ky FETNCE SWORE ATRISENET Mow President Promotes Col. Suoceed Gen. Ludington. FRIENDS WERE DOUBTFUL. 4 Incident Occurred at Siboney, Where the Rough Rider Wanted Supplies » for His Men that Humphrey Was Unable to Furnish. President Roosevelt has appointed Col, Charles F. Humphrey to be Quar- termaster-General of the Army to suc- @eed = Brig.-Gen. Ludington, retired, and in so doing has earned the com- mendation of many army officers who thought he would never do it, -Col, Humphrey once used tart lan- @uage.to the President when the latter ‘was Lieutenant-Colonel of the Roush Riders, He “cussed him out” so vig- Qrously at Siboney one day when the Rough Rider was raising Cain about what he considered the neglect of his Fegiment that the whole army before Bantiago sot to talking about it, There fave been many who thought the Preal- dent would remember the incident when it came time to choose Gen, Luding- ton's successor, ; Col. Humphrey, then a brigadier in the volunteer army, outranking Lieut.- Col. Roosevelt, was Quartermaster-Ge Neral of the Santingo expedition. He Was a busy man at Siboney, and there Was no limit to the demands made on him. He was doing the best he could fahder the circumstances, when Lieut.- Col. Roosevelt went at him rough-shod and demanded a lot of things he could not have had he been Gen. Shafter or @ven the President of the United States at that time. Gen, Humphrey “Cusved” Him, He was 50 strenuous in his demands that the bile of Gen, Humphrey rose and overwhelmed the Rough Rider, The Quartermaster-General ordered him from the pler where the colloquy was ‘taking place and conelgned him to @ ce that is popularly supposed to be tter than even Santiago de Cuba in ., duly. The Rough Rider went, but there fwas fire in his eye and his big teeth ‘were visible from the top of the bluffs back of the landing place. Gen. Humphrey later was mustered @ut of the volunteer service and became @nce more a Lfeutenant-Colonel of the [eta in the regular army. © Lieut.-Col. Roosevelt became successively Colonel Of this regiment, Governor of New York, Wice-President and then, by the fate of *@eath, President of the United States. + Lieut.-Col. Humphrey eventually was ‘made a Colonel end was sent with Gen. feo's expedition to the relief of Peking. Later he was made Chief ‘Quartermaster at Maniia, where he (Row Is.

His neigh- ‘bor was greatly startled. All of which gave the chalk-faced disturber of the Peace immense gratification. ‘The lady on the trapeze looked bored. To relieve her ennui she hung by one foot and gazed languldly downward though looking for something more to her liking. When she soared back ‘home’ she found her companion there wiping her hands on the first handkerchief of the season. “As I was saying," she resumed, fastening a loosened rose in her hair, “t's remarkable how much a horse will do for nothing and how well he will do it. I suppose the poor, abused elephants are entitled to most sympathy, judging by the way they’ve just been trumpet- ing, but somehow my heart always goes; ‘out to the horses.”’ Hoop-La Business Is Cut Out, “I wish I was a rider instead of a trapeze performer,” selfishly remarked the slender one. “They're always ad- mired the most.
