PEARSALL (Copyright.) 1 was standing on Kearney street In San Francisco when 1 saw a two- liorse wagon pass with the letters "Q.M.D., U.S.M.O.," on Its side. The letters seemed to me to have some personal significance. So I hailed the driver, who wns dressed In n blue uniform, and asked him what they meant. "Quartermaster’s Department. Uni ted States Marine Corps." he said. "Oh," I said. "Is that it? I thought they might mean, 'Quick,. McDonald, Useless Suckers Made Comfortable.’ " He laughed a hit. "Your, name Mc Donald?” "Yes.” “Well, they might mean .that, too. Got a job?" "No.” ' "Want one?” "Yes." "Jump In nnd come with me." He look nte to the recruiting office nt the foot of Market street, nnd the wind-up of It whs that before the day was over I wns enlisted in the Marine Corps ns a private at thirty per, nnd on my way to the barracks at Mare Islnnd. Which Is all merely by way of ex plaining how I ennie to he doing n mld-watcli In an orderly box lu front of the commandant's house on that auspicious night four months Inter. Shortly nfter midnight the telephone rang. "Commandant’s orderly," I answered. “This is wireless. Message from Western Union.” I grabbed n pencil nnd memorandum pnd nnd prepared to copy It, "Let ’er go,” I said. This wns the astounding ntessnge that I received: - Commanding Officer, Marine,Barracks. Mare Island, via Commandant, Navy Yard: Place Private Fred B. McDonald under immediate arrest. Further Instructions by mall. (Signed), Bliss, Commandant Marine Corps. Fred E. McDonald 1 That was my self! Rather than stny nnd.face the un certain charge, with Its still more un certain attendants of trial nnd punish ment, I would run away. What with the sentries and civilian watchmen and guards It wasn’t going to be any easy time getting off the island, nnd that I knew. Then I started down Davis street toward the water-front. I knew where there was a shore-boat lying alongside the' sea-wall at the end of the street. I would steal that, or borrow It, rather, and get away. .It was a mighty dark nigl}t; X had that In ray favor. I got/ half-way down the street without being dis covered. Then, just as I was passing the Bn- glneer building, some one turned into the street about fifty feet ahead. I stopped and slunk against the side ot the building; but he bad heard me. “Halt!" he cried. "Who’s there?” It was a sentry. , .Tust above me was a barred window. I took hold of the ledge and pulled myself up noiselessly. There I clung, monkey-Uke. The sentry challenged three times. Then he proceeded to Investigate. Several times he passed me so close flint I could have kicked Ills hat off. Rut. nt last he gave It up nnd went his way, and I went mine, gratefully. I made It to the sea-wall without further mishap. And then the door of a near-by build' Ing opened nnd a night watchman came out, “Olt-h, ye dlvfl, Ol have ye, have 01?” he cried, and made a dive for me. “You have not!” I said. I sprang out of the boat and dodged him as he came.. I sprinted up’ the water-front at a ten-second gait, with him lumbering behind. "Stop or Oi’il shoot, Oi’ll shoot,” he yelled. I didn’t think he would, and so I kept, on running. But, all of a sudden, from In front of me came the sharp: “Halt! Halt! Halt!” of a sentry. I knew that meant business. There was only one thing to do. It was a long swim across the channel, and the undertow was treacherous, but I turned and dove headlong from the sea-wall Bang! Say, did you ever make a running dive, expecting to hit water, and in stead land square on a solid oak plat form. No? Well, that’s what I had done. A float, for the use of shore-boats, had been anchored there. I learned more astronomy in that insjant than I ever had at school. The senjjy and the watchman pulled me off the float. I was pretty well dazed; but got myself together In » moment. “Sure, an’ ye- are a lncky beggar," said the watchman. "What are ye goln’ to do with hum, sin try ?" “Turn him over to the sergeant of the guard, I suppose," said the sentry. “What were you trying to do, any. way?” “I’m restricted,” I said. "I was try ing to make a liberty. I haven’t been off the Island since pay-day.” “Well. I don’t know as I blame you much,” said the sentry, who was ■ re-enlisted man, and had probably broken restrictions many times him self. So they turned me loose nnd I started up Front street, pretty badly dlscotmrged. 1 had Just missed my best chance for gaining freedom. And I knew that I must run the gantlet of several more sentries before 1 reached the launch-landing, the next point from which It might be possible to get a boat. The rattle of a sword sounded ahead of me. It was the officer of the day making his rounds. So he wns to he ndded to my other troubles. . I would Impersonate a member of flie guard. 1 had done watches over that post nml thought I remembered till the or ders. 1 would make a bluff at It any way. I walked boldly out In the street nnd. toward ttie approaching footsteps. When nbout thirty -fincos distant, I stopped. "Halt I Who’s there?" I challenged. "Officer of the day." "Advnnce, officer of the day, with the countersign.” • He advanced. “Haiti Countersign!" I challenged again, when he had arrived within ten pnees. “Custer,” lie said. Finally lie turned away, qnd I sa luted nml started on, taking off iny Imitation belt ns sooA ns I got out of sight. * I walked boldly enough now. I wns halted ’by several sentries, but gave them the countersign nnd wns allowed to pass. ’ However, while I wns penring the launch-landing, a big white light com ing up the stream .suddenly gave me an Inspiration. It was the Rehome, from San Fran cisco, ■■ nnd from the curve she wns making she evidently Intended running alongside the sea-wall In order to land n consignment of stores on H|0 Islnnd. Tlie corporal of the guard, who lind come down from the guard-house, stood near, lantern In hand, checking off the freight as It arrived. I watched my opportunity. At a mo ment of some little confusion I slipped from my hiding place to n point near the onsets of goods, nnd then started boldly up 'the gangway, hoping to be. mlstakcp- In the 'darkness for one of the workmen. But rn’y little plnn didn’t work, Something, or sbmo one attracted the attention of (he corporal of the. guard to me. He let n whoop out of him like a Comanche. “Halt! Hey, there, you! Stop!” I was already hnlf-wn.v' up the gang way. I didn’t stop. How could I? I just couldn't afford to be caught now. , A general court martial wns the least I'could expect! I leaped, up the gangway Into the after comportment of the ship, anil up another gangwny to the upper dock. The corporal of. the guard wns right at my heels. tl rushed to the port-rail, leaped over H*. and landed again on the sen-wall, with a crash that well-nigh broke my legs. I scurried off In the darkness. As I passed In rear of the guard house I saw lights flash In the relief rooms, and heard the excited hum of voices os the .guard grabbed their rifles and belts. In thirty seconds I would have half n hundred men hunt ing me like a rabbit. A light, loomed up ahead of me. It was the light of my orderly box. I rushed up to It, jerked open the door and sprang Inside. .Tust then the telephone rang. I took up the re ceiver. ’’Hallo, orderly. This is wireless. Where've you been? Been trying to get you for fifteen minutes. All right. Take this message.” It was as fol lows : Commanding Officer, Marine Barracks, Mare Jslhnd, via Commandant, Navy Yard: Error In preceding mesmige. The Pri vate, Fred K. McDonald, in question, now at Brooklyn Navy Yard. Disregard letlcr. (Signod), Bliss, Commandant Marine Corps. I had just started to copy this mes sage In the smooth log when the ser geant of the guard stuck his head in nt the door. “Say, orderly," ho said, "haven’t heard any one pass here, have you? On the run? No I Funny. He must have come this way. Where could he have gone?” About half an hour afterward my relief came and my mid-watch was over. „ But I hud some trouble next morn ing In explaining how I’d got so bad ly battered up over night. Child Entitled to Opinions.' In training the child, his opinions should b« respected nnd parents should take time nnd have'patience to show him wherein lie Is right or wrong. He certainly cannot always have his own wny, now nor In the future; therefore he must learn to obey before he Is lit to command, and careful, constant training Is needed to produce this re sult. Children should he churns with their parents, and should also have the companionship of other children nnd learn ,to "got along" without diifi- cultles or quarrels; adaptability Is es sential to happiness,—Exchange. Paper Money That Is Lost. From figures available It Is esti mated that bills of larger denomina tions nre not frequently lost. Prob ably not more than throe-tenths of 1 per cent of them fall to return. Tak ing It altogether, It Is estimated that, aside from the shlnplnsters that were lost, there 1ms been about $8,000,000 woYth of paper money that went out of the treasury nnd never enme back, These were United Slates notes uud gold nnd silver certificates.
