sCRUPLEs OVERCoME.
Story of n Captain Who Was Fond of
Chicken.

The San Jose Mercury prints a story of q
certain Captain j, who was a brave off,
Ger and good disciplinarian, but nervous
and eccentric. He had q mania for roll calls.
One cay he saw pieces of soft bread Uttered
about the company streets and shouted
with his customary impulsiveness, Fall
IN, Company BIZ The men fell in, and the
roll was called. Then the captain referred
TO the fragments of bread. Don't let me
see any more of this waste-make a mighty
good pudding Right face; break ranks;
marchW
The story was current, but probably was
not true, that Company y was once called
into line that the captain might ask which
man it was that owed him ten cents.
On another occasion the same captain
had command of the guard line, with head
quarters in the village Of Falls Church.
At the post were a sergeant and half a
dozen privates. Strict orders were issued
against interfering with private property,
Soldiers are human, however; plump chick
ems were near, and the result may be inn
agined
Early the next morning one Of the "loyal"
Inhabitants presented himself at headquar-
e
ems had disappeared during the night, and
feathers had been found just outside the
picket post. Captain iva indignant
and Of course the roll was called. The men
were lectured on the sin Of chicken steal
ing, and a search of haversacks was or
dered. The search was made, but not O
feather was discovered.
Captain j gave sigh of relief and
the complainant had nothing to do but
Withdraw.
At dinner that day the captain found
plump, juicy chicken, finely roasted, await
ing his attention He looked at it, shifted
at its aroma, and was about to fall TO,
but the instinct Of the officer staid his
hand He called his blacl, servant.
Horace, where did this chicken come
from"
"Got him outer yer haversack, cap'n."
"Out of my haversackp
The captain looked at the chicken, then
at the heavens Then he laid down his
knife and fork, sprang TO the door and
called out, Fall inl' Again the inevitable
roll call.
"Who put that chicken into my haver-
sack?" he demanded.
A smile passed down the line, but there
was no response. The demand was re-
peated in somewhat milder accents for the
fragrance of roast chicken was in the air.
Finally the servant spoke.
Captain, " he said, eve all had r hand in
It. We thought a bit Of poultry might be
good for you for a change, and your haver-
sack was handy"
Captain j called up a SERIOUS face,
but the chicken had q tempting smell
The lines of his cOuntenance relaxed.
ut was a wrong thing to do" he said,
ga very wrong thing; but now that the
bird is cooked-and it smells like good
one-it would be wicked not TO eat it,"
And eat it he did At the next roll call
he animadyerted again upon the offense of
pIlndering nOncom batants, and wound up
his homily by saying: 81 shall hang my
haversack in the same place tonight
