George A. Custer and Thomas l..
.Rosser were chums and classmates at
West Point Military Academy, relates
a writer in Success. They left that in
stitution in 1851, the one to enter the
Union and the other the Confederate
army. Both proved their skill and valor
on a score of battlefields. The end of
the war, however, found Rosser penni-
less, with a wife and children depend
ent upon him for support. There were
no openings in the South, but employ
ment must be had. He made his way
to the Northwest and secured work
on the Northern Pacific Railway, thea
in course of construction. One day.
Gen. Custer. riding along the line of
the road, noticed a section boss whose
face seemed strangely familiar.
Isn't your name Rosser?" he finally
asked.
''Why, Custer, how are your" said
Rosser, looking up from his work.
Thus they met for the first time
ed, the next day, on the chief engineer
of the road.
There is a man named Rosser," said
he, under you as construction boss"
Yes, and one of the best l ever had.
Anything wrong about him?"
mo" replied Custer, but he was at
West Point with me, and afterwards
became a major general of cavalry I'M
der the Confederacy. Can't you give
him something better than the work he
is doing?' .-r
why, have been looking for just
such a man. said the engineer. y
And so Rosser, through Custer
kindly Offices became second in com
mand of the engineer corps. A few
months later he was promoted to be
chief engineer. He made good use of
the opportunities his position afforded
for profitable investment, and to-day
is accounted one of the wealthy men
of his native Virginia.

The Chicago Chronicle (Dem.) says:
THE quarrel between Mr.. Skaters

Schwab. The canned goods industry
of the United States now affects in

which is not now on the market in
sealed tin ready as a rule for con-
sumption without additional prepara-

high enough. Now that interruption of
the supply of cans is to raise the

share of the rest of mankind will cry
plague upon both Mr.. Shaffer and Mr..
Schwab."

Newport. r. l.. held its third annual
festival in honor of the North Atlantic
squadron of the navy the other day.
The decorations were elaborate. Among
them were portraits of famous naval
commanders. with the exception of Ad-
miral Schley. SIMPSONS picture was
hung conspicuously in many windows.
That was to have been expected in
Newport. But it seems that the dis
elimination of the decorators in favor
of the rear admiral who was ten miles
in the rear at the battle of Santiago
did not please the populace. They no.
ticed the absence of Schleys picture,
and got angry about it. A number of
paraders went through the streets at
lacking the pictures of Sampson
wherever they could be found. Many
pictures were torn to pieces, and sew
eral windows were smashed to get TO
the offending portraits.

A CHANCE FOR CARTER.

Former Capt. Carter has always con-
tended that in a civil trial he would be
able to show his innocence of the crime
for which he was convicted and is now
serving out a sentence in the Leaven-
worth military prison. Will not the
suit which District Attorney Erwin has
begun for possession of the money al
legged to have been stolen by him
give him the opportunity he has
been wanting to show that he is guilt
less of the crime for which he is now
being punished?
The contention of the government is
that the money, which Carter turned
over to his uncle and brother, when it
became certain that he would be con-
victed, was obtained from the govern
ment by corrupt methods. This will
have to be proven before the govern
ment can get judgement for the mon
ey In order to obtain a Judgment it
will have to be shown that there was a
conspiracy between Carter and the gov
eminent contractors.
Will Carter be given his freedom for

prepare his case? 1t is hardly probable.
He has only about two years more
to serve, and the suit for the possess
sion of the money can wait that long
The chances are that Mr.. Erwin did not
| bring the suit at this time with the
view of pressing 1t to trial at once, but
to prevent the money from being put
out of reach of the courts.
| 1t is not reasonable to suppose that
Mr.. Erwin would care to try the civil
case against Carter before Greene and
Gaynor, the indicted contractors, had
no one can predict with any degree
| OF certainty. They have been ordered
! by the United States Court for the
Southern District of New York to re-
port to the United States Court in Sa-
vannah fer trial, but they appealed to
the United States Supreme Court from
that decision. 1t is certain that the
case will not be reached before October,
| If so soon, and If the decision should
be against them they would, in all
probability. find other means for keep
ing away from this city. All things
considered. there is no probability that
the suit for the money alleged to have
been stolen from the government by
! Carter, viii be pressed to a trial before
Carter is a free man. Then he will be
in position to make good his promise
| to show his innocence in civil court.

Many wild birds are accorded a
certain amount of protection by law in
Great Britain, and the crusade against
the use of feathers for millinery pur-

prepared a bill, to be shortly introduce

which is "the plumage, skin or body
of any bird named in the schedule. ="
The schedule includes the egret, or
female white heron, the bird of para
disc, humming bird Impeyan pleas

will be seen that an attempt is to be
made towards the preservation of birds
other than natives, and IL the bill
passes, IL will, no doubt. be the entering
wedge for further legislation. Some op-
position to the measure is expected,
and this will be probably directed
against the inclusion of the exotics
rather than native terms, kittiwake
gulls and kingfishers, but IL will have
powerful backing. There is a rising
sentiment towards the same laudable
object in this country and some states

feminine conscience seems to be hard
