' The Last Man 's Toast
ryHE Last Han is going to open his -bottle of wine and
drink bis last toast.
On July 21 Charles Lockwood, the only survivor of
Company B, First Minnesota Volunteers, will stand at
a table in a hotel dining room in Stillwater. Minn., and
carry out the pledge that was made 44 years ago.
( At that time there were 34 living members of Com
pany B. They bought bottle of Burgundy and put it
in a safe, pledging themselves to hold a reunion each
year and toast their departed comrades; and they agreed
that when only one man was left, he should open this
bottle and toast the others.
I Now that time has come- Lockwood, who is 89, is
the survivor. Newspaper and moving picture camera'
jnen will stand by as he opens the wine turned to
tigegar, iong, since and sips it in memory of the men
ho have passed on.
There is something unusually appealing about this
teremony. For Lockwood is not only the one remaining
member of the famous Last Man's Club; he is, in a way.
a symbol the incarnation, for all of us, of the Civil War
.veteran. .
I We shall not have these veterans a great deal longer.
North and south, they are going away with tragic swift
ness. Each Memorial Day finds their ranks thinner. Of
the more than 2,000,000 men who went to arms in the
Civil War, only a few scattered thousands are left.
But somthing remains, for us and for this gallant old
Minnesota veteran. Memories and a tradition.
For us, who were born long after the thunder of the
war had died away, it is chiefly the tradition. Our "old
soldiers" have colored our national character for a gen
eration. They have been a standing lession in patriot
ism; a constant reminder that the Union which means so
' much to us was bought and maintained at a heavy price.
We have been a better people because of the presence in
pur midst of these men.
But for Lockwood, one imagines, it is the memories
that are more important-
The nan must be living in a world of shadows.
Company B went' to war after an all-night dance in
Minneapolis, a part of Minnesota's first volunteer regi
ment Half of its members fell at Bull Bun, and a good
hare of the remainder went at Gettysburg. All up and
down Virginia's dusty roads they marched, for four long
years. Then it all ended, and there were long years of.
peace with the old comradeship, symbolized by this
pledge, to bolster one up.
He doesn't, probably, need our sympathy. To be
sure, he is old and he is alone, and death isn't far away;
but he has known true comradeship, and he has been a
part of something great, and when he drinks this last
toast he will be toasting all of the men, of both armies,
.who have gone on to whatever reward it may be that
awaits good soldiers. And it may be that thisold chap
looks ahead, not to a lonely grave but to a- reunion,
with a distant bugle call to rally the ghosts of Com
pany B.
Drink to the troopers who die, while I
Drink to the troop that never shall die!

Michael of Rumania la the first

is in only one to bare been
king and suffered exile; the little
csurerttch of Russia was mur
dered In 1818; Print Frederick
William s chances of ascending
tba throne of Prussia are slim;
tha former Queen Elisabeth of
Greece lives in exit with her
mother, the dowager queen of
Rumania. But there are other
great-grandchildren of Victoria
In Spain and Sweden and Nor
way who future looks brighter,
though on never can tell, this
king business Is s tricky.
Thar there are Victoria 'a grand
ehlldren. The kaiser Is in exile
and tha Csarlna Alls of Russia
was murdered. But George of
England and Maud of Norway
and Victoria, of Spain and Marie
ot Rumania have never bad any
trouble about keeping their
crowns on tbeir beads. And we
need not wastne much sorrow
over young Michael.: When a
boy of 8 is the only chap in the
country to hare lost a kingdom.
It must be great temptation to

There Waa a Red Flag
Mr. Fish waa kind .noutb. to
telephone your correspondent
and point out that tha committee
had discovered tbst th red flag
had actually been flown over the
University ot Chicago, aa Father
Edmund Walsh had testified.
There bad been considerable con
fusion over that pete ot testi
mony among th commltte mem'
bars, who proposed to keep It
out of th record, and also In
th mind of yonr correspondent,
who reported that the committee
had tound there waen't any red

But the University of Chicago
now admits IL The assistant to
the university's president has
written to Father Walsh, -noting

admits that the flag Incident
wasn't an especially hot piece ot
