A grandson of Francis Scott Key,
composer of "The Star-Spangled Ban.
ner," is here. He is John Francis Key,
aged eighty-two, of Pikeville, Md, and
he is veteran of the Second Mary
land infantry of the confederate army.
Wearing a suit Of gray, Key came
into town, weak and almost dropping.
He has been in failing health, but de-
clared he was "going to see Gettys-
burg on this occasion or die"
One of the Oldest veterans in the
big camp is Captain w. H. FIeig of
Houston, Texas, who was ninety years
of age on his last birthday, February
%. During the war he served with
distinction in the marine department
of the confederate navy. Captain
Fleig is one of the best preserved
men in camp and is more active than
many of the other veterans a score of
years less advanced.

The camp is full of unexpected
meetings. Every day brings forth nu
merous meetings between men who
nave not seen one another for many
years. Many are commonplace, but
some are extraordinary. For in,
stance, here Is one:
l. d. Munsee Of Erie county, Penn.
sylvania, soldier in the 111th Penn.
sylvania. was captured by the con.
federates at Peachtree Creek, Ga,
when he was one of Sherman's army
on the celebrated march to the sea-
He was being conveyed to the rear
by a confederate soldier when the
union batteries opened fire upon the
party among whom he was a pris.
oner. The man who was guarding
Munsee was hit and fell, knocking
Munsee down and lying on top of
him.
Seeing his chance of. escape, Nun
see lay very still under the uncon-
scious confederate while the battle
ragged around them. That night he
slipped from under the body and es-
capped to the union lines.
Il thought that fellow was dead"
said Munsee, "but l saw him today.
Poor fellow, his minds bad, and he
didn't recognize me, but was sure of
him. I couldn't even get his name, but
I'm goin over later to the Georgia
camp and try to find out who he is"
One Of the most interesting places
in camp was the lost and found bu-
reau, located under the benches in the
big tent. Everything found on the
grounds was brought there and thou
sands applied every day for missing
articles.
There were at least 100 crutches
piled UP in the bureau, dozen or so ap-
plicants having called for them. Those
who come to redeem their lost
crutches seldom can recognize them
and most Of them go away with some
body else's.
There was one wooden leg also ly-
ing unclaimed. 1t was brought in by
Boy Scout, who had found it under
treo.
Several sets of false teeth we're
found.

/, HI exposures winch came, when
u the Mcnamara brothers and
their associates were on trial, for a
series Of the most daring and hor-
rible crimes in the annals of crimi-
nal trials.
The men had all been prominently
Identified with the labor movements
in this country, and it transpired
that they had used arson, murder
and lesser crimes against those man
ufactures and builders who had not
fully met, in all instances, the de-
mands the labor unions had put upon
them
None suffered so keenly from the
disclosures as those who had had the
good of the labor unions at heart.
The disclosures resulted in a whole
sale investigation of the men con-
nected with the labor unions, and it
was speedily shown the undesirables
that their membership with the I'M
ions was at an end
Labor profited by the exposures,
the men who were guilty were given
sentences which will remove them
for some time to come, from the
fields of their criminal activities.
The great mass of men who are
really laborers, and who need just
such protection as the Union affords
them, were the bitterest in their de-
nOuncement of the means which the
Macnamaras and their tools had
used to further CD the claims of the
honest working-men on the EN-.
ployer.
The Union, at large, suffered
greatly, and it will be sometime be-
fore it RECEIVERS, but with time and
a more careful oversight of the
membership and the methods, the
Union will again come into it's own,
and be the Court of Appeal, as it
was intended to be, between en-
plOyer and employee.
1t seems odd, that with such
recent example of the futility of VIC
lence and anarchistic methods, the
militant suffragette has learned
nothing. Arson often is murder
no one can guage the limit of a fire,
and while one building only may be
meant for destruction, the mind of
man can never gauge the wind-and
the possibilities for great destruction
and loss of life are always present.

they are more reckless than even the

The spectacular parades and the
fireworks which accompany them, in
England at least, have added moth

who are more and more sacrificing
their womanliness (for it is just
that to further a movement which
requires the most delicate handling,
coupled with the incest judgment in
the matter of argument.
If the suffragettes really wanted
to show their fitness to handle the
affairs Of State, they might begin,
with a Gods lavish of material at

Never since the history of the

bOdices for the street, and general
recklessness in the display Of the
feminine figure, that can not be
found duplicated in any period of
history.
1t doesn't matter a bit what the
preachers and the moralists have to
say in the matter, it is up to the
women themselves, and if the suffra-
gettes are really in earnest about
making this a better world, they may
begin to improve the moral part of
it when they restrain the women in
the matter of dress.
If.you have not done so, stand in
well-travelled spot in any of the
streets or a town or city. Get where
the men have congregated, and
watch the parade of feminine forms
go by Keep your ears we'll opened,
and listen to the criticism, the re-

This is not an exaggerated &C

tatiye Underwood, chairman of the
committee on ways and means. inst
