TRIED TO EXPLAIN.

soon 1LIer LllS LleutenantS smith
and White called upon Colonel Mark
ley and tried TO offer an explanation
for their extraordinary conduct. The
colonel refused 70 permit any discus
sion Of the matter, as their actions had
been too fagfant. This ended the af-
fair so far as Colonel Markley was con-
cerned.
Lieutenant Smith at once requested
that his father, Colonel Allen Smith,
Sixth Cavalry. be sent for. Colonel
Smith, who is stationed at Fort Meade,
Nebraska, Immediately responded TO
his sons request and arrived in town
yesterday. He at once called upon Gen.
ersl Macarthur.
Lieutenant Smith graduated from
West Point in 1909. He comes Of a
family Of army people. His father and
his grandfather are army men. and his
brother. Lieutenant Allen Smith Jr., IS
in the Third Infantry.
Lieutenant White is not a West Point
man, but received his commission
through the influence Of his father.
Colonel Marlzley is greatly upset over
the different incidents that have hap
pened during his command here Of the
Thirteenth Infantry. The scandal of
the Roblchon case was much deplored
by him. This was quickly followed by
the earlier escapades Of Lieutenants
White and Smith, and later by their
outbreak of indecency that VIII doubt
less terminate their careers as officers
Of Uncle Sans army. Close on the
heels Of this affair. which was kept
quiet for some days, came the shock
ing suicide Of one OF Colonel Mark
ley's most respected captains. Freder-
ick S. Wild. The colonel's bed is not
enc Of roses.

cracks and in spite of vigorous rub
bling and brushing refuses to resume
it's pristine smoothness of surface, try
the simple expedient of holding light

broken spot BY the time the match

will brush it vigorously with q stiff

Dry Cigars and Damn onea.

Some smokers prefer a cigar that is
damp to one that is dry" says cigar
manufacturer, land in showing this
preference 1 think they make a mis-
take. A cigar that is too dry will, of
course, cause a little annoyance from
dust, but a cigar that is as damp as
many smokers prefer it will not have
as good an aroma as the other and will
not burn so well. A medium cigar, in
respect to these conditions, is best, but
between a damp and a dry cigar I
would always take the dry one and
thus secure the better smoke. st.
