Nickname. i'm the German Army.


From the Chicago Inter-Ocean.
Everybody is familiar with the name Of
Tommy Atkins, representing the British
soldier, but how many know the terms of
endearment by which the German soldiers
are called? Some of these are applied to the
entire regiment, some to an individual corps.
The guards are called ''hammer' or Sheep"
the guards call the soldiers of the line field
rats" the infantry speak of the cavalry
as a'grooms" and the cavalry return the
compliment by bestowing upon the infantry
the names Of sand hares," sand carriers"
and "clodhoppers." The cuirassiers are
known as flour sacks" the pioneers as
'.moles." the hussars as .'packthreads' and
the artillery "cow soldiers" The latter
are also called astronomers" and the en-
gineers water rats"
In these divisions again the corps have
names for themselves and their rivals. In
the cavalry the seventh cuirassiers are the
"whitesmiths;" the first hussars the idea TIL s
heads" as their shake bears this emblem,
and the fourth hussars from their brown
uniforms, are called 'partridges," the only
remembrance ofaFreferick II, who used all
the cloth found M ~ Capuchin convent for
his soldiers.
The green uniform with yellow facings
has given to the sixth hussars the name of

Although 1t was expected that a good

. A N~vek Stock Farm to He Operated in
-. g. Northern Wisconsin,.
From the Philadelphia Bulletin,
A deer and bear farm is the latest indus
trial project for northern Wisconsin, and
the men behind the plan think that they
have a fortune in sight. The farm is situ-
ated in the woods a few miles from the
Great Northern road. and is already fairly
we'll stocked with animals. The proprietors
are James Allen, an old woodsman and
hunter, and DIR. Harrison, New Yorker.
who has been spending much time in the
northwest. They propose to raise deer and
bears for the market, for the meat as well
as the fur.
The plan is not to turn the animals loose
in the woods. where they may be shot by
every hunter who comes along, but to keep
them in pens or corrals. where they can be
attended by their keepers and watched over
the same as domestic animals. The idea
originated with Mr.Allen two or three years
ago. and since then he has kept several
male and female bears and a number of
deer in separate pens near his home. He
has found that the animals will mate in
captivity as well as in the wild state, and
has a number of cubs and fawns to prove
his statements. Allen is now engaged in
enlarging his pens, buying up all the deer
and bears he can find, and preparing for
winter, when the stock will need more care
and attention than at any other time dur
ing the year.
The intention is to feed the deer in much
the same manner as sheep, while the bears
WILL in addition to corn and potatoes, have
more or less meat.

SHE LOST HER JEWELS.

An Episode of River Steamboat Days
Suggested by q Recent Engagement.
From the Chicago rmes-Herald.
Speaking of the Marlborough-Vanderbi
engagement, here is something that is kin
to it: One night. away back yonder in the
latter sixties. I was a passenger on a
steamboat-the Richmond-running from
Louisville to New Orleans. 1t was a down
trip, and the boat had reached the Court
Country" that region lying along the Mis-
sissippi below Natchez to the Belize.
The vessel was sailing smoothly down the
majestic stream, and it was long after mid
night. The great and superb cabins were
as quiet as the upper floors of grand
hotel at such an hour, save that a party of
four gentlemen playing whist in the for
ward part OF the main saloon kept up the
faint low conversation necessary to the
game.
Twas perhaps 1 o'clock when the card
players and those who were awake in their
berths on that deck were startled by a
scream from the ladies' cabin, and there
came rushing down toward the clerks Of
flee handsome matron en- deshabi]le.
Clinging to the lady's skirts and crying in
sympathy with her mothers distress was a
little girl Of six or eight years. perhaps
ten.
my diamonds are gone!' the matron
said, in husky voice. to the alarmed night
clerk.
A thief, who had probably watched for
this opportunity for years. had reached
over the transom Of the lady's state room
from the outside and had cut away and
carried off the pocket of her dress contain
ing 100000 worth of great Jewels Prob
ably he went ashore at the next landing
after the theft had been accomplished: At
any rate, he made good his escape, and the
jewels were never heard Of again by their
owner.
The company owning the boat in the law
suit that followed proved that a safe was
kept on the boat for the express purpose of
caring for valuable property or Jewels or
money of the passengers, and the plaintiffs
lost the case.
The lady was Sonora Yznaga. wife of a
wealthy Cuban; the little girl was Consuelo,
afterward Duchess of Manchester, then
Duchess Dowager, now Duchess of Devon
shire, and for her was named Consuelo
Vanderbilt, whose mother was a girlhood
friend of Consuelo Yznaga, and who Is to
be the Duchess of Marlborough.

Teaching the Bagpipes.
From the Glasgow Herald.

A highlander, having to teach a chum in
his regiment to play the bagpipes, began
to instruct him in reading the music in
the following way:
You see that chap with white. round,
open face?" pointing to semibreve be-
tween the lines: "well he moves slowly
from that line to this, while you beat one
and take a long blow. Now, If you put a
leg on him you make two of him, and he
moves twice as fast. If you black his face
he runs four times as fast as the white
faced one; then, if you bend his knees or
tie his legs, he will hop eight times faster
than the white-faced one.
Now, when you blow the pipes, remem-
ber that the tighter those chaps legs are
tied the faster they run, and the quicker
they are sure to dance"

the track within sixty feet Of the engine.
An instant later there was a crash of the
underbrush, and out of it came an immense
ps nther, running SO fast that he seemd to
be level with the ground. He was SO
eager to catch the game ahead of him that
he had no eye for the train.
Passengers in the five coaches did not
know of the exciting race going on ahead
of the cowcatcher, but they did notice
that there was series of quick and sue

neer Taylor resolved to take a hand in the
race himself He pulled the throttle wide
open, and the engine fairly bumped her.

The deer was about one hundred yards
ahead. and the panther was thirty yards
behind the deer. The deer was barely hold
| ing his own. Something seemed to be tina
matter with him, for he didn't run as he
should. The deer kept the track for a half

| the engine crawled close upon the pam
tier. He heard the rumbling of the wheels
and the trembling of the track, and he
| quickly got out of the way, hiding himself
| In the underbrush by a series of success

The deer did not quit the track until q
quarter of a mile further on. He took to
the open pine woods on the opposite side
to which the panther had leaped, and the

was up when the train was running so

deer scudding through the woods. He told

PRISONERS ON THEIR HONOR.
Easy to Get Along With If the Omcel

Has Their Good Will.
From the Louisville Courier-Journal.
Jasper Ramey, one of the moonshiners
now In Jail here, walked twenty miles to
give himself up to the revenue officers
This is not uncommon in the mountain
counties. A number of the deputies who
make periodical visits to the counties of
Pike. Letcher. Knott, Magofin, &C., have
little trouble in arresting the men they are
after, while other officers have to fight for
their lives. 1t is told of one of the deputy
marshals that whenever, he wants a man
he simply writes letter to him, informing
him that an Indictment has been returned
against him, and that he wants to meet
him on a certain day at a neighboring
town. Some of the letters wind up like
this. II also have warrants for several of
the boys (naming them), and wish you
would see them and tell them that I will
be In -- on - and for them to be

time designated.
Several of the deputy marshals who go to
the top of the Cumberland for prisoners
occasionally let the men "'tend their crops
while they are under arrest. The officer
goes through the country, meets the man,
and says:
Tom, I've warrant for your arrest"
"All right; I've been 'spectin' It,"
II know you've big crop, though, and
ss court don't meet before October, you
can tend your crop and come up to Louis
Vile just before court opens"
Then the man would return to his work,
and at the appointed time he would be in
this city, ready to answer to the charge
against him when his case was called.
Several months ago one Of the oldest Of
the deputy United States marshals in Ken
lucky walked up to the door Of the county
jail and asked for the jailer. He was in
troduced to Mr.. Watts, and said:
Il have three sinners that I brought
from Magoffin county. AS we came on the
train. I left my 'mitiuuses' in my saddle
bags, and when we came out Of the coach
I forgot my saddle bags. I want to know
If you will let me put these prisoners in
Jail here without the papers? 1 will get the
'mitimuses' in few days, and 1t will be
all right and proper
Jailer Watts told the man he would ac-
commodate him because of his bad luck.
But where are the prisoners?" said the
jailer.
"Oh, them! Well, they're out in town
some place. We came in Yesterday, and
told them they might knock about the city
until I arranged 1t with you for them to
go in here. I'll go out and look them up
and bring them in."
In about an hour he returned with three
typical mountaineers. who said they had
enjoyed looking at the sights of the city
very much. They had never been in Louis
willie before, and thought 1t a great treat
to be able to ride thar Free" even though
they came as prisoners.
