 This is remindful of Sergeant Flaw ley's story of Chaplain- Brown, who said nothing. saved wood and stole mules when he thought 1t was good for the public service, and was after ward received with open arms in New York. This notorious criminal was evsn invited to preach in the most ex- elusive churches and the fashionable thronged to hear and see him the same as if he had been one of the thieves cn Calvary.
 They even pressed him to oreturn from Prescott and preach to them again. He did so and they were delighted, all cf which proves that crime is not without appreciation in this sinful world.
 But this is Sergeant Hawley's story: The boys were lying in the trenches at the base of San Juan. There was a need of everything except an order to charge The boys were hungry, some were sick. others were dead ana dying from the bullets>of sharpshoot- efs.--There was demand for lint for the wounded and for food. Chaplain Brown, who had been looking after the spiritual wei fare Of the boys, became interested in their earthly needs. If something g wre not done soon some of the boys whom he had been trying to save from hell would certainly go somewhere, al- most certainly to heaven, because their lives were ebbing in antagonism to Spain. They needed supplies. Chap lain Brown inquired and learned that there were supplies with put limit at Siboney. They could not be gotten to the front for want Of transportation He quit the firing line; he quit his spiritual ministrat1on; it mattersd not now whether Spain were conquered CT souls were saved. It was all import ant that the earthly sufferings of the Rough Riders should ba relieved The chaplain hunted around and found seven government mules which he or nobody else he could find had authority to take. But he did take them and made other trarsgressors help him. They went to Siboney and came back laden with supplies for the hungry, ths wounded, tle dying in the trenches.
 Here is another exploit of the out law chaplain which has already been published and which came under the notice of Sergeant Hawley, who, by the way, saw all the things hereinafter related: At particularly hot season Chaplain Brown quit his spiritual du- ties and grabbed gun, which he be- gan discharging in the direction of the Spanish firing line. Roosevelt, who is net a stickler for amenities, came along and toId the chaplain he was exceeding his jurisdiction. The chap lain replied without bringing his gun to rest or other ceremony: "I'm needed here," which was an incontrC- vertible paraphrase of the Masters in junction: Whatever thy hand find eth to do, do it with thy might
 These incidents of Chaplain Brown are related only tc' show that he was different kind of Christian from the loud mouthed Mcintyre, who did noth- ing at all and came back to deliver vainglorious lectures upon the things which he thought he SAW. If it were not for the Chaplain Browns of Ari- zona, the conduct of the Chaplain Mo IntyreS would naturally induce tn 3 government to believe that the army and navy would be better off without chaplains.
