For Spccitic Use,

When the Irish Volunteers were or
dered to give up their arms, Limerick
man was making his way to the town
hall to give up his rifle to the military
authorities. He was determined to put
it out of action before handing it in, so
he hit it a tremendous whack against a
convenient lamp-post and completely
bent the barrel. Then he walked in and
handed his rifle to an officer, who was
rather surprised, and asked:
What kind of a rifle is that, my
man.
"Oh," replied the Volunteer, that's
one had for firing around corners

Grand Dukes Playful Way

The Grand Duke Nicholas is not a man who talks. but he has a playful way with him at times. according to the story told by Julius West in Soldiers of te Czar" Iris Publising company. Sometime ago, during an inspection. the grand duke was standing next to the Emperor, few yards away from a group of generals. He ordered General Russky, then in command of the forces in that region. to step forward. The grand duke next ordered a private sol dier to come forward and hack off the generals epaulettes. We can imag- ine," says MT. West, "the dismay of the other generals as the soldier obeyed.
 "'Now cut mine off was the next order. The soldier did so. Now put them on his shoulders D
 It was the grand dukes playful little way of promoting Russky to the rank of adjutant general. the highest in the Russian army.
