AMONG THE MILITARY
A New Cause Of Desertion
From the Regular Army.
PROPOSED FIELD DAY SHOOT.


The proportion " Gese-tions from the
regular army. which had been failing of
since the conditions Of the service were
made more attractive. has been increasing
during the last fex months. fact which
- attributed TO change in the terms Of
service made st the last session of con-
gress. he law granite q saan who has
served thirty years thrse-fourths pay on
retirement. bus the recent change in the
law allows no private 70 re-snIist who has
already served ten years and Is over 5 years
old, unless be has already served twenty
years and upwards. This deprives them
OF the prospect Of the three-feurfhs pay on
retirement, uniess they secure promotion
TO the rank Of non-commissioned officers
Within the ten years aud IL seems 90 be
this class OF men who are deserving. The
war department. has endeavored to coun-
teract this effect Of the law as far as posi-
bic by interpreting the Lag to include
Eagoners. arsincers. trumpeters. drum
rners, farriers and saddlers under the head
OF non commissioned officers.

WAsHISGToN, Oct. 30.-United States
Consul Courtney Hixon at Foochow,
China, observing the decrease of con-
sumption through the Amick treat
ment is supplying the American coll
ony as we'll as the Chinese with the
free medicines obtained from the gen.
erous Cincinnati discoverer. No gov
ernmental action win be taken to-
wards iss solating consumptives until
the regular session.
CHICAGO, Oct 30.-The sanitary au-
.thorities aroused by recent editorials
on the Amick cure and the infectious
ness of the disease, are debating how
best to isolate consunptives. The Post
says: Consumption is placed by Mich
igan in the same category as smallpox
and it will be similarly quarantined.
Let Illinois fall in line at once"
DENVER. Oct. 30.-The proposed
state legislation isolating both resi-
dent consumptives and those coming
here has led to the incorporation of
institutions for their care. The Den
yer Sanitarium company opened theirs
last week to the patients of all ply
sicians, and combines isolation with
the Amick treatment, which each con-
sumptive is given opportunity of test
ing with medicines furnished these
physicians by the Cincinnati doctor
without cost. The Boston company for
the colonization in Colorado of is
olated consumptives has applied to
the state land commissioner for two
sections of land, which will give out
of doors occupation.

And what have you been doing
this afternoon, Dollie?" asked Mrs.
Mainwarlng at teatime.
Dollie blushed (her aunt thought
because it was SO unusual fof any one
to take any interest in her employ
ments), and said: "Sketching in the
glen, aunt"
And you had dull little luncheon
all alone by yourself in that great
dining room?"

Dear child, | am much to old to

DoIlie brought it. Her mother
looked at it, too, and was startled at
its merit
WHY, Dollyr' she exclaimed, 'you
have improved wonderfully! That bit
in the left-hand corner is excellent.

Il mean a gentleman, mother. He

has often been to work there since,
and whenever he comes he gives me
really beautiful hints. He has taught

sentence for her. TO color NV dear
Yes, see that he has taught you to
do that" She was not. however,

Take care that he is not teaching
her how to fall in love" said Mrs.

is hard to attend to anything but Evie
and Sir Philip. but when the busi-

Being informed that Dollie had been

Story Of a Lost Child.
FoGvang. MIMI, Oct. 1, 1903

FOGyang, Mimi, Oct. l, 1893.
EDITOR SAEAF:-
Thursday, Sept. %, between one
and two O'Clock, Mrs. Jacob Elstad
missed her small boy, John, who is
between two and three years OF age.
After hunting for him for i. short
time, she ran to some OF the neigh
bours WHO assisted her in the search.
The last that she saw of him he was
in the road only a short distance
from the house
After an unsuccessful search OF
about four hours his father was sent
for. Mr. Elstad WAS thrashing two
miles from home The crew return
ed home with him. They searched
everywhere that q person could
think OF his being, and when night
came, after drawing all the water
from the we'll, took lanterns and
hunted once more. At about three
O'Clock, being worn out for want of
rest, they went home.
There was u crowd of hunters
camping a short distance from the
house. One Of the ladies had seen a
child walking on the road, but was
not sure ii it WAS that one Friday
morning early the emenreturned, their
number increased by many more.
There were at least fifty men, some
walking and some OH horseback;
they searched the woods surround
ing the house, then spread out over
the country. All day they hunted,
until it seemed as if there was not a
spot that they had not been to.
When night came they returned to
their homes for the night was too
dark for them to continue the search.
Saturday they returned once more,
but now their number was between
eighty and ninety. All day once
more they searched high and low,
only pausillg to snatch Il few mouth
f1ls Tor dinner.
| Men from far and near came for
tidings Of the child, and, hearing
that he was not yet found, joined in
the search. When night came they
looked at one another gravely. and
said, ''sureIy he must be dead"
All the poor little one had on was
a calico dress, Ills shoes aud stock
ings, and a handkerchief on his head.
Saturday night it rained nearly all
might. Saturday had been wet.
i Sunday morning the men did not
gather at Mr.. Elstnd's early for
every one thought he must he dead
now. They were going to hunt this
one day more and then give up.
There were about thirty men OF them
now, for it was still raining and vet.
Before searching they held a prayer
injecting and asked God to hell, them.
i Surely He heard them for betweel,
one and two O'Clock while G. O. Grim
and p. Jnlin we're riding ON horse
.Iback over Ncls Bring'sland they saw
the child in the long grass, nearly a
mile from home. When taken up he
4 cried for HnlamnA. y
i They brought him home. and be.
yond looking somewhat poorer and
1 very tired, he seemed none the worse
from his long fast. Seventy 1.-TWO
4 hours three dnys and three cold
and wet nights, and yet nlivel
Surely, Gods angels must have
sheltered him with their wings!
