Of He General.

General Carter, who went to Tex
as in command Of the regulars sent
south for the maneuvers along the
Mexican border, tells this story of
an old Irish soldier: The march had
been a long and tiresome one, and
as the bivouac was being made for
the night the captain noticed that
Pat was looking very much fatigued.
Thinking that a small drop Of whis-
key might do him good, the captain
called Pat aside and said: "Pat, will
you have a wee sip of whisky" Pat
made no answer, but folded his arms
in a reverential manner and gazed
upward. The captain repeated the
question several times, but no an
swer from Pat, who stood silent and
motionless, gazing devoutly into the
sky. Finally the captain, taking
him by the shoulder and giving him
a vigorous shake, said: "Pat, why
don't you answerH l said, Pat, will
you have a drink of whiskyY E"
After looking around in consider
able establishment Pat replied: "And
