One afternoon, when I was officer of the day and, having attended to my duties, was lying down in my tent reading a book, an orderly reported that there was a man in the custody of the provost marshal whorefused to give his name. Putting aside my book, I denned my uniform and sash and proceeded to the guardhouse.

‘There, in the midst of es tough a looking gang as one ever saw, stood a well dressed, distinguished looking gen- tleman. When I asked him why he was

under arrest because he had refused to give his name or to register with the provost marshal. When I politely re- auested him to. go with me and regis-

fare depend to a tremen- dous degree upon the mother’s con- dition during the period of gestation. If, during these critical months, mother suf- fers from weakness and disease

of the deli- cate and im- portant or-

gans that bear the burdens of maternity, the chances are that her child will be weak, puny and sickly, with the seeds of serious disease already implanted in its little body ai birth. If the mother, during the interest- ing period, suffers from the abnormal men- tal states which recur periodically with wo- men who are weak in a womanly way, these conditions will impress themselves upon the mind of the child.

Every woman wants children who are both physically and mentally healthy. Every woman may have that kind of chil- dren if she will take proper care of herself in a womanly way. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is the best of all medicines for prospective mothers. It acts directly on the delicate and important organs that bear the brunt of maternity. It makes them strong, healthy, vigorous, virile and elastic. It allays inflammation, heals ulceration, soothes pain and tones and builds up the shattered nerves. It banishes the usual dis- comforts of the critical period, and makes baby’s introduction to the world easy and almost painless. It insures the little new comer’s health and a bountiful supply of nourishment.

ter, he responded, ‘YOu Know nie well enough and do not need ask my name.’ When I assured him that I had never seen him before and I requested him to | comply with the order under which I was acting, he refused indignantly to do so.

‘‘f then ordered the guards to take him to the parade ground and tie him to the flagstaff. Upon arriving there I again begged him to be reasonable and give his name, but he obstinately re- fused to do so. Then I ordered the men to tie him up by the thumbs. After leaving him in that position for three minutes he was let down, but again re- mained obstinately silent. He was drawn up again, and after leaving him in that painful position nearly ten min- utes he was let down, but scornfully declined to answer my most polite re- quest to give me his name. I begged him to relieve me of the necessity of

resorting to more force and to relieve himself of further humiliation and phys- ical pain, but he scorned me. There I was on the parade ground with that gentleman, who was manifestly of more than ordinary ability and consequence in the world, and in the presence of the regimental staff, 1, a young ofiicer, a mere stripling, and yet the ofticer of the day, was trying to compel him to

give his aame in accerdance with the order of the commanding officer of the department.

‘‘He remained stolidly silent, and

then I ordered the guards to buck and

gag him. It was a painful scene, which | I shall never forget. The soldiers did their duty, bound him in an uncomfort- able position and gagged him so tightly that the blood ran from his mouth. That was more than I had intended to he done the first time, and it was more than I could bear to see, so I ordered his release.

‘‘As he stood up, trembling with pain, passion and humiliation, he said: ‘lam Joseph G. Knapp, chief justice of the supreme ,court of the territory of New Mexico.’ I immediately ordered his release from custody, and he re- turned to the Hotel Fonda, where he had registered upon his arrival. His presence in Santa Fe was no secret, and nearly everybody knew him. Therefore he may have reasoned that I knew him and was merely making a parade of my authority needlessly in asking him his name and compelling him to give it. You may be very sure that I regretted the occurrence when I heard him an- nounce his name, his title and his offi- cial standing, as, indeed, I had sincere- ly regretted the entire scene from tke first.’’

‘*‘Was anything done about it offi- cially?’’

‘*Well, Ishould say so! Colonel Carle- Yon, commanding the post, wrote a re- port of the affair, which he character- ized as brutal, and recommended pro- ceedings against me, although he knew that I had only done my duty in the premises. If an obscure citizen had re- fused to give his name, as Judge Knapp had done, Colonel Carleton would have commended my course. As it was, Judge Knapp and Colonel Carleton were bosom friends and had been for years. Therefore he was biased in the matter. The papers were finally laid before President Lincoln, who had mean-

The Curate’s Wife.

A curate introduced his somewhat in- significant looking wife to the great lady of the parish in the words of Autolycus, “A poor thing, madam, but mine own.’’
