There is wailing and crashing OF
teeth at West Point. The future gen
erals are in a terrible stew and all
because Uncle Sam had no places for
the class that Will graduate in June
next. This class will number 62 and
there is not a single vacancy in the
army to which any Of the graduate 5
can be appointed. There are already
IL additional second lieutenants on the
army register who have never been
assigned to regiments. They belong
TO the graduating class OF last year.
THESE with 10 nOn-commissiOned otfic-
ers make total of IS who must be
taken care of. There will probably be
four or five vacancies between now and
next June, when the future field mar
shals will be kissing the West Point
girls good bye. and these Will be given
to the enlisted men who have received
commissions during the past ii months.

The COWBOY Preacher.

Considera Die excitement was created
on Main street Dallas on Saturday af-
ternoon by wordy difficulty between
Rev. J. r. Rice, the cowboy preacher
from Montana, who has conducted out
door meetings all over Texas, and Sc
veral members of the local Salvation
Army post. In his sermon on the street
last night Rice severely criticised the
methods Of the Salvation Army and
their allegsd ISLANDERS of his wife, who
is with him preaching. This afternoon
the members of the army replied to
Rice's structures in manner about as
cau5tic as his own. Rice appeared
while he was being roasted, and after
listening few minutes. walked across
the street and commenced counter
speaking. He, touched up the Saliva
ton Army with more freedom than
ever, and was followed by mem bcrs of
the army, who called Rice an imposer
and said their organization was doing
far more good than all such men as the
cowboy preacher. Rice told them to
get more sense and less sentiment in
their heads, and ended his talk by cal
ling one of them either an ignorant or
willful liar. Open hostilltie5 between
the men were feared, but Rice walked
away, and the immense crowd that had
gathered to hear the quarrel soon dis
appeared.

The United States army is agita ted
by another scandal which is assuming
proportions of some size. The dramaUls

Ger in the army next to Juan {. Gregg,
of the 18th infantry, Capt. Romeyn and
daughter and Lieut.. O'Brien and wife,

According to the narrative brought
out before the court martial now IN
session there, Lieut.. Bamford was en-
gagged to Miss Romeyn, who is consid-
cred one of the most attractive young
women in the army. 1t was generally
understood they would be shortly mar

left. But, 10 and behold, along comes

and was not merely conquered, but
completely mashed. Miss Romeyn
was straightway forgotten, and series
of long drawn out walks and delicious
tandem rides were in order between
Mrs. O'Brien and the handsome lieu
tenant.
This of course caused talk. whole
lot of it: and a singular feature is that
Lieut.. O'Brien does not seem to have
laid much store by it," He didn't
seem to care a fig" or any other kind
of fruit in the matter. But this dis
carding of Miss Romeyn greatly in
censed her and her parents, and the
upshot was that the captain got into an

him." Hiuc lilac lachrymae, ard this

The entire post is in Il ferment over

excite matters worse. Even the dress
parade was called off the other after
noon after quite a large party from the
city had gathered. AS the companies
had formed an officer appeared on the
parade ground with a flag indicating
that the dress parade had been called
