tightly to his jaws with both hands and
looked woebegone,
That was three days ago. Yesterday
Joe was hopping around in such a COM

close examination. Then he saw that
Joe's trouble was not toothache. There
were small ulcers on each jaw.
keenan, got a small lance, took Joe
from the big cage into a smaller one,
operated on the swellings and put the
animal in a room by himself. Although
Joe seemed relieved, he was still out OF
sorts, and wouldn't be comforted. The
monkeys displayed little sympathy for
their fellow-lodger.

The Adjutant General. as we'll rs
other military men, regards this ac-
ton as most drastic and naturally as
sumo that something serious must be
behind 1t all. Some surprise is ex-
pressed that the charges have not
been made public, in view Of the fact
that Captain Shewey has been de-
prived of office.
Various reports are current here as
to the nature Of the offense Of which
the Staunton soldier is accused. but no
one seems to be possessed Of the real
inside Of the situation. It is hoped
that the affair may be Strengthened
out without a serious scandal and
that the officer will be able TO clear his
god name of all suspicious.
