present at the final surrender
when General Lee and the remnant of
his army laid down their arms and
peace came again after four years of
fratricidal war. We were all glad at
the prospect of getting home, but for
me there was another reason of far
greater moment. The man I had killed
could not again haunt me, at least on
the battlefield. He might visit me at
home In the dead of nigbt, but I hoped
that having been a soldier, now that
peace was attained, he would rest
peacefully In his grave.
Our army was drawn up to receive
the surrender. Perfect silence was
maintained throughout the ranks. The
men stood waiting. I was In the front
rank, where I would be able to see
plainly the Confederates who were
about to march past. Presently 1
heard their tramp, and In a few min
utes the head of their column came
along. There were Infantry, artillery
and cavalry. I was not fifty feet from
the line of march. My eyes rested on
the face of a man marching at the head
of a few men who were *supposed to
compose a company.
He was the man I had killed.
My captain, seeing that something
was the matter with me, ordered me
to fall out and I staggered to camp.
My brain was In a whirl. Would this
only man that I knew I had killed
never cease to haunt me?
The next day I was passing a camp
of Confederates, and among them I
saw again my ghost There were not
exciting scenes to warp my common
sense, and I stood off and looked at
him. Possibly he might be & real per
son. I approached him and asked if
he had been where I had twice seen
him.
"No," he said, "but I have bad two
brothers killed In this campaign, one
In a cavalry charge, the other In the
Wilderness. They were twins."
