speech in which he said among other
things that it took the volunteers at
Chickamauga Just three months TO learn
how little they really knew about soldieS-
ing. He sa that while all came home
disappointed at not being able to make o
name for themselves In actual combat,
they felt that they had done all they could
aud all they were called upon TO do.
Major Thomas Beals compared the
soldiers OF 81 with those OF 'es, saying
among other things that he would rather
20 into battle with Maine troops than
with all the regulars in the world. lie
thought that when man fought for his
country with his whole soul he would ac.
oomplish moro than the man who fought
because 1t was his business to fight.
''There is something besides facing bnl.
lets In soldiers life." said Major Beals,
there Is the death In the hospitals, with
sick and dying all around, aud 1t takes
courage to face these things. Those who
died at Chickamauga in the hospitals did
their duty as we'll aud died as much for
their country as did those who fell In the
charge" He closed very eloquently and
was roundly oheered and spplauded when
he finished speaking.

=, - Cro1ked Transactions.
Kansas City. Sept. 27.--Leonard B.
r1inboden. president of the Planters
bank, nj wild cat" concern sup
pressed by the state officials several
months ago, was yesterday found
guilty In the criminal court of forg-
ing draft for $4,000, with which
he hoped to get false credit for his
bank, and was sentenced to ten years
in the penitentiary. Imboden came
here from Texas, where he was par
doned by Governor Hogg after serv-
ing two years for forgery.
Imboden Is one of the remarkable
criminals OF the day. For years he
lived apparently without resources, at
tempting to promote banking, cattle
and real estate deals in Kansas, Texas
and New Mexico Of such magnitude
that they made the ordinary man gasp
with wonder. In every prospectus he
claimed to have prominent Chicago,
st. Louis, Philadelphia and New York
trust companies behind him. The act
which led to an examination Of I'm
boden's bank and his final arrest was
In accepting deposit from wealthy
local cattle man whose confidence he
had gained by letters apparently from
eastern capitalists saying his credit
Was the best.
Imboden was born In Texas. He Is
great granddaughter of General I'm
bodsn, who served under General
Washington during the revolutionary
war, Is a cousin Of General Imboden,
late of the Confederate army, and his
parents, both of whom are now dead,
were looked upon as among the very
first families in the south. His
brother, W. M. Imboden, was formerly
district attorney and Judge at Fort
Worth
