TO BE DRUMMED OUT.
A Man Who Enlisted and Left His
Family in Want,

The call for volnteers for the war has
brought to light peculiar case in San
Francisco-that of a man who enlisted
IN the army, leaving a wife and two
children without means of support The
popular idea has been that a man who
leaves his family to battle for his coun-
try is entitled to great credit for the
sacrifice he makes, and that the family
will get along somehow
But this theory is evidently the
wrong one, as will be seen from the
following statement of the case of John
Green, as made by the Call
There is one of the volunteers whose
experience in the army is not likely to
be in the line of honors and promo
ton. He is John Green of 239 Shipley
street. According to the complaint
made recently to the Eureka Society for
the Protection of Children he has a
nice little wife and two small children.
Without warning he left a job that paid
SO a week. and without providing for
the care of his family, joined Battery
B, heavy artillery.
The wife told Secretary Wadham
that she was destitute, and the little
ones have nothing to eat Wadham at
OuCe got out d warrant IOT tIlo arrest
of the young man and laid the case be-
fore the officers of the battery. The
latter have taken a keen interest in
the case and the result was that the
Assistant Adjutant-General sent the
following order to Major Rice, under
whose command Green now is:
Please take such measures as will
prevent Private John Green, Battery
B, Heavy Artillery, from escaping un-
til questions of his status can be sub
mitted to Department Commanders on
Monday
Secretary Wadham has been Informed
that Green will be drummed out of the
ranks in disgrace and turned over to
the civil courts as soon as the Com
manders can pass upon his case"

HARMLESS SWALLOWS.
A Citizen Who Protests Against
Their Destruction.

Chairman Manson of the Bureau of
State Highways, protests against the
slaughter Of barn swallows which nest
under the caves of the Capitol building.
For some weeks past Secretary of
State Brown has authorized the shoot
ing of the birds because their nests dis
figured the building, and at many times
since then a visitor might readily be-
lieve that the Spanish had invaded the
State and We're trying to break even
by battering down the big State build
ing.
Mr.. Manson says the mud nests put
up by the industrious birds are scarce
ly perceptible from the ground, and
that the birds themselves are most val
liable farmers and horticulturists. They
are insect destroyers, weavil and mos
quitos being their principal food, and
they never molest fruit or grain of any
kind.
Mr.. Manson says if the people around
the Capitol building want good shoot
ing they might keep in practice on the
pestiferous English sparrows that in
fest the grounds.

LEFT HIS BEAT.
Officer Taylor Suspended-His Ex-
plauatiou

Policeman V F. Taylor was suspend
ed from duty by Chief of Police Dwyer
last night 1t is alleged that Taylor
was off his beat on Saturday night
A few weeks ago Taylor was suspended
for leaving his beat while on duty. II
is quite probable that Chief Dwyer will
prefer charges against him.
Officer Taylor was seen by a Rec
ord-Union" reporter, and admitted hav-
ing been down town as stated. He has
supper, he said, about > o'clock each
evening, and is unable to go until after
s o'clock the next morning without
eating. There are no hotels or res
taurants on his beat which are open all
night, and his only chance for getting a
meal is to come down town for it.
Taylor states that he is afflicted with
stomach trouble, and is unable in his
weakened condition to go fifteen hours
without food.

FLAG RAISING.
Old Glory Now Floats From an Oak
Park Mast

There was a fiagraising event at
Oak Park on Saturday. Some of the
good people there decided the other
day that the Stars and Stripes would
look well floating in the Oak Park
breezes, so M D. Coon set out to raise
the money necessary to purchase flag.
He collected enough to pay for hand
some 12x1S-foot banner, and on Sat
urday it was raised aloft with appro-
pirate ceremonies. The exercises were
as follows:
Selection by the Oak Park Band;
opening address by the Chairman, w.

sell; song by the school; raising of the
flag, Jessie Shaw; salute and oath of

A BOTTLE OF PARIS GREEN.
ALLEGED TO HAVE BEEN SENT
TO CHIQUITA.
It Didn't Reach the Little Woman
and the Cuban Atom
Still Lives.

Druggist Fred Ray was yesterday ap-
piled to by the manager of Chiquita, the
little pocket edition of Cuban woman,
for an analysis of the contents OF So
called bottle of wine, alleged to have
been sent to the little woman as a glft.
According to the story of the bottle, 1T
Is said that it was feared 1t might con-
tain poison. and that some Spanish
sympathizer may have sent 1t Tor the
purpose of killing the liliputian Cuban
Mr.. Ray made an analysis Of the bot
ties contents, though its appearance
was enough of itself to show that the
stuff was not drinkable and that it
was unlike any wine ever MADE. Chl-
quita or anybody else who could be de-
ceiyed by such a compound is hardly
entitled to live.
Mr.. Rays analysis showed that the
bottle contained enough Paris green to
kill twenty persons, if properly dis
tributed. and so stated in his report TO
the manager of the diminutive lady.
But Mr. Ray did not add anything
further. He did not say that the con-
tents of the bottle was of the con-
sistency and color of thin mud, though
such was the case, nor that when
Snaken ana poured into grass II Was
as green as green grass, which was
also true. Neither did his report say
that the cork of the bottle was Smeared
with the poison until it was as green
as jealousy, though such was also true,
and he did not state that the attempt
at poisoning Gf there was any attempt
was a very bunglesome affair, though
he might have truthfully said as much.
1t is said that a similar attempt was
made to poison Chiquita at San Fran
cisco, but the wonder of it is, who would
go to any trouble to rid the world OF
so small an atom of humanity? Even
a Spaniard would be in very small BUS
iness to turn such a trick. Deputy
Sheriff Katzenstein has been working
on the case" The bottle of stuff is still
in the possession of Druggist Ray, and
it speaks for itself
However the incident may serve to
cause the little woman to be talked
about and wher a person in the snow
business is we'll discussed he or she is
likely to profit by the celebrity thus
gained. 1t would be unfair-possibly
unjust-to insinuate that the episode
was intended for advertising purposes,
but there are some who persist in re-
garding it in that light

ADJUSTMENTS.

The new Orpheum bill, inaugurated
yesterday is one of the liveliest and
neatest the management has yet pre-
sented and one of the most novel, in
asmuch as there is highly sustained
interest without great variety. 1t
has, judging by most of the vaudeville
bills, been supposed that in each pro-
gramme there must be some trick work,
something acrobatic, something OF
ledgerdemain or jugglery, something of
clown work, some novelty in music.
In this case there are none of these,
but nevertheless the bill is full of in
terest and it is not allowed to lag for
a moment Musical Fletcher in black
face gives a very grotesque act, using
odd things for musical instruments. In
playing upon one string on three queer
violins he is an adept. w. F. Baker
is a fine impersonator. In view of the
audience, with inconceivable rapidity,
he changes from a Broadway swell to
a gentleman in evening costume, to a
New York fireman and finally to a
United States blue jacket, in each case
introducing a new song, one of them
stirringly patriotic. Mae Tunison, the
fine voiced soprano, reappears and in
ly recalled With such a superior vocal
gift it is to be regretted that Miss
Tunison is deficient in the art of enun-
citation in song. She has too fine vocal
powers to be deficient in ability to
make song more ineligible. Nellie
Budworth and Harry Brimmer give
song and comedy sketch in two parts
that is very humorous, full of action,
repartee and good vocal work. They
make a capital team and are at once
favorites. Hayes and Bandy are two
new singers and dancers. In wing,
fancy and Jig dancing we recall none
seen here who have equaled them.
Each introduced half dozen or more
of steps wholly novel here and very
difficult But the two remaining num-
bers carry off the palm of the pro-
gramme John w Ransone, carlca-
