"While There Is an Abundance Good Men, the Best Came From the West. of GIRLS AND THE CAR SEAT. How Chief Wilkle Played Sherlock Holmes to Perfection. Saturday Evening Post. A short time ago a visitor from a West ern State entered the office of John E. Wilkle, chief of the secret service division of ttie United States Treasury Depart ment bearing a letter of Introduction lrom a common4 friend. H was accompanied by his daughter, a remarkably pretty girl. The girl had a bad bruise on her cheek near the corner of the right eye, and the visitor said smilingly, as they were leav ing; "I didn't strike my daughter; she got that bruise In another way." The chief leaned back In his chair, hold ing his brier pipe in his hand, and looked thoughtful for a moment "I think "I can tell you how it hap pened," he said. "On the morning of the day before yesterday sh'e was sitting on the side of her berth in the sleeper from Indianapolis. She leaned over to lace her shoe, the car lurched, and she fell across the aisle, striking her head on the arm of the opposite seat" The visitor was astonished. "Were you on the train?" he asked. "No." replied the chief, "but I reason In this way: Personal violence In the case oi this young lady Is out of the question. Painful accidents sometimes occur from WASHINGTON, June- 1. Never have i troops been raised more satisfactorily j than have the 10 new infantry and cav alry regiments tnat are Deing organized under the Army reorganization law. There has been an abundance of men, and men of the highest type. It is true the spirit of patriotism manifested in the days of the Spanish war baa somewhat abated, but the men who are enlisting are as sincere in their loyalty to the Govern ment and as ready to render good service as were those who took up. arms against Spain. In speaking of the recruiting 0f the new regiments, Colonel Johnson, ot the Adjutant-General's office, who has general supervision of this branch of the service, said: "Five-sixths of tho new Infantry regi ments are already recruited, but slower progress has been made with the cavalry, because of the additional requirements for men of that branch of the service. But we arc getting an exceptionally efficient set of men for all branches of th ser vice, and by the first of July expect to have all 10 of these regiments recruited to their full strength. "We are particularly gratilled at the class of men we are enlisting in the West The best men of the service, as a rule, come from that great country beyond the Mississippi. At the present time we are i accepting on an average of one man out of every four that applies In the West. That may seem like a small percentage, but It Is not In New York we are taking but one man out of every 10. Philadel phia ranks next There we take one from nine, and when you get as far west as Chicago we get one out of every live. But, as I said before, the best men and the most of them are to be had from the West. "By going ahead slowly and picking our men we are able to weed out the undesi rable element There is no crying need for numbers at this time, and this fact in Itself serves to Insure a better service. colliding with the edge of an open door In the dark, but In that case the bruise would , The men we are getting now In the reg- most likely have been on some prominent feature, like the temple, the cheek bone i or the nose, and not In the slight depres sion near the eye. You have been on the sleeper two days, for you told me so early in your conversation here. The bruise is not a very fresh one, so it seemed al most certain that the accident occurred from a fall on the train, as much as, and not more than, 48 hours ago. My reasoning Is quite simple, you see." Both visitors expressed their amazement and took their leave. The father then went to the office of one of the higher of ficials of the Treasury Department, and In a straightforward way explained that he had called to express his appreciation of the chief of the secret service. "I have just come from his office," he said, "and In my short Interview I was convinced that he is the best man who ever occupied the place." The official spoke about the matter to Mr. Wilkle the next day. and the chief told of the visit and of the supposed de tective incident. "But it wasn't a clever thing at all," said he, "and I must write a letter to that man. I didn't think It was going to make such a fuss. Some friends of my family camo from Indiana two or three days ago, and I heard them up at the house talking about a pretty girl on the sleeper from Indianapolis who fell across the aisle from her berth while dressing and bruised her face. When that man brought his daugh ter into the office- and told where they came from, it Just popped into my head that here was the girl my friends had been talking about" ular Army are the true volunteers. Peo ple generally do not stop to think that the 'regular Army man Is the true volunteer, but that Is the fact. He has the world (before him. He casts about and makes his selection. The military possesses the greater attraction for him. Once his mind Is made up he voluntarily offers his ser vices to the Government, without Influence and without inducement. "In this connection, In justice to the regular Army men, It should be said that the general opinion that the class of men in the regular service are Inferior to what are popularly known as 'volunteers' Is Incorrect. The regulars, in point of fact, have been shown to be superior men in every way,4 taken as a class. During war times, when there was a hurry call for men, many militia companies were mustered Into the service, practically as they stood prior to enlistment in the ser vice of the United States. In that way we took In many men who would not be recruited now, and who could not gain ad mission to the ranks of the regular Army. In many Instances mllltla officers, desir ing to retain their respective commis sions, Induced, threatened and bulldozed many members of their companies to en list, threatening them in one way and another, and making them believe that to withdraw meant to call down on them selves the brand of coward. Of course, no man will be called a 'coward, and there are many cases where private soldiers en listed for the sole and only purpose of avoiding such a reputation. It was to the Interest of these militia officers to have HMBilHHHHHHHI full commands and at an early day, and they did not care what class of men they enlisted, so their number was sufficient. So, I say, the popularly-called 'volunteers' regiments were made up, in most in stances, of a poorer class of men than those in the regular service. "At Vancouver Barracks, Wash., and at Fort Meade, S. D., enlistments have been comparatively slow, but this is largely due to the fact that these posts are in northerly latitudes. From now on there is every reason to believe that those regi ments will be fecrulted to their full strength in time for the final organiza tion. In Colorado, for example, we have had exceptionally good- luck, both -in se curing plenty of men and men of high standing. Through the recruiting offices ac Tfcnver, Pueblo, Cripple Creek, La Junta, Trinidad' and Sante Fe, men have been pouring In. "At each station the applicants are not only examined as to their physical quali fications, but each man must give proof of his ability to read and write, must have proof of his good moral character, and bear some recommendation from his last employer. When a man meets the requirements he is a pretty good man, and we can keep out the scum that is often times believed to find Its way into the service. We require not only the state ments of the man himself, but a corrobo ration from some other Individual. "One of the great obstacles which has interfered with the organization of these new regimenjts has been the scarcity of officers. We will soon be able to draw on the newly appointed men, many of whom have been examined and have been found to qualify. Moreover, officers from some of the retutnlng regiments are to be re assigned, and in addition to these officers who are in the Philippines and have been assigned to the new regiments are to be called home and stationed with their com mands. Instead of organizing the troops and sendtner them to the officers, as was at first Intended. Up to this time we have had but few officers available, and this fact has made it necessary to go slow in recruiting men. From now on we ex pect to have pretty near the full accom paniment of officers at each point where troops are being concentrated. "There is. . every reason why the new regiments should make the best soldiers in the service. The American Is the best soldiers In the service. The American Is the best soldier In the world, particularly as a fighter, and when you consider that we are exercising the utmost care to se cure the best Americans, ou must ap preciate that the new regiments will be the equal or any in the world. That is what we intend they shall be and hope to see our expectations fulfilled." P&imh flfee&flpy5 Everybody knows that Mer cury is a danger ous medicine even -when administered in very small doses, and few constitutions can stand it for any length of time. Potash produces inflammation of the stomach and bowels, and a dangerous form of dyspepsia and often chronic diarrhoea follow its use. Now. the doctors will tell vou if you have Contagious Blood. Poison you must take these minerals for two years or longer; first, a course of Mercury, and when your teeth get so sensitive and eore that you can't eat, and the gums hae a spongy, unnatural appearance, you are told to stop and a change to-Potash is made. When the stomach rebels you are put on Mercury again, and so pn ad infinitum, or until the system becomes so thoroughly saturated with these poisonous drugs that the most disgusting sores break out on the body, the bones become diseased, and the muscles and joints are racked with the most torturing pains. Mercury and Potash drive the eruptions and blotches from the skin, but the virus remains in the blood and the reappearance of the old symptoms and the occasional sore mouth show that the poison is still active, and you can never hope to completely eradicate it by this method of treatment. . , S.

Professor Arlo Bates In the Forum The Intellectual standards of any civil ized land are obviously the, measures of lis permanent advance. They are established not by the many, but by the few; and the few, the leaders of the higher thought, have a right to claim from a unl- , versity its best support and co-operation. I The university which simply fits men for ' utilitarian ends Is false to its best uses; and still more is it unworthy if it instill or foster material or degraded views of life. The university has a duty to the nation which is not less than that which it owes to the individual student. Pei sonally, I find it impossible not to feel that the prominence given at American univer sities and schools to athletics is a men ace to their Influence for good to the pub lic or to students. The Intellectual Ideal may not have been abandoned or de graded; It most certainly has been ob scured. The effect upon the universities which has been brought about by modern ath letics Is more grave, because more far reaching than any. Immediate effect upon" i Individuals. Tho well-being of the student is a serious matter, but it is, after all, of less real consequence than any vital de terioration In the character of institu tions of learning. One cause cannot be en tirely disentangled from another In con sidering the modifications which como about in complicated modern social con ditions; but it Is not impossible to dis tinguish at least the tendency of the present exaltation of sport. Social prom inence In colleges today Is so largely de pendent upon physical prowess that what ever power scholarship should have In this direction has been much discredited. The institutions which are nominally the conservators of the Intellectual Ideals of the nation introduce students Into a so- J clety where intellectual distinctions have j sunk Into a secondary' place. Instead of being four years in an atmosphere of learning and or mind, the youth Is during his college courte constantly impressed through his surroundings with the Idea that success Is to be won rather by the body than by the mind; that popularity Is of more effect than culture; and that learning may bo disregarded for more showy and ephemeral accomplishments. Fine Words and Shabby Deeds. Chicago Tribune. The Rev. Mr. Brown made some sweetly pretty remarks at the wedding of Profes sor Herron and Miss Rand. He told them that "there Is no yesterday and no tomor row in the married harmony and the joy ous rhythm of two such souls" as theirs; that "we are here today to announce to the world tho oneness of two human souls In a love that reflects and reproduces and manifests somewhat of the essence of that infinite love which sways and ani mates the universe"; and that the discov ery of this oneness is "the discovery of life the laying bare the very soul of the cosmos." These arc fine-sounding sentences, though a little obscure In pl'ces. Many good people will not have the least Idea what the "soul of the cosmos" Is, and perhaps the Rev. Mr. Brown will find it difficult to describe It with scientific accu racy. These fine words about "a recipro cal love" which "unites soul to soul by a sanction In presence of which all human enactments seem profane and Imperti nent," cannot conceal some of the com- HHMHHHHMHI mercial, repellant features of this par ticular union of souls. Professor Herron, founder of the "New Social Apostolate." had a wife, the love of his jouth, who bore him four children, still living. That wife got a divorce from him on the ground of desertion and was given the custody of the children. Sho was .paid a large sum, perhaps $60,000. to Induce her to bring this suit The. money paid to buy the freedom of the profes sor was not paid by him. The woman he has just married is herself wealthy and has a rich mother, who approves ot tho match. The professor can sing with Da vid, "The lines are fallen unto me In pleasant places; jea, I have a goodly heritage." A father who allows himself to bo bought away from his children cannot have In his breast even a small drop of "the essence of that Infinite love which sways and animates the universe." Rous seau left his children at foundlings' homes. Professor Herron cheerfully puts his out of his life. Evidently "social apos tles" whose mission it Is to love human ity and enjoy the "soul of the cosmos" cannot be tied down to the common, plain duties of life. He who can appreciate the ''joyous rhythm of souls" cannot be expected to bother with hfs children or with their mother, whom he took "for better, for worse." These vows bind the "social apostle" only until some richer woman comes along who wants him. and has the cash to get him. The Language of Presents. George 'What's wrong?
