THE DAILY TRANSCRIPT CLEVER SHOOTING. —_—_——_—_____ WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOV: 99, 'os. RESULT OF TWO SHOTS LEARNED RUSK IS DEAD. He Died: Yesterday Morning at His Home at Viroqua, Wis. Virgva, Wis., November 21.—Ex-Secretary Rusk died here at. 8 o’clock this. very day flashed into his mind when he morning: : The public first” became aware that he. mented him in much the same style. was ill when the announcement was made several days ago that he had just submitted to an operation for the cure of a trouble in his bladder. The doctors stated that he had stood thé operation well and would versary of .the very day. Instead of probably recover, But in this they were. white targets fof a mark it had been the mistaken, for he steadily failed until. death came. Jeremiah M. Rusk was born in Morgan the tents of the Federal offi He knew county, O., June 17, 1830. His father was eo 2 cers, He kn a farmer of small means. The beyhood of young Rusk was divided between werk on the farm and-acquiring a common school education. He was 23 years of age when he removed from the State of Ohio into Wisconsin, taking a farm near Viroqua, Vernon county. In 1862 he entered the Union army and began a military career, which was distinguished and honored, . He was Major, and afterward Lieutenant-Colonel of the T'wenty-fifth Wisconsin Regiment and brevet Brigadier-General. Shortly after the close of the war he was elected State Bank Controller, an_ office which he filled from 1866 to 1870. His next public position was that of member of the Forty-second Congress in the House of Representatives. He served three consecu= tive terms in Washington.

Free AFTER TWENTY-NINE YEARS, An Incident In the Practice Work of a Southern Field Day—How Colonel Richardson Came to Know That He Had Done Some Damage to His Enemies, When the Washington artillery was at Morgan City, there were many striking incidents that sprang out of the ceremonies of dedicating Fort Star and of. practicing with the solid shot. The whole day . the war and its memories were kept before the people, but it was not a reawakening in which the bloedy shirt had any play, but more of a thoughtful retrospection, in which the recalling of battles was not with bitterness, but with an impartial sadness, Among the happenings of the day none was more singular and noteworthy than one which occurred to Colonel Richardson, the commander of the battalion, It was during the time when the batteries were firing shell ‘at the two targets, which looked like tiny handkerchiefs on the water, they were so far away. A good shot was fired, and the spectators were applauding the excellent marksmanship, and the colonel stepped up to the gun to commend the gunner, when without cause or without knowing why the memory of a similar shot which had been fired 29 years ago almost to the had stepped up to a gunner and compliIt was when he was at Fort Malone at the siege of Petersburg, which was known as Fort “Damnation,” when the shot 29 years before had been fired, and the-Pourth of@uly was almost the annitops of two Sibley tents which pee over the ramparts of Fort “Hell,” just opposite Fort ‘‘Damnation.”. They were that from a deserter who. had informed him, also that the officers of the' whole command held a daily consultation there, and that he could tell the time from the fact that they hitched their horses around the tents. Colonel Richardson was then a captain in the Washington artiller , and he conceived the idea of scoring'a point on the Federals by firing on the tents just at the time of the daily consultation. He selected the best gunner in his command and told him what he wanted him to do, and that was to load and prepare the guns for a special shot which he was going to direct them to make the ensuing day. The young captain was sure that he had gunners he could depend upon, and to make _ his triumph complete he asked General Malone to be present when the shots wefe to be fired. _. It was noon the next day when the horses of the Federal’ officers were seen collected around the two tents. The gunners were told fo train their guns upon them and to be certain to make their shots tell. Those two shots were made the center of the interest of those in Fort “Damnation” for that day, for the word was passed around that the destruction of the officers’ tents was to be attempted. After a deal of preliminary arrangements the: two shots were fired, and the tops of the two Sibley tents disappeared like cardhouses in a gale of wind. The success of the shots was the signal for cheering on the part of the Confederates. General Malone complimented the accuracy of the artillerymen, and it was then that the captain stepped to the gunner and expressed his approbation in much the same way that. he used to the one that had made the good shot at Morgan City. But there had always been a tinge of dissatisfaction about that shot at the Federal tents, and that was that he had never ascertained whether any one had been hurt in the tents, and for the 29 intervening years that one thought had pervaded the whole incident. With these thoughts in his mind Colonel Richardson turned away from the gunner at Morgan City, and at that moment one of Morgan City’s prominent citizens, Mr. Gray, stepped to the colonel’s side and said: “Isn’t this Colonel Richardson?” “Yes.” “Well, Ihave been wanting to meet you for many years, ever since I heard you had been in Fort ‘Damnation’ at the same time that I was in Fort ‘Hell.’” “Yes?” said the colonel, “and when were you in Fort ‘Hell?” “In July, 1864. In fact, just 29 years ago today,” answered Mr, Gray. The colonel instantly thought of those two shots and wondered if his curiosity was to be satisfied. “Do you remember aday while you were Opposite me in Fort ‘Hell’ when the tents of the officers were taken down by two shots which were almost simultaneous?” minute.
