Chief Scout Young.

Editor National Tribune: Rhode
Island honors the memory of Col. Henry
Young. The Legislature of that State
has recently voted to create commits
sion to build monument in honor of
this brave scout and officer. When
Gen. Sheridan invited Young to take
the place of Chief of Scouts he was an
officer in the I'd r. l., doing staff duty
at brigade headquarters. lie promptly
accepted the offer, and threw his whole
soul into the work. Some Of the COM
rades will remember the expedition that
found Maj. Gilmore in bed mapping.
Maj. Gilmore was Chief OF Gen. Early's
Scouts. Col. Young took him prisoner
by orders of Sheridan, and escorted him
TO Fort Warren, Boston Harbor. Com
rade Young was as brave an officer as
ever rode a horse, and If he had been
with Napoleon at Lodi he would have
crossed that bridge or died. Col. Young
lost his life in an expedition at the close
Of the war along the Rio Grande. His
body went down the stream and never
was found.-J. II. Tourjee, I'd r. l.,

prospective designations start the round
OF the country and never let up.
When Mr.. Roosevelt succeeded to the
Presidency it was expected that ne
would chose a Cabinet of his own, but
he took over the Mckinley Cabinet in
stead. Then the prophets began to say
that that spelled disaster. 1t did not.
Soon the rumors that this officer and
that officer would lesign began to ap-
pear The stories of friction in the
Roosevelt Cabinets were not wanting.
Eventually members of the Cabinet did
resign, but it was only in the natural
course.
Members of Mr.. Roosevelt's Cabinet
did not always work together with the
greatest harmony. more than have the
members of the Taft Cabinet or of the
Cabinets of other Presidents. The facts
are that many men who come INTO the
Cabinet do so at something of IMAM
cial sacrifice. This is not always as
great as accounts would lead readers
10 believe But the cost of maintaining
n Cabinet establishment in Washington
is large. especially if the incumbent
wants to cut q dash and IS not willing
TO continue the simple life. Then, after
one has had short service in the Cahi-
net, he has the honor of having held
the place of distinction, ana I he be
busy man with large interests at home
he Is likely TO De LOOKING lOINdIu W thS
time when he will be able to retire from
Office.
This status and the little matters of
difference which arise from time to
time are as fuel to the fires of Cabinet
designations. Critics always abound,
and in considerable part serve useful
end in our scheme of Government. The
more rantankerous of them are apt to
seize upon divers developments as worth
their comments and representations.
Hence it is that stories of Cabinet res
ignations flourish and from time to time
break out with some violence, as has
recently happened.

which we found our country's sword when
the fiery cross was sent out in 1861. We
had not been at war for many years before
this and even many of our Generals had
forgotten all about the art. Hence the
terrible muddle and mismanaGement wit
messed in the war of the rebellion.
Our poor fellows We're sent off as empty

would have ended in national disaster and
disgrace for us. | have no desire to dispel
the romance that surrounds as with halo
the noble and necessary art of war; but |
think every young fellow should know that
to be real soldier it is necessary for him
to be not only a fighting man and brave
man in the field, but perfect camp man
also; and he can never learn to be so in
barrcks-but only on the tented field in
times of peace. In the present generation
our hideous sacrifice of soldiers in the war
of 81 and 30 cannot be understood by
Senators and Representatives in Congress.

Restoring Spiked Cannon.

Editor National Tribune: It fell
to my lot once to be detailed to
and 64-pounders spiked at Island No. N.
They were brought to Memphis on flat
boats We made what we called hollow
drill, the cutting grooves on the end, with
corresponding grooves up the side to allow
the chips to clear. By placing the open
ing over the spike. we would drill down
an inch or So The drill was about one
inch in diameter. This would give room
to fasten a tool made for the purpose to
the spike, the latter usually being broken
off even with the surface of the gun. In
this way we drew a great many, but some
times the spike would break off, being
very hard. Then we would draw it thru
TO the inside. If this failed We would
drill a new vent. In drilling around the
spike 1t enlarged the hole. so we would
have to plug it, first cutting a thread in
the hole and one on a bolt of copper and
turning it in firm and solid cutting 1t OF
even with the surface of the gun, then
drilling small hole thru the plug for
the primer. These guns were aftrward

of the oldest veterans. Comrade VIM.
j. Broadhurst, of that Post, celebrated
his SD birthday by attending a regular
meeting of his Post, and quite a special
effort was made for him. Comrade
Broadhurst is regular attendant of
the Post when his health and the
weather will permit. The weather be-
ing very cold on March 10, which was
the anniversary of Comrade Broad
hursts birthday, special effort was
made to have him present On his ar
rival the Commander, Comrade R. L.
Curtis. ordered the officer of the Day
to escort Comrade Broadhurst to the
front of the Commanders station, and
beside Old Glory and the comrades held
a reception in his honor, giving him a
fraternal greeting and wishing him
many returns of the day. Comrade
Broadhurst gave his country honora BILE
service in Battery c, 1st w. Va. l.. A.
"Buelrs Battery" and is living happily
with his fifth wife. The four former
wives are all dead, he having lived hap
PLY with all of them. hTe present wife
is several years his junior, but is quite
spry for one of her age, and is caring
for him with true devotion. This is a
remarkable marriage record. Buell. Post
has only one cOmrade older than Com
rade Broadhurst. RE is Comrade Sam

frequently attends Post meetings He
served three years in Co. f. 36th Ohio.
