 In the Mexican war President Polk was always anxious for peace, but his envoys were not accepted. At last he went so far as to send an envoy, Nicholas P. Trist, along with Gener- al ScOtt's army, authorized to treat with Mexico the moment that country was willing to do so. Scott quarrel ed with Trist and refused to transmit his letter to the Mexican government. and Trist had to get the British min ister to forward it. After repeated failures and rebuffs, he finally sue ceeded in getting in touch with com missioners appointed by the new gov ernment, which had succeeded San dered his recall. He disregarded this order and negotiated the treaty of l Guadalupe Hidalgo.
 The terms of peace between the United States and the Confederacy were arranged by generals in the field. The Spanish-American war of 1898 closed when Spain, on July 26, made overtures to the United States through M. Cambon, the French ann bassador at Washington.
 In 1870 the French government asked for an armistice, then for peace but the requests were declined and the siege of Paris began. After the surrender of Paris the Germans con sented to an armistice to permit the election of a national assembly which i it could recognize.
 The Boer war ended in an unpre- cedented way. The members of the Transvaal government rode into Mid delburg and requested to be sent to Lord Kitchener to arrange peace terms with him. He met them, but held that the men in the field would have to be consulted. The Boer lead CTS went to the commanders, explain ed the situation to them, and each body in the field chose two delegates to meet and decide the matter by vote,

The occasion for this unusual expression of honor and confidence is eynlainod in the following resolution
 Whereas: Very much to our sur- prise and regret, our attention has been called to a rumor to the effect, that Mrs. Mille Haizlip, our esteem ed and worthy chairman of the sew ing room is drawing a large salary, for the noble service she is now and has been performing since the opening of the sewing rooms: and,
 Whereas: Such rumor being with out the slightest foundation for it's existence, and an unjust reflection on that good lady whose untiring and patient efforts have made the work of the sewing room the pride of every citizen who has any conception of the reason for the existence of a Red Cross society: therefore, be it,
 Resolved: That we condemn as un- true, the said rumor, and ask the news papers to publish these resolutions, and that further. that there is no sal arv being paid to anybody connected with the Red Cross chapter.
 Before adjourning a motion to fur nish two hcspita cot outfits was unan- imously adopted.

 When England desired to end the war with the American colonies she began by sending separate negotiators to the French government and to the The latter, though positively com manded by congress to negotiate no peace without the participation of their French allies, did sign a separ- ate treaty. though with the reserva- tion that it should not go into effect until France had made peace. They then informed the French govern. ment, which accepted the terms.
