THE SCRANTON REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY. APRIL 20, 1903. BRAVE SOLDIER Thomas W. Hoffman. DEAD End of a Man Who Was Given a Medal of Honor by Congress for Gallantry, A SPLENDID WAR RECORD Thomas Hoffman, who died on Tuesday at his home at thirteen hundred and twenty six Pittston avenue, this city, was a gallant soldier during the Rebellion and for gallantry in action, was breveted a lieutenant colonel and awarded a medal of honor by congress.

As less than three hundred of these medals were awarded to soldiers of the Rebellion, it will be seen that the service rendered by Col. Hoffman was highly thought of by his superior officers and the secretary of war. For years Col. Hoffman has been a prominent member of Lieut. Ezra S.

Griffin post. G. A. R. He was employed as a bookkeeper by the Meadow Brook Store company.

The brave deed for which Col. Hoffman was breveted was done in March, 1S65, at the capture of Lee's works near Fort Hill in front of Petersburg. Talking to a reporter some months before his death, Col. Hoffman told the story of the gallantry that won his promotion in the following words 'During the week that we were stationed at Steadman our division was ordered to capture Lee's works. I was detailed on General Hartranft's staff as engineer officer of the division.

The troops were ordered out in the middle of the night and deployed inside our picket lines. When daylight began to show on the eastern horizon a signal gun was fired. This was the signal for the attack and our troops I is advanced to the fray. They rushed across the space between the two lines, tore down the obstructions. jumped into the moat from whence they scaled the walls of the fort, cap turing four forts with twenty live guns in a space of five minutes.

We also captured a large number of prisoners. The rebels made a great effort to re take the forts, making numerous charges, but we suceeded in holding them back during the entire day. Sometime during the afternoon I was sent out by General Hartranft to the commanding officer of the second brigade to ascertain if it were possible for him to hold the forts captured. Just as I came to the forts it hap pened that my own regiment, the Two Hundred and Eighth, was deploved at this place. When I was but a short distance away I heard the lieutenant colonel of my regiment call to the men to retreat, and that they were being surrounded.

Presently he and the ma Jor of the regiment started on the run for the rear, expecting the regiment to follow. I took In the situation at glance and drawing my sword called to me men at tne top of my Don a man of you run; thev can't drive you out of here." "When the line officers discovered that there was some one to take charge of the regiment they immediately rallied the men and kept them in position. After awhile the lieutenant colonel and major came back with a rather sheep ish look. I said nothing to them con cerning their actions. The facts of the above Incident were afterwards reported to Secretary of War Stanton and after due consideration congress awarded me a medal of honor." Colonel Hoffman was born at Berrys ourg.

on JUiy zi, lJSt, and was accordingly sixty five years of age. He enlisted in Company Seventy second regiment, Pennsylvania volunteers, Philadelphia lire zouaves. Each company in the regiment represented some fire company in Philadelphia. This regiment was hurried into Virginia and Colonel Hoffman, while relating his experiences, says that the second day after his arrival there he saw a captain of theCalifornia regiment killed on the picket line. He took part In the battle of Ball's Bluff and in the following spring he was among those who advanced with Banks and went as far as Winchester, from whence they were recalled and sent to Yorktown.

A little later he took part In the battle of Fair Oaks and later in the great Seven Days' fight. His regiment opened the battle of Savage Station and suffered heavy losses; lt(was also at the Peach Orchard and later at Malvern Hill. At Antletam Colonel Hoffmanls regiment was heavily engaged and suf ered severely. It ulso founght at Fredericksburg and later at Chancel lorsvllle. In August.

1S64, his regiment was mustered out. He returned home and recruited a regiment which became the Two Hundred and Eighth Pennsylvania. This regiment served In General Butler's army, and later wa? sent to the command of General Hartranft's division. While with him oc curred the battle of Fort Steadman and later the feat of gallantry that won him his medal of honor. When the Jonas Long's Sons department store first opened In this city Colonel Hoffman hud charge of the grocery department.

Funeral services were held over the remains at the home yesterday at which Kev. Mr. Peck of Elm Park church officiated. The remains are to be taken today on the 9:45 Delaware and Hudson train to Sunbury for Interment, which will occur on Friday, D. D.

With the reception to be tendered Adjutant General Stewart of the National guard but one week away, everybody in the valley is talking of the mammoth society affair, and the outlook is that it will be the best attended society event given in this city in many years.

Work was commenced at the armory last evening by a large force of men preparing the building for the event. It will take nearly the entire week to place the decorations, for they will be elaborate to a degree. Along each side of the armory will be located private boxes and a few will be placed at advantageous places in the gallery. All told there are twenty five of these boxes and they had not been on the rnarket over three hours before they had all been taken, so great was the interest. The box holders are as follows: John N.

Conyngham, Capt. Gordon Scott. Lieut. H. H.

Already word has been received from nearly a hundred officers of the guard located at various points throughout the state, announcing that they will attend, and this alone will add muc to the brilliancy of the occasion, for all will appear in uniform. Many will wear the highly ornate full dress uni forms covered with gold lace, some will appear in the special evening dress of the army and a large numbe will wear the regulation dress uniform of blue. In addition to this many or ganizations have their own dress tin iforms and their appearance will add to the scene.

According to the plans of the dec oration committee the scheme to be followed out will be In tones of white, relieved by green and gold, a bizar effect being produced by the mingling of the national colors in a beautiful arrangement overhead. Added to this electricity will be freely used and huge crest of the regiment constructed entirely of electric bulbs will surmount the reception dias. This latter will be in the form of a peris tyle, being flanked by tall white col umns crowned with huge gold balls. This same effect will be carried out in the arrangement of the platform for the music, Many are the opinion that this is an affair' for military men alone. This is not so.

It is for the general public and inasmuch as no invitations have been issued the management again want to assure all citizens of Wyoming Valley they are welcome and all can attend who so desire. Tickets can be purchased in this city of any offi cer of the regiment, or at half a dozen stores about the city. In Plymouth they can be secured from the officers of Company I. and in Pittston George Buss will supply the want. In Nanti coke Capt.

THE PRIZES XOW OFFERED The time limit for the entries on li brary and musical competitions at the National Eisteddfod closed on tho fifteenth Inst. The large and wide spread Interest manifested in this part of the eisteddfod is a pretty sure in dication as to what can be expected in the musical competitions on 'the twenty ninth and thirtieth of May next, and It is safe to predict that those present on the occasion will hear the finest class of competition ever heard in any eisteddfod in the United States. On the musical composition contest for a prize of fifty dollars donated by the "Truth" there are thirteen com positions, among whom are some of the best song writers in the country, Tho essay, the argument for and against "The Open Shop," for which of twenty five and fifteen dol lurs are donated by the "Times," has fourteen competitors.

The short story, Illustrative of life in the coal fields of Pennsylvania, for which The Republican donates prizes of twenty five und fifteen dollars, has produced nine efforts. The Awdl, the most difficult form of Welsh poetry, has no less than eight splendid poems entered. The subject of the poem is "America," for which a prize of twenty five dollars is given. The In Memoriain, or Pryddest Goflawdwriaethol, in Welsh, in memory of the late Dr. Joseph Parry, has in duced no less than twelve of the best of the Welsh poets to compete for a prize of twenty five dollars.

The National Eisteddfod manage ment, not wishing to slight the poets who are not able to write a Pryddest, have been enabled by the gen erosity of the "Tribune" to offer prize of twenty five dollars for an In Memoriam Dr. Joseph Parry, in English, which has induced seven poets to strive for. The Englyn. or Spigram, the subject of which is "Allwedd" (a key) has pro duced the usual prolific result, no les than forty rive Englynion being in tlv contest, unese writers of epigrams are a peculiar genius, only found amongst the Welsh people. There are some in the town of ours who walk the streets with humped backs, eyes glued to the sidewalk as they shuffle along, and dream of nothing but Ensrlvnlon nil thmuerh their lives, fiivo hem a subject and they can grind them out one a minute ad infinitum, but no two can be found who can agree as to whether the metre Is correct or not, or rather, you can never get one of them to admit that they can possibly make a mistake in the writing of one, so that an Englyn is an ever ready subject for dispute.

Taken as a whole the entries on the compositions at the National Eisteddfod this year are of the highest order of merit and have not been by any means confined to the Welsh people. The National Eisteddfod association deserve not only the thanks, but the hearty support and co operation of every citizen of this community, anil it is to be hoped that the sirpport and patronage given them on the twenty ninth and thirtieth of May next will be such as to encourage them to still greater efforts, and It is not beyond the possibility that their next eisteddfod will vie with that of Wales in its scope, comprising painting in oil and water colors, etching, carving in wood and stone, needlework, embroidery. No greater argument can be brought forward as to the beneftelent results of 'the eisteddfod than a comparison of the number of orchestras and full brass bands that are in existence now in Wales. Twenty five years ago there was only one really good brass band in Wales, the Cyfartha, at Nurthyr Tydfil. Whenever such town as Cardiff, Neath or Swansea gave an oratorio they were compelled to get their orchestra from Gloucester, or Bristol, but such a state of affairs is past history now.

There are no less than seventy recoe nized hrass I Easter Oxfords The fashion leaders are here in the ELITE FOR MEN at $3.50 and $4.00. and the COLUMBIA FOR WOMEN at $3.00 and $3.50. Scranton agents for these style correct and perfect fitting shoes. II cGAffl 'S The Store of Lowest Cash Prices. 441 443 NORTH MAIN AVENUE.

9 bands of undoubted standing and ability In the principality. In no place on earth are the great oratorios given oftener, nor more artistically, than in Wales, and each town of any size is able to provide its own orchestra for such performances, all of which is directly traced to the inducements offered by the eisteddfod. Thirty years ago it was an unheard of thing to find a AVelshman occupying any of the chairs as professors at the universities of Oxford or Cambridge; in fact, most of these positions In the preparatory colleges of Wales were filled by Scotchmen or Englishmen, but now the positions are changed. Welshmen are filling tho chairs of learning not only at Oxford i and Cambridge, but at Glasgow and Edinburgh as well, and these changes can be almost invariably traced to the influence of the eisteddfod. That the news of the National Eisteddfod is becoming more widespread than ever is pleasing to the management.

The New York papers some time ago gave space to its programme in its entirety, and this piece of news can be fully appreciated by tho papers here, and is an undoubted endorsement of the National Eisteddfod as an educator. This Welsh festival of literature and song has been given In many large cities in the United States. In Den ver, a few years ago, the festival lasted four days, and the average attendance wi3 twelve thousand. In Salt Lake City the attendance was eight thousand, and the eisteddfod lusted four days. Very large audiences have been had in Chicago, Milwaukee, Cin cinnati, Scranton, Wilkes Barre and Utica.

Scores of other towns and cities hold such festivals every year. Ex cept in the state of Vermont and in Utica, N. the eisteddfod is conducted in the English language. These few of many facts which might be given, show how largely the eistedd fod has became Americanized. A no table Instance is in tho Brooklyn eisteddfod, held by the Arion society about two years ago, when the Scran ton choir, under the leadership of John T.

Watkins, took the one thousand dollar prize and the Dr. Mason Glee society of Wilkes Barre, under the leadership of John Lloyd Evans, won the male chorus prize. Here's Looking at You! When in a convivial mood, drop in and see us. We'll treat you right. Everything we serve is of the best.
