NEW ORDER OF SOLDIERS.
Aims OF the Organization Explained
by sPrivate" Dalze1l.

by 6Private" Dalxell.
An old soldiers organization has
been started at Washington, and it is
planned to extend it all over the coun-
try and to take into it all citizens who
ever have fought for the United States,
says the New York Times. Speaking
for the new organization, Private
Dalzell said:
'"This organization is intended to en-
brace soldiers of all wars and their
sons in a national political organiza-
ton. 1t will not interfere with party
politics, religion or any other obliga-
tons Of it's members. 1t will not an
tagoniZe the Grand Army of the Re-
public or the Union Veterans union or
any other patriotic organization now in
existence, because the members of this
new organization belong to the others.
'"The intention of the promoters of
the new combination, If it may be so
called, is to have organizations by
states, congressional districts, counties
and precincts, the same as the political
the purpose of the organization to con-
troll nominations and elections Of men
who are favorable to the soldier and If
need be to defeat, without regard to
party, any man in the country for office
who has demonstrated hostility or in
difference to the interests Of the old
soldier of any and every war.
$50 broad is this new order that
President Roosevelt, himself an hon.
orably discharged soldier of the United
States army, may and likely will be-
come a member, as will also, II they
desire, General Breckenridge and
Fighting joe Wheeler, although they
were fighters against the Union in the
civil war; The single requirement for
eligibility is an honorable discharge
from the military or naval service of
the government. Sons of eligible men,
bers will also be admitted to the or
der. The Grand Army Of the Republic
is prohibited by its constitution and
bylaws from interfering in any way
in the nomination or appointment or
election of any person to civil office"

What Has Happened to Old Sentt-
mental Inscriptions.
'It takes a vigilant and determined
person to steer clear of slang these
days." remarked man who likes to
study the signs of the time. 1--WE have
slang novels, slang plays and slang art
of various kinds.
"The latest slang manifestation, how
ever, is slang candy. Haven't you
seen it? 1t is on sale at many candy
stands. Do you remember the old
fashioned, fat, sca1loped, diamond or
heart shaped candy lozenge, orna-
mented with sentimental words, such
as Sweetheart My Own True Love-
Faithful to Thee Ever Thine and
so on? We used to pass these compli-
mentary lozengGs around at little gath
erings when l was young, and much
harmless but deeply fervent lovemak-
ing was carried on by means of such
simple tokens.
"The pink and white candy lozenge
Of the present day, however, is a de-
generate. 1t is much smaller in size,
although still scalloped, and the
phrases stamped on it's surface are be-
low the dignity of genteel members Of
the lozenge family. The words you
read now on the candy loZenge are as
follows: That's What My Best Girl,
'Rubberneck,' Move On Sure Bat
Them Out My Size DO You BikeY
Gee Whizv My Baby Lou Guess
Not Just So Come Again. That
Facev and so on"
"How curiousw commented the man
who was listening. 1--WE live in slang
age, don't WEI"
"Surew answered the man who was
down on slang, and then with sud
denly redeemed face he began to talk
about seventeen year locusts.-Detroit
