GEXBRAi. A. W. GREELY, who -w ill
soon assume command of the De
partment of the Columbia, Is one
of the most renowned military officers
of the present day. and has probably
been of more actual service to the Gov
ernment In a general way than any man
now living. He la the only Civil War
veteran who has reached the fank of
Brigadier-General In the Regular
Army, and in addition to being a splen
did all around military man and officer,
has been of inestimable service to his
country through his Arctic explora
tions, as a meteorologist, as a Signal
service officer, and as the author of
many valuable books' and documents.
It is probably through his Arctlo
explorations that General Greely, then
a Lieutenant, became most widely
known, and the rescue of his party
from Cape Sabine in 1S84 by Command
er W. S. Schley was an event in which
the whole world was Interested. In
1S79 the International Geographical
Congress, which met as Hamburg, rec
ommended that 13 circumpolar stations
be erected in Arctic regions, and In
1KS1 the United States Government ap
pointed young Lieutenant Greely to
command such an expedition. With a
party of "5 men find a ship provisioned
for three years, he started for Lady
Franklin Bay, on the northeast coast
of Grlnnell Land. During the two
years spent in that section the party
wintered at Discovery Harbor. the
Commander sending small expeditions
across the straits into Greenland and
also into the unknown regions of Grln
nell Land. One of these parties reached
a point farthest north that had
been attained at that time, being lati
tude 83 degrees and 24 minutes, and
others made valuable geographical dis
coveries, and recorded extensive meteoro
logical observations.
The return south was begun In August
of 1KK.1. and that "Winter was spent at
Cape Sabine, where all but seven of the
party of 25 perished of starvation and
cold. Efforts were being made to reach
them with relief expeditions, but none
succeeded until the one headed by Com
mander Wintield Scott Schley reached
them in June of 18S4. For his services
to geographical science General Greely
was awarded the Founder's Medal of the
Royal Geographical Society of London
and the Roquet te Medal by the Soclete
de Geographle of Paris, and his Govern
ment promoted- him to the rank of Cap
tain. V. S. A.
President Cleveland appointed Captain
Greely to succeed General W. B. Hazen
as Chief Signal Officer on the death of
that officer in 1S87. giving him the rank
of Brigadier-General.
Puring military operations abroad from
1WS to 1902, there were built and operated
under the personal direction of General
Greely thousands of miles of telegraph,
cable a.nd wireless systems. Tn Porto

ference In London, 1903; of the Interna
tional Wireless Telegraph Conference at
Berlin in 3903 and 1900. As an author
he has a long list of books and docu
ments to his credit, many of them being
of greatest value to the various Govern
ment departments as records. Among the
books he has written the best known In
clude 'Three Tears of Arctic Service"
(2 volumes), written In 1SS5; "American
Weather" (1S90), "American Explorers
and Travelers" (1S94), and "Handbook of
Arctic Discoveries" (1R9RJ. " '
General Greely Is .nearly 63 years of
age, having been' born March 27, 1844 In
Newburyport, Mass. He enlisted as a
private in the Nineteenth Massachusetts
"Volunteer Infantry, and served with his
regiment throughout the Civil War, re
ceiving two wounds. He received the
brevet of Major and was mustered out in
1865 and appointed Lieutenant of the Reg
ular Army in 1887. The following year
he was detailed for service In the Signal
Corps, and ten years later began the erec
tion of extensive military telegraph sys
tems tn the Northwest and Southern
states. His career has been a long and
distinctive one, and one of which the
United States is justly proud. Although
now advanced In years General Greely is
hale and hearty. He will retire next
year when he reaches the age limit of 64.

MAGIC LANTERN TEACHES
Bishop Scadding TJses It to Good
Advantage in Lectures.
To realize that the maglo lantern
Is no longer a toy to amuse children,
or to entertain the long-suffering; pub
lio at street obrners, one has only to
attend the lectures on church history,
which Bishop Scadding Is giving Wed
nesday .nights at St. David's Church,
and on Friday nights at Trinity
Church, Nineteenth street.
Bishop Scadding uses the lantern as
an instrument for imparting religious
knowledge. He Introduced his subject
hy saying-: "The antidote to both ig
norance and prejudice Is Information.
It is the object of the lecturer to pro
vide this antidote. God has done a
great thing for us In giving us & pure
branch of the Catholic Church from
the earliest times. As churchmen we
desire -to trace our lineage bac.lt.
The large picture shows the same family
as the small one, the latter being a reduc
tion of the one printed a week ago."
The father has joined one of Eilers Co
operative Clubs, during the past week, and
is realizing some of life's pleasures.
This family is typical of a great many families that are represented in the piano sales that have been made in
the week just passed at ,
FIT FRS
PIANO
USE
It is really remarkable to note the difference in the countenances; in the general bearing and disposition of a
family before and after buying a piano. A musicless home is a desolate spot. Where once the father read the
evening paper and then went to bed; where the mother finished the dishes and retired; where the boy and girl
romped with worn-out toys and pet kittens until tired, and then were " tucked away"; all these things are
changed as in the "twinkling of an eye." In the evening now the very joy and happiness of life is brought out
under the benign influence of music; the children feel the fervor of song; the inspiration of the great masters;,
their lives assume newer and nobler aspects. Even the head of the family, himself, feels the uplift which his
busy life had never permitted him to experience before; while the tired mother sees the joy of her children
and is happy. .Verify, music has brought 4his family into, larger touch with those great energies that are bom
of harmony and melody.
WHY NOT AVAIL YOURSELF OF THIS OPPORTUNITY AND JOIN ONE OF.

dealer pays at the factory. The terms
are easy. There are no club dues; no
initiation fees, and every cent that you
pay into the club goes toward paying
for the piano that you select for your
hpme AVe can tell you of still many
other advantages.

WASHINGTON, CORNER PARK
through- the reformation and medieval
days to the primitive church, and to
the Apostles. It Is to show how this
tracing back is done that these lec
tures have been arranged."
The subject of the first lecture was
"From the Roman Conquest to the
Mission of St. Augustine." from B. C.
65 to A. D. 697. Beginning with the
worship of the Druids and the Rpman
conquest of Britain the bishop passed
on to the birthday of the church at
Pentecost In Jerusalem. He discussed
various Christian legends. The Anglo
Saxon invasion was also dealt with,
and by means of a clever diagram -the
bishop Illustrated how the Jutes, the
Angles, and the Saxons came over to
defend the British against their North
ern enemies, and then liked the coun
try so well that they stayed, and over
ran the country, introduced their pa
gan xeliglon and their savage prac
tices and drove the early British
church into Wales, Cornwall and Ire
land. On the Island of Iona the early
British thrived and developed a strong
missionary spirit The founder and
early missionary died there in 597 the
very year in which the Italian mission
under St. Augustine landed at Canter
bury. After showing how the rude
Anglo-Saxons were -converted to
Christianit by the British missiona
ries working down from Iona, and the
Italian missionaries working up from
Kent, the bishop closed his lecture
with an interesting description of
characteristics of Saxon architecture.
These lantern lectures are free, and
the general publlo is cordially invited.

The initial entertainment of the new
Milwaukie Glee Club -"was held in the
