timony from the United States, setting
forth the practicability of a movement
similar to the proposed Red Cross. was a
splendid inspiration to the founders OF
the new organization.
The first American Red Cross was
founded year after the close of the
civil war and was known as the American
Association for the Relief of Miseries of
Battlef1elds. and it was about the same
time that Clara Barton first came into
the public eye. Miss Barton was a gov
eminent clerk in Washington in 1854.
With the beginning of hostilities between
the northern and southern states she en-
tered the hospital service and after the
war organized. at her own expense, a
search for missing soldiers. Subsequently
she followed the German army through
out the Franco-Prussian war, and at its
close was decorated with the Gold Cross
Of Baden and the Iron Cross of Germany.
1t was through her efforts that the Amer
lean Red Cross Of today was organized
in 1881 and she remained it's active presi-
dent until 1904.

There was another royal elopement IN
1904. when the Princess Louise, wife or
Prince Philip of Gotha, ran away with
an army officer named Lieut., Mattachich.
Her infatuation for the handsome young
soldier having been detected. the princess
was sent to a sanitorium, and remained
there for several months. until her gal

The story was revived last summer, when
an Austrian inn keeper sued the lieuten-
ant to recover money loaned him to pay
the expenses of the elope1nent.
