Mentioned In Revolutions.
Gen Greene resigned from the army
in 1886. and became ce-president and
later president of the Barber Asphalt
Company At other times he was also
president OF the National Asphalt Com
many and the Asphalt Company Of
America, and Is reputed 20 have made
several million dollars out OF these In
terests Several times he was accused
OF fostering and promoting revolutions
in Venezuela to obtain control OF the
asphalt lakes OF that country and Trini-
dad. and he was also brought promi-
nent1y into the limelight during the
various Investigations Of the asphalt
trust.
Three years after his resignation from
the army Gen. Greene entered the New
York National Guard as a Major and
engineer Of the First Brigade. and IN
1892 he was elected Colonel Of tic
Seventy-first Regiment. He commanded
that regiment at Camp Black during the
Spanish War, and went with dt no
Tampa. While there he was appointed
as Erigader General by President Nc
Kinley and later became Major Gen
eral. He figured prominently with Gen.
Merritt in the opera tions around Manila,
and upon his return wrote compre-
hensve report for the War Department.
Gen. Greene resigned from the army
in 1898. shortly after the close OF the
war. and was appointed to an important
post in Cuba. He went in for politics
somewhat after his retirement from the
army, and succeeded Lemuel +. Quigs
as president of the Republican County
Committee in July. 1900, serving

He retired from politics and became
interested in the asphalt business. For

Poughkeepsie there is a Cantalever
bridge, one of the finest in the world,
crossing the river, and as we passed
under it it had a freight train
reaching from one end to the other
ON it. As we landed at Yonkers
a colored chorus sang some beauti-
full songs, and the pennies, nickels,
dimes and quarters showered it like
where the Goulds have an estate,
a hailstorm. When past Dobbs on
the Hudson, Hastings came in sight,
and then the beautiful and grand
Palisades on the Jersey side.
After landing we were soon in
taxi and at our stopping place, near

ton and hotel.

we were able to take in Coney Is

I don't suppose Coney can be sur

amusements of every conceivable

to Staten Island, and out to Rich
mond Beach, to Bedloe's Island,
where the one lonely woman, the
Goddess Of Liberty, extends the
torchhght to all who come across the
Atlantic, and l have heard it said
many a poor soldier upon his return
from the world war has sworn to
her that never again would he turn
his back to her, and that no sight is
so beautiful and welcome as "Miss
Liberty" after a 3,000-mile ride
from the other side of the Big Pond.
We rode the surface cars, elevat-
ed, subway and the Fifth avenue
motor buses, passing the great pub
lie library, homes of multi-million-
aires, great stores, including Tiff
fany's, where we saw the $4,000
diamond, and the artificial singing
bird, Lord and Taylors, Altmans'
the Democratic Club, art museum,

have the faithful old clock which
has been sounding the hours day and
night for the past go years, with its
bell used as a riot alarm, ring out
its joyful notes to us older citizens
once more, and l am sure the mat

Sterling has besides the things

fully extend a cordial invitation to
one and all to stop, look and listen
when you hit the city and see if I

truth and nothing but the truth.

The president did announce that
heretofore Mt. Sterling had been I'M
able to support a Commercial Club,
or do any, big things, and that the
Chamber Of Commerce was not or
ganized to do big, but little, things,
very much adverse to the ordinary
mans way of thinking, and while ]
don't speak for the record, only
street talk, have heard that some
WELCOME" signs had been nailed up
along the principal street coming
into the city, but that a number OF
them had been brought in and we're
adjoining some back and vacant lots,
not being able to stand up, and that
through his influence with the City
Council he had succeeded in putting
off Of one of the street corners

our world war veterans; that the
town or court house clock, which
had been unable to show the time Of
night, using his influence with the
county commissioners has had four
"Dimolites" laced around its face,
so that when you look at it after
dark it reminds you Of a "Tin Liz
zie" stranded on the hillside or the
moon in eclipse. In talking about
it few days before I left home
with one Of our most distinguished
lawyers and judges, he said, "What
is the matter with the town clock,

''Well, / have been wondering why

me what a delight it had always
been to him to listen to its ring, but
for a long, long time it had ceased
to function and the pleasure it had
accorded him when it did ring out the
hours both day and night was only
sweet membrance. / began to
think about its purchase by one OF
our distinguished judges long since

the buying of the clock was one OF
the things mentioned when he APP

he did while here on earth, and what

me, and I said, "She has gone on a
