Ad- miral Harmony was recently detached from command of the Asiatic station and on his arrival in this country was placed on tho retired list. Admiral Weaver was born at Wash- )‘,wn city, July 1, 1832, and on May 10, S, he was appointed & midshipman 'rum Ohio. He was graduated from the naval academy in 1854, After the usual routine in various Bhi[ls in the seas where American naval vessels then sailed he entered on very active service at the beginning of the civil war and at its closo was mude commander in recog- nition of his services. He served in turn under KFlag Officers Farragut, Porter, Dupont, Rowan, Stringham, Dahlgren and Goldsborough and in every part of the widely extended field of naval war- fare. He was a lieutenant on board the Sus- quehanna at the bombardment and cap- ture of the forts at Hattoras inlet and av Port Royal, S. C., and commanded the wooden gunboat Chippewa at the first bat- tle of Fort Fisher and the monitor Maho- pac at the last battle and capture of that fort. He was also present in command of this monitor when the forts in front of Charleston were ovacuated by the confederates and taken }osscssion of by the federals. He was ordered at once to the Jumes and arrived in time to take part in tho closing events at Richmond. He participated in many minor engage- ments and was a_licutenant on the Sus. quehanna when the batteries at Sewall's Point, Va., were bombarded. His serviceson fresh water were al- most_equally meritorious. He com- manded the Winona under Farragut on the lower Mississippi and was especially commended by the great admiral for his repulse of the enemy at Donaldsonville, La. He also received warm commenda: tion and was recommended for promo- tion by Admiral Porter. Sinco the civil war he has communded in turn the oted ironclad Terror, the double tur ironclad Dictator and the frigate Brook- lyn. He commanded the Norfolk navy yurd three years and left there last Jan- ary to take the presidency of the naval examining board. Dating from his first appointment, he has boen in the naval service forty-five years and for_tho last twenty-six has had his residenco at Georgetown, D. C. Another View of Indlan Soldiers. ‘““Yes, the Indian makes a good sol- dier,” was the reply of Lieutenant Seay to a reporter who made a query as to the efliciency of his company, which is the Indian company of tho Twenty-first infantry, stationed at Iort Sidney, Neb. Thisis one of the five Indian companies of the Department of the Platte and is given an excellont reputation for soldierly qualities by Mr. Seay. “It is not yet two years,” continued he, *“*since the organization of the com- pany.

Whether they woula prove as tractable if harshly trested I can't say, for | al- ways use them well, tho- result being a desire to excel in drill that in less than two years has made my company the equal in many respects of the majority of white companies formed entirely from the raw material and with the same time of service to their credit. “They are Brule Sioux, a tribe that makes better soldiers than any other, I beliove, because of their long’ ancestry of warriors. They are natural fighters and like nothing better than practising the various evolutions required of them. They learn readily everything almost but arithmetic. A display of the pen- manship of some of my clorks would surprise you. With a very little prac- tice they have acquired a degree of skill really amazing to one unacquainted with their capabilities in this line. “I know it is quite fashionable among army circles and in a less degree in newspapers to say that the Indian makes a poor soldier, that he can't learn the drill or won’t, that he is lazy, shiftless and improvident, but I have found the contrary to be the case. The men in my company are anything but lazy. Their clothing and accoutremonts thoy keep in perfect condition and as for improvi- dence, | may say that they every month send to their homes a considerable por- tion of their earnings. Lieutenant Seay expressed the belief that with propor handling Iidians could be made the most effective frontier troops. A suggestion that they might not take kindly to the idea of golng to battle with their kinsmen brought an emphatic denial from the army officer, who quoted Sitting Bull’s capture and killing by Sioux and the arrest of the Iml ans last winter in Dakota for the fing of a cowboy, He said that ubullu)w to a superior was the first tenet of their belief. Punished for Disrespoct. News comes f{rom Norfolk, Va., which, being corroborated by offi- cial orders promulgated under the directions of the secretary of the navy, caunot be doubted, and which exhibits the patriotic spirit inculcated in the United Siates navy in regard to show- ing the proper respect to our flag. B e ow s Joseph Hooper, master-at-arms of the United States eruiser Charleston, has been disrated, court-martialed and ais- honorably discharged from the naval service of the United States for disre- spect to the American flag, While the Charleston was at the Nor- folk Navy yard undergoing repairs, Lieutenant Fields, the executive officer, ordered the gun crews to clean and lubricate their guns, One of the quar- ter gunners being without cleaning gear went to the master-at-arms for some, and bringing out the *‘lucky bag” the master-at-arms gave the quarter gunner an old obsolete American flag, which, in some mysterious way, had been gathered in "V “jlum‘{ legs.” ‘With “Old Glory” the gunner was making ‘great progress at his work. Lieutenant Fields was on deck and as he kept his eye searching about the deck some shirking blue jacket his inquiring glunces were arrested by some attraction at one of the guns. Walking over to the gunner the executive in- quired when and how he came into pos- session of the national ensign, and did he wot know better than to put the un- blemished starry flag o such use. The quarter-gunner, trembling from head to foot, told in' faltering speech how he had procuted the Nag. Hoopor, the master-at-arms, was summoned to the mast and with the ship’s company at muster was disrated in disgrace Charges wore proferred against him and he was transferred to another vessel where he was court martialed and sentenced to dishonorable dischargo. Hooper had made a cruise on the Iroquois as a fireman and had served an enlist in Company C of the First United States infantry under the name of Mitchell. The Soldier's Life.

Tours of detached sorvice are simply picnics, and no man would stay in a gar- rison if he had halt a chance to get out and off over the prairie for detached service of any kind. Wae catch all sorts of material for soldiers—the beer drink- ing Teuton, the bull dog Englishman, the fun loving Irishman and, in fact, all nationalitios and all climes.

Inour service the training of a soldier to be a fine shot is the principal object, while, as a rule, most European armies neglect this important adjunct of a military man's career, depending moro on numbers and volley firing than on individual skill. As for the commis- sioned officer, he is as hard worked as the private soldier. I know the general impression is that the commissioned branch have a good, easy time of it, with nothing to do but play cards and draw their pay. Asa matter of fuct, more than nine-tenths of the oflicers in the army today fairly earn every cent of their pay, and more, t00. There is one drill practicdd by a cavalvy troop which is not ‘only useful and instructive but also decidedly in- teresting to witness. Out on the prairie have been orected numerous posts the height of an ordinary man from his feet up to the shouiders. A number of large leathern balls the size of a man’s head and filled with straw are placed on the posts before drill commences. Now the troopers are hauled up in line and each individual is set to work cut- ting off the various leathern heads from the posts. ‘When aman’s turn comes to draw his saber, the command is given and away he goes at_a mad dash down upon the enemy, cutting off the first head with a down stroke, and the next one with a back sweep, and the third is slashed on the crown or decapitated in some way. Thedrill also includes fir- ing blank charges with arevolver at the heads. ey A MODEL MANAGER. Storles fllustrating the Kindness of a La- mented Raitroad Man. Since the death of W. S. Mellen, late general manager of the Northern Pacitic rcad, his friends are exchanging re- miniscences illustrative of his ability as an official and of his largeness of heart and kindness of disposition as a man. One of the most conspicuous traits in | Mr. Mellen’s character, says the Chicago Post, was _his sympathy fyr those in subordinate positions, his readi- ness to listen to their complaints and to make o personal investigation, as well as to afford redress wherever he found there were just grounds for dissatisfac- tion with their circumstances. With many of the employes of the road, eveni with those holding menial positions, he was personally acquainted, and tool a kindly interest in their welfare. At the samo he exacted from them all faithful service for the road and none of them could hope to escapo the con- sequences of duty neglected on account of his personal intimacy with the general manager. He was not in the habit of standing on ceremony with this class, The door of his office was usually open for those who had complainis to make or favors to ask, and none could ever say that he did not listen pationtl to the one or grant the other where {I, could be done without detriment to the service. Indeed, he seemed to take a particular delight in doing kind things to those under him, but he always did them in sucha quiet, unostentatious way that none but the actual recipient of the favor ever knew that it bad been conferred, On one occasion & switchman in the yards at St. Paul had a very sick wife and had no one to attend to her wants while she was ill. There was a rush of business at the time and a dearth of com- petent hands. The switchman re- ferred to applied * for leave of absence for a few days that he might nurse his wife, but was peremptorily refused by the yardmaster, who curtly informed him that if he absented him- self from work he would be discharged and another engaged in his stead. That very night the man’s wife had a serious relapse, and when the next morning a rived itdid not appear that she would survive through the day. ‘The man could not leave her. An hour or two passed after the time he should nave reported for work, and then & mes- sage arrived from the yardmaster order- ing him to report imuediately for duty, and renewing the threat that if he did not instant diemissal would follow. The man refused to leave his suffering wife. He stayed by her until he had nursed her through the crisis and back to where she was able to attend to herself again. Then he reported at the yards, but was told that his place had been filled and that there was no vacaney for him, Having heard of the general manager's sympathy for the sutfering he betook himsell to Mr. Mellen’s office and asked for an inter- view. “The general manager is very bus, and cannot be disturbed,” said the pri- vate secretary of whom the request was made. “'Well, seeing I am not in much of a hurry mynulf today,” replied the dis- charged man, “I believe I will wait till he is at leisure.” *'What is the nature of your business? Is there no one olu who could attend toit?" *No, I believe not.
