Yes sir fought with Stonewall
And faced the fight with Lee;
But if this here Union goes to war,
Make one more gun for me!

AS he galloped to the sea;
But if this here Union goes to war,
Make one more gun for mel
I was with 'em at Manassas
The bully boys in gray;
] heard the thunder roarin'
Round Stonewall Jackson's way,
And many time this sword of mine
Has blazed the route for Lee;
But il this old nation goes to war,
Make one more sword for me.
Pm not so full of fightin',
Nor half so full of fun,
AS | was back in the sixties
When | shouldered my old gun:
It may be that my hair Is white
& SIGH things, you know, must be
But if this Unions in for war,
Make one more gun for me!
| hain't forgot my raisin'-
Nor how, in sixty-two
Or Whereabouts with battle shouts
| charged the boys in blue;
And | say | fought with Stonewall.
And blazed the way for Lee;
But if this old Unions in for war
Make one more gun for me!

HIS NORTHERN BROTHER

Just make it two old fellow;

Beneath the old flag with you,
AS in the days of yore;
Our fathers stood together
And fought on land and sea,
The battles fierce that made us
A nation of the free.

You licked me at Bull Run,
On mary field we struggled
Where neither victory won.
You wore the gray of Southland.

Like men We did our duty.
When screaming bullets flew.

Put when the war was done
Our hands met in friendly clasp.
Our two hearts beat as one.
And now when danger threatens

rible war office scandal, in which she involved a young lieutenant There was a good deal of frank speaking concern ing this matter in the English press and the whole affair had a rather pathetic finale in the death of old Colonel Corn wallis-West, who obviously was com pletely broken by the publicity brought to bear upon his wifes name.
 The Cornwallis- Vests have indeed had a strange and troubled history during the past and present generation. The marriage of Lady Randolph Churchill to George Cornwallis- West, who was only few months older than her son, Winston Churchill, seemed the prelude to an amaz- ing number of stories which have never ceased circulating from then to now.
 The Duke and Duchess of Westminster Invariably provide gossip for all classes of society, while, of course, the matri- monial affairs of Prince and Princess Pless have made food for more eager aypetites in the scandalmongering line than any other aristocratic couple mak> ing temporary home in London. One hears very seldom by the way of Major and Mrs George Corvallis West. He IS seldom seen in London nowadays as he is stationed in Surrey, where he IS pro- vost marshal over a large district. His wife. Mrs Patrick Campbell, has not been seen upon the stage in London since she played in The Thirteenth Chair last winter at the Duke of Yorks theatre. I am told that she is likely to appear again in the new year. I was rather interested one night recently when at the opera saw Mrs. Patrick Campbell (Mrs George Cornwallis-WesDi in a box, while in the stalls was Mrs. Montague Porch, or as she prefers to be called, Lady Randolph Churchill, with her nus band, Captain Porch. In another par, of the house was Lady Ursula Grosvenor tbe prettv young daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Westminster.

 News From the Front
By LADY MARY

London, September 7.-(Special Core spondence. )--It is all over now, but real ly ones idols are occasionally shattered during war time. It used to seem to me that among the inviolate creatures of the earth-a sort of breed apart in fact were the policemen of London. Somehow I could not imagine them having any human failings.
 My respect for the force was in- creased when 1 visited New York recent 1y and found an equally imposing body of men in blue whose sole duty in life seemed to be to make other people com fortable and happy. Indeed, l linked to- gether in my estimation and regard the coEstables of the two great cities of the new world ard the old. Unfortunately last week the golden chain of reverence snapped. Our police were out on strike and I saw them, thousands of them, in civilian clothes and l realized that after all they were just ordinary, everyday, burly citizens, who smoked clay pipes, carried ordinary walking sticks, and in fact comported themselves just like the usual well-to-do laboring man with a grievance to air.
 One procession that I saw strolling rather raggedly along the Strand was led by very big heavy man with large black mouStache and an imposing Roman nose. He was smoking pipe. had light tweed cap on his head and was play ing a tiny concertina, which he swayed about in the most ludicrous fashion. 1 heard one street loafer observe to another "That's Sergeant Brice. He's always on duty along Piccadilly,' and l felt my heart sink when I thought of the loss of dignity from which this sergeant with his squeaking, droning instrument was suffering.
 I also wondered what, exactly, MT. Samuel Gompers must have thought of

Mrs. Vincent Astor, one of Ameri-
cas- wealthy women, is getting con-
siderable praise from the newspapers
because she is waiting upon soldiers
in a Bordeaux canteen. There is no
danger in serving coffee in Bordeaux,
and we are unable to conceive why the
papers are "playing up" the fashiena-
bic Mrs. Astor as hero when Sallie
Brown, Bridget McGinnis and others
of the Red Cross society and Saliva
tion army, who are ministering to the
wounded on the battlefelds, receive
scarcely word Of commentator.
These brave women-fearless and
facing death from shellbursts, mines
and poison gas-are the. ones deserv-
ing of praise, and not the fashionable
Mrs. Aston or Oliver Harriman's
daughter, her colleague, who are mere
ly serving coffee beyond the danger
line.

Four American soldiers in France,
sentenced by court marshal to be shot
two for disobedience and two for
sleeping while on sentry duty-were
made happy by President Wilson few
days ago when the men who went to
sleep were granted full pardon and
the others given term of three years
in Leavenworth prison. Under mill
tary regulations the court martial
could. have done no other than SEN
tenee the men to be executed. How
ever, General Pershing, believing
that there were extenuating circum-
stances surrounding the cases, and
being averse to the shooting down of
his own men, put the matter up. to
the president with recommendations
that the sentences be modified. We
are heartily glad that President Will
son saved these boys lives and that
General Pershing, although deter
mined warrior, possesses a heart so
considerable.

San Jose, CAL, has an organization
which styles itself the knights of
Liberty" These knights have sworn
to either rid the city of pro-enemies
or make them behave themselves.
Their modus operandi is to try the
offenders by drumhead courtmartial,
pass sentence upon them and carry it
out Immediately. For instance, last
week one Koetzer was chained to a
brass cannon in the city park and
tarred and feathered, while others
were thrashed until they agreed to
leave that part of the country. And
they went. While the knights are
doubtless doing the community good
turn in driving out seditionists, the
method pursued by them cannot, of
course, be lawfully encouraged.
