MONKEY MASCOT IN WAR.
A simian Veteran of Philippine STRIFE
who Was In Many En-
gagements.

Fritz. the mascot of company H.,
Twenty-third regulars, and veteran of
the Philippine war, is known to the
boys of the company as "comrade,'
and to them he is away above the av-
erage of his kind.
Fritz enjoys the rare distinction or
being the only one of IL monkeys able
to stand the long ocean voyage from
Manila. Frank j. Knotfkey is his
owner, and the soldier has never gone
into an engagement since April IA, 1900,
when Fritz was brought into camp,
without the faithful monkey either on
his shoulders or trudging along close
bv his side. Fritz has been one every
island in the Sulu archipelago and suf-
fered without murmur the long and
trying campaigns.
When Knoffkey lay wounded on the
field in Cebu island his comrades in
uniform pressed on, but his comrade
Fritz nestled close to his side and
guarded him through the watches OF
the night.
On the regiments forced march
across Latey island, Fritz divided his
time between walking and riding on
the shoulders of the men along the
line. 1t was on this occasion, says
the New York Mail and Express, that
he came near losing his life at the
hands of several wild monkeys be-
cause he had no tail. A monkey loses
his social standing in the Philippines
when he is minus tail. Fritz escaped
from his indignant relatives only by
leaping to the shoulders of his master.
