A number of oaroles,, thoughtless people have done what they could to give the malady a chance to spread. The funerals o! all vlellms are supposed to be private, but a number of the friends and neighbors ol one family a t tended a funeral. The child bad died of black diphtheria, and yet these people knew ao better than to attend the funeral, and the pareets permitted them to be pres ent without uttering a word of protest. The ease has been reported to the authori ties, and will be Investigated. Every effort will be m ad. to stamp out the disease and prevent Its spread, but both the health and lehool authorities are handicapped by (bougktleas actions like those mentioned.

The a matter which inter ests everyone, since O atling-gun Bill is now doing the p u b lic A service by honoring those same (traps in the Philippines. Bntbdfore entering on the real story it maybe well to acquaint the general reader with the difference between shoulder straps -and chevrons. Be it known then that the wearer of s h o u l der straps is an exalted individual, moulded from a little finer clay than ordinary mortals. He is a commis sioned officer in the U nited States Army, aud as such, is on his dignity all the time, never descending to the level of his plebeian brethren, the rank and file or enlisted men. The wearer of chevrons, on the other hand, is just a plain soldier like the rest of them, only given a little authority (very little at that) aud a few dollars extra pay. Now, Oatliug-gnu Bill never ex pected to be anything more than a non-commissioned officer, a wearer of chevrons, because, in the first place, like all other soldiers, he heartily de- American outpost, two bundled yards Id be d istinc tly seen, aud, they marched silently to and fro, all All at once u sharp report sounded with startling distinctness on the still spised the officers with their fine seemed peaceful aud secure, irtlin g night air.

T h en, iu the second place,he did not havo the education necessary to be promoted Irom the ranks and could become a commissioned officer only by a special act of providence or ery which deserved reel way. Like every other soldier, of se. he was hoping that some d b iring ------- - ly by a spet the legislature, for some act of brav- servod recog every ctbo is hoping th would b luck bis way and make him one of the elect, for even though the officers were a despised lot, there was a c ertain fascination about life in uition in that circles. Ho of despising if it could stand a came to the upper good deal that. Still, as has been said, be never ex pected to become nu officer, so one day when bis captain smiled on him be nignly and made him sergeant of the gntling-guu squad, he was elated. The height of bis am had been reached almost. (latling-gnu Bill had served years in greatly m hitiun g -g> the army when the Spanish- American war broke out. He had be come a fine soldier iu that time and was deeply imbued with the spirit of the service. He had made a record on the rifle range the first year aud after hia promotion had surprised every one with the tuanauiveriug of the gatliug-giiu. ft a as his pride aud he had been told that there was no better man in the whole army in a sim ilar position than he. He used to pat his gun affectionately after practice aud he looked with pity on the poor fellows who had to work with ench crude weapons as pigirou shot putters, ns ho called the heavy artillery, in Bill's eyes there was no weapon on the green earth which could be made to do anything like the work of Ins gatling-guu. He knew it waa the greatest machine in the world aud wondered why the army was not squads. That indeed arm y , in hia opinion. Aud ao when the war broke out Bill was in the seventh heaven of delight at thought of being able V> get in hia work on a real 'CMIM# Uetd. In his dream s he saw terrific combats, hot fighting on many fields, and the greatest activity and severest engage- m eats always around his gnu. He saw himself master of the situation times, driving back the enemy e loss at all points, con- hy th e army tirely reorganized into gntling-guu vonld be an any times, tb terrible qneriug where luavy and light artil lery, cavalry and defeated. ufantry had been For Bill was yonug yet and all his war experience amounted to. two years' practice on specially prepared ground s, firing at a wooden enemy th a t never seemed to care aud neither retreated nor returned the lire.

The enemy hail been massed oppo site the weakest point of the Ameri can line, and was now trying to re take the hill, charging in solid col umn, sixteen abreast, across the field. In an instant Bill grasped the situa tion aud the gun crank aud sent a shower of bullets against the oncom ing foe. \W h ir-r-r-r, w h ir-r-r-r,\ sang the gatling-guu, and a deadly lire, wither ing in effect, fell on the Spaniards. It was music for the Americans and Bill realized for the first time the true purpose of his gun. \W h ir-r-r-r, whir-r-r-r.\ Faster aud faster flew the crank. T h e bullets sped onward in an u n ceasing volley. The muzzle of the gun was sheathed in a continuous llaino and formed an admirable target for the Spaniards. Three of Bill’s squad were killed, a fourth wonnded, and he was left with one man to work the gun iu less than five minntos. On, on, came the enemy. Bill worked with an energy born of de spair. Unless the onslaught could bo checked, and that speedily, the hill would he retaken and the Americans m u st r e tr e a t. The gatliiig-gun was hot now -so hot that it blistered the band to touch it—but the fire never ceased. Great drops of sweat and blood poured down over Bill's face.

And so Bill grabbed the belts of cart ridges and worked the gnu alone. The muzzle now shone a bright red. It was red hot. The am m u n i tion was pouring out, a stream of mol ten metal. Bill did not see what he to the ground. Ju s t os he let shout went np trenches. The enemy was in retreat. Bill knew the day was saved. Then ho lost consciousness.
