on to say that owing to this kind ac-

A New German Punishment.

The young Germans who emigrate
to America and elsewhere without do
ing their fair share of military service
have long been thorn in the side Of
officialdom. A method of dealing with
this state of things has at last been
hit upon which bids fair to work sue
cessfully. One Friedrich Grobbler, a
runaway, settled in Kansas, has been
Informed by the German military au-
thorities by cable that he must re-
port at home for duty, and notifying
him that unless he returns and serves
him time his father will be fined a
sum equivalent to 200 pounds. If this
procedure is followed out in every
case German fathers are likely to be-
tray more affectionate interest in
keeping their sons at home.

GEN. JAMES ID. BR ADY

A widely known and highly respected
Virginian, Gen. James D. Brady, died
at his home in Petersburg, on the LIST
inst. Though born in Portsmouth,
Va, April 8, 1S43, deceased was in bust
ness In New York city at the opening
OF the civil war. He espoused the
federal side, enlisted in the Thirty
seventh New York volunteers as
private, and was made adjutant. Soon
after he was promoted to the colonelcy
of the Sixtythird regiment, of the
Irish brigade, commanded by Colonel
Thomas Francis Meagher. While lead
ing the regiment in it's charges upon
Mary's Hights at Fredericksburg, he
was shot twice. He recovered from
his wounds in time to serve as an
inspector general on Gen. Samuel
looks staff at Gettysburg, and was
by his side when he was killed in the
peach orchard. In the Wilderness the
general was shot again, but was able
to resume active duty at Cold Harbor,
where he was shot through the abdo-
men, the ball passing through his
body. The surgeons thought he had
no chance to live, but to their surprise
he recovered after six months illness
and served until the end of the war.
His courage, fortitude and strength
were the marvel of his associates. He
was cheerful amid suffering and his
genial qualities, always in evidence
did not desert him when he was racked
with pain or when the surgeons knife
was repairing the ravages Of the bull
let.

Stories about misers are sometimes
exaggerated, but it has been verified
that a beggarwoman. named Marie
Leret, who has died at Versailles, left
behind her in gold and bonds about
$4,000. The money was found in an
old cupboard in the hovel wherein the
deceased had lived for over half cen
tury. Marie Leret was eighty-three
years old, and was one of the most
successful mendicants of the day. She
begged persistently at church doors,
in the streets, at the railway stations,
and received, moreover, substantial
gifts from charitably-disposed per-
sons, who had no idea that they were
assisting a miser OF the sum found,
nearly $4,000 in gold fell out of a
long stocking, the remainder being In
various securities, of which the divi-
dend warrants had not been utilized
for eighteen years.

Cost OF growing the latt-r. This would
prove even more obvious if modern
methods of growing cane were adopt-
ed. Hence Sir William is in favor of
continuing to raise vegetable indigo
and trying to lessen the cost in the
manner here indicated. An address
on this same subject was recently de-
llvered at the meeting of the German
Chemical society in Berlin. DR.
Brunck, managing director of the cor
poration which manufactures chemical
indigo, deemed still more radical
change in the practice of Indian plant
ers advisable. He believes that II
would be better for them to give up
growing indigo altogether, and to raise
food stuffs instead. The frequency of
famlnes in that part of the world gives
additional point to his advice. In the
meantime the government of India is

INDIGO PLANTERS.
Germany's Chemical Product InjurinI

Germanys Chemical Product Iniuring
Trade In Natural Cultivation.
The vegetable indigo industry is
largely concentrated IN The province of
Bengal, the most densely populated
district of one of the most crowded
countries in the world. The business
of making indigo by purely chemical
methods is carried on in Germany, and
is triumph of Teutonlc scholarship
and enterprise. The produce of the
factory at Ludwigshafen is equivalent
to the crops on 250,000 acres in India,
and the output is steadily growing
For long time the Germans had diff
Guilty in making purchases Oh dye stuffs
to understand that the article which
they made was not an imitation or a
substitute, but was the same thing as
the vegetable indigo. The two came
from different sources, but were identi-
cal in nature and properties. The
world now recognizes this fact, and
the cost of production has come down
so that the indigo planters of Asia are
in panic. Two plans for the relief of
the Bengal agriculturalists have been
suggested. Sir William Hudson, presi-
dent of the organization, has called
the attention Of the government to the
fact that in the early part of the CEN
tury sugar was cultivated in India in
alienation with indigo, and that such
rotation Of crops would reduce the

end his usefulness. He was the sub

to Turchin. with his years in the Eu-
ropean campaigns, war was war from
the day hostilties began. To many
civilians, and even to regular army
officers who obtained high command
in the United States army, war was
something that had to be learned.
strange disinclnation to hurt some
body impressed itself in military poll
cy Turchin couldn't understand it.
In Missouri General Pope had said to
him:
You must starve in your tracks
rather than take anything from civil
ans.
Isn't it a state of war?' the Rus
sian asked.
Had there been a full complement
of Turchns holding command in the
union army the civil war would not
have lasted half as long or cost half
as much in blood or treasure.
The Russian restrained himself as
much as he could. but he was unable
to wage war as mildly as his super
iors wished. At length the issue came
in a court-martal. One of Turchin's
regiments was attacked and driven
out of an Alabama city. The general,
with the other regiments, went to the
rescue. The town was retaken, some
stores were broken open. Upon this
was based the charges. The court
martial was of Turchin as colonel of
the nineteenth Illinois. Before the
unfavorable findings could take effect

brigadier general for his admirable
president of the court-martial.

Without political influence, solely
upon his merits, the Russian made
himself power in the later campaign
ing He was with Thomas at Chicka-
mauga and his brigade was part of
the front which held like rock
through the second day, saving what
was left of the union army from
crushing defeat. He marched with
Sherman to the sea, and when that
campaign closed resigned and went
back to civil life. Twenty years ago
he went to Poland and brought over
colony of Kosciusko's people whom
he established in the fertile areas of
southern Illinois, in a village called
Radon. Here he has lived ever since
at times within the very grasp of
poverty.
