corporations have operated their
.business in a more or 1- s arrogant
fashion, persistently r fusing to
makes their acts known to the pub

!had been made public at the time.
many of tho Ills fit n which they
are now Buffering would not have
occurred, and millions of dollars of
investment would li'vo been saved.
The e.fcct of corporate misman

ever, when its discovery comes too
late by governmental Investigation,

Recruits Have Difficult Names.
London, (By mail to New
York) Sept. 17.—In every camp
where Great Britain’s new ar
jmies are being drilled the drill
masters are sweating over their
! company rolls at night desper
jately trying to remember the
|pronunciation of names, of aris
tocratic recruits, who fail to re
cognize Cholmondly when pro
no ..need as it is spelled.
. . sergeant calling the roll for
a ompany of the new “sports- j
man” battalion for the first time |
han a terrible experience recent-1
ly. Having disposed of a few
“Harper’s” and “Mitchells” he
came to the name “Montague.”
“Private Montaig,” shouted
the 'sergeant.
There was no answer.
After the name had been re
peated a half a dozen times
there came a faint response:
“Here sir.”
“Why didn’t you answer be
fore?” demanded the sergeant.
“Because my name is Monta
gue,” corrected the recruit.
“Well,” snapped the sergeant,
“you’ll do five days in fat gow.”
The next name on the list,
“Majoribanks,” brought no re
sponse at first for the sergeant
pronounced it “Majorey banks.”
“I expect you mean me, sir,”
was the response at the second
pronunciation. “My name is
“Marshbanks.” The sergeant
reeled but bravely proceeded
with “Colquhoun.”
“Private Col-kew-houn” he
called.” “Coohoon, sir, that's I,”
came the reply from the front
_i _
idiirv.
The drillmaster wearily closed
his book and gave the order,
“Number.” This completed he
said: “One hundred and twen
ty-one. That’s right. Now if
there are any more with fancy
names come to me later and di
agnose them.”

Rice Threshing In Progress.
The editor made a trip through
the rice district of the western
part of this county the first of
the week, and found most of the
rice a little too green for har
vest, although a number of peo
ple had cut a few acres of their
ripest rice. On the farm of J.
C. and J. B. Stone, near Wal
denburg, the whole works were
in full blast. The thresher was
running, several wagons were
hauling out to the thresher and
the reaper was doing good serv
ice. They are greatly encourag
| ed over the production of a fine
| crop, and if they can have good
weather to save it they will be
up in the pictures.—Harrisburg
