OF INTEREST TO LOCAL VETERANS

Mr.. Editor:
During the war of the rebellion,
President Lincoln appointed 131 ma
jor-generals. Of all that number but
two are now living-Major-General
Dan Sickels of New York and Major
General John c. Caldwell of Topeka,
Kansas. This together with enclosed
articles from the Topeka Daily Capital
may be of interest to the readers of
the Monitor from the fact that Gen
eral Caldwell was born in Orleans
county in the town of Lowell in 1882
and there passed the early years of
his boyhood.
He was a son of George Caldwell,
and grandson of Major William Cald-
well, honorable mention of whom was
made in the last issue of the Monitor
in connection with the history of Or
leans county that you are now publish
ing.
The article above mentioned speaks
of him as the only major general now
living. This is mistake as General
Sickles is still on 'terra-frma.
am we'll acquainted with General Cald-
we'll. He is quite hale and heart and
on next memorial day, May 80, he is
to deliver the address here.

Following is the article referred to
above as it appeared in Topeka,

Mr.. Editor =
A number of the south end voters of

Fish Trained to Be Shy.

There are people in the world who.
will hardly believe that fish a be,
trained to be shy. Training, they ap-
prehend, has; the effect of producing
confidence, and even boldness in some
creatures. Shyness is a quality inner
tied by nature, they say, and is a
trait, under some circumstances, to
be eliminated. This is a case illus
trative of the wonderful play which 1t
isspossible to place upon many of our
English words. We are reminded of
the Frenchman who enlarged upon
this popularity Of III tongue. You
say fine for beeg tings and fine for
leetle tings. You say elephant is fine
animal and the needle be 'ine.' You
say fine day when it is glorious, and
the rain when it is 'ine,' very fine y
After all, 1t very economical to be able
to condense, sc to speak, u vocabu-
larry in this way and utilize one small
word to convey 30 much. The fact is.
we say that fish are shy when they
really are cunning-but it is the kind
of cunning which is indicated by this
word-shy. We find also that there
are degrees and varying qualities of
shyness, judged by fshermen's par
lance. The fish are said to be gut shy.
hook shy, shy this and shy that, which
indicates that the evolution along this
line is going ahead.

Laws and Locks.

There was once a man who was
afraid burglars might enter his home,
by way of the front door.
So he had double locks put on 1t.
Then he had bolts at the top and bot
tom. Later he had a complicated night
latch and a spring lock attached. Then
he affixed a heavy bar across the CEN
ter of the door. And as a last adorn-.
ment he equipped the door with a
strong steel chain. !
Now, all this was all right, but the
cdd part of it is that he never turned
on the night latch, the spring lock
was always left open, none of the
bolts was ever shot, the bar was al
ways off its place and the chain was
never in use.
But it isn't so odd when we reflect
that he was a legislator who was al
ways helping to pass laws that were
never enforced.
