"Within the Law," Bayard Velller's
gripping new play which the Ameri

young woman, forced against her will
into questionable pursuit, successfully
applies to the underworld methods
alleged to have been used by Wall

building operations. In the play the
young woman defies punishment by
the authorities, although she breaks
the law at will, remaining, however, j
always "within the law'' by employing ]
its inequalities and technicalities as a
hleld for her illegal endeavorers. The I

A Spring
Vacation
Most stomachs need a rest after the heavy work
of the usual winter diet.
What is needed is easily digested food—food
that furnishes plenty of nourishment, but with least
tax upon the digestive organs.
i
Grape-Nuts
is that kind of food!
Made of prime whole wheat and barley, it con
tains all the rich nutrition of these food grains, and
by long baking is partially predigested. It comes
crisp, delicious and ready to eat when the package is

GENERKL SICKLES.
DIES IK NEW YORK
_
[Continued From First Page]
— i
and the last rites of the church were
administered.
When news of the General's condl- |
tion was communicated to Mrs. Sickles |
she insisted on going to his house and j
taking immediate charge of him.
From the time she entered .the house
until he passed away she remained at
his side and directed the trained nurse
who had been employed by Doctor
Spann. Before the end came General
Sickles had made such reparation as
was in his power for the years of ne
glect and rancor that characterized
his relations with his wife.
Miss Eleanor Earle Wilmerding,
who had been the General's house
keeped for fifteen years, was buried
on Lincoln's birthday. The present
Mrs. Sickles was the General's sec
ond wife and was the daughter of a
Spanish councillor, whom he married
while he was Minister to Spain in
1871.
I General Daniel E. Sickles had a lons
anil varied career. He was born In
New York city. His grandfather, who
was of Knickerbocker stock, retained
the name of Van Sickles, but the fath
er of the General dropped the prefix
and the name, which was distinctively
dutch, was thus Americanized.
Daniel Kdgar Sickles was graduated
from New Work University, and in
184G was admitted to the practice of
law. As soon as he became a member
of the bar he gave much of his time
to politics and the militia. He was
sent to the State Assembly by Tam
many Hall, and in 1853 he was chosen
corporation counse*. The life of a
soldier had always appealed to him,
and the young lawyer joined the
Twelfth Regiment National Guard as
a private In 1849. In three years he
retired from the organization as a
major, llis appointment as First Sec
retary of the Legation of the United
States in London, in 1853, took him
away from this country for two years.
On his return he was for a time a
State senator, and from 1857 to ISGI,
was in Washington as a Democrat of
the House of Representatives.
Was a War l>eni<M'rat
Rumors of war had been heard
many times in those four years, and
the General, on account of his wide
acquaintance with the Southern mem
bers, realized, as comparatively few
did, that the nation was on the verge
of a long and < cstly struggle.
General Sickles was prominent <is a
Democrat at the outbreak of the war,
and had not voted for President Lin
coln. He said, however, that Mr. Din
coin was a strong and able man, and
he went to him and offered his ser
vices. The President immediately ac
cepted them and asked him to go to
New York to raise regiments, a task
which the General performed with
singular success. Throughout the war
General Sickles enjoyed the friend
ship and confidence of Mr. Lincoln to
a marked degree.
Raised a Regiment
The beginning of hostilities found
him in New York raising the Excelsior
Brigade of five regiments at his own
expense. He even paid the mainten
ance bill of these regiments for sev
eral weeks before they were mustered
into the service of the United States.
Thus was formed the first body of
United States volunteers as distin
guished from those who enlisted under
the banners of the States. The wis
dom of huch a method of enlistment
appeared all the more as th-; war ad
vanced, for there was no such compli
cations In the handling of the troops
as developed among State organisa
tions. The soldiers signed for three
years, although there were men in
the North who really believed lhat
within ninety days the fighting would
be all over.
Mr. Sickles was made colonel of the
regiment, later designated as the Sev
entieth New York. His zeal and abil
ity went hand in hand in bringing
about his advancement. He was a I
brigadier general of volunteers in 1861!
and a major general of volunteers a
year later, and was retired several
years after the conclusion of peace
with the full rank of major general In
the regular army, with which he had
remained.
Lost Leg at Gettysburg
His military record touches the
great battles of the Civil War and is
connected with every Important cam
paign. He was In the Peninsular op
erations, he was at the head of a
corps In the Army of the Potomac,
he achieved distinction for his bravery
in action on the field of Antietam,
Chancellorsville and Fair Oaks. He
was In the thick of the fight at Gettys
burg, and In the second day of that
battle lost his leg.
Around General Sickles' name one
of the bitterest discussions regarding
the battle of Gettysburg has waged
for years. Did he err in the encounter
of the second day In advancing l.is
troops beyond the lino to which Gon
rral Meade had assigned bim? It lias
been called an egregious error, {ireoipi
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
fating tho bloody conflict on the Peach
Orchard; It has been termed a mo.'o
which saved the field to the Union
force. Lieutenant General Longstreet,
of the Confederate army, his adver
sary on the field, wrote General Sickles
on September 19, 1902, as follows:
On that field you made your
mark that will place you promi
nently before the world as one
I of the leading figures of the most
Important battle of the Civil war.
As a Northern veteran once re
marked to me, "General Sickles
can well afford to leave a leg on
that field."
I believe that it is now conceded
that the advanced position at th.!
Peach Orchard, taken by your
corps and under your orders, sav
ed that battlefield to the Union
cause. It was the surest and sad
est reflection of my life for many
years, but to-day I can say, with
sineerest emotion, that It was and
Is the best that could have hap
pened to us all, North and South;
i and I hope that the nation, re
united, may always enjoy the hon
or and glory brought to it by that
grand work.
Praised by Slierldan
And Lieutenant General Sheridan
made the following statement in 18S0
to Major Tyler Prundle, of the Twen
ty-eighth Massachusetts Volunteers,
and to Lieutenant L. Edward Jenkins,
of the Second Massachusetts heavy ar
tillery, both residents of Boston:
I examined Sickles' position of
the battlefield very carefully, and
I have no hesitancy whatever in
saying that under the conditions
in which General Sickles found
himself on that occasion he could
have done nothing else but rnovi
out as he did when he met Gen
eral Longstreet's threatening ad- '
dances,, and If he had not dono
so there would have been no third
day at Gettysburg and General
Meade would have been forced off
hl3 position on his left flank and
would have been forced to with
draw the army to his Pipe Creek
position, where he first intended
to fight the impending battle.
The Killing of Key
Few men of note in the present gen
eration had a more romantic or tragic
family story than General Sickles. In
the public eye the most memorable
of the incidents in this tragedy was
his slaying of Philip Karton Key, son
of Francis Scott Key, the author of
"The Star-Spangled Banner."
Sickles, stalwart, handsome, ambi
tious, was in 1858 corporation counsel
of New York. His timbitlon led him
to tho study of Italian and Spanish to
tit himself for diplomatic service. He
met and married Theresa Hagiola,
daughter of an Italian music teacher
to the most fashionable New York
families. Theresa was only J7 and
was accomplished in the knowledge
of language and feminine graces of
the, times. On his return from the
Court of ,st. James, where he had
been secretary of legation, Si Okies was
sent to Congress.
It was in Washington on an after
noon in February, 1859, that the Ke.'
tragedy occurred. Key was a young
man of equal brilliancy with Sickles.
He held the post of United States dis
trict attorney and they became in
separable companions, to be found at
clubs and at the hotels, and Key grad
ually became the third person with
Sickles and his wife when they figured
at White House and legation recep
tions.
An anonymous letter that aroused
Sickles brought out the truth that Key
na'l fascinated the beautiful, vivacious
Italian woman who, front a quiet life
in New York, had been suddenly
brought forward with all the charms
into the polished, brilliant society of
the capital. Sickles found a rendez
vous that Ki y had arranged in a
house in an obscure section of Wash
mgton, which he had rented and where
a discreet colored servant was care
taker. He forced a written confession
from his wife, stripped her of her
marriage and engagement rings, and
sent for her father to take her away.
On the following afternoon. Sunday,
General Sickles from the windows of
his home, saw Key signaling to his
wife to come out and accompany him
for a walk. The woman's frightened
face appeared at the window; her
quick signs of refusal told Key noth
ing. I-ie continued on his way to the
intended rendezvous. Armed with two
deringer pistols and a revolver. Sickles
followed him. He passed the White
House into old Lafayette Square, drew
ahead of his victim, and then crossed
the street in front of htm. A few
words passed between the men and
then Sickles fired upon his opponent,
killing him.
Acquitted of Murder
The trial of Sickles which followed
divided their friends and a large part
of the American public into two hos
tile camps—those who found pallia
tion in Sickles' act and those who de
nounced him as a murderer. After a
trial lasting for twenty days Sickles
was acquitted. Then arose more dis
cussion when it became known that
he had forgiven his wife and again
received her into his household. The
woman died a few years later broken
by the tragedy and the social ostracism
that followed it.
General Sic kles' found his second
romance while representing the United
States at the Spanish Court. He won
and married the Daughter of a Span
ish Counsellor of State and niece of
(the Marchioness of Novaliches, the
Countess of Santa Isabel and Mistress
| of the Robes at Queen Isabella's court.
A son and daughter were born of the
marriitge. Stanton Sickles has been
in the diplomatic service of the United
States at Madrid, Athens and Paris.
The daughter, Edna, is now Mrs. Cra
chenthorpc, wife of the Secretary of
the British Embassy in Vienna.
Separates From Second Wife
General and Mrs. Sickles parted in
Paris in 1881, their differences arising
over General Sickles' desire to return
to America ;.nd take up a political
li-e and his wife's wish to remain in
Spain. After 27 years, however, the
couple were reunited by the approach
ing death of the old soldier.
The closing years of General Sickles'
life were filled with vicissitudes. He
inherited a fortune, estimated to be
as high as $3,000,000, from his fam-
Have You Had the Grip?
There are certain disorders, such as'
the grip, that especially debilitate and j
make the body an easy prey for mora,
dangerous diseases. Ask those who!
have had the grip regarding the pres
ent condition of their health and most
of them will answer: "Since 1 had
the grip I have never been well." Thev
still have profuse perspiration, the
persistent weakness of the limbs the
disordered digestion, shortness of
breath and palpitation of the heart
caused by the thin-blooded condition
in which the grip almost always leaves
Its victim after the fever and Influenza
have subsided. They are furthermore
at the mercy of relapses and of com
plications, often very serious, in n n
attack of the grip there is a rapid
thinning of the blood and not until
tho blood is built up again is com
plete health restored.

11l April last he was called upon
to in up a deficit of between $27,-
000 anil $32,000 in moneys appropriat
ed to the New York Ctate Monument
Commission, of which he was chair
man. It was as a result of this com
plication that General Sickles was
practically besieged in his Fifth ave
nue home, appearing in a window un
der an American flag and defying
Sheriff Harburger and his assistants of
New York county.
The closing days of the warrior's ca
reer were further darkened by charges
of his son that he had spent sums ap
proximating several millions and was
in debt; the imminent sale of his
curios and relics on a judgment for
$8,200; difference with his wife after,
it was reported, she had pawned her
jewels to save his effects; a move to
foreclose a mortgage on his home for
SIIB,OOO and to dispossess him, and a
suit by his daughter to recover $50,-
000 said to be due her. Currounded by
such embarrassments as these and the
efforts of his family to relieve him.
General Sickles passed his ninety
third birthday. Through all of it he
was still the warrior, facing his diffi
culties with an indominable spirit. And
through it all none was more keen to
defend his stand at Gettysburg nor
more sensitive to the fact that the old
war enmities had twice caused his re
jection for membership in the Loyal
Legion.
HOW FRENCH PEOPLE
