Few If any officers of the Unltel

' thins; more than a- quarter of a century

V Boll Telegraph.
Before coins1 to the Arctio lieutenant
2 Oreely had built thousands of miles Of
.1 military teiegrapn lines in xexaa ana
i the southwest and had acted as an of-1
floor of the signal corps, then under
command of Brigadier General Albert J.
Myer. The latter organised tne corps,
whloh was afterward commanded by
Brigadier General W. B. Haien. and
later following the death of General
Hasen, In 1888, by the returned Arctic
hero, who had been made a captain in
tne regular course or regimenuu pro
motions in th fith cavalry.
General Greely had the distinction of
being the nrst man wno emerea uie
Civil war as a private soldier to be pro.)
mote a to tne rana or origaaier general.
He waa born in Newburyport, Massa
chusetts, March 27, 1844, and received a
common scnooi eaucaiion. in iboi,
when but a few montha over seventeen
years of age, he enlisted aa a private
- ana oecame a memoer oi ins nynriu
Rifles. Ureeiy continued with his com
mand until March, 1883 when a call waa
made for non-commlssloned officers to
officer the colored troops then being or
. ganlsed. Sergeant Greely waa one of the
number to respona, ana was commis-
, stoned aa first lieutenant In the Eighty
fifth United States Colored Infantry. He
served with this command until the fall
of 1866, rising to the grade of major.
He entered the regular arm as a see
' ond lieutenant In March, 1867, and waa
promoted to first lieutenant In 187S. Aa
evidence or tne slowness oi promowun
In the army at that time Is the fact that
he served thirteen years aa a first lieu
tenant before securing promotion, and
during that period attracted 'the favor
able attention of the world by htfl ef
forts to gain new knowledge of th Arc
tic zone.
Untiring Worker.
Between 1876 and 1879 youna- Greely
proved himself to be one of the most
untiring workers In the army. During
that period he constructed 2,000 miles
of military telegraph In Texas, Montana
and Dakota. This unprecedented feat
made hlrh a marked man in American
military circles. Then came the expedi
tion to the far north. In 1881, In pur
suance of the recommendation of the
.Hamburg international geographical
.congress, he was given command of the
, United States expedition to establish
one of a chain of thirteen clrcumpoiat
stations. The trying experiences of
Greely and his little band are wail
known to all readers of history.
. During and after the Spanish war
General Greely had a further opportun
ity to show his great ability as a build
er of telegraph lines. Under his Im
mediate direction there were built and
operated 1.000 miles in Porto Rico, 3,800
miles in Cuba; 2500 miles In Chins dur
ing the Boxer outbreak and 10,500 mllos
of linen and cables in the Philippines.
lie afterwards Installed a system of
3,900 miles Of telegraph lines in Alaska,
one of these lines being the first wire
leas system to be put to commercial use.
One of General Greely's most brilliant
"achievements wan the reorganization on
Its present efficient basis of the nation
al weatner bureau, l-revioua to nis in
cumbency the service was of a moat
crude and untrustworthy character. He
began at once to gather meteorological
data from every reliable source, and in
the course of time he was able 1;o arrive
at something definite. He established
a complete system of weather stations
in various parts of the country and
lifted the service from the plans of
ridicule to that of responsibility. .
Prior to going to the command of
Dakota General Greely was In command
of the military . division of the Pacific
and In this position he directed the
V army relief measures at toe time or tne
jsjsjan Francisco earthquake and fire.
