RELEASED THE LADY.

But the UneaIant Judge Did 1t In His
Own Peculiar Way.
There are many interesting refer
ences to Lord Chief Justice Campbell
scattered about in the memoirs and bi-
ographies Of his contemporaries. He
was a man who inspired strong likes
and dislikes. The famous DIR. Kenealy
hated him. He declared that Campbell
found luxury in the infiction Of tor
ture and had q ratlike. cruel look OH
his face. Which settled immovably as
the Judge got older. The following
ceminiscence OF DR.. Kenealy is re-
markable:
Il remember an incident which
shows. although only in a slight de-
gree, his natural lack of courtesy and
consideration. A number of ladies
crowded into one of the passages of
Westminster hall for the purpose of
getting a glimpse Of the lord chief
justice. who was then a celebrity of
some note. AS he passed his button
caught In a beautiful lace bertha worn
by one of his fair admirers. After
vain struggle to disengage himself
Campbell deliberately took out his
penknife-everybody thought for the
purpose Of cutting off his button and
releasing the lady. Not at all. He
coolly cut hole in her handsome lace
and passed on with his sweetest
smile. Law Magazine and Review.

Feeding 5000 Men Mt Once.
Last year FL Paso entertained 5000
officers and soldiers at Washington
Park at a barbecue This was some
thing never before undertaken by a
city and it was a great success
FL PasOans have witnessed wonder
fully successful military parades, cele-
bratiOns and tournaments and Gen
Pershing and the officers and men OF
his command have at all times stood
ready to do anything and everything
for the people of the southwest
A visit to any one Of the regimental
camps is well worth the time it takes
and officers and men alike are glad to
have visitors at any time In these
settlements the organizations have
clubs: amusement halls; moving pic
ture outfits; bath houses; barber shops:
tailor shops; shoe shops; pool and bill
lard rooms. Post Exchange (the camp
stOre); photograph galleries; reading
rooms and excellent kitchens and mess
halls.
The comfort Of the men is due large
II to the efforts Of the various regi-
mental quartermasters. Capt l. n.
Bash. Sixth infantry; Capt. J. y. Pick
ering. 10th infantry, and Capt O. A
Seaman. goth infantry These officers
have worked night and day to make
their commands comfortable and the
camps are 4 monument to their sue
cess.
Excellent Personnel.
FL PasO is exceptionally lucky in the
personnel Of the forces stationed here
1t is doubtful il you could gather thou
sands of men together at random at
any point in the country and get
finer. more manly and cleaner looking
lot of men than the soldiers stationed
in oar locality. Gen. John J. Pershing.
who commands the Eighth brigade and
the FL Paso border patrol district
takes an active interest in the affairs
Of the community. He 1t was who held
a special military tournament for 5000
FL Paso school children one Saturday
morning in November last and he was
the happiest man in FL Paso while
playing host to this unusual gathering.
The brigade adjutant, Mai J. L.
Hines, adjutant generals department,
Is well known to all FL PasOans and
is very popular in town, as is Gen.
Pershing's aide, Lieut.. NJ C. Shallen-
berger, provost marshal
The Commanders.
Col. c. W. Taylor commands the
Eighth cavalry and Fort Bliss and he
long ago endeared himself to the peO-
pie Of FL BasO.
Col. W. II. Allaire, who commands
Camp Cotton and the 18th infantry, is
a great believer in FL PasO-he served
here over 30 years ago at old Fort
Bliss the buildings OF which may still
be seen at Harris mill Col Allaire
never tires Of telling Of the old days
and Of the wonderful strides this city
Of destiny, as he terms it, has
made.
Ell Paso will undoubtedly become the
site Of a permanent brigade post and
