but other regiments got ahead of u.s.
IN completing organization. We
thought the governor hadn't taken
enough interest in the phalanx, and
some of US told him So. Thereupon
the governor, to show his interest in
the regiment, sent Capt. o. l. Mann
to Washington to urge the immediate
acceptance of the phalanx. Finally
the regiment was accepted as the

fought. We left Chicago Oct. IS, 1861

were ordered to Williamsport with the

won a reputation as good marchers

months later we took that flag into.
Fort Wagner on Morris island, South
Carolina, under what might be called

happened that we were in the

sault was ordered. Our outlook dis
covered that the fort was being evacu-
ated, and under the leadership of Col
o. L. Mann we scrambled into the fort
just in time to cut the fuses set to-
blow up the Notifications.
after a scrap with the rebel rear
guard we hoisted the Yates flag on

Main Building Roman Catholic Univer sity

a Lutheran, and since then also has
left the Roman Catholic communion.
The elder has been in bad health for
some years.
Prominent members of the Roman
Catholic clergy in Washington ex-
pressed their surprise at the an
nouncement that the Marquise des
Monsters, formerly Miss M. G. Cald-
well, and the founder of the Catholic
university at Washington had re-
nounced the Catholic faith. In fact,
they were loath to believe she had
formed such determination.
Bishop Spalding, of Peoria, when
asked if he could assign any reason
for the Marquise des Monsters &C
ton, he answered that he could not;
that he knew her only as a good
Roman Catholic, and until the an
nouncement was made had given no
thought otherwise. 1T is all a mys-
terry to me-" he said.
One official of the Roman Catholic
church attributed as a possible cause,
taking the story to be correct, the
notoriety which the university gained
by the failure of Thomas E. Wagga-
man, its treasurer, by which the uni
versity suffered considerable fnan-
cial loss.

described. She returned to New York
the next day
Soon after reaching her majority,
Miss Caldwell, through her guardian,
Bishop Spalding, of Peoria, announced
to the Catholic hierarchy her inten-
ton of endowing the Catholic univer-
sity, and a, council was held to con-
slider her offer.
Such a project long had been con-
sidered, but sufficient funds had never
been provided. Miss Caldwell donat-
ed the Lightweight acres on the edge
of Washington, erected three of the
largest buildings, including Caldwell
hall, which is the largest of the pres
ent group, and provided for the main
tenance of the university fer three
years. Her sister, the Baroness Won
Zeedwitz, gave Caldwell chapel to
the university.
For this service Pope Leo XIII.
bestowed upon Gwendolin Caldwell a
diamond-studded medal, which he had
struck especially for her, and also
conferred the decoration of the Order
of the Rose, which distinction no
other woman ever has held.
The young heiress went to Italy in
1887, and there met Prince Murat,
who was thirty-three years the senior
of Miss Caldwell, and deeply in debt.
He was the grandson of Murat, king
of Naples, and of Caroline, sister of
Napoleon 1.
After their engagement was an
nounced preparations for a regal we'd
ding were made, a trousseau fit for a
Queen secured, and the day for the
ceremony set.
The day before the marriage the
prince and his legal representative
and Miss Caldwell and her attorneys
met to arrange the antenuptia1 con-
tract The prince insisted upon the
control of the fortune. Miss Caldwell
refused this. Then he offered to take
half of it. This the American SRI
refused, saying that she had intended
settling S25, 900 a year upon her hus-
band. The prince wanted more. Miss
Caldwell at once broke the engage
ment and returned to America.
Miss Caldwell, in 1892, announced
her engagement to the Marquis de
Monstiers-Me 1t was said to
be a love match. She was married
on October 10 of that year, the cere-
mony being performed by Bishop
Spalding After her marriage the
marQuise went to Paris to live and
her entertainments were notable
there. She spent much of her time in
charitable iabors. Her health began
to fail two years ago. Since then she
has led the life of a recluse.

Bronze Star BADGE.


It may be interesting to note that
the Grand Army is indebted to John a.
Logan ("Black Jack" as he was low
ingH called by the men who ser we'd
under him) for two things inseparably
connected with the order. He gave it
its hallowed Memorial day, that day
sacred to tender memories, fragrant
flowers and the renewing of "Oid
Glory above the graves of countless
thousands of brave men who sleeD
their dreamless sleep on hundreds cf
well-fought battlefelds, or amid tie
peacefulness of quiet cemeteries
throughout this broad land
He gave it also the bronze STAR
for a badge, for it was during his adj
ministration as cOmmander-in-chief
that it was adopted. 1t is a badge
which costs but little in money. but
which a million of dollars cannot buy
the right to wear, the badge which
10000 men will wear through Boston's
streets on Tuesday, the badge that
nearly one million of comrades have
worn in the past, but the badge that
scarcely 100 veterans will be living to
wear thirty years hence

The Marquise des Monsters Mer-
inville, formerly Miss M. G. Caldwell,
who, it will be remembered, founded
the Roman Catholic university at
Washington some years ago, has re-
pudiated her former creed and left
the Roman Catholic church.
1t will be remembered that the mar
Quise des Monsters Merinville and
her sister, the Baroness Won Zeed-
witt, are the daughters of the late
William S. Caldwell and his wife, who
was a Breckenridge of Kentucky.
Shortly before his death Mr.. Caldwell

6urfeo o-day.
Buried to-day,
When the soft green buds are bursting
out,
And up ON the south wind comes a shout
OF village boys and girls at play
In the mild spring evening gray.
Taken away,
Sturdy of heart and stout of limb,
From eyes that drew half their light from
him,
And put low, low beneath the clay,
In his spring-on this spring day.
Passes away,
All the pride of boy-life begun.
All the hope of life yet to run:
Who dares to question when one saith
Nay,
Murmur not-only pray.
Enters to-day
Another body in churchyard sod,
Another soul on the life in God
His Christ was buried-and lives Away;
Trust Him, and go your way.
