pointnlcnt at Springfield, H., In March,
1866, and prepared the ritual Of the
order, and after much discussion finally
selected the "Grand Army of the Repub-
lie" as the name most appropriate and
expressive for the order. 1t was then
decided TO print the ritual, and Captain
John s. Phelps, at the suggestion OF ex-
Governor Oglesby, went to Decatur from
Springfield to supervise the printing.
While there Captain Phelps spoke OF the
proposed organization to several old
soldiers and the result was that an APP
plication was made to Comrade Stephen
son for charter to form a post On
April O, 1866, the charter was granted
and the first post of what is now
mighty organization was instituted there
with twelve charter members.
For several years the order did not
thrive. Its aims and purposes were mis-.
understood; IL was by many regarded as
a purely political organization. But dur
ing the last ten or fifteen years this
erroneous impression has been gradually
removed and the true aims and princi-
piles of the order are becoming better
understood and appreciated. 1t is now
becoming recognized as a great benevo-
lent order, the principal purposes OF
which are TO preserve the spirit of COM
radeship cemented on many battle
cid: to minister to the sick and dis
abled, bury the dead aud assist the
widow and orphan. In doing this 1t has
expended many millions during the
twenty-five years of its existence. The
rrports of the acknowledgement for the
last fiscal year show that $221, $50 were
expended during that period for the re-
lief of comrades, eX-soldiers and their
families. and nearly $4,000 veterans and
their families, were thus relieved. The
growth of the order has been marvellous.
In less than twenty-five years it has
outgrown every other fraternal order in
this country except the Masons and
Odd-Fellows The Grand Army has
now 1000 posts scattered over the
United States and Canada, with mem
bership of nearly half million, and
about eight hundred thousand veterans
of the Union army yet TO recruit from.
During the last few years the order
has devoted considerable attention tC
the erection and maintenance of homes
for the aged and infrm, and the build
ing of monuments to heroes OF the wal
and memorial halls in various parts oI
the country. The most important un'
dertaking Of this nature is the plan fol
the erection of magnificent memoria
hall at Decatur, that will stand as per
petual memento to the Grand Army
and which will be constructed so as u
preserve the records of departments anC
posts, trophies, relics. curiosities, litera
ture, pictures, and whatever may serve
to illustrate the history of the UnioI
army and its achievements. The hall i
to be erected by voluntary contribution
from members and posts. and will prob
ably be maintained by a small assess
ment annually levied on members of tn
Grand Army.

The Grand Army has now attained
such proportions, is so widely extended,
and has on It's muster rolls so many emf
nent men in American military history
that a brief sketch OF its organization
and present condition is OF general inter
est. The first post OF the Grand Army
was organized in Decatur April 8, 1866.
The men to whose ability, loyalty and
perseverance, the order is indebted for its
existence and magnificent organization
were Benjamin Franklin Stephenson and
Rev. w. q. Rntledge, both OF Illinois.
Comrade Stephenson was born In Wayne
County, Illinois, in 1922, and spent his
early youth and manhood In Sangamon
County. He entered the army In 1861
and served TIL 1864, when he met Com
rade Rutledge, who was serving as Chap
lain In Sherman's expedition OF that
year. These two comrades conceived
and discussed plans for the organization
OF q permanent society TO preserve the
friendship Of war and provide mutual aid
in time OF peace.

A River that Flows Inland

There is an interesting instance of
water flowing inland from the sea. 1t
is found on the island of Cephalonia in
the Ionian sea, west of Greece. The
phenomenon occurs on the southwest
side of the island near the small town
and port of Argostoli. Two streams
flow at short distance from one an
other, straight from the sea, for few
yards, and then follow different courses.
One turns at right angles and runs for
some ways parallel with the shore and
close to it. Then it turns again toward
the sea, and running, of course, deeper
and deeper, doubles completely under
itself, thus forming a loop, and finally
passes out of sight deep down in q
landward direction In its course it
turns two -four mills, which will give
an idea of the strength of the current.
There is no tide in the sea here, and
the flow of the salt water brook is
perfectly steady and continuous. The
other stream disappears in the ground
in o similar way. This curious phe-
nomenon has not attracted much at
tention because Argostoh is not on one
of the regular tourist routes. No one
knows what becomes of this water, but
it probably flows to some subterranean
reservoir, and it may have something
to do with the earthquakes that occur
in that neighborhood once in a long
while, or, possibly, it feeds some dis
tant volcano, for, as is well known, the
most generally accepted theory of the
cause Of volcanic eruptions is, that
they are due to steam generated from
water, admitted through cracks in the
earth's crust, or in some other way
