Rear Admiral Schlcy was telling
stories at the Richmond hotel few
days ago and, perhaps naturally, came
around to the subjects of courts of in-
qulry. He said that during the civil
war court was convened to try man
for desertion, Schley, then lieuten-
ant, was one OF the members of the
court. When every thing was ready
the Judge advocate asked the defcn-
dant: Have you any objection to
any member of this court?'
The accused man looked over the
court scrutinized each member closely
and then said: Yes, Sir, object to
The white-hairod man at the end of the
table,"
The officer objected to was the pre-.
sldent of the court. The Judge advo-
cate inquired "Upon what ground
do you object TO this member of the
court?"
Without a moments hesitation the
defendant replied: "I don't like the
honesty Of his countcnance."
The court retired for consultation
and upon returning to the room an
nounced that the objection was not
sustained. The judge advocate, turn.
ing to the accused, asked: "IIave you
any objection to make to any other
member of the court?"
He looked gsavely about him for q
fow minutes and then answered: eyes

MICROBES SWARM
IN NEW YORK

NEW YORK, Oct. alarming con-
improperly cleaned streets of New York
have been presented to the Board of
Estimate and Apportionment by Com
missioner Woodbury. in his plea for an
increase Of $445, 316 in the appropriation
of the Department for Street Cleaning.
He presented statistics and photographs
showing that an army of germs hovers
ever the city, and that in the copgest-
ed districts of the East Side bacteria
swarm above the streets. For months
q scientific investigation has been go
ing on to ascertain the danger in the
refuse of the streets, it's character and
the proper way to~fight it. This inves-
LEGATION is yet incomplete. Water is to
be the remedy suggested. Under the
direction of well-known scientists an
investigation has proceeded since July
18th and photographs of the atmosphere
were taken after many experiments be-
tween August 1st and August 10th to
prove the statistics gathered. These
photographs were taken at least twelve
hours after a heavy rain in order to
warrant normal conditions.
Commissioner Woodbury. presented
data showing the number of colonies of
bacteria caught by gelatine plates at
the curb and at an elevation of six feet
in various parts of the city. They vary
from ten or dozen colonies in the best
districts TO nearly hundred thousand
in the East Side. The plates were all
exposed half an hour, and after being
placed in an incubator were photo
graphed.

WITH GENERAL FUNSTON.
Anti-saiooa Leag ne Is Now waging
War With Words.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Oct. 9.-The Ohio
Anti Saloon League has made an at
tack on General Fred Funston. The
league officers issued this statement:
| s.And now General Funston is going
into the papers to the effect that some
good soldiers have been ruined because
beer was Put out of the army canteen.
It is naturally to be supposed, from the
craze of these alleged good soldiers aft
er drink, that they had been ruined be-
fore beer was expelled. It seems evil
dent that the canteen had got in its de-
moralizing work on them before it went,
and it is quite likely, as General Fun
ston says, that they will now go outside
and swilI themselves to death.
But it is not so much question with
the enemies of the beer canteen what
becomes Of the chronic drunkards who
are already enlisted in the army, as it
is a question of making new drunkards
by government authority. The point
with US is that there are hundreds of
new officers, clean blooded and moral,
now entering our army uncontaminatea
by the drinking tradition. We wou1a
like to break the power of the army So
cial custom.
General Funston talks about dives
and saloons squatting just outside of
the government reservations. The fact
is, they have not come as the result of
recent canteen legislation. but have
been there for years. There is no diff
Guilty in Congress passing a law forbid
cling their presence within mile or two
of such reservations. The friends of
the soldiers are already considering the
introduction of this measure in the next
Congress- /

Knock on Lumber Rates.

Washington, Feb. 10.-The senate
committee on interstate commerce
heard representatives of the Kansas,
Oklahoma and Missouri Lumber Deal
ers' association on the charges made by
that association that the railroads west
of the Mississippi river discriminate in
their charges and otherwise against
lumber. They complained that the re-
cent increase in the lumber rate is out of
proportion to the increase on freight
rates on other bulky commodities.
They also charged that there is, as a
rule, more delay in the shipment of
lumber than in the shipment of
other freights, due to the fact that lum-
Der cars are so frequently side-tracl1ed
They urged that an amendment to the
present law, having found that under
it the interstate commerce commission
is unable to afford relief.

They Say the Land There Is the Finest
on Earth.
A great number of delegates have
been influenced through the agency of
Mr.. ]. S. Crawford, the Canadian gov
eminent representative at Kansas
City, to visit western Canada, and
whether from Missouri or Kansas the
story is always the same-they are
pleased with the new country being
opened up. Isaac H. Levagood writes
from Didsbury, Alberta, as follows:
81 met three delegates from Kansas
yesterday at Didsbury, and took them
home with me and took them out In
the afternoon and showed them some
of the finest land that lays on top Of
Gods green earth. They are more
than pleased with this country. They
stayed with me last night this morn
ing l took them to Didsbury, and
they went on north. When they come
back they are coming to my place and
| am going to help them to run some
lines and they are going to locate in
over 1900 acres of land changed hands
here in our neighborhood this spring.
When located here last fall ] was
the furthest back of any of the set
tiers; to-day am in the center OF the
settlement. We have thirty-six chill
dren that are of school age In our dis
trict and we will have our school dis
trict organized next month, when we
will proceed to build our schoolhouse.
The longer we stay here the better we
like the country; that is the way with
everybody here, they all seem to be
satisfied and doing well. l have
talked with a great many men here
and they told me that they had less
than $50 when they got here, and to-
day they have got 100 acres OK good
land and five or six hundred dollars
worth of stock. Crops are looking
fine here. l think this will be a good
winter wheat country. One of my
neighbors has a small piece and 1t
looks fine"
