conspicuous gaIanty in actual warfare. To Washington, to Grant, to Sher-
man, and finally to Sheridan, and to no others, was this supreme distinction
conferred. In the cas- of Washington, the rank was fixed by direct vote of the
Continental congress, in 1775, at the beginning of the Revolution. After his
retirement from the presidency, when val with France threatened, in 1898
and 1899, he was placed at the head of the army, but was given the rank of
lieutenant general
by special act of congress in 1866 the grades of general and lieutenant
general were ecreated for the sole benefit of Grant and Sherman. By reason
of Grants elevation to the presidency, the office of general was vacated, and he
nominated Sherman as his successor in 1869.
Congress in 1888 created the dormant rank anew In order that Sheridan,
then lieutenant general, might be given the higher honor while he still lived,
for he was then upon his deathbed. Congress has never held the honor
cheaply, and has always preserves. the right to confer it by special act. 1t
will be observed that except in the case of Washington, this high honor was
not conferred during hostites nor Immediately following the close thereof
As q rule, congress has acted only after a sufficient lapse of time to permit
the exercise of a calm and deliberate judgment, preceded by adequate inquiry

Yankee Division Living Amid kaIeIdo-

BY CAPT. ROBERT J. CASEY,
In the CHICAGO journal.

G~osseldange, Luxemburg. - General
Bell Is president Of Graustark now.
His division-to which we have final
~ become attached-is living amid a
kaleidoscope of international spies.
mysterious men with black boards,
reyolutionists, conspirators, counter
conspirators and beautiful princesses.
All day long the white highways are
filled with dashing couriers. All night
long vigilance committees lie awake
trying to figure out what new plan of
government to start off the next day
with. 1t is certainly a strange situation
for a poor, guileless lot OF infantry
and artillery.
It isn't officially set down In the rec
ords that the general is the last word
~hereabouts, but no one-even the most
ardent revolutionary leader-fails to
admit that his is the only constituted
authority. So long as he continues to
sit in state at die kirche the plotters
don't get much of a chance to raise q
disturbance.
The Storm Breaks.
The storm broke in the teapot the
day Battery F, 124th field artillery,
arrived here after the long march from
the Mouse.
We were just turning across the
River Alzette when a purple limousine
all trimmed with gold and displaying
a brace of silver braided admirals in
the front seat came down the Luxem-
bourg City highway and frightened the
guidon's mule into Mysteries. The bat
terry was called to attention and sa-
lutes were exchanged before it was
realized that the beautiful Marie AIDE
laide, grand duchess Of Luxembourg and
royal princess by her own right, had
just passed. Not knowing anything
about local politics we couldn't guess
that something had gone wrong.
That night, however, a bulletin was
lacked to the door of the schoolhouse

Misunderstanding in French and Ger
man that Marie Adelaide had abdicated
In favor Of her sister, Charlotte, and
that If the populace would try to keep
calm, the government would try to con-
tinue doing business at the old stand.
The story of the revolt, when trans
lated out of two or three mixed Ian
guages, is a Grimm's Fairy Tale sort of
thing. The beautiful Adelaide, it
seems, had been something of a popu-

pepsia is a common symptom, and so are

BELL is RULER

There is q legend connected with her
attitude toward the advancing Prus-

ing to this story. the grand duchess
was shocked when the Germans re-
fused 10 respect the neutrality Of her
country. Luxemburg's army on paper
consisted of $50 men and actually mus

The minister Of war naturally fig
ured that he didn't have much of a

princess undertook moral suasion. She
drove out to the border and lay down
across the road and uttered the SEN

the duchy "You dare not pass"
Duchess Was MIsinformed.
But, alas for the proper climax Of
the story, the beautiful Adelaide had
been misinformed. They did dare to
pass.
A couple Of brawny hussars picked
the princess up, deposited her along
side the road and executed a neat for

gustin Castro, the new commander in
chief Of the northeastern military
zone, not only has a woman press

She is Senorita Teresa Rodriguez,
daughter Of q prominent Mexican poll

soon after General Castro was re-
lieved from active duties as subsec-
rotary of war to conduct a campaign
against the bandits of the north. Sc
