Napoleon and Wellington were only
40when they fought their last battle
at Waterloo and the former had been
a general for twenty years.
julius Caesar was master of Europe
and near his death, when he was more
than ten years Foch's junior.
When but 30 Hannibal had electri-
fed Europe by his raid on Rome.
Cromwell had fought all his wars,
been ruler Of England and was in his
grave before he was so.
Washington was but 40 when he
captured CORVALLIS at Yorktown and
was 43 when he was made general Of
the Continental army.

They called him "old Hickory" but
Andrew Jackson was not yet 80 when
he beat the British at New Orleans.
The youth of Union and Confeder-
ate generals in the Civil war is mat
ter of frequent comment. Grant was
only AZ when he became lieutenant
general in command of all the north
ern hosts.
Lee was oldest of the famous COM
manders on either side, but he was
still in the sunny half Of the fifties.
Stonewall jackson wasn't 40 when
killed by his own troops at Chancel-
lorsville.
Galgusha Pennypacker was q gem
eral at 21 and George A. Custer was
a meteoric leader of cavalry when
only a couple of years more than that.
Sheridan was in his early thirties
when he rallied the retreating troops
after his gallop from Winchester.
But this last year was not a thing
of dash and long night marches, but
required extreme physical activity Of
its generals.
For four years 100000 soldiers
confronted each other and moved back
and forth over a few miles of terri
tory.
Blasting each other with thousands
of cannOns, poisoning with gas, drop
ping bombs from airplanes-it was a
game of invention and mechanism
where the old brain of a commander
rather than the youthful muscle was
in greatest demand.

One of our gloomy Gus friends
dropped in today and killed. all the
wheat in thecbOttoms east of town;
is glad that he has no wheat out and
predicts dire results for those farm
eTs who were so unfortunate as to
have such a crop. Like the poor We
have the crop killers with Us always.

CH1CAGo BOARD or TRADE.

Chicago. Nov. 14-Enlarged re-
ceipts together with prospect of a ma :
terial further increase of the crop
movement had a bearish effect today
on the corn market Prices closed
unsettled, / u c to 2Kc net lower,
with December $1.80K to s1.30ss and
May S1.2475 to 1925. Oats lost u c
to &c. The finish in provisions
varied from soc decline to Toe adj
vance
Although at first the corn market
showed considerable strength. the
bulls were soon at a disadvantage, and
during the remainder of the session
the tendency of values was in general
downgrade, The temporary upturn
at the opening seemed due to advances
in the New York stock market and to
higher quotations on hogs. But there
was lack of aggressive buying. and
it was not long before a majority of
traders swung around to the opinion
that the more liberal arrivals today
pointed to a still heavier expansion
of supplies IN the immediate future.
Toward the last bearish sentiment be-
came pronounced owing to reports
that the railroads We're furnishing
cars with greater freedom than has
recently been the rule.
Oats followed corn, advancing early
only to weaken later. New England
offers to resell had q depressing in
fluence.
Provisions were governed chiefly
by Abe action of grain.

10y MORNING iouRN ~ SPECIAL LEASED wiREI
New York, Nov. 14--Stocks made
further substantial rccoveries today
from their severe declines OF the mid
week, although there were signs that
the market had not adjusted itself.
The most noteworthy and hopeful
feature was the activity and strength
OF rails, accompanied by favorable ad-
vices from Washington and the con
fident accumulation of other standard
issues, as reported by commission
houses.
Temporary reversals of relatively
minor proportions succeeded the
strong opening, these being ascribed
mainly to realizing for quick profits
Another setback followed the publica-
ton of the first call money rate of Ia
per cent, the latter figures ruling IN
til the last hour, when successive Of
ferings forced the rate down to per
cent
The condition of the time money
market was the one serious drawback
of the session. Virtually no funds
were obtainable at the s per cent bid,
even for renewals,
Transcontinentals led the rails, with
Union Pacific in the foreground al
an extreme advance of five points.
Changers and coalers were not far
behind with cotton carriers. while
many secondary transportations were
higher by one to four points
General Motors fluctuated in a 20
point radius and closed at n loss of
about eight points Related shares,
Also oils, steels and equipments, eased
at the end,

Red Cross Notes.

Four million people are starving to
death in Armenia including 100000
orphan children whose parents were
killed by the ever cruel and brutal
Turks. The U. S. has promised to
lend helping hand to these unfor-
tunate creatures. Under the auspic-
es of the Potosi branch of the Red
Cross quilts are being ratified to raise
money for this fund Also any dona-
tons will be thankfully received. We
live in land Of plenty, untouched by
the ravages of war. Let US not forget
those to whom the barest necessities
are priceless gifts. Certainly there
could be nothing more pitiful than
the fact that innocent children are
starving by hundreds to satisfy the
greed of men. All money collected
will be handled by the Red Cross and
sent directly to the committee for
Armenian relief Meeting every We'd
nesday night at 1880. Please come.

The Pipe Was Loaded.

Fred Hill and C. Briggs had an ex-
perience Friday evening in their
shack on the Dan Cherrier farm in
the town of Eastman where they are
cutting cordwood and ties. Some
hunter evidently entered their cabin
while the men were at work and put
a loaded cartridge in Fred's pipe
and when he smoked that evening the
cartridge exploded, filling his eyes
with tobacco and powder, driving the
ball into the ceiling and a portion of
the pipe smashed a kittens foot on
the floor. Fred's face was peppered
and bleeding. Both were stunned
and when Mr.. Briggs recovered from
his bewilderment he went to the win
dow to see where the shot came from.
Fred had his hand over the bowl of
the pipe only a moment before
