RELICS OF
WARS OF THE
REPUBLIC
The Army and Navy Museum On
Governors Island a Repository
Of Trophies Won By Soldiers
and Saiiors-Valuable
Manuscripts

There is one museum in New York
filed with historical treasures closely
identified with the early history Of
the city and the Nation that very few
persons, compared with the number
that might derive pleasure and profit
from it, know anything about. That
is the museum belonging to the Mill
tary Service Institution of the Uni
ted States in Governors Island, says
the Washington Post.
Men whose names stand high on
the roll of honor in the army and
navy have contributed to it. One eS-
hibit after another has been sent by
brave men fighting for Uncle Sam at
the uttermost ends OF the earth
Some Of the treasures are not dupl-
Gated anywhere else in the country
They are worth long journey to
see for men interested in military
history. Not war, nor an important
battle, from earliest Colonial times
to the recent conflicts with the boo
men in the Philippines that is not
represented by battle flags or tro-
phies.
There can Sherdan's famous
horse, Winchester, the hero of story
and song in the school books, be seen
with all his brave generals accou-
urements on his back.
With foam and with dust the black
charger was gray;
BY the fash of his eyes and the red
nostrils' play
He seemed to the whole great army
to say:
From Winchester down to save the
day"
A skilful demonstrator has mount
ed Winchester for the Governor
Island Museum, just as he looked
rushing into action at the memorable
ride. After the horse died in Chi
cago in 1878, General Sheridan was
inundated with requests for his hide
for exhibition purposes. Those not
of a strictly patriotic nature recev'
ed no attention. But there was
number of requests from Grand Ar
my posts and military societies that
the general felt bound to consider.
Most pressing of all, perhaps, was
the claim of West Point. Finally,
through the efforts OF Brig. Gen. 7.
F. Rodenbough, secretary of the in
stitute,. Win chester was awarded to
the Governors Island Museum. Gen,
Sheridan appreciated the fact that
Il was the only institution of its kind
of a National scope in the United
States. He foresaw the future Us
founders had in view
General Sheridan sent Winchester
body TO Prof. Ward, at Rochester, and
paid about $500 to have him put IN
condition for the museum. He also
wrote a brief history of the charger
with list of the engagements IN
which he took part, Sheridan go
the horse as present when 3 years
old. He was Of Black Hawk blood,
foaled near Grand Rapids, Mich, Ia
1853, and an animal Of great strength,
and endurance. st isldoubtful, Gen
eral Sheridan wrote, If his superior

COURT UPHOLDS OFFICER
IN CONGO FREE STATE
Capt. De Keyser, Accused of
Manning Natives, Wins in
SANDER Suit.

LONDON. March 26-While missionaries
were petitioning President Roosevelt and
Secretary Hay at Washington yesterday TO
intervene in behalf of the natives of the
Congo Free State. Captain Henri De Key
sey, former officer of the Congo Free
State, was suing Captain Guy Burrows in
an English court for libel in connection
with the alleged atrocities.
Captain Burrows. his return from the
Congo in January. 1902. published a book in
which he charged Captain De Keyser with
committing numerous atrocities on natives
shooting them. cutting off their hands and
otherwise mutilaiing them. The case had
been on trial for two days and resulted in a
verdict in favor OF Captain De Keyser who
was awarded 81 800 damages.
In the course OF his evidence Captain De
Keyser not only swore that he himself was
guiltless. but gave denial OF similar
charges current against the Congo Free
State officials generally.
The defendant produced no evidence in
support OF the charges. Two other suits
against Burrows. brought by Captain Chal-
tin and Captain Dueriecuick. both Congo
officials whom Burrows charged with dis
emboweling infants etc. were settled in
court Burrows agreeing TO pay each of the
plaintiffs $50 damages.
