BRIGADIER GENERAL CHARLES KING.
and seems taller on that account, as all
men of military carriage do. A man
who was a pupil at the Washington and
Lee university when General Lee was
in charge of it once said he asked a
dozen men known to be close observers
how tall they thought a certain Soldier
was. The invariable answer was that
he was not less than feet. Yet his real
height was only 5 feet 101a inches.
General King in private life has been in
pretty constant demand as the director
of parades, the drillmaster of military
companies and the like. His dress was
always either wholly " in part mill
tary, but even apart from this nobody
could take him for anything but a SOL
der. After his service as military in
structor at the University Of Wisconsin
he put the Light horse squadron, a
swell company at Milwaukee, through
the regular army discipline and made it
as useful as its giddy uniform was or
namental.
The translation Of Captain Kings
novels into German brought him into
correspondence and acquaintance with
a number of officers Of the German
army. Five years ago, largely through
their invitation, he went to Germany
to study the forms Of military life there.
This was not an interruption to his
work, for he kept up his regular work
ing hours even when he was the guest
of German officers. The activity of the
volunteer army, however, will not leave
much time for literary pursuits, but to
fight the Spaniards is the most pleasing
form his vacation could take.-New
York Sun.

A recent visitor to the executive man.
sion who had the largest amount of
self-constituted Importance, perhaps,
OF any visitor in the last decade was a
negro colonel from Virginia. He
came in with flowing Jim-Swinger and
artificial cooked hat, demanding to see
the president ITO oncet." For a time
he was fretful of restraint, and refused
to consider anything except an imme-
date admission into the White house
inner sanctum. The officials asked him
what was the matter with him and
other profane questions, which at
length induced him to explain his err
rand to the subordinate.
He was from Charlottesville, Va, and
had a colored regiment ready to 20 to
the war, which he wanted mustered into
service and sent to Santiago by the
next boat. The president, of course,
would have this done If he understood
the patriotism of these dusky volun-
teers.
If you start into a battle, what is
the first command you would give the
troops?" was asked Of the old uncle.

What would be your next COM
