Intense Rivalry Between Army Navy Departments. and An army offlcer in Washington on a has directed attention to difficulty officers are experiencing In securing re'Tiiits for the army in orJar to 11 "P to anywhere near its legal ;uota. He added that the scarcity of material for the raakins of fighting aien had resulted in a peculiar condi-:ioin certain places where there are .loth army and navy recruiting depots. It has been charged that officers in : barge of naval recruiting have swiped" recruits that had been promised to the array, and vice versa, so keen has become the rivalry between the two branches of the service. He (jointed to a recent occurrence at Sioux City, which is considered one :if the best recruiting point3 in the I'nited States. The army was the first id establish a station there. Then followed the marines, and lastly the navy tame in its quest for sailormen. At first, it is said, the three officers in harge of the several stations were on friendly terms, but that condition is said to exist no longer. Each officer is .tying to outdo the other, and any on each other's territory is quickly and hotly resented. It is understood that an applicant is not enlisted until he reaches headquarters, and many are said to be enticed to rival stations. Among the causes advanced for the scarcity of material for the army are the severe penalties that and ire inflicted by the courts-martia- l the absence of "extras'' in the menus of the military posts, due to the abolition of the army canteen, which for uierly supplied a company fund to provide butter, milk and other things not contemplated in the army supply list. r ADVICE OF THE "TOURIST." 01 o I MADE LIVING FROM RUBBISH. Queer and Profitable Occupation Washington Man. of A queer character who frequented the streets of Washington several years ago is said to have recently passed away in New York city. It was his practice during the regime of the machines to go jh! ah'iig the gutters on the main thoroughfares of the city every morning before the hand sweepers were out of their beds and delve into the piles of refuse that had been cast up by sweepers, it is said he found many articles of value and frequently money In the rubbish. The boys of the streets called the old man "Jack the Dipper." His right name was said to be McCarthy, and he was described as "lively and full of fun." One morning just at the peep o' dawn McCarthy is said to have unearthed a pile of silver dimes and quarters and some nickels in one of the street piles. In all the find amounted to about three dollars, and the "dipper" declared that he felt like The pile was in front a Rockefeller. of a barroom, and he thought that the money had perhaps been lost by some drunken fellow who fell into the tstreet after the saloon had closed at midnight. Ever afterward he made it a point first to visit the saloon fronts along iiis "route" in quest of the losses of some belated "drunk." In Xew York he Is said to have been employed as a member of the great "flock" of "white wings." street-sweepin- e irToriT .r& kP tanks filled with water and their function is to flood the threatened building when the fire appears. There is no question about the utility of these attachments, but why should all regard for appearance, not to say beauty, be overlooked In their design? in preserving If there is anything some uniformity in whaat artists and others delight to call the sky line of the streets of the city, why is the bare water tank perched and unadorned alhigh up on the roofs of buildings lowed?" "Have you any idea of what it costs to put up one of those unadorned water tanks as you term them?" asked one of the group, who heard the remarks of the critical citizen. "Perhaps if you did you would think they were beautiful, even though without ornamentation or artistic form as you suggest. "That's the usual argument put up by the ignorant sordid," replied the "Cost has nothing to first speaker. do with beauty and the present structures are a disgrace to the city." Washington Star.

Representatives in congress have a great deal said about them that tax the imagination, and the statements no doubt have effect upon persons who are not acquainted with the mild nature of the average representative The opinion of a certain careful lady from the west at a reception the other day went to show that the reports that have reached her relative to the "M. C.'s" have not caused her opinion of legislators to soar. "Why," she said to a group of callers. "1 think Washington should get a larger police force. I am actually afraid to allow my daughter to go upon the streets alone." One of the men assured her that she should have no fears, for, if he was correctly informed there are a great many daughters who go upon the streets alone.
