Op an afternoon two month* **© ••T was about to enter my. mm in Washington I was baited by a promt Dent member of the bar who said to ms, ‘'How do you feel, wbere bave you been?” "I answered, "I have been wit neeslng a scene Impossible to witness In any other country than c urs and 1 am feeling a little prouder of mv American citltsnabip than I aver did before.” ~ — ~- "What was U?” ba asked me, aud I answered that I had been to Gen eral Wheeler's funeral and there J had aeon e greet aggregation of peo ple gathered together, people who earns from widely separated localities people who represented every phase of religious and political belief, and who by their demeanor and suix’uid expressions showed that they had not gathered in Idle curiosity as Is so Ulan the case, but that they were there to testify their sicoere sorrow that God bad seen fit to call from OBMOg us this dietloguiefcod sou of our nation.

The ennabllug life Is that which, bf.sotAid example, points to and spurs ita associates, mud those who ioUoW to ahlgbai plaacr Bow does he who command our tevtag thoughts in this hjur measure up to that test? To get a correct appreciation of his character the student of bis career abould starg out with tba knowledge that if he were to be df sorlb.d In our word, than indisputably that woid must be—Intensity. It is hardly possible that any Intel ligent youth of today needs a word as to Gen. Wheeler’s ability, but if suob there be I would say to him that in any army, competition is always in- lanes, and secured eminence oomts only through achievement. Gen. Wheeler started as a First L'eutenant of Artillery and at 27 was a Lieuten ant General. His bravery a sentence tells. He rode in two hundred bat ttes and sklrmiabee out of the two thousand those four years wltnissed, wonndtd three times, sixteen horses •hot aider him, eight of his immed late staff killed and twenty-three of them wounded. Mortal mind can coin no eulogy of bravery that can exoell that simple tkaSsasent of fact Yon who knew him so well at that time are not of course curprised at tUB! and •• it te ao largely trui that like men I am happy to la tbla great i of these my fellow veterans 1 Ocmp, and bring you the from the North that eoup- i our knowledge of your brav red with of your eon treatment the fortunes of tor tbs Tb had gons to ita grave. Tor the teal time Wheel- stood at attention. Your with you great leader ware about to be served. He realised It as to you, my comrades, «d fully as you. The ions of oommind was missirg. "Boys,” said ba,-“the war is over You bave done yiur duty ss 7 soldiers. 1 expect now that you will go to your homes ar d be as food cl ticons as have been sol die. a Good bye."— That was all. Trouble cam# from another quarter and war came. Tbs guns ware boom tug ones more after a alienee of a third of a century. Oooe again Wheeler It In the saddle, his obuutry.s uni form enfolds him, his country's bsttle flag, tbs flag of bL youth, flo ts ovi r him, and In his mature years he Is as valorous In Its defense, as reody to die for it at he was in bis young man hood willing to die If need be in his effort to pull It down. of tbalkas I proudly proclaim that the charaeter of not one veteran of either uniform baa been Bmtrebed in the slightest defies V Sol would appeal put upon you this inJuDotior: The ranks am rapidly dlmlniahlrg.

"Peace hath her vloto lee no less renowned than war." Oft qioted but ever tiue, and before I take my ■eat, I w uld impress upon oomradis all, that there is a call to duty and to battle today, as forceful as any ever beard or thought we beard In 1861. It comas not now from the throat of the gUstentrg bugle, it comes not through the roll of the drum, or the shrill shriek of the fife, but it comes, nevertheless. It is s oali to a higher and purer life, to the exploitation In the civil iffilrx of the Natl, n of as thorough self abnegation as was aver exhibited when our comrades rushed to death on the front Hue. I am not so proud as I used to be to predict the ur questioned ex stenoe of this BepubUo to the end of time. Confi dent I am that physical force can never break It down. Ita weak point is the possible domination of moral degradation through corruption Within the past twelve mouths we have been brought face to faoe with the contemplation of the mighty pos- sibte difference between character and reputation.
