army as a second lieutenant of the
Twenty-fourth infantry in December
1871. He is a native of Ohio. He was
born on August 13. 1851, and may serve
three years more on the active list if
he wishes.
Colonel Clem was seized by the war
fever before he had finished his tenth
year. He begged to go tn the front as
a drummer boy with a regiment pass
ing through his native town of New
ark. Ohio On account of his youth he
was rejected, but he was determined
ami followed the troop' to Cincinnati,
where he offered himself to the Twen
ty-second Michigan regiment, only to
be declined again. They refused to
muster him in. but he persevered and
was allowed to accompany the regiment
In its subsequent movements till he
found himself at Shiloh with Hrant.
On this field his drum was smashed
by a piece of shell. But it was at
Chickamauga that he won the sobri
quet of the "Drummer Boy of Chic ka

had been allowed to exchange his drum
for a musket shortened especially for
his use. for In his own words, he did
not lik.- to stand and be shot at with
out being able to shoot back.
He blazed away like a veteran. At
the close of the day when the army

brigade was sui t minded and a demand
made for its surrender. Johnny did
not fall back as quickly as the rest
and a < 'onfederate colonel having sum

’ ME DRAWN IN
N. T. GRAFT NET
Former City Chamberlain Hyde,
Friend of Gaynor, Is Now
Wanted as Witness.
I NEW YORK, Sept. 19. —To pave the
I wav at today s session of the alderman
,ie graft investigating committee for
calling Charles H Hyde, formerly city
chamberlain and close friend of Mayor
i Gaynor, as a witness was the pro
i gr im outlined this morning by Emory
i R. Buckner, counsel for the committee.
Mr. Buckner stated that Hvdes name
had been on the list of possible wit
nesses since the campaign was com
i menced, but it was not until the con
troversy involving Under Sheriff A. J.
! Johnson Attorney George C. Notion.
! the alleged "promotion broker" in the
j police department, and Winfield R.
Sheehan. Commissioner Waldo's private
secretary, that Hyde's testimony be
came important.
The committee's counsel wants to
know what information, if any. Hyde
has of the grafting in the police de
partment and the "bureau of promo
tion," where pqjice officials could buy
any number of stripes that their pock
etbooks could stand.
It was believed that neither Norton
nor Sheehan would be called. Both
men are originally from Buffalo and
were intimate friends before coming .to
this city.
Johnson was under orders to report
to the committee today to continue his
story begun yesterday upon the wit
ness stand, when he told how, being
led by "superheated curiosity.” he hired
private detectives, who trailed Norton
to the apartment of Sheehan. Mr.
Buckner said he wanted further light
- as to why Johnson hired detectives, and
: with whom he conversed before taking
1 the step.
Want to Konw About Buying Captaincy
It was Johnson, according to Police
1 Captain John Reith, who made the first
advances with an offer to have that of-
J ficial. then a lieutenant, promoted to a
captaincy if he would "come across”
. with SIO,OOO.
Whether or not Hyde was concerned
with Johnson in Norton's movements is
another question upon which Buckner
s wants elucidation.
This same question Is to be put to
• Former Sheriff Nicholas Hayes, who
was the first person to call Johnson’s
attention to the alleged headquarters
for the collection of police graft in the
building at 115 Broadway, according to
Johnson's testimony. Norton's office is
in the building at 115 Broadway.
Thomas Hassett, confidential secre
tary to State Engineer Bensel, who was
mentioned in Reith's affidavit as having
"been seen” in connection with the $lO.-
000 promotion, came here from Albany
demanding that he be heard in self
explanation. < •’
Commissioner Waldo will be called
again as soon a.* all' other wit
nesses are heard in connection with the
Reith affidavit.
It was originally said that the amount
in the Reith affidavit was $15,000. but
it has now been reduced to SIO,OOO.
Reith, who has been on the force
for many’ years, compiled a table of
prices for entrance and promotion in
the department. He said it cost him
S3OO to get into the harbor squad and
S6OO for promotion to roundsman. A
captaincy was worth SIO,OOO. and other
grades were valued in proportion.

If Men Could Always Buy Their Furnishings
As They Can Tomorrow and Saturday!
If they only could!
But they can not.
Which is the one big reason that should pull
them here for this sale,
The sox, the ties, the shirts are those that most
men like--it is simply a case of selling them for less
than their worth.
If that is interesting, read on
-25c Sox at 15c
50c Sox at 25c
There are thirty dozen of those to be sold at 15c a pair.
They are all .that any 25c sox could be. Rather light in weight
with the usual reinforced heel, toe and sole. These in black, tan,
navy and grey. Those that are 25c a pair are silk lisle,’
and a splendid quality of silk lisle at that—in black, tan, navy,
light blue, purple and grey.
$3.00 and $3.50 Shirts $1.50
We ad\ ise an early morning trip for these. There are only
three dozen of them to be sold at this price—those that are left
of the soft crepes and mercerized pongees—imported materials,
beautifully striped in lavender, tan, blue and grey. They have
the soft, turn-back cuffs. Shrewd men will buy them if for no
other reason than to put them awav for next spring Sizes
15 to 16 1-2.
And, While Speaking of Shirts,
The newly arrived fall patterns, at SI.OO and $1.50, merit
and demand attention—because of their smartness. They set up
a new standard of value at their prices. Neat, good-looking
patterns in French percale, and some even in woven madras—
which means that the little colored stripes, lines and flecks are
c yed., not in the piece, but in the threads. Also, and verv em
phatically, these shirts FIT.
Knitted Ties All Reduced i
Knitted ties are the aristocrats of tiedom. Here now you
may buy these rich, colorful, choice patterns at the verv begin
ning of their season at these reductions:
$2.00 Knitted Ties at $1.25
