Here In America the war correspondent

tor of a daily evening paper, and well
remember with what feverish anxiety we
awaited the arrival of the pony express"
with war news. There were no railroads or
telegraph lines in our section in those
days, and few steamboats, with much
| speed, that our chief dependence for
rapid transit was on the pony express, -
a good thing of its kind then.
The first noted war correspondent at that
period was the late Col. George wilkins
Kendall of the New Orleans Picayune.
a man whose activity and enterprise were
equal TO his mental vigor and capa bilty.
This was over fifty years ago, when there
were no yellow journals no steam
yachts, private telegraph wires, setc., and
Col. Kendall had started OUT as a pioneer
! in a new field OF newspaper enterprise.
| We are amazed at the enormous sums

/ war news by correspondents in the present

ed furnishes one of the sublimest pictures
of the war, and his fortitude and patient
suffering under great privations and hard
ships form a brilliant page In the history
of his war experiences From the very
Jaws of death he rallied and held on to
life with a tenacity that finally put him
on the road to recovery, but he will al
ways be a sufferer from his terrible
wounds, These are the men who fully
illustrate the courage, the fidelity, the re-
liability and the unselhsh patriotism of
the true war correspondent. and by them
should this noble profession be judged by
a critical public. In these modern times
war correspondents of the Davis, Crane,
Bigelow, Hawthorne type, being novehsts
by profession, sometimes weave a thread
of romance into their war reports, and
yet they have accomplished some remark
ably good work during the present war.
The world win never realize how much
the war correspondents suffered at Santi-
ago, both in dangers and haTdshlps.

verses, two of which are herewith added
as a fitting close TO his article:
"Who kissed the correspondent--the fell

And told the fellows who staid at home
What the boys were fighting for?
DO the great throngs ever cheer him when

So strong is popular interest in the per-
sonalty of Edward Box that few men in
America have been so much sought after
to appear as public speaker. Offers cal
culated to tempt almost any man have
been made him. But hiss editorial duties
would not allow him to take on extra
work. When he has spoken in public his
name has proved like an electric magnet
as a drawing card and his success as a
speaker was instantaneous. He speaks as
he writes; in an easy, conversational way
and yet with telling conviction, which
goes straight home to his auditor. His
very appearance attracts an audience and
his message holds it.
Great interest is centered in the coming
of the Rutgers College Glee and Mandolin
Club which will be in Savannah the last
part of December. This club is composed
of twenty-six talented young men, who
have delighted large audiences in some
of the principal cities of this country.
