A certain Russian lieutenant who
was none too we'll of was one day
seen riding in tram. The other OIL
GERS of his regiment were furious at
what they called an insult to the uni
form, and they told the lieutenant that
he must send in his papers. The un-
fortunate young officer had no alter
native, but before he could do SO the
car heard of the affair. Immediate
" putting on his colonel's uniform Of
the regiment in question, his majesty
left the palace, hailed a passing tram
and, entering 1t, sat calmly down until
1t stopped in front of the barracks.
There he got out and, assembling all
the officers, said to them:
Gentlemen, have Just ridden from
the palace in tram, and I desire to
know If you wish me to send in my
papers. I presume I have disgraced
my uniform"
Naturally the officers were dunn.
founded.
Sire stammered the major nerv-
ously, you could never do that"
Then answered the car, smiling,
'as have not degraded the uniform
Lieutenant cannot have done so

LOMBARD TRACTORS
SENT TO RUSSIA

Four large tractors were shipped
Saturday from the Lombard Co. of this
city. They were consigned to New
York concern. but as they were heav-
lily Grated and had at the top large
iron rings such as are used in Grating
machinery for export it is said on
good authority that they are headed
for Russia, where they will be used
by the Russian government for war
service. The machines are said to be
the most powerful tractors that were
ever manufactured in the United
States. In tests held last week one Of
them dragged a heavy load over a clay
bank that it would have been impos-
sible for a pair of horses to have got
ten over without hauling load. The
machines are of the regular Lombard
type and equipped with new model en-
gines.
