Nupnteon'i Conqueror.
' The time may perhaps come when,
war buinjra thin of tho distant past,
the successful general, through whose
efforts a country ts victorious over IU
enemies, will not receive the applause
and praise of men. At present, how
ever, we ar3 far from this state, and
no man now receives greater honor
than he who has led a winning tight.
Of m n who In modern times have
been Hum distinguished one of tho
greatest was Arthur Wcllesley, Duke
of Wellington. Certainly he was tho
greatest soMier Kngland has ever, pro
duced and iie of her finest men.
Arthur Wellcslcy was born May 1,
ITii'.t, In Ireland. From early life ho
was destined for the career of a sol
dier an I wns given a military educa
tion in France at the College of An
mr. In 17" he entered tho English
army r.n I. a few years later, first saw
actua'. service In tho puke of York's
nnny In Holland. In 17H(! be went
to India with a compinyof soldiers
uinler his command, where his broth
er, the Mar.jtils Wcllesley, arrived
shortly alter as (iovernor General.
The I Irst Victory.
It was here that the young soldier
won his Hist v.clory. It was during
the Muharatta war. and with only a
handful of men he came across a
lar.e force of the enemy. lie com
pletely overcame them, thus securing
the brilliant victory or Assage. The
victory of Atgauni followed and the
fort of (lawulgluir, supposed to be al
iii st lm)i'cgnable, alo capitulated
to Wcllesley. For this he received
honors at home, was made Knight
Commander of tho Path and Clue!
Secretary of Ireland. He also won a
seat In the House of Commons and
was publicly thanked by that body
for his -ci vices.
The next scone of this great sol
dier's triumphs was Spain and Por
tugal, whither ho w. nt to assist In
the expulsion of the French. The
battlesof Vimlcra and Talavera freed
Portugal from tho French dominion
and Wcllesley n. w turned his atten
tion to Spain Puring this campaign
he won tho battle of Salamanca over
Soult, one of his most brilliant vic
tories, and finally pursued the French
army Into Fiance, lie leceivcd sev
eral titles from the Kngllsh govern
ment for these victories, the hint be
ing Puko of Wellington, and largo
grants of money were made him.

career was this special honor paid
ti 1 in. As a crowning glory nfter his
Spanish campaign Wellington was
made Held marshal of Kngland.
The Held or Waterloo.
In July, 1814, Wellington was ap
pointed ambassador to France, and
iu that capacity went to the Congress
of Vienna. While this body was sit
ting Napoleon escaped from Elba,
and tho sessions were broken up. It
seemed probable that Napoleon would
go to Belgium, and to this country's
defense proceeded an army under
Wellington and one from Prussia un
der Dlucher. Tho battles of Llgny
and Cjuatre Bras were succeeded,
Juno 18, IMS, by tho great engage
ment of Waterloo. It was undoubt
edly tho greatest battle in modern
times. The invincible Frenchman
and tho undaunted Englishmen met
to try conclusions, and on the Issue of
that contest, it Is not too much to
say, hung tho fato of tho world. To
recapitulate tho events of that mem
orable day, to show how tho French
forces were gradually forced to yield
until victory was no longer possible,
would take too long in this place,
There was no question that tho vie
tory was in the hands of tho English
and Prussians, and that the French
were no longer to be considered the
conductors of the world.
After tho battle Wellington
marcho l on Paris and thero, at the
renuest of tho allied sovereigns, re
malned for three years In command of
tho army of occupation. Honors
without measure were showered on
Wellington by tho English Govern
mentj largo grants of money, an es
tate, and various high ofllces were
presented to him, while the allied
forces gavo him medals, decorations
and orders.
YVeUlncton't. Political 1. 1 fa.
In 1827 Wellington's political life
In England began, and early In the
following year George IV. called on
him to form a . ministry. Though a
member of the Tory party, It was to
Wellington's credit that he was the
first English premier to yield any-
thing to the Liberal side. The test
and corporation acts, which bore
hardly against non-members of the
Established Church, were repealed
and the removal of Catholic dlsablil
ties, another outrageous measure,
&m ft
his liberalism, would not giro bis 1
consent to reform Parliament, and
this caused a strong feeling against
him and he was forced to resign. Ia
1834 he was again offered the prem
iership, hut declined, though he ac
cented the foreliin portfolio under
Sir Robert Peel. He resigned this
ofllco In a few months and hencefor
ward took no prominent part In the
civil government of the country.
The rest of Wellington's life was
passed less before the eyes of the
people. He held many distinguished
posts to bo sure and hU advocacy of
the bill repealing the corn laws In
184.) did much to pass tho measure,
but still ho sought privacy even more
nnd more. September 14, 18.VJ, he
was Rclz.cd by an apoplectic At, very
suddenly, and In a few hours hs was
dead. All Kngland i-ouht to honor
him In his funeral, which was a most

On the barren, sandy "Landes in
the south of France tho sheep and
pigs do not live In clover, nor does
tho shepherd faro luxuriously. Tho
people are full of queer notions. They
assert that potatoes cause apoplexy,
that milk Is unhealthy, that wheat
bread spoils the stomach, and that
onions, garlic and ryo bread a week
old In their country is the best and
most healthy diet. Tho shepherds
walk on stilts, eat on stilts, and if
they do not sleep on stilts they rest on
stilts for hours together by means of
a stilt rest. This is a long, stilt-like
stick, having a creseentrlc curve at
