scratches again. "My son" There the
bit that could be read ended. and the
rest was meaningless pencil marks made
laboredly by a heavy shaking hand
1t must be that some poor mother,
growing old and wishing to see her son,
wrote to the postmaster asking him to
help her find her boy and send him back
to her. Often they do that, but just
three bits of the letter could be read,
The rest was illegible. The mothers
name could not be made out. All that
could be read were the three pitiable
pleas:

ter" my SON.. u
Many other letters as sorrowful find
their way to the postmaster. Hardly q
week goes by that his mail doesfi'f
bring him message wrung out OF the
grief of some one sorely laden. Usually
it is wife or a mother asking him 70
help her find ner loved one.
For the most part they are poor people
who write to him, and apparently they
think that the postmaster must know ev-
everyone. Sometimes the letters, instead of
being wretched are .absurdly sunny. Oft
en- one mail will bring a story both OF
tragedy and absurdity.

guish friend from foe.
In some commands there were nearly
as many different kinds of uniform as
there were regiments.
The reason for this was found in the
fact that the bulk Of the men on both
sides were either militia or volunteers
The militia marched to the front in the
uniforms they had worn before the war
The volunteers wore such uniforms as
their states could provide in hurry.
The result was cadet gray, In liberal
sprInkling, among the militia regiments
of the north, while blue was to be seen
at times in many commands on the
southern side.
Officers who had left the Z. S. army
to cast their lot with the south still
wore, in many cases, their old uniforms
of blue, because they had not had time
to secure the regulation gray prescribed
in the Confederate army bill that passed
the provisional congress early in fits ex-
istence
This led to some amusing mistakes,
as on the occasion of the advance of
General Patterson's army into Virg MIA
near Harper's Ferry, when, at the be-
ginning of the skirmish at Falling Wa
tiers, two Confederate officers rode up
10 the commander of Union battery and
shook hands with him, asking him to
what command he belonged. 1t was also
to cause some costly mistakes in bat
tie.
To the reader of the present genera
ton 1t is hardly possible to picture the
piebald coloring of some brigades on eth
er side so years ago this time

WASHINGTON, oct. Si.--An explain
alton ,of the superior military genius
exhibited by the revolutionaries in
China is to be found in ep1 s made
to the war department more tnan> Is
months ago by some of its trusted
agents regarding the activity OF Chi
nese organizers in the United States,
particularly on the Pacific slope.
These reports show that as far bach
as the early spring OF 1910 the Chi
nese were being organized into compa-
MES and thoroughly drilled by compe-
tent instructors. all of them white men
and most of them from real officers of
the national guard or non-commissioneo
officers of the United States army.
There were no less than five such COM
panies in Los Angeles alone, all armed
with the latest type Of Mauser rifles.
The organizations were regularly in
spected by q general officer whose name
was reported to the war department.
and who was said to be thoroughly conf
petent to organize an expedition. THIS
officers inspection duties carried him
periodically to Chicago and New York
indicating the existence OF similar COM
panies In training in those cities.
A significant fact disclosed by the
report is that only Chinese and no
Manchus or Tartars were admitted to
those companies and the purpose OF the
organization was TO educate the recruits
to a point where they should be able
themselves to return to China to or
ganize and drill companies. Most Of
these men disappeared from the United
States about Is months ago when the
military instructors were dismissed, and
1t is believed that they organized the
rebel forces now operating so success
fully in central China.
