BACKBONE OF ARMY.
(ToDcommLslont Officers the Un
glorlfied Sinews of War.
With Dallsnltrd Aallltr- Work,

taaOarrlaaraoCOkllTlaa.
The recruit of the army no looncr
swears that he "will obey the com
mand of all oflicersploceilaboveuitu"
than he falls Into the hands of a cor
poral. This soldier, with the two clean
white chevrons on his sleeves, looks
him over, guides him to a bathing
place and begins to lick him into shape.
He begins by teaching him how to
stand, how to turn around, where to
keep his eyes and all the small details
of the soldier business. He impresses
on him the necessity of quick doing,
and cautions that the officers are there
to think. Then the recruit is shuttled
on to a sergeant, who places him in a
set of fours and teaches him how to
' find his place and what to do when he
finds it. He finally fails into the bunds
of the first sergeant in company drill,
lie may get an occasional sight of bis
captain, but he learns to know and em
ulate his sergeant.
The "noncom." is the teacher. His
unlimited ability to work and his un
dying patience straighten up round
shoulders, liven up shuffling steps and
make a sturdy soldier of the raw re
cruit. He works always and forever,
and executes the orders of his supe
riors quickly and accurately. He
serves as a model to be copied after by
the private he is the backbone of the
'army.
Glory seldom comes to the "non
com." A long time-ago a certain Sergt.
Jasper won a permanent place in his
tory, and more recently Sergt. Ham
ilton Fish died bravely at the front.
The "noncom."' works unnoticed, like
the line player in the football team,
because he doesn't run with the ball,
but he is the backbone that holds the
ribs together. When the battle Is hot
and sweat mingles with blood on the
sodden field, when bullets whizz and
shells scream, when comrades sink to
the ground and turn on their faces, the
officer lifts his sword on high and steps
forward into glory. The "noncom."
speaks the quiet "Steady, boys!" and
walks into the jaws of death, shooting
his way into the corridors of oblivion.
The captain knows he will be-famous if
he survives famous if he dies. The
sergeant or the corporal knows his
wife and children will weep over their
loss, his comrades that survive him will
bury him in a soldier's grave wrapped
in- his blanket. He is too numerous
for the historian to mention; he was
simply doing his duty. Yet if the vic
tory is won it is because he is in his
place and doing this same duty.
Under the new tactics in use by the
United States army companies no
longer fight with men shoulder to
shoulder under the direct command
of the captain. Much stress is laid on
tne skirmish drill, in which sets of
fours under corporals and squads un
dr sergeants fight in open order.
firing at will after the captain has or
dered "commence firing." The cor
poral is responsible for his set of
fours and the sergeant for his squad.
ine nrst sergeant is in a manner re
sponsible for the entire company and
is ready to assume command when his
officers ore shot down. The new ar
rangement gives opportunity to the
"noncom." to show himself . It remains
to be seen whether or not he will break
into fame.
It is not in battle, however, that the
noncommissioned officer earns the
title of "backbone," for in the fight the
fcneating private is a necessary per-
son. In- the camp the white-chevroired
soldier makes his presence known and
felt. The first sergeant, gruff, stern,
severe, kind, man of all work and all
intelligence, father of his company
and mother, too, in camp, is in charge
of his men. He looks after the com
pany quarters, tents, bedding, cloth
ing, knows all about the kitchen and
sees to the equipments. He calls the
roll, details the guard, knows the abil
ity and willingness of every soldier of
his command and is the disciplinarian
and mouthpiece of his company. He
is the go-between for privates and offi
cers, adjusts quarrels and disseminates
advice. The company books, though
not intricate, are tedious, and are kept
by him, and he reports the dead to
his captain. He seems to be in every
place at the same time. He is the model
soldier.
The literature of the present war
it yet- unwritten. Glorious victories
nave been won and admirals and gen
erals have been launched into ever-
Irsting fame. It is to be hoped, when,
the war correspondents get back to
iuc tjuici ui wieir oesKS, iney will not
have been blinded by the glare of up
lifted swords and glittering shoulder
straps to the bravery and courage of
the "noncommissioned man." There
is room in history for the "backbone
of the army." Kansas City Star.
Long Canoe Voyages.
Guy E. Lee, a student in one of Wis
consin's universities, lately started in
a canoe from Madison to Brazil. He
went across Lake Monona and fol
lowed the Yahara south. He will go
down the Itock river to the Mississippi,
thence to New Orleans, across the
Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean sea to
the South Atlantic ocean and down to

New Friends.
The disinterested readiness of tho
Spaniards in Santiago to shake hands
with the Americans possibly reminds
Mr. Fltzsimmons of the surprise he ex-
perienced on finding how many new
- friends he had when he stepped out of

The expected hn happened, and yel
low fever has attacked our troops at
Santiago. The first reports that were
permitted to reach the public were
dated July IS, on which day there were
14 new cases. Within three or four
days after that the total number of
cases to date was admitted to have
been upward of 300, so that it is certain
that the disease lias been among the
troopi for some time, probably having
attacked them almost immediately
after the landing 'ins made.
The policy of conccalmeut was
wholly justifiable at that time, tor a
confession of the truth would have
served no purpose In protecting the
home ports, and would simply have en
couraged the Spaniards to delay sur
render, and would have caused unavail
ing auxiety aud discouragement at
home.
All the accounts of the epidemic
agree that the disease is in an unusual
ly mild form, by far the greater num
ber of those attacked recovering after
the normal period of not very great
suffering. Among the sufferers were
very many of the Red Cross surgeons
aud nurses, all of whom, so far as is
known, have entirely recovered or are
convalescent. Many Immune surgeons
and nurses nre on the way now to San
tiago, and w ill be asiigned to the fever
hospitals immediately upon their ar
rival.
Now that there is1 no human enemy
in our way. our sanitary officers in the
conquered province have an excellent
opportunity to give to the world an
object lesson in cleauliness. And we
are perfectly confident that, with the
filth of Santiago destroyed .the houses
cleaned and disinfected, the infected
huts burned, and our camp) removed
to the hills as far as that may he pos
sible. Gen. Vomito Negro will follow
the lead of Gen. Toral and wield to the
inevitable.
We have always believed that the
chief reward to our country for un
dertaking this modern crusade against
the Saracen, and one that will fully
compensate us for expenditure of
blood and money, will be the libera
tion of our southern states from the
constant menace of yellow fever. We
are fighting not only for the freedom
of Cuba from Spanish tyranny, but for
the freedom of America from Spanish
disease. The accomplishment of the
first object is almost realized, and that
of the second is plainly in sight.
It is not expeoted, however, that this
glorious victory can be won without
a struggle, and we therefore welcome
the battle which is now- on, fearful in
deed that the loss may be heavy, yet
with no misgiving as to the outcome of
the contest. Medical Hecord.
DICK'S GOOD TIME.
He Was a Very Humane Bor and He
Was Enjoying Hli Weil
Earned Reward.
A portly gentleman sat on the porch
and smiled, while a small boy, also
smiling, painted the front fence.
"Look at that boy," the portly man
remarked to a visitor; "he thinks he is
having a good time. A small boy is
surely the drollest creature on earth.
When I was a youngster I remember
that there were certain kinds of work
I considered play, and one of thim was
painting. I was always crazy to paint.
.Many times I have taken a bucket of
muddy water and an old paint brush,
and have spent a whole half day put
ling a thick coat on the side of iuy fa
ther's barn.
"So with my boy, Dick.the little chap
painting the fnce; he has always been
crazy to paint. He is enjoying himself'
now you can see he is; and re will
paint that whole fence, too, jiut a?
well as he knows how. I don't care if it
is a tfiile smeared; he's getting jov,
solid joy, thicker than the paint on
his hands and clothes.
There's a mean side to it, too; he
wanted to paint the fence and I wanted
the weeds pulled out of the yard. So.
like an underhanded rascal, I bar
gained with him; I told him that if he
would pull all the weeds out I would
let him paint the fence. He went
through the other job like a soldier
he hates to pull weeds all boys do
and now he thinks h is getting his re
ward. It is a downngnt shame to fool
him that way don't you think so?"
the portly gentleman chuckled
again, and the small boy, wild with
joy, went on plastering paint on the
fence. Detroit Free Press.

Vaalta.
The doors of the mint are closed
every week day. promptly at four
o'clock In the afternoon. After that
hour no one but mint employes have
any business within the wulls which
euclotc'so much, money, ami no one
can either stay in or get in without a
special permit from the superinten
dent. .Needless to tuy, this is difficult
to obtain.
Simultaneously with the closing of
the doors at four o clock the first shift
of the ti It; lit guard goes on duty. The
shift is cumposed of '.he captain af the
guard and 11 stalwart men. Af the
men file cut to begin their round eaeh
one is handed a big Colt's revolver of
Hie most approved pattern and loaded
with big cartridges.
From then on till midnight seven of
the 11 guards patrol without cessation
every Uuor of the inside of the mint,
from the corridors of the gloomy
vaults where, away down in the earth,
are stowed eighty-odd million dollars
in silver aud almost as much gold, to
the top floor, where there Is nothing
more valuable than machinery. Placed
at frequent intervals throughout the
corridors ore electrical devices for en
abling the captain of the guard to keep
tabs ou his men. Kuch uf these little
machines communicates with the ro
tunda opposite the Chestnut street en
trance to tiie mint. Here it is thai the
captain is stationed all through the
long hours of his shift. Kvery two min
utes and a half the central machine In
the rotunda denotes the presence of
some one of the guard at some par
ticular station in the building. If it
doesn't, then the captain knows that
something is wrong, and he immedi
ately proceeds to discover what it is.
But it has been a long time since the
little machine failed to scud forth its
announcement at the proper time.
For the mint guards are patrolling up
and down outside the big building,
carefully watching that no suspicious
characters approach too near the vast
treasure lcil in their care.
Promptly at midnight the second
shift of the night guard puts in on ap
pearance to relieve the early shift. It
is also composed of a captain and 11
men, and they ni e split up. as the other
squad, into inside and outside details.
From midnight cn until seven o'clock
in the morning they ful.ow in the foot
steps of the first shiit, with every
faculty alert to catch an intruder.
The big revolvers are not the only
weapons upon which the guards have
lo rely. On each side of the main cor-!
ridor leading from the Chestnut street
entrance stands a walnut case.
Through the polished glass front of
one frown 20 Winchester rifles. The
other contains as many ugly-looking
carbines. To grab these dispensers of
death would be but the work of an in
stant for the guards, and then woe be
unto any man or men upon whom il
might be found necessary to turn them.
For the revolvers there is kept con
stantly on hand in the mint 500ionndf
of ammunition, and for the rifles and
carbines 2,.'00 rounds. Each of the
guards is an expert in the ue of both
the pistol and the gun. and each is en
dowed with a plentiful stock of cour
age. Hence a combination cupable of
successfully resisting almost anything
less than n regiment.
Superintendent Hover and Assistant
Custodian 1,'nnisay both talked to the
Inquirer reporter about the methods
in use to protect the mint and its con
tents. Both smiled significantly when
the possibility of one getting uwny
with a portion of the vast treasure was
suggested.
"It would be folly for anyone lo try
it," was the superintendent's only com
ment. To it Mr. Itameay nodded em
phatic assent.
"I have been here for a good many
years," the latter said, "and no such
attempt has ever been made. It is
practically impossible for anyone to
break into the mint from the outside,
and no one could secrete himself in the
building during the hours when it is
open to visitors and hope to avoid dis
covery. We search every nook and
corner of the structure carefully as
soon as the doors are closed for the
day, and you may rest assured if any
one who hud no business within these
walls was found he would regret the
day he was born."
In addition to the two shifts of night
guards Superintendent Boycr nnd As
sistant Custodian liamsay have u hublt
of dropping in at the mint at odd hours
of the night to sec that everything is
going on all right.
The mint Is connected with the cen
tral telephone station, and should
there be trouble the captain of the
guard could communicate with police
headquarters in a brief space of time.
When the trouble with Spain renched
a crisis, however, it occurred to Mr.
Iloycr that it uiight be well to be con
nected directly with the central police
station In (he city hall. IJe communi
cated his Ideas to Director of the Mint
Preston, and. wits told to go nhcad.
Consequently it will not be many days
before n hurry eall can be sent from
the mint to the police department
without the delay incidental to a con
nection through "hello" headquarters.
"If you come across anybody who
thinks he can get rich quickly by help
ing himself to our coin," remarked
Superintendent Boyer In pnrtlng,
'just advise :him to think It over care
fully first."
Irr compliance with the sunerln-
tendent's suggestion the advice Is here
by given . .

implacable hatred, often provoked
simply because a man is in attendance

with tuskers to detest their next

of a high Intellectual guide, than all
stories, true or false, that have been

BICYCLE CRIES "STOP THIEF."

An Knglish bicycle "crank" who re
cently had two wheels stolen within
as many weeks comes furwurd with a
novel invention to do away with bi
cycle thieves.
lie would have the wheel as it is be
ing ridden oil by a thief cry out at
every revolution of the treadles:
"Stop thief!"
The young man has affixed a minia
ture phonograph to his bicycle, direct
ly under the saddle. The phonograph
is inclosed in a square box and the ap
paratus only weighs 2 pounds. In
the center of the box is the tinfoil cell
upon which he has recorded the words
"Stop thief!" many times. A wire
connects with the rear wheel of the
bicycle, and with that the apparatus
is complete.
When the young man enters a build
ing he presses a button and his thief
catcher Is set. When the thief jumps
into the saddle and starts to ride away
he is stopped by a voice which shouts
apparently behind blm: "Stop thlcfl
Stop thief!"
The faster he rides the wheel the
louder grows the pursuing voice, un
til flnnlly the thief in disgust vaults
off the wheel and leaves It to Its fate.
A pressure of the button by thp
owner and the mechanism is detached
and the wheel runs smoothly. Tho
young inventor Intends to apply for
a patent as soon as he bos the contriv
