Colonel Taylor's case is not a unique
one, but 1t demonstrates very clearly how
difficult 1t is for an army officer with
family to make his salary satisfy all his
needs. Army officers are subject to the
orders of the president as commander-in-
chief, who by the way seldom knows them
individually, which are transmitted through
the adjutant general of the army and
just when one has become comfortably set
tied in desirable post where he may have
the advantage of education for his chill
dren, he is liable to be ordered to a new
post a thousand miles away. Some years
ago an officer in the army with nine chill
dren in ten year was ordered to no
less than seven different posts, every move
involving an expenditure of practically a
thousand dollars in railroad fare and in
transportation of his household goods. The
case OF Colonel Taylor is almost analogous
AT the outbreak OF the Spanish war he was
a captain in the Ninth cavalry, stationed
in Fort Robinson, Neb. The Ninth is a
negro regiment and was one OF the first
and most active organizations which pro-
ceeded TO Siboney and San Juan and 1t
was the black fellows OF the Ninth that
saved the rough riders from annihilation
in that campaign. Captain Taylor, who in
the final engagement was ranking officer
of the organization, was shot all to pieces
and was taken to Governors Island, nearly
a physical wreck. But he recovered and
about the beginning Of the year 1893 Presl-
dent Mckinley assigned him to the posi-
ton of treasurer OF the National Soldiers
home In this city, where he showed re-
markable executive ability and in which
place he remained for about three years
giving him a chance to educate his chill
/ dren. Abouth eight years ago he wai
dumped from Washington 10 Fort Meade

Just as he was finally settled at Fort

CHICAGO, May 2l.-The theory that Hal

vanced by Rev Daniel j. McHugh, pro-
fessor OF astronomy at Depauw university.

the comet by the force Of unusual electrical
repulsion caused by the sun spots which
were so prominent Wednesday, he thinks.
1T is my opinion" said Prof. McHugh,
that the comet lost its tail some time
Wednesday night. There are records of
its having done the same thing in 1895 and
it is also believed that its tail was lost

(FrOm a staff cOrrespondent)

WASHINGTON, May 21.-(Special. 1.-The
president. the Navy department, congress
and the public generally were astounded
on Monday last when the news was flashed
from Annapolis that not a single member
of the class graduated In 1895 from the
naval academy had passed sufficiently high
In the final examinations TO entitle him TO
q commission as ensign, Never before in
the history Of the institution, which is the
pride of the country, has such a result fol-
lowed a two-years' cruise OF midshipmen
who were sent out following their gradua-
lion. 1t was learned from some OF those in
close touch with the middles that the OK
animation was the most severe ever i'm
posed. and It is very broadly limited that
officers higher UP were responsible for
what is said TO be deliberate attempt TO
''bilge' the class of '9S in order that they
themselves may longer remain on the
active list of the navy Whether this is
true or not the president and the secretary
Of the navy decided that the action OF the
examining board was altogether too drastic
and in spite Of the adverse reports nearly
all of the middies viii be commissioned as
tnsignS.
1t is probable too, that the Board OF
Visitors to the Naval Academy, which will
examine that institution this summer, will
so more carefully into the curriculum and
that a reformation In the exaction imposed
upon the embryo sdmirals will be radically
reformed The history OF the navy shows
that the sturdy graduates do not, as a rule
turn out TO be the ablest navigators and
seamen. There is many an old shell-bael

GROWING CHILDREN
rhe Period When the Nervous Activity

Against the practice of giving tea and
coffee to children we cannot speak too
strongly. Childhood is the period when
the nervous activity is at Its greatest.
The brain is ever busy receiving new inn
pressions. Reflex action. coordination
of muscles, and the special senses are all
under a special course of training.
"The nervous system is pushed to its
utmost capacity and long is the list of
victims that follow its over-stimulatlon.
In these little people nothing but harm
can come from the use of such cerebral
stimulation as tea or coffee. Bad, then,
as this practice Is. let us as physicians
be aggressive in it's prohibition.
"Do not be- satisfied by answering No
when asked as to their use, but let us
teach the families with whom We come
in contact that such practice is evil. We
speak emphatically because not only
among the poor and uneducated, but
among the rich who should know better

FOR FALLING HAIR
inexpensive and Good Remedy That
Nourishes Hair Roots.

The man or woman whose hair is be-
coming thin and ''straggy" and falls out
every time it is combed or brushed can
make at home hair tonic that will nour-
ish and strengthen the dying follicles.
Just get from your druggist one ounce
Of beta quinol and one-half pint alcohol
take home and mix with one-half pint
warm water. Some mix the ounce of beta
quinol with a pint Of bay rum Either re-
cipe will prove beneficial to the hair, for
1t is the beta quinol that puts the hair In
healthy condition and Keeps It so.
The care of the hair deserves as much
attention as the care of the teeth. Beta
quinol prevents dandruff. Use this tonic
every other day until the hair and scalp
are In satisfactory condition, then twice
a week, and your hair will remain long
abundant and glossy. s..r.
