To be sure, Humphries has quite a
flock Of individual stars. At the same
time II must be taken into considera-
ton that he has done a whole lot OF
the shining up which has caused
them to sparkle. Frank Thompson

has played a much improved game
since Joining Humphries' combination.

Neither Mutt nor Griggs has anything

wrote an article about it and called the
attention of Louis Ludlow. corresponds
ent of several prominent Indiana pa
pers to the fact that the great Indiana
soldiers grave was without a fitting
memorial stone or monument.
Mr.. Ludlow wrote to his papers
about the matter and his letters being
published, a movement was started in
the state to secure funds for a me-
mortal to Lawton. It was expected
that this memorial would be erected in
Arlington, but the intention was
changed and the money was used TO
put up a splendid monument in the
City Of Indianapolis.
It is difficult to get congress to APP
propriate money for memorials. If
Lawton's grave in Arlington is to be
marked with a fitting tribute to his
great services the people probably
must undertake the work
Henry Ware Lawton served all
through the Civil war and later he
was conspicuous in the various expe-
ditions against hostile Indians. 1t was
said of him that ne would go into dan
gers into which he would not send one
of his soldiers. 1t was he who in the
spring of 1886 was chosen by General
Miles to lead a picked body of troops
into Mexico in pursuit of the murder
Gus Geronimo. For three months
with saltIess mule meat and some
times little of that for rations. he
marched his command 1886 miles
through parched and barren deserts
until Geronimo and his band were cap
tured." =
Victim of Sharpshooter.
On December 10, 1899 Lawton was
on the firing line at San Mateo, in the
Philippines. He was very tall and he
wore a brilliant uniform. He was
leading his troops into battle. He fell,
shot through the heart by bullet from
the rifle of an insurgent sharpshooter.
In the grave next to General Law
ton lies the body of the brave Major
Liscum Of the Ninth Infantry. United
States army, who was killed at Ten
tsin. China. while leading his regiment
in the expedition of the allied nations
to the forbidden city Of China. where
the members of the foreign embassies
were besieged by the Chinese Boxers
and whose lives were in imminent dan
ger.
Probably the most beautiful mOnu-
ment in all Arlington from a purely ar
tistic standpoint is the one at the head
of the grave of Major Liscum. Lis
cum deserves this memorial, but it
brings out more sharply the fact that
a major general Of the United States
army who like Major Liscum. lost his
life in defense of his country. is rest
ing in a grave virtually unmarked.

Resting Place of Great Soldier

Washington.-In Arlington, the great
National cemetery, lies the body of
Henry Ware Lawton, major general
United States army. He was one OF
the most noted soldiers of the Ameri-
can service, and yet save for the lit
tie government stone over his grave his
resting place is unmarked.
Other soldiers of a fame which that
of Lawton eclipsed have mighty me-
mortal stones erected in their honor.
! Lawton is not forgotten. for his name
is cherished by the American people.
but there has been criticism time and
again of the Fact that this great Amer
lean soldier who fell at the head of
his troops while leading them in bat
tie has not been honored by the gov
eminent of the United States with a
memorial in Arlington commensurate
with his services to the republic.
In Indianapolis, Ind, from which
state Henry Ware Lawton entered the
military service as a private at the
| outbreak of the Civil war, there is a
| magnificent monument to his memory.
There is story connected with the
erection of this monument, and it has
bearing on the absence of memori-
al In Arlington cemetery.
Before going further into the details
let it be said that the members of Gen
erai Lawton's family are in no wise
responsible for the absence from Ar
lington cemetery of a monument to his
memory.
Left Only Small Estate.
7 General Lawton like most soldiers
died leaving only a small estate. It
I was his expressed wish before he died
and the understanding is that he left
written request to the effect, that
none of the small amount which he be-
queathed and which was intended to
support his family should be used to
erect any monument to his memory.
! Some years ago the writer of this
article noticed that Lawton's grave in
Arlington, except for the little govern
ment headstone. was unmarked. He
