the watchword of his future.
General Custer graduated at West
Point in 1861 and was made second
lieutenant Of company of the United
States cavalry, with which he was
present at the first battle of Bull Run.
He captured the first colors taken by
the Army of the Potomac and distin-
guished himself in several battles, ris-
ing step by step to the rank of major

GENERAL GEORGE ARMSTRONG CUSTER.

the veil will be drawn at the proper
moment by Elizabeth B. Custer, the
widow of the general.
General Custer was born at New
Rumley, O.. on Dec. 3. 1889. He be-
gan his military career at the age of
four years. His father belonged to the
militia, which compelled every able
bodied man in Ohio sixty-seven years
ago TO assemble for muster in uniform
once a month. He frequently took his
son Armstrong. and as he was so
young he was very noticeable among
so many mature men.
1t occurred to Father Custer that a
uniform would be a delight to the
child. so he had one made like his
own by the village tailor in great
secrecy and took his little son home in
it to his surprised and proud mother.

AMERICAS OLDEST SHIP.
The Polly, Which Is to See New York,
Terror of British In 1912.

The Polly, Which Is to See New York,
Terror of British In 1912.
The good ship Polly. which recently
left New Bedford for New York. is the
oldest vessel in the United States and
one of the oldest in the world. For
los years this two masted schooner
has been doing business, but even now
she can outsail many modern vessels.
The Polly's laurels are not all those
of peace. In the war of 1912 many a
time she gave battle on the seas to
craft twice her size. She captured
eleven rich prizes in that conflict. As
a privateer under command of Captain
Juduthan Upton. with her decks 5ris-
Ting with guns. she was the terror Of
British commerce.
The Polly dropped out of the binocu-
lar limelight TO bob up in 1910 in the
coasting trade. In 1919 and the sue
ceeding years the little smartly rugged
sixty footer rounded Cape Horn six
times and made two complete trips
around the world.
OF recent years she has been carry
ing lumber between Bangor and other
Maine ports. While the boat has been
almost remade. it's the same old Polly,
and if you had been interested in ship
ming a century ago you would have no
trouble in recognizing her now.

LONG HIKE FOR ENNIS.
Connecticut Mans Attempt to Lower
Weston's TranscontinentaI Record.

Weston's Transcontinental Record.
John Ennis of Stamford, Conn, sixty,
eight years old. who recently started
ON a transcOntinental walk from New
York to San Francisco in an effort to
lower Edward PaysOn Weston's record
between these two cities, took a swim
in the Atlantic ocean at Coney Island
before starting and will take one in
the Pacific at the end of his trip.
Ennis will attempt to make the trip
over Weston's trail in 100 days. If he
succeeds he will establish a new rec
ord in walking westward across the
continent, because it took Weston 1O5
days to reach the Pacific ocean.
As long distance walker Ennis
has already made a name for himself,
having defeated Dan O'Leary and
Weston in January. 1908. by walking
10 miles in 30 hours 10 minutes.
Ennis was born in Ireland and came
to the United States when a small boy.
He is known as a great walker and
rides only when obliged TO. Ii is said
in Stamford that Ennis has never been
seen wearing an overcoat. and his
wiry figure is a familiar sight striding
briskly along on the coolest days.
But it is not as a walker alone that
letes. He has won many prizes as a
skater and has saved thirteen lives by
his expert swimming.

The Passing of King Edward VII.


Long time a prince. brief time a king,
From first to last a man.
He found this life a goodly thing
In his allotted span.
God rest his soul
BY standards of the world not great.
Yet through his tact and grace
He showed how well a king can wait
And fill a second place.
God rest his soul.
Not fashioned for bold deeds OF strife
And too humane for war,
He seemed in his full joy OF life
A royal troubadour.
God rest his soul.
He lived Mayhap his living proved
That kings are not divine.
He knew the JOY Of being loved,
But erred not with design.
God rest his soul.
He died. So mightier kings have done.
His royal reign was brief.
But few the monarchs who have won
Such need of honest grief.
God rest his soul.

especially the breaking through and

back the kick.

the team at quarter. In the short
scrimmage that was held the scrubs,

D0NT'S FOR ST. JOHNS
College Team Making Ready For Hopkins
Game

With but two more days to work
before their struggle with the Black
and Blue at Homestead on Saturday,
the st. Johnnies were put through
some stiff work yesterday afternoon,
although there was no scrimmaging.
"Dont's" by Head Coach Ceril,
along with some Dos occupied a
good bit of time, when Professor
Cecil took the members of the varsity
squad up by the tackling dummy, and
there drifted into a lecture on the
finer points of the game, in which tne
team has been so sadly lacking this
year. Professor Cecil is not only a
member of the faculty, but a gradu-
ate and former play er at St. John s,
and in previous years his installation
of "St. Johns Spirit" into his men
has won many game where sand
and grit meant as much as actual
ability.
Professor Cecils talk with the var
sity yesterday, which was impromptu,
had its effect. Although the work
was of a rudimentary nature. i'm
provement was noted. Especial at
tention was paid to tackling, and to
falling on the ball, and following
a stiff bit of formation and signal
drill, the varsity was lined up
against the scrubs only for the pur-
pose of forming stronger defense
for kicking formations, while Mellon
was sent back to the half-back posi- d.
tion, from where he booted out ten
neat placement goals over from diff
cult angles.
