ILURKING nANGER

Wichita Beacon: They had a magni-
icent reunion OF veterans at Topeka.
Kansas shows up strong in the way of
old soldiers. Lots of them came out to
grow up with the great central COM
monwealth. The old veteran in a few
more decades will be only historical
reminiscence, and his reunions will
haye to be held upon another. plane.
But the young veterans will take his
place, and as the old veterans have been
prolific the young veterans are much
more numerous than the old veterans,
consequently the great crowds are vet
TO come i'm reunions.
The old veterans are sticklers for n
strong government: They love the old
flag and an appropriation. Will the
young veterans stick by the old flag and
an appropriations
If we did not respect and honor the
man who risked his life for principle
and to save his country we. would be
lacking in self respect-but we fear the
influence Of organized and perpetuated
old veteran associations upon the future
man. Europe is military camp and a
despOtism, largely upon the principles
involved in veteran!sm. Take away the

esprit du corps, take away the teachings
of the army, the discipline, the subordi-
nation and obedience to external author
ity, the dependence upon direction and
leadership, take away the awe of the
officer and the sanctity that hedges in
the general and his staff, and there is
not a government in Euprope that would
last year. The army represses the
aspirations of the people and subordi-
mates the man TO his master, the king.
Here lies the danger and the menace
OF a standing army; and yeteranism
that looks to government for daily bread
is only modified form of the military
principle.
The strength of the army is the meas
ure of the danger that threatens the
peace of the man. If the army is doubled
1t is only because the greater danger
threatens the man. So we can see that
final social salvation is not in the army.
The army with its education is the main
stay of the police system, but it is bad
system for che man.
When a man goes into the army lie
leaves his individuality behind him
the best part of him. He becomes only
part of Co. a, Co. A is only part of
the lst regiment, and that is lost in the
brigade, that in the division, that in the
army corps, that in the grand army and
that in the commander-in-chief. We
say that Grant saved the country and
we worship him. We are not certain,
but we think there is an internal danger
lurking in veteranism and the man will
yet feel it, if he does not now.

A QUEER CALLING.
Chasing the Pipe-Line Scraper-A SinRu
lar Industry.
GOlean (N. " Letter.Jl

lOiCuh IN III LotIerl
One of the m any odd callings which
the production and pips-line tran,por-
tation of petroleum have made neces.
sary, is one known as Chasing the
scraper." Crude petroleum is run from
the oil regions TO the refineries at the
seaboard, a distance OF 80 miles, in
iron pes. 1t is forced over the high
hills that intervene by powerful pumps.
Much of the way it runs by it's own
gravity. These pipes are constantly be .
coming clogged by sediment and paraf-
fine. To clean them out an iron stem.
two feet and a half long, to which are
attached circular steel scrapers, fitting
loosely in the pipes, is placed in the
pipe at regular periods. This is forced
along 9 line by the pressure of the oil
behind it. 1t is necessary to keep
track of this scraper, in order that it's
exact location may be constantly
known, so that if it Is stopped by any OBJ
stacie it may be readily scovered and
the obstacle removed. The noise made bv
the scrsper against the iron pipes as i;
moves along their interior would not be
heard by an unframed ear, but certain
employees of the Pipe Line Company are
able to low it on its journey by the
noise, and never lose its situation. These
men are the sCraper chassrs. They are
stationed in relays three or four miles
apart along the lin. One chaser will fol
low up and down mountains, across ra-
vines, and through streams and swamps
until he reaches the end of his section.
when another man takes up the chase and
follows il until his relief is reached, and
so on until the course of the scraper is
run. The work is one Of hardship and
danger, owing to the character of the
country through which miles OF the pips
line is lad If chaser by any mfshap il
thrown of the track Of the scraper, and it
becomes clogged before he can recover its
position in the pipe. the cutting Of thel ipe
for long distances is frequently made pec-
essary, that the missing object may be
found-a work that Is accomp4 ried by
much expense and labor.

Sun City Union: w. l.. Cox, on Tur-
key creek, discovered parties Tuesday
evening helping themselves to his feed
in a manner known to the law as steal
ing. He mentioned the fact to them
that he didn't particularly desire every
immigrant passing through the country
to size up his feed as public property,
and extended a cordial invitation to the
parties directly interested to desist.
The pirates considering they had a ma
jority in the convention, tried to run a
bluff. and opened fire upon Mr.. Cox.
Cox realizing that shooting was game
at which more than one could play,
rushed into the house and got his Win
chester. and returned the compliment.
The immigrants realized they had awak-
ened the wrong passenger, and, i'm the
language of the day, pulled their freight
in double-quick order.

The fate of the unfrocked priest.
Jardine, of Kansas City, is a curious
one. lie came out of the penitentiary.
out of the darkness, as it were, into the
ministry, and has now gone into the
shadow again. He seems to have
gained nothing by his hypocrisy-if
that was it-during the years he was a
clergyman. He found neither wealth
nor extended popularity in the clerical
profession, and if he entered it to secure
better opportunity to crafty the pro-
pensities of a libertine, he does not
seem to have been greatly successful in
that line. The man seems crank with
vicious propensities, which he has not
the moral strength to control even be-
fore the altar.-Atchison Champion.

Why Is a dram-drinker's nose red? is
answered by DIR. Johnson, of Washing
ton, ID. c.. who says that the dram
drinkers heart beats about thirteen
times oftener in the minute than the
heart OF one who does not use liquor.
The arteries, in consequence of this in
creased heart action, carry the blood to
the nose quicker than the veins carry it
back. The blood, therefore, remains
congealed in the Over-filled vessels of
the nose and face.
