PROVOST GUARD DUTY
Coi reept-ndence of The Evening Star.
TAMPA. Florida, June 26, 185)8.
As I occupied a comfortable ro"klng
chair on the veranda of the Tampa Kay
Hotel, a few evenlr.gs ago, the moonlight
spread softly over a veritable Garden of
Eden. Orange trees, palms and other
varieties of tropical vegetation were grow
ing almost within reach of the arm. Well
kept walks led in every direction. To the
front was a Btretch of green as level as
our White Lot, backed by a heck of Hills
borough bay. Glimmering beyond the
water at some distance, were the lights of
bustling Tampa?bustling solely because of
the presence of thousands of soldiers lust
visited by the paymaster. Tampa Pay Ho
tel, ten days prior the pivot on which re
volved the social whirligig of western
Florida. ?i>8 hardly more lively than a
wayside inn. Gen. Miles was in Washing
ton and the majority of the other guests cf
note had sailed with the Santiago expedi
tion. These included the gaudily-al tired J
representatives of foreign governments,
high officials of our own army and many |
journalists of renown. The hotel was .
practically deserted. To be sure. Lieuten- I
ant Colonel Michler?"Danuy" Michler. :ts
he is known throughout the army?adju
tant general on the stuff of General Miles,
was in evidence, as usual, immaculate in
attire, to the minutest detail. But lieu
tenant Colonel Ml* hler, capable as he un
questionably is. made no apparent en
deavor to till the void created by the de
parture of all the others. The additional
guests were some few left-behinds of the
militar)- establishment, and the w'ves of
several of the absent officers and news
paper men. Scenes of ceaseless gayety
bad given way to a reaction that was the
consummation af peace and quiet. All
alone on the veranda, therefore, it was nat
ural that one should think. These were
?samples of the thoughts that, without ef
fort, drifted rny way.
Though believed reluctantly, the Florida
as seen within the borders of the garden of
the Tampa Bay Hotel is entirely artificial.
It is the Florida that we from Washington
expected to see as soon as we "eached the
state line?certainly In the interior?but
which we did not view until we entered the
gateway of the hotel grounds.
Grievous Ulmnpp'.intmen*.
The members of the 1st Regiment of In
fantry, District of Columbia Volunteers,
have been most grievously disappointed In
Florida, as it actually is. This, of course,
expected to pass through and be located In
the Florida they had been taught to be
lieve actually existed. It is not exaggera
tion to state that the soldier lads fully be
lieved tliey would be able, in traveling
through the state, to reach from the win
dows of the cars and pluck oranges and
bananas from the trees. Alligators, surely,
would be basking In the sun along the
banks of every stream.
The orders to leave Chicamauga ami pro
ceeed to Tampa were, therefore, hailed en
thusiastically. The demonstration of
pleasure was due partly to the prospect of
visiting Florida as the boys had pictured
it in their minds and partly to the prospect
of soon reaching the front. The regiment
Is much nearer the fighting front, to be
sure, but Florida as we thought It would
be is very much wanting. In place of
oranges, bananas and alligators we have
seen sand, sand and more sand. There are
oranges, to be sure, hut every sickly speci
men of the lot was brought here by rail
from California. In addition to sand, there
are pine trees. Sand and pines, sand and
pines, with the smallest possible evidence
of civilization, was the rule all along the
line. Not the semblance of growing fruit
could be detected anywhere. Truly, Flori
da is sadly disappointing.
The resident manager of the hotel Joined
me on the veranda. Considering him a per
son who ought to be thoroughly Informed,
I said:
"That we are in Florida is purely due -.o
the fortunes of war. But why Is It that
sane people deliberately come to this sec
tion of the country, locate permanently and
call It home? Is an explanation possible?"
"You're not the first to inquire along that
line," the manager replied. "The answer
to your question is simple. In the first
place, bear in mind that the population of
the city of Baltimore Is greater than that
of the entire state of Florida today, speak
ing only of the permanent residents. The
secret of this seeming mystery lies In the
word 'health.' Every one you may ask will
give the same answer. For Instance, the
woman who keeps the little store Just be
yond our grounds on Lafayette street Is
from the north. In her youth she was
troubled with a lung disease that was
alarming. She came to Florida, rapidly re
covered and In twenty years has not had a
recurrence of the complaint. Her record Is
similar to that of thousands of others. No
consideration could Induce any of them to
move noith. There's the whole story."
Declined With Thank*.
Attention was directed to a bird with at
tractive plumage, enjoying itself, so it
?ecmed, in the foliage. It proved to be a
curlew.
"By the way," remarked the manager,
"the curleiw. served properly, makes a
toothsome dish. He Is named this evening
in our menu. I would be glad If you would
Join me at supper."
"The curlew has wings and can fly," I
told him. "I have absolutely no respect for
any living creature, with nothing to detain
it. and with motive power attached, that
voluntarily remains in Florida. I cannot
conscientiously partake of the curlew."
We found that one of the most promi
nent of Florida's features is the friendly
fly. This fly is affectionate to an aston
ishing degree. He clings to one through
thick and thin?In fact, it often becomes
necessary to resort to surgical treatment
to detach him. The fly in Washington will
ordinarily move in compliance with a vig- j
orous "shoo" or swipe with a wet towel.
Nol so with the Florida fiy. His affection
for the members of the District regiment
is so deep rooted that when he once be
comes attached ta a soldier lad he will
part with life rat&er t^an show a sign ol
Inconstancy.
Turtles and terr<iprn?. have been known
to let go when it thunders, but the Florida
fly can supply both wfih points In the ad
hering line. Thisifiy wakes himself par
ticularly numeroujKat uie mess tables. He
lies In wait by the' million. Incidentally he
lies?and usually wallows?in the sugar,
preserves and butter. Dining at the lam
pa camp, therefore, is not an unalloyed
pleasure. f f]
A novelty to the District officers and men
Is provost guard diuty Tampa and Ybor
City. Once every jhree I days Colonel Har
ries' command is^calletl upon to furnish
details for both places. The officer in com
mand of the provost guard, while on duty,
is in supreme control of the military side
of T?mpi life, and, in that ccnnect'on, is
responsible for the suppression of any
disorder in whi<;h individuals In uniform
may be involved.* Acting under orders, I
reported, with a detail consisting of one
sergeant and nine privates, at 5 o'clock
yesterday afternoon to Chief Burke of the
Tampa police force for twenty-four hours \
of provost duty. Lieutenant Redman of j
Company C was in command of a detail I
of the same size at Ybor City. Headquar
ters were established In a police station
In the center of the city, the men being
assigned to a large room on the second
floor, provided with an electric fan r.nd a
plenteous supply of man-eating mosquitoes.
Mil lit of I'rovunl Hat)'.
The chief of police declined firmly to taks
a hand in any fracas that even indirectly
related to the military. The guard had not
been on duty more than ten minutes when
a highly excited colored waiter, hatless
and breathless, rushed into the station, and
with much difficulty managed to explain
that "de sojers war cleanin' out Moss's
saloon." A portion of the detail with bay
onets (ixed and belts bristling with loaded
ammunition was hurried to the saloon
mentioned, three blocks distant, but on
reaching it learned that the trouble was
over. In the middle of the street not far
away an enlisted man of the tilUh New York
Kegiment was lying in the dust. A glance
sufficed to show that he had reached that
stage of Intoxication known as "dead
drunk." A comrade, whose sobriety was
hardly less advanced, was Imploring the
fallen hero by all the saints known to rise
and "come on." The fallen one was car
ried to the station, where he remained
until morning, developing delirium tre
mens about midnight. The comrade, in J
humorously dignified manner, insisted that
the cas-? was not one of alcoholism. His
fellow soldier, he declared, had a sunstroke,
notwithstanding the fact that the fall oc
curred after the sun had begunteo disap
pear in the west.
A little later the entire detail was sum
moned by telephone to a stcre half a mile
away. A wholesale raid by soldiers was in
progress, so the message ran. Wellnigh
exhausted, the detail found everything
quiet on reaching the store designated.
Nothing was known of any trouble or of
the call for the guard. Thus the night
passed. A few more intoxicated volunteers
were brought in, but nothing of a serious
nature required attention.
The Police I'nlrol Sytftem*
Tampa has a police patrol box telephone
system similar to that of Washington, but
on a scale much smaller. On the list of
calls are two that seemed to me unlque
tast wagon and slow wagon. Inquiry
brought to light the fact that In respond
ing to urgent calls the horse attached to
the patrol wagon trots. In all other in
stances the animal walks.
The existence of the District's volunteers
is not without its humorous side, and ut
terances that provoke smiles are constantly
heard. On the occasion of (he last prac
tice march to Tampa Heights reveille was
sounded at 8 a. m. As he crawled from his
dog tent one private, yawning and stretch
ing. excleilmtd with much earnestness:
"This army life is one continual round of
pleasure."
A prisoner in the guard tent, after con
finement for fourteen days, was overheard
to say as he viewed himself in a bit of
cracked mirror:
"If mnmma could only gaze upon her dar
ling now."
It was a company commander, talking in
his sleep after a day pf arduous duties,
who mumbled earnestly a night or two ago:
"Oh. If I only had the individual here
who blew up the Maine!"
From what is heard on all sides it would
teem that the District regiment will pro
ceed somewhere btrfoie very long. Officers
and rr.en will joyously move away from
Tampa, as they did from Camp Alger and
later from Chlckamauga. EFSEA.

STOPIBI\G THE RIX.
Ingrnioua Way of SavlnR the Credit
of Spunish Bauka.
From the Chicago R?etrd.
A man who recently left Lisbon tells an
interesting story of th; manner In which
the Bank of Spain checked the run upon
that institution several weeks ago. The
circulating medium of Spain consists of the
notes of that bank and the silver which is
held to redeem th?m to 7o per cent, I be
lieve, of their par value. As the public was
losing confidence in the financial stability
of the government crowds of people took
their paper notes to th? bank for redemp
tion. Under ordinary circumstances they
will exchange silver for a paper note with
out any delay, but when the run com
menced the managers found it necessary to
adopt som; measures to restore confidence
and to nave the specie in their own vaults.
It would not do, of course, for them to s'no.v
the white feather or refuse to redeem their
own notes, so they adopted an ingenious
plan which ultimately tired out the people
and stopped the demand for coin. Thou
sands of people surrounded the bank?many
of them were in tiad temper?and stood in
linss several blocks long awaiting their
turn at the cashier's counter. When or.e
of them filially reached him and laid down
the note he wished to exchange for silver
coin h? was held for five or ten minutes
and subjected to a cross-examination such
as might have been given him by a census
enumerator. In the meantime a clerk
wrote his answers down upon a blank form
?his age, occupation, residence, birthplace,
the names of his parents, etc. Then he was
required to sign a formal application for the
exchange of twenty pesetas, for example,
in paper, for their equivalent in silver.
Then he was sent away and told to rjturn
in three days.
On the third day the man would return
and, after standing in line again all day
and all night, perhaps, would reach the
cashier's counter. He would be required to
bring somebody to identify him and to cer
tify that he was the person described in the
paper presented. This took a couple of
days or more, perhaps, and finally he was
given a certificate or draft upon another
cashier, who. In was told, would pay him
the money. This made it necessary tor him
to stand in another line for a day or two,
and when he finally reached the proper
place he would be required to sign a re
ceipt and make an oath of allegiance to the
government and an indorsement of the
financial soundness of the bank. Thus by
this circumlocution arrangement a man
had to waste seven or eight days to get a
paper dollar changed Into sliver, and the
transactions were so tedious and compli
cated that each consumed fifteen or twenty
minutes. As there was only one cashier
not more than forty or fifty persons at the
utmost could be served in a day, and the
clamor finally subsided from exhaustion.
LIVING U\ HUXKIIY MEAT.
A Story To1?l by nu Amerlcnn of KU
Month. in Ontara.
From the Chihuahua Enterprise.
Living In Mexico is often a disastrous
experience to the foreigner wiio is not
acquainted with localities and customs. In
the ease of John Bascon and his companion,
? an Englishman, named Martin Hayes, their
I experience was such, but it was also ln
1 teresting. In conversation with Mr. Bas
> con that gentleman stated the following
to an Enterprise reporter:
"Not long ago 1 came up from Guatema
la with an Englishman named Martin
Hiyes, and we had three burros laden
with goods. We prospected all along the
line to Tonelado, and stopped one week
with an Indian at Tehuantcpec. While
there we learned that in the district up to
Torelado there was plenty of gold, as an
other Englishman had passed through
there with fo.ootl which ne ha 1 panned oat
at a certain point somewhere In the legion
of San Pablo, in Oaxaca. We traced the
gold along the streams for sixty miles, t,nd
reached as far as San Miguel. We were
\ery hungry by this time, having run short
of provisions, and, going across tho moun
tains. were told that we should be careful,
as banditti were numerous. Soon uft<j
two men met us not'far from San Migufl,
nnd they both had rifles. They ordered ua
to halt, but I pulled a revolver nnd t<>ok
their guns away from them and marched
theni on <n front of us. Whon wo uitIvh!
at San Miguel <;ne of them ?ntered a coni
p.aint before the jese politico, charging ua
with holding them up. but the J< s<- knew
the men too well to listen to their storv,
and the r.-sult Is one of them Is ttill in Jail
*t that place.
"When we left San Miguel we secured n
mozo to guide us to wnere the Englishman
referred to found his goll, but wlun we
got there the mozo wouid not slay, as it
was known the Lngllshman had returned
?J!ll 1i1 ? fo'Jvl hln skeleton,
with the legs und arms eaten ..T, .ind the
mozo. being f< arful he wou-d see the ghost
ot the dead, left us to our*elvei. We went
across a river and ,-amped n the adjacent
woods Along the str-um we prospected
' an<1 in two week? we found g i.d
which went about 25 cents to the pan. We
remained there at?jut six month*, r.nd all
that time we lived on monkey m? at and
green bananas, and both, too. without fc.it.
Just think of it! Nothing bu; monkeys, and
occasionally a fowl or two, and not a tor
tilla or common hot e.ik". Well, sir, my
partner, Martin Hayes, of London, Eng
land, died four months after from the pri
vations suffered .luri tg "hat time, i nd I
don't suppose his wife or family ever
heard of It. But we jrot sone- gol<:, r.ll
right, and monkey mett would have l?en
ail right for me if *-a only had fccme sa.t. *
