McElheney, white, 21 years; Bernard Crosgrove, white, 27 years; ‘Wm. K. Dick, white, 21 years; Mary Jane Cook, WAS HE DRUNK? An Army me in a Very Peculiar Secretary Endicott is at Present engaged in the consideration of a question of military ethics that is interesting all the army officers who are aware of its existence. It is a delicate question, involving the bonor and veracity of two officers, one of whom must be right only at the moral expense of the other. The story is not widely known, but a Stan reporter learned the other day that the case is as fol- lows: In a certain artillery regiment stationed in the division of the Atlantic there is a cap- tain who has a taste for strong drink. He in- dulges, or in view of the recent he indulged to such an extent that the colonel commanding the —— artillery came to the conclusion that Captain Blank was injuring the morals both of himself and the regiment. With a kindly motive he admonished cap- tain of the evil of his ways with such convinc- ing logic that the subordinate was melted into repentance and promised to reform. To clinch the ee ee oe ee = the latter wrote his resignation from iy and itin the hands of the com- mending with the understanding that at the first ‘breach of the cay frain from intoxication be immediately mailed to War. THR RESIGNATION. It would seem that for o time all went well, and the officers of —— began to congratulate peep dan oe Blank was saved, but not the Secretary of War received through th riko’ ma mails the formal resignation of Capt. from further service in the army = ~e United States. The routine of current a delay in the action upon the Pecguation, and the next day the Secretary formed by saree Blank that his ohare tion was wee prematarel Presented, that it was not sent good faith aps he finally asked permission to withdraw it, Something in the here of the case caused the Secretary tate, and he advised Capt. Blank that he ae hold the matter under consideration, but that he could not allow the resignation to be withdrawn amt he had fully acquainted himself with the facts of the case, and perhaps not then, The colonel next put in his appearance and the Secretary was enlightened as to the cause of the ——— of Capt. Blank. After some research Secretary discovered that the question to be settled was whether yt. Blank was intoxicated or not. The colonel averred that the captain had strayed from the paths of righteousness, and thet’ he had merely per- formed his part of the contract b; the item tothe Secretary, ashe d. other hand, the captain disclaimed that he had yielded to temptation, and that the col- onel must have been under an hallucination when he mailed the document. Thus itis that the Secre' finds himself confronted with the difficult of decidi: between the veracity and honor of a colon and a captain, both of whom present claims for credence. If the colonel’s word the ca tain with it, but if the captain is lieved he stays inthe army—mayi there probably be a coolness in the — artillery. It is thought that the Secretary, nding the p prob- lem a difficult one to solve, is quietly investi- gating the case, and meanwhile Capt. Blank’s ‘tion hangs fire. 's pledge to re- e document was to the Becretary of cco! APR A Crank at the White House. HE CLAIMS THAT RE WAS ELECTED PRESIDENT BY THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR AMD THE INDEPENDENTS. Shortly before noon to-day « strange man opened the vestibule doors of the White House | and entered the lobby. He was of medium height, and dressed in the regulation old soldier garb, his right sleeve being pinned to his breast empty. Sergeant Johnson, one of the ushers, saw him approaching and immediately recog. nized in him the appearance of a * Accosting the visitor usher asked: ware re you s Grand Army maa, sir?” am not!” was the Prompt reply. “I am ‘the newly-elected President.” “What is your name?” asked the usher. “My nate is Hoover, and I was elected by the Knigits of Labor and the independents.” “When are you foing, to be inaugurated?” queried the inquisitive usher. “On the 4th of March, of course,” was the rather impatient reply. “Who will swear you in?” persisted the ques- tioner. “Who else would ar me in but the chief justice of the Supreme Court?” the new Presi- dent asked in turn. “But [have been told that Mr. Harrison was elected President. How about that?” “That is all bosh! I was elected President and I'am going to come here on the 4th of March.” He pe w confidential and told the a that a@room about @ square from the capitol, on the Avenue, and bought his own food and did his own cooking. In a diplomatic manner the usher persuaded him to accompany one of the policemen sta- tioned in the grounds down the Picea and he was led to the first precinct station-house, where he was turned over to the care of Lieut.

There is a widespread superstition, cherished by the great majority of the people, that to sleep immediately after they have taken food is to endanger health, to favor the onset of apoplexy, &c.—a superstition based on the as- sumption that during sleep the brain is nor- mally congested. There is, no doubt, such e thing as congestive sleep, but during normal sleep the brain is anemic. When a — _ taken « fairly abundant lunch stomach demands a — influx of t blood | wherewith to accomplis! no organ can more easily comply with that de- mand than the brain, which, when in full ac- tivity, is suffused with a eae amount of the vital fluid. But derivation of blood from the brain to the stomach can only take place, except in exceptionally full-l blooded and i ‘ous persons, on the condition that the cere! functions be meanwhile partially or spr fe — Hence many people taki its work of digestion; — gt _ for — i = afew jor slee e iy partially anemic pe would fain yi yield yj tote stom- ach a still further supply of blood and yield itself up to refreshing sleep.

Recently Mr. Troutbeck, the coroner for Westminster, was about to hold an inquest at the St, James vestry hall, Piccadilly, when a gentleman practicing as an accountant in | Regent street claimed exemption from serving on the jury on the ground that he was sixty- seven years of age anda little deaf.
