PonItrY n b. Bass Drum.


During the latter years of the
war the armies were frequently
obliged to make rapid marches
without their provision trains
and at other times were obliged
to pass through devastated re.
gions, where there was not the
slightest prospect of obtaining
anything in the way of food. AS
a result OF all this the men were
constantly devising ways and
means of obtaining. secreting
and transporting food about their
persons.
On one of the marches of the
army of the Cumberland the SOL
diers had orders not to forage,
but as their ratIons we're rather
low, it took sharp watching on
the part of the officers to prevent
the men from foraging whenever
the chance presented itself. On
one occasion the bass drummer
of one of the regimental bands
managed to secure two turkeys
and six chickens, which he Sc
GREETED in the interior of his bass
drum. When they reached camp
that evening the band was or
dered out to play for a review
that had been arranged on the
spur of the moment for a distin-
guished officer who had arrived
on a visit. All this happened be-
fore the bass drum mer had time
to remove his live poultry from
the inside of his drum, and, of
course, when he struck it it gave
forth no sound whatever. This
exasperated the colonel, who
shouted repeatedly to drum har-
der. Finally in great rage, he
came down to where the latter
stood pounding for dear life and
sweating like field hand.
Why in blank, blank, blank,
don't you beat that drum louder?
he shouted.
Colonel, said the drum er, in
a voice husky with anguish,
there is two turkeys and six
chickens inside this drum, and
half ofthem are for you. na
Well. why in blazes didn't you
say so7 the colonel replied. Fall
out at once and go back to your
quarters.
As q matter of course the colo
mel subsequently shared in the
repast.

RAILROADS AND MOTOR CARS.
Does Auto Have Adverse Effect on
Passenger Traffic?

Not little has been said and writ
ten of late about the various effects
of the automobile demand in connec-
ton with the diversion to purchases of
cars of funds which otherwise might
be added to the capital held in saw
ings banks and similar institutions or
devoted to the purchase of securities
of the income-yielding class.
1t is now gravely reported that GER
tain railway officials are disposed to
regard the automobile as having an
adverse effect on the passenger traf-
fic of the roads. No figures are ad-
duced to show to what extent the
motor deprives the railways of bust
ness, and, on the other hand, there
are railroad men who are quoted as
saying that the companies derive posi-
tive benefit from the multiplication of
autos, apart from the freight earn
ings which are the result of the trans
portation of the raw material and the
product when finished of the factories
manufacturing such vehicles.
Furthermore, it is held that bust
ness is actually brought to the rail-
roads, particularly through the in
creased employment of auto trucks,
which haul four times the tonnage
that can be carried by wagons with
horses and in from one-half to one
third the time which the latter re-

The last precinct to report was Ra-

The proposition was to transfer the
