claim aloud the ioyonS Easter carols

The Last Commander.

General Nelson A. Miles will prob
ably be the last of the great generals OF
the war of the rebellion to command the
army of the United States. He will not
reach the age limit for retirement for
eight years yet, in August, 1908, and by
that time all of the major generals and
brigadier generals now in the active
service will have been retired. General
Ruger has but year to serve; General
Merritt retires in 1900; General Brooke,
the present senior brigadier general, in
1909; General Wheaton in 1897, Gen.
eral Otis in 1909, General Forsyth in
1898 and General Bliss and General
Coppinger in 1899. 1t will thus be seen
that General Miles service, should he
live to reach the age for retirement, will
outlast ali the really prominent officers
now ON the active hst.-Minneapolis
