SURVIVING MEMBERS
 OF A CRACK BATTERY
Forty-six Men Located of the One Or ganization Presented With Stand of CoIors.

Chicago, May 17..-Special Corre- spondence of The Republican)- )-Forty years of search now has located the scattered surviving members of the only battery of the Civil war to which the War department. presented a stand of colors This memorial day the ros- ter of the Chicago board of trade bat tery will be complete, a fact an- nounced at a recent reunion here by the notes of the battery's old brass bugle which had been silent since the members scattered in June 1865. The Civil war was ended May 23, 1S65- forty-three years ago.
 But fOrty-six men remain of the 165 whose names once were known throughout the north. Fortune has not smiled on all alike; some are now millionaires and some have welcomed the shelter of soldiers homes. One made a fortune with Andrew Carne- gie in steel, another grew rich in drugs. General James H. Stokes, the first captain of the battery, long since joined those who fell in southern bat tie fields. Captain G. l. Robinson, who succeeded to the command, is one of the survivors, though in i'll health, perhaps soon to be numbered among those to whose memories a monument in Rosehill cemetery, this city, was unveiled on Memorial day seven years ago. The completed rec ord of the veterans and their present homes now stands as follews:

ran: "Murfreesboro is ours. Terrific fighting on Friday. No more casual ities in the Battery; it has won glo- rious distinction''a
 | Letters from the gunners during the latter part of the war related that the badges each member wore, .'B. of T. Battery" was a never-failing passport at any sentry line; the pickets on see ing it would Obligingly turn their backs, for the record of each member had been established. It was Lieuten- | ant Griffin who fired the first shot in the battle of Chickamaugua and it was his battery which fired the last one.
 When news was received that Gen eral Rosecrans had ordered that a stand of colors, bearing the names of the battles in which the battery had fought, had been presented to it, enthusiasm ran high Finally when the surviving men came back, and marched through the streets the whole city turned out to welcome them. That was on June 27, 1865; and at a great banquet spread on the exchange floor among the grain and
 
 famous command sat down together for the last time. Never again were they all united, and some dropped out of the knowledge of their companions for years. It is, however, a fact of national interest that now the record of all is complete, be they living or dead.
 During the war and through the reconstruction days that followed, the commercial interests of the country represented by the big exchanges stood solidly by the greenback and banknote in the days of their adver- sity. Practical patriotism and free handed sympathy has been shown by them repeatedly since the memorable banquet which marked the disband- ing of the famous battery at the board of trade here. When the world was shocked at the horrors of the Galveston flood, the Chicago board of trade asked no questions but with promptness and decision gathered its members together and from their in- dividual contributions they sent the crippled city 5000. When Johns town was flooded in 1889 the board of trade sent S17,000 to relieve the suffering. In 1890 and 1891 the crops of Dakota were short, the farmer practically bankrupt, and to insure crop, the board of trade forwarded $2,260.20 in the two years to purchase seed for the farmers. The board, without delay, voluntarily and eager ly, by individual contributions sent to the families of the policemen killed or wounded in the Haymarket riot, $13,0OO as a slight expression of it's appreciation of bravery in the public defense. Then, too, the big sum of S21, ,726.6S was sent to the San Fran cisco sufferers in 1906 when the walls were in ruins.
 In the fact that it is merely an association of individuals to deal. by rule. in the nations crops, lies the explanation of the ready response of the board of trade when any emer- gency in civil affairs arose, in the event of disaster to lives or property or in the greater crisis of war. The members have promptly come for ward with their sympathy, their money and-as the roster of the fam ous old battery shows-with their lives when necessary.

 When President Lincoln in 1862 sent out his call for 300,000 men the west was quick to respond. Among the first telegrans he received was the follow ing one, dispatched within AS hours after the call:
 Chicago, July 23, 1862. Abraham Lincoln,
 President of the United States
 "The board of trade of this city have within the last AS hours, raised SIS, 1000 bounty money and have recruited a full company of artillery.
 Signed IL. Hancock, Geo. Armour, IT IVY TIineda1n Walker. S. H. Stevens"
 Fired by the quick patriotic act the other commercial bodies in the north prepared to furnish either mon- ey or recruits.
 The day the battery left was a memorable one for Chicago. Complete ly equipped by the board of trade. the 156 men and their six cannon, marched up Market street, past the old board of trade building. The brokers and grain men in the files beside the can non waved bravely to their colleagues in the cheering crowds on the side walk. That, at least for three years. was their last glimpse of the building where their days had been spent. Amid waving hands and wild cheering, tiiSS iile1ASAlth SOulli lO NdNl1 .DOuSldS. Thence to the smoke of the battle was but a step, and soon the cares of business were forgotten in the scream of the rebel shells and the shrill whistle of bullets. The battery joined the Army of the Cumberland, December 20, 1862.
 No sooner had the rumble of the departing battery died away, than more money and more men were rals- ed and soon the measured tramp of the 72nd, SSth and 30th Illinois Volun- teers, also equipped by the Chicago board of trade, was heard in the path which led toward the pail of battle smoke
 During the next three years of fire. lead and blood the board of trade battery played an active part and covered itself with glory. Often the ponderOus wheels of big business upon receipt of news of "The Battery" January 3rd, 1863, the tumult of the floor" died away when the first news of the Union victory at Stone River was read from a telegram sent by S Fl.

The Ouostion Ron.

What is the specific advantage to q
grange In becoming Incorporated or
eanization?
the advantage OF grange incorpora.
ton IS that it gives the grange a bust
ness standing, allowing it to buy, sell,
contract--in fact, 90 business as an
individual. The acts of its purchasing
agent ore binding on the grange treas
ury end not on the members. If a
purchasing agent OF 81 grange makes a
bargain, 1t may be repudiated by an in
corp0rated grange and he held re-
sponsible, but II given authority by an
Incorporated grange the grange is re-
sponslble as far as its treasury goes
md no further-that is, there is no ip-
diylluaY liability.

Tho Essay EXCHANGE.

Two or three Of the state lecturers
at least have established recently what
Is called an ESSAY exchange Es-
says on various topics suitable TO be
read In grange meetings are written
and loaned TO oranges that may be in
need of such material. The idea Is a
good one, and yet the essay exchange
should not be allowed to take the place
of essays or papers written by mem-
bers of the grange. However, the lat
ter may he consulted and essays which
it furnishes may be occasionally used
to help out programme where there
may be but few who feel themselves
qualified to prepare papers
