SKETCH Of
PERSH|NG'S LIFE
Was Promoted by Roosevelt
After Effective Work in
Philippines
STARTED CAREER
FIGHTING INDIANS
Won Compliment from General Miles
Selected by General Woods for Work
in Phillipines-To Mexican Vet
Grams With Him to France.

When congress conferred the permanent
title of general upon John j. Pershing
he became the fourth man to hold that
coveted title in the army of the United
States. The other three were Grant, Sher-
idan and Sherman.
As late as the time of the Rsssia-Jap-
anese war in 1904, Pershing, over 40 still
was a captain in the regular army. His
associates say he never grumbled, but al
ways kept plugging at his job. Reams
and reams have been written about how
he took a prominent part in the pacifica-
ton of the Philippine islands and how
President Roosevelt made him brgadler
general jumping him over the heads OF
exactly S62 other men who were senior
to him on the service roll.
When Pershing took the punitive ex-
petition to Mexico after the bandit Villa,
he became the only living officer in the
American army who had commanded any
body of troops so large as a brigade IN
anything approaching action. 1t Is true
that the late General Funston commanded
more than brigade on the Vera Cruz
expedition but Funston's troops never got
into action.
From the time Pershing graduated from
West Point in 1886 he had his full share
of active and valuable service in the army.
He entered a campaign against the great
| Apache chief Geronimo who for many
years had kept the great southwestern
country almost closed to immigration by
his skill and bravery.
1t is recorded officially of Pershing that
at the beginning of his career, for in
stance, he was complimented by General
! Miles, his eommander-in-chef in the Ger
onimo campaigns, for marching his troop
with pack train, over cough country, l4
miles in 46 hours, bringing in every ami
NAL and man in good condition. Until
he reached command rank Pershing al
ways was a cavalry officer and the. rec
ords of the war department show more
than one honorable mention for his con
duct during his 10 years service in the
department of Arizona. In the Spanish
war as an officer of the Tenth Cavalry
he was promoted for galantry at the bat
tie of FL Caney to be major in the vol
unteer army and after a short detail IL
Washington in the bureau of insular at
fairs was sent out to the Philippines a
adiutant general of the department o
Mindanao and Jolo.
Attracted by his earnestness and SO
dierly qualities, General Leonard Wood
who was his superior officer at the time
selected Pershing to organize and cor
duct campaign against the Moros VIII
for centuries had successfully resiste
all attempts of the Spanish army to sui
jugate them.
Pershing justified the confidence tina
Wood had imposed in him in his Nor
campaign. There was a sultan of Bacalo
with unknown thousands of followers il
trenched in the marshes and mountain
: of the tropical islands behind heavy fort
i of palm wood, logs and giant creepel

A Splendid Hair Grower

When your hair becomes faded, dry,

and thorn bushes woven into what was
supposed to be impregnable defenses.
Pershing had made study of the con-
ditions and so well had he organized his
little force consisting of a battalion of in
fantry, squadron of cavalry and sec
ton of artillery that in two days the
Moro's strongholds were cleared out and
the Island of Mindanao was soon placed
under Pershing's military governorship.
When he returned home in 1914 he was
given but a short rest in San Francisco
Troubles began on the Mexican border
and he was sent there in command OF
the Eighth brigade, charged with the spe-
cial duty of running down or driving off
Villa His expedition penetrated many
miles into Mexico and army officers be-
lieved that the ultimate capture of Villa
was prevented only by recall orders from
Washington where the authorities decided
that they were unwilling to continue a
military policy seeming certain to in
volve the United States in regular war
with Mexico.
When Pershing was chosen to command
the American forces in France, he took
with him many of the Drowned and hard
ened veterans of his Mexican campaign
and these men formed the nucleus of the
famous First division of the American Elk
peditionary Force
A terrible tragedy had come into Per
shing's life during his Mexican border
service through the loss of his wife and
three of their little children who were
burned to death in their home at the Pres
lido, in San Francisco, during his absence
His life became hard and stern; not to-

Even the dangerous calling of the
bull fighter has had its female follower
Johanna Maestrick was the name of
the young woman who won renown as
matador. At an early age she was
taken to see bull fight in Portugal
Her feminine susceptibilities, far from
revolving at the spectacle, were aroused
to keen desire and determination to
emulate the proves of the bull fighter
After course of training she made her
first appearance in the arena at Oporto.

When Tobacco Was Taboo.

In 1888 the Massachusetts general
court ordered, writer comments,
"that no man shall take any tobacco
within 30 poles of any house or so
near as may endanger the same" In
1913 an act was passed forbidding the
carrying of fire through the streets ex-
cept in covered vessel, smoking, or
having in ones possession "any.lighted
pipe or segar" in the streets or on the
wharves. The penalty was 50. If the
offender was in a ropewalk, the pen
atty was from So to 500. This pro-
hibition of 1903 was not repealed until
1880.
