Staying of Captain
Mates E1emplifies
the IrOny of Fate

CHICAGO. Aug. 24.-Comrades oa
Capt. Joseph Mates, murdered in the
houston riot. who are still in camp
here, feel that there was something
peculiarly unfair in the manner OF
mis- death
Mates, through long unappreciated
years, was n militia standby. lie was
noted for his good humor, his con-
sideratlon for others and for his de-
votion to the Flag. He always wanted
10 see real service and TO die, IL need
be, fighting for the Flag. II is this
that adds the irony TO his fate.
In 1898. that he might be sure OF
being enlisted, he paid a man a dol
lar for his place in line and was ac-
cepted in the first Illinois cavalry.
The regiment did not get to tuDa.
Through monotonous years he re-
peated his enlistmcnts. Last year he
saw service. Of n sort on the Mexican,
border, at Brownsville, Texas. This
year what looked like his big chance
came. and he was eager to get to the
trenches in France. 1t Is expected
that the body will be brought back I,
Chicago and that his funeral will be
made IA public demonstration. He
was unmarried and lived with his
brothers and sisters in house or
land taken out by his grandfather as
government grant many years ago.
