CRUELTY TO CHILDREN.
New York Herald1

fhe other afternoon number of hap
Ply children. In charge of wealthy par
ents and relatives, gathered to take
part In Christmas Eantomime given
Tor charitable purposes
But the Society 70: the Prevention
OF Cruelty to Children Interviewed and
despite the indignant protests of the
parents, prohibited the little ones from
appearing in the roles for which they
had been prepared with 50 r.,;ch pains.
The children and their ftienGs wero
sorely disappointed, nut the socitey said:
There Is the letter OF the law, and we
shall enforce it,
Along Broadway and o:hcr thorough
fares these bihter, freezing nights
st all hours. even after mdnight-the
pedestrian, chilled though wrapped to
the chin, encounters half-clothed and
shivering little tots OF or years.
With frost-pinched faces, toes out OF
their shoes and fingers stiffened with
cold, they stand/on the wind-swept cor
ners trying to sell newspapers or beg
cling from passersby.
IF II is cruelty to wealthy children
to dance and sing In the presence OF
their Parents in a comforta BILE hall some
fine afternoon-cruelty which the society
Is impelled TO prevent-how about these
friendless and half-frozen waits in the
midnight streets ?

1t IS absolutely impossible to
have Rheumatism if the Blood
IS pure. The acids which cause
the disease cannot exist in rich,
healthy blood. The reason so
many thousands fail to get rid
OF Rheumatism is because they
try to cure it with lininents and
external applications of one kind
or another.
The Blood cannot be reached
from the outside. Rheumatism
cannot be cured that way. A
person may try a lifetime, but
the disease will not yield to such
treatment; it will, on the other
hand, grow worse each year.

TYRANNY IN THE ARMY.

F'rom the Springfield Union.)
Uncle Sam had better turn his at
tention to the army and eliminate
some OF the snobbishness and exclu-
siVeness that pervades our military
system. Army officers, as a class. are
of the opinion that the earth was made
for their exclusive use, and woe to the
soldier who crosses their path either
IN the line Of duty or unthnkinely.
1t mas reached a point now where q
superior officer In the United States
Army is like king-he can do no
h:Sm, and. no matter what his sins.
ne must be forgiven. Only few
weeks ago the country was scandaliZed
from one end to the other by the trial
OF Captain Lowering. of Fort SherI-
dan, for brutality to soldier In his
command, but 1t was supposed that
the incident was closed. However, it
appears that the sore spot still exists
day or two ago sergeant who tes-
tilted against the Captain when called
upon was reduced to the ranks, and
now private has been discharged for
the same reason. What are we build
ing up in our army system? Is It to
be species of prison life with the
oilcers for keepers and the soldiers for
prisoners? Has 1t come to n pass
where the private soldier must sacrl-
lice his rights as freeman to satisfy
The petty spite Of his superior officer?
If captains and majors and, colonies
and generals are TO become despots
over the men who are serving their
country quite as well as they then it is
time that the army of the United
States should either be abolished or
subjected to more humane rules.

AGAIN THE REBEL YELL.
This Time the Boys in Blue Respond
to II as Well rs the Boys Who
Wore the Gray.

The American army has adopted tho
rebel yell.
The famous war cry of the confeder-
acy is alive to-day, but it is the boys
in blue who unlimber their vocal
chords and screech like a lot of old
"rebs" as they dash to the charge.
The men of assachusetts yell just
as Justify as the men south of the Ma
sen and Dixon line. In fact. the north
ern troops, and particularly those
from New York, seem to place great
confidence in the horrible screech.
The roar and rousins cheer which en-
Outraged the boys of CT who were bat
Ting for the preservation of the union
seems to live in memory only.
1t has been succeeded by the blood.
curdlng yell which the wcarers Of
the ragged jacket" made heard far
above the howl of the shell, the roar of
the cannon or the bark of the musket.
In '9S the old rebel yell is heard again.
1t is not generally known that yell
ing when the charge is on is prescribed
in the army regulations.
"When from 80 to so yards from the
enemy emit a YELL" saith the drill
book, and the yell that fills the air
is the plain, old-fashioned rebel "Y-
Yo-Yo-Wo-Wo. The New Workers
turn loose fearful yell when they
charge, and the Fifth regiment of
Maryland let's go an even more dan
gerous howl The sound is nothing of
the nature of cheer. 1t is a wild, I'M
earthly cross between screech and a
yell. that is calculated not only to
courage our own boys. The yell is sup
posed to put the finishing touches to
the enemy. The Americans in their
charge. having covered all but about
20 yards of the distance until the Span
iards are reached, dash forward from
d double-quick to mad rush, yelling
wildly, for the triple purpose of en-
couraging each other and confusing
and terrorizing the enemy
There is not question Of doubt that
the battle cry of the American army
is the "rebel yell' of old. and its adop-
ton by the boys in blue is great com
pliment to the men who set it to music
of bullets 81 years ago.
The Fifth took to the yell most nat
urally. There are men in the COM
mand who sang in the choir of '61,
and who are delighted to hear the re-
vival of the old but never-to- be-for-
gotten ''meloGy."
Capt. Lee Goldsborough. of company
l. says the yell, junior, is DHie real
thing, and is Of the opinion that it is
the sweetest music" he ever heard.
When the 'ort'er to charge" is given
the men start forward at double
quick. Then. IT'S the enemy's line is
neared, the squirt begins, the yell is
given and I'll is over, perhaps. During
every skirmish drill scores of men NAV
be seen rushing over the hot sands
against an imaginary foe, yelling like
wild. The yell. it is hoped. will prove
very effective against the Spaniards,
who by this time have heard it. and I'M
derstand that it is backed up by line
OF cold steel manipulated by muscular
American arms.-Tampa Cor. Balti-

Pipe Smokers.

Men of strong fiber smoke pipes.
This assertion is based on critical ob-
servation, and the longer l live the
stronger is my conviction of it's truth.
After watching gang of Italians

nearly every one who would smoke a

proof as soon as bread and pork were
gotten out of the way. Do not under
stand me to say that all men of strong

Of the strongest mental as we'll as
