force was camped within easy strik-

In the meantime things were hap

in command of the Union army which
had been depleted at Charlottesville,
had succeeded in out-maneuvering
General Stuart in command Of Lees
cavalry, had got around Stuart's COM
mand in way to prevent the South
ern general from forming junction
with the forces of his chief comman-
der. Lee gave over the proposed
movement on Harrisburg when he
heard of Hooker's approach and
brought the different parts of his
army together.
Four days before the Gettysburg
fight began General Hooker resigned
as commander of the Union army.
Hooker and General Hallock dis
agreed upon matter concerning
which strategists today say that Gen.
eral Hooker was right. Three days
before the battle began, that is, June
2S, 1868, General George Gordan
Meade was named as General Hook
er's successor in charge of the North
ern army. General Meade at once
went into the field and established
his headquarters at a point ten or

burg were fighting in defense of their
land from invasion, condition which
military men say always adds sub
tie something to the fighting quality
which is in any man. Some authori-
ties have said that there were 100000
men In the Confederate forces at Get
tysburg to be confronted by 10000
Union troops. Another authority says
that the Confederate force was $4,000
and the Union force $4,000. AS 1t was
the armies were pretty nearly equally
divided in strength.
In June, 1863, General Robert q.
Lee began to move northward. Lee
concentrated his army at Winchester,
Va, and then started for the Potomac
river, which he crossed to reach the
state Of Maryland. He fully expected
to be followed by General Hooker's
army and SO General Stuart with a
large force of cavalry was ordered by
Lee to keep in front Of Hooker's army
and to check his pursuit Of the Con-
federates if it was attempted.
Late In June the Confederate force
reached Hagerstown, in the state Of
Maryland. 1t was General Lees in
tention to strike Harrisburg, Pa,
which was great railroad center
and city where Union armies were
recruited and from which all kinds Of
supplies were sent out to the soldiers
In the field. While the Southern COM
mander was on his way with large
part of his force to the Pennsylvania
capital another part Of his command
was ordered to make its way into the
Susquehanna Valley through the town
Of Gettysburg and then to turn in its
course after destroying railroads and
gathering in supplies, and to meet the
Confederate commander with the main
army at Harrisburg
1t was General Jubal A. Early Of
General Lees command, who reached
Gettysburg after long hard march
on June 26. From there he went to
the town of York and from thence to
Wrightsville. At this place he was
ordered by General Lee to retrace his
steps and to bring his detachment
back to camp near Gettysburg.

The Greatest
Power Plant
in the World

The greatest hydro-electric power
plant in the world is now being built
on the Mississippi river between Keo-
kuk, Ia, and Hamilton, Ill. The plant
will have 80 water wheel units of
total capacity of 100000 horsepower
and it will be capable of delivering
100000 horsepower to its customers
more cheaply than 1t can be made by
steam.
The people of Keokuk talked and
planned about the project for years
Finally a promoting corporation was
organized by prominent citizens of
surrounding towns to obtain the rights
needed to promote the project and to
secure an engineer and money for the
work. The city councils Of Keokuk'
and of Hamilton appropriated public
money by unanimous consent Of the
citizens of the two cities, to this pro-
noting organization which was later
paid back into the city treasures.
The promoters got the necessary
permission from congress to dam the
river and then were ready for an en-
gineer. They let their wants be known
and there was no lack of applicants
for the job. Among others came Mr..
Hugh L. Cooper. When they intlmated
that they would like to be shown that
he knew how to build dam, he got a
private car and took them to Niagara
to show them what he had done there.
They were convinced.

vide for the installment Of thirty NAM
