Gave Him a Hot Shot.

Although an Irishman by birth, Sen
ator William ]. Sewell of New Jersey
is of rather serious turn of mind and
seldom INDUCES in jokes, although he
would not be an Irishman unless he
possessed a sense of humor. He was
born in 1885, came to this country at
an early age and was engaged in BUSH
ness at the outbreak of the civil war.
He enlisted in the northern army, was
given a captainss commission. and at
the close of the war was a major gen.
eral In 1872 he actively entered pol
itics and, after being for several terms
a state senator. he was elected to the
United States senate. He was chair
man of the New Jersey delegation at
seven consecutive national conven-
ventions, including that of 1900.
General Sewel1 was for some time
actively interested in railroad affairs
and once, when he was holding an i'm
portant Office in one of the large trunk
lines a political enemy came to him
in a somewhat shamefaced way and
said:
General, should like to have trans
portation for myself and family to Chi
cago."
The two political enemies eyed each
other for a moment, and then General
Sewell called bis private secretary and
told him to make out the passes to
Chicago. The politician accepted them,
expressed his thanks and departed But
in a few minutes he returned, exclaim-
ing:
why, General, these do not say to
Chicago and return,"
-'Of course not" exclaimed the gem
era1. IT want to get you out of the
state and I'm not interested in your
getting back.''-Chicago Chronicle.

A case that has aroused considerable
comment in military and civil circles
in Berlin is the murder of captain of
the infantry by a brother officer. Two
officers after mess had little recontre,
which must, according to military ETH
quette, have terminated in a duel. To
hinder this. Lieut.. Ruger, brother of
one of the disputants, went to the cap
tain's rooms and asked to see him.
On that gentleman entering the room
the lieutenant drew a revolver and
shot him dead in the presence of two
more officers. The mans excuse is
that he wanted to prevent the duel.
which would have made the family
unhappy. Kruger is in his right mind.
and is considered by the public at
large clear case of premeditated muir
der, for which civilian in Berlin
would have lost his head, that being
the form of capital punishment in Ger
many. AS it is, he has been sentenced
to twelve years hard labor with, or
course, every prospect of communication.

New Recruits Are Drilled.

Colonel w. NJ Van Horn. the COM
handing officer of the new Twenty
ninth infantry regiment authorized by
the army reorganization bill. has been
at Fort Sheridan, Ill, busy drilling his
forces and working the raw material
into form. Nearly 500 recruits for the
new regiment have already been Sc
cured, and it is expected that the quota
will be filled before May L. He reports
that SO per cent of the men enlisted
thus far are American born. This is
quite remarkable in view of the fact
that in the regiments organized two
years ago rs per cent of the men enlist
ed were of foreign birth. A band of
thirty pieces will be organized and
musicians are in great demand at Fort
Sheridan in consequence. A number
of men who have enlisted after the
expiration of their first term of service
are being given appointments as non
commissioned officers of the new regi-
ment.

The Gupboat Remington.

Orders have been issued for the rel
pairs necessary on the gunboat Ben
nington to be made at Hongkong in
stead of having the vessel return to
this country, as has been the custom
when ship on foreign station was
found in need of an overhauling. This
policy of repairing vessels of the navy
on the Asiatic station at Hongkong is
meeting with some opposition in the
construction corps of the navy 1t is
argued that, although the repairs can
be made somewhat cheaper on account
of the little expense entailed by the
employment of Chinese labor, the ex-
pense in the end will be far greater
to the government. because of the poor
quality of the work.

When the colonies of Gov. Yates

new uniforms and their soldierly forms

was watching them said:

pier were a number of privates of the
Sixth artillery, then stationed at the
fortress, taking their ease in the warm
sun on boxes and bales, awaiting the
arrival of the Newport boat.
"A private. wiping the perspiration
from his brow, joined the group and
said: I've had dickens of a time
getting out here. 1 never saw so many
colonies in my life. Every ten steps
on the way down the street and out on
the pier 1 ran into a fellow with the
eagles on his shoulders, and l had to
line up and salute. Some of them
seemed to think 1 was out without a
permit, for they would look at me in
stead of recognizing my salute. 1t

posed that much meat in warm CHI
mates is not good thing, but one of
the ablest army surgeons now declares
that under the hot sun the carbon in
a white mans blood is speedily oxidiz-
ed and burned up by the sun and a
great deal of meat must be eaten to
supply the waste. The meat compon-
ent of the ration is, accordingly, likely
to be increased.
