Judicial Dignity In Iruckcc.
Justice Liggett of Truckco is a fine
specimen of an old-timo juttico of the
peace , says the Nevada Herald. IIo is
not nt all proud on account of his posi
tion in society , but does "as the Kotnnns
do. " The justlco expressed some sur
prise nt the manner in which the courts
down this way nro conducted. IIo is
hero on trial , and says that at Iho end
of the first day , when court was dismissed
and tlio judge walked out , ho naturally
expected that gentleman to invite these
pi opont to como out und take something.
But ho didn't do it.
"Up in Truckeo , " said the justice ,
"wo hold court in tlio back room of a
saloon for want of a better nlnco When
n trial is concluded wo always allow
thnt the man who is beaten will walk
right out and look mud , while the man
who wins will call everybody up to
drink. And , " ho remarked musingly ,
"I don't know us I ovoirefused. .
"I had a case once in which n man
who was convicted of disturbing the
peace treated. I only fined him $20
just enough to oav the costs of co rt ,
which , of course , always include drinks
for the crowd and when wo walked out
I'm blessed if ho didn't call us all up
himself. And , sir , the man who had ac
cused him walked out nnd refused to
drink. I allow I'vo seen bomo mean
men in my time , but I never yet saw one
so men th'nt I wouldn't drink with him. "

"I know that something has disturbed

"But , my dearest , " lie protested , "it

Those inside started , but thought thut

The national council of admin'-tratlon of
the Grand Army of the Ucmib.-O asscmblod
In WoshinRton last woclt. The meeting was
for tno purpose of arranging for the next na
tional encampment. Among the notables
proicut were Uomraandor-ln-Chlof Polmor ,
Quartorinastor Gonor.il John Taylor of Phila
delphia and Colonel Charles 11. Frcoimin , de
partment commander for tbo state of Now
York. Accompanying these from Phll.ulol-
nhln were Cimirnnn John Joy Udion of the
local executive committee nnd Captain Har-
rlson Dlngman , secretary of the sumo or-
Kanlzatton.
The time of the encampment was tlxod for
tha weak of September 'JJ , I'sOJ. Various
important consiJeratlom combttiod to
bring about the selection of so
late u date. The council desired to avoid hot
weather. It will not conflict with tbo
World's fair ceremonies in Chicago , nnd
futthcrinore , It will rnablo farmer veterans
to attend , fn harvesting will then bo over.
General John Palmer , the commandor-ln-
cliiof. was u consplcuoiii llgurolnlho council.

buslncusliUe. lie U pornaps n trlllo below

" \V'o are polnL'to have n great encamp
ment , " ho said. "I Imagined wo i cached
Hood tide In Boston ; In fact , I said at Boston
thatuo should never again sno so imuiv
Grand Army men in line , but I want to t.iko
that back. The Washington encampment is
going to ecllpsa all others. Thousands of
our members li.ivo not seen Washington
since the war , and they will coino In great
force to taku advantage of what would , for
many of them , bo the last opportunity of
their lives to see the capital of the nation
they saved. No other city \vould awaken
the same enthusiasm ; none could offer so
many patriotic Inducements. Washington Is
the Mecca of the union veteran , and whun wo
meet here there will bo a greater assembly of
union veterans than has boon known since
the close of the war.
"Tho line of tnurch must bo shoitonod as
much as possible. Two or three men died of
exhaustion niter tbo Detroit parade , worn
out hcroci whoso frames could not stand the
strain. There was too much parade at De
troit and the error shall not bo repeated. In
the ordinary procession of nny magnitude
the left of the line never sees the right , and
that nukes tbo thing somewhat tiresome for
those who nro in the parade. My proposi
tion would bo to liavo tno parade start from
Four and One-half street , and after passing
in front of the White house move around
Lafuiotto ' squjro to Pennslvanla nvcnuo
and 'proceed eastward to the point from
\\honco it started. That would g'.vo the
bovs u chance to see each other and would
relieve the monotony such n parade as ours
must necessarily bo. Then 1 would mass the
entire procession on Pennsylvania avenue ,
nnd instead of Keeping the reviewing party
standing in ono place for three or four
hours , I would , with tno president and my
stall , ride dq\\n Pennsylvania avenue In
front of the Hues. That would glvo the eco
pie a chance to see the reviewing officers. "
"Have you hoard anything from jour let
ter advising Grand Armv men not to march
In processions which had In them the Con
federate llagi"
"Yes , but the comment has been generally
favorable. I wrote that loiter because I
thougnt It civ duty to do so. To me It U In
explicable that the rebel ilaa should have
buon displayed at the unveiling of the Grady
monument. Grady was a broad-minded man :
ono who would never have countenanced
such foolishness. The war settled forever
the question of whloh flag was to wave In
this country , and the southern men who
were most immediately interested accepted
the ultimatum. ThU latter-day sentiment Is
the work of thoughtless boys and foolish
women , assisted by a few men , who , though
old enough to know bolter , are rebels yot.
The rebellion Is over. Lot us hoar no more
of two flags in one country. "
Orders From Headquarters.
HEAlQU\UTiil3 : GllVSD AllMT OV TUB
Hnuni.ic , ADJUTANT GDNBIIU.'S OFFICE ,
Auusy , N. Y. , Nov. (5 , 1891. General
Orders , No. 5. First. The Inspe otion
of posts , to Juclgo by the reports
of the past Inspectors general , has
hoiotoforo not boon satisfaclory ; the com-
mander-ln cheif hopes thut commanders of
departments who are responsible therefor ,
will sco the necessity of a proper inspection
of every post under their command before
new oflicers are Installed. If an assistant inspector
specter should fail to bo prompt , it is sug
gested that the adjutant of an uninspected
post bo at once dotuilod and furnished wllh
blanks to act as Inspector of the same , nnd
directed to render his report with all possible
dispatch after Its next logulnr mooting.
Lopartmont Inspectors should render a full
report to their respective commanders and
the inspector general before the department
encampment ; the assistant Inspectors gen
eral will then bo able to make satisfactory
reports to the inspector general and ho to the
c'Otrinindor-in-chlef.
While the rules and regulations ( chapter fi ,
nUicloT ) rcqulro such Inspections , It Is but
proper and soldierly to obey and comply \\ltb
thorn to the full oxtant.
Second , The form of inspection , approved
by the twontv-flfth national encampment us
contained In the ropoit of the past Inspector
general Is as follows :
[ Hero follows the form of Inspection of
which all posts hnvo been advised. ]
Thlul. Post surgeons , or post adjutants
where there Is no post surgeon , should
render n report on form F , through the post
conunandor to tno medical director of their
respectvo ! depaitments , on Juno ! iO nnd December -
comber SI each jcur ; the medical director
should lender an annual report to 'tho sur
geon general as soon after Juno DO as possi
ble.
ble.Tho
The surgeon general reports that post sur
geons largely neglect to make the prescribed
reports , und that It Is necessary that their
reports should abe gUolho names of these
who died during the period of the same , with
company and regiment , number of post to
which they belonged and data of death ; post
auigcons falling to do so , medical directors
of course cannot lender conoct reports.
According to report presented to the last ,
national encampment the number of members
ol the order who dlod In the course of n year
'
w as about I per cent of the ontlro mom'bor-
shlp ; the commissioner of pensions In his
last ropoi t showed that the mortality among
the pensioners was aboutl.5 ! percent , ac
cording to the American table used by llfo
Insurance companies , taking thn average ago
only as fill years , no doubt too low , the death
rate would bo 2.1 per cant. This bhown how
Incorrect returns post suigcons must have
tniulo ; post commandcro should therefore
not only require their post surgeons to mnko
their loporta promptly at ditto when they nro
duo , but thov should also oxaininu the re
turns und satisfy themselves that they are
properly and conoctly made ; dcpaitmont
comnnndura must not only BOO that their
medical directors receive these returns
promptly , but that they also render n correct
and crodltablo ropoit to the surgeon general.
Fourth. The twenty-fourth national encampment
campmont authorized the erection of a rol-
diorb' national memorial hall nt Decattr ,
111. , In which shall bo preserved such onlclui
records of the ; encampments , dcp.irtmunts
und posts of the Grand Armv of the Repub
lic , and such tiophtos , rollcs , records and
memorials of the war of the icbcllion ns
may bo received and approved by the
trustees of the association. Pursuant to this
action "Tho National Memorial Hall associa
tion , Grand Army of tbo Republic , " was In
corporated under the laws of the state of
Illinois und chartered July ' . ' 0 , 1SU1 ,
The twenty-fifth national encampment re
quired tha association to provide In Us by
laws for an advisory board , to consist of the
commandor-ln-chlof and the department

Humor in ( ho Tronolics.
A touching Instance of the humor which
never deserts n true Irishman , oven in his
worst troubles , Is recorded , says Youth's
Companion. A soldier was seen In the
trenches holding his hand nbovo t ho earth
work. Ills captain asked : "What are you
doing that for Pat ! " Ho replied with n grin ,
ns ho worked his lingers : "I'm fcelln' for u
furlough , sure ! " Just then a rifle ball struck
his arm below tno wrist. Ho drew It down
- qulcltly and gr-isped itwlth the other hand
to chock the blood. Then n queer expression
of pain and humor passed his face , and ho
exclaimed ; "An" faith it's a discharge. "

at Fort Rlloy , relieved from duty -a sweet
boon to a soldier and died of old ago His
skin and skeleton have boon consigned to
Prof. Dvcho of the Kansas State university ,
ono of tha most accomplished taxidermists in
the \\orld , und Comanche will soon reap
pear "as natural as llfo. "
Dew Ill's Lltile Earlv Risers , best pllla ,
Storip .
Telegraphers' stones are unique some
times , and they do not hesitate to tell
them to ono another. . It is said that the
operators in New Iliiyon , having always
lived there , seldom hoar of anything be
yond the limits ot ttio city and their op
erating rooms. The fact was illustrated
iccontly , neuording to the Tolejrraph
Age , when an operator in Now York
remarked to the man ho was working
with in Now Haven that Parnell had
just died.
"Who ? " was the inquiry.
"Parnoll , " was the reply.
After a short interval , during which ,
it is supposed , the Now Iliivon operator
was in conference with somebody , this
message was sent : "If you mean P. T.
Barnum , wo heard that long ago , but no
ono knows who Parnem is "
Another story from the same source
relates to a farmer who entered an olllco
in central Now York and tent this
message to a woman in Canada :
"Will you bo my wife ? Plonso an
swer quick by telegraph. Although ho
waited the rest of the day , ho got no
answer , but the next morning he got a
night dispatch , sent collect , but favor
able. Tlio operator , In expressing his
sympathy , said : "Littlo rough to keep
you in suspense so long. "
"Look a-horo , sonny , " the farmer re
marked , " 1 11 stand all the siibponbo.
Any woman that'll hold back her answer
all day to a proposal of nwrriago , jest so
thot she kin sand it half rate at night , is
economical enough to make up after I
git her for all the loss of time and injury
to feoliti's I've sullered waitin'l"
No gripping , no nausea , no pain u hen Do-

pill. Safe pill. Best pill.
Story ot
About Orungo you can hoar number
less stories of Edison , says Drake's
Mngn/ino. Everybody likes him. Ono
mini who had for yeaVs been in his em
ploy as an experimentalist told of a visit
a number of men Jay Gould , Sidney
Dillon , Cyrus Field nnd others paid to
Edison nt the laboratory ono day. Edi-
faon eamo out of his work room , where
ho was busy , and shook hards with Mr.
Field , At that iiiHttuit something popped
into his head apropos of the experiment
ho was at work on. Ho never gives an
idea time to escape him. Without a
word of oxcii3o to the magnates ho
turned on his heel and hurried into his
don again. They waited and waited ,
nnd , by and by , tired out with delay ,
wended their way down Btairs. Shortly
afterward Ediaon came out and asked :
"Where did these paupers go ? "
"Down stairs. "
"Did they walk ? "
"Yes. " '
"That's right. I don't want thorn to
wear the oil olT my elevator. "
Then ho stood around and told stories
10 liis men. Ho is iv great man for
stories , and it is ti tradition among his
employes that tho.y can toll him the
same story every day for n wool : and ho
will never tire of it , nor , in fact , show
any sign of having hoard it boforo.
