The World's Greatest Tribute To l.ee.
By Field-Marshal Viscount Wolsely.
Every iocident in my visit to (ien.
eral Lee is indelibly stampet1 on nn
memory. I have taken no spt ci il
trouble to remember all be sitiil ti
me then and during subsequent con
versatioiis, andjyet it is still fresh in
my recollection. But it is uutunil
it should be so, tr he whs the ablest
general, and to me seemed the.gi eate-ii
man I ever conversed with; and yet
I have had the privilege of meeting
Von Moltke and Prince Bisnurck,
and at least upon one occasion had
a very long and intensely inteiestini;
conversation with the latter. lien
eral Lee wis one of the few men who
ever seriously impress d and aed
me with their natural, tl eir iuhe eni
greatncs3. Forty years have conn
and gone since our meeting, yet the
majesty of his manly b.a in?, t ti
genial winning grace, the sweetins
of his sinih and the impressive
dignity of his oM fashioned ttv le of
address, come b&'jk to me a:iunr-''
the most cherished of mv reeollee
tions. His great in s niiiL mo hum
ble, and 1 never felt my own i'i
dividual insignificance more k-iii!.
than I did in his pie.-enee. ilu
was a beautiful cliaraeter, and l
him, it might truthfully be wri t-u:
"In lighten inoss he did judge a i
make war."
Wululng Their Business.
A western paper reports the fol
lowing: The other day a local mer
chant happened to see a farmer r. -ctiviug
some goods at a freight oiliui
at the ilepot, and noticed thai thev
came from Sears, Roebuck & Co!,
mail order house. He noticd that tin
goods were right in his line and tin
same he has carried in his store loi
years, .'le immediately approached
th" farmer and said: "I could have
lold you every article you have then
for less money than you paid th
Chicago house and saved you mone
besides." "Then why diden't yoii
Bay so!" answered the farmer. " "I
have take two county papers for a
year and have never seen a line a
bout you selling these goods. Seats.
Roebuck & Co., sent advertising
matter asking for my trade they
got it. If you have any bargains
why didn't you put them in the
paper so we can see what they are?
That ended the argument and
the merchant went to corral other
non-advertising merchants and ex
plained to them that Sears, Roebuck
tc Co., was ruining their business.
