COURTING HARDSHIPS.

That is a funny news story that comes out or Baltimore about the hardshps of a Naval officers wife who wanted to be with her husband at hls various stations. Her husband was ordered from Baltimore to the China station. And then-listen:
 She used an assortment of freight boats
 until she rejoned her husband at Shanghai
 Fights with Chinese rebels in progress
 and Mrs. Crosley busy finding craft of
 all sorts to keep up with her husband
 And this:
 Now she is on her way to the west
 coast aboard the freghter Tashmoo. Her
 husband has been ordered to Seattle.
 Why did the not come to the Pacific Coast by rail and take fine passenger ship from San Francisco, Seattle or Vancouver for Shanghai and avoid the freight boats and other hardships? Why did she not come to Seattle from Chesapeake Bay by train or passenger ship instead Of 8 freighter?
 The indications that this Navy wife courted hardships and weird steamships rather than hae them forced upon her.

The Army's New Chief of Staff.
(NeW York World.)


 Various inaccuracies in certain of the Washing ton dispatches concerning the appointment of Ma ior Gen. Douglas Macarthur Chief of Staff of the Army have served to create unfortunate impression with regard to the manner of his seec- tion Thus our neghbor the Times assumes that the qualifications of ten other major generals for the position received consideration because the President had been enormously informed that they would have gone the retired list before they This is perhaps a logical conclusion to be drawn from dispatches quoting the President saying that General Macarthur the only major general lin the army who would not reach the retirement age in less than four years.
 As The World pointed out when General Mac Arthurs appointment announced he is not the only officer of his rank who the full term but he is the senior major general whose age will permit him to complete his service Chief of Staff before becoming eligible for retirement at sixty -four. There other major generals who can do the same, but General Macarthur outranks them in term of service. At the same time he pos- sesses all the personal qualifications for the post and has {. record of brilliant service in the army.
 There are six major generals who are senior to General Macarthur, but the youngest of these will retire in May, 1892. General MacArthur will then cause he is Chief of Staff but because he will also be Number One the list of major generals. He will then be only fifty-two, and it is an obvious advantage that the head of the army should still be in his productive years.

 The coating of the coffee berry known as silver skin" has no beverage value and is removed before roasting This skin not only covers the berry but continues into the fold crease, from which it is very difficult to Some of this chan is taken out in the process of grinding, but a small amount is to remain. Any good brand of ground coffee bought at the store may be expected to contain approximately per cent of coffee chaff say the officials.
 However, inspectors in Mississippi recently found a shipment of coffee which contained high as 20 per cent chaf in some samples They immed- lately recommended seizure Examination by Gov ernment scientists indicated that very clever at tempt was being made to defraud the public. Chaf from the coffee bean had evidently been ground nodded and mixed with whole coffee.
