1 i rr OUT OF THE CRAVE. "Wherever the torch of war was car ried in the dark days of 1S61 5 it left marks that thlrty flve years of peace have not effaced. Near a small town in the southern part of Kentucky, where a Northern brigade waa camped for mouths. said in Indianapolis man who formerly lived in Kentucky, "tha signs of its occupation are a plain to day as on the day when the Yankees marched away and left the little town sleeping In the drowsy quiet that seems perpetually to hang over Dixie a rrt fulness that the influx of Northern bustle and. alertness has never changed.

Overm the long hillside, where the camp fires burned so long, and the rows of white tents stood under the locust trees, one may trace to day the camp's alignment, and see where every camp fire burned, almost as plainly as If the camp had been only a 'few, weeks ago. "Among' the troops brigaded at this little Kentucky village was a regiment of Wisconsin men, and in this regiment was a young second lieutenant, who succeeded better than his comrades In overcoming the aversion of 'the townspeople to anyone who wore the Northern blue. Though Kentucky remained in the Union, all her traditions were of the South, and she sent as many of her sods to fill the ranks of Lee. and Jackson, and John Morgan as she did to defend the flag to which she was supposedly loyal. And so the lot of a Federal officer quartered down in the reenyr'lle" was not exactly one of unalloyed bliss.

tBut this young second lleu tenant waa a handsome, wholesome looking boy, and somehow gained the friendship, of the people of this little town. and by the fever which follows camps, claiming as many victims as do the bullets of battlefields, broke out in the brigade, and "three or four of the neighboring farm houses were turned into hospitals. Among the first victims of the scourge was this bojr lieutenant from Wisconsin, and at first" his case was thought to be hopeless. Then, when the fever was at its worst and nurses not to be had. the women of the little town volunteered their aid.

Young and old alike, they tended the boys in blue as if ithey had been their own, bringing dainties of their own manufacture to tempt the boys sickened by. months of soldier fare, and flowers from the old fashioned gardens to lend a semblance of home to the sick rooms. "Among the most assiduous the nurses was a young woman of one of the Old families of the little town, but. her attention seemed mostly devoted to the boy lieutenant. She would sit for hours by the side of his camp cot, swinging a big, cool palm leaf, until it seemed as df she would fall asleep from sheer fatigue.

But her careful nursing, aided by that of "the other women, finally conquered the fever, and the boy officer began to mead. "So. during the long days of the young officer's convalescence, his little rebel nurse would sit for hours at a time by his bedde. reading and talking to him. And when at last he was able to march away with his regiment, the little nurse wbre.

a plain gold band on the ring finger of her left hand, and he carried, on a heavy gold chain locked about his neck, a locket with her picture and two names. He was to write to her as often as possible, and when the war was over he would come back and claim her for his wife. One letter came, from Chattanooga, telling of the march, and speaking of his hopes for the future ail that the most exacting sweetheart could ask. And then silence. "The years passed, with not a word from the boy to whom she had given the love of her life: butj in spite of his silence, she stlil hoped, and said he would come back some day.

Though she had many suitors, she turned them all away, and remained true to the Yankee boy whose ring she wore. "Twenty two years later her romance was finished. In lNio, when the bones of some of the Union's unknown dead were being removed from an obscure bnjfle ground in Alabama to that city of the nation's silent victors on the banks of! the Potomac, a body was found, buried at the foot of a gigantic cypress, with no marks whatever above It by which Its identity might be guessed.

TI1E INDIANAPOLIS NEWS, SATURDAY. AUGUST 19.

1S9D. A movement Is on foot to secure to the cltyaa a park the narrow, wedge shaped, piece of ground ljtng between West Washington street and the National road, with the two bridges crossing White river at the base of the wedge. John I. McCormlck talks Interestingly of this piece of ground, on which the first house in Indianapolis a log cabin was erected. This cabin It Is proposed to reproduce and place In the little park.

"My uncle, John McCormlck." said Mr. McCormlck. "settled on White river between the points where the two bridges now are, February 26, 1820, and built there the flret house: a double log cabin, ever erected in He preceded the Nowlands. who came the following November. They built their cabin in what Is now Missouri street, a little south of Washington street The McCormlck cabin, of which this drawing is a reproduction, and nearly all the cabins of that' early day.

were much alike was a double cabin, two rooms, each eighteen feet square, with a passageway eight to ten feet wide separating, them In those early days coon skins, were stretched on the outside of the cabin to dry; sometimes bear skins, and much oftener deer skins. The early settlers often wore knee breeches and long breeches nobody ever said 'trousers' in the fragments of a Federal officer's uniform, with the shoulder straps of a second lieutenant. About the neck there was a heavy gold chain, beating a quaint, old fashioned locket. The chain waa Cut and the locket forced open. Inside was the picture of a beautiful yonng girl and a single curl of dark brown hair.

The locket was well made, and all the years Its burial had not sufficed for the grave's damp to destroy its contents. Written In faded Ink across the back of the portrait was the name of the original and the date June 19. 163. "The chain and locket were sent back to the woman who had waited so long. With them went a letter, telling where and how they were found.

And o. after twenty two years, her trust was Justified out of the grave. And the old locket, with its faded picture and. the little curl of brown hair, lies amomg the keepsakes and relics of other flays, with the sweet, old fashioned smell of. lavender and rose geranium, making a kind of Incense about it." to The Cost of Popularity.

"My uncle chose to locate on the east bank of White river because the river could not be forded, and because, he there were many fish there which could be taken into account as a food supply. There were twelve men In the party. They assisted him to build the cabin, axtd then My uncle's family went into one side of.

The McCormlcks lived in this cabin two years, then moved up the river about four mllea and built on the east bank of the river, almost directly west of the present site of the Country Club.

The buildings of the city are plainly visible, and to the west are the fields and houses.

The upper grove Is an Ideal place for hlldren. Here la nothing to fear from the waters of the lake. The little Joiks run over the grass at will in their games, and swing to their hearts' content. There are swings enough for. all.

I hope the of Indianapolis who are away enjoying themselves at cool summer resorts will get home in time to attend my funeral," said the Confirmed Bachelor. "Life is "one 1 drawn out, period of satisfaction to me until warm weather comes on, but when the women pack their trunks full of shirtwaists and start far the lakes, woods or mountains, then my Joys turn to sorrows.

I'm one of the kind of fellows who think more of staying at home and wearing old clothes than of going away to a fashionable hotel on the bank of a lake, getting into clean, soft bosomed linen every morning and strapping a surcingle around my waist to help my suspenders hold my trousers up. "Of course, the women do not know It, but I have to look after half of the married men In town while their wives are away. Year after year I have remained at home, expecting each summer that I shall certainly be let alone. But It Is the same thing, every summer, and next year I shall pack up the first minute the sun gets gay and leave the men to take cart of themselves as best they cah.l "A married roan never gets so rest less, lonesome and difficult to please as when his wife leaves him alorre at home to 'run the as she says. She also leaves him behind to endure the warm weather while he makes the money that win give her a vacation, with noth lng to do but wear her best clothes and keep cool.

I shouldn't mind how many women leave town or how much money and work their going costs the men, if some means were provided to take the men off my hands. When a woman goes away she tries to make up for tt by telling her husband how much he needs and how little he will have to do while she gone. All he will have to do, she says, is to ke sp the' doors and windows locked and feed the cat. The cat generally has to look out for Itself. Sfhile the man gets down town and wonders all day If he locked the front door or left tt unlocked.

"But when a man's, wife la away he can eleep in every bed In the house, hanir his clothes on the floor and litter up the bath room, and he nearly always dqsa there things.

Th man at home is In structed to turn the hose on the lawn, but he nearly always forgets it.

He could go ever and talk with the neighbors in tie evening, or play billiards at his club. He could remain at home and write a letter to his wife, but he would rather send her a postal once a week. When his wife is away the married man wants to do something that he can't to when she Is kt home. This is where come In. "Every married man that knows rue thinks that because I have been hanging on to life by my eyebrows for these fifty years and providing myself with soma sort of amusement I am the very fellow he wanter to tie to when his family owav for the summer: 1 had a telephone lr my offlee.

Toward the southeastern part of the grove is a good clay tennis court, on which It Is permitted to place a net and play. The low valley of the lake Is sought by many, and there Is no prettier view about it than the one obtained from the west stone bridge, at the western extremity of the park land.

Here the dam Is located, over which, the waters from the lake pour with much noise. From this point the waters of the lake strwtch In two directions and are divided by an Island, which is covered with willows and sycamores.

Strnagles of the Yoaag Attorney to Make a Uvtsg.

How He Ekes Oat Ills laconic la Other Ways. The constantly Increasing number of young lawyers in this city has occasioned frequent remark. Old attorneys say that when they visit the court room they find the bar crowded with young men who aje total strangers to. them. The law schools of this city are turning out nearly hundred graduates eacn.

year, more than one third of whom attempt to begin practice In Indianapolis. Besides the In stitutions In this city there are several other law schools In the State, and others Just across the State line on the norm. south, east and west, graduates from all of which are found in Indianapolis. There are many attorneys in the city who never attended college, but wreetled with Kent and Elackstone under me guidance of some friendly lawyer. There are others who opened law offices with no legal education except what gained by serving" a term as Justlceof the peace or deputy timetable.

The last city directory names 403 attorneys. The directory ten years ago showed only Z1S. Of the latter a large number have died, and many have, moved away. There has been a constant Influx of lawyers each year, who are not now1 practicing In the city. Well informed per sons estimate that no less tnan si per sons have come to Indianapolis in the last ten years to begin the practice of law.

"How do so many attorneys make livinar. Is often asked. The correct an swer ty this Question Is said to bei, "they jdon't." It la estimated that probaDiy not more than one In ten of the young law yers make a living the' first year after graduation, and that one Is usually employed as a clerk In the office of some older lawyer, who taks a ktndly Interest In him, and pays, or causes him to relvn a llvlna; salary. Mar.v others act as clerks In the offices of lawyers, who give them their reht in return for their services, so that they have only to earn their $oard. Not a few live at home and have current exnenses.

exceDt for their clothes and pocket money. Money by Marrlaste. Young men. Just out of college, fre auently mend their fortunes by marry Ing money, and lawyers are no exception to the rule. Many young attorneys take advantage of this means of support.

And live comfortably on money furnished by wife or father in law, while building up a buslnese. Others, whose wives Jiave no monev. but have ability and energy, have found the earnings of their wives a ma terlal aid In making a living, while wait lng for clients. Those who have their own way to mak and who try to maintain themselves and keep up an office from tneir own earn Ings, frequently have hard struggles. Not a few of them form partnerships of two or three members, some one of whom is usually out of the city "on That business Is apt to be the same by which the younsr men supported them selves while attending college.

Toung lawyers may be seen In all parts of the State, canvassing as book agents and do ing other work that they did while students. The young lawyer who earns his bosid and office rent the first year is generally thought to have' done remarkably well. Some beglrr to earn a fair share of money by the end of the first year. Some become discouraged and drop back into clerkships, or leave the city and begin again in some Western town. Others hold oh and.tnjto find something they can do In connection with their law business by which their meager Income la Increased.

A few of these finally become prosperous but tne additional business from which the living is gained often crowds out the practice of law and at last super sedes it. Go Into Other Business. A large number of men in this cltv who started In life as lawyers are now conducting building associations and loan offices. There are many insurance men and real estate agents who once attempted to practice law, and the profession Is represented by contractors, newspaper men, teachers, bankers and merchants of all classes, from keepers of restaurants and cigar stores to men in the wholesale business. But by no means all of the newcomers are unable to make a living.

There are many reasons given why a constantjy increasing number of lawyers find heYe opportunity to make a living In The city has doubled In population lrKthe last few years and more than doubled the volume of uuslness done. Therefore many lawyers representing corporations whose business extends over a ide territory, who choose Indianapolis aW a convenient location foj their Offices, but who have no more business In the courts of county than in other courts of Indiana am the adjoining States. Thers Tar in any lawyers whese business Is confined almost tsxeiusively to the Federal Courts and, to the Supreme and Appellate Courts of the State, but whose clients live in all parts jf the country. There are many who confine their attention to some sp laity, such 'as patent law. Insurance law, or the making of collections, wuo oiso do little business in the local court, though trcy axe counted in making up tne list of Indianapolis lawyers.

It is generally considered, however, that any young lawyer who attempts to start la practice In Indianapolis, without the assistance of some older attorney, who will I rovide' him the means of nutklrg a living, and without the assistance of a father or ome other relative that can furnish sufficient law business, must be content for a considerable pertcd of time with eam'ng his tflice or. if his rent la free, r.e nay consider himself fortunate if he earns money enough la the first few moatha to pay his board. 1 2 Cans for the Batteries Governor Mount has received word that the War Department has ordered four breech loading rifles shipped to Indiana for the use of the batteries of the National Guard. is said the guns are of modern design, and that they will come from the arsenal at Watervelt, N.
