Brtgadier General David S. Gordon,
VINO Is generally conceded to be the
only survivor OF the historic From
tier Guard, IS in Topeka, and al
though in his seventy-ffth year, and
retired from active service in the
United States army for the past eleven
years, a lame man with a glass eye
could see plainly that he was not re-
tired for disability.
General Gordon, although his hair
is white, shows none of the usual
symptoms OF old age. His carriage
could have been no more erect. with
out a backward tilt, in 1861. when he
was first sergeant in Jim Lanes
position in the history of the United
States.
General Gordon came to Topeka
with his wife on account OF the last
illness Of Mrs. Rebecca Hughes. Mrs
Gordon's mother, who died at her
home, 1912 Clay street, last week.
General ana Mrs. Gordon will go to
Washington, D. c., their home since
ne was retired eleven years ago.
When Gene" Ware was commits
sioner Of pensions in Washington he
lived near General Gordon. and be-
came well acquainted with him, and
when Ware learned that his friend
was In Topeka a few days ago, he
fastened to renew the acquaintance
In the course of their conversation
ware learned LllaL Wnll6 IN san fran

daughter a certain earthquake came

his severest losses, the destruction of

military honors won since that mem
orable OCCASION when a band Of fight
ing Kansans took it upon themselves
to protect their president, were lost al
the same time. but General Gordon
seemed to regret the loss of that par
ticular document worst Of all.
While discussing the loss. Mr.. Ware
suddenly rose up with a war whoor
and said:
General, can't restore your lost
document but I can do the next best
can give you an exact copy OF it
word for word
Thereupon ''Ironquiu" rushed to his
Office, dived into his private safe and
pulled out a faded document=the
exact counterpart of the one lost BY
General Gordon, except that it bore
the name of Second Sergeant Holsinge
instead of First Sergeant Gordon. H

TOO MUCH BUSINESS.
!. Y. Central Agents Hunt Cars IN
stead OF Freight.

Chicago, Oct. 27.-Orders have been
issued by the traffic department of the
New York Central lines west of Buff
falo instructing all agents and solicitors
to cease soliciting business as the roads
are unable to handle what comes to
them naturally. The employees have
been directed to hunt for freight cars
are now deyoting all of their time to
tracing freight cars belonging to the
New York Central lines. All Of the
freight agents of the various compan-
les have instructions to travel their
territory and go anywhere they have
reason to believe there is q stray car
belonging to the New York Central.
The work is being done systematica1-
Iy and is resulting IN the use of sew
eral hundred additional cars daily.
From the car accountants the agents
secure complete list Of cars and their
destinations. With this list the agent
follows the cars to foreign lines and
then goes to headquarters with a de-
mand for the immediate return of the
empties
Never in the history of western
roads was the freight congestion so
great as now. It was reported yester-
day that the Northern Pacific has at
least 10000 cars which it is unable to
move, so great has the offered bust
ness become. Other roads in the
northwest also are in bad shape. one Of
the main reasons for congestion being
the abnormal movement of lumber.

A part of the interesting history OF
General Gordon was secured from
Judge Ware. and the general delivered
the story Of the Frontier Guard" and
pair OF choice cigars. when inter
viewed by State Journal reporter at
his hotel.
''The Frontier Guard was the result
OF the rumors OF war and sedition
which arose in 1861" said General
Gordon. Senator Lane called a meet
ing at the cid Willard hotel in Leav-
enWOrth, and announced the fact that
an emergency case was before US, and
that the traitors around Washington
were liable to assassinate our presi-
dent and destroy the government
/ buildings The Ioyal citizens who
! heard him Immediately organized
company, elected Lane captain, and
/ lost no time IN rushing to Washington.
I was city auditor of LeavenWorth at
the time, and the company was com
posed almost entirely of Kansas men.
although several loyal citizens of IN
diana and other states joined our ranks
as we met In Washington. The late
Judge Mark Delahaye was elected first
lieutenant and Joe stockton, after
ward a regular army officer second
/ lieutenant. 7 was first sergeant, and
Holsinger second lieutenant, and I had

company when we assembled in the
