THREE BUILDERS or NATIONS
cavour, William the Silent and George
Washington Never Yielded to
Despotic Ideals.

As a Matchmaker Cayour stands
with William the Silent and George
Washington. Each of these men
fought through the agony of war OF
liberation, yet never yielded for mo-
ment 10 the militarist or despotic
ideals so liable to be bred in time of
crisis: each loved free institutions
with his whole heart; each could have
said as truly as William the Silent, Il
was always on the side of the people,"
yet each avoided the special faults Of
the demagogue as completely as Well
ington or Peel; each planted justice
and mercy amid the chaos of wrath
and revolution; each kept an heroic
equanimicy of temper toward all their
supporters, even toward the foolish
and the false who babe fair to -uin
their work; finally, each died leaving
as his handiwork 4 nation whose ev-
cry merit is symbolized in the life Of
the man who made it, whose every de
feet is due to the tradition which he
started being too lofty for imita-
ton. If Americans can boast that
America is more true to the traditions
OF Washington than Italy is true to
the traditions of Cavour, they may be
sure that their country is reaping the
benefit in due proportion. Measures
and policies and constitutions must
change with changing time. but the
spirit that inspires a Just policy is the
same in the eighteenth, the nine
teenth, and the twentieth centuries

Or. Courtenay entered the Confeder-

surrender found himself without home.

sleeve dsngled empty; the hand that
had saved 50 many lives could not
save itself. II had been amputated
after Gettysburg. and the story goes
that Lee hiuself-the name is always
pronounced slowly and reverently in
Tippah-had said, 4 wish I could give
my hand 10 save yours, doctor" An
other loss. equally grave, but less
conspicuous, was that of his left lung.
1t was this trouble that had brought
him TO 1ippah's mild climate, for near
ly 20 years he had lived there alone in
his three-rOom cottage, riding out ev-
cry day TO his little farm, i've miles
. from town, and reading and smoking

PREDECESSORS OF CAPT. Lux
Colonel saussler. General zurilndsn
and Others Have Escaped From
Prisons In Germany.

About a dozen presidents for the
escape Of Captain Lux from his Ger
man prison can be fcuad in the his
tory of the Franco-German war. and
q large proportion OF the heroes of
them lived to become famous.
A notable case was that OF General
, (then colonell Saussier, ultimately
con mander-in-chfef OF the French
army. who was detained at Grandens.
in the extreme east OF Prussia. 1t Is
said that he put his bolster to bed I'm
stead of himself, hid in an obscure
corner OF the fortress until nightfall,
and then. having obtained a dis
guise by the help OF his orderly, was
allowed 10 walk out of the main
prison gate.
He crossed the frontier to Poland
and returned to France by way OF
Austria and Italy.
General Zurlinden was another pris-
oner who got out of his prison at
Glogan in Silesia. on Christmas eve.
He made his way in Disguise through
Berlin. Frankfort and Karlsruhe to
Basel. feast which was not difficult
for him. as. being an Alsatian, he
spoke German quite as well as his
jailers
Thirdly. we may note the expert
ences of NJ. Paul Deroulede, who es-
capped from Breslau, and it is piquant
to recall that that vehement anti
Semitic did not disdain to disguise
himself as a Polish Jew. He was very
nearly betrayed by a peasant whom
he had bribed to guide him into Bo-
hernia; but he drew his knife with a
ferocious gesture and the peasant
changed his mind, with the result
that N. Deroulede saw the final fights
OF the war as sub-lieutenant of Tur-
cos.
