is ships were unite through binocu-
lars in Santiago bay. This is supposed
to be the full strength of Cervera's

Mr.. Closefist give the same amount. If
Mr.. Moneybags has given $50 originally
it should be brought to his attention
that Mr.. Closefist has just doubled the
amount and the chances are Mr.. Money
bags will also give $50 extra. Competi-
tion Is not only the life of trade, but of
the subscription business" continued
the gentleman. 'It is only by working
both ends against the middle that the
successful end is reached.
This reminds me of some thing which
happened during the war. Two regi-
ments were stationed on opposite sides
OF the river. A chaplain went ito work
on the men composing the regiment
stationed on the north side of the river
with good success. A number of the
men were converted and he left that
regiment and went to continue his mis-
sionary work in the regiment on the
south side of the river. After laboring
sometime, longer time than he had
done with the other regiment, he found
that he would not be so successful.
Only about dozen men were baptized
from tHe last regiment. The chaplain
had a talk with the colonel and men
toned the fact that so few Of the men
had been baptized.
"'How many men did you say were
baptized in the other regimentT the
colonel asked the chaplain sharply.
"'Twenty-four,' was the reply from
the chaplain.
''The colonel turned quickly around
to his orderly with the quick COM
mand: Detail thirty-five men at once
to be baptized Immediately by the chap
lain. I don't propose to let any one
horse regiment get ahead of us in any
way. We've got reputation to sus+
tain
ut is needless to say the or6er was
carried out, and by the baptizing Of the
additional 35 men just about double
the number were christened as were in
the other regiment" - Washington
