Gen. A. R. Johnson Of Burnet,
Tex, One Of the Figures
Of the Civil War.
IS STILL HARD At WORK
At Eiohty-Eluht He Looks Back Over
Practically All Of the History Of
Texas Lost Eyes in
Battle In Kentucky.

Austin, Tex.-Blindness is a seri-
Gus impediment to most men, but 1t
did not prevent Gen. A. R. johnson Of
burnet, Tex, from accomplishing
Whatever purpose he had In mind
and he has had many purposes. After
he had lost the sight Of both eyes the
general built the city Of Marble Falls,
made several trips East to interest
capital and succeeded; built a water
power plant, school house. shoe
factory. cotton mill. secured a rail-
road for his town, fought Indians and
raised and educated SIX children he
never had seen. He also has taken a
prominent part In Texas politics and
civic work since losing his sight. The
general is now eighty-three years old
and Is as entcrprising as ever.
Brilliant War Record.
Johnson's record in the war between
the states was as brilliant as his work
after the conflict had closed. 1t was
along in 1854 that he lost his sight
from explosion of shot. johnson Is
one of the few remaining generals of
the Confederacy and has been a resi-
dent of Texas for more than sixty
years.
When Johnson came to Texas be-
fore the Civil war, Kentucky being his
native state, he had charge of sec
tion of the Overland Mail Route, one
of the links In the Butterfield Mail
Route between New York and San
Francisco. The Comanche Indians
often attcked and killed the station
agents, and in the fights with them
Johnso9 always took hand.
When the war came he hurried to
Kentucky and Joined General Forrest.
Johnson had two brothers in the fed
eral army and having been absent in

STEWARD LET DOWN LIGHTLY
In View Of Silly Assertion, One Would
Have Liked to See Him More
HarshIy Handled.

A hotel steward said to be known
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and
for forty years an observer of peo-
pie who eat in public dining rooms,
Is reported as saying at convention
Of public food purveyors that Amer
lean women have forgotten how to
cook" The gentleman speaks with
out knowledge of the facts. We may
excuse him only because he has been
penned up In public eating places for
so many years that he has lost all
sense of proportion and lacks facts for
comparison. American women have
not forgotten how to cook. Their
good. wholesome. well-prepared food
for home dining room feeds, and feeds
amazingly well, so per cent of the pop
plation. So general is good home

cumstances to get his meals at public
places regards himself as unfortunate
because he cannot always eat at home,
or at somebody else's home. This no.

Lost Eyesight in Battle.
The general lost his sight during a

Honolulu, 7. H.-A unique feature
of the gradual rise of women's infiu-
ence in Japan, until their position is
now slowly approximating that Of
American and British women. is that
they are giving up smoking, just at the
time when great comment has arisen
over the increase of smoking among

The subject was discussed by DR.. 7.

sion college In Japan, who attended

Japanese Girls
Stop Smoking

their homes" Doctor Haden said, 1.-THE
influence of the West has almost
stopped this custom, although it is to
the interest of the government to fos-
ter 1t, as tobacco is government mo-
nopOly."
New Word for "Home" Coined.
Doctor Haden said that new word
for home-"katei"-has been coined in
japan to express the meaning and idea
OF home life in Western civilization as
Is being learned by the Japanese.
"The changing conditions of Japa-
nese women Is only begun, but 1t is pro-
eeeding with a rapidity and intensity
which are very significant and hope
full" he said. "The japanese language
has a word expressing house and
household, but they had no conception
of home life in the Occident, where
women are on an equal footing with
men. This Is now expressed by
'katei,' with the new appreciation Of
home as thing to be shared by hus-
band and wife and the gradual rise of
the Japanese women to the position Of
their American and British sisters"
Doctor Haden said that the city pop
ulation Of Japan Is increasing 13 times
as fast as that Of the country, due to
the change Of industry from agricul-
ture to manufacturing. More than l.
100000 are engaged In factory work
and more than one-half Of these are
under twenty years Of age, he said.
Women Discard Sandals for Shoes.
"A significant and interesting indi-
cation Of the change In progress In
Japan now" said Doctor Haden, "is
the fact that, while the Japanese wom-
en- retain the kimono as their chief at
tire, they have discarded the obi-the
folded square of cloth worn on the
back-and over their kimonos many
Of the women now wear a full, divided
skirt. which ties around the waist with
wide sash hanging at the side.
Many Of them also wear shoes instead
of their sandals.
divorce laws also have been re-
vfsed in accord with other transit
tions. Formerly a man could send his
wife back to her parents without ex-
cuse or explanation. This act consti-
v ltsdl liccuoH llllu. NOW he
can only divorce her for infidelity or
by agreement with her. The woman
as yet has no recourse against the in
fidelity of her husband, not even
though he bring a concubine into the
home, as frequently has been done.
"The example of Americans, their
homes and schools in Japan, gradually
has altered the hearts and feelings of
the Japanese until now they have been
induced to effect these changes"
