~MALlNGER!NG" THE NAVY.
Shsmmins illness Not Common NOW
Man Who Feiqned Insanity.


"Malingering," remarked a naval
officer the other day, according TO the
Washington Star, lis not nearly SO
common in the navy as it used to be.
but every once in while we nave
men feign illness for the purpose or
eyading duty or securing change OF
station. One of the worst cases
ever heard of was that OF an cleo
trician stationed at the Mare island
navy yard. He had been courtmar-
tailed for various offenses and SEN
fenced to be dishonorably discharged.
In order. however, to leave the serv-
ice under more favorable auspices and
so obtain a pension he simulated in
sanity and acted the part to the
queens taste. He said that the peo-
pie were trying to poison him and
went into violent contortions when
approached. AS he could not be held
by ropes it was necessary to put him
in irons. In one of his paroxysms he
clamored for a live snake to eat and
would be satisfied with nothing else.
Suspecting that he was shamming,
tame snake was borrowed and offered
to him, but as he gave every evidence
of eating it the owner of the snake
refused to allow the test to go any
further and the reptile was carried
away. For the next ten days medical
dietary treatment was administered
with the result that the patient final
ly owned up that he had been sham
ing, with the remark that he couldn't
stand the bread and water and salts
given him by the doctor any longer"

Oysters With, or Without?

Sitting opposite me in a down.
town oyster house the other day"
said Col Abe Gruber, was one of
those fastidious men who undertake
to transmit instructions to the cook
through the waiter. He wanted a
twenty five-cent milk stew AS nearly
as | can remember these were his
instructions:
Now, waiter. kindly tell the cook
| don't want the oysters and milk
merely mixed and heated. | want the
milk carefully boiled first. The oys-
ters should then be added without the
liquor. The liquor should not be put
in until the seasoning is added. Be
very particular to get good, rich milk,
and nothing but the best gilt-edged
butter. AS for the oysters, | want
Cape Cod salts. No ordinary stock
oysters for me. Do you understand?
"'I think SO, sir replied the waiter;
but do you wish the oysters with or
without?
With or without what?' asked the
customer
Pearls, sir New York Press.

Longest Strike on Record.

What is the strongest strike on rec
ord? There is one, still running in
Germany, which has endured for thir
ty-fve years. 1t has other remarkable
features as we'll, as the strikers are
members of parliament, though, it
must be admitted, of a small one.
They are the deputies to the diet of
the principality of Ratzeburg, and
they are striking against the reaction
airy constitution imposed by the grand
duke of Mecklenburg Strelitz in 1869.
Since that year the members of the
diet have steadfastly refused to meet,
although frequently called upon to do
so. Now, however, the new duke has
held out the hand of reconciliation and
promised to consider their demands
for revision of the constitution, so
that the strike will probably soon
come to an end

Into Lies cleaning he has passed to-
night.
The vividness of day for him is Ger
Its gladdening luster will be his no
more,
Only the solemn vespertinal light.
She was his all, as he was all to her
o. happy smile that hoverest like a
wrath
Ger the wan lips, dost thou proclaim
faith
In Love no mist of years can ever blur?
Dreaming he gaZes, waited to a cline
OF hyacnth glades and meadows cow
slip crown'd
Where boy and maiden brave in Love
new found,
Laughing defiance fling to Death and
Time!
Into the cleaning he has passed but
soon
Shall glisten through its grayness
Memory's star.
And with white radiance naught of
Earth evan mar
Console for crimson dawn and golden
noon
