and magnificent upon the stage.
Chattanooga offered Ballngton Booth

Compare Napoleon and Booth.
The former despoiled France OF its
manhood, in a career of insenate and
measureless folly and destruction. The
latter Is upon a crusade of healing and
restoration. which is immeasurable as
to the academic casustry going on at
the Hague. One days work, all over the
world Of Gen. Booths Army puts the
whole business to the blush.
