Signal Corps and Weather Bureau.

To the Editor Of The EVENING STAR:
Their seems 70 be an impression that the men OF
the Signal corps are utterly opposed to remaining
in the Army. such is not the case. IL Is that the
men are paid and treated as soldiers, when they
perform no military duty OF any character their
work being purely scientific and clerical. As Gen.
sherman once said, s'they are neither soldiers nor
clerks" which explains the present status or the
corps. The bill recently presented by Gen Greedy
is good one and Will Improve the corps But
what Is TO become OF the men who will not be on
the permanent roll, and who have spent some
OF the best years OF their life In the corps hoping
from year 20 year that something would be done
10 improve their position? The important and
arduOuS duties OF an observer OF the signal Service
those duties were better understood Congress
would undoubtedly ind some relief for an iptelli-
gent and hardworking body OF men. Separate the
Weather Bureau from the Signal Corps, but let
both remain in the Army. Form signal Corps
proper from picked men, place those officers who
have won their promotion and who are not I'D In
meteorological work, at the different military posts
as Instructors OF The Signal Corps, and the ARMY
Will soon have an expert signal Corps such as all
well equipped armies must have. Let the
weather Bureau be confined strictly to scien-
tine work, and require its personnel to be-
come thoroughly familiar with the science
OF meteorology. This plan would result In
giving the Army an expert Signal Corps and the
simple with better results In each. At present
only about 90 per cent OF the men OF the signal
Corps have been instructed In signalling and
about 20 per cent are incompetent TO perform
duties pertaining TO observing and disseminating
weather reports. OBsEKyER

Congregational church was completely filled
with the pupils and friends Of the late Prof T. A.

began TO give forth soft low sounds In minor KEY
The tones had swelled into prelude OF sorrowing
notes when the pall-bearers appeared at the door
OF the churcn with the remains As they slowly
passed up the west aisle the students and grad
yates were greatly affected, but the sound OF
soooing was hushed as the mourning family fol-
lowed their beloved dead. When the rnourners
were seated the head OF the column OF High School
cadets entered with draped coiors ana filed into
the side seats that had been reserved. This was
one OF the achievements OF Mr.. Pauis life, this
corps OF cadets. and their slow and steady step
added 10 the impressiveness Of the ceremony.

The street was Paved.

But THE YOUNG MAN LOST HIS SWEETHEART NEVER
THELEss, AND OTHERS ENJOY THE BENEFITS OF
THE CONCRETE.
There is sometimes bit Of romance woven into
the hard facts OF everyday life, an instance OF
which, In connection with the paving OF a street
IN the northwest section OF Washington some time
ago, was related to STAR reporter the other day.
on this street lived pretty dark-eyed maiden who
numbered among her acquaintance q certain
young man who was at thai time a freQuest visitor
at her house. The young woman had habit OF
acting in way that might be termed contrary,
not so much because she really was So but from
the fact that she was somehow afraid that some
one might read her true SELF, which, by the way.
was quite charming without the veneering Of
oddly or contrartneSS She had q habit of max
Ing one uncertain whether 10 be offended at exhi-
btlons OF this trait or TO look deeper ana forgive
surface Indications. The young man made allow
ances, although sometimes little nettled by her
contrarlness The square on which she lived was
unpaved and at times when this young man called
the subject OF having a new pavement on the
street was mentioned One evening he said
I'LL GET YOUR STREET PAVED"
To this she responded In way peculiar to her.
SELF "YOu can't get 1t paved The young fellow
accepting the remark as challenge said: 81 will
try TO have it paved, just because you say I can't
have 1t done; but If fail will never come to see
you again."
one day shortly afterward happening to be In
the ONCE OF the District Commissioners he saw
them engaged upon the schedule or streets to be
paved for that year. Being well acquainted with
one OF the then Commissioners, he approached
him Familiarity just as he was examining the map
10 select street which would cost about enough
10 run the estimates up 10 round figures, as they
were then almost at the limit that had been
agreed upon to estimate. Here was the oppor-
tunlty the young man wanted. and he grasped iu
Immediately. Quick as thought he said pointing
70 the street on the map in front Of the CommiS-
siOner:
Why not put this square Inc It Is built up,
ana know that 1t needs paving badly. Ii will
cost Just about the amount you can allow"
I'll put IL in, tnen," said the Commissioner
Ana In IL WENT passed through the ordeal of re-
ductiOn IN the schedule made necessary BY cut
ting down the appropriation, and it now has a
beautiful sheet asphalt pavement.
THE SEQUEL
Elated with his success in getting the space In
the schedule the young man called and gave the
gratifying Information to the family including
the young lady, and resumed his customary visits.
but In less than three weeks, through an appar-
emily innocent and useless controversy he ullar-
relied with her and they separated forever. Before
the street was actually paved during the next
summer the family had moved TO a new residence
and so after all neither the young man nor the
family enjoyed the fruits OF his successful efforts
The other Residents do, however, but not one
knows how 1t was that square came to be paved

Medicinal Qualities of Onions.

Objectionable to many, they would
be found more generally on our din

For a cold on the chest there is no
better specific, for most persons, than
well boiled or roasted onions. They
may not agree with every one, but to
persons with. good digestion they
will not only be found to be most
excellent remedy for a cough, and
