GEN. MILLS WAS
BOTH OFFICER
AND GENTLEMAN
High Tribute to Late Chief
of Militia Affairs BY
Secretary Baker

High tribute to the late Maj.-Gen.
Albert l.. Mills, who at the time OF
his death a short time ago was chief
of the division of militia affairs at
Washington, is given in a statement
issued on the day of his death by Sec
rotary of War Newton d. Baker. Gen.
Mills was known personally to sever
al of the older officers OF the Hawai-
ian Department.
Il have a deep sense of personal
loss in the death of Gen. Albert l..
Mills" wrote Secretary Baker. From
the time Of my coming to Washington
he has been more than Jealous in
his self-sacrificing devotion to the af-
fairs of the Militia Bureau, of which
he was the head. His patience, wis
dom and kindness have greatly sim
plified both my task in becoming ia
miliar with the War Department and
the difficult undertaking which fell to
the department upon the call of the
militia to the Texas border.
Plainly, the devotion of Gen. Mills
to his work took strength with which
he might otherwise have been able to
resist the sudden illness.
Few officers in the service have
had more distinguished or varied
career In active military operations
he was severely wounded, but recov-
cred his health and became the build
er of the new West Point, which is
undoubtedly the most monumental
military school in the world. His last
years have been spent in reorganiz
ing the militia and bringing about
higher degree OF sympathy and coop
Grafton between it and the regular
army.
His death marks the passing of
brave soldier, a cultured educator, a
fine administrative officer and an up
right gentleman
