Threw but Seven.

The quartermaster's department in
Hoboken is anything but a place Of
JOY. 1t is where the effects Of many
thousands Of doughboys who "went
West" are sent for distribution. Each
pitiful package or bundle or box Is
checked up and sent to the nearest
relative. Occasionally, however, the
sOlemnity Of the situation is relieved
by the laughter of some returned hero
who comes to the depot to announce
that he is not dead and to claim his
precious belongings. The other day
burly negro appeared, wearing three
gold chevrons and a wound stripe
laughing heartily at the thought Of him
being reported dead. AS if any old
Hun could kill him! He told tale
Of terrible fighting and suffering, all
the time smiling cheerfully, and al
lowing as how he hoped his personal
effects would be located. A small
package, with his name on it, was at
last found and opened for final check
ing. 1t contained a wad of money and
the tools which had helped to enrich
the dark mana pair of dice. There
was much laughter, hearty handshakes
and back slapping, when the soldier
was handed the money and the African
golf outfit, which only threw seven
New York Sun.
