The Indianapolis journal., 1903-04-05

To the Editor OF the Indianapolis Journal:
The correction of the list of Napoleon's
marshals by your correspondent in last
Sundays Journal is right so far as it goes.
but there are several names not included in
the Journals former list nor in the cor
rected list of Sunday which ought to be
mentioned. There were Kellerman, Van
damme, Junot, st. Cyr and Bertrand, TO
say nothing of Kleber, Dessaix and Moreau.
The last three were field marshals of
France before the rise of Napoleon, but
they all fought under his eagles in the early
part of his career. Dessaix was killed by
a musket ball in the breast at Marengo
after he had brought up his division and
made it possible for Napoleon to gain the
battle Hearing of his death, Napoleon
said: why is it not permitted me to
weep?" Kleber was left in charge in Egypt
when Napoleon returned to France, and
was stabbed by an assassin at Cairo the
very day of the battle of Marengo. Moreau
was a French soldier of high reputation
and marshal, and fought the great battle
of Hohenlinden, near Munich, in Decem-
ber. 1900 He was afterwards charged with
being implicated in the conspiracy of
Pichegru and Cadoudal to murder Ma
poleon and was banished to America. He
returned to Europe in 1913. fought with the
Russians in Saxony and was killed at Dres-
den Aug. q, 1Sl3 by a shot from a cannon,
ii was said, directed by Napoleon. He
cursed Napoleon with his dying breath.
Kellerman fought at Marengo and through
the other campaigns, and commanded the
Fourth Cavalry Corps at Waterloo Count
dErlon commanded the French center at
Waterloo He was made marshal two
years before. The day after Napoleon's
coronation Emperor. in 1904. he named
eighteen grand marshals of the empire.
The lists differ somewhat in different BIZ
ographies, but the following is correct:
Davoust, Soult, Lannes, Ney, Poniatowski,
Massena, Bernadotte, Mortier, Berthier,
Bessieres, Mcdonald, Vandamme, Au-
gereau, Grouchy, Kellerman, Murat, ST. Cyr
and Oudinot. Bertrand, Rapp, Marmont,
st. Hiliare, d'Erlon. Reille and others were
given the baton afterwards. j. T. E.

THE PLEBEIAN POTATO.
1t Is the Source Of Wonderful Wealth
to German Growers.

1t Is the Source Of Wonderful Wealth
to German Growers.
Chicago Journal.
Frank H. Mason, the American consul
general at Berlin, has made a full and in
teresting report to the State Department
upon THE Potato as a Source of Wealth
in Germany" He shows the immense in
crease in the growing of this vegetable
within the last few years and it's various
uses as human food, feed for domestic ami
mails and its alcoholic and starch producing
qualities. In 1901 something over II per
cent. of the arabic land of the German en-
pire was planted in potatoes. and the crop
was valued at S95,OO0,O0O.
The potato has had an eventful history
since it was discovered by the Spaniards
in the beginning of the sixteenth century
and carried by them from Peru to Spain.
Like its cousin, the tomato. it was at first
regarded with great suspicion and was cul-
tivated as a curiosity and not as an article
of food. Sir John Hawkins, Sir Francis
Drake and Sir Walter Raleigh all carried it
to England and it was the latter who first
planted it on his Munster estates in Ire
land, where 1t socn took root and flourished.
There 1t soon became the principal article
of food for the peasantry, so easily was it
ton. From Ireland it was carried to other
parts of Europe and early acquired the
name of the Irish potato" by which it is
still known, even in this country, from
which ii was first taken.
1t was France that first taught the world
how to cook the potato in more than one
way, and it was Frederick the Great who
introduced it into Prussia, where it has
fiourished, as Mr.. Mason's report shows,
only little less than in Ireland.
AS a food the potato has long ranked
next to wheat as necessity of the table,
though it contains but a sixth of wheat's
nutritive qualities. But it has also had its
periods of banishment. In France ii was
long supposed to be the cause of leprosy
and fevers, and il was forbidden to those
suffering from gout, rheumatism and dia-
betes. Lately. however, Professor Mosse,
of Toulouse, has come out strongly in IA
vor of the potato as an article of diet. He
declares that it is no. only harmless. but
that ii is beneficial in kidney diseases on
account of the water and organic salts con-
tanned in it, forming an alkali which nour-
ishes the person while curing the disease.
The value of the potato, however, consists
not alone in its food qualities. From it
starch, dextrine, sugar and alcohol are de-
rived in commercial quantities, particularly
starch and alcohol. Its importance as
crop for farmers, therefore, can hardly be
overestimated.

because of i'll health. Admitted to the bar
in Philadelphia in 1889. he engaged in liter
ary work about 1891.
Where would one look for a market for
willow charcoal?-Mrs X.
Makers of gunpowder would be likely
purchasers, as they prefer a charcoal made
from nonresinous wood, like willow or
poplar.
Please give the present estimated popu-
lation of the world.-A. j. G..
An estimate made in 1891 by Drs. Wag-
ner and Supan, editors of "Bevolkerung der
Erde." makes the total population of the
earth 1,479.729.4O 400. These are the latest
figures obtainable.

however, put in an appearance, and Copass
twitching fingers were given no relief in
the pulling of trigger.
The thieves did not return, and the po-
