Bow Ncty Amalrwt Rank Wat Vmt M Avmxe a rutj unult Notwithstanding tho fact that th officers of the American army are the yery pink of conrtos;-, they sometimes, in post and garrison life, have very un pleasant social experiences, says the Outlook. An officer In a garrison Is as iipicd quarters, not according to the necessities of hia family, hut In ac cordance with hia rank. It therefore comes about quite frequently, when a new officer is sent to a post, that there arc many changes of quarters so as to mr.!;c room for him. When a new ma jor arrives, for instance, he selects the quarters that suit him best, it matters not who occupies them, provided the occupant is below him in rank. He can turn out a major lower on the list or any captain or lieutenant, and each of these when dispossessed can choose for himself what quarters suit him best If occupied by an inferior in rank. One move, therefore, may make a dozen others. The women of the army, it is said, are greater sticklers for these rights than the men. But the men themselves, while preserving all the forms of highest courtesy, sometimes push their authority to its fulleat limits. For instance, at a two-company post in the west some years ago, a captain of infantry was in command, as his commission was of older date than that of the captain of cavalry also there. These two captains were mutually antipathic In their official intercourse all the forms were ob served, but still it was plain to all that they cordiallr disliked each other. One day the senior captain ordered the junior to take a file of men to the forest and cat the firewood needed for the winter! This duty ordinarily would have been given to a sergeant or corporal. The cavalry captain had no recourse and waa obliged to obey. Just as he got outside the post the mail, which came only now and then at intervals of a week or so, arrived, and the cavalryman stopped for his letters. One of these brought him his commis sion as major. He ut once issued an order taking command of the post, and another order assigning the wood-chopping duty to the late commandant WHERE WAS EDEN LOCATED? ehalars of Distinction Do Not Agroo sad tha Myiteir Bcmalas Unwind. The location of the earthly paradise, or Garden of Eden, is still a matter of dispute among orientalists and Scrip tural scholars of highest reputation, says the St Louis Republic. Some have endeavored to locate it by the fruits and mineral productions named in the Biblical descriptions as they ap pear in the second chapter of Genesis; others by the rivers mentioned in verses eleven to fourteen of the above men tioned chapter. The weight of inves tigation and tradition incline to an agreement that the Tigris and the Euphrates of modern geography are the third and fourth rivers mentioned in the Biblical description of the gar den. Those who agree so far differ widely aB to what rivers should now ba regarded as the ancient Pison and Gihon. The Buddhistic scholars, al though they reject our Bible in the greater part, incline to the opinion that the Pison is the sacred Gangesand that the Gihon is none other than tha Nile. As to the last it is altogther probable that they are correct on that point because the Biblical account plainly sayB that Gihon "compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia." Home in vestigations affirm that Eden was a spot of comparatively small area located on the table lands of what is now Armenia, from which rise the Tigris and the Euphrates. A few scholars of distinc tion argue that the Adamic paradise was located in Africa, in the vicinity of the Mountains of the Moon. Still another school of orientalists locate the celebrated garden in the vicinity of the ancient city of Babylon. None of these theorists have been able to get the four rivers mentioned in the Biblical account properly lo cated; neither have they found a place where one great river "separates into four heads." This being the case it is hardly necessary to add that the ex act location of Eden is a mystery that will probably never be solved. ABOUT PEQPLE, Fuld-Mabshai. Sib Patrick Gxant Is now ninety years old. He entered the military service of the East India company in 1820. Tni Choctaw valedictorian of Roan oke college, Vs., in 1993, Solomon Jones Homer, of Bennington, I. T., has en tered the Harvard law school. Ik spite of his eighty-five years, Dr, Oliver Wendell Holmes was accustomed. to walk at Beverly a mile every morn' ing and to drive a dozen miles every afternoon. Tm discussion as to how many war governors are still living is revived by the deaths of ex-Govs. Austin Blair, of Michigan; Kirkwood, of Iowa, and Curtin, of Pennsylvania. The list seems to be now reduced to Sprague, of Rhode Island; Salomon, of Wisconsin, and Saunders, of Nebraska. Fifty years have now elapsed since Herr Johann Strauss, then a lad of nineteen, made hia first bow as a cou ductor at Vienna, and his friends have been celebrating the anniversary with great enthusiasm.
