collector Of internal revenue and Sec
ond lieutenant, in various cities
throughout New York State, and New
Jersey. He escaped, from the city
Jail in Jamestown, in which city he
was to be tried, before Federal
court.
Reno's portrayal was that Of a re-
turned soldier hero. He had worn
khaki. it is true, but his discharge
papers. were not to his liking. Ac-
cordingly, he. promoted himself to the
rank of lieutenant. He inserted q
and, last OF all. he altered his COM
mander's estimate regarding his char
acter, making IL read a mere excel
lent"
When the role Of a returned warrior
became too tame for him, Reno de-
cided to lbecome q trusted Federal en-
ploye, q member of'the United States
Food Administration. He made it his
duty to call on small bakers In central
New York, and, under false pretehses,
extracted large portions OF their cash.
tits said that he obtainedz large sums
from the bakers in Syracuse and Utica
before they. discovered that he was an
impoater.
Reno &drifted- into Rochester next,
and registered at ~one~of the leading.
hotels. and from there carried ON his
work Of extraetfng so-called license
fees and. taxes from small bakers.
However, his game was stopped. IN
this city, when United States mar.
shals took him into custody. F..

His Great Grief.
A terrible tragedy had come into
Pershing's life during his MeX!cah
border service thru the loss of his wife
and three l'ttle children who were
burned to death in their home at the
Prcsidto, in San Francisco. during MS
absence. His life became hard and
stern; not towards his soldiers, how
ever, but in the regina he Imposed
upon himself and in the objects ne 1ad
marked for attainment He threW
himself into his work with passion
chat commanded success. evidently
seeking relief from his private grief
in public service. 1t was said OF him
in France that he was never tired: he
could he called upon any hour out cf
the twenty four for consultation or
direction without complaint on his
part. in contrast with some OF his
famous colleagues in the Entente
Armies.
Pershing believed In teamwork. he
knew that whatever success the Ger
mans had attained was thru their uai-
fed command of the armies Of the
Central Powers SO he was not only
willing but anxious to see the same
principle adopted by the Entente
armies. He sank his private ambitions
and freely rendered the services OF the
last American soldier and all his army
equipment to General Foch at the most
critical point In the campaign. There
Is ssi.t, &c be no doubt that hts ex-
ample affected the other commands
and went long way towards bringing
about the untfication of the entente
armies under Marshal F'och.
1t was not until Pershing was GER
tain that the plans he had made with
the assistance Of his OWE sst.a1 so: \
successful campaign into Alsace- Lor-
raine had behind them the support OF
a sufficient number Of American SOL
diers that Pershing felt justified In
taking complete command OF an i'm
portant sector in the line Of battle with
the full assent of Marshall Foch ana
with the result that tina American
army brought the war to an end.
