MONUMENT LAKE BOUNDARIES

International Commission to Mark Line
F rom Duluth to St. Lawrence.
Scores of great monuments are to
be erected along the United States
and Canadian shores of the great lakes
from Duluth to the St. Lawrence as
boundary marks. This has been de-
c1ded upon by the international wa
terways commission.
The present boundary lines between.
the United States and Canada are an
Intangible thing and in many places
quite unsettled. The plan which has
been outlined by the international wa
terways commission and is now being
worked out contemplates locating at
every point where the boundary line
makes an angle two monuments di-
rectly opposite each other on the two
shores of the lakes.
The exact number of monuments
which will be necessary will not be
known until the boundary line has
been definitely agreed upon and ap-
proved by the British government and
the federal authorities at Washington
It is said. however, that there may be
at least fifty. Designs for the monu-
ments have not yet been thought out,
but it is probable that they will be

ish war broke out Colonel Roosevelt,
who had high regard for General
Woods ability as soldier, obtained
President McKinley's consent for the
organization Of the First United States
volunteer cavalry, which became
known as the rough riders. At Colo
mel Roosevelt's request General Wood
was appointed colonel of the regiment.
After organizing and equipping the
rough riders at San Antonio, Tex,
the regiment went to the front and
served through the whole Cuban cam
paign.
On July 8, 1898, General Wood was
made brigadier general of volunteers
and assumed command Of the Second
brigade, cavalry division of the Fifth
army corps, which participated in the
battles Of Las Guasimas and San Juan.
When the Spanish forces at Santiago
surrendered in July, 1898, General
Wood was appointed military governor
of that city, and on Oct. Z, 1898, he
was assigned to the command Of the
department of Santiago, serving also
as civil governor Of the province Of
Santiago. On July 1, 1899, the two
eastern provinces Of Cuba, Santiago
and Puerto Principe, were consolidated
and placed under General Woods COM
mand. From Dec 20, 1899, to May 20,
1902, when the American troops left
Cuba, General Wood served as mill
tary governor.

handing officer of the de-
partment of the east to become chief
of the general staff of the United
States army in the place of Major Gen
eral ]. franklin Bell, is only forty-nine
years Of age, and his rise in the army
has been one Of the most remarkable
in it's history. He entered the medical
corps as an assistant surgeon on Jan.
5, 1886. and has been promoted by
leaps and bounds.
General Woods designation by Sec
Rotary Of War Dickinson for the most
important administrative command in
the gift of the war department did
not occasion any surprise among army
officers in Washington the other day.
It can also be stated on the authority
of one Of the army's best known Of
fcers that the appointment is one that
will be approved by most of the rank
and file. Several years ago this state
ment would have been impossible, but
today, with his Cuban and Philippine
records and his record at Governors
island behind him. even General
Woods critics admit his ability, en-
ergy and capacity for work. His ac-
tive career as soldier may properly
be said to have begun when he be-

When Leonard Wood was a student
at Harvard his name was intimately
connected with college athletics Of all
sorts, but principally with running and
walking. Big, rawboned and 1.-the, he
resembled in his poses an Indian I'M
trammeled by civilization or civiliZa-
tons clothes. The free and easy swing
Of his gait in those early formation
days at college has never left him. Out
on the plains in the nineties, when his
military yearning led him to forsake
his official duties those of an army
surgeon-for the dangers and fascina-
ton of a volunteer scout. the tireless
| energy won by athletic training stood
him in good stead. The young army
doctor even at that early period of his
career became famous for his long and
powerful stride. This fame followed
him to San Juan. and when in after
days he added leaves to his wreath of
glory by retaining Santiago from its
degradation and filth he became known
