Roads that Forrest demons trated his best
work at this stage Of the struggle With
force OF 4, too men and Il pieces of ar
ullery he drove Gen. Sturgis and 100
men with % pieces of artillery from the
field.
This was the last straw. The finest
cavalry force ever assembled on the
American continent was put under the
command of Gen Wilson and sent after
Forrest. With 1900 men Wilson met
and crushed Forrest near Selma, Ala. II
was only by the most skillful work that
Forrest saved remnant OF his force.
The war was done. Lee had surrender
ed. and throughout the south the Con-
federates were laying down their arms
About month after Lee gave up the
struggle Forrest surrendered. He went
back to Tennessee and began to repair
his shattered fortunes.
Forrest was reincarnation OF a war
ror of the middle ages. He killed with
his own hands more men. perhaps, than
any other fighter who took part In the
civil war 1t is conservatively estimated
that he slew thirty-two men in hand-to-
hand combat. He never hesitated in ex-
posing himself to the greatest dangers
in the field. In addition to the number OF
Federals he killed he shot to death sew.

One of his military axioms was never
to stand and take charge. but. as he
expressed it, Ito charge, too"
He never used liquor I'm any form ex-
cept when seriously i'll or wounded, and
then he took ii reluctantly and by COM
mand of his surgeon. 1t is said that he
could not distinguish one kind of liquor
from another-that whatever the stimu-
liant he abhorred it.
Where did Forrest get h military
knowledge? Murat, the son OF an inn
keeper. educated for the priesthood. with
no soldierly ancestry, became the great
est cavalry leader Europe has ever known
and died a king. Forrest, the son of
blacksmith, certainly ranks among the
greatest cavalry leaders America has pro-
duced. But Forrest, no more than the
men who have studied his achievements,
could understand where he got his con-
summate mastery of military strategy.
He had it. That satisfied him. Fully
brilliant as Murat as leader he was far
better equipped a fighter He was one
of the greatest if one Of the rudest figures
of Americas heroic age.

1T is stating the case plainly and with

of women in Japan has always been DIFF

oriental countries. Those who wish to
look into our history through thousands

pages. There have been several en-
presses, brave, cultured and wise who
deserve 10 take their place among the

martial women who won immortal fame

"Woman's primacy in philanthropical

The Baroness Takahira is one of the
most fascinating women the oriental ma
tions have ever sent to Washington. She
is the daughter of NJ. Nishyama who for
over forty years held the post of secre-
tary to the japanese house of peers
which is equivalent to the English house
of lords and somewhat similar to the
United States Senate. He was retired on
a handsome pension about ten wears ago
and now lives the leisurely life of the
country gentleman in a beautiful home
near Toxic. The baroness is devoted to
her father. and the separation is the one
unpleasant feature of her residence in
Washington.
She was reared In Toxic in the exclu-
sive society of the young people in high
official life, and she was trained in music
and the languages and in all the arts and
graceS considered peceSsary for her sta
tion in life. She studied for several years
in Paris and during that time she mas
tered that most seductive and attractive
art known to woman, that of dressing
herself well. She was among the first
of the orientals to appear in western
attire in Washington. and since her ad-
vent she has easily led the corps in the
matter Of well gowned women. Her Jew
els are magnificent her pearls appearing
in all the best accounts of the most val
liable and perfect pearls in the world.
Many of her jewels are heirlooms and
have thrilling histories.

counterpart in the heroic days of Greece
and Rome abound on the pages of early
Japanese history. The women of Japan
have always enjoyed a wide social free
dom, though of course this is meant in
comparison with other eastern women
and not with westerners. From this, as
a natural consequence. is the appearance
of so many eminent female figures in the
most stirring episodes of our national de-
velopment.'
The Baroness Takahra has taken keen
interest in the subject Of the education Of
women and she has watched all the con-
troversies growing out of the question on
this side of the Pacific.
I'VE have.' she explained. "a woman's
question, educational and otherwise. The
educational problem is one which is care
fully considered by the gravest and most
experienced of japanese statesmen. That
education is good for women the Japa-
nese acknowledge as frankly as Ameri-
cans and Europeans, but the solution OF
the problem of higher education is prov
ing as difficult with us as with other ma
tions. I can explain my meaning better
by quoting the words in the latest report
of our minister of education.
THE course OF study in the higher
schools for women extends over four
years, but may be further extended or
curtailed by one year according to local
conditions. In addition to the general
course, supplementary courses not exceed
ing two years may be provided for the
benefit Of those desiring to study such
arts as are necessary for women; spe-
cial art course not less than two years
and not more than four years may be
provided in addition to general courses.
Special courses of two or three years may
be provided for the benefit of those who
are desirous of pursuing some special
branches of study.
This shows a broad policy and gen.
erous determination of the government to
aid all ambitious women. The schools
which are embraced in this outlined policy
are thirty-one ptfblic schools which are
affiliated with the higher normal schools
for women, and eight private ones which
follow the same schedule OF studies. For

carried by assault after FORESTS demand
for its surrender had been rejected. That
there was unwarranted killing Of the men
who were fleeing from the fort in an ef
fort to reach gunboat there is no doubt
FORREST In his report said the river was
red with the blood of the dead. In ex-
PLANTATION of the wholesale slaughter it
has been alleged in Forests behalf that
liquor had been served to the negro and
White soldiers by the commandant of the
fort, and that when the Confederates car
ried the works many of the negroes were
In drunken frenzy. They continued
fighting, regardless of orders from their
superiors
Probably portion Of each statement is
true. Unquestionably Forrest had the
blood lust and unquestionably his follow
ers were wild for revenge on the negroes
VINO opposed them so stubbornly at Fort
Pillow. At any rate. Forrest was held
responsible for the slaughter. What lent
color TO the belief throughout the north
1hat he was a savage with little or no re-
gard for the rulse of civilized war was
the fact that when he demanded the sur
render of an opposing force he usually
coupled with 1t the announcement that
there would be no quarter if the demand
was refused and he had to sacrifice men
to bring the other side to terms
The pursuit of Streight, the prominent
part he played in the battle of Chicka-
mauga- the Fort Pillow massacre the de-
feat Of William Sooy Smith and the
ceaseless activity of Forests brigade
led Sherman to offer a major generals
commission to any of his brigadiers who
would kill Forrest or cripple mis- force.
Shermon officially declared that if it cost
10000 lives Forrest had to be crushed.
1t probably was owing more to the
Union generals appreciation of Forests $
ability than to realization on their own
part of his talent that finally led the Con-
federate chieftains to put him I'm COM
mand of all the cavalry in the west and
raise him to the rank of lieutenant gem
eral. But this was rather late in the
day. The cause of the Confederacy was
lost, and every one of sense in the south
ern army knew 1t. Practically all the
benefit Forrest got out of his advance
ment was opportunity to demonstrate that
he could handle a comparatively large
force with as much facility as a small
one: that he was as good a defensive
fighter as offensive, and that he had been
cast for too small role in the great
tragedy up to that time.
