mustache Of any man living. 1t meas
ures nino feet from tip to tip. four and
n half feet each way from the center Of
the lip. This mustache is Mr.. Browns
greatest Joy and pride. 1t is most care
fully kept, and would attract marked
attention anywhere. The Indians look
upon this enormously long mustache
with awe and reverence, believing Mr..
Brown to ilnve been exceptionally bless
ed by God.

Iieut. schofleld,s Case,

One Of the most interesting cascs OF
physical disability" Of an officer Of
the army-the more Interesting because
It has aroused so much comment
among officers Of the army itself-is
that of Second Lieutendant n. McA.
Schofield, a son Of Lieut.. General Scho-
field. He recently appeared before an
examining board in San Francisco for
promotion, and the medical board re-
fused to pass him upon the ground of
defective hearing. Then came the
question whether or not his deafness
constituted 'incapacity to perform
duty" in his present rank. The next
step was to examine the records Of his
first examination. upon his original
entry into the service, to learn whether
or not deafness was then observed:
but they werefound to be clear on this
point. On the other hand, some officers
have said that Lieut.. Schofleld was
slightly deaf before he entered the ser.
vice, and II this fact is proved a COM
plication may arise which will not only
affect the military status Of Lieut..
Schofleld but also the officers on his
first board. II 1t is found that the
disability originated in the line Of duty
then he will be entitled to be retired
with the rank of First Lieutenant
