CUT THE ARMY RED TAPE.
~ ♦
Willich Knew His Men and They Knew
\ Him and That Settled It.
There are times u lieu the so called
"red tape" of the army gives way un
der the stress of circumstances. At
the battle of Chickamauga General
Wlllleh, who was commanding a bri
gade, incurred the displeasure of Gen
eral Hosecruns, the commanding gen
eral, by some slight omission. Gener
al WllHch was sent for and informed
by nie general commanding that he
must consider himself under arrest for
the present.
"You may leave your sword here,"
added Uosecrauv, "until your case la
tried."
"Yes, general, I will consider myself
under arrest," was the reply, "and just
as soon ns this engagement Is over, I'll
conie and fix up the matter." ,
"But, sir." said the astounded Hose
crans, "I want you to consider your
self under arrest now."
"Of course 1 do," responded Willich
promptly, "and Just as soon as this
fight Is over I'll see that the matter
is arranged."
"Rut. sir," expostulated the com
manding general, "I can't let you "go
into this tight You are under arrest,
f will assign an otlicer to your bri
gade."
"You send an officer to command my
boys:" cried Willich indignantly. "lie
can't command them! They don't
know him! They know me—I can
teach them. None of my boys would
know how to tight or what to do un
less 1 was with them. My boys belong
to me. Yes. inc. General Willich! 1
command the brigade, and I must fight
the brigade!"
General Kosecrans gave it up. Gen
eral Willich was requested to return
"and liKlit his boys." which he did
must successfully. And that was the
end of the matter.—Washington Star.
BECOMING A BRITON.
Eacy For Aliens to Acquire Citizen
ship In England.
A large u umber of aliens become
British subjects every year by taking
advantage »»f the naturalization act.
The process of taking out naturaliza
tion papers in Kugland Is delightfully
simple. An application *can be put
through in a couple of weeks if good
ami suHieient reasons can be shown,
while the average time elapsing be
tween application for a certificate of
naturalization and the granting of per
mission to tile the oath of allegiance to
the king with the home office, which
automatically confers British citizen
ship. is only about eight weeks.
The naturalization act of 1S70 re
quires that the applicant shall have
resided in the 1'iiiteti Kingdom at least
live years ai.d shall intend, when nat
uralized, to continue to reside here.
The lease of a house or an apartment
Is sufficient to . .^tabllsh legal residence.
The landlord's word is taken as suffi
cient proof. The applicant has merely
to till in a blank with the details of his
residence ami other information and
have the facts as to his residence veri
fied by one British subject, while the
applicant's respectability and loyalty
must be vouched for by others. lie
then files.the application with a £1 fee
at the home office.
A special Scotland Yard detective Is
assigned to inquire into the case and
examine all the statements on the ap
plicant's memorial. Three months Is
allowed him in which to make his re
port, but a few weeks usually suffice.
If the application is passed another
fee of Is required. The applicant
then has permission to file his oath of
allegiance, which concludes the proc
ess.—London Tit Bits.
A Puritan Jury.
That the Puritan fashion of nomen
clature produced souie very odd re
sults Is \ ory generally known. Tlie
London Chronicle recalls that James
Brome, In his "Travels Over England,
Scotland and Wales," published In
1700, gives a copy'of a "Jury Return,
Made at Rye, Sussex, In the Late Re
bellious Troublesome Times."
The names of the twelve good man
and true were: Mock Iirewer_Graceful
Harding. Killsin Pimple, ICnrtb Adams,
Weepnot Billing. More Fruit Fowler,
Ilope-for Bending. Return Speinmn,
Fly Debute Roberts. Stand Fast on
High Stringer, Be Faithful Joiner and
Fight the Good Fight of Faith White.
The Bishop's Place.
The bishop of Loud'Mi. speaking at
the annual meeting of the bishop of
London's fund at Urosvenor House,
said that churches did not drop down
from heaven any more than bishops,
though a little girl In his congregation,
evidently under that delusion, had re
cently said to her mot!: r during a tir
ing sermon: "1 nm tired now, mother.
Can't the bishop go back to heaven?"—
London Standard.
Like a Mental Moving Picture.
Baker—People who have been near

the events of their past lives are pre

-I don't believe it. Baker—Why not?
Barker—If it were true they wouldn't
allow themselves to be rescued.—Life.
The Attraction.
"You say you are in lovo with JMss
Baggs?"
"I sure am."
"But I can't see anything attractive
about her."
"Neither can I see it But it's in the
bank, all rlght."-Cleveland Leader.
One View of Marriage.
Every man who marries is like the

HELD IN
TRUST
By DWICHT NORWOOD
Sailing from London for America my
baggage was carried on board by a
steward. One of my pieces—a wicker
extension case—had no mark on it, but
finding one exactly like mine I carried
it to my stateroom.
I bud no occasion to look into this
case till we bad been out half the voy
age, or four'days. When 1 did I met
with a surprise. It was tilled with
articles used by a woman. Itealizlug
that I bad changed baggage with some
one, I looked over the contents to dis
cover a name or something by which
f might return it to its owner and get
mine. Here again I met with a sur
prise. 1 found no mark, but came
upon numerous little boxes containing
jewels which were evidently very val
uable. Here was a subject for a Job
of thinking.
Had the lady placed the Jewels there
merely to convey them, or did this
placiag them in a frail and unlocked
receptacle Indicate that she Intended
to smuggle them Into America? Had
they come into my possession through
an error, or was I to be used as the
smuggler? All the thinking 1 did on
the matter did not solve it. The only
thing I could do was to go to the pur
ser and if any one notified him of the
loss of a wicker extension case to let
me know. The ship having been out
four days and no one having reported
such a loss, the Inference seemed to
be either that the lady, supposing that
she had ber own case, bad not exam
ined Its contents or—well, the only
other supposition was that she would
use me for a purpose. 1 must await
developments.
The trip was a pleasant one to me,
for I made some agreeable acquaint
ances. There were a Mrs. Ilr.rbeson
and her daughter aboard, who sat a
great deal on deck. A gentleman who
was with them at times I met in the
smoking room. We fell to talking one
day about the run of the ship and
thus became acquainted. Passing the
ladles I have meutloned while he was
wltb them, be made a remark to me
which led to an introduction to his
friends. The mother was quite eor
dial, but the daughter seemed a trifle
111 at ease. However, since she was a
pretty girl 1 labored to make myself
entertaining: ana succeeaeu ju umug
away somewhat with her embarrass
ment or whatever It might be.
I was too circumspect tj> say a word
to any'one about my find. I left the
jewels where they were In the case,
which I shoved under my berth. Not
knowing what trouble I might get kito
in the matter, I preferred, if accused,
to be able to take any position that
might be for the best.*' But my inten
tion was to tell the truth.
The day before reaching port I con
cluded that I must take some action
with reference to the goods, which I
did not doubt had either been stolen
or were to be smuggled, or both, and,
going to my stateroom and locking
the door, I pulled out the extension'
case and lifted the^top. What was my
astonishment to see that It, contained
my own belongings and did not con
tain any other property.
There was a mystery indeed. How
the Jewels came into my possession
I did not know; how they left me I did
not know. But It was evident that
two exchanges had been made, and,
the second one having been purposely
accomplished, It was evident that some
game was going on. But k seemed to
me uow that I should never receive an
explanation of the Incident Neverthe
less I felt relieved that the property
had passed out of my possession. In
deed, 1 had about made up my mind
before leaving the ship to turn it over
to the purser.
The Harbesons, Mr. Ethecidge, the
man who Introduced me to them, and
I all made rapid progress in becoming
intimate and before reaching port
agreed that we should meet on the
evening of our arrival for dinner at a
certain uptown restaurant. We bid
each other goodliy at the dock at noon,
and at 7, attired in dinner costume, I
met my frieuds in a private dining
room. I was received cordially, espe
cially by the ladles, and after getting
warmed up with wlue Mrs. Harbeson
said to me:
"I have something to ten you pro
vided you will promise to take 110 ad
vantage of It"
I looked at her sharply. It struck
me at once that she knew something
about my find on shipboard. I made
the required promise.
"My daughter and I," said the lady,
"have done a good deal of smuggling,
not for profit, but to save money on
what we bring from abroad. We stop
ped at the same hotel as you In Lon
don. Believing that we were suspect
ed by a detective on the other side and
having some $20,000 worth of jewels
to get through the New York customs
house free of duty, we were at' our
tfits' end.
"My daughter, passing along a cor
ridor, heard you order your baggage
taken to the steamer. You left your
room unlocked. She went in and saw
your wicker case. We had Its dupli
cate. She put the jewels in ours, car
ried It 16 your room and took yours
away.
"On the ship we asked Mr. Etheridge
to bring you and Introduce you that
we might the better keep track of one
who held our property in trust, and it
was he who made the secoud exchange.
Having baffled the detective on the eth
er side, we knew how to fool the cus
toms men In New York."

XI. F. 15. No. 2. Sunfleld, Mich. — "I was
troubled with cczema. It began with a sore
on the top of the tcalp, broke out as a pimple
and grew larger until it was a
large red spot with a crust
or scab over It. This became
larger finally covering tho
entire scalp and spread to
different parts of tho body,
the limbs and back and in tho
cars. These sores grew larger
gradually until some were as
largo as a quarter of a dollar.
They would itch and if scratched they would
bleed and smart. The clotliing would Irri
tato them at night when It was being re
moved causing them to> Itch and smart so I
could not sleep. A watery fluid would run
from them. My scalp became covered with
a scale and when the hair was raised up it
would raise this scale; the hair was coming
out terribly. My scalp and body itcliud all
the time.
"After using Cuticura Soap and Ointment
with two applications we could notice a great
difference. My way of using tho Cuticura
Boap and Ointment was to apply tho Oint

after I would wash the sorus and scalp with

ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE.
Changes That Come When the Barom
eter Falls an Inch.
Few persons have any idea what
tremendous changes in the atmosphere
are indicated by such a rise or fall of
in inch lu the barometer.
A cubic inch of mercury weighs a
half pound. When the mercury falls
an inch a weight of one ton is re
moved from every 4,000 square inches
of surface. This is a ton for every
area five and one-quarter feet square.
If your house, for instance, is 25 by
40 feet, with nn area of 1,000 square
feet, a load of about thirty-sis tons is
lifted from the' roof every time the
barometer shows an inch fall—that is,
a thirty-six ton load would be lifted
If the honse were air tight But as air
presses in every direction there is as
much of a push upward against the
roof from below as there Is of a push
downward from above. So the roof
actually feels no effect from the re
moval of this heavy load. _.
In the same way a man of average
size would bo relieved of a weight of
about a ton and a half if there were
no air chambers in the human body.
It has been figured that a fail of an
Inch In the barometer over a territory
400 miles square removes a weight
from the surface of the earth of 160,
000,000,000 tons. If this were loaded
on freight cars, twenty tons to the
car and thirty caro to the train, more
than 260,000,000 trains would be re
quired to move it If each train were
500" feet long they would stretch out
la a line more than 25,000,000 miles
long.
The only noise that accompanies this
great transportation feat is made by
the wind, which does considerable roar
ing in the course of such violent at
mospheric changes.—Kansas City Star.
And George Did.
The battleship schools have made
some startling contributions to litera
ture. Here is tbe essay of a Filipino
sailor who was told to write about
George Washington:
"George Wassingham was sore be
cause Auierical persons is not free. He
sale t;> England on (naming his
own battleship) ship and say to King,
*1 express <leelaracioa of indypendence
for Americal persons.' King he say,
'Nothin' doin.' And Mr. Wassingham
tell Admiral Dewey to shoot turret
guns at him. Bime by king he say he
will not rule Americal persons egain.
'Let George do it,' say king, and today
Americal persons is free."
