"W. B. Wallace, who recently re-
turned from the Philippine islands,
where he served for two wears in
the volunteer army and who was
appointed 10 regular army COM
mission, failed to pass the examina-
tion for entrance in but one study.
He took the examination at Fort
Leaven worth few days ago and
the examination was successful in
every point but mathematics, where
he fell slightly below the average.
Although this prevents his appoint
ment in the regular order of things
it is possible for him to succeed in
getting into the line Of regular Of
ficers in spite OF this, and his friends
will take steps in that direction. In
every department except that Of
mathematics Lieut.. Wallace passed
with the highest marks"
