cxpicssion the fortune of war is thuMingulur fact that Major General Leonard Wood tho present military governor of Santiago province is now in command of his former com manding olllcer Tliis strange statu of nflaiis ia explained lust a little more than two years ago General Wood was mirgeon of the Fifth Hcgiment infantry with tho rank of captain and after ho had left tho serv ice to practice medicine in civil life at Washington he was remembered fondly by the entire regiment as an ollicer who was fond of athletics especially foot ball and wrestling At the opening of the late war lie was appointed colonel of the rough riders and for gallant and efllcient services lendered ho earned liispiiMinl rank and appointment Dur ing tht entire war thu Fifth was the only reguwir infantry regiment that did not have a chance to see service but nft er the protocol had been signed and tho fighting troops were being sont homo the Fifth was detailed to do guard duty lit Santiago under General Wood So it now happens that General Woods old colonel is under his com mand as are also tit her officers who used to lank him when he was only a captain That is the way tho world moves up and down Verily there is much truth in the saying that Ho who takes vour orders today may bo your commander tomorrow New York Herald Ire It learn that Colonel Funston of tho Twentieth Kan sas was the fiiht man to enter Malolos for ho has tried to bo at tho front iu every fight At Bayaino Cuba says tho Iola Kan Registor whore ho was ono of 400 niountci Cubans who charged a lino of 2500 Spanish infantry waiting to receive them with cannon at the an gles his horse was swept from under hiin by a charge of canister and he was left on foot 30 yards from tho Spanish lines I saw I could bo of no further use he remarkod in telling tho story to the writer hereof so I took tho sad dle and bridle oft my dead horso and walked oil tho field Think of that His horso had just been killed by a cannon shot and 2500 men only ill yards away were shooting at him and yet he remembered tlmt saddles and bridles were scarco and dear and staid in that fire till he could carry his iiwayl No wonder that with such a leader the Twentieth Kansas is making a glorious record IIoxi lie Moon tlluiliN Mount llooil From tho point of view of most Port hinders the moon was launched tho other evening on its journey to the zenith squarely from the peak of Mount Hoed Tho glow of tho sotting sun had hardly failed from tho big mountain when his substitute poked its noo over tile north slope and sat for a second on the hiionldcr half way up to the summit like the earth on tho shoulder of Atlas Then it journeyed diagonally up the slopo till it reached tho peak dipping n little k that tho rugged outlines of tho mountain stood out sharply against the deep red sphere Tho moon left tho summit like a vast balloon making n little southing nil tho while It seemed ii to hang suspended a few minutes bo fore going farther but scon
