There is a strong tinge of romance In the case of Second Lieutenant Chas. E. Lang, seccnd artillery, now undergoing ex- amination by an army retiring board at Governor's Island, This is the second time he has applied for retirement. His first application was made a few months after his graduation at the Military Academy, In June, 184. His request was granted and he was duly examined. The board report- ed Lim perfectly able to do active duty, an he was ordered to join his regiment. Last fall he was granted six months’ leave of absence, at the expiration of which time he again applied for retirement. ‘The pres- ent examination is to determine the nature and extent of the supposed physical disa- bilities which make him incapable of ac- tive service. icut. Lang's desire to get out of active ice Is said to be mainly due to a per ent social boycott, to which he 1s said ve been subjected ever since his mar- riage to the daughter of an enlisted maa just after his graduation. Result of a Romantic Marriage. “The persistent efforts of young Lang to get on the retired list,” says an inti friend, who knew him as a cadet at Wi Point, the result of his romantic m rege to the daughter of an enlisted man. He has sacrificed a promising career in the army, and has estranged himself from the ties of comradeship so characteristic of and navy life. La s one of the it men in his ¢lass at West Point. He graduated among the first ten men. During his last year at the ac: demy he met Miss Mamie Kink aughter of Commi y Sergeant . Lang is a e Catholic.

Since that day Lang and bis wife have been socially ostracised. Lang's best man was Hospital Steward Lally. Lal A few weeks after the marriage was dismissed from the army. His ischarge was attributed by his friends to the part he took in the Lang affair. Ser- geant Kinkle then found it agreeable to Ieave West Point. He wanted to get sta-~ ticned in the east, so as to be near Mre. Lang, who is his ‘only child, but he was sent to Texas. “When Lang got back to Fort Warren again after the nham experience, it was painfully apparent that Mrs. Lang's exist- ence would not be pleasant. It is this anxiety to begin life in a sphere where Mrs. Lang will not be constantly reminded that she is the daughter of a private that has cused Lang to seek retiremen ee GETTING SETTLED. House & Herrmann Are Doing Busi- ness in Their v Building. “All done but some finishing touches,” is what Mr. Herrmann of the furniture firm of House & Herrmann told a Star reporter this morning, when he entered the hand- some new building which this enterprising firm has just erected at the northeast cor- ner of 7th and I streets. “You see we are In our new home, and business ts running along very smoothl. But we are not quite ready yet for our formal opening. We don’t want to announce that until every- thing is absolutely finished. “It wasn’t much of a job for us to move. We simply put our account beoks under our rms and walked out of the old quarters. Not a doilar’s worth of stock was transferred. What wasn't disposed of in our ‘removal sale’ will be sold a little later at auction.” Mr. Herrmann is very proud of the new building, which is one of the best appointed for this business that brains and money could devise. Every modern improvemert that helps to make shopping easy has been introduced. ‘Two fast elevators bring the basement and the top floor within a few seconds’ ride of each other. Thousands of square feet of glass let In the flood of sun- light, and hundreds of electric lamps turn darkness into day. Their stock will include everything to furnish a home, and everything required to keep heme with. = ——_ __. National Fencibles’ Fatr.

KING CHRISTIAN. Denmatt's Monarch aPeretType of a Danish Gentleman, One of the Handsomest of the Crov-ned Heads of Europe Writes of the Merits of a Great Discovery. However true it may be with re- gard to the Czar of all the Russias that “Uneasy rests the head that wears a crown,” the same certainly cannot be said of King Christian of Denmark. His throne is not alone in the halls of the imperial palace, but likewise in the hearts of his people, and so firmly are its foundations set that there is not the slightest fear either for his own person or for the salvation of his kingdom. Well balanced in mind, of fine and commanding physique, with fine ed- ucation and advanced ideas on all great problems of the day and gen- eration, international as well as na- tional, he is the idol of his people, a good Christian, a good sound and liberal ruler and a perfect man, men- tally, morally and physically. Like other crowned heads of Eu- rope, King Christian has had re- course to the Genuine JOHANN HOFF’S MALT EXTRACT, and he says of it: “I have noticed the beneficial action of JOHANN NMOFFS MALT EXTRACT on myself, as well as on others of my household, and am pleased to ac- knowledge this.

High School pupils are taking great in- terest in the contest for the $i Sterling bieycle which Mr. James F. Oyster has of- fered to the one among them who sccures the largest number of orders for fve-pound boxes of his famous creamery butter be- fere May 1, 1898. Mr. Oyster adopted this novel feature with a double purpose in view—to better familiarize the public with the unvarying excellence of his creamery butter, and to give the High School pupils an opportunisy tn. develop that business ebility which wil stand them to such gocd purpose in futrre life.

A Watchman at Wakefield. Col. Wilscn has asked Congress to au thorize the employment of a watchman, at $50 a month, to guard the monument to mark the birthplace of Washington at Wakefield, Va. He regards this as neces- sary in order to protect the shaft from de- ement by relic hunters. Years ago Mr. G. W. P. Custis placed a iarge marble slab at Wakefield. It was gradually chip- ped to pieces by visitors, and carried away, until now not a vestige of It remains, Frazments of the stone were peddied in distant cities as relics of Washington. It is the belief of Col. Wilson and others that unless proper protection is given the na- tional monument about to be erected at Wakefield it will in time suffer the fate of the Custis memorial stone and disappear from the face of the earth.
