With mingled astonishment and IN
dgnation the findings OF the recent
court marital which tried Col Daniel

OF the Seventh Infantry. were received
nj Fort Wayne. Col. Cornman Is sen

fenced to dismissal from the army
which sentence was commuted Ia the
loss Of so numbers In his standing In
the list of captains. Verdicts OF ac-
quittal had been confidently expected
by these officers and their brother Oh
ficers at the fort
The charges against them were
based on the action OF Contract Sur
geon J. l.. Burkart in lending horses
TO army officers which were stabbed
and fed at government expense. Jeal-
ousy existing between DR.. Burkart
and DR.. Peter c. Fields, the post srr-
geon, resulted In the investigation anu
court martials. The evidence showed
that Col. Cornman had no official
knowledge OF these horse deals, while
Capt. French had taken the word of
other officers for the forage bills.
Col. Cornman stated. when he heard
OF the verdict, that he deemed it quite
severe since he had been convicted
on a technicality. He is satisfied that
he cid right in not keeping spy sys-
tenn upon his officers and will accept
his punishment without protest.
Capt. French will be greatly delay
ed in his profession as result OF the
verdict He is now No. 80 in the list
of 493 captains in the army and will

his progress toward the grade OF major
by several years.
There is an impression current that
the punishment OF the two officers Is
due somewhat TO their part in the
court martial of Lieut.. Russell r. Haz.
gard, a Cuban war hero. who became
very unpopular at Fort Wayne. and
against whom charges of forgery.
drunkenness and other misdoings were
finally made. His illegal marriage TO

Sharks Fear Noise.

The cowardiness of sharks is
well known among men who have
been much to sea in southern wa
ters infested by man eaters. The
fiercest shark will get out Of the sea
way in a very great hurry if the
swimmer, noticing its approach,
sets up noisy splashing. A shark
is in deadly fear of any sort of iv-
ing thing that splashes in the water.
Among the south sea islands the
natives never 60 sea bathing alone,
but always in parties of half doz-
en- or so in order that they may
make the greatest hubbub in the
water and thus scare the sharks
away. Once in awhile too ven
turesome swimmer among these ma
tives foolishly detaches himself
from his swimming party and mo-
mentarily forgets to keep up his
gplashing. Then there is a swish,
and the man eater comes up be-
meath him like a flash and gobbles
him.
