Walter T. was G years old. He never
had seen the ocean. We We're 10 spend
the summer at tho seaside, and Walter
had a new bathing suit Every boy in
the block was invited into the house tc
see him try it ON, and one day we dis
covered him IN the bathtub surrounded
by an adnIiring group of juveniles, tc
whom he was discoursing about how he
would dive from the end of the iron
pier when he reached the ocean. When
the young man, however, saw the ocean,
with the great waves rolling on the
beach, he could not be induced to &c
near it and positively refused to put ON
his bathing suit.
One day his father offered him 80
cents if he would put ON his suit and
get wet all over once. He wanted the
money very much, so hei finally consent

One is often discouraged when the
furs that have been put away for a sea-
son are unpacked, because they have an
unkempt, mussed appearance. To rem

can bear it, rub it into the fur, beat the
fur slightly with a small switch, and
then brush the fur with a rather stiff
brush. The appearance of the fur will
be greatly improved by this treatment.

new electric fire control system were also
your labors. While your service every
where has been of the highest character
you have especially illustrated that de-
yelopment of character necessary to eX-
pert work by your devotion as officers
and your obedience as men, under the
trying and monotonous conditions OF
camp and garrison life, where the soldier
and officer are fashioned day by day for
the supreme moment of BATTLE. The les
sons there learned have served you well.

Adjutant General Corbin said last night
that he expected that in a few days the
American Commission in Cuba will make

The trouble at present is the very high
duty on food supplies, and an effort is

ment to permit the necessaries of life.

Cuban ports free of duty.
There is one large vessel now lying at
anchor in the harbor waiting for permis-
sion to unload her great cargo or food
supplies, and thereby relieve the suffer-
ing Cubans, but without the consent of
the Spanish government the cargo can
not be unloaded unless a duty amount
ing to about 100000 on the cargo is paid

MISSING FROM THE ROLLS.
Many Soldiers Whose Whereabouts
Are Entirely Unknown.

Over a score of volunteer soldiers have
disappeared from the commands since the
close of the war, and no trace can be
found of them, despite the efforts of the
War Department. The soldiers were miss
ed when their regiments broke camp,
and in nearly every case the lost volun-
teer had been in the camp hospitals.
Sixteen men are missing from one regi-
ment alone, the Fourth Pennsylvania.
and for nearly a month no trace of them
has been discovered.
There are twenty-five volunteer soldiers
in ST. Elizabeth at present. These men
are supposed to be insane, and, owing to
the iron bound secrecy preserved at that
institution the officials have even refus-
ed to make public the names or COM
mandS of these soldiers.
The Times discovered one missing SOL
dieT in St. EIZabeths where he had
been sent from Camp Thomas. The War
Department had hunted for this man for
weeks, and so negligent were the medical
officials who had the case in charge at
Camp Thomas that no trace was found
of the man.
The War Department viii make imme-
diate investigation into the cases now at
ST. Elizabeths, and il is expected that
many Of those now missing will be dis
covered in that institution.

Indian Head is TO have a factory where
the Government will manufacture smoke
less powder. An appropriation was made
for this purpose by Congress at the last
session. and the work of building the fac
tory has been begun. The establishment
will be larger than any other smokeiess

when in operation, be under control OF
Lieut.. Bernadou, an expert in ordnance
and ordnance supplies. 1t is expected
that the factory will produce 5000 pounds
of powder daily.
The War Department has provided the
Ordnance Department with sufficient
supply of smokeless powder cartridges
for guns of 40 caliber, to be used in actual
operations only. Target practice will as
hitherto be conducted with black powder.
The War Department, in an order, di-
