Par from being a hard eyed, shaggy
brav.a 1 general, as one might inuigiue, 1
Field Marshal Oyama is the kindest,
most amiable old gentleman it wo.il 1 |
be possible to meet, says a contribn. r
to the Chicago Tribune., ii.* him.- »
declares that be lias no lilMng \vi. ae.er
for war and that it is irony of f. u, a»t
personal inelination, whita has made
him the soldier he is today. Like most
of Japan’s great men, be is not rich in
this world’s goods. He is far too lib
eral to amass a fortune. It is lolu of
him that during the Chinese war no
bought provisions for bis men and
horses out of bis own pocket r. :' i r
Hi 1 pillage the wretched homes along j
the route.
In fact, charity got to be such a
im a!a with him that bis wife, an o
* *

as rcasut'er and dole him out a small
allowance daily.
IHiring bis residence in Paris be was
ofreu greatly upset by the way dtimo
anmials, particularly horses, w< v
abused. Once lie got into a dreadful
Sunday was another beautiful day,
and services were well attended at
all the churches.
A slight change in schedule of near
ly all trains, went into effect on the
Southern Sunday.
This is fine weather for sowing
wheat, and some of the farmers in the
county are taking advantage of it.

of tiie Crimean war she was head of
the Russian order of Sisters of Mercy
and attended operations at the held
hospitals regardless of danger. She
