HERE A YEARLING CORPORAL
demanded Mr.. Young's presence at drill,
and be had to leave The drill that fol-
lowed was amusing The plebes were di-
vlded into squads and placed in charge of
cadets, who put them through their fac
lngs in the most relentless manner. The
cadets seem to vie with each other in see
ing which can be the most severe and ty-
rannlcai driil-master on the ground. The
poor plebes get frightened nearly cut of
their wits at the stern commands and the
sharp raprimands that inevitably follow

Curious Conflict Between Soldiers cnd
Citizens In Kansas
Some time since a man named Sander
son was arrested in Ellsworth county on O
charge Of stealing eleven mules, or in
trade par ance, eleven-twelfths of dozen
mules, which were the property of Uncle
Sam. His bail was fixed at So 900, and he,
exercising the right inherent in American
citizens, proceeded to en- Joy his liberty. -
Last week, however, it is alleged that his
bail was raised to 81 OOO.. and the Deputy
United Safes Marshal, armed With due
and proper prOcesses, prOcee ded to rear
rest the private Jayhawker, and to claim
aforesaid additional security from the mule
fancier This bail was promptly given,
aud Sanderson again breathed the free air
Of the plains. AS he shifted the oxygen
laden breeze, thoughts not forgiviDg and
Christian like took possession of his soul
and be stated audIbly that he would put
q head" on the United States officer who
had second time placed him in an un-
pleasant situation. Nursing his wrath un-
till an opportune moment, he did proceed
to place an emlneDce disagreeably painful
on the head of the aforesaid officer as they
by chance met at one of the fashionable
saloons Of the frontier city. In fact the
Marshal, it is alleged was severely punish
ed.
Last Sabbath morn, however, the third
arrest OF SandersOn took place as he slept
serenely unaware Of the dire presence of
the officer. This time he was taken on
charge Of assault, and conveyed to Fort
Harker, out procured from the city au-
thOrities q wit of habeas corpus The |
it is alleged, attempted to evade |
the execution of the writ by running the |
prisoner off. Citizens in large numbers,
jealous of the civil rights, followed the
guard who had taken Sanderson to Brook
Vile, aud thereupOn a detachment Of forty
troops were sent down to Brockville, to
strengthen the guard. The United States
Marshal also called to arms the citizens of
Brookville, to aid the Government in the
of OF the prisoner, against the
violence Of his friends from Ellsworth,
who were forming in large force. At
Brookville the contending forces met
Ellsworth rs. Brookville and the United
States. Short, sharp and decisive was the
'OnHIct; but strategy won. and SandersOn
md two of the most fiery and determined
rlends, were captured and conveyed to
Topeka to be tried, and the war is over -
