Parewell Meetings of the General’s at Governor's Island, Army OMcers and ths People—nite of Experience from the Far West— mander's Advice, The Retiring Com. Now York Horald A goneral meoting of the Military Ser. vico institution of the United Statos was | on Governot's Island, and the gathering was given special interest by the presence of Gon, Sherman, who camo to parting visit stafl. Gen, Sherman left the noon boat, accompan.ed by a number | of army officers resident in and about Now York. The veteran commandor was in the best of humor, and chatted | and joked as the little tug made the trip | to the island, Upon the pier was as- sembled tho statl’ of Gen. Hancocl Each of the officers was in full uniform, making a brilliant group at the head of tho gangway. Gen. Sherman, ns ho stopped ashore, shook hands heartily with each member of the stafl, calling him by name and mentioning some incid- ent recalled by the face before him. The visitors, accompanied by the staff, passed up the broad avenue, and upon passing the guard-house on the bluff' there was o | turnout of the guard and a bugler's salute, which was received by the ox-command- ing goneral with bared head. Upon the green the band of the post was ioned, and played “Hail to tho Chief’ s the party passed along to the residenco of Gen, Hancock, who was found at home, convalescent from his recent illness, but still under caro of his physicians, ' The groeting botween the two gencrals was a very warm one, and grounded about them in tho spacious parlors of the Hancock mansion were some fifty oflicers of high rank--a fow in uniform, but the majority in plain dress. It was mentioned to Gen. Sherman that the mon were at their places beside tho light battery on the green, ready to give him a salute, This protiered honor was promptly declined by Gen. Sherman, who said: **Oh, don’t puit yourselves out for me 1 am one of the ‘hasbeens' now, you know, and you had botter keep your powder for some other occa- sions,” MEETING OF T GENERALS, Gen, Hancock looked remarkably well, despite the reports of his recent sickness, and bogan expressing his regrets at the change which had taken his visitor from the active ranks of the army. *‘Ob, dear, no,” broke in the old Gen- eral: “T amnot going to got entirely out of all reach. I shall ouly hido myself out West, and shall always be within call, There are ple 1t{‘ of young men all about us ready w take our places,” and the General waived his hand toward the groupe about him with thoe query, *‘Ain’t you gentlemen{” There was a conversation for a few moments in which many mutual friends wore recalled, and the resident General was congratnlated by his visitor upon the neat appearance of tho island and its charming character a8 a home fox the of- ficers stationed there. *‘Why," said Gen- eneral Sherman, ““if I could trust myself here, 8o near such a great city as this, I don’t know but that I should take up a residence here. You must have a royally social time of it.” As the hour was drawing near for the meeting of the day, Gen. Sherman brought his visit to Gon. Hancock to a close, bidding a very affectionate adieu to his associate and wishing him many yoars more of successful command. A stop of a few mcmonts was made in the residence of Gen, Whipple, and the company passed across to the assembly room in tho arsenal, while the band played, as a special compliment to the hero of the march to the sea, the air of ““Marching Through Georgia.” In the arsenal stood the stuffed figure of the horse made celebrated in Thomas Buchanan Read’s poem on the ride down to Winchester by Gen. Sheridan, This at once attracted tho attention of Gen. Sherman, and he stood for a moment admiring the figure of the animal, Then, stroking the neck, he said, ** Well, you got your shae of glory out of your work in the war, anyhow, and with no one to figure in the pension list after you,” Then the Cieneral passed up stairs, wheroe he was received with applause by the members of the United Servico Insti- tution, THE WORK OF CAVALRYMEN, Gen, Crittenden presided overthe meet- ing, and at once the reading of the regu- lar paper of the day was proceeded with. This was by Col, A Brackett, Third cavalry, on “Our Cavalry, Its Duties, Hardships and Necessities at our Frontier Posts.” ““This arm of the service,” he snid, *had grown apaco of lato years, and though it is very costly may be said to have paid for itself over and over again in the safety it has furnished to the fron- tier sottlers and the immense benefit it has heen to the nation in opening the highways and by ways of the intorior of the North American continent. The duties are somewhat changed of late, in that tho trooper is called upon to shield the red men from the cupidity of the border settlers, instead of crowding him, ag formerly, to the wall and it is, after all, only & question of time when the wave of civilization will swell over the bounda- vy lines and occupy the lands which the to Gen. Hancock and his | ved men now call their own, Asageneral thi our soldiers wear their fatigue uniform and work at almost anything ex- cept soldiering. They build houses, make roads, cut wood, burn brush, clear upland and, in fact, do protty much everything except attend to the duties they are sup posed to have enlisted to perform, The troopor often steals food for his horse and in many cases shares his scant ration of bread with him, A FRONTIER EFISODE, ““There are very few cavalry men who have served any considerable length of time on the frontier who have not been turned out by an alarm of Indians, ally some farmers comes riding in horseback in his shirt sleeves, labori; under the greatest excitenent, hallooing ‘Indians!

G. B. Siegert & Sor e — Smoke Consumed. The Chicago & Alton railroad company promiso to bo the pioncer benefactors in ridding us of ono of the worst nuisances of civilization—smoke. It has thoroughly tested and adopted the Thayer device for consuming smoke. Already the smoke rruveumr has been placed on 75 of the ocomotives, and the order has been given to put it on all, 240 in number, just as fast as an engine has to go to the shops for repair. Not only does it consume the smoke, but the company finds that there isa large saving in fuel and a diminution in the wear and tear of boilers. The great cause of the wear of boilers is tho unequal expansion and contraction of the metal. The aver- agorun of a locomotive is about 600 miles and then it has to go to the shop and have the bolts tightened. It is to the opening and shutting of the door to supply fuel that this unequal cooling and heating is owing, By .he use of the smoke-consumer this s very much reduced, snd there is no extraordinary expansion and contraction while the coal is burned clean up, the sulphur in the csal combines with the oxygen, and is consumed or passes ofl in harmless gasses. In the old method the sulphur is not con- sumed, but having a strong aflinity for iron, unites with and corrodes it. ith the consumer the sulphur is not enly disposed of-but its presence is an actual benefit, adding to the strength of the coal, Nor do the tubes foul as they do man — FURNITURE! e THE e OHEAPEST PLACE IN OMAHA TO BUY Furniture IS AT DEWEY & STONE'S They always have || the largest and best stock.

My troublo has lasted ten years, and never could getany relief until I commenced to use y the present plan, giving free and unimpeded passage to the heat. It has been demonstrated that the saving in fuel is 10 per cent and the water con- verted to steam over 10 per cent., making asavingof 30 per cent, in fuel and power. The saving ina round trip is about the cost of putting tho consumer in a locomotive. But this is not all. Engincers can keep the time better, being ablo to keep steady, constant steam, easier for them on up grades, keep up to schedules, saves one-third handling in coal, and always gives the possibilitics of incrensed spoed. Besides this it does away with the smoke nuisanco in towns and cities, and sparks in the coun- try, and protects the passengers from both, The damago from sparks has been heretofore from $30,000 to $40,000 a year.
