three persons were run over, and

people drive through the streets with
out regard 10 the safety of anyone.
Some Of the careless are boys, and
others are men. but there are those OF
all ages and sizes. Among the most
reckless drivers are men and boys on
Zoe and delivery wagons. The wonder
is that the mules are not driven to
death. II IL were anything but = mule,
ID probably would be. There Is moth.

or what is almost as bad, frightened

day some person is going to be run
over, and the offending driver shot
down for his carelessness, and there
will be plenty Of people to cay, ~

The turtle is usually considered q
slow-going creature, but the three
which ngure in this story were swift
enough to get out OF harms way.
They are pets of Mr.. Eckert, who
lives on a farm in Indiana. One day
flames broke out in Mr.. Eckert's
clearing and swept over the entire
field. After the fire had ragged awhile
be thought of his pets and went out
to see what had become of them. OF
course he was worried, fearing the
turtles had not had time to escape.
After long search he went q short
distance from the track covered by
the flames and discovered a freshly
dug hole. In il he found one of the
turtles down a considerable depth,
digging deeper with astonishing Wig
or. After walking around the other
two were finally located down along
a small stream, both in the water,
with only their heads sticking out.
When Mr.. Eckert appeared on the
scene they pushed their heads a little
farther out, as much as TO say:
"We're all right; go about your busi-
ness" Those turtles evidently knew
when to get out of dangers way

Inactive by Mcclellan from the middle
of May to the middle of June in the
Chickahominy swamps, and this
health was maintained in climate
that as early as April is described
as far worse than anything ever ex-
perienced in Arizona.
The campaign of our Oregon regf-
ment in Luzon has proved beyond a
doubt that a white man, whether he is
soldier or civilian, who takes decent
care of his health as to diet and exer-
else, is as sure of longevity as II he
had never left San Francisco. The
mortality from disease in the war for
the union was great, but it was not
greater among the northern-bred
troops than 1t was among the south
ern-bred troops. We learned this
fact from the statistics of our civil
war, and the Manila campaign has con-
firmed the conclusion that, other
things being equal, white man can
make war energetically and success
fully in any climate where any other
kind and color of man can live and
move and have his being."-Portland

No Jewish soldier in the Roumani-
an army can be promoted to a com
mission, however brave and loyal he
may be. The saying il that as long
as he is with the flag he is a sol
der. When he ceases to be, he be-
comes a Jew again. Even if he en-
lists for second term of service, he
does not, like others who do so, earn
a pension thereby. An army surgeon
ii n be a Jew, and the best surgeons
in Roumania are Jews as a rule, only
ranks as common soldier, whereas
his professional interiors rank as of
ficers. No Jews are admitted into
the military schools, and, however
high the scholastic or university dis
tinctions and grades of Jew, he has
to serve as a ''ranker" for three
years, instead of being let off as n
''volontaire" with one years service
Such is the treatment accorded to
the 10000 Jews belonging to the &C
tive army and reserves of the Rou
manian state.-National Review.

Sh1h tSND - LEAN NlfFlslNG LAUGH.
al, sorts of plans were laid to have
talk with her. Most of these mis-
carried through the vigilance of the
colonel and the girls father, but a
lieutenant and sergeant in our COM
pany managed in some way to let
the girl know they were her devoted
slaves. While the girl was rarely
seen or heard during the day. nearly
every night, just before tape, the
boys could hear her laugh. She had
a clear, ripping laugh, which came
down to the men in their tents TO
make many Of them homesick. They
could not understand why she should
be so quiet during the day, and laugh
so heartily at night, until the guards
explained that just before bedtime
the old colored auntie who served as
maid of all work related to the young
lady the gossip of the camp as to the
doings of her several adorers.
Then the laughs in the dark were
not quite pleasant to the men who
felt that they were being talked over,
and attempts to interpret the laughs
led to quarrel between our lieuten-
ant and sergeant, in which the lat
ter resented a light remark of the
former by blow. In the end the
sergeant was worsted, and the colonel
put both under arrest. While under
guard the sergeant was taken seri-
ously i'll, and was sent to the hos
pital. While there he had no more
devoted friend than the lieutenant,
but when he recovered the girl whose
laugh in the dark had caused the
trouble was gone. Sergeant and lieu
tenant became close friends both
were promoted, and "a Shiloh the
latter was killed and the former lost
an arm, and came in time to com.
mand the company.
