A young woman of heroic build
met a man who had known her
fath erand mother. As he gazed at
this plump Juno the light of memory
came into his eyes.
"Let me see," he mused, "which
side of the house do you resemble
most?"
"Sir," she cried in accents far from
mild, "I don't resemble the side of
any house!"

Sitting Bull Recalled. J
? (
(By William Dibble.) j
"Next!" , 1
Tliis tonsorial call, shouted in the
basement of the 9th Regiment Arm- ]
ory by Sergt. Corrie, 22nd Engineers, }
aroused a fat mail clerk with glasses, ]
who stepped to the pistol range. He
was a timid man, this clerk who was
being taught to kill bandits, and hi9
pudgy fiingers trembled about the ]
gun. He fired. He fired again and j
again. Then the marker stepped for- ,
ward and examined the target.
"Six misses!" 1
The clerk grew pale and rubbed |;
his hands in agitation.
"Now," said Sergt. Corrie, com- ;
passionately and gently "you've got
to do better than that. There's an ?
order out that if you can't shoot by ,
April?" * ' . i
"I know", said the clerk.
"Well, take six more, and see if ;
you can do better." j j
So it goes, day after day. The
pistols spout flame, the crashes of the
guns ma^e loud the ranges, and mail -t
clerks pass or don't pass and shoot
again, first slow fire, six shots at
twenty feet, then rapid fire, three (
shots, in a minute's time. And day 1
after day Sergt. Corrie, crack shot, i
winner of a dozen prizes, cajoles, ]
pets, advises young men and old, exarmy
men with half a dozen children, men
who have lived in mail offices all
their lives and shudder at the feel of ;
the pistol, bravos who know they can ;
shoot and then nearly blow their feet
off, dubs who look down the barrel, j
to put these chunks of lead somewhere
near the bull's-eye.
It is a risky job, this teaching, but

nerves, and he has a kindness that no
amount of stupidity can spoil.
"Tell me, sergeant," I said one afternoon,
when there were only a few
candidates for heaven left, "tell me
something about yourself." The sergeant
is a modest man, oh, a very
modest man, timid, you might say, 3
with a respect for officers that betrays
long service in the regular
army. I urged him to speak about a
match in which Gen. Pershing and
himself had contested. But Sergt.
Corrie appeared abashed. He shuffled
his feet, removed his glasses, and
wiped them. 1
"It would be fresh," he murmured,
''to couple my name with a general
officer of the United States."
And he would not speak more about
that match. So then I asked him to
tell me about his prizes and about his

services in the woolly West, those
lays when the Indians galloped the
plains anjl picked off United States
troopers in facile manner.
He hemmed a little, pushed back
bis white hair from his ruddy,
smooth forehead, considered. Then
be, began:
"I enlisted in the 17th infantry in
1897. Well, in September, 1881, I
was at Fort Yates, S. D. That was a
little time after the Custer massacre,
md Sitting Bull and about three hundred
of his men were at the "fort
waiting to be taken to Fort Randall
by a party under command of Capt.
tittko /loir nomo fr>r ffittiner bnll i

to be,carried away, in a wood burn-;
ing boat, up the river. .
"Now, there were about ten thousand
Sioux Indians on the other side
of the river. They had heard of Sitting
Bull's removal, and they were
hanging around in the distance, hoping
that maybe he would get away
to them.
"The boat came in sight and Sitting
Bull and his men were let out
and placed under guard close to the
river bank. I was there, right near
him. Well, sir, the boat gave a toot
and let off a cloud of white smoke.
That must have sounded bad to Sitting
Bull. I guess he realized that his
ast chance had come. So what did he
do? Up goes his arm with the handcuffs
on it and knocks the sentry's
gun from his shoulder, and off goes
Sitting Bull, running for a spot further
down the river where his friends
might make a stab at getting him
away. Off he goes, hell for leather,
through the officers' tents, and nobody
dared to shoot him. But I was
right behind all the way, about fifty
yards back, and running to beat the
band. On and on we go. I guess I
never ran so fast before or after, and
I began to gain on him.
" 'Stop, Bull!' I yelled. I couldn't
yell 'Sitting Bull', it took too much
breath. 'Stop Bull', and I pulled my
pistol out and took a crack at him.
Missed. Bang ? I fired again, missed
again, and then I gave him the whole
works, four shots and missed him
clean. But I was coming close to
him, and now I put everything into
my legs and gained ten yards on him.
I was close to him and could have almost
hit him with the empty gun.
Then I gained a little, gave a devil of
a jump and landed on his neck.
Down he went and I began to load
my gun. I would have finished him
off right there if the interpreter
hadn't come up just at the wrong
minute and stopped me."
