That Historic Meeting.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Much has
been written concerning the surrender of
Gen. Lee and about the Appomattox ap-
pletree; but some unwritten details are
here given to fill up the history n
On April 8, 1865, Co. g, 155th Pa,
Third Brigade, First Division, Fifth
Corps, Gen. @. A. Griffin commanding,
was on picket-duty near McLean's resi-
dence, where Lee and Grant agreed to
terms of Confederate surrender.
J. o. Paup. Second Sergeant Of Co. G,
has a very vivid recollection of the events
outside of the Mclean house. having been
on duty within go feet of the famous ap-
pie tree. He says:
THE Fifth Corps early in the morning
of April 3 had massed southeast of the
Mclean residence. To the west Of the
Court House lay a large number of Con-
fedeiates. Co. G deployed as skirmishers
and got within 200 yards OF the Confed-
crates before firing.
The Confederate skirmish-line began
to advance, and a few shots had been
exchanged, when boy on horseback, car
rying a white kcrchief on stick, came
galloping toward our lines. Firing ceased
instantly. Co. G. was ordered up the road
About 80 y. m. Gen. Grant and his
Aids arrived at the house, Lee having pre-
coded them. Gen. Grant and some of his
staff officers went into the house.
I'm one corner of the house-yard stood
an apple tree, eight or 10 inches in diam
eter, full of blossoms. Some of Grants
officers plucked blossoms for bouquets for
themselves and their horses. Then many
Of the soldiers of the Fifth Corps came
and attacked the tree for mementoes, and
in a short time limbs, trunk and roots We're
gone, so that when | got off duty l could
only find a small clip. l stood so near
that ! saw the entire transaction. By the
time Grant came out of the house the tree
was gone. No wonder he says he saw no
tree"
Serg't Paup now lives near North Gu
camonga, Cal; has Il happy family, though
his second boy was given to his country,
having died in San Sidro Hospital, Phil

working His way Through College.

At Cornell University there is a young
fellow with remarkable grit. To begin
with. he had $40. OF this sum he paid
500 for tuition, and the balance for
books. He found place where he could
get his board for waiting upon the table.
He succeeded in getting a room by tend
ing a furnace in the house. He has gone
right along with his studies, without in
curing debt. The future must hold a
bright place for such young mainland
he is not alone in one college.

disinfected. All beds, clothing, ETC.,
must be disinfected. Another thing
to be done is to instruct all classes
and conditions as to the ready infec-
BUSINESS of consumption The founding
of sanatoria for this great class Of the
affected is now in the foreground he
says. We quote a part of what he
says here:
That tuberculosis is durable in its
early stages must be regarded as an
undisputed fact. The idea of curing as
many t~ubercular patients as possible
in order to reduce the number of those
that reach the infectious stage of con-
sumption. n thus to educe the num-
Der Of fresh cases, was therefore a very
natural one"
We can only detain the reader with
more point. What has been done
as to curing consumption? DR.. Koch
gives statistics from the German Cen
trail Committee. In an established sys-
TEN of sanatcria for consumptives.
The average stay Of the patients was
three months. There were $500 beds,
and in a year 10000 patients. About
20 per cent that have tubercle-bacilli
in their sputum loos them by the treat
ment there" We quote:
This is the only sure test of success,
especially as regards prophylaXis. II
We make this the basis OF our estimates,
We find hat 1000 consumptives Will
leave these establishments annually as
cured. But, according to the statistics
ascertained by the German Imperial
Office of Health. there are 226,OOO per-
1900 - NV nhnx-o Efrann UQa T G OF
age who are so far gone in consumption
tina hospital treatment is necessary for
them"
In Prussia DR.. Cornet reports that
before 1889, the average mortality was
31.4 per 10000. but between 1889 n
1897, inclusive, the rate had fallen to
21.S, (which means that, in that short
space of time, the number of deaths
from tuberculosis was 1S4 900 less than
was to be expected from the average
Of the preceding years. In New York,
under the influence of the general SAN
itary measures directed in a simply ex-
emplary manner by Biggs, h NOR
tality from tuberculosis has diminish
ed by more than So per cent. since 1885,"
DR.. Biggs thinks that deaths in New
York city alone will be 5000 less each
year from consumption than formerly
under the organization that has been
instituted. DIR. Koch believes that un-
der the strictest care in the sanatoria
1T will certainly be possible to cure
fifty per cent. But all other measures
he suggests must be observed strictly.
We hope this article will be instructive
and a comfort to many people. Save
this.

HCH IS TORTURE.

Eczema is caused by an acid humor in
the blood coming in contact with the
skin and producing great redness and in
hammation little pustular eruptions form
and discharge a thin, sticky fluid, which
dries and scales off sometimes the skin is
hard, dry and assured. Eczema IN any
form IS a tormenting, stubborn disease,
and the itching and burning at times are
almost unbearable; the acid burning
hunor seems to ooze' cut and set the skin
On fire. Salves, washes nor other exter-
nal applications do any real good, for as
long as the poison remains in the blood
it will keep the skin irritated.

From a letter written By an officer OF

to the commodore about how n Iowa

other two cruisers as his victim when

CLEANING AND

A Russian has published mis- views
OF China. He thinks hat so far as his
W country is concerned there is no
end to it's troubles so far as China is
involved. The old empress began the
late trouble and it will be continued he
thinks with h immediate
ton of English officers who had worked
out a plan Of campaign against the
Russians. The empress will not be able
to represent the whole matter in a ia
vorable light to the Chinese, and thus
keep alive their hatred of the foreigner
and arouse them to vengeance for the
insults they have been subjected to. 1t
is the English, too, who nave on almost
every occasion been the means of drag
gfng on the long negotiations, and thus
showing to the Chinese the discord ex-
listing among the western powers"
1t is clear that the republican high
protectionists nave no idea of lowering
the present arbitrary, most exorbitant
and robber tariff. They will keep it
going for a century if they can accom-
plish it. The New York Press, extreme
republican high protectionist, has writ
ten to republican members of the con-
gress as to their views as to reciprocity
and 81 on. The Press wants no tariff
reduction whatever for ten years to
come. Representative Payne, who is
to be chairman of the Ways and Means
, committee, writes that "the tariff ques-
ton should not be opened unless for
the most imperative reasons. and only
when the benefits would outweigh the
temporary embarrassments and losses
resulting from it." That is evasive.
Senator Burrows, Of Michigan, wants
the present high sugar tax to continue.
and wants a tax on coffee to be added.
Representative Henry favors a reduc-
ton Of 10 per cent. on sugar, and that
Porto Rico, Hawaii, and the Philippines
should be protected by a ~differential
duty on the coffee imported into the
United States,
