PAY OF SPANISH SOLDIERS.
The Colonels Get the Money in Lump
and the Privates Never
See 1t.

Spanish army accounts are strangely
and wonderfully made. From their
absence of exactness and disregard Of
all detail one would certainly be led
10 believe that the bookkeeping depart
ment of the Madrid war Office has verv
| few clerks in its employ. A certain
| amount OF money is allowed to each
regiment and charged in gross to the
colonel, who is solely responsible for
its disbursement.
According to an explanation made
recently by the marquis of Montoro,
secretary of the treasury in Havana.
this lump sum of money covers the en-
tire expenses of the regiment, from
uniforms and equipment to soldiers
pay. Each regimental colonel is his
own bookkeeper and payniaster He
practically sells to his soldiers at his
own price everything that they have
while they are i'll the service of Spain.
The pay of common soldier is about
three dollars N gold per month.
Against this is charged whatever he
wishes to buy. For example, suppose
soldier needs new pair of shoes, he
makes his wants known w his colonel,
who hands him pair an. tSkes three
or four dollars out of HIS wages. The
shoes may not have cost tae colonel
more than $3.50. which he paid for ont
of the regimental funds. Out OF one
of his own men, who has left home and
family and every thing for his country,
he has made 100 per cent. by turning
over government capital.
When the time for final settlement
comes the soldier is quietly told that
there Is nothing to his credit on the
books Of the regiment; that his great
and good government has taken care
of him for three years, and has allowed
him the privilege of fighting for it.
and that If he doesn't have proper
sense OF gratitude he is base traitor,
who isn't worthy to be called Span
lard, an argument which has hereto
fore worked very well. But this is not
all the trouble. Each regiment is
charged with considerable sum of
money for hospital services, and the
colonel deducts a proportionate per
centage from each soldiers pay for
that purpose. Another percentage is
deducted for what in Spanish book
keeping is called ''incidentaIs.-C
cago Inter Ocean.

"A RICH rRIzE.
Throwing Dice for $tOO,O00-In one
Year n New York Man Hns
Won gSO,OOO.

A man in New York, who has evident
ly studied well the science of proba-
b.lities, has invented mos: fascin-
ating game Of chance whereby he Is
largely profting. He deposited in the
| Chemical national bank $500 and made
check against 1t which was duly cer-
titled. This check he offered to the man
who would throw five skies with dice
"cne flop" out of the box, hav.ng paid
80 cents for the privilege of throwing.
That the dice might not be handled
or juggled, they were placed inside q
thick bell glass resting on base, the
top of which was over heavy spring
operated by lever. The dice and ma
chine were examined by committee of
reputable men and the whole securely
sealed When man wanted to throw
against the check he paid so cents.
pulled down the lever, released it, and
the dice sprang into the air against the
top of the glass and fell back again.
The game has been in operation almost
year, and no one has won the check.
II that time 100000 throws have been
made. AS the fund has grown he check
has been increased, until new ii calls
for $100, 900, and the man who operates
the check has pocketed $4,000. There
is no restriction against his withdraw
iLg his check and closing the game any
time he desires, but it is so profitable
that he will hardly do so. The sum of
money to be won is so large that the
dice machine is kept busy all the time.
1t is located in barroom in lower
Broadway, near Wall street, and is pat
ronized by brokers and their rks.
A travelling man from New York.
speaking of it, said:
1T is very fascinating pursuit, try
ing to shake five skies for 100000. /
have spent almost $16O in the game my
self, and some of those Wall street men
have spent thousands of dollars agafnsy
1t. One afternoon was in there and a
young fellow from the clearing house
monopolized the machine until the
place was closed up at night. AS fast
as he could pull down the lever and the
dice fall he pulled it again, and the man
in charge kept books on him. don't
know how many times he threw, but
it must have been thousands, and was
told that he hadn't thrown five of any
number in all that time"
The game is honest. It's the per-
cen;age that beats the player. Tie
mathematical probability of i've skies
being thrown at once is as one to 7.766.
but in this case 100000 throws have
been made withou. winning Chica-
go Inter Ocean.

The Indian Is Not sullen.

For the Indian is not, as the popula,
idea figures him, stolid, taciturn, or even
sullen in his everyday life. He may be
shy and silent in the presence of stran.
gers, but in his home life he is talka-
tive-eager to give and receive the
rews, and to gossip about it. He is of a
merry, laughter-loving people, and
likes to make good-natured fun of an
others peculiarities. Thus, one of her
companions may jeeringly call very
slender woman the shadow Of mocca-
sin string. Once, on the prairie, in the
bright, hot sunlight, l heard an Indian
say 10 another who was very stout:
MY friend. stand still for little
while. want 70 sit down in the shade
and cool off," Some years ago was OIL
the reservation of tribe known as the
Big Bellies--Gros Ventres-at Fort
Belknap, Mont; and while l was there
new agent came TO them. He was a
fat man, and one of the Indians, who
met the agent for the first time in my
presence, said, as he shook hands with
him: "Ah, you are one of our own peo-
pie. You, too, are Big Belly George

APPLE MERINGUE.
This Is an Inexpensive Dessert Thai
liz Good Any Season of the
Year.

This is a delicious and inexpensive
dessert Simmer until tender six firm
tart apples which have been ccred and
peeled. Put them in orceiairlined
saucepan with a sirup made OF half a
cupful of water and half a cnpful oil
sugar. Cover them closely and let them
cook on the top Of the stove or in the
oven. Remove the cover in either case
two or three times TO baste the top Of
the apples with the sirup in which they
are cooking. They should be tender
CROUCH 10 be easily, pierced with a
straw. Lift them up one by one on a
plate and set them away TO cool. While
they are cooking boil down the peelings
and cores Of the apples in wate> with
half dozen other apples cut in bits
without removing the peeling and cores
Strain the juice of the apples after they
are boiled tender, pressing it through
bag. Boil it down 20 minutes, add a
eupful of sugar for every cupful OF
juice, and boil it to jelly. After filing
the cores of the apples with this jelly
and glazing them with it let them cool
again. when the jelly should be firm.
They are very nice for supper. as they
are served with whipped cream. They
may be made into merngue by covering
them with meringue made of the
whites of three eggs beaten to a stiff
froth with three tab,espoonfuls Of pow
dered sugar. Let the meringue that
covers the apples also cover the edge of
the pate they rest on. Set the plate
also on a block Of wood. Dredge the
meringue over the apples thickly with
powdered sugar. and let it brown deli
cately for ten minutes. If this work Is
properly done the jelly in the apples
will not be melted. The plate should be
very thoroughly covered with the
meringue.-N. Y. Tribune.

NAME PROVES A POSER.
Correct Pronuncia tion of n Judicial
Pntronymic Puzzles Many
Legal Luminaries.

Many Chicago attorneys, finding
their cases for the first time on the cal
endar of Judge Slough, one of the Wis
iting jurists who are assisting in the
work of the superior court, find them
selves puzzled as to the pronunciation
of the judges name.
How do you pronounce his name,
anyway" said Lawyer Barrow to Law
yer Burres the other day. rs it Slough
to rhyme with tough?"
No." said Burres. II think it is
Slough to rhyme with dough-"
rs it?" said Lawyer Stone. II
thought it was Slough to rhyme with
cough; at least 1 always speak of him
as Judge 'Stoff.'"
Il guess I'm wrong, then" said Law
yer Myers. Il always call him Slough
to rhyme with through-.Judge Stoo,
you know"
well, maybe all of you are right"
said Lawyer Maxwell, but supposed
his name rhymed with plow."
Maybe it rhymes with hiccough, aft
er ALL" rejoined Barrow. "and is pro-
nounced Supp"
We'll. what | want to know in
sisted Lawyer Myers, ''is how l should
address him-what should call him?"
"Oh, that's easy" replied Barrow.
''Call him your honor"
Fully as much uncertainty is felt by
many attorneys as to the pronuncia-
tion of the name Of the newly-elected
Judge Chytraus. Among the different
pronunciations heard are "Chit-rauss.n
"Chy-trauss," "Kitt-rauss," Ky
trauss," "Chee-trauss," "kee-trauss,"
"Chit-ra-us,' "Kit-ra-us," "Chy-tra-us,'
"Kee-tra-us, "Ky-tra-us." The correct
pronunciation is "Kee-tra-us
Such perplexing problems in proper
names in cosmopolitan Chicago remind
one of the remark said TO have been
made By Voltaire when he was told that
the word "ague' had two syllables and
the word plague" only one. Disgusted
with his attempt to master the mystery
Of English pronunciation. he ex
claimed:
Il wish one half the English had the
ague and the other half the plague. -
