■THE DEADLIEST CONFLICT IN AMERICAN HISTORY-
The following article from the Kan-
sas City Star is along the line of that
published in a series by the Herald
some years ago, being the reminiscen-
ces of Capt. “Andy” Walker of this
city, now deceased, and which will no
doubt prove of interest to many of
the Herald’s readers who had the
pleasure of reading the former story:
The most terrible conflict of the
Civil war took place on Missouri soil.
More lives were lost in proportion to
the number of men engaged than were
lost on any other battlefield in Ameri-
can history. It was the battle of Cen-

cheeks in the peach orchard-
peace. Then war—which Sherman
said was hell, and Frank James de-
clares “a game of chess with human
lives as pieces on the board.” No
blood stains reddened the white flow-
ers of the prairie after this ride and
ghastly upturned faces lay upon the
sward.
“There is the spot,” said Frank
James, two miles and more from Oen-
tralia, shortly before the main road

of command started on our charge.
The ground, you will notice, rises
sharply and we had to charge up hill.

years ago. On that Tuesday afternoon
nearly 200 Federal soldiers, comman-
ded by Major A. V. E. Johnson of the
Thirty-ninth Missouri infantry, riding
out after guerillas, met there Captain
“Bill’’ Anderson and Captain George
Todd with 225 men. Scarcely a dozen
of the Federal soldiers escaped with
their lives, while of the guerillas two
only were killed, and one mortally
wounded. There is nowhere in the

history of the world record of a charge J caiity. But he remembered r.ecurate-
iy the entire surroundings. “ I can
go,” he said, “to any battlefield where
J was engaged an-i pick out almost in-
stantly the location. I guess it's the
closeness to death which photographs
the scene on one’s memory.”
A few moments later he came to tlie
battlefield itself. Corn is growing
rank and there was a herd of cattle
calmly feeding pn the pasture land.
Where the Federals stood was the
golden yellow of a hay field. Here
he wandered around for a few min-
utes drinking in his surroundings
with almost passionate eagerness.
Then he told the story.
“The day before we had had a small
skirmish down in Goslin's lane, be-
tween Columbia and Rockport. I don’t
know what day it was. We could
scarcely keep account of months and
years at that time, much less days.
We killed a dozen Yankee soldiers in
Goslin’s lane and captured a wagon
train of provisions and stuff. Out in
the Perche hills that night we joined
forces with Bill Anderson. I was
with Captain George Todd, one of the
hardest fighters that ever lived, but
less desperate than Anderson.
“But Anderson had much to make
him merciless. You remember the
treatment his father end sisters re-
ceived at the hands of the Kansas
Jayhawkers. That night we camped
on one of the branches leading into
Young's creek, not far from the home
of Colonel M. (1. Singleton. There
were about 225 men, all told, in our
combined command. Funny, isn l it?
I’ve met or heard of at least 10,nm)
men who claimed to be with Quan-
trell or his lieutenants during the
war, when the truth is there never
were more than 350 or 400 from one
end of the war to the other.
“In the morning Anderson took
about thirty of bis company and went
into Centralia. 1 was not with him
nor was any of Todd s company. In
Centralia Anderson captured a train,
carried off a lot of stuff, shot down
some soldiers who were on the train
and did other things about which I
knew nothing save from hearsay and
which Todd condemned when the hoy s
returned. In the afternoon Captain
Todd detailed a detachment of ten
men under Dave Pool to go out and
reconnoiter. We had heard there
were some Yankee troops in the
neighborhood. This squad was com-
posed of Dave Pool, Wood and Tusk
Hill, Jeff Emery, Bill Stuart. John
Pool, Payton Long, Zach Sutherland
and two others whose names 1 don’t
remember. They were to find out if
any Federals were around, how many
and, if possible, toll them down to-
ward our camp. Pool did his duty
well. He found out the location of
the Federals, rode close to them and
then galloped rapidly away as if sur-
prised to see them. The Federal* fol-
lowed. 1 have never found anybody
who could tell how many there were
of them. Pool reported to us there
were 350, and he was usually very ac-
curate. On they came out from Cen-
tralia. Pool and his men came in and
reported. Todd called out: ‘Mount
up! Mount up!’”
The piercing eyea of James dashed.
"I can see them now yonder on that
ridge. 1 don’t care what histories
say, they carried a black flag. It ap-
parently was a black apron tied to a
stick. We captured it in the battle
that followed. No, we had no flag.
\Ve had no time to get one and no
chance to carry it If we had one. The
Yankees stopped near the rise of the
hill. Both sides were In full view of
each other, though nearly hal fa mile
distant. The Yankees dismounted,
gave their horses into charge of a de-
tail of men and prepared to fight.
"John Roger, a funny fellow in our
ranks, watched the Yankees get down
from their horses, and said, 'Why, the
fools are going to fight us on foot!’
And then added in seriousness, ’God
help ’em!’
j John S. Samuel, James^l. Orr and
others. They only escaped by pre-
tending to be Methodist ministers on
their way to a conference. Nearly all
the Centralia visitors of that day are
dead. Colonel Turner S. Gordon, pro-
prietor of the Gordon hotel in Colum-
bia, is one of the two or three surviv-
ors. He had gone to Centralia on the
early morning train from St. Louis
and John Kirtley, another Columbian.
Mr. Gordon, then a boy of 16 years,
was traveling in a car with Federal
soldiers. He saw the massacre of the
morning. There were about twenty-
five furloughed United States soldiers
on board, some sick and disabled. The
guerillas threw ties upon the track
and concealed themselves. The en-
gineer seeing the obstructions, check-
ed the train, when the guerillas clos-
ed in on every side of the train firing
their pistols and ordering the engi-
neer to stop. Anderson and his men
immediately went through the car, ta-
king all the Federal soldiers, killing
all but one, Sergeant Goodman, whom
they kept to trade for one of Ander-
son’s men. After robbing the train
. they set fire to it and ordered the

The timber along the head of Young’s

stubby. Here and there the prairie
grass, long and coarse, bent to the

BROKE DOWN
Gives the Real Facts In Regard to
Her Case and Tells How She
Suffered.
Jonesboro, Ark.—-“I suffered a com*
plete break down in health, some time
ago,” writes Mrs. A. McGill, from this
place. ‘‘I was very weak and could
not do any work. I tried different
remedies, but they did me no good.
One day, I got. a bottle of Cardnl. It
did me so much good, I was surprised,
and took some more.
Before I took Cardui, I had headache
and backache, and sometimes I would
cry for hours. Now I am over all that,
and can do all kinds of housework. I
think it Is the greatest medicine on
earth.”
In the past fifty yean, thousands ef
ladies hare written, like Mrs. McGill,
to tell of the benefit received from
Cardol.
Such testimony, from earnest wmb*s,
surely indicates the great value off this
tonic remedy, for diseases peculiar to
women. Are yon a sufferer? Tea?
Cardui is the medicine jnn need.

“When great big grown men. with

a principle'! The Yankee soldiers
tried to kill every one of the South-
ern soldiers and the soldiers from Che
South tried to kill all the Yanks—and
that’s all there is of it.
“We were just there in the brush

How could we carry them around
with us? We either killed them or
