young recruit on outpost in a lonely
land, there were times when the temp
tation to hear the sound of their own
rifles was greater than they could
Withstand. Most of the stories of
wanto shooting on the part Of any of

run down, to have originated in the
s~uperheated Imagination of somebody
unused to the severity of military
regime. 1t Is a shock to a free, self
governing American city to suddenly
see all law, all government, concen-
trated in the person of a young man
with a magazine rifle, pacing across
the street, stopping vehicles, pedes-
trians, civil officials, and all, and d.
recting the coming and going Of all
classes with impartiality. 1t gives
the average citizen a peculiar and per-

%lOngings. Example is contagious, and
1t was necessary to keep fire-mad folk
out of the area of destruction. 1t was
not proper or possible to leave 1t
to their option whether or not to put
their lives in jeopardy. The cashier
OF a bank attempted to enter the tot
tering, smouldering ruins of his insti-
tuition to secure some papers. The
sentinel halted him and forbade him
to pass. He refused to obey, ran by
the sentry, and was shot. 1t seems
cruel, but such incidents restrained
others-perhaps maryland thereby
prevented loss of life. Hence 1t was
humanity. In a short time the panic
stricken learned that martial law was
~inflexible, but kind; that the hand of

Bow Tries to Wreck Flyer.

Cincinnati.--Samuel Sweeney, IA
years old, who lives near Junction
City, KY, is under arrest IN the
charge of attempting to wreck the
Queen 6 Crescent's Florida special,
which passes his home daily. A
knuckle from a patent freight car had
been saddled across the track by the
youngster and the heavy train was
saved by a track walker, who discov.
cred it just in time. Detectives lay in
wait at the spot, supposing that the
perpetrator would return, as he had
not been apprehended. The boy made
his appearance next day with another
of the knuckles and was arrested. He
was taken to Stanford, where his trial
was held recently. At the place where
the wreck was attempted is one of the
steepest embankments along the road.
