Johnston's Lonely Grave.

''It is a lonely little grave in lone
ly Texan cemetery a few miles out
of Austin," said J. Il. Caven at the
Vendome, ''and a single modest tulip
is the onlydccoration upon the mound
And at it's head is plain marble cross
with a modest legend which the aver
age passerby overlooks. And yet, un-
cler that little mound lie the remains
Of one Of the greatest military gen.
fuses ever produced in America. 1t
is the grave of the great confederate
general, Albert Sidney Johnston, says
the Sioux City Qowa) Journal.
Robert e. Lee, Albert Sidney john
ston and Thomas (StonewalD jackson
were the great leaders whose martial
deeds in the civil war will ever be
memorable. Johnston was the great
est figure of the confederacy at the
time Of his death. At that time Lee
had subordinate command in the
mountains of West Virginia and Jack
son had not made the great stand on
the peninsula which gave him his
sobriquet. Johnston was killed late
in the first days fight on Shiloh, when
he had routed Grant and it seemed
as if the union forces would be prac-
tically annihiated. His death caused
the command to fall upon Beauregard,
who failed to follow up the advantage
and the arrival of Buell. during the
night with 10000 fresh troops enabled
Grant to turn the tide the following
day and Shiloh went down in history
as union victory.
Sidney Johnston had an eventful
career, cut short when at his fullest
vigor, and few people realize the re-
suits brought about by the fateful
shot in the leg at Shiloh. Johnston
had attained national prominence by
leading the troops against Brigham
Young in the Mormon campaign and
his conduct Of this expedition gave
promise Of the military genius which
he afterward manifested. To his
death is assigned the comparatively
easy success of Grant in his cam
paigns in Tennessee and Mississippi
and it rendered possible Sherman's
famous march to the sea. For, among
all the confederate commanders who
were tried after Johnston in this ter
ritory, none was able to hold his own.
"Had Johnston lived. Grant would
have been checked at Shiloh and
might never have attained the prom

England's Peace Talk.

1t will be we'll not to lose sight of
the English members of Parliament
who have crossed the Atlantic to at
tend the Peace Conference They are
here ostensibly i'll the interest of uni
versal peace. In reality their mission
is to work for an arbitratio treaty
which would be equivalent to an alli-
once between this country and Eng
land. They expect to utilize to it's
utmost any peace sentiment that may
he born Of the coming conference
They realize that it would not be
polite to proclaim openly the motive
that actuates them in suddenly be-
coming stout champions Of peace so
shortly after their own country had
waged war upon the two South Afri-
cans and Thibet. While their native
land was profiting by war they had
nothing to say about it's horrors. 1t is
only when England is to be benefited
by working a peace sentiment OH this
side of the Atlantic that they find
voice to denounce the savage methods
by which the British empire has been
built up.
One of them. Mr.. Creamer, ad-
dressed last Sunday the Sunday
school class of Rockefeller, Jr. In
the course Of his remarks Mr.. Crea-
mer said that King Edward VII.
would be only too happy to send a
representative to peace conference
held in the United States This state
ment was entirely unnecessary 1t is
well known that the rulers of the
country that has waged more wars
than all the rest of Europe combined
are only too willing to assist any
movement which they think will pave
the way for treaty that in it's turn
will bring about a virtual alliance be-
tween the two countries. England
has set her heart upon this. This
explains why she, the most persistent
and most shameless violator of peace,
Is ready to pose as an advocate Of the
abolition Of war. She is not deferred
by the consciousness of the hypocrisy
she is guilty Of in SO doing. The
world knows that she would tomorrow
unsheath the sword if there was any
plunder within sight which she could
safely gather unto herself. Indeed, it
is her love of plunder which prompts
her to assume just now the role of a
peace lover. She is convinced that it
would be master stroke on her part
If she could induce the United States
Government to ratify an arbitration
treaty for the alleged purpose of pro-
noting the cause Of peace.
Such treaty, which would be con-
strued as quasi alliance between
the two countries, would greatly
strengthen the robber nation of the
world. Her freebooting enterprises in
Asia, Africa and elsewhere would be
attended with less danger, as the
opinion would prevail that the secret
understanding between her and the
United States as represented by an
arbitration treaty would make it risky
for any European power to seek to
place restraints upon her predatory
inclinations.
This explains the sudden interest
England takes in the cause of uniyer-

JURY DISAGREED.
No Verdict After Six Hours Consideration
Of Case Of PaoIIne vs.. J. W. Bishop Co.

After being out about six hours last
night the Jury in the case In which Arcan-
gelo Paolino citizen OF Italy was sueing
J. w. Bishop company in the United
States. returned and announced that It
was unable TO agree upon verdict.
This case Is one in which the plaintiff
formerly a laborer in the employment
OF the defendent company was engaged
with a number Of other laborers in plac-
ing heavy timber upon brick pier un-
der the direction OF forman. 1t appears
that the timber slipped and fell upon
Paolino's leg crushing II so badly that he
was obliged TO have IL amputated between
the ankle and knee and he accordingly
brought suit against the company which
had the contract to build the Social
Manufacturing Co.'S, mill at Woonsocket,
alleging negligence.
The case was heard in the Supreme
court and a jury awarded the man $500
which verdict was later overturned by the
Appellate Division as not in accordance
with the evidence as the risk of the un-
dertaking was obvious.
On account OF Paolino's foreign citizen
ship Attorney Healey was able TO bring
the matter into the United States court
with the result Of a disagreement OF the
jury.

PR PER WAY TO BREATHE,
Simple Exercises by Which the Lung

Tor resisting the onslaughts of disease
But II is not enough to tell people to
breathe; many, with the best will in
the world, do not know how to breathe,
says Youths Companion. It is not
enough to sit in a chair and take a deep
breath from time to time; nor can any,
one always be taking full inspirations,
Tor mat requires thought and special
eHort. We must breathe in the ordi-
nary way most of the time, and supple
ment this by certain special exercises
at given periods.
Any form of exercise properly taken
calls for Increased respiratory effort,
and so may be called a breathing exer-
else; and this applies particularly to
rapid walking. which is the best all
round exercise that it is given to man
TO indulge in. But we can augment the
utility of rapid walking (by which is
meant gait of from three to four miles
an hour) by combining with it a spe-
cial breathing exercise.
Many persons, walking in the city.
make it rule to fill the lungs as full as
they will hold of air each time they
