A Great Soldiers Home.

The home for disabled volunteer SOL
diers at Johnson City, Tenn, which is
now being built, will when completed,
be one of the most notable group of
buildings in that state. Aside from its
architectural value the home will be
remarkable because OF the broad and
liberal plan on which it will be con-
Quoted. There are homes and soldiers
retreats in all parts of the United
States, but they are all exclusively
either for Union or Confederate veter
ans. This one will be, according to
the plans which have been adopted. "a
shelter for $500 men who volunteered
in the Union or the Confederate serv-
ice in the civil war and in the war with
Spain" The contract for erecting the
buildings and laying out the grounds
was awarded after a competition in
which six architects took part, to J. H.
Freedlander, whose scheme comprises
thirty-five buildings. Congress appro-
priated 81 900 900 toward the project,
and the home is to be completed in
three years. The site comprises tract
of land a mile and three-quarters long
and three-quarters of a mile wide, sit
uated in the heart of the Tennessee
mountains. The place is so delight
fully situated that it is believed it will
eventually become popular health re-
sort. Among the larger buildings of
the group will be a memorial hall, mess
hall and chapel, and a canteen similar
to those which were maintained at
army posts many years ago will be one
of the features. The grounds will be
laid out in parks, groves and driveways
and the landscape features will add to
the picturesque appearance of the
home. Gen. John T. Richards of Maine
has been appointed superintendent of
construction. The plan includes a large
parade ground and a group of twelve
barrack buildings. These buildings will
be in a semi-ellipse and within easy
walking distance of the mess hall.
Each barrack building will have it's
own park, and everything about the
place will be so arranged that the in
mates may spend their days in perfect
comfort amid surroundings that are
naturally beautiful.-St. Louis Globe

The clocks were on the stroke o
twelve,
The moon was bright and high,
A footstep broke the frozen crust.
shadow passed me by.
i saw veteran lame and old,
Whose march was almost done;
The ba9ered knapsack on his back
Was empty. like his gun
The silver chimes began to ring,
l heard a bugle blow;
A dashing soldier, young and fair,
Came riding DER the snow
The frost was on his cloak of blue,
And on his yellow plume,
And on his sword he bore a rose
red, red rose-in bloom
He halted where the aged man
Had fallen to the SHOWS,
And icy winds had made for hirn
bed of white repose.
He set the bugie to mis- lips,
The notes of taps" he blew,
And then l knew that l beheld
The old year and the new.

From the top of Lookout Mountain
in Tennessee you can see into several
states. 1t was here that the famous
battle above the clouds" was fought.
A portion of the crest is reserved by
the government for a park, and as the
climate is ideal a great many North
erners live here during a portion of the
year
1t was Gen. Hooker who charged the
Notifications of Lookout Mountain
With desperate determination the
Union forces carried the heights, driv-
ing the enemy before them. The next
morning Hooker advanced on the
south while Sherman was engaged on
the northern flank. Grant, from his
position, saw the effect Of Sherman's
assaults. The Confederate line in front
of him was being weakened and with
bold movement launched Thomas
corps on it's center. The orders were
to take the rifle pits at the foot of the
hill then halt and reform; but in the
excitement of success officers and men
pushed forward and swept up the as
cent. Grant caught the inspiration,
and the entire forces were ordered in
one grand charge. Up they went, over
rocks and chasms, all lines broken in
the eagerness to reach the summit
Without firing shot, and needless of
the tempest hurled upon them, they
gained the crest, captured the guns and
turned them on the retreating foe.
That night the Union camp fires, glist-
eping along the nights above Chatta-
nooga, proclaimed the success of this,
the most brilliant of Grant achieve
ments. and the most picturesque of
the battles OF the war.

Judge ma. - Good Voice.

as the stentor of all Missouri is now
Judge of the Fourth District Court of
st. Louis. His voice, which is des-
cribed by an enthusiastic local paper
as weird, wonderful, witching, pow
erful as the basso profundo, penetrat-
ing as GabriePs silver trumpet, and
sweet as an Aeolian harp won him
the position of reading clerk in the
Missouri State Assembly, and in many
city and state Democratic conventions.
He was also one of the reading clerks
in the Democratic national convention
at Chicago in 1896.

Survivor of the odd Guard.

The sole surviving officer of the Old
Guard of the first Napoleon is said to
be living in Warsaw in poverty. He is
a Pole named Markiewicz, and is now
107 years old. He receives a small
pension from the Russian government.
but it is contended that as he has the
military cross of the Legion of Honor
he is entitled to an allowance from the
third republic. Markiewicz was deco
rated for distinguished conduct on the
battlefield IS years since, when he was
only a lad of 10. The decree is dated
Nov. 23, 1913. Markiewicz is thus not
only the sole survivor of the officers
of the Old Guard, but he is doyen, or
senior, member of the Legion of Hon
or. He has, however, been enabled to
live in three centuries. and, according
to all accounts. is still alert, in spite
of age and poverty
