Is or 20 such young men annually
could be placed in the consta bulary as
officers to advantage of the service and
those selected While at first the men
appointed would not be as valuable as
the highest grade of nOn-cOmmis-
stoned officers who already have had
service in the Philippines, General
Allen feels that in the long run they
would be superior to the class of men
who are now entering the service. The
pay and emoluments are to be in
creased At present the pay runs from
$500 to $500 for third lieutenant 20
81. 200 to 81. 500 for a captain, besides the
allowances are ample for house rent
and there are no hospital expenses.
Owing to the number Of stations the

brought back to my mind many MEM
ories OF ideal June days, spent in the
years so long gone by that it seems
hard to realize that they actually were

love to be in Kansas in the fairese
month OF all the year, but it is some-
what doubtful If I can. I had an at
tack OF the grippe in December. which
left me in March in pretty bad SHAPE.
and since early in March I have been
struggling with bad digestion and =
bad heart I have had two severe set
backs. but am now, l think doing
finely. and hope, by my experience in
the past, to be able to prevent any
further setbacks and to recover per-
manently from my troubles. 1 am about

seqLently it is possible that the casual
tles incident TO racing will soon dacimatc
the young and old millonaires who have
the racing fever in their blood. The cas-
ualtes during the first stage of the Paris
Madrid automobile race seem to indicate
that the chauffeurs were determined to
win or die. as some Of them are already
dead and their employees scattered along
the roads The scene must have been ter
rifying to the natives, who were denied
the traditional privilege of shining up
trees to escape danger, for some of the
boiling vehicles dashed into trees and
knocked them into pipe stems while their
