Others Fall From Grace.
From the Savannah News.
That the army is not exactly conducive
to the upbuilding of splendid moral char
acters is pretty generally conceded, but
soldiers sometimes have things to say
about their spiritual advisers that induce
one to believe something of what Sam
Small had to say about chaplains-that
they are not very much good and are
merely "sops to public sentiment"
Many chaplains are as good men in the
army as out and the lives of strict and
upright Christianity they led before en-
tering the army have, been followed with
even greater precision than before they
doffed their clerical vestments to don the
soldiers coat with the cross on the shoul-
der strap. But there are others.
A regiment that arrived not long ago
from Cuba and passed on through to an
other city to be mustered out had what
the soldiers denominated a peach of a
chaplain He had been minister be-
fore entering the service, and it is PROB
able he will return to his congregation
when he is mustered out and be as sane
tinomious as requirements demand. But in
the army he was looked upon as a sort of
bon vivant and a rare old sport.
While the chaplain did not play poker,
he was yet a Judge of the great game
and it always gave him a pain to see a
novice losing golden opportunities with
good hands. He sat behind an officer,
young in the service, on the way up from
Cuba. Time had hung heavily, and a
quiet little siX-handed game had started
Pay day had been almost forgotten it
had been so long since the paymaster
had turned over the Grips new bills that
Uncle Sam uses to pay off his soldiers,
50 the limit was small
The chaplain was interested Perhaps in
his younger and sinful days he had bucked
the striped cat himself and a little of the
virtue of those days remained. He con-
tinued to inspect the hands as they were
dealt the officer in front of him. The lat
ter was not superstitious and made no

him, but finally he got three jacks. An

When one of the regiments discharged

Peel Heirlooms.

Application was made recently IN the
English courts by Sir Robert Peel,
Bart, for leave to sell certain family
heirlooms at Drayton manor, Of which
he is life tenant, on the ground that
the estates were so encumbered that
there was practically no money for the
maintenance of himself, his wife and
child. The application was opposed by
Viscount Peel and his son, who We're
entitled in remainder to the estates.
The Judges, after referring to Sir
Roberts bankruptcy and to the various
dealings he had entered into for the
purpose of raising money, said, so far
as he could see, Sir Robert had abso-
lutely nothing to depend upon except
such allowance as his friends might
make him. He had a son who was
tenant in entail while those who OPP
posed the application were Viscount
Peel, who, of course, was a much older
man than the applicant. The heirlooms
We're of extreme interest. The Judge
insisted that under these circumstances
he had to consider what principles had
been laid down by the court for the
exercise of his discretion.
He had first to consider the tenant
for life, while Sir Robert had shown
himself to be improvident and regard
less of others who were interested in
the heirlooms, by taking away and
selling valuable belongings, including a
picture of his grandmother, and he now
had no interest in the estates beyond
discretionary interest which the trus-
tees might give him. On the other
hand, however, he was only a young
man, 81 years of age, with a prospect
of a long life before him, and it was
not too late for him to redeem his past
career and to insure a career worthy of
the name he bears.
Then there was the infant to con-
slider, who would succeed some day to
the great name. 1t was obvious that
he must be brought up as beftted one
who might come into this great prop
erty, with all it's traditions. 1t could
not be for his interest that his mother
should be deprived of means or that his
father should be left entirely penniless
and dependent only upon relations. The
Judge said he could not help appreciat-
ing the feelings of Viscount Peel and
that part of the family. Indeed, he
felt very strongly with him in the mat
ter, but his duty was to face the stu
alton and to see what was for the ben
eft of all the persons interested, hav-
ing regard especially to those who were
earliest in the settlement. He did not
think it would be right to order a sale
as was asked and to denude this great
house entirely of all it's chattels, but
he directed a sale Of the silver, which
it had been stated would fetch about
100000, and of the two Vandyke pic
lures, which, he was told would not
hurt the collection, but with regard to
the remainder he directed an inquiry
as to what could be sold without Sc
riously interfering with the enjoyment
of Drayton manor as the family man

LATE MAJOR UPHAM.
What a Sacramento Friend Says of
the Veteran.

A press dispatch tells of the death of
Major Frank K. Upham at the Santa
Monica Soldiers Home yesterday, from
the accidental discharge of a pistol.
Major Upham was a soldier of the
Civil War, and has a son at West
Point and another in the navy. He was
nephew of Noah Brooks, the veteran
California newspaper writer, now D.
contributor to leading Eastern period
icals.
w. c. Fitch of this city was an old
and intimate friend of Major Upham,
who he says was one of the noblest
men he ever knew. He had a splendid
war record, and in 1895 was appointed
Treasurer of the Soldiers Home at
Santa Monica. At the time of his death
he was also Acting Quartermaster and
Commissary at that institution. His
son, F. B. Upham, was with Dewey at
Manila and is now on his way home for
a visit to his parents.
