Goat Got Even.

One really unusual incident oc-
Cured during q recent military cere-
mony in France, and that revolved
about the goat mascot of one of the
divisions in the parade. The goat had
followed in with his men as beftted
a proper mascot, but once in the
square he was rudely relegated to
the rear ranks. 1t CHANGED that a
number of red-hatted staff officers took
up their position in front of the goat
and stood during the inspection at at
tention with huge bouquets out back
from under their arms. When the in
spection was over the officers stood at
ease again and looked to their bou-
quets. They were holding only stems.
The mascot had taken sweet revenge
and a square meal for the insult to
his dignity.

Which Has Made French Mill

"He was killed, but he gave them
-" was the answer. Of course he
did; that was his habit. II am one
of the five who are left" continued my
informant.
In April we were 100 strong. There
may be more now, but they must be
recruits. Victor short time ago cap
tured ten Germans and received the
military medal. Now he is dead. at
his post, writes Algernon Sartoris in
Chicago Daily News.
Sergeant Bouligny, an American le-
gionnaire, has a snapshot of Victor.
Underneath is written: "a typical le-
gionnaire." Victor was a Breton, born
In Morlai-. He was tattooed all over.
There was nothing in his military note
book save records of his numerous
campaigns. He was a soldier, pure
and simple. AS Bouligny says, he was
typical of all that was best in the le-
gion-courage, honesty, bravery. His
history was written in his heart. He
wore the medals of Morocco, TOnkin,
the war cross with several palms and
finally the military medal-a glorious
record. Victor acted always as a
stimulant he was always gay and al
ways kind.
On one of our long marches he saw
that l was suffering. He came to me
and offered to carry my haversack in
addition to his own. declined his
offer, but his courage and kindness
went to my heart, and in spite of sore
feet 1 arrived in Mount Melton with
my company, thanks to Victor.
Among the soldiers Victor's name
was proverbial for gallantry. On the
banks Of the fetid rivers of AMMAN,
on the burning sands Of Morocco, Vic
tor was there. In the mud and mire
of the trenches of France he was also
there. Always kind, always thought
full of others Simple and unaffected,
he related deeds of valor that would
move a stone; deeds that would en-
rich the already glorious military his
tory of France.
l asked his comrade how many
Boches Victor got. He answered:
"When l last saw him he was whirl-
ing his gun about his head. There
were about a dozen dead Boches
around him. I think an officer killed
him with revolver; couldn't swear
to it, but / think So"
When 1 last saw Victor in Paris a
little while ago 1 asked him how he
had won his military medal. I'm a
fit of bravery" he answered. Victor
was always having those fits OF
bravery; they are common in the le-
gion.
Now he is dead on some lonely bat
tlefield, but his is the death that he
would have asked. In the words of
Gen. de Castelman: ut is the best
possible DEATH" the only possible death
for such as he.

Hoodoo Ship Redeems Herself.


The American transport Sierra,
which steamed into harbOr recently
carrying more than 1000 wounded
soldiers, is a ship that "came back
according to stories told by Old-timers
who follow the sea. A dozen years
ago she rammed a coral reef in the
south seas and was, apparently,
wrecked beyond hope of salvage. If
the stories told about her are correct,
she has crashed into vessels anchored
in harbor, but she has sailed serenely
through the mined waters of the Eng
lish channel and evaded the German
submarines on the high seas as she
carried the troops to France. SO she
has evened the score and lifted the
spell.
. Incidentally, despite her misfOr-
tunes, she is a comfortable ship and
a good sea boat. Once she was re-
garded as unlucky and it was almost
impossible for her owners to get a
crew. When the war broke out the
Sierra broke her spell of misfortune
and performed her share in driving
autocracy and militarism into exile.
Any sailor will tell you that ships
have a personality. The Sierra just
cascades personality and tempera-
ment. Having shown the world what
she could do in the line of tantrums,
she reformed. She has made money
for her owners, despite her accidents,
and has an excellent record in the
service of her country.
