10 the substitutes than being reported for Is
minutes absence, which meant nothing more
than a few demerit marks
Silence and sleep reigned through the old
stone quarters. Far away up the Hudson
speeded the steam launch bearing the pleas
ure-seeking cadets, in whose hunks with their
heads well covered with blankets, lay their
self-sacrifcing comrades. There was an in
spection that night. 1t was made by three
officers-Leverett M. Walker, Benjamin Ran
dolph and E. ]. McClernand. Randolph and
Walker found two empty hunks and ordered
the officer of the day to inspect for the abb
sentees every 10 minutes. He did this duty
and found the empty hunks filled. Two of the
cadets dancing way up where the Newburgh
lights twinkled were SAFE
McClernand found in his division of bar
racks empty bunk. 1t was that of Fair
fax Montague. McClernand knew thing or
two and was a disciplinarian. After finding
Montague absent he turned every cadet over
in his bunk, threw the light of the lantern full
in his face and then looked at the name over
the alcove to if face and name conceded.
Mcdonald and Montague-McDonald on the
printed alcove slip and Montague in the bunk
did not agree.
The Virginian was ordered back to his
quarters in arrest, and Mcdonald, Waiting

was inspected for every Is minutes until he
reached his quarters six hours later. He was
saved from the extreme penalty for his Of
tense, but he had six months confinement In
barracks in which to think over his part in
an escapade that brought about nightly in
spection of barracks for years thereafter. Pos

and entered by the one door which had been
left unbarred. The cadets in barracks had
fastened every other door and every window
on the ground floor, effectually barring the
officers from entering. Within three minutes
of the first crash from Battery Knox officers
began to swarm out of their quarters to head
for the area of barracks, where they found the
officer of the day lodging the fiery balls of a
score of Roman candles
Gen. Schofield reused from his slumbers
hastily dressed and trotted across the parade
ground in the wake of his juniors The gen.
eral howled an order at the officer in charge:
Sound the long roll"
The officer in charge replied Cant do it;
they've stolen the drums"
All this while the night was full of noise
and the air was full of fire. Finally every
thing burnable was burned up and the cadets
had tired of the task of carrying round shot
up the stairs only to roll them down again
The enlisted drummer boys found their in
struments and it may do no harm at this late
day to say that they had known where they
were all the time Long roll was sounded the
barracks doors were thrown open and the
cadets fell into line and answered to their
names
Every privilege was taken away from the
cadets for three months, but not one was dis
missed. for if the guilty had been punished
not boy would have been left to the service
of the corps of cadets.

Old-Time Butterscotch.-Put three

ameled kettle with three-fourths OF
pound of butter. Place over a mod

vent scorching. Take the kettle from

called ground-nut cake in Charleston
and a fine molasses is used for it in
stead of sugar. Remove the shells

in the nuts, mixing them well with
the molasses. When the mixture is
chilled enough to permit it's lying fair

John Breckenridge, junior MEMBER OIL that
famous family, one Fairfax Montague whose
name savors of Virginia, and one other cadet
whom modesty requires shall be nameless
The penaltv at West Point for going "off
limits" is dismissal, and the same dose is CIV
en- to the unlucky cadet who is found to be
absent from his quarters for more than 80
minutes between taps and reveille. A young
woman living in Newburgh, one Of West Points
summer girls" knowing these rules and pen
alties, loosely asked several hrst classmen
to be present at a party to be given at her
home, IL miles up the river. on Thanksgiving
evening They resolved to accept. They sue
ceeded in getting hold of some money and in
bribing steam launch captain to agree to
take them to Newburgh after taps. when there
was an inspection, and to get them back in
time for reveille roll call.
Many cadet from the period Of Lee had
been to Benny Ravens, a mile away from the
post, time after time, but such trip as the
one proposed daring beyond all prece-
dent. The chief danger lay in the POSSIBLE
ity of a darklantern inspection Of quarters
while the runaways were absent. There had
not been such an inspection for some little
time, and this fact made the plotters bold.
Mcdonald finally evolved brilliant
scheme. 1t was to get certain other cadets to
sleep in the absentees' hunks and to pass for
them in the necessarily hurried lantern in
spection. This plan would. of course. involve
the substitutes being found absent from their
own quarters, but it was arranged, through
means unnecessary to state. to have them
awakened at once in case an inspection took
place, and hurried back to their hunks. When
a cadet is found absent he is inspected for
every Is minutes until he returns.
Under the arrangement made. of course.
the runaways would be supposed to be sound
asleep and their substitutes absent and it
was for the latter that the later inspection
would be made. 1t was figured out by the

One of the most delicious ways to
use apples, in cookery, is in a Ba-

To Clean Cut Glass.

Experts in cut glass recommend the
following as the best method of clean
ing cut glass articles: Wash the glasf
thoroughly with warm soapsuds and
cover with sawdust. AS soon as the
sawdust is dry, brush the article very
carefully with soft brush, reaching
all the crevices. 1t will come out as
clear and sparkling as a bubble fresh
