WAR'S AFTERMATH

BY JOSEPH H. ODELL

Will the animosities of the present war continue long after the close of hostilities? Will the friendships of the present war enhance as the years pass?

Two simple stories of the fiftieth anniversary of the battle of Gettysburg, celebrated by Federal and Confederate troops together in July, 1913, may throw some light on the above questions.

A member of the Headquarters Staff of the Pennsylvania National Guard, being provided with an automobile, found it to be his pleasant duty to take distinguished visitors to the places of interest upon the battlefield. Time after time, at that point of Cemetery Ridge known as High Water Mark, where the Confederates actually broke through the Union lines for a brief moment, he noticed a grizzled Northern veteran standing by the stone wall. His presence there was so continuous that at length the staff officer questioned him.

"No," replied the veteran, "it's not the scenery I'm looking at; but I'm thinking of fifty years ago. When the rebels broke through at this point, I was color sergeant of my regiment, and one of the Johnny Rebs hit me over the head with his musket and carried off the flag. So I said to myself that if that fellow is still living and at this reunion he will be sure to come back here and boast about how he stole our colors. I'm waiting for him, and when he arrives I'm going to swat him hard."

During the first day's fight at Gettysburg a Union soldier was wounded and left on the field. That night the Confederates took possession of Seminary Ridge and bivouacked there. One of Lee's men picked up the wounded Northerner, took him to his tent, bound his wounds and nursed and tended him during the remainder of the battle. When the fight was over, and Lee had to retreat, the wounded Federal boy was left behind. Fifty years passed, and at the reunion these two, now old men, met and re-established their friendship. They were inseparable during the encampment. At length the day of separation came, and they went together to the Western Maryland station. Genuine grief possessed them, because they must part again, and probably this time forever. But they wanted some permanent memento of their reunion, and at length, upon the station platform, each took off his uniform and gave to the other, and when the trains pulled out almost simultaneously the Northern soldier went back to his Northern home clothed in Confederate gray, and the Southerner went back to his Southern home clad in Federal blue.

A CAMERA IN THE WRONG PLACE

A British photographer writes to the "Photo-Era" that a camera is a dangerous bit of mechanism to toy with just now. He says that the captain of an English cargoboat told him his ship met with an accident on its last voyage to Canada. Having a pocket kodak, he planned to go ashore and snapshot the damaged bow as a record for his owners. A port authority strongly discouraged him, and on being pressed for a reason, said, "Well, you see, the harbor guards are young men with new rifles, and if they see you bobbing about with a camera you might get a bullet through you!"
