Head of the Exposition Is a Public Spirited Citizen. John G. Milbura, president of the Pan-American exposition, is one of the leading members of the New York state bar, and his fame as a graceful, eloquent and forceful speaker is as wide as Ihe nation itself. A close ap proach to the American ideal citizen, not only as regards his life and abili* ties, but in personal appearance as well, Mr. Milburn makes a picturesque and notable chief executive of the Pan-American exposition. He was born in Sunderland, England, Decem ber 14, 1851. When 18 years old he came to this country, beginning the study of law at once in the office oi Wakeman & Watson, at Batavia, N. Y. He was admitted to the bar in 1874. In 1879 he became a member of the firm of Sprague,. Milburn & Sprague, of this city, a business arrangement which continued until' 1882. The next year"Mr. Milburn spent in Denver, but on his return, in 1883, he became junior member of the well-known firm of Rogers, Locke & Milburn. Mr. Mil burn has always been conspicuous in .public-spirited movements, and ren* dered the city most valuable. service as a member of the charter revision .commission. What He Needed.

He tjame near beings pinched as a disorderly charac ter at the Baltimore & Ohio station the other riight becausfe hedidn'thave thii cinching habit with him at the time, says the Washington Post. A newspaper fripnd of his in New York—the two had been pals on the Chicago papers a numbei* of years ago —wrote to him abdut a week ago, ask ing him if he wouldn't meet his wife and little boy and put them up over night at his (the Washington news paper man's) house, presided over by his own attractive young spouse^ The New York newspaper man's wife and boy were to travel from .Chicago to New York, and. he didtn't want them to unduly fatigue themselves on the way. The Washington man had never seen his old' friend's wife the mar riage had taken place after the two men had separated company in Chi cago. But the New York man wrote in his letter: "The kid's got red hair,. just like mine, and as for my wife, you'll know her as soon as you see her. Just pick out the prettiest woman of 25 that gets off that train, and if she's got a small boy with her, them are the ones." So the Washington man went doiwri to wait for the train from the west. Among the fir$t of the passengers to debark was a charmingly pretty little woman of 25 or thereabouts, who an- view, the description the Washington newspaper man had got of his friend's wife. She clutched a small, nice-looking red-haired boy by the arm. "This is something easy, for a fact first people off the train," muttered the Washington man to himself, and he got ready to be a whole lot courtly -when the lady and the little boy passed through the gate. When tney squeezed through he approached them, and, raising his silk lid with all kinds of a sweep, he said, banteringly: "Well, madam, Harry wrote that all I'd have to do would be to pick out the—er—most charming-looking lady to alight from this particular train, but I did not expect my task to be so overwhelmingly easy." uSir-r-r!"

He looked around, and the big cop had him nabbed. "D'ye t'ink ye know th' loidy or wot?" inquired the cop. Meanwhile the good-looking young woman and the small boy had moved away, and, just getting off one of the far cars, the Washington man saw another young woman and a small boy. They proved to be the right ones, the cop was told about how it hap pened, and' the newspaper man says that the next time he speaks to a woman he doesn't know, under any circumstances whatsoever, he'll buy for everybody that sees him do it. It la Dangerous to Graap It When As cending or Oe»cending the Stairs. "I have no doubt whatever," said a well-known Chicago physician, the other day, "that many contagious dis eases are communicated through* grasping the stair railings or banisters in our office buildings, and the theory certainly has common sense to back it. People who are in good health very seldom use the hand rail in mounting a flight of stairs, but those who are sick or week are quite apt to need its assistance. If they happen to hav* some contagious disease, especially some form ol eczema, the next person who comes in contact with the rail stands an excellent chance of catch ing it. I have treated several people for skin diseases in my private prac tice who first showed signs of the mal ady on the palms of their hands, and I am convinced that stair rails were the source of infection. Of course the jan '.itors of all public buildings ought to see that the rails are frequently washed down, but janitors are like everybody else—they occasionally for get things. There is a historic exam ple, by the way, of the readiness with which certain forms 6f eczema may be transferred through such an agency as I suggest. During the siege of Toulon Napoleon, who was then a sublieuten ant of artillery, is said to have snatched the swabbing rod from a clumsy gun ner and helped serve the piece himself for several rounds. The gunner hap pened to have an unpleasant skin dis ease'and the sublieutenant was an em peror before he got rid of it." First sFatent on Matches. Before 1883, when wooden matches with phosphorus were made in Vi enna, people were dependent upon flint and steel to secure a Jight. The first patent for' a phosphorus match in the United States was taken out in 1836 by A. D. Phillips, of Springfield, Mass. For many years people refused to use them, but by 1845 the ill-smelling and clumsy old tinder boxes were generally discarded and are preserved, like snuff boxes, as curiosities.

Hfforti of the Owner of a Library to la dace Shermaa's Soldiers to Sparest. In his paper of reminiscences of "Sherman's march to the sea," read .before Wisconsin commandery, Mili tary Order of the Loyal Legion, Judge F. H. Putney told some good stories of that noted strategic movement* in which several Wisconsin regiments were engaged, says the Milwaukee Sentinel. The fact that he was en abled to protect temporarily the library of William Gillmore. Simms from destruction is an interesting one, although the library subsequently shared the fate of other venerable and historic South Carolinian homes "that had sheltered Greene, or Corn wallis, or Tarleton." Judge Putney was a lieutenant in- the Twelfth Wis consin infantry during Sherman's march. He says: "I was riding on ahead of the col umn with another staff officer, as our custom was, for the purpose of get ting to the camping ground before nightfall, so as to look it over, by day light and be able to "guide the regi ments to their places, when I noticed a plantation house near the road with all its buildings unharmed- and its dooryard free from squads of foragers. As we came abreast of the place, a gen- ing came hastily out to the road and besought me with most appealing looks and words to give him a guard for his property. I answered briefly, and probably coldly, that I had no guard to give him, and that he would have to take his chances. Upon that he renewed his entreaties more urgently, and asked me who was the general in command and where he could find him. He added that he was sure any gen eral would protect his library from de struction, at the same time waving his hand toward a detached one-storied frame building near the house. A sep arate library building, 25 or more feet square, on a remote plantation piqued my curiosity, and I asked, him his name. "Every man who is old enough to re member the pleasure which, in the-fif ties, 'Richard Hurdis' and 'Border Bea gles' and their author's other stories gave the reading boys, will understand what a thrill of excitement and inter est ran through my veins as my in terlocutor answered with a bow: "'William Gillmore Simms, sir.' All my indifference vanished instant ly, and his hopes rose perceptibly as I told him of the joyful days and nights which the creations of his' pen had brought me in my faraway Wisconsin home. His heroes had. been as real to main my teens as are the great cap- WANTED A GUARD FOR HIS PROP ERTY. tains of the Wilderness and Atlanta to the youth of to-day, and I told him that I owed him a debt of gratitude which I would be gkid to try to pay. "Very soon the head of the column came up, and I went at once to Gen. Ewing to report the reason of my delay on the road and to intercede for Mr. Simms and his library. On learning whose place it was and the nature of the owner's request, the general or dered guards to be detailed and placed there, but to remain only until the brigade had passed, and then to report to their regiment. The general then explained to Mr. Simms that he would have to seek like favor from the next following brigade, and so on until all had passed. Haying done what I could in return for the many happy hours given some years before, I bade Mr Simms good-by and rode rapidly on to make up for the time I had w-aited there. I confess I did not feel v'ery sanguine that his books and buildings would escape unscathed, and so when some years after the war I read that they were all burned I was not sur prised, but I was singularly grieved that they were so unfortunate as to be in the pathwayof the war." A Newspaper Cnrloalty. The greatest hardships of war arc always realized by the people whose homes and other possessions are in cluded "within the area of actual hos tilities. For these there are not only the-suffering and bereavement which come from the casualties of battle, but also the losses, privations and other hardships going with the ruin and devastation caused by hostile and contending forces—the invasion of homes and the despoiling of property. We are reminded of thc&e things by a. unique and valuable reminder of the condition of affairs in the southern states during our civil war, which a friend has placed in our hands, says Leslie's Weekly. It is a country news paper printed on a strip of highly dee orated wall paper. The newspaper is the Natchitoches Union, of Natchi toches, Xa., dated November 6, 1863'. It appears from the leading 'para graph on the editorial page, in which the editor apologizes for having "come again" before his readers with, "an illustrated edition that this was not the first issue of the Union with a wall paper backing. The "illustra tions," which consist of rosebud de signs in high colors, are certainly very striking, although they have no obvious connection with the text, which: is far from being- rose colored in tone and sentiment.

On July 12, while we were at drill, it was announced that Gen. Jubal Early had raided through Mary land and had attacked Fort Stevens, about six miles north of the 'white house. "We marched rapidly toward the fort, the men in a state of great excite ment. As we arrived near the top of the 'hill in the rear of the fort we passed a carriage drawn up. on the side of the road, under cover of the bank.. In this were seated Mrs. Lin coln and two children, and standing near were a lieutenant and several or derlies. I beard Mrs. Lincoln ask the lieutenant to send forw-ard for Mr. Lin coln. This surprised me very much, but in a moment we went fbrward to the fort, filing to- the right and oc cupying the rifle pits to the Ayest of the foi-t, our right resting across the Sev enth street road, which is the first on the right of Fort Stevens, and which passes the soldiers' home. •'To understand the situation it must be remembered that Fort Slocum was on the right of the Seventh street road. As we marched past Fort Stevens I saw President Lincoln sta'nding on the par apet of the fort with a naval officer, on one side and an infantry officer on the other. The guns of the fort at that time were slie'ling the confederate lines, already deploj-ed for attack, fir ing particularly at a house from which the confederate sharpshooters were keeping up a strady fire. Mr, Lincoln did not seem to heed the minie .balls flying about, so intent was he on watch ing the effect of the artillery fire. "Standing on the parapet, he was a ^•ood fciark for the confederate sharp shooters, and one ball, passing between his legs, struck in the rear of the fort. The infantry officer called the presi dent's attention to this close shave, and advised him to retire. The presi dent replied: 4I want to see if you can hit that house.' In a short time the house took fire from oui* shells,,and was destroyed. Then President Lin coln, erect and cool, passed out ofthe fort down toward his carriage, and his bearing was such thai my men, who were cringing under the fire, s'tood straight as he and marched to the rifle pits like veterans." WITH GRANT AT LOOKOUT. What the General Said Jn«t Before the Famons Charge lp the Monatain. I was an orderly on Gen. Grant's staff, writes Congressman Freer, of West Virginia, in Success, and was sent one day with dispatches on .his fine little black horse, loaned me for the occasion. As I returned with the replies I rushed around a bend in the road into what looked like a full brigade of the enemy. I wheeled and started to run for it, with, it Seemed to me, every "reb" in the lot shoot ing at me. My horse was shot, and I went flying over his head. I land ed on all fours, and continued on my wray in this position, as I had neither time to get up nor desire to be a more conspicuous mark, until I got around that bend in the road. Then I made a record-breaking' time to our camp. I ran up, all covered with blood and dust, and handed my dis patches, to a "lieutenant, who gave them to the general. After reading the dispatches, the great commander turned and looked me over in his quit way, and said: "Give*this.orderly another horse." I heard Gen. Grant say to Gen. Thomas, just before the famous charge up Lookout: "If we don't win this fight, I know one general who will lose his shoulder-straps." He looked keen ly at Thomas, as he said.it in his quiet, tearnest way, and, turning on his heel, walked to his tent. There had been some friction between them, owing to Gen. Grant's superseding the other general in the full command. Its Probable Effect. "If people were only compelled to practice what they preach!" sighed the theorist.
