EVERY SOLDIER MAPPED.
The War Departments Method of
Detecting Deserrers.
From the Wahington Past

From the Warrington Post.
The war department has a very interest
ing way of capturing deserters from +bA
army. About six years ago congress es-
tablished military detective bureau m
der the surgeon-general for the detection
and capture of deserters and other mill
tary criminals. Before that time deser-
uons We're very frequent, and there were
many criminals in this country who used
the service as a place of temporary ref
uge when they were pursued by detectives
schedule life of a post afforded them a
protection which they could not Obtain
while lodging around the country. AS it
would nave been an expensive and unsat-
lsIactory method for the government to
pursue these deserters by the usual de-
tectlVe methods, the surgeon-general was
authorized to establish scheme to cap
ture them otherwise.
The idea was conceived that all these
men We're likely to have permanent marks
on their body by which they could be

bearing the outlines of an anatomical
man. The cards are about eight inches
square, and the outlined figure of the man
is printed on both sides. one side shows
a front view of the figure, with the hands
ana arms straight down at the Sides and
the other shows the rear figure. Blank
spaces are provided for the mans name
age, hight, nationality, color of his eyes
and few minor questions that might
assist in Identifying him. The back and
front view of the figure are divided into
hfty-eight sections.
When man shows up to recruit the
surgeon strips him and subjects him to a
scrutiny for scars, moles, tattooincs and
other permanent marks on his body He
indicates the nature of any marks he
may md on one of these cards with ink.
ana IN three years from the time the
scheme was put into operation there was

coRBETT A DOOMED MAN.
The Famous ex-ChampiOn is Rapidly
Going to Pieces.
From the Washington Post.

From the Washington Post
"Jim Corbett lis a doomed man." so his
old spawing partner, John Donaldson,
told a reporter recently.
According to Donaldson, and Ne ought
to Know what he is talking about, Cor
bett is the victim of a serious physical
ailment, and his physicians have warned
him repeatedly to take care of himself.
Corbett has often been praised for lead
ing a temperate life but those who know
him best are familiar with his high-rol-
ling and deep plunging. But ne is not os-
tentatious about his dissipation, like John
l.. Sullivan, and the public never hear of
his little rackets. Corbett INDUCES in a
round of pleasure, and when he comes to
his senses he vows he will brace up, and
for a. few weeks he is as straight as a
string. Then, contrary to the orders of
his physicians, he will cut loose and have
a merry whirl of it,
His high rolling began to tell on him be-
fore he began to train for his fight with
Charley Mitchell, and during his training
in Florida he was nervous peeVish and
irritable. Donaldson believes that even fn
this condition Corbett is the master of
any living fighter, and that Maher or
tttzsimmons wouldn't have a ghost of
a chance against him, because his remark
able agility would save him. He predicts.
however, that the champion will collapse
suddenly, and advises him to retire after
he meets the winner of the Maher-F'itz-
simmons fight, which he must do in order
to hold the respect of the public.

Saturday night on the occasion Of their
entertainment, which proved one OF the
most successful secret society events OF
the season. The sisters took somewhat
of a new departure, substituting most
excellent musical and literary pro-
gramme instead of cards, which nave
been so popular during the winter sea-
SON. The change proved a good one Tot
every chair in the new and commodlous
Castle hall was occupied.
Following the literary and muslcal
exercises the guests were conducted 10

past was served The floral decorations
were handsome and such as are sell
dom seen on such occasions. In the
center of the table was pyramid on

center of the pyramid were four circles
of roses of different kinds, representing
the colors of the temple-white. blue,

twined with ivy, symbolizing the name

Have we budding Paderewslsi in
our midst? Probably every one of the
crowd that witnessed a remarkable
performance at E. N. jenkins music
store yesterday afternoon is firmly
convinced of it and looks upon Calvin
Jenkins, aged four and half years,
as a coming wizard on the piano
When this blue-eyed. flaxen-haired
youngster was only two and a half
years old he touched the keys of a
piano for the first time and astonished
his father by playing a, fragment of
some little air. Since then he has
amused himself more or less by play
ing, and his wonderful faculty has de-
veloped all the time, until now, with
out the slightest training-which
would. of course, in a tot of years,
be out of the question-he is able to
play a number of simple airs.
Yesterday afternoon he climbed up
on the stool in front of Chickering
Grand and ratified off a number of
simple melodies, seldom striking a
false note. keeping good time and,
strangely enough, playing with no lit
tie expression. But what was most
singular. he never once glanced at
the keys while his little fingers were
hitting ofci iiicin, Jul hSPt tHoSe plS
eyes roaming over the admiring crowd,
frequently laughing outright as soma
turn of the air tickled his fancy and
occasionally talking with those nearest
him. Finally he consented to play a
simple little Duet with his father and
followed the same method. and it was
evident that his playing was all done
by instinct The love for music and
the ability to express it were born in
him and one cannot listen to him with
out involuntarily specializing as to his
future.
\ When Paderewslsi was here Calvin
heard him and recollected enough of
his minuet to play fragments of it,
and now he can play nearly all of it,

THE double standard of morality
was not favored by Kate Field. Her
sympathies were generally extended to
the erring woman rather than the
man. Yet 1t was said of her that she
preferred the society of men. This in
a measure was true because she could
talk to men on the topics IN which she
was interested and not all women cared
for earnest, thoughtful conversation.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1896-06-08

Kate believed that home is the best
sphere for woman Womans highest

was to make that place the ideal where
