the surgeons got well and received a medal OF
honor from congress for conspicuous gallantry

a commission which gave him the right to

On that day at Charlottesville. Miles was
holding a line of abattis and rifle pits against
tremendous force of the enemy He was in
command of the skrmish line in front of the
first division of the Second Army corps. In
order to hearten his men Miles constantly ex-
posed himself to the fire of the enemy. He
stood upright in the open, counting bullets and
possible death. The confederates couldn't hit
him for n long time The inspiration OF his
conduct enabled his men to hold their ground
long after It seemed certain that the enemy
would drive them back. Finally bullet
found It's mark. and Miles went down with a
wound that ranged downward through his
body into his thigh, producing injury that
made the surgeons say death" but neverthe.

pointed to the wall and told Hancock that

he said General want to lead the charge"
Hancock knew courage when he saw It,

When Young came out of the civil war he
dropped his brigadier generalship of volunteers

Miles career on the plains with more wond
than they do his career in the war of secessio
History has shown that some men lacking
early military training can spring full-fedged in
warriorhood when the time offers. This has he
to be true, however, only of certain kinds of wa
fare. 1t was always supposed by the old reg
ulars that soldier could make a successful
Indian fighter until he had been for years on
the plains and had learned the ways of the
savage. Miles went through six great Indian
campaigns, and carried every one of them to
success. He of the greatest Indian
fighters of American history.
Not many years after the civil war the Chey-
ennes. the Arapahoes. the KiowNs and the Co
manches formed league and raided the from.
tier Miles went after them 1t his first
great Indian engagement. He completely
smashed the reds in hard, driving, fighting
campaign. He did that which was prophesied
he could not do. and he did it so effectively
that these warlke plains Indians never again
took the warpath
Later. Gen. Miles took up the trail of Sitting
Bull and Crazy Horse. with the Fifth infan-
try, and few companies of the Twenty.second
infantry. Crook and Terry had accomplished
comparatively nothing against the bands of
these Chiefs but Miles followed them relent-
lessly with his handful of men, fought them
VIGOROUSLY time after time. and finally cap
tured 1000 of them and sent them into the
agencies.
1t was Gen. Miles who overcame the great
est Indian general who ever fought west of
the Mississippi river-Chief Joseph of the Nez
Perces. 1t was Miles who broke the power of
the Apaches. and 1t Miles who made the
Bannocks and the Minneconjous sue for peace
This clerk who became a soldier, battled for
peace on the frontier. and won his battle.
Lieut. Gen. Miles loves gold braid and the
shiniest OF shiny gold buttons. Again, II is the
one weakness of great American soldier.

they were holding of an apparently ov-
erwhelmng force, when bullet struck the
major-that was Youngs rank at the time
in the elbow, shattering the bone. He
kept on fighting but finally the surgeons
made him submit to irst-aidto-the-injured
treatment.
While they were at it, the horses of the
squadron, the men being dismounted, STAN
peded and went through the line. doing
much damage with their heels. Wounded
as he was, Maj. Young succeeded in keep
ing up the heart of his troopers, who now
had no means of escape from the tremen-
dous force at their front, except their own
legs and he succeeded in holding them to
their duty until they were enabled to draw
off in something like order. If one wishes
to get an idea of the hell of war let him
know that on that day the losses of Maj.
Young's command were so per cent. of the
men engaged.
A writer in the Washington Herald some
time ago told a story of Gen. Young at the
time that he was in Germany, on assign
ment from the war department, to watch
the maneuvers of Kaiser Williams army
1t seems that the general on his way to Ber-
lin had stopped for a day at Dresden, and
while there he was told that it would not
do to let Emperor William know that he
had made visit to any town In Germany
before paying his respects to the kaiser at
the capital. The general met the emperor.
and as the newspaper writer has it, the first
question the emperor put was. is this the
first place in Germany you have visited?"
The general was startled by the sudden
ness of the attack and he blurted: "Oh, no,
your majesty"
Indeed" said the emperor, surprised.
What other German towns have you
visited?"
