The Great Survivor"

RECoILECT1ONS or REBEL REFER Bv
Jane. Morris Morgan Illustrated. sro. PIP
II. t9l Houfh,on Mirlin COMPANY
Al the age OF sixteen a Junior officer
in the Confederate navy; later cav
airy officer in the service of the Khe
dive OF Egypt. and still later. appointed
by President Cleveland. American Con-
sui General TO Australasia such is the
life story. in a nutshell, of Colonel
James Morris Morgan. Nothing from
the pen of Dumas can surpass in vivid
romance this life Of adventure, now
told by the colonel in his "Recollec
tons of a Rebel Refer" just pub
lished by the Houghton Mif1in Com
pany.
Colonel Morgan, who now lives in
Washington. was a brother of Sarah
Morgan Dawson, the author Of "A Con-
federate Girls Diary" which created
such interest a few wears ago. When
the Civil War broke out he was a stu
dent. aged fifteen. at Annapolis. Re-
signing and Fastening home TO the
South. he was at once taken into the
Confederate navy. After various ex-
periences of exciting service on the
coast and sounds of the Carolinas,
among which was the running of the
blockade out of Charleston in the
Herald" he became a junior officer
on the Confederate commerce de-
stroyer, Georgia" In these days Of
wholesale commerce destroying, this
part Of the "Recollections" is of pc
culiar interest
When the war was over. and the
Georgia" no longer flew the Stars and
Bars, Colonel Morgan went to Egypt,
with letters of introduction TO the
Khedive from General Robert L. Lee
and jefferson Davis. The originals Of
these letters are now in the Confed-
crate Museum. at Richmond, Virginia.
There he entered the service of the
Khedive as a cavalry officer where, ap-
parently, through his personal beauty
(he doesn't say so himself, but others
who knew him then. have testified to
the fact); his extraordinary horseman-
ship. and general daredevil gallantry
he was very conspicuous figure. The
adventures and experiences he had in
Egypt make many tales Of fiction seem
pale by comparison. Returning home
in the sos he was appointed by Presi-
dent Cleveland, American Consul Gen.
ersl to Australasia. where he per
formed distinguished services

CITY charities

The Rev. John Wesley Hill, chan.
cellor OF the Lincoln Memorial Uni
versity OF Tennessee delivered one Of
the most powerful addresses ever de-
livered before the Chamber Of Com
inerce at the weekly luncheon in the
Hotel dupont today.
Josiah Marvel suggested, previous
TO the address Of Dr. HILL that the
Chamber Of Commerce should con
slider the subject OF civilian relief
in this city. as a war measure. He
said that there were number Of
charitable organizations in this city
but much lost motion. His sugges-
ton was for the chamber to arrange
for big budget. to be appOrtioned
10 these organizations, and the entire
work be co-ordinated
In his address DR.. Hill spoke on
"Prcsent Day Patriotism" which he
said. was more than giorihed geog-
raphy.
"Patriotism is more than things
he said. 1T is the quickenlng spirit, the
still small voice Of duty, loyalty. sac
rifce and service in the home, bust
ness. civic and national life.
DR.. Hill said that the instant the
Lusitania was sunk the German am
bassador to the United States should
have been handed his passports and
sent out OF the country.
"Now that we have entered this
contract in this war, we will deliver
the goods. and never retire the flag
tintil after it has loated over the inn
perial palace, at Berlin
The meeting ended with the singing
Of America" and at least five min

CROOKED POLICE SEEN BEHIND
18TH WARD VOTE PLOT
What is believed to be part of a
city-wide plot on the part of the
crooked polce-vice lords combina-
ton to work their way back to power
through politics is seen in the discOv-
cry of 1000 fraudulent names on the
polling books of the 18th ward.
States Atty Hoyne has already be-
gun an investigation.
From evidence so far uncovered it
is believed the leaders of the West
Side underworld are behind the plan
to defeat John ]. TOuhy, who is run
ming for alderman, backed by union
labor, a strong independent organi-
cation of men and women and the
HOyne Democrats. They are strlk-
ing at HOyne through TOuhy.
Hoyne has asked the election com
missioners for the 18th ward books.
They will probably be presented to
the grand jury, together with the re-
suits of an investigation made by the
Citizens assn, whose investigators
have discovered glazing frauds in the
eastern section of the ward, the Bar
ney Grogan bailiWick.
For the past six days police Off
Gals formerly connected with the
Desplaines st. and Lake st. stations
and targets in Hoyne's war on graft
and vice have been going through the
ward urging their friends to defeat
Touhy and elect Barney Grogan al
deTman.
The Thompson-Lundin machine
has placed no candidate in the pri-
maries and it's leaders are working
openly to defeat Touhy. This is said
to have resulted from an agreement
made last spring, when GrOgan sup
