Queer Way t!i« llaytlan Authorities Have of Taking Care of Tlittlr Convicts and Warriors—They Travel hi Pairs nnd Iteg in the Streets Day by Day. Philip McDowell is an oM and well known New Yorker He was a volun teer fireman once, and all old New York ers know what that means. Of late years Mr. McDowell I ms traveled exten sively abroad. He visited Hayti. A day or two ago a rejiorter naked him what was the most striking thintf he saw in the black republic. “I saw many strange thitips in Hayti, but the strangest of all was the way the soldiers and prisoners ufo transformed ihlo beggars and are forced to live on charity. When a prisoner is sentenced to d^> time there he doesn't have a uni form. he learns no trade nnd he doesn't t?et anything to eat from the govern ment. Ho is allowed to beg, though, for money and grub, and if he won't lx?] —well, he can starve. “This begging is a funny kind of busi- aer-s. Take the prison at Jacmel, for in stance. Well, every morning they fir the prisoners out to pick tip whatever they can get, and e.*:.»b fellow has a sol dier along with him to see that he doesn’t run away. The two beg together all day and whack up in the evening. Then the soldier brings hack his prisoner to jail and goes up to tin- fort to show that he has his t usket all right, and hasn’t sold it for drinks or a square meal during the day.” SOLDIERS GKT NO PAY. “But don’t the Ilaytian soldiers get pay?" “No, they don’t. Any money there is in tho army goes to the generals, and of them there aro enouglt to command the combined armies of Ettroiieand America. Once in a long while tho Ilaytian soldier gets a dollar, which is worth abont seventy cents in our money, but ho and the prisoners live by begging. They go in twos from hon.se to house and from store to store. Sometimes they have a good day and make a dollar and sometimes they don’t make fifty cents, but what ever it is they must live on it. “Tho soldier himself is a scarecrow. He has never been drilled, has no uni form to speak of, and if he hadn’t a musket to carry around with him you couldn't tell him from'the prisoner he is taking care of. Yon recollect the old Long Toms we had in our army before the war? Well, that’s the kind tho Hay- tian soldiers carry. They are all old cap and ball cerncems, as like as not to go off at the wrong end. “Take a soldier, a sailor or a fireman with us, and they all have a prido in keeping all their tools neat and clean; but military prido isn’t in tho game that tho Haytian soldier plays. When he gets homo after a day’s begging ho pitches his old innsket into a corner jnst as a laborer in tho street cleaning depart ment gets rid of his shovel. It may be rusty and honeycombed, bnt as long as ho can show up with it at tho fort and satisfies tho government that it hasn’t gone to tho junk shop he’s happy.” DEATH OF NO ACCOUNT. “Tho soldiers ami the prisoners must t>o pretty good chums?” “Well, that’s very much as you take it. It’s a common sight to see the guard and tho prisoner reeling home together if they’ve made out well. “I suppose you'd imagine that prison ers would often get away with these kind of guardians, but they don’t. When ever tho soldier takes it into his head that tho prisoner is going to escape he just shoots him dead, and that’s all there is to it. No coroner comes aronnd and post inortems aro unknown. Why, 1 was walking one day with a friend on one of tho chief streets of Jacmel. “Right in front of us was a drunken soldier and a drunken prisoner. ‘Now,' said my friend, ‘you watch that fellow and see if ho doesn't take it into hia head that his prisoner is going to escape, and if he does ho will shoot him.’ Sure enough, a minute or two after tho drunken prisoner staggered into tho mid dle of thostreet, and tho equally drunken soldier ups with his Long Tom and shoots him dead. “Tilings are not qnite as bad at Port- an-Prince as they are at Jacmel and the smaller towns on the island, but the dif ference is not worth talking of. Hayti collects plenty of money in duties, but it is all grabbed by a few jnen, while the mass of tho people aro left to get on as best they can, anil are forced to support out of their pockets as objects of charity soldiers and convicts.”—New \ork Re corder. Savin# tt Sparrow. An authentic incident in the career of General Robert E. Lee is told as au evi dence of his sweetness of disposition and natnral kindliness. One day he was in specting the batteries over the lines tie- low the city of Richmond, and the sol diers had gathered in a group to wel come him. This action drew upon them tho fire of the Union guns. The general faced about and advised the men to go under shelter. But he did not do this himself. Walking on, although in apparent danger, he picked up aud replaced an unfledged sparrow which hail fallen from its nest near by. The act was instinctive, but perhaps indicates a really higher endowment than ability to condnct notable cam paigns— Youth’s Compauion. A Great Walker. Henrick Ibsen is a methodical walker. So fond is ho of hia daily walk that he takes it rain or shine, and tho cotton umbrella which he always carries has become a part of hi» individuality. Hia favorite time for walking is an hour be fore twilight. He writes incessantly all day and adopts this method of resting his tired brain and body. Hia well knit, muscular frame attests his good health, and he can stand nvf amount of literary work. It Is said of Ibsen that be writes one year and walks tho next—Washing ton 8tor.
