General Greene's Discipline.

General Francis Vinton Greene was
one of the strictest disciplinarians in
all the army that went out to fight
Spain. He was in command of the Sew
enty-frst regiment, N. G. N. Y, at
Camp Black, near Hampstead, N. Y.
AS the regiment was breaking camp
on the way to the front an old gentle
man interrupted General Greene, who
was talking with the writer. IN.
''Sir," he said, "will you grant brief
leave of absence to Mr.. Blank, a pri-
vate in this regiment? He is son of
the late Colonel Blank Of the army.
His mother is dying, and she is asking
for her boy. He will join his command
at Tampa"
II am very sorry, SIR" replied Gen
eral Greene, ''but it will be impossible
to deviate in any case from the rule
by which we are all bound. My own
father lies dying at home, yet cannot
go to him."
And General Greene, as a matter of
fact, did not for many weeks see his
father, who died before the Spanish
war was ended.

Prismatic CoIors.

Mrs. Opie, the widow of the great
portrait painter, whom some enc has
called the INSPIRED peasant" never,
even in her old age, lost her love of
bright colors. A little girl, Emma
Martin, afterward known in literature
as Emma Marshall, visited her one day
and experienced rare pleasure She
says:
On a screen in her drawing room
were hung number of prisms, which
were suspended from chandeliers be-
fore the bell shaped globes came into
fashion. l sat on a stool at my moth
er's feet, wondering what those long
bits of glass could mean. Presently the
brilliant rays of the western sunshine
filed the room.
''Now," said NJ Opie, thou mayst
run over to thai zen and give it a
shake"
/ did as l was hidden. BE gentle,''
said my mother in a warning voice,
but gave the screen a vigorous shake.
Emerald, ruby and violet rays danced
on the walls and ceiling and delighted
me so intensely that I kept repeating
the process; then my mother, afraid of
mischief resulting, came and drew me
back to her side. Mrs. Opie looked at
me and said:
eff thou lowest bright colors, thee
will never see anything more beautiful
than the rainbow God sets in the sky

Could Not Report Golf.

When the amateur golf championship
was played at Wheaton in 1897 there
was but one Chicago newspaper man
who had the remotest conception of
what the game was. Accordingly, the
newspapers, with the exception of the
Chicago Tribune, agreed to syndicate
the work and put it all in this one
mans hands. The Tribune refused to
enter the combination and depended
upon the eXertions of a member of it's
own staff. But the Tribune reporter
speedily realized his helplessness and
appealed to his brother of the syndicate
for aid. The latter obligingly handed
over his copy, and the Tribune man set
to work to make a few minor changes
SO that it's kinship to the original should
not be too apparent. Later in the
evening he met his generous bene-
factor and told him of the changes he
had made.
'In particular, the account of the
play at the sixth hole between Forgan
and Douglas. You said that 'Forgan
trimmed the cup for half Well, you
know old chap, that Forgan is a bank
er down town and big man, while
Douglas is just one Of those Scotch
men. 1t seemed to me rather cheap to
have Forgan doing that sort Of thing
for half, so just made it read that

Poison Proof People

There are entire communities of Dci-
son proof people who partake of doses
of white arsenic with as much zest as
the average person partakes of meal.
Chief among these singularly gifted
people are the Syrian and Corinthian
shepherds who inhabit the districts of
Lamprecht, Salzburg, Hartberg, Leo
ben, Oberzeirung and the Erzgebirge
mountains The sturdy mountaineers
consider that arsenic improves their
wind for chamois climbing.
Some years ago DR.. Knapp put two
of these men through their PAGES be-
| fore the German Society of Physicians
assembled at Gratz. The one ate six
| grains of white arsenic, or enough to
kill three men, without experiencing
| the slightest inconvenience. The other
partook of four grains Of yellow arse
mic, Or orpiment, with equal impunity.
It was explained that, seeing the good
| effect of the drug upon the coats and
condition of their fiOcks, many of these
shepherds start the practice under the
| impression that taken in moderation it
| is good for human beings also.
Usually started with a small weekly
dose spread upon bread and butter, the
embryo arsenic eater has to undergo a
very severe test of his devotion to the
drug. Violent sickness and burning
pains accompany it's first use, and the
drug speedily asserts it's fatal power
over it's devotee.
Any attempt to leave off the drug is
generally fatal. The women of these
arsenic eating districts are famous for
| their beautiful compilations and luxuri-
ant treSSes.

Missed His Chance.

During his lecture to children at the
Society of Arts Mr.. e. Walter Maunder
told his audience an instructive story.
A certain lecturer on astronomy OBJ
served that some of the students were
not paying due attention. "Mr. So-and-
So" he called out to one Of them, Twill
you be good enough to tell us of what
the corona is composedY The student
addressed hesitated for a moment and
then blurted out, 'T did know, sir, but
I've forgotten" The professor looked
at him and then exclaimed: "What a
calamity! Here we have the only man
who ever knew the composition Of the
corona, and he has forgotten"-London

Hon 0 K Roe has sold his 160-acre
farm in Pleasant Springs to his brother
Hellick, for the sum of 1900. The
farm is one Of the finest in the locality
and as Hellick already owned 16O acres
he now has what is perhaps the best
half section in Dane county.
Mrs G J Melass and Miss Maya re-
turned Tuesday evening from Deming

the past six months. Mrs Melaas found
her health greatly benefited during the
early part of her stay there but suffered

of which she has not yet recovered.
Mr. and Mrs Hans Peterson and three
young children had a narrow escape

Lewis Ottesen who for a number OF
years mas made the town of Rutland his

ago to engage in farming in Vernon
county, has been lost track of and con-
siderable anxiety is felt concerning him
by his friends in this section. Ottesen
who is young man of perhaps 35 or Sc
years of age, had by strict industry and
economic habits saved about $4,000
which he decided to invest in farm land
and about year ago negotiated for the
purchase of 100 acres near Coon Valley
in Vernon county, paying $500 down on
the purchase price.

How Blaine Remembered Henderson.


1t was before General Henderson had
been elected to congress, and Blaine
was speaker of the house. Henderson
was in Washington, and naturally
Blaine was one of the statesmen that
he much desired to meet, and the op-
portunity came of a morning just as
the speaker was passing through the
lobby on his way to the marble ros-
trum. The formal greetings were ex-
changed in a brief moment, and Gener-
al Henderson was left to see the swing
ing doors close on the form of the Re-
publican leader.
Six years later General Henderson
again came to Washington, this time to
get Iowa divided into two judicial dis
tricts. He put up at Wormley's, where
Blaine also lived, 1t being in those days
fashionable and fiourishing hostelry.
A week or so after his arrival from
Iowa, as General Henderson was en-
tering the dining room, he met Blaine
after having passed and repassed him
many times. The Maine man grasped
him cordially by the hand, called him
by name and inquired about Iowa.

The Missing Turk,

Sarah Bernhardt was once playing at
Marseilles in a spectacular play in
which she made her entree accompa-
MED by six Turkish slaves. A line on
the programme announced that these
six Turks would accompany Nine.
Bernhardt, but when the time came for
them to go on one of the youngsters
had disappeared. Sarah mustered the
five in order and made her entrance
with a grand flourish. The house was
crowded, but not hand clap greeted
her as she appeared. Then a STILL small
voice in the gallery murmured some
thing in an indignant tone. Fifty
voices Immediately took up the strain,
and in ten seconds more the whole
house was shouting the same phrase
Bernhardt strained every nerve to
catch what they were complaining
about. She knew the phrase began
with "Manque," but the rest of it was
lost in the general hubbub. For full
minute the tumult continued Then
Sarah, muttering things below her
breath, rushed like a fury down to the
foOtlights. In the front row the ac-
tress had spotted one man who was not
taking part in the hullabaloo. Pointing
at him, the actress exclaimed sternly:
f'You seem to be the only sensible per-
son in the house. Tell me what on
earth they are kicking up this row
for?"
The man rose, bowed to the actress
and remarked in very bad American
French, Madame, you are shy one
