to Join in some festivity,
but Sergeant Treadwell and myself
lireferred to stay at home to enjoy a
(inlet game of chess. We sat up till
late awaiting our friends' return,
and towards midnight they slipped
slyly past the guard and came piling
in on top of us. They had been
drinking and were Just pi lined for
fun. Sergeant lingers threw the
orderly's cap on the chess board,
which the two players held on their
knees, while Sergeant Faik raised
his foot tlii his toe nearly touched
the board, and cautioned the com
pany with mock solemnity not to
molest it. While they were tor
mentlng us .leinmle Van Itciithuy
sen, asleep in an upper bunk, was
awakened by the noise and peered
over the Hide to see what was going
on. Ills movement attracted the
orderly (Sergeant Mather) and he
made a sudden pounce for the tllt

I laving fallen tiMiit t liese evil days
of fratricidal strife, it Is not always
necessary to lie dolorous and sat
urnine. It is said that when France
was occupied by the allies, and their
advancing unities were couccntrat
liigarouud Paris, the gay Parisleiines
thronged the boulevards, dnscd in
their gayest appaiol and with their
vivacious airs vanquished (lie
nation's eoiiijuerors. Jly the saute
token we jutt riot soldiers can liave
merry intervals, although eiieom
passed with grlui-vlsaged war. In
the early part of the winter, when
wo were yet living in tents, one
stormy Sunday afternoon, the
monotony of our situation was re
Uoved by the verformauc of two
num who had been liulilblng ratlter
freely. To guard again-t the
driving rain, wo had tied and pin
ned and In other ways fastened, our
tent Haps. Tlio chief amusement of
this pair of revelers was to go
through a tent, as they termed It.
We lay listening to their riotous
doings for upwards of an hour, fully
expecting our tent would Ui tuvxt

adjoining (ptartetx, a llnleal sort of
gentleman, Private Henry Wllwni,
who could not War to have his
hlaiikotH touched, his tent entered,
or anything that was his desecrated.
He hud provided himself with a
stoVe, uud hud Ihhu synipjitiilrlng
with us (Ironically) as we lay lu our
wet, cold tout. Suddenly we heard
a great nul(K, a crash, loud voktvt

way, knocking the table over and
extlniruisliliiir the candle. All was
darkness, smoke and confusion in an
instant. I threw myself back on
my bed and screaming with delight,
vociferated, "It don't make any
diUercnce." I ought to have died
then; such moments of supreme de
light are rarely vouchsafed to man.
It Is related that in early CSreek days
an aged Athenian hapjienlng to pass
a sleeping lad, saw his assenting figs
from a basket. He stood aid
watched the animal tinlsh his repast
and then, waking the Uiy, he bade
him letch the ass some water. The
old man was so tickled with his own
dry humor that lie laughed till he
died of convulsions. 1 can now envy
(lie old mail his death. Our hovel
was Instantly tilled with a dense
volume of smoke which drove us all
out to get breath. Several wished
to enter and sweep out the burning
embers, lest our house and contents
should be destroyed. Itut I held
fast to the closed door, and almost
hysterical with delight, admired
them that it didn't make any dif
ference. Hy some means tlioy got
me round to the cook house and our
teiitmate, A lux Swlntoii, (who was
on guard) threw the stove out of
doors, extinguished die coals and
carried them out and put the house
In order again.
Tin; Spokane Herald relates it as
an astonishing fact that none but
old men am seen coming out of the
SMikaiie pustotllce. They enter the
building in the vigor of life, but by
the time they reach the stamp win
dow their hair has turned white
with' age. The attention of the
postmaster general will I hi called to
this fact.
The investigation going on Into
the imiKirtatioii of paupers, lunatic
and convicts from Europe, has dt
veloped the fact thatduriiigtlieyear
tlie Jiritlhh government had sent
7500 of these kinds. It is liritish
retaliation. Every year there go
from the United States several
thousands of the sons mid (laughters
of the very rich tlie sons to splurge
and tlie daughters to sell themselves

squander a yearly aggregate of a
million or more. John Hull's lire -
cess of retaliation Is to send as many
or more of his paupers, lunatics and
