WHERE HE WON HIS LAURELs.
The Franco-Prussian War Fought Under
His Leadership.

His Leadership.
He foresaw the collision which occurred
between France and Germany in 1870, and
planned a campaign as counter against
the French attack, which he laid before
King William of Prussia as early as 1868
and which was followed out in 1870 as far
as it was possible to carry out paper
campaign in the vicissitudes of actual
warfare. The success of this campaign,
one of the most brilliant in the annals of
warfare, was largely due to the plans and
leadership of Moltke. When the crash of
war came France had not only Prussia to
contend with. Bismarck had welded the
jealous German states into the German en-
pire and Louis Napoleon was confronted
by united people of IS, 100000.
the Capitulatiou of Paris.
The history of the Franco Prussian war
is fresh in mems minds, with its record of
buster and blunders on the one side and
of well-laid plans aud relentless execution
on the other side. The German armies
were like huge anacondas, circling and
constructing the badly organized and i'll
generated forces of Napoleon, until Metz
having fallen, and catastrophe come upon
the army at Sedan, the conQuering Ger
mans sat down before Paris, which, find
ing itself between famine on the one
hand and the commune on the other, was
ere long obliged to open its gates to the
invader as the least of threatening evils.
Honored by King william.
King William set the high value on his
services which they deserved. After the
capitulation of Metz the king created him
a count. On the conclusion of the armis-
tice he gave him one of the five grand
badges of the iron cross, and on the day of
the return of the Prussian armies to Ber-
lin he made him field marshal. Besides
this he received donation of 300, 600 thai
ers, ne arly S225, 900, and the freedom of
several German cities as a token of the
appreciation of his ability and services by
his countrymen.
The Later Years of His Life.
He passed his latter days upon his es-
tate at Kraisan, situated in quiet valley
three miles southeast of the Silesian station
Schwerdonitz. He bought the house and
grounds with the funds granted him in
1865 by parliament, where he lived in
quietness until his death. He was a ighly
educated gentleman. He understood sew
eral languages, and wrote a multitude of
works on geography and military science
He was brave leader in the field, but it
was IL 1he ShudE 1hdt ne ldIu the plans
which gave Germany place among the
states of Europe.
Master of Military Strategy.
Like master Chess player he sat with
war maps before him and dictated the
moves of his opponents by his own superb
strategy. His army was one vast ma
chine, complete in all its parts and thor
oughly understood by the man at the
lever. And now he has gone to take his
place among the statesmen and warriors
who have made history. He has gone to
Join his imperial master, William /. who,
with the assistance of the warrior Moltke
and the statesman Bismarck, raised Ger
many from collection of Insignificant
{ states to the proud position she now holds
among the first of European nations.

Defeat in the House of the English Lam
guage Proposition.
SPRINGFIELD, Ills, April 25-The mi
nority report on the education bill now
being considered by the house, which was
submitted by the Republican members of
the committee on education, was rejected
yesterday by a vote of 1i to S. Four Re-
publicans voted with the majority and
two Democrats with the min ority. The
Republicans voting with the Demo-
Gratis were Wilke of Will, WIKI
of Cook, Thieman and Scaife, and
Townsend and Wilson, Democrats,
voted with the Republicans. After a
number of minor amendments had been
adopted the Democratic bill was ordered
to third reading.
Effect of the Vote.
There were some absentees, several los
ing their votes because they were on COM
mittee work and were not notified. The
effect of the vote is that fifty-eight mem.
bers say that school shall not be school
under the law unless reading and writing
are taught in the English language, while
seventy-s six members declare that it shall.
Noteworthy, chairman of the committee
on education, is rejoicing over the victory
of his committee bill, and so are Ramsay,
Merritt, and Speaker Crafts, all of whom
took prominent part in the debate.
Quoting Martin Luther on the Subject.
During the debate on the bill Berry, of
Carroll, turned to the Lutherans in the
house and said: Return to the teach
ings of Martin Luther, who said: 'Secu-
lar authority should exercise its God-giv-
en- right to oblige parents to give their
children an education which will fit them
for the proper exercise of civic duties. ,
What does that mean? 1t means that in
order to be fit for the exercise of his civic
duties he should be educated in the Ian
guage of his country. This is the couu-
try of your adoption, it is your country.
Carry out the teachings of the great Lu-
Their, and educate your children in the
, language of your country, the English
language"

At pro ninent street corner large

Immediately after their return to the no.
