Major John A. Logan, who recently
died In battle in the Philippines, in his
oner military career, earned the repu
tation of a soldier, and at the same
time. In the face of almost Insuperable
difficulties, preserved his reputation as
a man who knew how the wear clothes.
He had an advantage in this latter
achievement, however, in the fact that
he was a handsome fellow. In face
and In figure and in dress it Is not
likely a handsomer fighter went into
the Santiago campaign. He was round
faced, and the expression of his coun
tenance was youthful almost to boyish
ness. There was a frankness in his
dark, luminous eyes, and a petitioning
smile was always playing around his
mouth. He seemed more actively con
siderate and obliging than any one
would expect of a soldier. And those
who knew him In Cuba, remember him
as a soldier.
In his bearing Major Logan was
nest Pointer. He was only a llttlt
above medium height, but was a
tightly-built figure, with square shoul
ders and athletic proportions. There
probably was a little too much exacti
tude in the studied precision of his car
riage and movements, but one who was
looking for a fighting man would pass
that when he measured his muscular
lines, his strongly sinewed neck, and
his well-poised head. His head, how
ever, was a little too large for a pro
fepsional athlete, but none too small
for a man who would some day fling
brigades where daring and discretion
would have them.
As to dress, there was not a soldier
about Santiago on the American side
who wag in his class. In this respect
Major Logan might suggest either th
well-trained beau or the rakish Apollo
of the plains. It depended on one's
mood at the time. His slouch hat had
a, wider brim than the regulation cam
paign hat, and it was of better qual
ity. He tipped It at a rakish angle and
dented the crown on four sides, as
they do where the cowboy learns the
tricks of dress from the Mexican cabal-lero.
His uniform and Us insignia were as
the regulations prescribe. As a West
Pointer he couldn't transgress there,
and as a man who knew the science of
dress he wouldn't think of doing such a
thing.
Uniforms may be made of the same
material and in conformity to the same
regulations and still be widely different.
Major Logan demonstrated that. He
wore his uniform with such pretty ac
curacy that one would never be brought
to notice it, but to observe the general
effect, because there was was a sugges
tion of abandon in the way he left a
button unfastened or cocked a lapel.
Soldiers didn't wear their blouses all
the time in that campaign. They usu
ally stripped to their woolen shirts,
liven In the matter of woolen shirts
there are degrees of effect. That, also,
Major Logan showed to be a fact, and
emphasized it by wearing a black silk
scarf always tied with a fetching ef
fect in studied disorder.
Such a figure as that he made when
he reached Tampa as Adjutant General
of the independent brigade under Gen
eral Bates that was sent to join the
Fifth army corps. One day he came up
from Port Tampa and met some Chi
cago acquaintances on the veranda of
the big hotel where the corps head
quarters were established.
"Hello, there. What? Is it Major
Ixigan?" with the accent on the title.
"Yes: didn't you know I was in the
Sirmy ?"
"No. The last I heard of you, you
were planning horse shows In Chicago."
"Iow, see here. Do Chicago people
think I can't do anything but run a
horse show?"
The earnestness and the suggestion
of injury done that he crowded Into the
sentence made it a little embarrassing
to his Chicago acquaintance.
WASTES.) TO SEE FIGHTING.
"I am not only In the army," he add-
?d, "but 1 have succeeded in getting at
tached to an outfit that will be with
the first expedition. 1 want to see
some lighting. 1 want a chance."
His "outfit" was among the first to
land at Haiquirt. The first night ashore
a lot of soldiers lound a warehouse full
of native brandy, and cultivated a lik
ing for it before taps were sounded.
There was enough of the strong stuff
to make two army corps drunk. Major
Logan discovered It, and twenty min
utes later he had saved the army from
delirium tremens by smashing the
hogshead.
When Bates' brigade marched out
over the mountain trail from Siboney
on the night of June 30, Major Ijjgan
was as exuberant as a boy. The brigade
had lain back at the beach so long that
it was doubted whether It would have
a share in the fighting. The next day
it had more fighting than any oth
portion of the fermy, and the soldiers
in that "outfit," who had been eyeing
Major Logan critically, therefore,
changed their minds those of them, at
least, who thought he was not a sol
dler in fact as well as In appearance.
There were many "sons of their
fathers" with that army, and all of
them had staff "Jobs," but when that
long day of fighting for Bates' brigade
was over there was one "son" who
had found favor in the eyes of the
enlisted men, and that is high praise.
tie can nght as wen as wear
clothes," said a first sergeant, and first
sergeantcles have to be won. From that
moment Major Logan had his rating
with his brigade. A man who can
fight as well as wear clothes belongs to
the army.
WAS A NOBBY INVALID.
The exposure and the hardships of
the first few days around the hills sent
the fever running through the brigade,
and Major Logan was among those
who went down with It. He was car
ried back to a field hospital and laid
on the wet ground. Even while he lay
there in the mud, half delirious with
the enervating fever of the tropics he
looked aa if he had arranged his cloth
ing to get the best effect In that posture.
Two days later he was being carried
along the trail on a stretcher. All of
the intervening time he had been left
In the woods waiting for one of the
overworked doctors to give him some
advice, if medicine was not to be had,
but still he seemed dressed for the
occasion. His woolen shirt was open
at the neck, but the knot in his black
tie was dropped to. the next button,
and his slouch hat, which was tipped
over his eyes, had four careful dents
in the crown. The mud on his uniform
Reemed as if It had been splashed on
It for stage effect.
When the beleaguering army at last
entered Santiago It was probably the
most unkempt lot of men that ever en
tered any city. Torn shirts and trou
sers seemed to be a part of the army
regulations that Jew violated. Faces
and hands were unwashed and beards
were as long as the four weeks' cam
paign . The other "sons" had caught
the infection and were about as disrep
utable looking as their fellows. Major
Logan, however, appeared in the PlaSa
de Armas with his uniform looking as
If it had Just come back from a tailor.
His boots had been cleaned of mud,
he had a new shave, and there were
four carefully placed dents in his
slouch hat.
In that campaign he had won a rep- I
utatlon as a tighter, and had preserved
his reputation as a man who knew how
to wear clothes.

"Ah, nurse," the doctor began, then
hesitated. Nurs Bella was very young
and had been In training only a few
weeks, but the hospital force ran
short this morning, and there was
readiness and pluck in the look that
met his doubtful glance at her.
"There a a rather difficult case as

"I'll try hard," with enthusiasm.
"Very well. There's brain trouble.

She went to No, 20 Jubilant, yet in
trepidation, too. "Brain trouble," poor

a window. He turned and took a
quick step or two toward her, where

"I called in to see Dr. James, who
Is an old friend of mine," he said,
when she continued silent; "but if he
doesn't hurry," glancing at his watch,
"I shall not wait."
"Poor tlhng," murmured Nurse Bel

that he is a prisoner;'' and to him gen

eyes, she said, l came to to amuse

In her purpose, "but It may get you In

him she said hurriedly, with a smile
that entreated forgiveness. "I did not
mean that. Why, you look as if you
had never," brightly, "never been ill."
"That's right," with a genial nod.
"I never have. Good thing for the
nurses, Isn't It?"
"Why?" looking startled.
"I might growl, you know. Pain's
an awful thing. Why, I've seen a man

"You must," firmly, but with white
