Bmith." Such was the cablegram received yesterday afternoon by Horace Eateman from his Cson, Smith Bate-man, dated at Colon, Panama, June 9. The friends of the young men have no other information about their death. They were both employed, at last accounts, on trains runuing across the isthmus, Morgan as eDginc-er and Cheney as (conductor of a construction train. An accident may have occurred, or what is most feared, the unfortunate men may have been the victims of yellow fever, which is epidemic there. There are no fears concerning the war troubles because everything peaceful in their im mediate vicinity.

It is thought that William Lyncb.a son of Thomas Lynch, left the isthmus June 5 for home, and that he will arrive here the 15th and may bring some information; otherwise, nothing will be heard from there until letters come about the 20th, unless other cablegrams are sent. Byron D. Morgan left Rutland for Panama last year about June 1. He had been there four years, excepting a por tion of the summer of each year, which was spent in Rutland. He has purposed coming home this month, but his wife received a letter from him last week saying that be should stay there until July, when he should probably return and not go back The blow falls with terrible- severity upon Mrs Morgan, who is left with four children.

The announcement came to her so suddenly and unexpectedly last evening that she was very much pros trated. It is understood that Mr. Morgan was a member of the Knights of Honor and of the Pittstotd lodge of Masons, and that be was also a member of the Masonic Relief association, and perhaps other aid societies, and has thus provided quite a sum for the protection of hh family. Charles Cheney Bnd A. Bowen left here for Panama last Mr.

Cheney had never before been on the isthmus. His father received a letter from him lost week saying that be bad Intended to return home on the first steamer in June, but that be had Just gjt a job that suited him, that bo was well and thought he siioulti slay another year. He leaves no family, but the loss is a sad one for his parents, as he was the only (on and was especially loved by his mother, Mrs. Cheney, who is herself not strong. A Bowen returned from Panama about three weeks ago.

Smith only Rutland man remaining on the isthmus, was expecting to return here this mouth, but In a letter to bis father brought by Mr. Bowen, said that he could not leave at present. The war troubles have lessened the num ber of available railroad man and It Is supposed that this fact ba made It bard at institute were held yesterday at the Methodist church by the Rutland County Woman's Temperance Union. The ex ercises began with a devotional service 9 30 o'clock in the morning, kd by Mrs. M.

V. Edson of Rutluid. The institute was called to order at 10 o'clock by the president, Mrs. S. A.

Case of Fair haven. The delegates were welcomed to Rutland by Mrs. J. W. Guern- seyand Mrs.

Case responded in behalf of the visitors. These committees were then announced Oa credentials, Mrs. M. W. Edson, Mrs.

J. W. Guernsey and Mrs.FrauK Shedd En- grem, Mrs. T. A.

Mrs. Putnam and Mrs. Manley; nomin ations, Mrs. Frank Shedd, Mrs. Ada Adams, Mrs.

W. T. Sisco, Mrs. S. A.

Gibbs and Mrs. B. W. Manley. These towns were represented by delegates Rutland, Pittsford, Benson, Castleton, Pawlet, Middletown, Fairhaven, Wal- lingford, Clarendon and Poultney.

Mrs, E. G. Greene of St. Albans conducted a class on "fcientific instruction," reading a paper on the topic, as did also Mrs. M.

W. Edson, and asking and an- swering questions relating to the mean- ing of the term "scientific instruction" as applied to the study of temperance in the public schools. Mrs. Greene gave some very interesting facts in relation to the enactment of laws making temperance instruction in the public schools obligatory. Vermont, she said, was the first slate to pass such laws, 14 states having since followed the example.

Rev. Mr. Speare of Middlebury being ing called upon, spoke a few words of encouragement to the members of the Union. The afternoon session was opened with a Bible reading and talk by Mrs. Priudlc, a Quaker evangelist from Buffalo, N.

Y. Mrs. J. L. Perkins of St.

Johns-bury followed with very able papers oa "Hygiene and Heridity." Under the first topic, "Hygiene," she give a strong plea for healthy homes, plenty of sunlight, pure and fresh air, wholesome food and total abstinence from alcoholic liquors, presenting possible solutions in a decidedly common sense way for many of the questions relating to health and happiness that are troubling or ought to trouble everybody. Under the second topic, "Heredity," was presented maDy facts relating to the conveyance of good or evil qualities or habits from one generation to another. Miss S. A. Uoguc of Pittsford followed with a paper on "The Necessity of Right Principle in Action," and Miss V.

C. Terrill of Rutland with remarks on the poor outside the almshouses and the rjecestity of wisely caring for them, illustrating her remarks by bits of practical experience from real life in and about Rutland. Mrs. Guernsey followed, speaking briefly on evangelistic work. The main feature of last evening's session was the address by Mrs.

G. Greene of St. Albans on "Today in the Light of Yesterday," drawing many lessons from the experience of the past to guide those who desired to live a better life and; to prepare for the great work of the future. Lack of space prevents a del ailed report of the address. POST P.OBSKT3 MEETING.

Miss Kitty E. Bpeltman's house on is ranks, that lie would prooaoiy remember me; while I would remember him more distinctly becaune he was the chief engineer on the staff of Gen. Bolt ia the Mexican war. When 1 had left camp that morning, I had not expected the result so soos that was then taking place, and consequently waa ia rough garb, and, I believe, without a sword, as I ufcually was when on horseback oa the field, wearing a soldier's blouse for a coat, with shoulder straps of my rauk to indicate who I was to the army. When I went into the house I found Gen.

Lee. We erected each other, and after shakinghands took cur seats. What his feeiisgs were do not know being a man of much dignity and with an impenetrable face, it was impossible to say whether he felt iawardly ad that the end had finally come, or whether he felt sadly over the result and was too manly to show it. Whatever his feelings were, they were entirely concealed from observation but my own feelings which had been quite apparent oa the receipt otjbis letter, were sad and depressed. I felt like anything rather than rejoicing at the downfall of a foe that had fought so long and gallant ly and had eu tiered so niucn for a cause which I believed to be oue of the worst for which a people ever fought, and for which there was not the least preteit.

1 do not question, however, the sincerity of the great mass of those who were opposed to us. Gen. Lee was dressed in full uniform, entirely new, and wearing a sword of considerable value, very likely the sword that had been presented by the state of Virginia at all events, it was an entirely different sword from the one that would ordinarily be worn in the field. In my rough traveling suit, whieh was the uniform of a private, with the straps of a General, I must have contrasted very strangely with a man so handsomely dressed six feet high, and of faultless form. But this was not a matter that I thought of until afterward.

Gen. Lee and I soon fell into a conversation about old army times. He remarked that he remembered me very well in the old army, and I told him as a matter of course I remembered him perfectly, but owing to the difference in years there being about sixteen years fferencein our ages and our rank, I thought it very likely I had not attracted bis attention sufficiently to be remembered after such a long period. Our conversation grew so pleasant that I almost forgot the object of our meeting. Geo.

Lee at that time was accompanied by one of his staff officers, a Col. Marshall. I had all of my staff with me, a good portion of whom were in the room during the whole of the interview. How Brags Ctuftrreled with IllinaelC From Gen. Grant's New Book.

I have heard a story in the old army very characteristic of Bragg. On one occasion, when stationed at a post of several companies, commanded by a field officer, he was himself commanding one of the companies, and at the same time acting post quartermaster and commissary. He was a first lieutenant at the time but his captaiu was detached on other duty. As commander of the com-pany, be made a requisition upon the quartermaster himself for something he wanted. As qunrtermaster, he declined to fill the requisitioned endorsed on the back of it bis reason for so doing.

As company commander he responded to this, urging that bis requisition called for nothing but what he was eotitlc-d to, and that it was the duly of the quartermaster to fill it. The quartcrmester still persisted that he was right. In this condition of affairs Bragg referred the whole matter to the commanding officer. The latter when he saw the nature of the mat ter referred, exclaimed "My God, Mr. Braeg, you have quarreled with every officer in the army, and now you are quarreling with yourself." Longslreet waa an entirely different man.

Another Police Outrage. From the utlca observer. "Is it true that the sacred concert busi ness is to be stopped by the police he asked at headquarter yesterday. "lcs, sir." "Humph! Won't allow 'em any more, eh "No, sir." "Pshaw But that floors us." "Were you going to give a sacred con cert "Why, yes. We had it all arranged for nest Bunday, and it was to be a fight to tne nnih witn bard gloves, and 1 was to be referee, and we were going to charge 25 cent admission to the barn.

I found Gen. Lee had been brought Into our lines and conducted to a house belonging to a Mr. McLean, and was there with one of his staff officers waiting my arilval. The head of his column was occupying a hill, a portion of which was an apple orcbatd, across the little valley from the court house. Sheridan's forces were drawn up ia line of battie on the crest of the hill on the south side of the same valley.

Before stating what took place between Gen. Lee and myself, I will give all there is of the narrative of Gen. Lee and the famous apple tree. Wars produce many stories of fiction, some of which are told until they are believed. The war of the -rebellion wa fruitful In the same way.

The story of the apple tree Is one of those fictions with a slight foundation of fact. As I have said, there was an apple orchard on tho side of the hill occupied by the confederate forces. Running diagonally up the hill was a wagon rosd which at one point ran very near one of the trees, so that the wheel) on that side had cut off the roots of the tree, which mane a nine euiDanumcm.
