come of the gathering was the unanimous
adoption of a series of recommendations III
which the delegates and experts assembled
strongly urged that their respective countries
take action in three matters, namely an

the adoption of measures for the suppression
of opium smoking, and, finally, the enforce

The experts of the different nations having

THRILLING FIGHT AT SHILOH
AS Both Sides Began Firing Panic
Stricken Bull and White Dog Seen
Running Across Field.

On Sunday morning, April s, 1867,
we were called to arms and hurried
to the front at Shiloh Over the brow
of low hill | could see rebel flag
slowly advancing, writes t. j. Maxwell
of the California Soldiers Home IN
the National Tribune. Both sides be-
can firing, the rebels all the time ad-
vancing. Between the lines | saw a
panic-stricken bull and white dog.
After regular hail storm OF lead

be seen except the dead and wounded.
ran back to lower ground, and the
shot and shell passed over me. MY
brother came to me and said we must
hurry or the cavalry would capture us.
We found the regiment, and were
taken TO support battery of one piece
which was having duel with a rebel
gun. The swing and lead horses had
been shot down; then solid shot
took both of the wheelers. An officer
rode up near the gun, dismounted and
threw the rein around sapling. He
had no sooner done this when shot
passed through his horse. Had he
been in the saddle both his legs would
have been cut off, The next shot
raked the gun The boys cast off the
prolong, dragged the piece few rods
to the left, and in about half an hour
had silenced the rebel gun.
Morning came, and we were taken
to the edge of meadow. In front
from the top of a low wooded hill a
battery was firing on us. Some of the
solid shot would reach our ranks. We
crossed the meadow to attack, threw
down the fence, and soon were
struggling mob, trying to climb
through the thick brush and saplings.
Those who got near the top saw the
infantry suddenly rise and aim, then
dropped to earth as volley passed
over them. The officer in command
saw that it would be a slaughter pen,
and quickly ordered retreat.
We made left wheel, and marched
short distance through open timber
to level ground, and orened fire. |

further, report the wisest measures for better
ing the situation.
1t required year and a half of letter writ
ing, back and forth, before the governments
concerned could be induced to meet each
other on common basis. In explanation OF
this reluctance it may be pointed out that a
number of the countries, notably Great Britain
and her colonies, France. Holland and SIAM
derive large revenues from the opium traffic
and In some instances opium production
is government monopoly Should the
traffic in opium be virtually abolished, as
1t is likely to be in time, these various powers
stand to lose revenue to the enormous aggre
gate of one hundred million dollars year
No wonder they hesitated. However in the
end the common cause of humanity tri-
umphed and it was arranged that an interna-
tonal opium commission should be created.
This commission, which took up its work at
the city of Shanghai, China, early in the year
1909. discussed all phases of the moral, eco
