Corporal Had GnnH ta,.. hf
ciinlng Elevation Which Most r '
Soldiers Would Welcome. ' x il '
Some soldier was Corporal A. Lin
coln nrown. and he belonged to some
regiment, too, for at the time we speak
of he was In the Ninth cavalry.
Nobody remembers how It happened
now, but there was some mlx-up, and
there was no money In the treasury
for the disposal of the army, and for
Ave solid months soldiers hadn't seen
"what a dollar bill looked like. The
army paymasters were just laying
around and waiting for something to
happen.
Lieut. Col. John II. Gardner, now
retired and recruiting officer for the
San Francisco district, was a first lieu
tenant of the Ninth cavalry at that
time. In common with all the officers
of his command he was getting along
financially during the period of non
payment of troops by borrowing
money each month from banks. Lieu
tenant Gardner was in command of a
troop. In common with all the troop
commanders he had to loan all his
men money regularly so that they
could buy tobacco, and pay for their
laundry and all that sort of a thing,
and one of Gardner's heaviest debtors
In the troop was Corporal A. Lincoln
Brown.
There was a vacancy in a sergeancy
in Gardner's troop. The lieutenant
studied over the list of men he had
who were fitted to be sergeants and
finally he chose Brown as the best of
the lot. He had Brown called before
him.
"Corporal," he said, "I'm going to
give you that vacant sergeancy."
Normally when a corporal In the
army is told something like that at
least a grin of appreciation can be
counted on. Comoral Brown, how
ever, looked frightened first and then
gloomy. "Beggin' de troop comman
der's pardon, sah," he said, "but you
ain't got nothln' against me, has
you?" .
"Why, of course not," replied Lieu
tenant Gardner. "Why do you ask
a fool question like that when I Just
told you I was going to have you
promoted? Don't you want to be pro
moted?" "Ah should say not, sah," said Cor
poral Jones vehemently. "Ah done
owes you fo'ty dollars now, sah, wheu
Ah Is wearin' two stripes on mah
sleeve an' Ah ain't got no show fo' to
collect even a corporal's pay, sah. Ah
ain't desirous of assumin' de respon
sibility of tryin toe collect a ser
geant's pay, sah. Ah done got all de
wo'k toe do Ah can perform now,
Bah." San Francisco Chronicle.
Sulphur In New Zealand.
Sulphur deposits are found on White
Island, in the Bay of Plenty on the
coast of the North Island of New Zea
land, about thirty miles from the main
land. This Island, which covers about
600 acres, attains a height of 900 feet
on one side and opens to the sea on
the 'other. Its topography Indicates
an old crater, and the boiling lake on
the island, which is one of the awe
inspiring sights of New Zealand. Is a
further evidence of volcanlsm. After
the New Zealand Sulphur company
had spent 1100.000 In preparation for
mining sulphur In this locality, a vol
canic disturbance wrecked the camp
and killed ten men.
Nltro-Cotton.
Nitro-cotton, that produces such a
powerful powder, also produces a beau
tiful imitation of amber. Claim is
made that If one buys a meerschaum
pipe with an amber piece six inches
long at what seems to be an unusually
low price, one may rely upon it no
ing collodion a solution of guncotton
In ether. The cloudy effect which
some smokers like is produced by a
large amount of camphor In the so
lution. Nltro-cotton also producej a
fine substitute for tortoise shell
The Idea.

tipsy men look at themselves In a
glass?"
"To give them an opportunity icr
sober reflection."
