Lyon little dreamed hig visit would lead to an incident that VII make every particular gray hair stand on end in every Grand Army Re public organization Of the United States.
 It may have been that Lyon has Q ldt of ex-confederates in his train in Texas and wished 70 turn a trick that win tickle them down to tho very marrow of their self-esteem. Or f. nay have been that Lyon was ami nioted by she0r cusscdness.
 Anyhow, while the conversation was -aDging around sll tho points of the SoapGss. Lyon happened to think of the great stone causeway called Cab In John bridge, the longest of it's .k.nd in the world. which was built by Jefferson Davis h the ffties. when he vsas secretary of var.
 "aIr. President" said Lyon. 'T sf- ways did think 1t a great injustice q at the civil war bitterness caused Jefterson Davis name to he erased from Cabin John bridge Why don, you, as one of the last acts of your administration. have his name put back there?"

 The presidents order was commun- icated 10 the war department at once sCd today it was announced at the department that, at the president 8 command, the name of the confeder- ate president will be restored upon enc of the most imposing and famous monuments in the District of Colum- biz
