# The Czechoslovak Review/Volume 1/Three brothers in three armies

THREE BROTHERS IN THREE ARMIES
An incident is related in the Aberdeen (S. D.) News, August 15, which illustrates the position of many Bohemians in this country. The story is this:
Charles Mejstrik, a young Bohemian whose home is in Bon Homme county, who has enlisted in the military service of the United States, furnishes a striking example of devotion and sacrifice for the cause of humanity. Young Mejstrik received a college education in Bohemia prior to coming to the United States.
His father is an officer in the Austrian army, now supposed to be fighting on the eastern front. When Archduke Ferdinand was assassinated in 1914, young Mejstrik sensed the impending calamity in which Europe would be involved, and, not sympathizing with Prussianism, determined to leave Bohemia while he could.
He barely had time to leave before war was declared. After a round-about journey he finally reached South Dakota. Since the outbreak of the war two of his brothers have escaped from Bohemia, and one is fighting with the Russian armies while the other is serving with the allies in France.
In this case the Biblical prophecy of father against sons proves literally true.”

# The Czechoslovak Review/Volume 3/Kramář sends greetings

KRAMÁŘ SEND GREETINGS.
Next to Masaryk, Dr. Karel Kramář, premier of the Czechoslovak Republic, is the biggest man of Bohemia. He is also one of the two delegates to the peace conference.
Upon his arrival in Paris at the end of January Premier Kramář sent the following cablegram to Chicago, addressed to the Czechoslovak Board, Bohemian National Alliance and Slovak League:
“Having just arrived in France and before entering upon the work of the peace conference I am very happy to address to all Czechoslovaks in the United States, on behalf of the government of the Czechoslovak Republic, an expression of our greatest gratitude for all their work in the cause of our independence and liberty. You have worked as true American and Czechoslovak patriots; you have helped our nation and all the Allies. Free Czechoslovak Republic can never forget the services you have rendered in doing your national duty.
“Prague and Slovakia hope to see soon your delegates on the soil of the liberated republic.”
# The Circus Lion

First published in The Bulletin, 16 August 1906
The spoil of cunning human hands The tawny lion lies, Dreaming, perchance, of desert sands And far-off Lybian skies.
He sees the tombs of kings rise dark The moonlight on the plain... While a pale, narrow-shouldered clerk Makes comments on his mane!
He rises, snarling at the hands That point their feeble fun, And longs upon those midnight sands To see the red blood run.
He beats the rough boards with his tail, His great jaws gnash their rage, But what can royal strength avail Against a bar-set cage?
His muscles strain, his eyes go dark, He crouches for a spring... Secure, the flaccid, weakling clerk Laughs at the Captive King!

​Jones, John, the third son of Thomas Jones, one of the early settlers in New South Wales, was born in Sydney in March 1809. Early in life he entered into commercial ventures, and was part owner of several whaling vessels, which made New Zealand their headquarters. In 1839 he bought an extensive property from the natives at Waikouaiti, in what was afterwards the province of Otago, and in the following year induced some thirteen families to proceed from New South Wales and settle in the new colony. Mr. Jones was thus the original settler in Otago, and had done much to colonise it long before Captain Cargill and his fellows arrived in 1848. He continued to live in Dunedin, as the capital of the new settlement was called, until his death on March 16th, 1869. Mr. Jones was married in 1830, at Sydney, to Miss Sarah Sizemore, who died in 1864. He founded the Harbour Steam Navigation Company, which was the precursor of the Union Steamship Company of New Zealand, which still has its headquarters at Dunedin.
# The Dictionary of Australasian Biography/Johnston, Hon. James Stewart

Layout 2
​Johnston, Hon. James Stewart, was the only son of James Johnston, of the Paper Mills, Midcalder, near Edinburgh, and was born at that city in Feb. 1811. He studied for the medical profession at the university, but ultimately abandoned it, and went to the West Indies, where, after two years, his health broke down, and he returned to Scotland. In 1838 he went to Tasmania, where he received a Government appointment in the office of the Superintendent of Convicts. In 1840 Mr. Johnston left for Port Phillip (Victoria), and acting in a mercantile capacity, started an hotel in Melbourne, where he became a member of the City Council, and ultimately an alderman. He gave up hotel-keeping about 1846, and was elected one of the first representatives of the city of Melbourne in the Legislative Council, then the only chamber, Mr. (afterwards Sir John) O'Shanassy and the late Mr. Westgarth being his colleagues. About this time he went into partnership with the late Mr. Edward Wilson (q.v.) in a cattle station near Dandenong, but the venture did not pay, and the partnership was dissolved, Mr. Johnston persuading Mr. Wilson to take to literary pursuits. Subsequently the two purchased the Melbourne Argus in equal co-partnership. The new venture did not at first pay better than the cattle station, and in 1852 Mr. Johnston sold his share to Mr. Gill, who resold it to Mr. Lauchlan Mackinnon, whose interests Mr. Johnston subsequently represented in the management of the Argus when Mr. Mackinnon went to Europe. In 1853 Mr. Johnston resigned his seat in the Legislative Council, and went to England, returning to Victoria in July 1858. Twelve months later he was elected a member of the Legislative Assembly under the new Constitution for the district of St. Kilda, and was re-elected on taking office in Nov. 1860 in the Heales administration as Vice-President of the Board of Lands and Works and Commissioner of Public Works. Mr. Johnston and Mr. R. S. Anderson, then Commissioner of Customs, resigned simultaneously In Feb. 1861, and both joined the O'Shanassy Government in the same capacities in Nov. 1861, and held office till the latter Ministry retired in June 1863.

​Johnston, Robert Mackenzie, F.L.S., son of Lachlan Johnston, was born at Petty, near Inverness, in the north Highlands of Scotland, on Nov. 27th, 1844. His earlier years were spent in the railway service ​in Scotland. He received the greater part of his scientific education in the Andersonian University, Glasgow, where he studied botany, geology, and chemistry, under Professors Kennedy, Crosskey, and Penny. In 1870 Mr. Johnston emigrated to Australia, and in the same year was engaged by the Tasmanian Government Railway Commissioners to initiate a system of accounts and audit for the Launceston and Western Railway. He was head of the account and audit department of Government railways from 1872 to 1881, when he was transferred to the Auditor-General's department as chief clerk. In the same year he was selected by the Government to organise a new statistical department, and received the appointment of Government Statistician and Registrar-General for Tasmania. Mr. Johnston is the author of the "Tasmanian Official Record," published annually since 1890 by the Government. This work, which is a cyclopedia of information relating to the colony, has received high praise from competent authorities for its completeness and scientific method. He has also contributed to the Royal Society of Tasmania various papers on statistical and economic questions. In addition to his work as a statistician, Mr. Johnston has made important additions to the knowledge of the geology and natural history of Tasmania. He has published the result of his painstaking original observations, extending over twenty years, in a series of contributions to the Proceedings of the Royal Society of Tasmania (1881 to 1891), dealing chiefly with palaeontology, stratigraphical geology, and the sister sciences of zoology and botany. He is also the author of "Field Memoranda for Tasmanian Botanists" (Launceston, 1874), and "Descriptive Catalogue of Tasmanian Fishes" (Hobart, 1882). It is, however, by his "Systematic Account of the Geology of Tasmania" (Hobart, 1888), that Mr. Johnston is most widely known. This elaborate work was published at the cost of the Tasmanian Government, at whose request it was prepared. Mr. Johnston is a Fellow of the Linnean Society of London, of the Royal and Linnean Societies of New South Wales, and of the Royal Geographical Society of Australasia. He is a member of the Australasian Association for the Advancement of Science, and was chosen President of the Economic Section at the meeting of the last-named society held in Melbourne in 1890.

# The Disabled Debauchee

The poem is written in the "Gondibert stanza" popularised by William Davenant and imitated by other poets. The choice of the "heroic" stanza is probably intentionally satirical, possibly referring to Edmund Waller's "Panegyric to Cromwell", written in the same stanza.
As some brave Admiral, in former War Depriv'd of force, but pressed with courage still, Two Rival Fleets appearing from afar, Crawls to the top of an Adjacent Hill,
From whence, with thoughts full of concern, he views The wise and daring conduct of the Fight, And each bold action to his mind renews His present glory and his past delight;
From his fierce eyes flashes of Rage he throws, As from black Clouds when Lightning breaks away,
Transported, thinks himself amidst his Foes, And absent, yet enjoys the bloody Day:
So, when my days of Impotence approach, And I'm by Pox and Wine's unlucky chance Forc'd from the pleasing Billows of Debauch
On the Dull Shore of lazy Temperance;
My pains at least some respite shall afford
While I behold the Battles you maintain, When Fleets of Glasses Sail about the Board, From whose broad sides Volleys of Wit shall Rain.
Nor shall the sight of honorable Scars,
Which my too forward valor did procure, Frighten new-lifted Soldiers from the Wars; Past joys have more than paid what I endure.
Should hopeful youths, worth being drunk, prove nice, And from their fair Inviters meanly shrink; Twill please the Ghost of my departed Vice If, at my counsel, they repent, and Drink.
Or should some cold complexion'd Sot forbid, With his Dull Morals, your bold Night-Alarms; I'll fire his blood, by telling what I did When I was strong, and able to bear Arms.
I'll tell of Whores attack'd, their Lords at home; Bauds Quarters beaten up, and Fortress won: Windows demolish'd, Watches overcome; And handsome Ills, by my contrivance, done.
Nor shall our Love-fits Cloris be forgot, When each the well-look'd Linkboy strove t'enjoy; And the best Kiss was the deciding Lot, Whether the Boy Fuck'd you, or I the Boy.
With Tales like these, I will such thoughts inspire
As to important mischief shall incline; I'll make him long some Ancient Church to fire, And fear no lewdness he's call'd to by Wine.
Thus, Statesman-like, I'll saucily Impose, And, safe from Action, valiantly Advise; Shelter'd in Impotence, urge you to blows: And being good for nothing else, be Wise.
