GENERAL KIRBY SMITH AS A PROFESSOR.
And yet, as the world knows. Kirby
Smith was a hard fighter. He comes Of
a family of fighters. He was born in St
Augustine and graduated from West
Point in 1S45. In the Mexican war he
earned two brevets for signal gallantry
at Cerro Cordo and Contreras. He served
III several campaigns against the Indians
and was wounded by the Comanches in
Texas in 1859. He was tenderly nursed
by lady whom he afterward married.
He became a major of the United States
army in January, 1861, but resigned in
April, when the state of Florida seeded.
He received his commission as lieutenant
colonel of cavalry in the Confederate
army, became brigadier general June II,
1861, major general Oct IL, 1861. lieu.
tenant general Oct. 9, 1852. and general
Feb. 10, 1864. He was severely wounded
at the battle of Bull Run, a mimic ball
passing entirely through his body below
the shoulders He served with distinc-
tion throughout the war, especially in
his Red river campaign, when he was
opposed to the Union general, Nathaniel
r. Banks.
When hostilities ceased, General Smith
retired to private life, from which he was
called to take the presidency of the At
iantic and Pacific Telegraph company in
1866. He gave up this position in 1868,
and in 1870 accepted the chancellorship
of the University of Nashville, from
which he retired in 1875, since which
time he has been professor of mathemat-
les in the University of the South at
Sewanee.
Here, II the veteran general carries
out his present plans, he will pass the re-
mainder of his days. General Smith was
a great admirer of Beauregard and re-
CARDS him as one of the greatest civil en-
gineers the world has ever produced.

ing the war and remained a private
throughout the conflict, and he has the
additional distinction of being the only
private soldier to achieve congressional
honors. His appointment for a month.
to await the meeting of the legislature
which will elect his successor, is quite
unique, and the history of his election to
the senatorship in 1857 also lakes a re-
markable story. In 1886 and 1884 he was
candidate before the Democratic con
ventlon for the gubernatorial nomina-
ton, withdrawing both times. first in
favor of Governor Bloxham and again in
favor of Governor Perry. Both these

peded and elected him 1t will be re-
membered, too, that he succeeded the err
ratio Senator Jones, who devoted SO
much more time to lovemaking in De
troit than to his duties in the senate.
Another notable thing about him is
that in the senate he is known as the
man who never votes. He is always in
his seat and is one of the most punctuaI,
attentive and hardworking of the sena-
tors, but he is very easy going and good
natured, and his brother senators take
advantage of this fact, and he is always
paired. 1t is said that he absolutely
cannot refuse when any senator de-
sires to arrange pair with him, and
whenever a yea and nay vote is taken and
be rises i'll his seat everybody knows
what is coming, and that he is not going

privations of his childhood Yet with but
ayear or two at a village school his in
nate ideality led him to the expression of
his thoughts i'll verse sufficiently remark
able TO attract the attention of the poet
Rogers, Miss Martineau, Lady Byron
and others, and under their patronage
his first poems were published with the
significant title, "Guesses at the Beauti-
full"
AT the age of 20 he came to America,
devoting himself for year or two after
his arrival to educational efforts among
the poor. In 1856 he went to Kansas
with John Brown and threw himself into
the abolition fight until he was arrested
by order of Governor Geary. On his re-
lease he went to Canada, where a futile
movement was on foot among the abo-
htionists for the invasion of the southern
states. He was in Texas at the time of
the Harper's Ferry raid and was again
arrested and taken to Washington, mar
rowly escaping lynching on the way.
When the war broke out, Realf enlist
ed as private and in 1866 was mustered
out with the brevet rank of lieutenant
colonel. He received honorable mention
for gallantry at the battles of Chicka-
manga and Missionary Ridge and the
publicly expressed thanks Of General
Stanley, his corps commander, for his
conduct in subsequent engagements.
After the war Realf made an unfor-
tunate marriage, SO distasteful that he
enlisted as private soldier in the reg
ulsr army, then engaged in suppressing
Indian depredations in the west, hoping,
as be despairingly wrote, ito get kind
ly bullet put through me." He was dis
charged by order of the secretary of war
and given position in the internal rev.
enue service in South Carolina, where
he devoted all his leisure to the instruc-
ton of the negroes.
he secured divorce from the woman
who had done SO much to make his life
miserable and married again. His sec
ond marriage was far better for him
than his first, though illness and a series

by his first wife did much to mar his

upon him entered assiduously upon his
new duties, devotiug, as usual, his spare
hours to literature.
But the happiness he coveted was not
for him. While he was preparing for the
reception of his wife and child, who were
yet in the east, his Nemesis descended
upon him. His first wife had succeeded
in obtaining rehearing of the divorce
which had already been granted and
began to threaten him He was to be
declared a bigamist and his wife and
child dishonored. The blow was too
much for him. and he ended his own life
in hotel in Oakland, Cal.
Realf was buried in San Francisco
and for 10 years nothing has marked his
resting place except simple gravestone
that recorded the fact that he had served
his country as a soldier and risen to the
rank of lieutenant colonel. Awakening
at last to the fact that something should

be done to honor his memory, few Of
his admirers, aided by the literary work

a movement to obtain funds to erect
monument.
Joaquin Miller, however, suggested in
a characteristic note that the publication
Of an edition of Realfs poems would be
the most fitting memorial of the unhap-

stone to man to whom the public re-
fused bread" Miller's suggestion has
borne fruit, and it has been decided to
publish the book by subscription. If

The recent inauguration serves as
reminder that a person who four years
ago occupied very prominent place in
the public eye has now practically dis
appeared from sight. Miss Rose Eliza

stated that she viii soon be guest at

IL looks as if Chicago had not got over
the notion of having tower for the fair.
AT any rate, the mechanical geniuses
have not stopped making designs for one.
One of these is an ingenious spiral af-
air, the invention Of Carl l.. Lehman
Of the Windy City. The dimensions are
not obtainable, nothing being said even
about the height. from which it may
perhaps be inferred that the idea of out

description of the design is thus set forth
in the New York Safety Valve:
The spiral is from bottom 10 top, hay
ing no supplemental support above the
foundation. The weights and the iron
and steel trusswork have been so calcu-
lated as to leave large margin of safety,
everything being based on well known
and proved formulas of stress and sup
portable strain. There is to be terrace

eral Edmund Kirby Smith, and his pres
ent duties are cast in lines not even re-

mates in the University of the South at
Sewanee, Tenn. General Smith is per-
haps the only man living, certainly the
only ex-oficer, who participated in every
battle of the Mexican war. Although 40
years of age, he is well preserved, and his
flowing white beard and long hair give
him a patriarchal appearance which is
decidedly the reverse of military.

made:
Referring to samples of the Oregon
shipments to No. "a. we still think that
many are only seconds and very thin and
poor, and most Of them seem to be from a
different section TO the usual choice Ore
gon growth" They were from the same
section as the usual choice Oregon growth.
IF this is the best that Oregon can do,
We feel that Sonomas will take precedence
of Them
Now for the vaingiorious part:
Your own growth has given great sat
isfaction, and helped Us more than any
thing in securing the second orders"
Our "own growth" was thoroughly 1pe,
thoroughly cured, baled hot" without
tramping and reminded one of the giori-
Gus days of "a, when our hops got all
ripe. because We could not get pickers to
rush things.
Men and brethren of the hop-growing
fraternity. why will you not heed?
The lesson to Oregon growers is that 1t
will not do to rest upon the laurels of past
years; We could easily have found market
at ~ cents. had the hops been allowed to
ripen, been thoroughly cured at low
temperature, and universally as cleanly
picked as some crops we're.
1t will not do for any of US to set I'D our
opinion as against the consumer of our
uOpS, ana insist That our way IS the DeSt
and that our opinion is entitled to re-
spect.
If these people want these hons thor
oughly ripened, thoroughly cured, baled
whole and withai heavily sulphured. and
will pay more for such. in tho name OF all
conscience, why not meet their views and
count in their coin?
Washington two years ago was at the
head of the Pacific coast states now she
is turned down foot. We may just as we'll
acknowledge the corn" that the growers
have themselves to blame; if they go and
do likewise another year, there doubtless
will be like results: if they will be ''up and
doing" there can be hundreds of crops
that will ''give great satisfaction" and
''help US all" along.
We ought to produce next year not less
than $1,000 bales of choice hops and put
to name the Oregon growth of 1892.
Many yards in California and some IN
Oregon are trained on permanent wire
treliis from to Ga feet from the ground.
A snort pole is set to each hill and the
wire is securely fastened on the top of the
pole by staple never taken down or
lowered. In such yards the pickers have
q sack with 9 hoop fastened to hang in
convenient position, and pick directly into
these, pulling off the arms where the hops
are out of reach. This mode Of picking
makes it easier to pick clean and to avoid
the leaves that so frequently fall into the
box.
