TREAT FOR
(Scrlpps Newa Association)
, Washington, D. C, May 1 1. It is seldom
that a troop of cavalry of the regular army
is so wall treated in return for its gratui
tous labors in behalf of charity as has
been Troop H 'of the 15th Cavalry, on
duty at Fort Myer, Virginia, which took
art in a charity fete given at John R,
McLean's country house near Washington'
in behalf of the San Francisco tufferes.
The Washington Woman who had obtain
ed the services of the Troop was anxious
to do Something for them. She got the
leading caterer of the town to send ou
an elaborate luncheon of sandwiches, ic
'cream and cake, with some kegs of beer,
added to which she presented the troopJH
with a silver loving up, inscribed "Brave
ly they rode, and Well". Nothing has re
cently pleased army people more than
this act in acknowledgment of the services
of the troop.
