of war for the past three months is a soldier of practical eiperln/ . ence. Robert Shaw . ollrer - * bo wears JT'®* the title of "genera!" on account of his position In the New York militia. Is a regular army officer, who gave up his career as a military man away back In 1S6S because of the almost hopeless outlook for promotion. He was about to attain his captaincy, after having seen hard fighting In thi civil war. but took the advice of a Vriend and resigned. Had be remained In the service he would undoubtedly hsve been s major general to-day. The argument advanced vo him and which led to his resignation was put to him in this way: "There is a big hump ahead in the army. You will grow old as captain of a company of men. Yon may reach the rank of major. and If you stay In the army you will likely die as a major. A business career offers more attractions. Should there be hostilities you can get beck in the army again with just as good a rank as though you served contlnuSometlmes Oen. Oliver regrets that he did not remain In the army, especially when he sees a brother officer, a. captain In the Eighth cavalry when Oliver was a Am lieutenant In the same, now on the retired list as a lieutenant general. This officer is Gen S. B. M. Young, the predecessor of Gen. Chaffee In command of the army But Oen. 0}iver has had many consolations for the sacrifice of his military ambitions. He came of a military family, especially on his mother's side. She was a Shaw In t line that hvi been famous In New England for three or four generations. Oen.
