THE ROUND ROBIN.

Origin of the Term-The People at San
tiaso Perhaps a Little Ratified.
Richmond Dispatch.
The protest of the American officers
at Santiago against our army's being
kept there any longer is spoken of by
the dispatches as Ga round robin"
And so it is for all practical purpo-
ses, though we suppose it is not so in
exact form. AS we understand it, a
round robin is a petition or remon-
STRANGE signed in such a way that no
name heads the list. The signatures
are placed in circular form. The die
tionaries tell US that the device is OF
French origin, and that the term is q
corruption of rond (round) and rudan
(ribbon.) 1t was first adopted by the
officers of the French government as a
means of making known their griev-
ances, without disclosing the leader in
the movement.
We doubt if the officers who signed
the Santiago remonstrance took the
trouble to sign their names as the
Frenchmen did, Quite probably they
signed the paper just as they would
have done had it been one calling upon
a man to run for congress, or begging
the executive to pardon murderer.
However, it was important action
extreme action. 1t shows that the
army officers-seemingly led by Roose-
Welfare in conflict of opinion with
the war Office, and it threw all the
responsibility for the further detention
of Skaters army in Cuba upon the
war office. The result is that the war
Office has had to back down and order
Skaters army to Long Island, N. Y.
It looks very much indeed as though
there were a panicky feeling among
our men at Santiago. We presume the
death-rate from fevers is increasing,
and that the men think they would be
better off in this country than in the
hill country around Santiago. That
may be so; but there are those who
doubt it. None but we'll men can be
prudently put aboard the transports,
yet should the yellow fever break out
among them before they land, the
mortality would probably be very
great.
However, the round robin has de-
cided the question-Shafter's army
will return to this country, and i'm
munes (socalled) will take their places.

Two THoUTHAND PIGTH.-An ex'

man who had peculiar lisp, and had
bought some swine, applied to neigh
Dor for the loan of pigpen, when the
following conversation ensued:
"Mitheth Young, I have bought two
thowth and pigtb, and want to put
them in your pen till tomorrow"
"Why Mr.. Fisher, my pen will not
hold twentieth part of them; what
in the world are you going to do with
two thousand pigs9"
"Understand me, madam ; l don't
thay two thouthand pigth, but two
thowth and pigth."

for one family! The man is certainly
crazy"

you mean. Certainly my pen is at
your service, neighbor.

THE MISSING MEMORANDUM.

Those of us who depend upon "paper
memories" as lists and memorandums
are scornfully called by those who can
remember without their aid, can ap-
preciate this story, told at the expense
of certain justice of the peace, who
lived years ago in a Massachusetts
town:
He carried about with him a slip of
paper on which was written the brief
marriage form which he used when
called upon to unite a pair IN the
bonds of matrimony. He never trust
ed himself to begin the ceremony with
out reference to this document.
One day, at a county fair in neigh
boring town, he was approached by an
elderly couple, who expressed their
wish to be married then and there.
After some conversation the esquire"
agreed to perform the ceremony on
the spot, and the three, accompanied
by a grown-up daughter of the man
and sister of the prospective bride,
stepped into convenient horse shed.
There the esquire" began fruitless
search for the important paper, grow
ing more and more perturbed as each
succeeding pocket played him false.
At last he abandoned the search.
"Are you willing to marry this wo-
man ?" he asked the man, who replied
with prompt eyes" w
"And you want to marry him ?"
asked the justice, turning to the bride.
~ do," said she, with promptness
equal to the bridegroom's.
"Then," said the squire" in his
most impressive tone, 81 hereby pro-
nounce you married, according to the
memorandum left at home in my other
trousers pocket"
