apparently incurable after taking
large quantities of different medi-

that they, as a last resort, advised
me to go to Hot Springs, as it was
the Only chance Of recovery left, and
in this they expressed their serious
doubts that / would derive any hem

Springs, and while there took thor

physicians, which seemed to benefit,
but did not cure me, for in one month
after my return the malady reap

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Having at

GAR. at Columbus, and having enjoyed my
self hugely with big H, and hoping to do so
again at Milwaukee, thoughtif you could find
space in the good old TRIBUNE, l would urge
and invite all the old shellbacks, that possibly
can do so, to attend the Reunion of the Naval
Veterans at Milwaukee in August next. Among
other things proposed for the entertainment of
those attending at that time, is naval engage
ment, in real vessels, on the lake, and hope the
old tarpots will answer roll-call as we want
enough to man all the vessels. Any one desir-
ing information on the subject, by writing to
Shipmate William Simmons, Secretary, Ma
tional Veteran Association, care of Naval Post,

all they desire. So turn out, and get your bags

JOHN ERICSSON.
DEATH Of the inventor Of the Monitor.


Capt. John Ericsson, the designer of the
famous Monitor, and one of the most remark
able mechanical geniuses of the century, died
at his residence in New York City on Friday,
March 8. His death was caused by an affection
of the kidneys, combined with a general ex-
haustion of nature, for the great inventor
was IS years old. He retained his wonderful
mental energy to the last
The amount of work done by Capt Ericsson
was enormous, and the list of his inventions
excels that of almost any other inventor in this
country, and their influence on the civilization
of the world is almost inealculable. He was
born in Sweden in 1903. His father was a
mining professor, and his maternal grandfather
was an iron master, so that the distinguished
inventor was surrounded by influences which
developed taste for engineering.
He was the inventor of the caloric engine,
the screw propeller, which revolutionized navi-
cation, and other inventions of almost equal
importance. He came to America in 1889, and
he was Immediately employed to design the
screw war ship Princeton by the Navy Depart
ment, and this vessel dictated the reconstruc-
ton of the navies of the world.
The story of the Monitor is old, but that of
the building of "a cheesebox on raft" is not
quite as familiar When the plan for this
strange craft was submitted to the authorities
in Washington it was refused as impracticable,
and it was only after the intervention of sew
eral prominent citizens and tie personal ap-
pearance of Ericsson before the authorities that
an order could be obtained for the construction
of the Monitor. But when the order was OBJ
tanned, the work was pushed so rapidly that
the ship was launched complete in 100 days from
the laying of the keel-plate. 1t was completed
just in time, too, for the Merrimac was knock
ing our wooden fleet out of the water in Hamp-
ton Roads,
The funeral took place on Monday, and was

porarily laid in Greenwood cemetry, but will
finally be taken to Sweden,
