Major Cronin Declares Pennsylvania's
Citizen Soldiery Do Not Requiro
Few Days Usually Necessary to
Lead Up to Instruction.

Mount Greta. Pa.. July 13. Praise
of a kind and from a source to be ap
preciated by every man In the Na
tlonal guard of Pennsylvania, from
Governor Teuer, the commnnder In
chief, down to the newest recruit, was
bestowed upon the organization by
Majoi M. D. Cronin of the United
States army, detailed to brigade head
qunrters for the encampment of the
Fourth brigade.
Complimentary reference wns en
tirely voluntary and came In the
course of conversation In n way that
Indicated he felt It to be due to the
citizen soldiery of the state, as repre
sented by this brigade.
"I came here knowing nothing
whatever of the character of the Penn
sylvania militia." he said. 'l have
had experience with the citizen sol
diers of other states, but never had
come In contact with this one.
'"It has been the universal experience
of array officers, detailed to service In
instructing mllltla, that n few days
were necessary to bring the troops Into
shape for uvoii the rudimentary In
struction with which they nro usually
started. That has not been true here.
"Two of the cardinal virtues of mili
tary men are promptness and pre
cision, not only in action, but In Judg
ment. They are well understood by
the men of .this brigade. I started out
with the Idea that It would be neces
sary to allow a certain amount of time,
after an order was Issued, for the men
to get ready to execute It.
"Great wns my Burprlse, therefore,
after seeing General Coryell Issue his
iflrst order In this encampment for an
assembling of the troops, to see the
men marching out .to their work al
most as soon as the order was de
livered.
"It Is especially this spirit Of military
promptness and dispatch that com
i?ids Itself to me and that Is really
remarkable in a body of men taken
from so many different- walks in life
and having only one week of active
field duty In the year.
"The health1, endurance, Intelligence
and stnmlna of the men are nil worthy
of notice, but that one item of prompt
ness outweighs the others."
Tho mimic contest for possession of
Lebanon and Its lmnglnnry stores of
military supplies was resumed with
tho regiments nctlng against each
other.

Sir Elden Qorst Dead.
London, July 18. Sir Eldon Qorst,
British its sat and coninl general In

Washington, July 13. Answering
the recent speech of Representative
Elenry of Texas, a Democrat, con
cerning "dollar diplomacy" or the
"scandalous way our present day am
bassadors scramble for royal favor,"
Representative King of California, a
Republican, addressed the house on
the results of his researches in the
files of the state department.
In order to demonstrate that times
havo not changed nnd that if It's true,
as Representative Henry charges, that
American diplomatic representatives
at foreign courts seek to bask In the
sunshine of kingly smiles It wns even
more true in tho days of okl. Mr.
Kahn read a number of communica
tions received at the state department
a century or more ago.
Silas Dean, Representative Kahn
said, wrote home from Franco to the
Continental congress requiring that
some products of the colonies be for
warded to him to be given to Qiieen
Marie Antoinette to secure her royal
Influence. Here Is bis letter as read
by Mr. Kahn:
Dec. 31, 1776. The queen Is fond of pa
ade and, I believe, wishes for war and Is
ur friend. She loves riding on horse
jack. Could you send me a fine Narra
tansett horse or two? The money would
ae well laid out: Rlttenhouse's aviary or
Arnold's collection of Insects, a phaeton
American make and a pair of bay
lorsea. a lew barrels oi apples, wainuis.
ranberrles. butternuts, etc.. would be
rrrat curiosities.
Representative Kahn remarked that
Mr. Henry had dwelt on the fact that
men of large means are invariably se-
ected to fill responsible diplomatic
posts abroad.
"From the outset,"- said Mr. Kahn,
the pay to our representatives abroad
has been entirely inadequate, and at
very period of our country's history
he men who have represented us on
diplomatic missions have been com
pelled to use their private means.
Thus Thomns J. Jefferson when
minister to Frnnce wrote to the Con
tinental congress and to his own per
sonnl friends that it was impossible
to live on his salary. Ho suggested a
more liberal appropriation. Writing to
John Jay, secretary of "foreign affairs
he said:
"It is the usage here, nnd I suppose nl
ill courts, that a minister shall establish
l house In the first Instance. If this Is
lone out of his salary he will be a twelve
month absent without a copper to live on.
My furniture, carriage and apparel are all
plain, yet they have cost me more tnan a
rear's salary.
"John Adams," continued Represent
atlve Kahn. "complained to the con
federation in 1785 thnt his salary at
Paris and Tho Hague was Insutllclent
to ennble blm to make a decent np
pearnnce nt court and In society. He
told the congress his expenses bad
pinched nnd straightened him 'con
foundedly.
"It goes without saying," added Mr.
Kahn, "that if our representatives are
to accept courtesies they are compelled
to return courtesies. John Quiney
Adnms, probably tho most experienced
of all our diplomats, wrote to the state
department in 1815 that 'the annual
salary of an American minister is In
sufficient to support a man with a fam
Hy I say not In tho stylo of high offi
cial rank, but in the decency becoming
a private gentleman.'
"His predecessor, William Pinckney,
an exceptionally able American dlplo
mat in his day, had to relinquish the
English mission.
"I.could give innumerable instances,"
said Mr. Kahn, "where our presidents
nnd our secretaries of state from the
beginning of the government to the
present day have urged upon the con
gress tho urgent necessity for InCrcns
lng tho sniaries of our representatives
abroad.
"Congress, however, has not seen fit
to do so, and I think I can truthfully
say that our salaries to our diplomatic
representatives abroad at tho present
time are proportionately less than they
wero at, the beginning of tho govern
ment"
Replying to Representative Kahn.
Mr. Henry said It wns "not the polite
formality, but the vulgar extrav
ngnnces into which this country has
rushed in diplomatic affairs, of which
he complained."
"I have an Idea," ho said, "that tho
secretary of state has taken no steps
looking to the purchase nbrond of em
bassy buildings because there seems to
be no dosiro on the part of soma peo
ple to return to tho diplomatic slm.
plicity which this country should pur
sue.
"Ambassador Reld's viceregal state
tn London is not typical of the Amer
ican government."
Mr. Henry said ho "would rnthor this
government never sent another repre
sentative to Berlin than to take orders
from the German, government as to
what la to be tbo sine quo non of a
.diplomat there;" '

HOW THE BARBER POLE
ORIGINATED.
a conversation with a local bar
ber recently, ibrought out the ques
tion of the origin of the barber s
pole. His explanation was so clear
that It Is reproduced here. He
said:
"As In the case of many other
simple things, the origin of the bar
ber's pole has been attributed to the
most outlandisii and rar-retcnea
sources', among others the associa
tion with the word 'poll' (head),
with which the barber has chiefly to
do. But In olden days, and not so
far back, either, the barber had
"business with other parts of the
body and performed certain opera
tions which are now restricted to
the medical practitioner, the chief
of which was bleeding. The staff
which every patient about to under
go blood-letting was given was
told In his or her hand during the
operation, and after the proceedings
the staff was placed outside of the
barbershop and soon became the
recognized sign of the self-constituted
phlebotemlst's profession. Two
long bandages were used In the oper
ation, one twisted around the arm
before bleeding and the other used
to bind It afterwards: these would
often he kept wound around the pole
for convenience, so as to be ready
at hand when needed, and so when
In course of time a permanent pole
was 'planted outside the barber's
door It was found much handler to
paint a representaton of the two
bandages, one white and the other
blood-stained, upon it, and It was
done accordingly."
