CIVIL WAR ENDED

WHEN LEE AND GRANT MET
Hissor'e Event at Appomattox Court
House a. Described by Gen. Hor.

the Two Great Soldiers.

Washington.-Fifty years ago. in
the quiet and peaceful little village of
Appomattox Court House, Va. was
enacted one Of the most memorable
scenes in the history of that civil
strife waged for over four long years
between the North and South, the sur
render of the Army of Northern Vir-
ginia under Gen. Robert E. Lee to
Gen. U. 8. Grant. commander in chief
Of the Union forces.
A half century Of time has served
to blot out the memory of the causes
that led up to the conflict, but those
still living who bore arms during the
strife. and especially the veterans un.
der the immediate commands of Gen.
erals Lee and Grant, can hardly be
expected to forget the day upon which
the leader Of the Confederate forces
In the field decided to submit to what
he sincerely believed was the inevita-
bic.
Follow Lees Example.
Although the surrender of Lee
marked the ofhcial ending Of the war,
there were some Of the Confederate
commanders who refused to believe
that their cause was a lost one and
made strong efforts to continue the

render was brought to General Echols,

strongly expressed the determination
that they should put OF surrender "A

among these. and for several DAYS.

THE condors live throughout the

CORDIAL WELCOME FOR MULE
British Army Authorities Recognise
the Good ouallties Of the
unhandoome Animal.

1t would appear from the quality OF
the latest arrivals Of mules here that
they are to be used for cavalry pur.
poses. The lot at EPSON are declared
by experts to be a. clean as polo
ponies, able to gallop, and quite big
enough for the purpose-they are
about fourteen hands two inches high.
They would outrun any of the heavy
stamp Of horse. of which there are
plenty left, whilst horses suitable for
cavalry purposes are scarce all over
the world. Mules, of course, are used
by Spanish and Mexican cavalry, but
they have not hitherto been used in
the British army except for transport
and for mountain batteries. The like
Ahood is that there will be a revival of
the mounted infantry idea, to take
light cavalry men who are now work
ing In the trenches from place to place
where motor traffic is impossible. Sir
Garnet Wolseley In 1872 foretold some
thing Of the kind In his wellington
Essay" where he said that mounted
infantry on mules or even in carts. &C.
companied by a small proportion of
real cavalry, would be of signal use in
days to come. The mules and ponies
that formed the whole of Sir Fred
erick Rogers transport from Kabul
to Kandaher-he had no oxen or
camels-carried two "maunds," which

St. Paul, Dec. Ex-Governor L. 3.
Hanna of North Dakota has quit thu
Henry Ford peace expedition at Stock
holm, according to news dispatches
received in the twin cities today from

Mr.. Hanna's action, according to
these dispatches, followed clash with
Ford's lieutenants over alleged mis-
representation in connection with in
formal calls the governor made or
certain Norwegian officials.
1t is asserted, the dispatches say
that while these calls had nothing tc
do with the Ford peace propaganda;
the latter representative permitted the
public to infer the opposite, causing
it to directly associate the Norwegian
officials with the movement.
This is said to have displcased thu
North Dakota governor, who is Re.
ported to have left the peace party il
