They have a register of all soldier visitors to the place, and these aro divided into states, with the name of company and regiment to which the soldier belonged. In. this way they trace each other, and sometimes sold­ iers have met by simply hearing a name, and making inquiry of the com­ rade as to where he came from. In Mr. Baker's case an old soldier .. was telling of a horse race he saw at ■•Savannah, Ga., after Sherman liad reached there. The speaker was pret­ ty hard on the young fellow who won race. He had played Ignorant of rac­ ing, and his competitor was anxious to run with him. The time Was set same days ahead and in the meantime the young soldier,' supposed not. to know anything about it, who was at­ tached !aa an orderly .to Gen; Sher­ man’s headquarters, and a splendid rider, found a horse that was a real goer, die tried him' out several times cinity.

None of us look exactly like v*e did in that year q£ 1864. I am sure I don’t Perhaps . that’s why you do not recognize me/’ said Baker. “ Recognize you,” replied the com- rade, puzzled. - - “Yes, me, because I certainly did win that race, and it is funny to me every time I recall the Incident. My competitor was -so confident. He real­ ly knew very little about horses. He was no Jockey, but had plenty of nerve, and With a good horse, he ’thought he. was safe against all com­ ers. «And the “know nothing” he At the age of. fifty he united with the Presbyterian church at Hillsboro.
