The friends of Major Pershing will- bo
glad to learn of one of his latest deeds
of valor. The Major Bailed for Manila
about the first of September by way of
the Atlantic. After a Bhort visit to some
of the principal cities of Europe, ho
joined a hospital ship at the Suez canal.
While on the Mediterranean sea the
ship ho was aboard met with a collision
and began to Bink. The Portugese and
Spanish sailors became terrified and for
getting the passengers, many of which
were women and children, they ran for
the boats. The officers screamed and
wrung their hands, but to no avail.
Quick as a Hash Major PerBhing forced
the mob back and with the bravery and
decision that our American soldiers are
noted for, held them back. With his fine
commanding figure erect and his voice
ringing clear above tho cries of the offi
cers and the frightened women and
children, he pointed a pietol at their
heads and cried in Spanish that he
would shoot the first man that touched
a boat. The effect was wonderful. The
crew halted and stood amazed and not
one of them dated move. With his firm
eye on the men he motioned for the offi
cers to take their places beside him and
pistols in hand they gave orders to low
erthe boats, one by one. Each boat
was manned with a sufficient number of
sailors with the women, children, and
other passengers, bo that not one life
was lost.
The Pershing Rifles gave their fourth
annual hop at the Hotel Lincoln, Friday
night. The company known as the
Varsity Rifles was organized in 1893.
The organization was due to the efforts
of Major John J. Pershing, at that time
commandant of the university cadote.
Its proficiency is due to his idea of com
petition, thereby arousing the greatest
interest in military affairs. It was dur
ing the second year of this successful
work, that the Varsity Rifles changed to
the name of Pershing Rifles. The cap
tains of Pershing Rifles have all been
men who have achievod special distinc
tion In the military world. Up to the
present year they were, Charles Elliott,
Joe Beardsley, John Dixon, CbarleB
Swartz, William Oury, and Charles
Weeks. The dancing hall was decorat
ed in flags and guns. Much of the suc
cess of the evening wae due to the fol
lowing committee: Mr. F. C. Williams,
master of ceremonies; Mr. G. W. Barnes,
chairman of committed; and Messrs.
Koremeyer, Swallow, and Woodland.
The appointment of General Wood as
governor of Cuba is approved by the
whole country as one of unusual merit.
Although he was not the next in line he
waB the first in merit and talent for this
particular position. HIb immediate ap
pointment of Lieutenant Haleey Yates
as captain of the guard is a correspond
ingly high tribato to Captain Yates'
abi(ty and character. For the promo
tion of a young man so lately graduated
to so responsible a position means but
one thing and that is exceptional ability
and trustworthiness, Captain Yates'
many friends in this city are very much
pleased bj the recognition.

ception Friday evening to the regents
