INCIDENTS OF ARMY LIFE.

Unpleasant Social Experiences Sometimes
Experienced In Posts and Garrisons.
Notwithstanding the fact that the Off
GERS of the American army are the very
pink of courtesy, they sometimes in
post and garrison life have very unpleas.
ant social experiences. An officer in a
garrison is assigned quarters not accord
ing to the necessities of his family, but
in accordance with his rank.
1t therefore comes out quite frequent
ly when new officer is sent to post
that there are many changes Of quar-
ters, SO as to make room for him. When
a new major arrives, for instance, he
selects the quarters that suit him best,
it matters not who occupies them, pro-
vided the occupant is below him in
rank. He can turn out major lower
on the list or any captain or lieutenant
and each of these when dispossessed can
choose for himself what quarters suit
him best if occupied by an inferior in
rank. One move, therefore, may make
dozen others. The women of the ar
my, it is said are greater sticklers for
their rights than the men. But the men
themselves, while preserving all the
forms of highest courtesy, sometimes
push their authority to the fullest limit
For instance, at two company post
in the west some years ago a captain OF
infantry was i'll command, as his COM
mission was of older date than that of
the captain Of cavalry also there. The
two captains were mutually antipathic
In their official intercourse all the forms
were observed, but still it was plain to
all that they cordially disliked each
other. One day the senior captain Or
dered the junior to take file of men to
the forest and cut the firewood needed
for the winter. This duty ordinarily
would have been given to sergeant or
corporal. The cavalry captain had no
recourse and was obliged to obey. just
as he got outside the post the mail
which came only now and then at in
tervals of week or SO, arrived, and
the cavalryman stopped for letters. One
of these brought him his commission
as major. He at once issued an order
taking command of the post and then
another order assigning the wood chop
ping duty to the late commandant.

Mr.. Mariscal intimated to the newspa-

only question that is being considered
at the present time. The TEMPO says
Guatemala has sent oablegram to
Mexico, in which it acted to the demand
OF this republic in every particular,
agreeing to pay TO Mexico full indem-
nifty for all losses incurred in the inva-
sion giving rise to the present unhappy
state of affairs. but this is denied. 1t is
limited at the palace that there may be a
speedy outcome to affairs now pending.
A long session OF the representatives
from the various departments, including
the treasury branch. was held with Gen.

the Mexican forces and chief of the war
department. in the absence of General
Pedro Hinojosa. General Escudero inn

PAINTINGS OF CHRIST.
The Face as Depicted by Some of the More
Modern Artists.


Modern Artists.
Among the more modern paintings
representing the Saviour is that by Cor
reggie, painted in the sixteenth CEN
tury. 1t represents Christ with short
curly beard, with long waving hair, sur
mounted by a crown of thorns. There
is look Of mute anguish on his face
that is heartrending, but nevertheless
the face is rather weak
The most terrible likeness is that
painted at about the same time as that
of Correggio by Albert Durer. 1t rep,
resents powerful face, with Grecian
cast of countenance, with eyes distorted
by pain and anguish, and even a trifle
of anger is apparent.
The Christ Of Raphael, a contempo-
rary of both tho above. is an essentially
Italian work. the face being Italian,
although the model for the forehead and
upper face was evidently a woman.
The Rem brandt Christ of the seventeenth
century wears an unpleasant expression
about the mouth and has too long face
to be perfect yet it is one of the great
artists last efforts.
Perhaps tho most fantastic picture of
Christ is that painted in the fifteenth
century by Leonardo da Vinci. 1t rep
resents the Saviour looking over his
shoulder, cynical smile on his face
A hand may be seen in his hair, evil
IDENTIFY drawing tho head to one side. 1t
cannot compare in beauty, however, to
the same artists face of Christ in the
famous "Lord's Supper" "
The noblest and the grandest is that
by Titan, painted in the sixteenth CEN
tury. It is face of resignation, Of
flrmnoss-strong got mild; mild, yet
strong. Titan was 80 years old when
he painted this, and it is considered az
one of his masterpieces.
or the absolutely modern paintings
of Christ those Of Munkaczy, AIRY Shelf
fer and Gabriel Mar; rank highest. Still
every one Of these is al imaginary pro-
duction, and the Saviour will still con-
tinue to be tho "Man OF Mystery -.

A Woman Who Makes a business of
Selling Horses.
From the Denver Republican.

From the Denver Republican.
Miss Kitty c. wilkins, the famous
horse-woman of Idaho, has been in the
city for a couple of weeks, making ar
rangements for a shipment of horses to
the south from her ranch, fifty miles
south of Boise City, at Mountain Home,
on the Union Pacific railroad.
Miss Wilkins is in many respects a
most remarkable woman. For the past
nine years she has been selling horses
and making money out of the business
where many others have failed.
Miss Wilkins is a tall blonde, with
closely cropped hair of golden hue, and
in dress and appearance she is not at
all unlike many another woman to be
met with on the street every day. She
was just getting ready to leave the city
for Chicago last evening, and while she
was talking would step to the glass and
affectionately fix her front and back
hair, which but shortly before had seen
the curling iron. She carefully slowed
away in her grip little white boxes, bits
of channels skin and a sponge, with a
little hand glass. She was neatly at
tired in a blue wool travelling dress, with
a light waist, and there were bits of
jewelry worn. She said:
