LODGE TAKES up MILES
CASE In THE SENATE
QUESTION OF EXTRA PAP ron
ACTIVE RETIRED OFFICERS,

Retired Officers Assigned to Active
List Claimed to be Directed at Miles
MIR. Scott Denies That it Is Direct
ed at Any Individual oncer.
Washington. Jan. 25.-In connection
with the consideration Of the army ap
preparation bill there was an animated
discussion in the senate to-day Of the
assignment of General Miles to service
III charge of the Massachusetts state
militia. The controversy was begun byl
Mr.. Lodge. who criticised in sharp Ian
guage the provision of the army bill pro-
hibiting the awarding Of extra pay or
allowance to retired officers assigned to
active service when they exceed those
| OF major on the active list. Mr.. Lodge
declared the provision was directed at
General Miles and was most unfair.
Messrs. Lodge, Proctor, Platt tConn.)
spooner, Bailey, Patterson, carmack
and Money took part in the debate
which followed.
Mr.. Scott said he did not believe Mr.
Lodges assumption that the provis.sn
IS aimed at an individual officer AR
Lodge replied that the debate III the
mouse had developed such to BIZ the
case. Mr.. Platt Of Connecticut crti-
cized the provision as obscure and said
That as he construed the provision ii
prohibits higher pay than a major then
TO any retired officer no matter what
his pay, if he accepts service ON active
| duty.
MT Patterson announced his en-
dorsement of the provision except in sd
FAR as it was retroactive. He suggested
amendments making it applicable only
TO the future. He said he had been Inv
formed that in rendering the position
as the head of the Massachusetts, mill
ton to General Miles, Governor Doug
lass had volunteered Compensation
from the state. which was declined by
the general.
MI Scott gave assurance that the
senate committee on military affairs
had had no one person in mind when
the paragraph was adopted. He said
there We're hundreds of applications for
such assignments.
Mr.. Proctor suggested the following
substitute for the house provision. !.
That hereafter retired officers of the
army above the grade of major shall,
when assigned to active duty In con-
nection with the organized militia in
the several states and territories upon
the request Of the governor Thereof, re-
Iceive their full retired pay and also
Communication Of quarters, unless gov
ernment quarters are available, and
shall receive no further pay or allow
lance, provided that a lieutenant

OF Wide Interest.

Breed, Wis, June 26.-Special-
Chas. Y. Peterson, Justice of the Peace
for Oconto Co., has delivered a judg-
ment that is Of interest to the whole
United States. Put briefly, that judg-
ment is, "Dodd's Kidney Pills are the
best Kidney medicine on the market
to-day"
And Mr.. Peterson gives his reason
for this judgment. He says: Last
winter l had an aching pain in my
back which troubled me very much.
In the morning I could hardly straight
en- my back. l did not know what it
was but an advertisement led me to
try Dodd's Kidney Pills. After taking
one box l can only say they have done
more for me them expected as l feel as
well now as ever l did before"
Pain in the back is one of the first
symptoms Of Kidney disease. If not
cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills it may
develop into Brights Disease, Dia-
betes, Rheumatism or some of the
other deadly forms of Kidney Disease.

orIalnal Of nslndbad.n

That oriental tale of sindbad the
sailor, is believed to owe a good deal
to the legend Of st. Brendan, the
Irish saint. According to the legend,
st. Brendan sailed the ocean for sew
en- years in search of the island that
had once been Adams Eden. During
that time he regularly visited the
island Of Sheep. where the sheep are
as large as oxen; the island OF Birds,
that are really fallen angels, and an
other island, which is really a big
fish named J%ascon, trying to get his
tail into his mouth. st. Brendan used
to encamp on the fish on Easter day
and go on to the birds on Easter Mon
day. He found the Eden island at
last, but no one has seen it since,
though it appeared on seventeenth
century maps and in an eighteenth
century treaty between Spain and
Portugal. Probably Irish monks took
this legends with them to the east in
the ninth century.

"Hlnt" Was Effective,

An Australian customs officer tells
this story: For some time we had in
the customs gig a great stalwart Java
nese named Mingo, who also acted as
office boy. He had at n time been
a soldier, and fought in Acheen. Min
go lived at my quarters. One evening
we had a dance, which I suppose dis.
turbed Master Mingo, for getting tired
of the frivolity he suddenly appeared
on the veranda with a lighted lantern
and a clock. He coolly walked round
and deliberately held the lantern and
clock in the face of each guest in
turn. The timepiece indicated 2:S9.
Our friends. who fully appreciated
Mingo's gentle hint, Immediately de-
parted"

from Trinidad says: The Twenty
third infantry, u. S. A., numbering
about $50 men and thirty-nine officers,
passed through Trinidad going east

from the Philippines. The regiment
was stationed on the island of Min
danao, and is bound for Fort Madison,

Read.
Colonel Read entertained several
friends with a story of his early travels
through this section. He stated that
he marched over this entire western
country forty years ago, that he built
the first telegraph line which had its
beginning at Santa Fe and ended at
Los Angeles, and had marched from
Trinidad to the Pacific coast. He also
told q story of General Frank d. Bald

the commander of the Department of

But the lit Of a laugh rings far.

Oh, they heard not a word he said;
The sound Of a son rang far and wide,
And they hearkened to that instead.

Louis A. Julien was the first con.

performance of which an alarm Of
fire was regularly sounded and a bri.

The Hawaiian language is composed
mainly of vOwels, with a few consO-
nants put in to vary the monotony.
And the beauty Of the system is that
there is no waste. Every vowel is pro-
nOunced. For instance, when the
American eye winks at the appearance
Of the simple word "naauao," the glib
native rolls out the five syllables with
neatness and dispatch This means
"enlighten.' Double vowels are very
frequent, but never "a diphthong. Three
vowels are not uncommon, and, as
above, four and sometimes more are
found unseparated by consonants. In
the mouth Of the uneducated native
the language is apt to be explosive,
but the higher classes speak it with
fluent grace that surpasses the French
or the Italian. In sound it somewhat
resembles the general flow Of the CONT
mental European language, for the
vOwels all have the French quality,
and the accents are not dissimilar
