the sergeant met n brother sergeant

the shilling. They both agreed the

the conclusion of their duties they

Major Butler Carried His Obstinaey
Right Into His Coffin.
Many amusing stories are told of
the great formality blended with a
humorous brusqueness and independ-
ence which characterized early RevO-
lutionary days. An incident of camp
life is related by the author of "Ro-
nance and Realism of the Southern
Gulf Coast"
In 1893 the first United States
troops that came down the Mississippi
were quartered at Fort Adams. Gen
eral Wilkinson, Colonel Hamtramck,
Major Butler, Captain Green and 9th
err officers were merry over their
punch one night. and the general by
some accident got his cue burned off.
Angry at the laugh which followed his
mishap. he next day issued an order
forbidding any officer to appear with
cue. Obedient TO orders, all the Off
GERS but Major Butler cut off their
cues.
"The vain old prlg!" said the major.
"I'll see him hanged before | cut Off
my cue to crafty himw And he bold
ly appeared without changing the style
of his hairdrcsslng.
The major was put under arrest. but
he declared obstinately that he would
spend the rest of his life in prison be-
fore he would comply with such silly
command. Soon afterward he was
