HE KNEW WHO WORE SOCKS

Clever Trick Played on b German
General by . SubRlterh Omcer. !,
Under orders existing some time ago,
men in the German army wore at will,
either socks or fuszlappen "a species Of
bandage) on their feet. During an in
spection, relates the San. Francisco
Argonaut, q certain general asked
subaltern officer what his men wore on
their feet. He replied that some wore
socks and some alappen---about 70 per
cent. socks. The general further asked
him IL he knew what each individual
wore. He was answered promptly in
the affirmative. "What," said the gem
:. eral, pointing to a man in the ranks,
"does this man wear?" Socks" was
q, the response; and on the man taking
= of n boot on tho. generals order, a
sock was found to incase!the foot. The
SAME test applied in several cases pro-
duced the same result. The general
was highly impressed with the init
mate knowledge Of detail displayed by
1.-THE subaltern, but the lad disclosed
subsequently to his brother officers the
simple device which procured him such
,kudes. His men, by his order, had all
q sock on one foot and tusziappen on
thei otbSrs. Phey were Instructed to
1otecarefullgt the answer given by their
officer, and to remove the boot which
would .dtsclose a yerifeation of his as
sertion.

Senator Stewart VS.. Times Review,
To all appearances there exists
some difference Of opinion between
the Tuscarora Times Review and Sem
ator Stewart regarding the action the
Nevada Senators took in voting for
the DmgIey Protective Tariff Bill.
A letter from Senator Stewart un-
der date Of August 25rh states that
Nevada's Senators voted for the
measure primarily because they de-
sired to sac it passed as Republican
cure-all, and secondarily because they
decided that the tariff ON wool, borax
soda-ash and lead and the reduction
Of the duty on Cyanide from 30 per
cent advaloreIn to 121a per cent adj
valorem would more than offset the
increase Of tariff upon the necessities
which Nevad requires. ,p
The Cimes-R Review claims that the
difTorcncein tariff ON the articles nam.
ed will not off set the loss from the in.
crease of taxation} upon necessities
and denies the theory that the action
OF the senators in voting for the meas
IRE will in any manuer be productive
OF favorable RESULTS to the cause Of
bimetallism, for which Nevada Il
known to stand.
