after he was married. He vas once

A ChinananH Pun.

DR.. Macmillan, secretary of the
Presbyterian board of home mis-
sions, told me the other day of a
Chinaman who actually perpetrated
an American pun. 1t happened at
the University of Montana, at Deer
Lodge. The punning fever was rag
ing among the students and pene-
trated even to the kitchen, where
Ching Lee, or whatever his name
was-presided as cook. The house
keeper of the Students Boarding
club went into the kitchen one day.
Ching Lee" said she, you may
cook some hominy for supper" And
the Chinaman, without n moments
hesitation, returned, For hominy?"

Glad to Get His Hat Back.

A number of prominent literary
men were at one time gathered to-
gether in a we'll known chophouse in
New York. The conversation was of
course brilliant, and the repartee
sparkled with mirth and wit. Dur
ing a lull in the talk the door slowly
opened, and an old southern darby.
grizzled with age, poked his head in,
and then slowly drew his body in
after him. A waiter Immediately
started to eject him, when one of
the gentlemen cried out: "Wait q
moment! Let's see what he wants?"
The old darby hobbled up to the
table where the gentlemen sat and
held out his hat. Throwing a wink
to his neighbors, the gentleman took
the hat, and, making show of plac-
ing something into it, bravely passed
it on to the next gentleman, who did
likewise. The hat made tour of the
entire room, to the puzzled wonder
of the darby. The last man to re-
ceive it solemnly handed it back,
with a very polite bow, saying,
There, sir, don't you think you
have something to be thankful for?"
The old darby looked slowly round
the company, and, mechanically tax
ing the hat, SAID, Gen men, I'ze
thankful dat I'ze eben got de hat
back!' The reply was so thoroughly
enjoyed by the company that the old
darby left the place much richer
man than he had entered it.-New

THREE GREAT GENERALS,
They Were Born In Oa.o and Held the
Full Rank of Service

Full Rank of Service.
1t is not generally known that our
army has had at its head but three
men who have held the real rank of
general. 1t has been commanded by
officers holding rank from lieuten-
ant colonel to major general, but
only three have had the full rank of
general, and to Ohio belongs the
honor of having had these three men
born upon her soil. These three men
were Grant, Sherman and Sheridan.
The following is a complete list
of the successive commanders:
Major General George Washing
ton, June Is, 1775, to Dec. 80, 1888.
Major General Henry Knox, Dec
90, 1888, to June 90. 1854.

Lieutenant General George Wash

Dec Ia, 1899.
Major General James Wilkinson,
June, 1900. to January, 1912.
Major General Henry Dearborn,

Major General George 3. McClel-
Ian, Nov. !, 1861, to March IL, 1862.
Major General Henry W. Halleck,
March II, 1862, to MARCH -, 1864.
Lieutenant General Ulysses S.
Grant, March ~, 1864, 10 July 25,
1866, and as general until March 4,
1869.
General William T. Sherman,
March 4, 1869, to Nov. l, 1888.
Lieutenant General Philip Fl.
Sheridan, Nov. l, 1883, to Juno 1,
1888, and as general from June to
date of his death, Aug. s, 1888.
Major General John M. Schofield,
from Aug. IA, 1888, till February,
1895, when he was made lieutenant
general, which rank he held when
retired from active service, in Sep
TENDER, 1895.
Major General Nelson A. Miles
succeeded General Schofeld as COM
mander of the army, and he does not
retire from active service until Aug.
s, 1908. In all probability the rank
of lieutenant general will be given
to Major General Miles, as the mat
ter is talked of already, in spite of
the fact that he has been at the head
of the army but q few MONTHS

What Is the A. P. A. Fortress"

To THE EDITOR:
l would not think it worth while to
notice DIR. Grants reference to me IN
Wednesdays CHRONICLE, but for one
thing. After the doctor had given some
particulars concerning the origin of one
of the monstrous A. p. A. frauds l had
exposed in THE CHRONICLE the day be-
fore, he added: ''It is of such material
Mr.. Gourlay makes out his case. He
doesn't attack our fortress" It is some
thing, then, that have made out my
>case," but in heavens name what is
this "fortress?" 1t must be my mis-
fortune. 1 presume, but never listened
to an A. P. A. lecture which did not
contain one or more of the falsehoods l
attacked in my letter, and some of these
lectures contained other matter so abso-
autely false and vile that their import
cannot even be hinted at here.
For years 1 have read everything in
the line of A. P. A. literature that has
fallen into my hands, including forged
''Jesuit Oaths," fraudulent "Encycli-
cals' and instructions to Catholics"
garbled and false quotations, cruel and
unchsritable insinuations, which showed
abundantly that though their authors
were dead set upon lying, they had not
the horse sense to lie with decency and
decorum; but I have never, it would
appear, been able to find out the citadel
and fortress of tie A. P. A. faith. If
DR.. Grant, who disavows all connection
with the A. P. A., means by ''fortress"
the Catholic religion, have nothing to
say. I am not Catholic, and would
not attempt to defend that religionI. for
moment; but when DIR. Grant, or any
other man, attacks the rights that are
guaranteed to every citizen by the state
and national constitutions-ther right to
enjoy all the privileges of-American citi-
zenship without the imposition of of any
religious test, 1 have something to say,
and have right to say it. This viru-
lent and offensive recrudescence of
Protestant ascendancy must be stamped
out as vile reptile, as a pernicious
weed, as miserable and hurtful exotic
that can have no congenial home IN
s'nation conceived in liberty, and dedi-
Gated to the proposition that all men
are created equal.''
''It is of such material that Mr..
Gourlay makes out his case" says DIR.
Grant. Ali Brother Grant, it is of just
|'such material" that am compelled to
make out my case. could not notice
everything in short newspaper article;
else might have pointed out that even
your address in this city lacked the
candor becoming your profession and
ability. When you quoted from DIR.
Doellinger you might have informed
your audience that DIR. Doelllnger was
outside the communion of the church of
Rome when he wrote the works from
which you quoted. When you quoted
from the shepherd of the Valley" you
might have added that DIR. Brakeman,
the editor of that periodical, who is still
living, has putt on record, over his own
signature, that the extracts in question
never appeared in the shepherd of the
Valley" nor in any paper over which he
