The establishment of the color lino in the West Point summer encampment reeently gave rise to a good story on the commandant of cadets, Colonel Samuel Mills. The regulations prescribe that everyoiis crossing the color line or passing the colors should salute by lifting his cap with the right hand and placing it upon his left shoulder. Colonel Mills neglected this important ceremony not long ago and the sentry on duty promptly stopped him and compelled him to obey the regulation. The commandant next day sent fot this cadet, a third class man, who, by the way, comes from Indiana, and talked to him long and earnestly. Tha young man refused to divalge the substance of tne interview, but tbe general opinión is that the cadet wijl be given corporal's chevrons in tin fa 11, when sianges are rnade in che oíflcers of the üattalion.
