INSPECTOR General Michael J. Hackett today.
"Our membership is mostly composed Of
regular soldiers, sailors and marine who
have rendered faithful service to our coun-
try and have been honorably discharged
from the service Of the United States.
''In reality the Army and Navy Union is
the only veteran military organization In
America, as the definition OF the word vet
eran means a man with long service. In
the Army and Navy Union the majority OF
its members have served from five to thir-
ty-flve years in the regular army, navy and

ROMANCE OF WAR TIMES.
Happy Sequel to Stampede Of Cattle
in Monument Grounds.

The Monument grounds where one OF the
government cattle pens at times contained
many thousands Of beef cattle. with the
slaughter houses near the river, was a very
different place In war times from what 1t
Is at present. One Sunday night there was
such stampede among the cattle herded
there as to be easily mistaken for a scene
in the wild and woolly west" The fenc-
ing had been broken and the cattle in
droves sped over the adjacent street. run
ming at 80 wild a gait that numbers of peo-
pie who were out late had narrow escapes
from being run over.
1t so happened that young man who
had been visiting his sweetheart In South
washington was on his way to his home
when he heard the noise made by the mad
rush Of Uncle Sans beef cattle, and be-
Ing good sprinter he ran to the govern
msnt Offices and gave the alarm. Several
hundreds Of government employees, inciud-
Ing cavalrymen. at once started to carroll
them, and, mount being furnished him,
the young man accompanied them. After
several hours Of hard riding the animals
were safely herded
Now the only thing which had prevented
the contamination Of the wishes Of the
young man and his girl was that, indus
trfous as he was he had no permanent en-
ployment. His services as cowboy were
recognized, however, by the authorities,

PITlFuL CONDITION OF EsKIM0s.
Government Reports Show Their Situa-
ton to Be Serious.

The position in which the native
Eskimos of western Alaska find them
selves today is indeed a pitiful one.
Their condition may be said TO be part
ly due to the advance Of civilization,
and unless something is done for them
by the government it will be but a
short time before this race of people
will be mum bered with the past. The
census superintendent at Cape Nome
reports that in some of the districts
sixty per cent of the people have died
from disease privation since he began
making his reports. Not only do these
people live through the long winter
day and night in squalid poverty in
their little huts, with often no fire to
keep them warm, for wood IS very
scarce, but their food is also giving out.
Since the advent of the white man into
the district in great mum bers, and the
consequent of firearms in abundance,
the Eskimo has found it an easy mat
ter to get all the guns he wanted. 1t
was no. long before he understood that
powder and ball was quicker method
for gathering skins to sell to his white
brother than the bow and arrow TO
which he had been accustomed. The
result is that, where in former times
he killed as rule a sufficient Num-
Der of fur animals to keep him in meat,
with arms in his possession he began
ruthlessly to slaughter large Quantt-
ties of fur bearing animals, the meat
of which he could not use, and which
he allowed to lie on the ground and de-
cay. Today there is a scarcity of fur
bearing animals in western Alaska,
aud the Eskimo, befoi e he realized it,
has robbed himself of his meat sub
sistence: and worse than all his wonton
destruction has probably deprived him
of his animals from the fur of whic h
he made his clothing. His situation
is certainly serious one, as the re
ports of our government officials IN
Alaska show.
