ABRAHAM HAARsCHER, SOLDIER


 ABRAHAM HAARSCHER, SOLDIER 'At Fort Sheridan yesterday Abra- ham Haarscher, soldier of the United States army of twenty years service, shot and killed himself near the post flagstaff. "-Chicago daily papers of Mo- vember 16.
 This brief little paragraph was prae- tically the only obituary notice given to one of the best soldiers who ever wore uniform and to man whose life, although it lay along the lines of the simple duties of an enlisted man, was in many ways remarkable. Abra ham Haarscher thirty-two years ago was a soldier of France. He was an Alsatian by birth and under the flag of
 the empire he fought through the
 Franco-Prussan war. At the end of the disastrous conflict, when Haar-
 scher found that his native province
 had become a spoil to the enemy, he be-
 came emblttered He left his country
 and came to America, enlisting in the
 United States army, as he could then
 do under the law, immediately upon
 his arrival Until the day of his death
 last week at Fort Sheridan Abraham
 Haarscher never passed an hour, save
 when on his occasional leaves of ab-
 eence, beyond sight of the flag that
 marked either camp or garrison of Un-
 cle Sam.
 Abraham Haarscher carried one rec- ord that is probably unique in the his
 tories of the armies of the world. In
 twenty nine years service, although a
 r1nHp1 nf
 telligence, he never wore the stripe of a non-commissioned officer He did not know what the inside of a guard house
 looked like from a prisoners point of view. There was no soldier in camp or barracks whose rifle and equipments were like unto his At guard mount the neatest soldier is always chosen for the duties of orderly to the command ing officer. When Haarscher was de- tailed for guard no man thought of competing with him. Time after time he was offered the position of non commissioned officer, and time after time he refused. Why no one ever knew. During the course of his twen- ty-nine years as one of Uncle Sam's soldiers Haarscher saw service in four different regiments, and against every form of foe that his adopted country had to face during the years covered by his French nativity. One night at a far northwestern garrison he was walking post as a sentinel upon a frail bridge thrown across a stream. The ends of the structure marked the ends of his beat. A storm arose in sudden fury. The stream rose rapidly and the bridge began to give way. Haarscher kept on walking his l

come. He laughed at them. For twen- ty-eight years he went on in his but lit- tie varying path of duty, with occa- sional turnings aside into the ways of pleasure. Then this supposedly con- firmed old bachelor soldier fell in love. He met the sister of former comrade. She was thirty years his junior. TO this girl he gave all the intensity of love that had marked through the long years his devotion to duty. He was ut terly changed. The soldier who had faced unharmed the bullets of Apache, Sioux and Spaniard was at last wound ed by tiny shaft from the bow of the pygmy Cupid. No woman ever had more devoted lover than that veteran. One night only last week he went to her home in Lake Forest and told her He spoke with the same spirit in which he had replied to the officer of the day when he was ordered from his post on the bridge on that awful night near the headwaters of the Missouri The girls answer was no, and Haarscher knew that she meant it.
 Private Haarscher left Lake Forest and went to his quarters at Fort Sher- idan. Tn few moments he left the barracks and walked across one corner of the parade ground. He took one last look at the flag futterlng at the masthead and ended his life with bull let. A towards death, some may say. No braver soldier than Abraham Haar- scher ever wore a uniform. This state ment is born not of belief only but of the knowledge of one who was glad to call him comrade Edward B. Clark in tha Chicago Record.

GAVE AWAY CANDY.

Howe & Stetson Distribute 2,500 Bags
 to the Children.
 At Howe & Stetson's Saturday 2,500 bags of Christmas candy were given to the children between the hours of 10 and 12 o'clock.
 The children had counted on this treat so much that when they assembled in the well known store long before 10 o'clock it was necessary to suspend business in order to make room for the great crowd. The candy was distribut- ed to the youngsters in the basement of the store, and 1t took three different re- lays to satisfy them, the crowds were so great.

TEA AND COFFEE.

 Tea Is Englands ripple,

 An interesting return dealing with the production and consumption of tea and coffee is among the Parliamentary papers issued.
 Tea we are told, is almost entirely of Asiatic production, and is exported mostly to Europe, although a certain amount is also sent to the United States, to Canada, and to Australasia. Of the countries that import tea, Eng land stands foremost: in fact the con- sumption of tea in this country ex- eeeds that of any other European countries and of the United States put together In the United Kingdom nearly six pounds of tea per head of the population are consumed. Sixteen years ago the per capita consumption amounted to, approximately five pounds. There is no other European country where such per capita con- sumption is approached Indeed, there is no other European country, with the exception of Holland. where the con- sumption of tea exceeds one pound per head. In Russia and in the United States also, which are the other two large tea-consuming countries, the con- sumption amounts to under one pound per head; in France the total quantity of tea consumed is under 100000 or .05 pound per head of the population, and in Germany it is 6,000.- 900 pounds, or Il of pound per head of the population.
 There IS also a considerable consum- ton of tea in Australasia and in Can ada; and although the total quantity

She Met Ruskin.

Mr.. Ruskin was taking morning
walk not long ago near Brentwood.
when he saw a woman seated on a
campstool making a sketch of the
house. and with a courteous grace
which is intensely his own he ad-
dressed her. ineuiring her reason for
choosing the house In question for her
subject. 1T is the house of the fam

wered. Have you met Ruskin?" she
was asked. NO indeed" she replied.
III l had would have deemed 1t one
OF the greatest privileges of my life."
Then, madam. IL you care to follow
me. l will show him TO YOU" In a
twinkling the stool and easel were
packed up, and the artist eagerly fol-
lowed the guide. To her surprise and
qualification, he led her up to the
house. and, entering. bade his guest
follow. which she readily did. On
marched the stranger into the draw
ing room; then, placing his back to
the fireplace. familiar attitude. he
exclaimed, to the amaZement of his
companion: Now, what do you think
