MEN WHO FOUGHT ENTITLED TO CREDIT Saviors of Thelr Country Should Not Be Neglected at a Time When Thelr Incapacity for Work Has Come. When the Douglas County Veterans’' as- soclation held its reunion at Elk City last month, the members were addressed by a number of speakers, among whom was Judge W. W. Slabaugh of Omaha. The full text of the judge's remarks, which were very well received by the old soldiers, follows Veterans of the Civil War: Agaln you meet In anfiual encampment; to renew old friendships; to talk of the scenes of other days; to tell again the story of your hard- ships and privations; to call the roll and note absentees, those who have fought well life’s battle and are promoted to that place where the tocsin of war is never sounded, and where there are no leavings, no part- ings, no hours of long and weary watching and walting; no longing for home, no facing death, no death far from home and kin- dred, no graves marked “‘unknown." Those who braved the shot and shell in | detense of “Iberty, home and country”—he who established In his sacred appointments “Ifberty, home and country' will hold sa- cred and inviolable and will mark all “known." And, in fact, to ail patriots of our common country there are no unknown heroes of the war. Deep in the sacred pre- cincts of the heart, on memory's tablet is inscribed as in letters of blood the words which apply to all our soldlers, living or | dead, “Our heroes, defenders of liberty, home and country. Some may ask why I am here today to participate in this anniversary occasion: to sit with you around the camp fire in days of peace; to hear you relate the scenes from 1861 to 1865; to catch more and more of the inspiration of loyalty and patriotism; to observe and mingle with those who did #so much for my country. My answer—it is our common country. I am a lover of hu- manity. I am a lover of the land in which I live, and of which I am a citizen. Love of country Is Jove of those who saved it, whose blood was offered and which was freely given to wash away the staln of slavery. All Citizens Are Interested. I, with my fellow countrymen, partici- pate in the beneficent results that fol- lowed your patriotic struggl My chil- dren and their children, will, like mysel inherit of the good of your labors. Th why should not I, and all true citizens of this republic be Interested In what you bave done, and in you, who have so nobly wrought. And as that flag must be per- petuated and protected, so must the memory of those who fought for it and won, and more firmly fixed the stars upon tts azure blue and made it possible for others to join the galaxy in that grand constellation, “The United States. You builded better than you kne all who contend for sacred rig principles, and out of whose effort grows, and Is strengthened by their blood, the tree of liberty, whose branches, buds and blossoms bear fruitage, unthought of, but adapted to a progressive people and to na- tions yet unbern. fzed the 300 Spartans, under the leadership of Leonldas, at the gates of Thermopylae withstood the foe until all but one had died, and Napoleon's Old Guard, at Waterloo, embalmed in history, the verity of the occasfon in “The Old Guard dies, but mever surrenders.” And the poet Tennyson sang of that courageous ond {ndomitable band of 600 at Balaklava, who rode into the valley of death. But deep enshrined In our hearts, written by the blood of heroes, and sealed by crystal- ized tears, are the principles for which you fought, but they did mot, “Liberty, bome and country.” 1 did mot fight with you, but I can fight for you. - 1 4id not experience your suf- ferings of camp life and battlefield, but I can tell of ft to my children. I did not participate with you on the battlefield in the integral maintenance of our country, but I can tell to others of your courag fortitude and patriotism and of our cou try's cost. I did not follow that flag into the valley of death or up the mountain of victory, but I can protect it now. Test of True Patriotiam. For the courage, fortitude and unselfish sacrifice of those who fought in our coun- try's wars, for its existence and mainte- nance, are examples to future generations to make them stronger, better and more patriotic, without the trying ordeal of blood and battle. I can just remember those days, when fathers with tearful eyes, but buoyant with courage, prompted by devo- tion to country, separated from wives to brave war's dangers and sufferings; when babes croomed in thelr mothers’ arms, while mothers wept, and later, when that same mother fainted and swooned at the sight of husband’s return, wrapped in his coun- home. The poet then sang The wife who mirds her husband’s sword, 'Mid lttle ones who weep and wonde nd bravely speaks the cheering word, At though her heart be rent asunder' Dgomed nightly in her % to hear The bolts of war aroynd him rattle— Haa shed as sacred blo e'er ‘as poured upon the fleld of battle.

And the possibill- ties of combat with any part of the world were considered and the best means for ac- complishing victory studied. We took In the world as & posaible scene of comflict. And teday, on the fleld of duty, it is ne longer the “boys in blue.” The term more especially yours, earned by your serv. ice in its color. The military world hes been siow in reforms in soldiers’ uaifarms, The keen and prophetic vislon of Bishep Berkley in 1746 promulgated and velced changes that the world at this, late day is securing. In that day, over the sigpature of “Eubulus,” in the Dublin Journal, he wrote: “The body of a man is an engine. Its force should be mansged to produce its full effect when It is most wanted, and ought not therefore to be dissipated on use- less ornaments. Sleeves, facings, capes. flaps, tall caps, double breasts, ia frogs. cot(u pleated shirts, shoulder knots, belts and buttons, more than eaough, are so many drawbacks to a soldier exerting hia Strength In the proper way,—in marching, fighting and pursuin He advocated the sallor's dress for the soldier, unless a bet- ter could be found, and said the clvillzed nations would, in time, look simply to util- Ity and convenience In military drees, but the change would come slowly. In spite of his advice, British soldiers fought at Lex- ington and Waterloo in bearskin hats and cross belts. and our American brothers in Mexico in cumbersome, tall leather hats, with stocks about their mecks: worse ene- mies than the Mexjcan foe. Yet ,the mas- ters and makers of military dress should not run utility to such an extreme that the sol- dier objects to wear it.

Day of the Virginias And that dear old flag, the most beautiful on earth. To you It meeds no encomiums trom me. 1 seldom think of what it means to us but that old story, famillar perhaps to us all, comes to my mind, a story that impressed mo in my boyhood days. Your valor made it possible, and the valor of your sons in the late war with Spain made such scenes universal, If occasion demands. 'Twas on the Cuban coast, long years ago, a ship and crew were captured, having on board arms and munitions for Cuban in- surgents. A mock trlal was quickly had and the crew were condemned to die at sun- rise on the following day. Among the num- ber was a young man, from this north country, who shipped, not knowing the pur- pose or destiny of the vessel. The Ameri- can consul heard the facts that night too late to intercede in behalf of his country- man. But he was present early the next morning al the scene of the execution to save, if possible, the unfortunate prisoner. And just as the sun was about to rise over the eastern hills and was about to fall upon the pallid brow of him who faced the sun- rise and was about to die, a stranger, far from home and kindred, but not far from friends, and just now as that same sun, perhaps, through an eastern window in his home land was shining on the golden curls of his little child, and on the wan face and features of its mother, as if soothing and calming her to meet the trying ordeal of the day's sorrow, and calling her over that long but certain sunbeam path back to the sun that fixed the time of execution, thence over that same sunbeam route to the scene of longing for home and preparing for death in Cuba, and perhaps through another win- dow that same sun in that same homeland was glinting the gray hairs and wrinkled tace of a mother, up in the morning, as was her custom for years, watching, walting and longing for her son's return, him who was her only support in her declining wid- owed years, and whose father at the dread call to arms in '61 obeyed, and imprinted then a kiss on the moistened cheek of wite and boy, and looked In thelr eyes swollen with the flood of grief, for the last time— never to return—except to that home where the summons of the Great Commander of lite's battles called him, where the shafts of criticism are unheard and the enemies of patriot soldiers are unknown. Saved by the Flag. The American consul spoke to the au- thorities present, demanding the release of his countryman, who was gullty of no crime agalnst thelr country. The answer came, “Nothing but the interference of his maj. esty the king of Spain can save the young and for that it was too late. Seeing no hope in human agencies, and just before the order of fire was to be given, when death would come to all the crew, the consul took from his pocket a silken flag, bearing the Stars and Stripes, and rushing forward wrapped it around his countryman, saylng: “Shoot if you dare! You shoot the flag of the greatest nation cn earth. You ssault the patriotism, courage and sym- pathy of its milllons of citizen The young man was saved. That flag saved him, which you fought to save. That flag saved him which your sons recently made still more respected on land and sea, but whose victories were made possible by you. It seems proper that others are invited to articipate with you, to listen to your stories of the war and learn of your char- acter, fortitude and devotion to country, to become more acquainted with your influ- ence upon our country and the lives of gen- erations to follow you, that they may tell it to coming generations. For the principles for which our soldiers fought, and their memory, is our best defense. This is the young patriots' training school. Seeing and owing is better than reading. I belleve if some few were invited to participate with you or to visit you in each of your en- campments it would be of much value and ald in cultivating a patriotic spirit amon, our young people, and In keeping alive your memory and the principles for which you s0 nmobly fought. Veterans' Ald Soclety, Another thing has impressed (tself for years on my attention, until it finds ex- pression today. As your memory and the principles for which you centended m live and be perpetuated, and to that degree which finds the richest fruitage in patriotie endeavor, and as best results come from wetive and harmonlous orgsnization, 1 shall long to see the day when a veteran aid society shall be organized, if not already done, composed of those who were too young to engage In the war, and who have or shall have been born since then, whose object shall be to promulgate and impress the principles for which you fought and to keep alive the memory of the defenders of our country, to ald your organization while it exists, and to aid you with funds, labor and sympathy, all, without bitternes: or sectional feeling, but born, nurtured and maiptained in the sweet peaceful and har- monlons thought and feeling which finds an expression o Christian coura; nd true citizenship and patriotism and which seeks to strengthen and develop to the common good of our common country. Many of you are advanced In years, too fesble to endure hard labor and uunable to cope with virile youth, in his strenuous struggle for the wealth of today. Your best wealth is the realization and satisfaction of a worthy work well done, Our duty is to do, and reward those who made wealth today available and our country the great- est of tke world. Your monument will be the kind recollections of & grateful peeple, more enduring., more significant, more in- spirii more helpful than marble, granite or brogse. What more ocould be ked ? What more could be accomplished For with that the country will grow still stronger and its flag more respected, its people still better, d the notice and deeds of those who are called to battle for it sad for human rights will not be critised nor questioned. T Mest Miserable of Cowa sons No greater curse can come to a country, no more blighting Influence nor demorall; Ing effect, than carping, cowardly eriticism, burled st its bre unse!fish soldiers and defenders, by those too cowardly to brs danger; too selfish to sacrifice; too ignoble to praise; too iguorant to learn the facts: warriors at a distance, whose weapon Is the tongue or pen, and whose enemy Is the valor and success of the soldier, whose bat- tlefield {s the enclosure of peace and civill #ation; who prefer to write their own polit- ical glory at the sacrifice of their country's reputation; or its peril, in the blood of its martyrs. Can you say, at our country's call, our beloved soldiers have fought In vain? Tear the leat of war from our mar- tial history rather than append the words at jts close, “all in vain." No, rather placo instead the wards, “For Liberty, Home and Country,” and wipe the tear of regret from the wife and mother's eye, and smooth her wrinkled brow. Her husband and son did not dle in vain. Her travall, her care, her tears at parting, her hours of watching and walting, his death, her sorrow, were not in vain. Tell to the nations of the earth among which the sacrifices and blood of her boy gave our country its proud and exalted position, and which view us as mighty men of valor, marvelously victorieus for right, as If God himself was our leader. Tell them it was for “Liberty, Home and Country. It was not In vain.” For of the men of '61 the poet sang They mustered at their country's call, The nation and the flag to save When leagued rebellion marshaled forth Its serried squadrons, fierce and brave: True hearts, they fought to reseue both The land and flag from treason's stain; For loyalty, and Union, died. Self-martyrs, have they died In They left the home and social hearth, Forsook the peaceful paths of life, Each human tie' asunder rent, To mingle In the sanguine strif They bared their breasts to wa storm, And fell 'llke ewaths of ripened grain; For human rights thelr lives were given True heroes, have they died in vain? vain? For freedom and free land they fought: Their sturdy blows for both were given; And every hero in their ranks Would risk his right to enter heaven, Ere slavery's curse again should blight One foot of all our broad @omain. For freedom and free lana they died True patriots, have they died In vain? & e ol T e St Ty For justice, priceless. unailoyed, Impartial, meted out to all, That guards altke the poor man's cot, The rich man's house or hall.

For peace fought and' hop'd and pray'd, Peace that would bless the tortured land, That every citizen might rest Safe from the spoller's ruthless hand; Peace that would spread its fair white wings From Texas (south) to northern Maine, And heal the gangrene wounds of war Peace cong'rors, have they died in vain? they They died for Unfon, that the States Should be unsevered through all time; For liberty, that our fair land Should be redeemed from slavery's crime; For home, that every man his hearth Should own, from midland to the mafn, And dwell beneath his own free roof Forever. Have they died In vain? Time Heals the Wound. But time obliterates unjust criticism and memory of those who made it, and fills and covers the wounds made by the shafts thereof, as vegetation covers the holes in mother earth and hides her defects. And in the bright sun of the future the deeds of our soldier yeomen will stand forth and shine with dazzling glory before the dark background of selfish opposition and censured or forgotten calumny. God will drop the curtain of peace and justice be- tween the soidier and his defamer. That the deeds and words of the defenders of liberty, home and country, at home and abroad, may stand forth, examples worthy of emulation, pralsed by patriots every- where, sanctiored by years of experience, nctified by humanity's cause, sesled by the blood of its defenders, exalted by God Almighty, who through another declared. o speak and so0 do, as they who should be judged by the law of Iiberty, for he shall have judgment without mercy who has shown no mercy.” But when will war cease and its dread ravages be no more? Not until eivilization covers the earth, and the people thereof in tles of brotherly love hold each other by the hand. Then will swords be turned to plowshares and bugles to dinner horps. The speedy and decisive blow of modern warfare in civilized lands by the govern- mental power, prevents successful insur- rection, but will not prevent International wars, where each combatant prepares and feels best equipped for the fray. An armed cruiser at a natlon's gates demanding rep ration, will continue until the captains of | our consclences practicing the golden rule, in the realms of civilization, will with un- selfishness, verify the words of the greatest commander of the greatest age, Abraham Lincoln, under whom you fought, who sald: “With malice towards none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God glves us to see the right, let us do all which may achleve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all pations.” Then will war cease and arbitry tion rule, if there be need of it at all, Mingled Joy and Sorrow. Your meeting here 1is surely ome of mingled joy and sorrow. Joy in your re- union and memory's happy review. Sorrow in separations that have come and shall come. The trembling voice, the feeble step, the bowed figures, the dimmed eye, are the warnings and premonitions that precede the final order of the great com- mander, perbaps hastened by hardships in mp or on battlefleld, and foretold Ilik: wise by the lingering messenger of dl ease throughout these many years, as if to beg you quit, your cycle of year: ing run, your duty to humanity done You, who on southern gory field, in health and vigor, have routed the enemy, should be encouraged by the fact that you are spared and stil live, and that the weakening effect of age, the struggle in life's battles, the wasting to which all flesh is helir, is nece sary, that you be overcome in the s with the angel of death. What countless thousands have lived and died since you answered your country's call. What mighty changes have come that | heve helped to place our country in the forefront of the nations of the earth! The you have seen and God grant many more may see. And you, too, must pass away, untll, like the sole survivor at Thermoy or the lone veteran of the Mexican war, in Paris, 1ll., who each year on the county falr grounds holds reunion with the spirits of departed comrades, but one surviv Staunch old soul of a generation, almost gone. He still fights death with broken sword, only to succumb at last. He touches elbows with the dead and refuses to sur- render. He communes with the departed who fell at Cerro Gordo, Monterey or Chapultepec. He calmly faces his last foe. He calls the roll of his comrades and finds Bo response, save in memory. Like Cam- broune, the last of the Old Guard at Water- 100, of whom Victor Hugo tells, who flaunted death and died spurning the foe. He, too, must die when the roll is called on high. And when the summons shall come at the end of duty, well performed, may your spirits aping to thelr Master, who gave them, cause your white lips to utter those memorable words of your beloved comrade and our president, which have immortalized and made inseparable the Christian and the soldier “Its God's way, His will be done.” And If not here in, may we all meet “over therg,” where there are no wars, no partings, nd tears, no death, but an eter- sity's reunion. lowa Not Badly Damaged.

HOW THE BEASTS TAKE TO THE TUNES | Coneord of Sweet Sonnds Has Little Effect on Many, Few to Move: lome Sort tratio - ot Dem, Some interesting experiments were re- | cently made to determine the effect of musie upon different types of wild animals. The Ringling Bros. menagerie presented the opportunity for these investigators. The instrument was a violin. Of all the animals that were tried out on a musical score the puma and eland were the most sensitive. The eland is a mild-mannered animal, with lamb-like eyes and curling bair of maidenly abundance. Even with this pecullarly su ceptible animal, which has all the hal marks of gentle femininity, music wi notable according to its degree of sadness and gladness. For instance, when tuneful numbers were played the eland was a bundle of nervous Intereat, and was palpably pleased. This | was evident In the graceful polse of head, | the alert eye and the muscular sensation | of body that were eloquent of satisfaction. | When the note of music was sad, this same | beautiful animal responded almost like human being. The eyes became molst, the teatures drawn and the whole effect of | animal nature, 8o far as it could be spelled | from outward signs, was sorrowfully sym- | pathetic in the extreme. The traits of the wild creature made one think of a young &irl of fine teeling and tender nature who is mhde easily glad or sad Tastes Differ. Tigers' The tiger was a hard subject to solve. He is a manly beast in the way of form and | solf-esteem, and not an easy mut to crack on any account. Some animal students say | he is brave, recklessly so, and others con-l tend that he s not. The truth is, from the writer's point of view, he Is a handsome brute with eome of the Instinct of human kind that makes this advantage realized, and leads to more or less strutting among his kind. There were five tigers in the cage, which was In three compartments, before which the violinist was placed to demonstrate the effect of music upon this species. The first plece was “Annle Laurie.” A sleepy-looking tigress in the end divi- slon of the cage was the only one to show any symptoms of excitement when this cherished old ballad was played. She lifted her_eyes in the way of one uncertaln of hearing, and Inquiring. When the second stanza was half played ehe had obviously caught up with an exact notion of things and became palnfully sensitive. She stood erect, her eyelids moved fast, and her body fairly trembled, as if in some éaddeniog throe of remembrance. The other animals were stretched fn a confused heap and un- affected. The fddler then changed his tune to one of negro echolng melody. A young wele tiger, fuely drawn in Geure aud feas ture, and stunning in color, jumped in the air at the first bar of this tingling number, As the dancing measure was wrought out, the beautiful beast was a throbbing picture of responsive iInterest. His very muscles seemed to dance sympathetically in time with the tuneful music. One could not help but realize that if there is such a thing as an ear for music in four-footed animals the tiger, or rather this tiger, to be more specific, has this heavenly gift. More curfous still, probably, the male master of the tiger group, a magnificent specimen of his kind, fully eight feeet long from head to extremity of tail and with a head and eye that betokened Intelligence, evinced no sign of interest in what w doing until “Tell Me Pretty Maiden" was played. Then his majesty straightened out as if he had found a new Interest in life and had begun to appreciate the virtue of leadership. No youngster with a high hat and long gray coat, and chin uphold- ing collar, in the picture frame of a stage could look the part of supreme self-satis- faction more than did this royal tiger under the spell of this musical extract. Leopards Are Irresponstve. The leopards, strange to say, were A passive as the butt end of a log. It made no difference to them what kind of music was served; it might be sad or glad, fast or slow, the result was just the same concern. Even the young cubs, of which there were two, looked blankly into space and gave no token of interest. The llon cubs, on the contrary, danced about like children in a temement district when & fairly goood hand organ is made to play by its Itallan owner. The hyenas, who are credited in his- tory with a laugh of potent quality which has served play writers and song writers and all kinds of writ- ers for comparison for ages, {nstead of laughing, as well ordered hyenas ought to do to justify this fame, exhibited every sign of abject fright. They crouched In tbelr cage, contracted their faces, closed their eyes and shivered like upset jelly. When the music stopped they looked up with a tearful expression of appeal that would make the fortune of a church debt lifter 1f he could counterfeit it. Rag time music, sentimental tunes, sor- rowful notes, national dances, patriotic airs, church bhymus, operatic frenzies were played without any perceptible effect upon this {1l-natured beast beyond that of show- ing that upon one thing, at t, he is an abject coward. His performance Auring this experiment would serve to show that & musical instrument of some kind would be a mighty useful weapon for hunters in any forest reaches or thicknesses where hyenas abound.

When a doleful number was played they gave a most woebegone expression of sympathy with the spirit of the music and when It comes to sorrowful looks, the monkey has the world beaten. There is nothing in antmal life that reflects so viv- tdly the sadress of discouraged human nature like the face of an alling monkey It there are any “cheer up” ciubs in the world the face of a sick monkey would be a good emblem for them to cherish, as pointing the moral worth, yes, physical and | intellectual worth, of good feeling. It was laughable, really, to watch the sober mien of these cunming animals when & sacred piece was played. They settled into a worshipful attitude with forearms crossed and eyes-closed and one expected every second to hear a loud exclamation of “amen." When “Gay Paree” was fiddled the blithesome youngsters, and several of the old codgers, who probably ought to kmow better, danced arcund the marrow quarters, circled arourd each other and elevated thelr extremities as if in true Parisian sympathy with the galloping jiogle. The only musical pleces that did not seem to fit-the monkey nature were those of Turk- 1sh origin that came into vogue by way of the Chicago fair. These strangely humun- |like animals appreciated hymns, sentimen- | tal ballads, ‘“coon” melodies, marches, rag time dances, waltzes, but the Asiatle wiggle. with its museum flavor, was too much for the mon- key, even if it did get an award of ap- proval by way of the Chicago fair. One of the quaintest things of the after Sous: noon was the way in which a middle-uged | monkey, speaking from the monkey point of view, responded to the “Last Rose of Summer.” This monkey was a clean- limbed, fair-skinned, bright-eyed chap of his kind, who wae obviously on good terms with the troups of which he was one. As soon us this beautiful love song was un- folded in musical number, the monkey In question became a live coal of responsive interest. His eyes spread like an awaken- Ing child’s. They hecame liquid poft, and were fairly eloquent of tender feeling. No human could manifest a livelier sym- pathy under the apell of musical influence. The monkey Is more than an animal of instinct. This musical experiment compels attention to this fact. An animal that answers Instinctively to the varying phase of music with a spirit almost humanly expressive of Intelligence s more than a creature of instinet, Effect Upon Birds. The last experiment of the day wae made with a cage full of gaily feathered birds from China. 1t was singularly interesting to watch the effect of music upon thase gentle creatures. Sober numbers were ob. viously distressing. Those of light quality with dancing movement, say, were os- peclally stirring. The birds, big and little, would manifest the keenest interest, jump from perch to perch as if directed by the baton of a leader. This motion was beau- titully rhythmic, with musical flow, and conalusively illustrated a responsive chord of nature to the galety of sound in music. When the musiclan moved away they grouped together in the center of the cage and acted almost like human belngs, gath- ering together to comfort each other at a time when the best in life had flown. Even the African hog, & repulsive crea- ture, with snarled teeth and bulging eyes, who Is sald by the animal keepers to have a strange power of fascination over other animals, ylelded to the soothing quality of the music. This homely brute paid no attention whatever to the fiippant tunes of the time. “Go Away Back and Sit Down'" was wasted on Mr. Hogship. It took a good, old-fashioned Sunday school hymn to bring him to a Boer sensibility of the uses of music. When this old church hymn was played he lifted his heavy head and looked toward the musiclan as if he had found a frlend, and would gladly lift his voice in song praise of the wisdom of a Providence that permits the aristoc- racy of his flesh to be cooped up in a nar- Tow clrcus cage for the indifferent notice of a new world.
