The New Commander.

Judge Charles c. Burton of Nevada

Saratoga encampment, was literally one
of the "boys in blue" in the dark days
of the Civil War. He was only j.
years Of age wnen he left school and
enlisted as a private in the 10Th Ohio
regiment at the breaking out of the
war. His home was then in Warren,
Ohio. where he was born in 1876. he
saw active service with his regiment,
taking part in the battle If Shil III
three days after his 10Th birthday. The
rigors of the campaigns through which
he passed temporarily undermined his
health, and he was discharged for dis
ability incident to the service on
October 18th. 1862. Recovering his
strength. however, he went back into
the service in 1864 and was made a
corporal! He received his final dis
charge at the age of IS.
At the close Of the war he began
the study of law, and was admitted
To- the bar at Warren in April,
1867. He practiced his profession
in that town for one year, and then
removed to Virgil City. Mo. In 1869
he went to Erie. Kansas, for two years,
but, returning to Missouri in 1871.
he settled in Nevada the county seat
of Vernon county. where he still
lives. He soon attained high stand

back or less prominent side OF the
medal appear the familiar initials ana
the hand with the index finger and the
trinity of stars. The same badge Is
worn by the members now, 100 years
later. but no wearer knows the real
and original name of the society, and
it is always spoken of by the initials of
its Greek motto. Said Prof Gros-
veuor in his grafton:
"How interesting 1t would be If to-
night we could obtain from every per-
son in this audience who wears the
key his opinion Of what those letters
mean. Several years ago our honored
colleague, DR.. Parsons, then secretary
of the united chapters, made an effort
to ascertain the opinion of the entire
fraternity upon the subject. He wrote
to each chapter. asking what that
CHAPTER thought those letters meant.

"The Canal Record" published on

excellent statistics showing the
progress of the work on the big canal.
In 1905 the total excavation was 9l4 pa

cubic yards. and during the first seven
months of 1907 it reached the enormous
total of 4,9S5,112 cubic yards. The
