4AGE SIX
TH CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 191 2.
LATE MAJ. GEN. O'REILLY
SERVED IN MANY WARS.
Ha Introduced the Policy of Compul
sory Inoculation In the Army.
Major Gcncrnl Itotort Mnlthuiu
O'Kcilly, V. S. A., retired, who died re
ccntly In Washington, wns surgeon gou
cral of tho United BUitcs army from
1002 until 1009, physician and close
pcrsonnl friend of the Into President
Grovcr Cleveland nnd the only medical
ofllccr of the regular nriny who held
the rnuk of major gcncrnl.
lie was tho Hon of tho late John
O'Reilly of Philadelphia and was tori)
in that city Jan. 14, lSiri, his nncestors
having been of distinguished Irish
stock settled In Pennsylvania before
the devolution. General O'ltcllly was
not n "West Point graduate, but received
his education and medical training at
the University of Pennsylvania, where
bo was n student toward the end of the
civil war. Leaving the university, he
wns appointed for civil war service on
Jan. 7. 1801. as u medical cadet, nnu nt
the close of the war returned to tho
university to complete his studies. In
1807 he entered the regular nrmy as
assistant surgeon and passed through
the various grades until in the fall of
1002 ho was appointed surgeon general
of the army, with tho rani: of brigadier
liv former President House-
velt.
It had been General O'Reilly's pleas
ure in recent years to bo nblo to point
to tho fact that his appointment to this
office wns made solely on his record
President Koosevelt never met General I
O'lJeilly, who nt the time of his ap-1
polntinent was stationed in caiuornia.
nnd Insisted that the appointment of a
now surgeon general, who should have
charge of tho health of the army,
should be based only upon the record
of the appointee.
It was about that time In 1002 that
General O'ltcllly lost through death
bv tvphoid fever his only son, the late
Philip Maltlaud O'Reilly, who had Just
been graduated from tho Naval
academy, and it was because he lost
his son through this malady that Gen
cral O'lteilly decided that ho would do
en"- thing in his power to contribute
toT'-d cutting down the death rate
from typhoid fever in the army It
was under his regime that tho expert
monts with the antityphoid serum
were conducted by tho medical corps
of tho army, and General O'ltcllly in
filKted, when the medical staff reached
the conclusion that the antl-typhold
Forum could be safely and efficaciously
administered, that the compulsory in
oculation of soldiers with this serum
bo introduced into the army.
After the civil war General O'Reill.v
saw hard service as medical officer in
the field with troops in the Indian
campaigns, and during tho war with
Snnin he was chief surgeon of tho
Fourth army corps. lie was a mem
ber of tho evacuation commission at
Havana nt the end of tho Spanish war.
During the strike troubles of 1ST"
around Baltimore, Pittsburgh and
other railroad centers General O'Reilly,
then a captain nnd nsslstant surgeon.
was with the regulars sent to those
places.
DEMAND LOWER RATES.
1,362 Montana Business Men Ask Re
turn of $500,000 Excess Charges.
A petition has been filed with the In
terstate commerce commission which
constitutes a record In tho history of
the commission in two respects. It
contains tho name of l,.rG2 separate
complainants, business men of Mon
tana, and It demands reparation In the
Bum of sr.00,000.
The complaint is directed against the
Northern Pacific railway and seventy'
five other carriers, operating between
tho Atlantic seaboard and tho Rocky
mountains. It attacks freight rates on
all classes and commodities ns unrea
sonable, exorbitant nnd discriminatory
and a reduction of from 2S to GO per
cent demanded, according to tho char
acter of tho articles transported.
Damoges in tho sum mentioned aro
demanded for alleged excessive charges
on shipments during the years 1010.
1011 ami 1012.
CORRECT TIME BY WIRELESS.
Arlington, Va., and Eiffel Tower to
Gend Out Signals.
Wireless telegraphy will be brought
into play shortly to establish the exact
time at points in Europe and America
at tho same moment For tho first
time it will be possible to precisely es
tablish the longitude of Europe and
America when signals are sent out
from the powerful station at Arling
ton, Va., and tho Eiffel tower In Paris.
It is expected that this will bo accom
plished about tho inlddlo of November.
At present Washington trends out
American time. Commander Hough at
tho international time conference stat
ed that an error was being mado of
one-thousandth part of n second. Ex
act time has been fixed only three
tlmes-in 1SG0, 1S70 and 1S72.

I Thanksgiving Day
Among
Li Jt ia )$ j
The Lumberjacks
p
REPARATIONS for the Thanks-
giving dinner in the lumber
enmps of Maine begin early in
November. Traps for tho rab
bits, which form the principal dish, are
set In place and carefully baited.
Men who go to the lumber enmpg
about tho lKt of October glvo up the
hopo of having chicken or turkey or
goose with cranberry sauce on tho Inst
Thursday of Novomlor. In fact, there
is not one man In n dozen who go
into the woods for tho winter, unless
ho has a family in some small town,
who enrcs a snap for any other dish
for Thanksgiving than good old fash
ioned rabbit potpio or stow. With tho
trimmings such as only a cook In n
Malno lumber enmp is able to concoct,
the meal is far better tlinn some of
the meals served in tho big hotels of
thr cities.
The "cookie" for tho first few days
In camp doe little more than hunt out
the haunts of bunny and after locntlng
ns many as arc in reasonable walking
distance of the camp proceeds with his

l'llKPAItATIONS UIIOIN EARLY.
work of slaughter. Most of tho rab
bits make their winter home under low
scrub bushes of hard wood und hunt
for food under the dead leaves which
have been blown from the trees during
the fall frosts. These mounds of
leaves are jtirt the place to conceal tho
strands of wire and horsehair to be
used as snares, and it is Indeed a wise
rabbit who can escape the trap.
A liberal supply of whole corn and
oats is used as halt for the rabbits,
being scattered under tho leaves in
close proximity to the snares. The
wire Is run for some distance along the
surface of the ground and is then at
tached to the strand of horsehair with
a loop and running noose lu the end.
In this noose more corn or oata are
placed than anywhere else, and the
rabbit luvarjably spends much time
over a few kernels of the grain. It is
while thus loafing over his food that he
meets his doom.
After breakfast has been served in
the camp and the men have gone to
their work the "cookie" commences his
rounds of the snares. Never does ho
have far to go from tho starting place
to find one or more bunnies carefully
nosing through tho leaves and select
ing tho choicest pieces of corn. So at
tentive is the animal in his quest for
food that he seldom notices the ap
proach of tho hunter or any one else
unless there bo a dog In the party.
And while thus eating the hunter
crouches under somo tree at the far end
of the wire and at the opportune time
culls the "string" which catches the
"DON'T FORGET
1 i IB' I I ) ill
rabbit on nil fours. After that it Is
but easy work to dispatch tho animal.
The trap Is then rcbnltcd, nnd the
cookie" continues his journey to tho
next snare, and so on until he hna mado
the round. At the camp tho rabbits arc
hung head down on tho outstdo of the
camp, where they freeze nnd nre kept
In good condition until the day of tho
feast. The night beforo Thanksgiving
the nnlmals are tnken down from the
peg, thawed out n bit beforo tho camp
fireplace and their pelts removed. Aft
er being cleaned tho moat is thrown
Into a big kettlo with n liberal supply
of onions, potatoes, carrots and other
vegetables and nllowed to simmer over
a slow fire.
The dish when served with n side
dish of dressing nnd n mug of cider
with Just a bit of edge on Is hnrd to
be beaten by any culinary artists.
Almost as good as tho rabbit stow Is
tho plum pudding, which tho cook
takes palus to hnvo extra good on
Thanksgiving dny and Christmas day.
Unlike the pudding of thnt kind, It Is
made with fresh bread, molasses and
all the plums tho mixture will stand.
It la put in tho oven early In tho morn
ing and allowed to remntn until ready
to be served ns n course with tho
mince or apple pie, piping hot and full
of tho elixir of life.
Of course tho baked beans must be
served on Thanksgiving day, but they
aro cooked Just n little bit better than
those doled out during the week. They
nro served for brenkfast The beans
are picked over nnd tho poor ones re
moved the evening previous to Thanks
giving nnd after being allowed to re
main In salt cold water for a short
time aro put In a big kettle with plen
ty of pork and burled in the ground on
a bed of glowing hardwood coals.
When one rolls out of his bunk in tho
morning, shivering just n bit from tho
cold, a big dish of the smoking baked
leans Is found on tho table. Besides
the benns, there will bo brown bread
such as canuot be constructed In any
other part of tho world, somo cold
cream of tartar biscuits, molasses and
dried apple sauce. Besides, there aro
plenty of tea and coffee without milk,
but which Is good enough to keep out
the cold until early In the afternoon,
when tho Thanksgiving dinner is
' served.
I It was not very many years ago that
woodsmen thought it necessary to navo
a haunch of venison or moose moat for
tho holiday's principal meal, but thnt
time is past, and now it is rabbit pie,
baked beans and old fashioned plum
pudding. Sew York "World.
Thanksgiving.
Now wo feast.
So did the pilgrims.
Now we take in football.
Then they dodged hostile Indians.
Now the hostess thinks up novelties.
Then they wero pleased to have plen
ty of plain food.
Now we revel in asparagus, arti
rhokes, peas and celery.
Then onions, potatoes, turnips and
r.ibbages were their vegetables.
They were thankful, devoutly so.
Are we?
Thanksgiving Day.
With grateful hearts let all give thanks,
All lands, all stations and all ranks.
And the cry comes up along the way.
For what shall we etvo thanks today?
For peace and plenty, busy mills,
"Tho cattle on a thousand nius;--For
bursting barns, wherein Is stored
The golden grain, a precious hoard;
Glvo thanks.
For orchards bearing rosy fruit.
For yleldlns pod and toothsome root
And all that God declared was good
In hill or dale or field or wood,
Glvo thanks.
For water Ijrlsht and sweet and clear,
A million fountains far nnd near;
For gracious streamletB, lakes and rills
That flow from everlasting hills;
Glvo thanks.
For summer dews and timely frost,
The sun's bright beams, not one ray lost;
For willing hands to sow tho seed
And reap the harvest, great Indeed;
Give thanks.
For hearth and homo, lovo's altar fires;
For loving children, thoughtful sires;
For tender mothers, gentle wives,
Who fill our hearts nnd bless our lives;
Glvo thanks.
For heaven's care llfo's Journey through.
For health and strength to daro and do,
For earB to hear, for eyes to eco
Eurth'a beauteous things on land and sea,
Give thanks.

JUST AVIIAT THK TERM
HORSE l'OWKK MEANS.
Very few people realize Just what
a horso power, as expressed in en
gineering terms, really means.
When it is stated that tho world's
largest Curtis steam turbine, which
drives an electric generator in the
Watershed station, New York, de
velops 30,000 horso power tho mean
ing is vague and incomprehensible,
imagine this term reduced to man
power and almost everyono can
grasp its full meaning, ir it taite3
twelve men to equal one horse pow
er then this mammoth turbine en
gine develops 12 times 30,000 or the
working energy of 300,000 men. If
these men worked in eight hour
shifts each day It would require tho
services of 1.0S0.000 men every
twenty-four hours to produce the
working energy of this singlo tur
bine unit.
