fashion OF wearing nothing at all on the
left arm and shoulder.
Miss Ada Parker is girl Of nineteen,
who lives on cotton plantation two miles
from Monroe, La. For the last four years
she has had exclusive charge OF the place,
upon which her widowed mother, sister
and two younger brothers reside, support
inc them all by her industry. She is her
own oyerseer, supervising ali work done in
person, and no brawny son Of Ceres knows
better how to raise crop or handle labor.

there was stipulation that, in considera-
ton Of the reduced rate Mt which 1t was

He brought an action for damages Post

road Company and was defeated. On
the appeal, the judgment was affirmed.
The Court, in the opinion, said: Every
railroad las right to adopt rules and
regulations for the management Of its
business, provided such rules are not un-
reasonable, are within the scope Of the cor
poration's power and not in conflict with
The laws OF the State. The question
whether rules are reasonable or not is a
mixed question OF law and fact and is 10
be determined by the jury, under the In
struction OF the Court. A regulation OF q
railroad, providing for cheaper rates Of
fare between certain points, provided the
ticket is used alone by the purchaser and
within certain number OF days from the
date Of issue, is reasonable and proper.
The purchaser gets the benefit OF cheaper
rates, while the railroad company, being
advised OF the number Of tickets out, is en-
abltd to provide accommodation without
inconvenience.

nnirers and GenlIelnen.

A man who bears commission In the
army or the navy OF the United States is
supposed to be ian officer and q gentle
m,n." His commission makes him an Of
ticer, but 1t requires something more to
make him gentleman. He may be OF
polished manner, respectful to his superb
ors, courteous to his equalp, kind to bis in
ferioB-without which he could not be a
gentleman.
But other things are expected Of him.
He must be attentive to duty, or he draws
nay without rendering an equivalent, and
that is not fair business transaction. He
must be honorable in any dealings he may
have with brother officers and others. And
now we came to two other important con-
alterations. Whatever may be said Of
other men drinking to excess or playing
at games OF chance for money, the army
officer can not do either and be gentle
man. To get drunk or gamble is to break
his contract with the government. which
las placed him on his honor, and that Is
not to act the gentleman.
Disbursing officers, for an obvious rea-
son, are especially forbidden To gamble,
for the brain that is heated at the card
table is always in danger Of confusing the
nice distinctions between mine and thine.
This was the trouble with Paymaster Was
son, who has been dismissed the service,
sent to the penitentiar;, and sentenced to
have his disgrace hlpzoned in the public
prints Of the State ffUm which he was ap-
pointed The charge upon which Colonel
Ilges is to be tried is more disgraceful, II
that can be. He not only brings odium
upon the service, but he does 1t in man
ner the most revolving. Officers are in the
habit Of getting advances from money
lenders, formally on certain pay papers,
really on their honor. nges is charged
with duplicating these papers without
stint-selling the same thing several times
over, as often as he could find a customer.
Dishonor can not be ranker.
In spite Of these celebrated cases, and
others which are OF record, the army is
mainly made up Of honorable men; and
again, in spite OF this truth, there is an in
ordinate amount OF drinking and gambling.
That this is tubversive Of disciplined that its
effect upon the morale is bad, that defalca-
ton and duplication Of accounts are the
natural results, needs no demonstration.
The evil is great; so much more reason
why it should be dealt with, and promptly.
BY vigorous measures the Government can
bring about reform. 1t can rely upon the
cooperation Of the Officers and gentle
men," whose self interest no less than a
good disposition will arouse them to save
their honorable profession from disrepute.
Generally the dishonest officer is read
oui; unfortunately he Is not invariably
kept out. Political friends, personal friends
with influence at Washington, importuni-
ties Of various kinds and for various rea.
sons too often work the restoration OF men
who have forfeited their commissions and
never out to be taken back. And no dis
honorable man ever Is taken back without
injury 10 the service.
