An Army Type.

In their newly awakened interest in

take off their hats to the memory of
the late Capt. Allyn Cspron. He was

never come to him to dazzle the public
by some special act of bravery or of
military skill. Long service had not
brought to him high rank. But he
performed faithfully the duty near
est to his hand, and in
this he was a type of the
plain, everyday regular army officers,
the men without influence, patient and
bark working, who have been steadily
drilling and training our soldiers for
the last quarter of century and have
brought them to that splendid state of
efficiency which won its browning
triumph at Santiago. For Santiago
was the triumph of the captains and
lieutenants of our regular army, more
truly than of the higher officers.
Lieut.. Thaddeus 81. Capron, a volun
teer private of 1861, reached the rank
of ma or in four years of continuous SER

While in command of a battery.
Capt. Allyn Capron, who has just
died was the son of tie Mexican war
Capron. Born in the army, appointed
as q soldiers son to West Point, the
story of his life up to the beginning of
this year is told in the simple state

years in sthe three grades of second

and instructing the men and under his
charge, winning high praise from his
superior officers, but small recognition
from his country. Finally came war
and Santiago and the story of Capron's
battery at Ell Caney is familiar to all
who have followed the movements of
the war
But that is not all. Not only his own
life work and his life itself did Capt.
CaprOn give to his country, but two
sons also. Almost the first victim of

Such are the kind of men who have
made our army. 1t is time the country

ize that they could do much more and
better work if the red tape and bar
nacles were swept out of the army sys-
