ANECDOTES OF THE ARMY.
Capt. w. =. scott g. Friend and Adj
mirer of Lucien Young.


Capt. w. s. Scott, the junior member of
the board that is here to determine what
can be done with the arsenal grounds, is
a friend of Capt. Lucien Young, who was
formerly in charge of the port of Havana,
and is now stationed at Detroit. Captain
Young visited Indianapolis several months
ago and made an address at the Columbia
Club. He has a number of warm admirers
in this city. "Lucien Young is a mighty
good fellow said Captain Scott yesterday,
land was very popular with army officers
while in Cuba. During the war the cap
tain was in command of a converted yacht
called the Hist 1t took part in a right
brisk fight off the south coast of Cubc,
near the town of Manzanillo, and after this
fight the boat was known as the 'Pajama
packet This was because of the fact that
while the fight was going on Captain
Young was on the bridge in his pajamas.
In fact. his outfit consisted only of pajamas
and his sword. AS "A result of the fight
Young was promoted.
''They tell a good story on Captain
Young in connection with a poker game
Scott. "You know that poker playing is
not alloewd in the wardroom of a ship.
The wardroom is where the junior officers
live. However, the rule was broker once
on the Hist. and it is told that a number
of officers got into a poker game. To do
them justice ii can be said they were too
conscientious TO do any real gambling. so
it was decided they would play for each
others clothes. The game proceeded, and
the odds seemed to be against one partic-
ular young officer. He first lost his coat,
then his vest and finally his trousers. His
other garments were staked and lost and
finally the young man had not a stitch left.
When the game broke up he was unable
to borrow any clothes. but the others con-
scented to help him get home. They got
hold of a lot of newspapers, and by cut
ting them and pinning them together the
young man was made presentabIe enough
to so home. This little affair took place
while the Hist was lying in port at San
tiago."

against the Indianapolis Light and Power
Company. the Consumers Gas Trust Com
pany and the Indianapolis Gas Company
for $500. He kept a stock OF paints and oils

IN their pipes The gas could not find an
outlet through the solid asphalt pavements

me resultant sparks ignited the escaped
gas and the explosion that followed blew
out the windows OF the building and caused
havoc among Dailey's cans of paint.
