An EFFORT is being made in Wash
ipgton to make the Internal Revenue
Bureau q separate department, inde-
pendent of the Treasury Department,
and promote the Commissioner is seat

resting place to rob and plunder the
peopleQ The additional fact that this
bill is to be saddled upon the act to
revise the tax law does not help it in
the estimation of honest men of all par.

Prussiau Discipline.

army: m .fI.r. ..r. ...... :
The renowned regiment "Koeuig"
reached tho vicinity Of tho battlefield Of
jena about IL O'Clock on the night Of tho
18th Of October, 1906, and bivouaoksd In
the nearest turnip field. The soldiers had
Just made long forced march, and their
supplies had not yet como up; therefore

open held tired and supperless, and pro-
pare themselves for the great battle Of tho

they wrapped themselves In their closks
and laid themselves down on the bare,

them were soon asleep and dreaming Of
homo and is comforts. .'.'
But among them there was ono slender
young STRIPPING Of an ensign. who In
spite Of his fatigue was 50 FAINT from hum

twelve hours without food, and ut hftecn

All around and about him grew bushels
of ripe turnips, which to tbs half famish-
sd bow seemed n, desirable rs apples OF
paradise, but he dared not touch even one,
Tor general order had just been issued
forbldding tho soldiers to lay hands on
any part of the crops in the fields whore
they were lying. 1t was true that the
taking Of one tnrnip would not constitute
very serious trespass. but he had never
infringed upon q military order In his
life, and regarded II n something sacred |;
nor had he any encouragement from tho
example of others, for not q soldier touch
ed the turnips as far rs he could see. But
this dreadful craving would not let him
sleep; and sleep he must II he was to go
into battle on tho morrow with any hope
Of acquitting himself creditably, and he

This boy, who was afterwards known
