demanded to face imminent danger for
days or weeks without faltering,
though less celebrated, is certainly Of
as high an order. 1t was courage
such as this which made possible the
long, tedious siege of Petersburg, per-
haps the most trying campaign IN Its
way of the entire war. The life be-
hind the bombproofs is wildly re-
called by J. H. Campbell.
I'VE were for three months under
continuous fire. Our position was well
within range of the enemy, who kept
up their fire almost without cessa-
ton. One never could tell when a
lucky shot from the enemy would be
dropped in among us. We kept be-
hind the bombproofs, of course, but
they were cramped quarters and an in
stant's carelessness in stepping be-
yond their protection usually meant
certain death. The rebel sharpshoot-
ers were good shots.
There are number of bombproofs
and a series of sheltered roads con-
Meeting them, so that we could pass
from ore to another. It is one thing
to make a charge or meet one, but
quite another to work day after day,
night after night, and not know what
instant will be your last. One gets
accustomed to anything, and curiously
enough one of the greatest dangers
was that we would grow so familiar
with our danger that we would ignore
it. Familiarity breeds contempt for
bursting shells and sharpshooters, as
for anything else, but to relax for a
moment and step for an instant be-
yond the shelter might cost one his
life"

as impertinent asif midshipmen should
demand an investiga ton into the lists
OF guests invited to the houses of SEN

just as much. and more governmental
ofhcials as the midshipmen are! If.
therefore. an official investigation Is
made into the matter of the midship-

fair for the Senator'S and Representa-

guests whenever these Senators and
Representatives choose to entertain.

that there shall be mo social status

they have the same power to enforce
this grotesque demand. If these con

invitation list of the Naval Academy,
they can do the same by the White
House, and the country may shortly
