Los Angeles, Cal.- Habit saved
George Lee, forty-fve, recently when
he plotted against his life. He placed
the muzzle Of a revolver in his mouth,
put his mind in order for the end and
was pulling the trigger when he heard
some one call 'Right!'
1t was a word used more frequently
than any other in his work in down
town grocery. There Lee was accus-
toned to carry packages across long
room. Several persons were similarly
occupied, and when they would meet,
going in opposite directions, the one
with load on his shoulder would al
ways cry "Right!' The right hand OF
the other would go up in signal that he
would observe the rules OF the meet
ing, for the contents Of the boxes were
fragile and any interference might
cause a loss that would be deducted
from their wages.
While his finger was drawing at the
trigger, from outside came the clear
call "Right!' voiced by chance in the
conversation of passersby.
From habit Lees right hand started
to lift in signal, the finger released the
trigger, and the shell exploded, but the
minor twitch that had come when he
heard the word Of warning switched
the aim so that the bullet left harm.
less wound in his cheek. Persons who
heard the shot rushed to the room and
took Lee off to the receiving hospital
where his wound was dressed and his
spirits revived by the promise that 9
Job would be given him.

take STEPS TO
stop DRINKING
AMONG SOLDIERS

For the purpose of taking positive
steps to break up drunkenness among
soldiers here, the commanding general
of the Hawaiian Department has
asked the War Department at Wash
ington to amend general orders No.
10, 1914, so that the punishment for
drunkenness at places other than
those mentioned in the orders will be
discretionary with the court.
Various commanders in Hawaii are
interested in the movement to break
up drunkenness among soldiers, espe'
cially when they are in town: -..-
The War Department holds:
IF drunkenness in uniform in a
town be regarded as a more serious
offense than drunkenness at posts be-
cause of its publicity, more severe
sentence would be proper in the for
mer case than in the latter. The
maximum punishment authorized for
drunkenness-forfe of 10 days
pay-seems sufficiently severe for a
simple case of that -offense,. whether
committed wiIuIn or without the post.
