a little less than eighteen miles from
the line. 1t was at Winchester that
General Sheridan, returning from
Washington, learned that in his ao-
senCe there had been an attack by
the Confederates and that the battle
was going on. 1t is not true that at
Winchester he came upon men re-
treating from the battle ground. He
met the first of them about eight
miles farther on.
cit is not true, either, that the
greater part Of the soldiers had been
routed. The Eighth corps had been
surprised and fired out of their beds.
They had had no chance to fight, and
had retreated. They had been put out
of service, and they got out of the
way as fast as they could. Some Of
them were only half dressed. This
was one corps. After they had fallen
back, the Nineteenth corps had
stopped the men and sent them back
toward Cedar Greek, and they were
doing this when General Sheridan
passed along the pike. The Sixth
"The sergeant and | were grazing
our horses in a side street of New

There was one orderly riding behind
! him. He had outdistanced everybody
else. We fell in behind and followed
for five miles and were close behind
when General Sheridan reached the
! line.
Cali the way was along the pike.
I believe that General Sheridan says
in his memoirs that he left the road
! before he reached Newtown and rode
across country. / believe that in The
excitement of the day he must have
! forgotten the way he really had come.
If he left the pike he came back to It
/ before he reached Newtown, because
he was travelling the road in the cen
ter of town when he passed us. He
did not ride over rail fences, as his
tories say. By that time the rail
fences had all been burned in camp
fires, and the only stone wall he had
to pass had been preached for the
passage Of supply wagons. Struggling
along the road behind him for miles
were the men who had turned back
to follow him as they saw him pass
or who had been met by the soldiers
of the Nineteenth corps.
81 remember the scene as we came
up to the line of battle. The men
were lying on their faces, most Of
them asleep. AS we approached, one
soldier rolled over and raised himself
on his elbow He saw the general,
and he leaped 60 hfs feet and cried
out: General Sheridan is here The
men around him awoke and caught
up the cry, and the cheering swept
along the line, farther and farther
away and growing fainter until it died

appreciated by comparatively few of our cltl
zens, an operator of scientific laboratories,
manufacturer and business corporation. Now
with Uncle Sam in the actual conduct OF arts
and industries on a greater scale, in some In
stances, than they are being carried on by any
private corporation, it has become imperative
from the hard, practical business standpoint
that the government shall have the benefit OF
the highest possible attachments in time and
labor-saving equipment.
In the effort to keep abreast of or little
ahead of the worlds march of progress, the
federal establishment has continually carried
on tests and experiment with a view to dis
closing new capabilities in instruments and ap-
paratus of one kind or another that rank as
commercial products and such may be
bought in the open market. But a large share
of what has been accomplished these past few
years has been due to new inventions evolved
by government officials. And it is pleasing to
note that there is an increasing disposition on
part of the men on Uncle Sans payroll to
regard as federal property the inventions from
which they might otherwise reap fortune.
There have, from time to time, been charges
and rumors putting in question the ethics and
honesty of men who derived private wealth
from inventions alleged to have been worked
out In government time and with the aid of
facilities offered by a governmental position.
Happily however such cases appear to be
growing more rare and to counterbalance the
isolated instances we have examples such rs
recently afforded by Major Squier. assistant
chief signal officer Of the United States army,
when he dedicated to the free use of the
American people the patents covering his new
system of mutiplex telephony.
Some OF the most spectacular of Uncle Sam S
current scientific triumphs are being worked
out by the aid of the most powerful magnet In
the world which has recently been installed at
q cost of s., 200 at the United States bureau OF
standards. This magnet is in effect an en-
larged edition of the familiar toy from which
small boys derive so much enjoyment and 1t
may be whispered that the government scien-
fists are getting q prOportionate amount of ex-
eitement from the almost miraculous powers
nf this largest Of all magnets. Primarily the
new magnet is employed by the government
experts for optical work of the most highly
technical cheracter-a pushing back OF the

Enlistments In Civil War.

There is a record of 2,778,000 enlist
ments during the Civil war. 1t is
stated that OF this number not fewer
than 2,150,79S were under twenty-five
years of age. Those under nineteen
numbered 1,151.43S and those under
seventeen years s44,S91.

cries of ways and means for doing things that
have been done heretofore, but of doing them
more easily, more quickly, more economically
or more effectively than has heretofore been
deemed possible.
The national government has been taking
the lead in scientific, mechanical and engi-
neering development to a constantly 1ncreas-
ing extent in late years. For, of course, the
reader will understand that in speaking OF
Uncle Sans current triumphs in the field or
invention and experiment, reference is made
not to the federal government as represented
by its own experts and employees Now the
national government has always been con-
tributor to the cause of science and invention,
there being dual reasons for its activity In
such direction. On the one hand the central
government, with paternal instinct, has been
bound to contribute in every way to the we'll
being of the whole people and as is well
known such benefit is more often than not con-
ferred through the instrumentality of scien-
tific discoveries and inventions. Obviously
then it is up to Uncle Sam to foster Yankee
ingenuity by every possible means.
Yet the second incentive to federal activity
in this broad field has been even more of
spur than the first. 1t arises from the fact
that the national government is, to an extent

Government officials have within the past Few
months invented several new machines TOT

these inventions may not find very extensive
