ARMY HORSE HONORED
FOR FAITHFUL WORK

Guardsmen who are seeing the South
west for the first time have not ceased
to be impressed by the strange customs
OF the Texans, and the tender sentiments s
hidden away in their hearts are strange
~ contagious. One miltiaman told of a
touching tribute paid to an army horse
at Fort Sam Houston in a letter to his
family here recently. At the time he
was convalescent at the army hos
pltal having had a slight attack of
fever. The letter read in part:
Within easy walking distance from
the fort is a grave. marked by a small
tombstone. on which is carved:
Foxhall. Faithful Army Horse.
Died Jan. 10, 1910. at the Age of Ss
This legend is followed by a brief
history of the horses faithful service
and the unusual honor he enjoyed after
retirement.
"FoNhall was the only animal on the
retired list of the army He was re-
tired in 1918 by Secretary Garrison for
t~enty-four years OF meritorious serv-
ice, including campaigns in Cuba and
Porto Rico. and an overland march of
LOCO miles from Fort Riley to Fort Sam
Houston Secretary Garrison directed
that the horse be attached to Battery A,
Third Field Artillery, for care and main
tenance, contrary to the usual practice
of selling army horses when they are
condemned"

MISANTHROPIC OSTRICH
HARRIES zoo KEEPERS
Must Be Interviewed with Pole a,
Cleanup Time.

There Is an ostrich at the Zoo who
Just naturally can't like human beings.
He is the big black fellow from Cali
fornia, and when the keepers have oc-
casion to enter the enclosure where he
is confined they prepare for q battle.
Only one keeper was found who said he
was not afraid of the bird.
"Ostriches are like people," he opined.
Let them now you are not afraid of
'em and they back water. When that
ostrich comes after me I just pay no at
tention to him and he leaves me alone. :.
BY interviewing others 1t was learned
that the usual method of combat was to
take an extra man in the pen and engage
the bird in combat. He usually carries
a long pole with which he can keep the
ostrich at a safe distance while the
other men are at work.

RECRUITING STOPS AS
BORDER TRIP FADES

Recruiting for the District National
Guard is at a standstill. Not a man ap-
piled at the recruiting tent at Camp Ord
way for enlistment yesterday, nor was
a man sent out from the four city re-
cruiting stations.
The inactivity of District troops at
Camp Ordway. and the dull prospects for
a trip to the border has discouraged
Washington young men from enlisting.
the officers believe
They are thankful that the chances of
border trip did not fade before the or
ganizations were up to minimum
strength.
