That is the case of Pastor Hanna of
New York reported by DR.. Boris Sidis

case is that Mr.. Washburn always re-
membered his name. This may be ac-
counted for in this way. When he en-

name was found in papers on his per-
son. During his stay and at his dis
charge from the hospita! he was called

PIucky Fighting Of Macabebe Scouts.

Persons in search of adventure still

the contents of the Mail Items of the
Army and Navy Journal.
The kind Of fighting stuff the Maca-
bcbes are made of was shown in a re-

in North Central Luzon. With
Lacuna were the rcncgades Pagan and
Nelson. and the prospect of squaring
accounts with those two traitors gave Il
peculiar Zcst to the cavalrymen's pur-
suit. Seven miles before they got TO
close quarters they had to dismount
and creep up the steep hills, dragging
their supplies along. until they finally
came to Il ravinc surrounded by steep
hills. which enabled the enemy to pour
Il whitening fire from three sides at our
Een. without the latter being able to
get any position where they could sue
ccssfully stand Off the enemy. our
nIcn stood their ground for about four
hours. and then the enemy withdrew.
Casualties on our side: Three killed,
eleven wounded and two missing. Only
two of the Fourth Cavalry We're among
the wounded, the rest being Maca
bcbes. During the conflict the rene

Previous to the surrender of Quentin

Gordon in his two weeks operations

Captain Gordon discovered how Salas

Colby defeated the Watervillc local
team for the scond time on the college
field, Saturday afternoon. The game
was not SO close or as exciting as the
first but was a good one. y home run

netted four scores for the Collegians
and gave rise to an unlimited amount
Of discussion. 1t would be interesting
to know just how many words Eddie
Osborne will utter in explaining just
why he called it 4 fair ball. The ma
Jority of those on the ground consider
ed it a foul but it was u matter of
Judgment and was called 4 fair ball.
1t was 4 long clean drive over the
fence in right field To many it looked
as If disappeared over the fence in foul
ground. but Mr.. Osborne had as good
point of view as any one and he de-
clered it i fair ball. The bases were
full at the time and this cleared them
and recorded q home run for Allen.
Colby would have won without this as
sistartce. but not by so large a score.
Bushey pitched n good game and
kept the hits scattered up to the sixth
inning. Saunders was first man up in
this inning. and went out on fly to
Locke. Newenham followed with a
clean threc-bagger. Meserve took q
double and CowinS single. league

many large salaried offices waiting for
the right man. Integrity, honesty
obedience are rare qualities, and de-
mand today Il higher premium than
ever. In fact, all business houses are
looking for the right boy as they have
never looked before.
The superintendent of one of the
largest department stores in the coun-
| try engaged a lad of fifteen in the most
subordinate capacity, at wages of three
dollars a week. The boy was at the
| bottom of the ladder. at the very posi-
| ton where the heads of departments
| in that store had started years before.
The head OF the department where
he was stationed watched him care
fully day by day. and reported upon
him most iavorably. He said: Here
is. at last. the young fellow we have
| been looking for" The next in author
| ity took his turn in watching the
lad. He became profoundly impressed
with the boys integrity, his loyalty,
| and commenced him to the head of the
| firm.
| The firm had consultat ton over the
boy. How could that lad suspect that
gentleman whom he hardly ever saw,
whom he felt that he was absolutely
| insignificant, would be watching him
with almost as much care as if he had
been the son of the senior partner? The
| head of the firm said:
We will give him six months, and
If he stands the test we will advance
him rapidly" The six months were
almost up. So interested had the
superintendent of the store become in
the youthful prodigy that he personally
took to watching him day by day
one morning the superintendent no.
ticed the boy hiding something in his
pocket. He stopped him.
What have you there?" he said to
the lad. The boy paled and blushed
"Oh, nothing" he said. He was
asked to turn his pockets inside out,
and upon him WAS discovered twenty
| five cents in change, which he had Just
| pilfered.
| The boy was Immediately dismissed.
| He had lost his chance of high prefer
ment. of honor. of dignity, or respect
and even of wealth, for temptation

had sold his character for twenty-five
cents.-Youth's Companion.
