TRIBUTE TO GRAWT
PAID BY VEIHUNS
General Declared "Inspired
by God Almighty."
BATTLES ARE REVIEWED
Grand Army Hall Is Crowded for
Celebration of 100th Birthday
Anniversary of Soldier.
"General Ulysses S. Grant was in
spired by Jod Almighty to reunite
this country of ours. In my opinion.
no other man could have done it save
him alone. His services throughout
were so great and so eminent that we
i cannot do enough to honor his
'memory."
' J. r. Stevens, himself a- soldier In
the army of Grant, was the speaker
before a crowd of gray-haired vet
erans of the war between the states,
who crow ded the Grand Army hall in
the courthouse yesterday afternoon to
pay tribute to the 100th birthday an
niversary of their former comrade.
The service was the more impressive
because of the gathering. The men
knew their great commander and the
tribute was one of love and loyalty
to a fallen leader. Comrade Stevens
was the principal speaker.
Grant fiot Soldierly' Looking.
"I never saw but one other general.
and he waa our brigadier, Russell,
who fell in the valley of the Shenan
doah, who looked less like a general
than Grant," said Mr. Stevens.
"One day near camp we saw a man
in rough clothing seated on a log,
alone, with a half-burned cigar be
tween his fingers. . I asked a com
panlon, 'Who is that fellow?" 'That's
General Grant, our commander,' he re
plied.
"I eaid it could not be. I had seen
our General McClellan, who rode
prancing steed and who looked ever
like the moving-picture general of the
silent drama. Whenever he appeared
before his men he came dashingly to
the front and the soldiers were wont
to give three cheers for their com
mander and throw their hats high in
the air. Then a boy of 15, the very
sight of McClellan had a touch of
magic in it and in appearance he was
a general to the very life."
Disasters of Army Related.
The speaker told of the ill luck and
disasters that overtook the army of
the east before Grant was called to
high command. . McClellan, he said,
sat down in front of Richmond, so
close that the whistles of locomotives
within the city and the church bells
on Sunday mornings were wafted to
the ears of Stevens and his comrades.
Fope took command in his flam
boyant manner and the second battle
of Bull Run was more disastrous1 than
the first. Then the army was given
back to McClellan. After Antietam
the same dilatory tactics finished Mc
Clellan and President Lincoln re
moved him and put Burnside in his
place.
Fredericksburg and Mary Heights
were as disastrous as any that had
gone before and Hooker came for
ward. Meade followed and the best
that could be said of Gettysburg from
the standpoint of the Union is that
it was a drawn battle.
During all this time, it was said,
while others were blundering Grant
had been winning one campaign anter
another and his victories gave the
country great confidence in him.
Grant's Battles Reviewed.
J. G. Chambers, who fought as a
soldier in . the 40th Indiana under
Grant's command, told briefly of
Grant's battles and his high sucoess.
"Grant believed," he saidi "that
there is always a time' in every battle
when either side may win by exerting
just a little more of the power that it
has. He used this plan in his cam
paigns, exerting the maximum effort
at the crucial moment, and victory
came to his standards."
W. M. Hendershot presided at yes
terday afternoon's service. The open
ing number was the singing of "Amer
ica." and at the close Airs. Grant
Thomas sang "The Star-Spangled
Banner." There was music by the
G. A. R. drum corps and two songs by
the veteran quartet. Chaplain W. T.
Kerr offered prayer.
Last night at Milwaukie the Wom
en Relief corps of the Grand Army
presented a flair to the Boy Scouts.

generally, because of his escape from
the bear pit. the cub was captured
at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon when
a 15-foot bamboo pole, wielded by
Ray Weaver, park .keeper, induced
the cub to descend from the big tree
where he had taken refuge and fall
into a trap which had been placed at
the foot of the tree for his com'ng.
After Tony had descended he was
roped and hog-tied and removed to a
new cage with three other cubs of his
cwn size, where, park keepers re
ported later, he was boss of the gang.

Weaver thought of the barn-boo pole.

tickling of his ribs, and he lunged
downward, slowly but surely after the
pole .had been at work for a. few min

"He got to laughing so ding-busted
hard that he simply forgot himself
and ambled to earth," 'the keeper re
ported from the zone of hostilities.
Tony has been at the park about
three weeks, having been brought
here from Washington. He was orig
inally caged, with older bears, where
his company was not wanted, and he
made his escape because of his dis
satisfaction with his environment.
Now that he is with cub bears of his

perfectly contented, the keepers said
