Gen. Thomas Conspicuous,

Representative Gardner presided, and in
his Introductory remarks he spoke of the
conspicuous and gallant service OF Gen.
Thomas; told of some of the incidents
of service under him and of some of the
battles, and particularly that at Nashville
in which Gen. Thomas led his troops to
victory. Chaplain Gallagher was then in
troduced and he continued the praise of
THE Rock of Chickamauga"
Gen. Black was the last speaker ..To-
day the thunder of great guns shook earth
and sea- said Gen. Black, land the great

ed on q mission we can only conjecture
with force We cannot measure, to a sea
which is to furnish the future empire of
America. Let US hope that fair winds
will guide 1t, that high honor will guard
II, and that peace Will be the result of
the great voyage and that the stars of
the mighty flag from the fighting tops of
each of the many ships will shine on men
proud of it and owning ii as the emblem
of liberty and of law.
From kselson to topmast. the ships are
hlied with men from every state of the
Union, and as the feet sails away the
very names of its constituents speak of
the reconciliation of the country. There
are the Connecticut and the Alabama the
Tennessee and tho Illinois. the Georgia
and the Ohio: and they alike float the
same starry flag and uphold the pur-
poses of one great republic.
Forty-two years ago the last hostile
gun was fired, and as the nations chief
lay slain many were in doubt as to what
was TO be the Unions course First came
the'voice of genius pleading for perfect
reconciliation"

Gen. Black next told of a recent visit
to Tennessee. He had hoped to see the
battleields, he said. Instead of the tow
ering rocks with the bloody ravines cours-
ing through them, he said. he saw the
buildings of city: instead of the rumble
of the guns, he heard the hum of indus
try; instead of the powder smoke. he saw
the smoke and steam from factory Chin
neys.
Il found it in my heart to thank God
that | had seen the greater revival of
American art, industry and prosperity"
he said.
Nearly al of the leaders of that time
have passed beyond" Gen. Black con-

president of the United States Civil Ser
vice Commission, pleaded for more con-
sentative utterances and less severe crit
icisms regarding the old animosities which
divided the people of the country back in
the sixties.
we Americans, a generation and a
half after the firing of the last gun of
that conflict cannot afford to rekindle the
old animosities and indulge in severe crit
icisms of our fellows on the other side"
he declared in his address, which was
applauded many times.
This is one of a series of celebrations
proposed by Burnside Post in memory of
distinguished Union generals. and as yes
terday marked the anniversary of the
battle at Nashville. where Gen. Thomas
won his signal victory. the proceedings
