THAT GREAT SILK SALE AT ECK-
STEMS.

The immense reduction in price has insured
large sale of those desirable coored silks as
well as blacks at Gustave Eckstein & Co. s The
result has been that we have added still
greater value, and whether for street or even
ing wear the merit of these particular silks
can't fail to be appreciated when the low
prices fixed are considered. They ara not sell
ing out, but bargains of various kinds will be
offered from day to day. Whether the price be
40 cents for an unlaundered reinforced shirt, or
cents for fine yard-wide long cloth, anything
offered by the firm al ways has merit.

COL. PETTIT'S ORDER.
VIEWED IN THE LIGHT OF ARMY
REGULATIONS.
A Careful Compilation Of the Provisions
Bearing Upon the Case OF tho sus-
pended Captains OF tho Local
MIlitIa.

Col. Pettips order suspending four
captains from command for period Of
fifteen days for non.appearancc at battal-
ion drill last Wednesday was a iayoHio
topic for discussion yesterday in military
circles.
Opinions were divided as TO whether
the Colonel did right or not
Some thought the punishment inflicted
upon delinquent captains ill-adviscd,
while others again insisted that Il would
have good effect In insuring strict dis.
ciplinc ia the future. Others again were
Of opinion that Col. Petit had exceeded
his authority and that bis order was UNI
necessarily harsh. TnE ArrEAL's military
reporter consulted several military experts
upon the subject but none Of them seemed
TO have any well defined ideas upon the
subject. In order TO furnish is readers
with accurate information the reporter
ransackcd the Army Regulations and
found the following regulations, some Of
which bear directly upon the point, others
remotely:
ARTICLE i.--MiLirARY DISCIPLINE.
Paragraph .. Military authority will
be'sxcrcised with flfmncss, kindness and
Justice. Punishmcnis must conform TO
law and follow the ollcnsc as promptly rs
circumstances will permit"
Paragraph o SupetioB are forbidden
10 iniurc those under them by tyrannical
OF apricious conduct or abusive language
Neither OF the above paragraphs apply
directly 10 the case la hand. Col. Pciiits
order cannot Justly be characterized "a
iynnnical, capricious o. abusive.
Tho following sections are moro 10 the
point
Article Lxxiv. --ARREsrs Ann coNrixE.

Paragraph 900 "Onicon will not be
placed under arrest for light ollcnscs. For
these the censurc OF the commanding ON.
Ger will generally answer tho purpose Of

Article 80 Of the ARTICLES Of War" seems
10 hit the nail exactly on the head. II
says; "Any officer or soldier who fails,
except when prevented by sickness or
other necessity, TO repair at the fixed time
10 the place Of parade exercise or Other
rendezvous appointed by bis commanding
officer, or goes from the same without
leave from his commanding officer before
he Is dismissed or relieved, shall be pun
ished as a court martial may direct"
This, II seems, "a as plain az the English
