ARMY POST HAZING
A Very Raw Recruit Who Got a
Very Warm Reception.
HIS CLASH WITH “OLD BULL.”
After the Quite Informal Introduction
to the Colonel Was Effected the Ta
bles Turned and "Corporal Suda” Got
a Dose of His Own Medicine.
General E. V. Sumner, who was long
colonel In command of the “Fighting
Seventh" cavalry, was known to the
rnnk and tile of Ids regiment as "Old
Bull." Ills grulT manners may have
hnd something to do with the nick
name. hut It came to him fairly by in
heritance. Ills father. General Sum
ner. hare it before him.
When the Seventh was stationed at
Fort Grant. Arizona, n very raw recruit
was sent on from Kansas City. As
usual, the men persecuted him from
the start. lie returned meekly from
the ordnance stores with the informa
tion that "left handed ramrods" were
all gone: without hotting an eyelash he
reportt'd that the sergeant in charge
of the ilost exchange swore at him
when he applied for his "butter
checks.” They took his last two bits
away from him in tile canteen In some
hocus poeus game. After supper he was
"blanket tossed" until the arms of the
tossers grew weary, and three times
that night Ills bunk collapsed amid
roars of merriment. The recruit then
gave up the struggle and lay shivering
upon the floor until morning.
He neither murmured nor com
plained. In fact, he seemed to be so un
sophisticated that when he asked his
room corporal where lie could hnve
some washing done the corporal, with
a Jerk of his thumb, indicated the com
manding bttlcer’s bouse on the corner
of the parade. "Go over to that big
house." the corporal directed. "Take
your bundle with you and nsk for Old
Bull. He takes In all the washln’ at
this iiost."
Grasping hts little bundle, the green
Ind from Kansas City shambled across
the parade, mouuted the colonel's front
stoop and innocently pulled the door
bell. The Joke wus an old one, as Old
Bull had never been known to answer
the bell in person, and more than one
recruit hnd learned the way to "Soap
suds row" after a tougue lashing from
the commandant's dusky maid of all
work. And as she had threatened to
scald the next man who bothered her
about his washing the tip was passed
along from troop to troop, and the men
swarmed out on the vernDdas to see
the fuu.
But Just ns the recruit pulled the bell
who should step out but Old Bull him
seir. booted and spurred tor ms morn
ing ride.
"What do you want here?" he thun
dered, surprised to see un enlisted man
at his front door.
“I—I—I wanted to see about gettln'
these sh-shirts and socks done up.
m-mister," stammered the frightened
recruit. "They told me to come over
here and nsk for Old Bull." he added.
“Well. I'm Old Bull!” roared the
colonel. "You come along with me and
point out the man that sent you over
here." he went on ns he grasped the
astonished youth and hurried him to-
wnrd the troop quarters.
The crowds upon the verandas melt
ed away ns Colonel Sumner approach
ed. but the guilty corporal was found
lurking in the troop barber shop. Some
heated language ensued, and then at
the eud of the painful Interview Old
Bull delivered himself thus:
"Corporal. I ought to have you court
martlaled. I could hnve your stripes
taken away and see that you got about
thirty days Into the bargain or I could
have you lined. But you've been one
of my befit noncoms. You're always
sober and a good shot, and so I’m not
going to tnke your chevrons, your lib- ]
ert.v or your money away from you.
But since you're such an expert on
Inundry matters I order you to do this
man's washing on the front porch of
these quarters every Monday morning
at guard mount.
“And you. he bellowed, turning to
the recruit and shaking his gauntlets
nt him. “you see that you hnve at
least two suits of underclothes and
seven pairs of socks for him every
week. And If he don't wash ’em clean
you report to Old Bull, that's me!"
And thereafter for several months,
until a baud of Tonto basin Apaches
went on a rampage and gave them
more serious tilings to think about, the
men of the Seventh looked forward
happily to Monday morning guard
mount. The noncommissioned laun-
dryman became known as “Corporal
Suds” and was teased about the affair
until the day n piece of Spanish shrap
nel cut short iris existence.—Youth's
