Deliveries of the new 3 per cent
United States war bonds have natur-
ally been somewhat slow ON account
of the multitude of individual sub

INTELLIGENT BUT UNDECoRA-
TIVE AMERICAN SOLDIER
Our o@cers Are Plain Compared With
the Bedecked Tommy Atkins,
i but They Are Fighters

The American army is not an orna-
mental Institution. AS my friend the first
lieutenant says:
Uncle Sam don't keep any soldiers for
parlor ornaments. He has his army get
out in the wood yard, where they hustle"
My friend the lieutenant is, personally,
by no means decorative. He did not
shave this morning; rather fancy that
he did not shave yesterday. He has a
grizzling mustache, for he IS, should
say, 40 years Of age; his face IS tanned,
not with the new surface brown tan Of
the Florida sun, but tanned three inches
deep with time and all kinds of weather.
He wears his black-braided uniform coat
the thin shoulder strap with the single
bar, which denotes his rank, is the only
touch Of millinery about him-unbutton-
ed. showing his colored cotton shirt. His
SLOUGH felt hat, denteds in at! the top and
pinched in at the sides, hangs on the back
proturbance of his head, SO that its wide
circle Of brim forms a frame for his jolly,
round, clean shaver face.

agents to New York twice a yearl and by

said lawyer yesterday. II ordered a suit
for summer wear, and the clothes were de-
livered on the first Of May. That tailor
knew nothing about me, and T. have not
received his bill yet. His faith in one is
pleasant. Of course, and it is beyond that
ever exhibited by New York tailor"
The Englishman was simply relying on
the fact that the lawyer had been INTRO
duced by a man who had paid him prompt
ly and experience had taught him that 1t
was safe practice. Moreover, he was
charging nearly so more for the suit than
he would dare to charge in London The
question Of English or American clothes
is decided by balancing the cloth and cut of
the former against the finish OF the latter.
The American tailor finishes his clothes
with an attention to detail that IL unknown

fraternity in this city rejoiced several
years ago when the Duke of Marlborough
had his wedding clothes made by New
York tailor, and they cited It as proof
that better clothes were made here than
in London. They admitted, however, that
they could not make their clothes as cheap
ly as did the English tailor, because Of the
extra care in finishing, to say nothing Of the
margin that must be added to the cost to

ligence. That, to the European view,
seems almost horrible.
How, you wonder, can an officer exer-
else complete command over the aggre-
cation of separate individualities? What
he wants, as you have always known for
certain, Is q number of men reduced by
long pressure of the drill Instructors
pulping machine into condition in which
they will do just as they are told exactly
as they have been taught to do it.
I questioned my lieutenant upon this
point
"Why, my boy" said he "that's just
it-intelligence. The American soldier
has more intelligence than amy soldier
in the world, just because he is expected
to have more. He can't point his toes like
Boston gosling, because he don't have
to. He don't have to learn any parlor
tricks like that, nor to dress himself up
in parlor clothes, because he don't have
any kings or emperors to come and amuse
themselves looking at him. But he's ex-
pected to be intelligent, because he needs
intelligence In his business, and he's
taught to be daisy shot and daisy
horseman, and If you'll give me an in
trenched position and regiment of our
boys, III hold out for show down against
any infantry force you can bring gainst
me.
Eyes, stree! With twenty Of the boys
the major over there held off. more than
five hundred Indians up in the White val
ley for three days-and that was after
he'd been corralled and had every horse
in the troop shot down. Why did he do
it? Because every boy used his intelli-
gence as we'll as his rifle"
This morning saw six feet of muscle
stretched out on the grass under a tree.
It had a cigarette in its mouth, its hat
brim drawn over its eyes, and one knee
bent to make rest for the other leg
An officer came by, and I looked up to
see what the soldier would do. He sa-
luted. But he saluted without troubling
to get up. He just lay there. on the fiat
Of his back and saluted. I pointed out
this grave shortcoming to my grizzled
lieutenant. I regret to say that he failed
entirely to see the point.
"Why should he salute any more than
he does?" he asked. whats the good OF
it anyway? That fellow will go through
hell and back again If tell him to- He's
done it before yesterday, and he'll do it
again after tomorrow, and so long as he'll
do that l. don't give a rap to have him
hitting himself on the eyebrow every time
l go by"
No, they are not at all ornamental, these
American soldiers, neither officers nor
men. But as an example aft fine, frank,
straight, honest, kindly, lovable gentle
man, strong and brave and upright, the
American officer commands my enthusi-
astic respect; and as to the men-well,

WEAK BROWN EYES WIFE
The Champin Marksman Of the United
States Army Has Them

The theory that a blue eye shoots best
has been exploded. The champion marks
man of the United States army has brown
eyes. With these two brown eyes-he
shoots with both eyes open--he has beaten
all shooting records at all distances, in all
positions and under all circumstances. The
champion marksman is at Tampa Fla.
with the Sixteenth infantry. His one bronze
medal and his six gold ones bear the name
Of Richard N. Davidson. These medals tes-
tify that he is the best shot in the whole
United States army. His comrades are
proud of him and are willing to pit him
against the world. Davidson enlisted in
1886. In 1890 he won a third-class depart
ment bronze medal for craftsmanship. His
comrades guyed him, saying all his time
would be occupied in furnishing his medal,
whereupon Davidson replied that he would
win a medal that would not need bur-
nishing.
And he did.
In 1891 he won the first gold medal in the
team belonging to the department Of the
Platte. In IN No AxAih aAff1aA "a III nsAt

1t is years since any regiment has been
gathered together as the regiments are
gathered here. The nature Of the army's
ordinary duties demands that the regi-
rnents should be split up into
small detachments stationed hundreds

men who have been accustomed only to

behave, now that, for the first time, they
are called upon to fight in large combina-
