No Monument for General Lee.
THE first day of the annual meet
ing of the G. A. R. (otherwise
the Grand Army of the Repub
lic), now gathered in Washington
city, gave the keynote to existing section
al feeling and political conditions. Gener
al J. H. Wilson voiced the Republican
sentiment when he declared there should
be no monument erected to General Rob
ert E. Lee’s memory, and following his
lead—another shoulder strap—of less di
mensions-wrent a little further when he
said, ”Our soil is too pure to be used for
the erection of a monument to any rebel.”
Both of them were doubtless honest In
these statements. They Yelt what they
said. They are built that way. and for
one. I had much rather hear the truth
from unfriendly lips than a smile which
veils a sneer or a hypocritical pretense
at union and harmony, or of the “love
the blue bears to the gray.” or insincere
campaign oratory about Federals decorat
ing Confederate soldiers' graces, etc., etc.
—which is “mostly tommyrot and poppy
cock. Let us have the plain truth, and let
.both sides stand by it. We have had a sur
feit of flatten- and slim-slamming.
There are brave, unselfish Union soldiers
who do not bear malice, who are willing to
bridge the bloody chasm, who disdain to
kick at a former foe who was honorably
defeated in a hand to hand fight and was
the loser, who do not claim all the earth
the “soli” and all the overplus of an en
tire nation in the abnormal shape of pen
sion money; but they are in a feeble mi
nority. They would forget as well as for
give if they might. They were never of
those who can see no good come out of
Nazareth, they are a different and su
perior grade to the blood-thirsty ones,
who still breathe out threatening and
slaughter. Perhaps it is allowable in this
connection to say, they were born gentle
men and retain the instincts of gentlemen.
All praise to this noble minority! ’
But the majority! The Wilsons and
the Potters!! How different are they
from their gentlemanly brothers in blue.
"How cum” do they own all the “soil?”
Who Is it that will attempt to forbid a
monument erected to General Lee on
southern soil? What is it that consti
tutes a “pure soil?” Who has the right
to talk about a “pure soil,” iu the pres
ence of the Jakie Smith of this day and
time? and who owns the “soil.” anyhow'.'
"Here is a silly stately style indeed!
The Turk who two and fifty kingdoms
hath.
Writes not so tedious style as this.”
Said Shakespeare.
Suppose the Grand Army vetoes a mon
ument to General Lee, who was the great
army engineer of the Mexican war. Who
does the veto hurt, save the revengeful
majority of the G. A. R. ? If anybody
' from the southern side has been fawning
and palavering with the G. A. R. to se

fied if they have only their trouble for
their pains.

Another Pension Official Driven Out.
After Hon. H. Clay Evans was dimissed
from the pension office in Washington
city, malcontents determined to get rid of
the doctor who had striven faithfully to
protect the government from the raven
ous pension sharks, that are determined
to loot the treasury.
Dr. Jacob Raub, the medical director,
has been removed and an "acceptable” ex
aminer has been put in. It fatigues one's
indignation to see how those pension at
torneys fleece the taxpayers.
They are as shameless as they are im
pudent. A few years ago, I met with a
member of a Pennsylvania regiment, on
his way to participate with his command
in unveiling a monument on the battle
field of Chickamauga.
He told me he was one who enlisted for
three months at the beginning of the
war and was mustered out of service a
few days before the first battle of Man
assas. He said he enjoyed soldiering when
he was in the army, as they had no fight
ing during his three months of service,
had no sickness, the wesfther was good
and they had good tents and a plenty to
eat.
I remarked that if he had stayed in
until the Manassas battle was over and
received a scratch, he might have drawn
a pension all these years. “Oh! I got the
pension all right, they gave me a pen
sion,” said he.
“How was that?” I inquireu. “If you
were not hurt, injured or diseased by the
army service how could you get a pen
sion?”
With a queer smile on his face, he an
swered “They handed it to me and I took
it.”
Now. I knew, and I believe he knew
that I did know, that he had sworn false
ly to get that pension, but he did not care;
not he.
It was none of my particular business
to turn informer and a man who would
swear falsely to get a pension from the
government, would swear he never told
me the inside facts about it. False in one
thing he would be false in another, and
I have no doubt but the pension roll has
many such imposter’s names on it. Pres
ident Roosevelt was an enthusiastic civil
service commissioner at one time in his
life. It was one of the stepping stones for
national popularity. What a pity he al
lowed Dr. Raub to be ousted, when the
government needs strict attention to the
demands of pensioners'. If there is a place
in Washington city where strict surveil
lance is needed it 1s the pension medical
director’s office. The Associated Press
tells us “that Dr. Raub I Was
an educated and intelligent man in his
profession and attended to the Important
duties of his position with wisdom and
fidelity. He made every honorable effort
to protect the government from the con
stant and increasing raids that the nu
merous pension sharks are making upon
it. He was an old and valued employe and
knew a fraudulent pension claim the
moment he set eyes upon it. ’
But he had to go; the clamor was un
ceasing; the government’s strong box
must be accessible to the pets and pen
sion sharks, and it is said the new man
will be “agreeable.”
The pension will be “handed out" like
the head of John the Baptist on a “charg
er.” The pension attorneys are growing
fat, and the people who are ’handed” the
pensions are too greedy to refuse tne
tender.
Where all this miserable cheating and
swindling will stop I am sure I do hot
know. This dismissal of qualified men in
the pension office, who endeavored to
protect the taxpayers of the country
should meet rebuke at the ballot box. We
should appeal from President Roosevelt
and show him the decrees of civil service
Commissioner Roosevelt.

LAZARRE.
BY MARY HARTWELL CATHERWOOD.

BOOK I.—AWAKENING.
I remember poising naked upon a rock,
ready to dive into Lake George. This
memory stands at the end of a diminish
ing vista; the extreme point of coherent
recollection. My body and muscular
limbs reflected in the water filled me with
savage pride.
I know, as the beast knows its herd,
that my mother Marianne was hanging
the pot over the fire pit in the center of
our lodge; the children were playing with
other papooses; and my father was hunt
ing down the lake. The hunting and fish
ing were good, and we had plenty of meat.
Skenedonk, whom I consiuered a person
belonging to myself, was stripping more
slowly on the rock behind me. We were
heated with wood ranging. Aboriginal
life, primeval and vigor giving, lay behind
me when I plunged expecting to strike out
under the delicious forest shadow.
When I came up the sun had vanished,
the woods and their shadow were gone.
So were the Indian children playing on
the shore, and the shore with them. My
mother Marianne might still be nanging
her pot in the lodge. But all the hunt
ing lodges of our peoples were as com
pletely lost as if I had entered another
world.
My head was bandaged, as I discovered
when I turned it to look around, me
walls were not the log walls of our lodge,
chinked with moss and topped by a bark
roof. On the contrary they were grander
than the inside of St. Regis church where
I took my first communion, though that
was built of stone. These walls were pan
eled, as I learned afterward to call that
noble finishing, and ornamented with pic
tures, and crystal sockets for candles.
The use of the crystal sockets was evi
dent, for one shade wax light burned near
me. The ceiling was not composed of
wooden beams like some Canadian houses,
but divided itself into panels also, re
flecting the light with a dark rosy shin
ing. Lace work finer than a priest s white
garments fluttered at the windows.
I had dived early in the afternoon, and
it was night. Instead of finding myself
still stripped for swimming. I had a loose
robe around me, and a coverlet drawn
up to my armpits. The couch under me
was by no means of hemlock twigs and
skins, like our bunks at home, but soft
and rich. I wondered if I had died and
gone to heaven: and just then the Virgin
moved past my head and stood looking
down at, me. I started to jump out of a
window, but felt so little power to move
that I only twitched, and pretended to be
asleep, and watched her as we sighted
game, with eyes nearly shut. She had a
poppet of a child on one arm that sat
up instead of leaning against her shoul
der, and looked at me, too. Thq poppet
had a cap on its head, and was dressed
in lace, and she wore a white dress that
let her neck and arms out. but covered her
to the ground. This was remarkable, as
the Indian women covered their necks
and arms, and wore their petticoats short.
I could see this image breathe, which was
a marvel, and the color moving under
her white skin. Her eyes seemed to go
through you and search all the veins,
sending a shiver of pleasure down your
back.
Now I knew after the first start that she
was a living girl holding a living baby,
and when my father, Thomas V illiams,
appeared at the door of the room, it was
certain I could not be in heaven. It came
over me in a flash that I myself was
changed. In spite of the bandages my
head was as clear as If all its faculties
were washed and newly arranged. I could
look back into my life and perceive things
that I had only sensed as a dumb brute.
A fish thawed out after being frozen, and
reanimated through every sparkling scale
and tremulous fin. could not have felt
its resurrection more keenly. My broken
head gave me no trouble at all.
The girl and baby disappeared as soon
as I saw my father; which was not sur
prising. for he could not be called a pre
possessing half-breed. His lower lip
protruded and hung sullenly. He had
heavy brows and a shaggy thatch of hair.
Our St. Regis Iroquois kept to the buck
skins, though they often had hunting
shirts of fulled flannel; yid my father s
buckskins were very dirty.
A little man, -oat I did not know was in
the room, shuffled across the flodr to keep
my father from entering. Around the
base of his head he had a thin curtain
of hair scarcely reaching his shoulders.
His nose pointed upward. Its tip was the
shape of a candle extinguisher. He wore
horn spectacles, and knee breeches, waist
coat and coat ot black like the ink which
fades to brown in a drying ink horn. He
put , his hands together and took them
apart uncertainly, and shot out his lip and
frowned, as If he had an universal grudge
and dared not vent it. -
..He said something in a language I did
not understand, and my father' made no
answer. Then he began a kind of Anglo-
French. worse than the patois we used
at St. Regis when we did not speak Iro
quois I made out the talk between the
two. understanding each without hesita
tion.
“Sir. who are you?”
“The chief, Thomas Williams.” answer
ed my father.
“Pardon me, sir; but you are unmis
takably an Indian.”
“Iroquois chief,” said my father. Mo-
“That being the case, what authority
have you for calling yourself Thomas
Williams?” challenged the little man.
"Thomas Williams Is my name. "
“Impossible, sir! Skenedonk, the Oneida,
does not assume so much. He lays no
claim to William Jones or John Smith,
or some other honest British name.
The chief maintained silent dignity.
“Come sir, let me have your Indian
name; I can hear It if I cannot repeat
Silently contemptuous, my father turn
ed toward me.
“Stop, sir!” the man In the horn spec
tacles cried. “What do you want.
“I want my boy.” >f
“Your boy? This lad is white.
“My grandmother was white,” conde
scended the chief. “A white prisoner
from Deerfield. Eunice V illiams.
“I see. str. You get your Williams from
the Yankees. And Is this lad s mother
w'hite, too?”
“No. Mohawk.”
“Why. man, his body is like milk! He
is no son of yours.”
The chief marched toward me.
“lA>t him alone! If you try to drag him
out of the manor I will appeal to the au
thority of Le Ray de Chaumont.”
My father spoke to me with sharp au
thority:
“What do you call him?” the little man
inquired ambling beside the chief.
“Eleazer Williams is his name. But in
the lodges at St. Regis, everywhere, it is
Lazarre."
“How old is he?”
"About eighteen years.”
“Well. Thomas Williams.” said my fret
ful guardian, his antagonism melting to
patronage. "I will tell you who I am. and
then you can feel no anxiety. I am Doc
tor Chantry, physician to the Count de
Chaumont. The lad cut his head open on
a rock, diving in the lake, and has remain
ed unconscious ever since. This is partly
due to an opiate I have administered to
Insure complete quiet; and he will not
awake for several hours yet. He received
the best surgery as soon as he was
brought here and placed in my hands by
the educated Oneida. Skenedonk.'
“I was not near the lodge,” said my
father. "1 was down the lake fishing.”
“I have bled him once, and shall bleed
him again; though the rock did that pret
ty effectually. But these strapping young
creatures need frequent blood-letting.”
The chief gave him no thanks, and I
myself resolved to knock the llttlff doctor
down if he came near tne with a knife,
"In the absence of Count de Chaumont,
Thomas.” he proceeded, "I may direct you
to go and knock on the cook's door, and
ask for something to eat before you go
home.”
/ “I stay here,” respnded my fathen
“There is not the slightest need of any
body's watching beside the lad tonight. I
was about to retire when you were per
mitted to enter. He is sleeping like an
infant.”
“He belongs to me,” the chief said.
Doctor Chantry jumped at the chief in
rage.
“For God's sake, shut up and go about
your business!” .
It was like one of the little dogs in our
camp snapping at the patriarch of them
all, and recoiling from a growl. My fath
er’s hand was on his hunting knife; but
he grunted and said nothing. Doctor
Chantry himself withdrew from the room
and left the Indian in possession. Weak
as I was I felt my Insides quake with
laughter. My very first observation of
the whimsical being tickled me with a
kind of foreknowledge of all his weak
fretfulness.
My father sat down on the floor at the
foot of my couch, where the wax light
threw his shadow, exaggerating its un
moving profile. I noticed one of the
chairs he disdained as useless; though
when eating or drinking with white men
he sat at table with them. The chair I
saw was one that I faintly recognized as
furniture of some previous experience,
slim legged, gracefully curved, and bro
caded. Brocaded was the word. I stu
died it until I fell asleep.
The sun. shining through the protected
windows, instead of glaring into our lodge
door, showed my father sitting In the
same position when I woke, and Shene
donk at my side. I liked the educated
Iroquois. He was about ten years my
senior. He had been taken to France
when a stripling and was much bound
to the whites, though living with his
own tribe. Shenedonk had the mildest
brown eyes I ever saw outside a deer’s
head. He was a bald Indian with one
small scalp lock. But the just and per
fect dome to which his close lying ears
were attached needed no hair to adorn it.
You felt glad that nothing shaded the
benevolence of his all-over forehead. By
contrast he emphasized the sullenness
of my father: yet when occasion had
pressed there never was a readier hand
than Skenedonk’s to kill.
I tossed the cover back to spring out
of bed with a whoop. But a woman In a
high cap with ribbons hanging down to
her heels and a dress short enough to
show her shoes, stepped into the room
and made a courtesy. Her face fell easily
into creases when she talked, and gave
you the feeling that It was too soft of
flesh. Indeed, her eyes were cushioned
all around. She spoke and Skenedonk
answered her in French. The meaning of
every word broke through my mind as
Are breaks through paper.
“Madame de Ferrier sent me to Inquire
how the young gentleman Is.”
Skenedonk lessened the rims around his
eyes. My father grunted.
"Did Madame de Ferrier say 'the young
gentleman?' ” Skenedonk inquired.
“I was told to inquire. I am her ser
vant Ernestine,” said the woman, her face
creased with the anxiety of responding to
questions.
“Te4l Madame de Ferrier that the young
gentleman is much better, and will go
home to the lodges today.”
“She said I was to wait upon him, and
give him his breakfast under, the doc
tor’s direction.”
“Say with thanks to Madame de Ferrier
that I wait upon him.”
Ernestine again courtesied and made
way for Doctor Chantry. He came ih quite
good natured, and greeted all of us. his

inferiors, with a humility I then thought
touching, but learned afterwards to dis
trust. My head already felt the healing
blood, and I was ravenous for food. He
bound it with fresh bandages and opened
a box full of glittering knives, taking out
a small sheath. From this he made a
point of steel spring like lightning.
“We will bring the wholesome lancet
again into play, my lad,” said Doctor
Chantry. I waited in uncertainty wltn
my feet on the floor and my hands on the
side of the couch, while he carefully re
moved coat and waistcoat and turned up
his sleeves. •
“Ernestine, bring the basin,” he com
manded.
My father may have thought the doctor
was about to inflict a vicarious puncture
on himself. Skenedonk. with respect for
civilized surgery, waited. I did not wait.
The operator bared me to the elbow and
showed a piece of plaster already stick
ing on my arm. The conviction of being
outraged in my person came upon me
mightily, and snatching the w-holesome
lancet I turned its spring upon the doc
tor. He yelled. I leaped through the
door like a deer and ran barefooted, the
loose robe curdling above my knees. I
had the fleetest foot among the Indian
racers, and was going to throw- the gar
ment away for the pure joy of feeling the
air slide past my naked body, when I
saw the girl and poppet baby who had
looked at me during my first conscious
ness. They were sitting on a "blanket un
der the trees of De Chaumont's park,
which deepened into wi.derness.
The baby put up a lip. and the girl sur-.
rounded it with her arm, dividing her
sympathy with me. I must have been a
charming object. Though ravenous for
food and broken headed. I forgot my state
and turned off the road of escape to stare
at her like a tame deer.
She lowered her eyes wisely and I got
near enough without taking fright to see
a book spread open on the blanket, show
ing two illuminated pages. Something
parted in me. 1 saw my mother, as I had
seen her in some past life—not Marianne
the Mohawk, wife of Thoipas Williams,
cut a fair oval-faced mother with arched
brows. I saw even her pointed waist and
puffed skirts, and the ace around her
open neck. She held the book in her hands
and read to me from it.
I dropped on my knees and stretched
my arms above my head, crying aloud as
wdmen cry with gasps and chokings in
sudden bereavement. Nebulous memories
twisted all around me and I couiu grasp
nothing. I raged for what had been mine
—for some high estate out of which I had
fallen into degradation. I clawed the
ground in wha. must have seemed con
vulsions to the girl. Her poppet cried and
she hushed it.
“Give me my mother's book!” I stran
gled out of the depths of my throat; and
repeated, as if torn by a devil—" Give me
my mother's book!”
She blanched so white that her lips
looked seared, and instead of disputing
my claim, or inquiring about my mother,
or telling me to begone, she was up on
her feet. Taking her dress in her finger
tips and settling back almost to the
ground in the most beautiful obeisance I
ever saw, she said:
“Sire!” , '
