Colonel stanton had been in Panama long
enough to begin to feel quite at home
some five years or rnore-he received a
cable from the President asking II 1t would
be convenient for him TO go to Porto Rico,
to which Stanton promptly replied: mo.
I am enough of an American to wish to
remain here sufficiently long to see few
results of my labors." But In the course
of a few days he received long letter
from the President. telling him the situa-
ton in detail and convincing him that he
had a special work to do on the island. He
accepted his present post four years ago.
The olden time Spanish constabulary sys-
TEN was remarkably complete. Each mu-
nicipality-there were seven on the island
was ruled by a detachment OF the Guarda
Civile whose business IL was to become
personally acquainted with the inhabitants
of their own district. Each member Of the
guard was judge. jury and executioner In
one. The efficiency OF the system was most
patent With license to kill any offender
who refused to obey or surrender, they ter
rorized their friends to the point Of obe-
dience and compelled them to live under
an undeserved reputation Of law-abiding
citizens. Colonel Shantons immediate
predecessor-the former Chief of Insular
Police-was a tremendous advance over
the former system. But he had been a
soldier and never a policeman, and organ
lied his policemen into military companies,
dressed them in khaki with gilt braid on
their uniforms and with guns and swords
for their protection. They were drilled and
trained as soldiers and We're soldiers-but
never policemen. A regular Porto Rican
regiment was already stationed on the
island and viewed these new men as inter-
lopers. and conflicts between the two were
OF almost daily occurrence. Stanton dis
banded the mock soldiery and built up a
new order of efficiency as policemen, and
soon had a force of eight hundred men,
armed with clubs instead OF guns, and

being something of a daredevil and a good

opportunity of trying his hand at corral

way, and, seeing his Willingness and recog-
nizing his probable aptitude for the work,

few years later, at knights Templar
conclave in Denver, Stanton won the
worlds championship and a 400 prize
''for expert riding and roping," exceiling
all corners in the skiful use or the rope
and in rldlng wild horses.

was unanimously elected Captain OF Troop

case. The owner was surprised and fired
at random. The colonel captured both the
owner and his gun. A specimen Of native
cleverness is a pistol made of a sawed-off
musket barrel, to which wooden handle
had been wired on. To shoot this primi-
tive weapon the user had to light the pow
der with hot wire. Among the swords
and sabres on the other side Of the room Is
the sword dropped by Henry Morgan in
1870 when he sacked Panama City. Next
to 1t is the sword cane that belonged TO
the son of President Gomez, who was
killed on the battlefield. Some of these
sword canes are of exquisite workmanship
with real Toledo blades; others are mere
broken bamboo sticks with roughly carved
handles.
The most delightfully."- serviceable sticks
in the collection are the badges OF office.

necessary blue silk cord that passes

Is wound around and braided, ending In
handsome tassels. This blue silk Is the
distinguishing mark of authority. Wound
with the blue one had only to touch the

rank.
Born in New York Stanton was raised
in the West, and spent much of his time

the Laramie plains OF Wyoming. where for
twenty years he devoted himself to the
raising of horses and cattle. This was in
