LONDON GONE MAD.
The Whole City Gives Itself
Up to "Mafficking."
All Classes Enter Into the Celebration
Of Peace Declaration.
Universal Testimonial to kinq Ed.
wards Share in Securing It.

London, June 1.-THE peace in South
Africa, and its very elastic terms were
welcomed in London, tonight, with a
mild REPETITION of the Mafeking cele-
bration- Hundreds of thousands of
people surged through the streets of
London from White chapel to Buck
ingham palace, but never at any time
did the density of the crowds equal
that of those which created Inc verb
ito maffick."
Tonight there was tremendous
noise in the streets, composed of a
pandemonium of horns and cheers and
the coarse jests of costers, but the
abandon which marked the announce
ment of the reliefs of Mafeking and
Ladysmith was lacking. Women,
many of them carrying babies, boys,
drunken loafers and others, glad OF
any excuse to defy law and order, were
the principal element in the ragged
professions which wendell through the
city, through Pail Mall and up Picca-
Oily.
The crowds concentrated in Regent
street and especially on the Strand,
and let themselves loose. Women OF
the lower classes jabbed men in the
faces with feathers, Unfortunately
flung an apology for confetti and in
turn were Rugged and kissed by any
man who found time for such a d.
version. A few helpless policemen
stood around and watched the fun.
One of the favorite decorations with
the crowd was a cluster of red, white
and blue stripes wound around tai
hat.
American visitors in London, who.
tonight, saw the city crazy for the
first time. freely expressed their utter
establishment at the scenes and asked:
Were the Mafekng celebrations
worse than this?"
This question called for a response
from the Americans resident in Lon
don as follows:
.'Why this is not circumstance to
Mafeking."
A very serious undercurrent Of dis
content is probably responsible for the
fact that London has not been entirely

Veterans stiIi in Service.

There are now twenty-five generals
of the line of all three grades aIid
eleven staff generals in the perman tent
military establishment. OF the twenty
two line generals seventeen served at
some period in the civil war, and sew
eral of them, as has been shown,
almost from the beginning.
Five only, all brigadiers, have no
civil war record. They are Wood.
Grant, Bell, Funston and Carter, ell
too young for service in 1906.
OF the eleven staff generals eight
served in some capacity in the civil
war, either in the regular or volunteer
service. The three who did not are
Bates, paymaster general; Crozier,
chief of ordnance and Ainsworth of
the Record and Pension office.
Fifty-three out of fifty-nine colonies
of the line were soldiers of the civil
war. Three of the cavalry colonies
and one of the artillery were not, but
every one of the infantry colonies
dates back to the days of 1861-65. In
the cavalry and artillery there is one
vacancy each.
Out of the sixty-one lieutenant
colonies of the line twenty-four are
civil war veterans, but fraction over
one-third. Very few majors of the line
saw service in 1876
The ratio of civil war veterans to
the whole is about the same in the
staff department. Twenty-six out OF
thirty-six colonies, twenty out of sixty
one Observation-Disclosures and a dozen out
of total of 161 majors of staff have
records running back to the civil war.

Anecdote of Cen. sioeJ,

A New York newspaper writer, who
was an intimate friend of Gen. Franz
Sigel, lately deceased, tells an anec-
dote which illustrates that little war
rior's pugnacity and daring, says the
Washington Post
Broadway knew Sigel fairly well"
says this scribe, land Park Row knew
him better Many a newspaper man
has stood for hours leaning against the
soiled rail of the very much soiled bar
at the saloon near the bridge while
Sigel slipped his beer and told his
stories. So fraii was he that the
stronger men in the party would form
a sort of Gordon about him, that the
rough workingmen, constantly crowd
ing into the place would not knock the
tiny old soldier off his feet. They did
not know him, and would not have
cared, anyway, perhaps. What was a
hero of the German revolution and a
general of the civil war, that he should
stand in the way of thirsty artisan
III search of his beer?
But the martial spirit was in Sige1
to the very last, 1 fancy. 1t was there
three years ago certainly. l had met
the general walking slowly up Broad
way about dinner time, and suggested
dining at a certain well known Ger
man restaurant on Forty-second street,
near Broadway. He was agreeable.
During the meal he told few-just a
few-war "reminiscences, in that de-
ightful dialect which lent to them a
keen zest because you must need hear
every word to understand the nara
tive. I CHANGED to recall that a re-
viva1 of Shenandoah was being given
at the American theater, two blocks
away.
''Why not go?" 1 asked.
YES he exclaimed, with enthusi-
Rsm, we will CO.
Had Bronson Howard been present
to have seen the laughter and tears,
the anger, the joy of that little Ger
man soldier as the story of love and
war was unfolded it might have in
spired him to another drama equally
worthy.
"As we were leaving the theater, the
little general, bubbling over with en-
thusiasm, a big, raw-boned man, half
intoxicated, said:
All that rot about Phil Sheridani
He was poltroon! A coward!'
'.Sigel heard him and sprang imme-
diately forward. Shaking his fists in
the big mans face, he shouted:
'Dumkopf! Schaafskopf! Komm
heraus. Ich schlag dir den kopf abb
But the big man did not accept the
invitation! The fighting terrier of
seventy-four years had cowed the St
Bernard!
Il rather guess that was Franz Sigel

spy's Valuable Services.


Miss Major Pauline Cushman was
one of the best known federal scouts
and spies and rendered most excellent
an actress at the beginning of HOSTILE
ties, and while playing at Louisville
she was arrested by the federal
authorities because it was believed
that she was in the employ Of the
south. This little woman vehemently
denied, and to prove her loyalty
took an appointment in the secret
service. After short trial in work
which required discretion and tact she
was assigned to Gen. Rosecrans.
Time and time again she visited the
lar with the roads in Southern states.
Miss Major Cushman was made a
prisoner twice, but managed to es-
cape without telling any of the secrets
intrusted to her by the federal gov
eminent. Just after Nashville was
taken she was captured while max
ing trip near that city. Again she
managed to escape, only to be recap
tured the following morning They
searched her this time and found in
her garters papers which proved con-
clusively that she was a spy.
Arrangements were being made to
hang her when the Union forces
marched into the town and took DOS
session. In the war department there
are number of papers touching the
