Besides the radicals. who look upon

who have emigrated there forming
one powerful tie. The former Presi-
dent of that land, therefore, is little
short of an idol in Hungary.
The enthusiasm with which he has
been received is one of the most re-
markable demonstrations Europe has
seen IN years. And the radicals, even

RAT DIES WAITING FOR

notified the authorizes that there was
a rat on the premises and asked thai
a man might be sent to kill it.
The request was duly noted, but II:
the official rat catcher was not immcd
ately available the head mistress was
advised to feed the beast in the mean
time SO that the rat catcher should no;
make fru(less journey.
This she did for some weeks, and as
the rat killer did not put in an appear
ance she made IL second application
The original request, she was inform
ed, had been mislaid, but help wu,llL
be sent in few days. Weeks passed
and one day the rat was found draU
and was buried in the garden In tn,
presence Of the head mistress.
A day or so later an official carrying
a bundle Of documents ''in the matter
of the rat" brought Il message to tho
effect that the head mistress Sh"uh
take steps to destroy the rat at he:
own expense, rs the official rat catch"i
could not come before the end Of y"

MILITARY ACCURACY.
Exactness In Keeping Tab on tho

than that displayed by our own war
department the movements or Its Of
ticers. Tie following is an interesting
ease In point:
\ young army officer who has seen
service in this country and In the east
was once with Il scouting party In Ari-
IONA. After two weeks in the desert
his squad came to the railway near a
small stat ion. Within ten minutes Il
telegram from Washington was
brought to him by the station agent
1t asked If the officer wished to be
trans ferrcd to one of the new artillery
regiments then forming.
He answered by telegraph that he
would be glad to enter either Of them
Then with his squad he set off again
across the desert.
1t was six days later when they
again struck the railway. this time
eighty miles from the point at which
they had previously crossed it. but the
officers reply from the war depart
mcnt was awaiting him. 1t had been
telegraphed to every station within
200 miles.
A more striking instance Of accuracy
occurred after the same officers trans
fer to the east. He was travelling
home on leave. and, as the regulations
require. he had notified the department
Of the day. hour and probable route
Of his journey. After he had been on
the train for eight hours ut q small
station the porter entered with q tcle
gram, asking if any one Of his nam"
was present. On opening the tclc-
gram the officer found that it ordered
him to detached duty.
