GEN. r, WHEATON. ~. The General
fighting record was one greatly to his
credit. He took to the field against the
CHEYENNE Indians in 1857 and his
opening fight was near Fort hearny'
Neb,, where he acquitted himself most
calamity. He took part In the Ctah
expedition and, on the breaking out OF
the rebellion, proceeded to his naive
State and was made lieutenant colonel
NJ the Second Rhode Island Volun-
teers: a month later he was made
colonel. and had his troops In Viz
ginia early in May, so that they TOOK
part in the opening engagement OF the
war at Bull Run. Thereafter the com
msnd was with the Army of the Pote-
mac in all it's desperate engagements.
In 1852 the commander was made
briRadier general and directed a divi-
sion of the Sixth Corps at Gettysburg
and in the campaign in the Schenan-
doah Valley in 1854, and was actively
engaged in the maneuvers preceding
the surrender of Lee in 1865 at Apo
mattox. For gallantry at the battles
Of Opeguan, Fishers Hill and Middle
town, Va, he was made major general
and further honors came to him for
bravery in the battles Of the Wilder
ness, Cedar Wreck and Petersburg. For
his chivalric conduct in these engage
ments the State of Rhode Island pre-
scented him with a sword in 1856.

WORLDS LARGEST SINGLE SPAN STONE ARCH.

harly In the eighteenth century a
pilgrim appeared in what is now
known as Montgomery County, Mary
land. He built for himself a hut ON
the margin of creek which ennpties
into the Potomac river, seven milest
above Georgetown. The Revolution
came and went; the tall, 1.-the figure
OF the hermit became bowed with
years, and his shaggy dark locks turn
ca gray. During these years he had
been a hunter and fisher, his only
clothing the skins Of beasts, and two
hunting dogs his only companions. He
sought no intercourse with the few
human beings who, stray ing from tine
much-traveled river road" occasion
ally drifted into his lonely glen; but,
to the kindly disposed and the curious,
his manners were ever those of O
gentleman. He had a strong, beauti-
full voice, In which he sang sweet but
sad verses of his own composition, ac-
companying himself on a banjo, or
mandolin, constructed of rude mate
rails by his own hands. Toward the
close Of the last century he disappear

The hermit had been known on the
Potomac as John Of the Cabin" and

tiny home IL still called cabin John

flows Is now spanned by a bridge
which for over forty years has figured
in our national history, and bears the
added distinction Of being the longest

Work of Jefferson Davis.
Early in Pierce'S administration JEFF
ferSon Davis, then Secretary Of War,
directed Capt. Montgomery G. Meigs,
United States Corps of Engineers, to
span the ravine and the creek with a
conduit bridge, to convey to the rapid
ly growing city of Washington it's wat
or supply, from the reservoir at Great
Falls, sixteen miles above the city.
In November, 1852, Capt. Meigs had
begun the work of designing and con,

together with the duties of superin,

Places in New England that Abound
in Interest.
If the most sacred buildings In Bos-
ton and Philadelphia are properly
rivals in claiming the title of the Ora
die of Liberty than here in the Cham
plain Valley of Vermont is surely the
scene of its birth, comments a writer
in Harper's Magazine. From this eyre
Rochester Mountain one may see the
great Lake that is the gate to the
country" as the Indians named Lake
Champlain; one may see the Otter up
which the paint-smeared savages crept
to make their murderous attacks deep
in Connecticut and Massachusetts; one
may scan where TicOnderoga lies In
shameful abandonment, the spot where
Champlain fought the red men Of 293
years ago, where the French built their
most important fort in the chain that
ran from Montreal to New Orleans;
where Amherst took it from them;
where our dashing friend and leader,
young Lord Howe, fell and was Sc
cretly buried.

the minds eye to see the path that
Ethan Allen and his band took to gain,
at this fortress, our first great victory
in the revolutionary war. From where
the church spires marked the seats Of
Rutland, Pittsford, Brandon, Whiting,
Castleton and Middlebury, one fancied
he might almost see again the tall
rugged mountain boys" stalking the
trails to the rendezvous with Allen at
SIMULTANEOUSLY noted now as the
birthplace of Levi p. Morton.
All of these villages are prosperous
and beautiful places to-day-the sum-
mer resorts of well-to-do folks from q
score of distant cities. Even the edge
of the rich valley, where the lake wa
ters lap the Vermont shore, now
shows the beginning of a movement to
stud the lakeside and the islands in the
lake with fine summer hotels and pala-
tial mansions set in great estates.

The foregoing statement was made
by the superintendent in an inter-
view denying published report.which
quoted him as saying:

than at any time since The murder. "
Former District Attorney Thomas
Penney said today:
mot dollar of Mr.. Pennell's life

Mr.. Penney made this statement
in view of the publication of a re-
port that only $25, 900 of the enor-
nous insurance carried by Mr.. Pen
nell was made payable to his estate.
The circumstances have given rise to
surmises that Mrs. Burdick might be
the chief beneficiary.
The general manager Of a New

the statement of Mr.. Pennoll. "Mr
Pencil has $50 600 life insurance in
