One of the recruits, the smallest and newest man in the regiment, had been toled off for post duty and sent to keep watch on the edge of a river that flowed some 600 yards away from the camp. At 9 oclock the officer of the day came around inspecting the outpost. The recruit was sitting on the bank of the river holding his feet straight out in front of him. The corporal had told him that if he sat with hia feet held up he would not go to sleep. The recruit was so busy holding out his feet that he did not see the officer of the day, who happened to be the lieutenant who scorned raw recruits. The recruit finally realized that the officer of the day had come up, and he arose, clumsily enough, and tried to look as soldierly as the rest of the men. But the officer of the day looked at the little boy In the khaki soldier clothes with contempt. Then he glanced across the river, and a happy idea struck him. he said to the Sergeant, officer of the outpost, you ought to have a man across the river. If they come in on us there we could be forming while they were coming across, if we only had a man over there to give the alarm. Yes, sir, said the sergeant. You go over there, Bald the lieutenant to the shivering Get behind the bushes little recruit. and watch close. If the gugies start for us, fire once, anyhow. Then you can drop over the bank and come back to the outpost the lieutenant paused for a moment, and then concluded The little recruit shivered maybe. so that his teeth rattled, and to hide his fear he merely saluted and hastily waded into the cold, dark river and across. The current was swift, and at one time the water came up to his armpits, but he got safely over, and then, alone in the enemys country, he sat shivering through the night, trying to make out the fantastic shapes that loomed up in the darkness. Abont midnight he heard some one walking along the beach on the American side of the river. He raised his rifle and The figure across challenged halt. Whos there? the river halted. asked the recruit. "Officer of the day," came back the response in the unmistakable voice of that individual. "Advance, officer of the day! commanded the recruit with all the dignity of a brigadier general ordering the formation of his brigade, and be recognized. 0, thats all right, my man, I cant said the officer of the day. advance across this muddy river, you know. How is everything over there? Advance, officer of the day, came from the recruit on the other side, Then followed and be recoguized. a peculiar click such as is made when the safety catch Is thrown back so as to permit the firing of a rifle. The officer of the day hesitated no longer. He plunged into the cold water and waded across. He stepped into a hole and went in over his head. He walked ashore so wet he could have been wrung out by hand. The recruit looked at him. Its all right, he said, tossing his gun to port, I recognize you. Then he Everything is quiet, sir. stood waiting for the officer of the day to empty a vial of wrath upon his head. But nothing of the kind happened. The lieutenant asked the usual questions, then waded back. And he never showed by word or action that he remembered the thing afterward.

The country between the two commands was infested with hostile Trained plainsmen, Sioux Indians. scouts who had been Indian fighters all their lives, abandoned the courier task as hopeless. Then lri ate Jns. Bell, company E. Stventh infantry, came forward and told Gen Terry that he would carry die dispatches. Terry gave Bell the papers and toid him that he was riding to his death. The scouts said "suic ide." Beil sa d nothing, but He rode principally at night, went. hiding in the dajtime. Twice he was within earshot of the thumping hoofs of the Indian ponies bearing their riders by his hiding place. A neigh from his horse meant capture and death. Yet Bell got through and gave Terrys message to Crook. Some years ago. when the Comanches, Cheyennes and Kiowas were on the w ir path along the Washita river, Texas, Sergt. ZachariafT T. Woodhall. with four privates of Troop I., Sixth cavalry, agreed to carry dispatches through the very heart of the redskins' country. The troopers were attacked by a band of 125 warriors of the allied tribes. Wood-haand his men held an advantageous place, with water and food and with an abundance of ammunition. They could have held off the reds probably until relief arrived, but Woodiiall said to his men: "Those dispatches must go through. Accordingly the little band cut its way through the circling horde. Woodhall was desperately wounded, but clung to his horse and his dispatches and succeeded with his followers in reaching their destination. They pinupd a medal of honor on his blouse while it was hanging alongside his cot in the hospital. IPSTATOESJSffiS Yl ; iatrlra lira, 'er fcred PHT tTO Grower la ( ap.

H.L. ll In Matter of a Private. Kiplings story, In the Matter of a Private, written years ago in India about a British soldier, was duplicated almost exactly recently at Fort Meyer, just across the river from Washington. Nicholas Davis of Troop B, Third cavalry, an enlisted man from the state of Kentucky, went daft over real or fancied wrongs inflicted by members of his troup, and, aggravated by drink, and a supobtained a ply of ammunition, barricated himself Ln the troops quarters, and began firing in every direction through the open windows at each private or civilian putting in an appearance within range. Fortunately his marksmanship was not good, and his bullets did no injury. The commandant at the after fort, exhausting all possible efforts to capture the crazy trooper without sacrificing the lives of any of his men, finally ordered him shot, and a sergeant and squad were detailed for that purpose. Instead of ordering a volley fired, however, the sergeant, who is a crack marksman, took a single shot at the crazed soldier. Only Davis head and the stock and barrel of his gun could be seen above the window sill. The sergeant's bullet broke the ammunition chamber of the driving the pieces of metal Into Davis face and head, stunning but not killing him. This remarkably fortunate shot prevented what might otherwise have created considerable comment, the ordering of a soldier to be shot without trial in time of peace. Davis was secured, and, if he does not recover his reason, will be transferred to St. Elizabeth, the government insane hospital. The commandant at to discuss Fort Meyer refused the incident, saying that his first duty is to report to the war department. St. Louis en Krag-Jorgens- Krag-Jorgense- Globe-Democra- Army and Navy.

CUTICURA Remedies Bring Speedy Relief and a Permanent Cure at a Cost of Only $2. I was a sufferer for eight years from that most distressing of all diseases, Eczema. I tried some of the best physicians in the country, but they did me little good. The palms of my hands were covered and would become inflamed; little white blisters at first would appear, then they would peel off, lea-- , ing a red, smooth surface which would burn like fire and itch; well, there is no name for it. On the inside of the upper part of both my limbs great red blotches, not unlike hives, would appear, and as soon as I became warm the n, t. ML almost go wild. I heard of CUTI-UVcura Remedies, got them and after a few applications I noticed them and a trial, gave thorough the redness and inflammation disappear. Before I had used one box there was not a sign of Eczema left. I can truthfully assert that $2.00 worth of CUTICURA REMEDIES cured me. There has been no sign of its return anywhere upon my body since I wrote you I was cured, nearly four years ago. Hardly a month passes but what I receive a letter or some one calls and wishes to know how I got cured, if I had Eczema bad, and if the cure has been permanent, etc., etc. I always take pleasure in enlightening them the best I can.
