French Military Mistakes.

An amusing incident happened in the
French war Office recently. In looking
over the records It was discovered that
NJ. Manduit, an officer, was to celebrate
the hurdreth anniversary Of his birth
on q certain day. Orders were sent to
the garrison where Manduit was re-
corded as being on duty to celebrate the
day in military fashion. Upon investi-
CATION, however, it was learned that
Manduit had died in 1875. by mistake
his name had not been taken from the
records. A similar mistake occurred
during Boulanger's administration. Or.
ders were issued to pay military honors
to Brigadier General Marion de Gaia on
the one hundredth anniversary of his
birth. Great was the surprise of in
nocent shopl1eeper when on the day ap-
pointed company Of soldiers and a
military band drew up before a house
which was said to be the home of the
general. But the general, it was after
ward discovered, had ended his career
years before the eventful day. As in
the recent incident, the clerks had for
gotten to erase the officers name from
the record. Chicago Times.

Tbe Eating business.

1t seems extremely odd that o man
should ever have been constructed on a
plan that requires him to stop work
three times every day and load up.
Meals are pleasant enough when they
are pleasant, but the inconvenience and
the expense of them are simply ridicu-
lous. If we were built on an eight-day
system, or could go out and gorge once
or twice week and have done with it,
there would be a better possibility OF
accomplishing something that would
make life worth while. OF course,
every day brings its own pleasant pos
sibility that some microscopic may lind
the bacillus of hunger and devise a
lymph that viii eat him,-Rochester

Rock Springs waking Up.

Clarence G. Hamlin, a young lawyer OF
Rock Springs, who is on his way to Iowa
for a short visit, stopped over in the city
yesterday. Mr.. Hsmlin says Rock Springs
is improving; that 1t is expected all of the
mines will be running by the last of the
month and that a strong effort will be
made to catch and hold the commercial
trade in coal. Much of the trade which
should have gone to Rock Springs last
year was lost because of the company's
inability to fill orders.
