Governor of Oahu and Maui.
Mr.. Fisher then explained several
points in the correspondence, and
asked the members to think seriously
before deciding to form company
as they could do nothing unless they
were determined to hold together.
He hoped they would have an
armory and meeting room, and all
recruits must expect hard solid work.
He asked the gentlemen present not
to vote unless they, would pledge
themselves to attend at least seven
ty five per cent. of the meetings and
drills.
The following officers were elected
to act until the adoption of a con-
stitution and bylaws: President,
Mr.. Simmons; Vice-President, Mr..
w. II. Aldrich; Secretary, Mr..
Frank Godfrey; Treasurer, Mr.. w.
NJ. Giffard; Committee to prepare
bylaws and constitution, Messrs. j.
II. Fisher. w. Unger, j. Monsarrat,
w. ii. Aldrich and j. Simonson,
Jr.; Drill Instructors, Messrs.
Fisher, Unger and Aldrich.
Several interesting discussions
took place between the various men,
bers, and the hest methods of fur
thering their ideas were fully venti-
lated.
An assessment of half u dollar
upon each member was agreed upon,
and it was decided that the next
meeting should be called by the
chairman, the secretary to notify the
members, in writing, of the date
and place of the meeting.
The committee on bylaws and
constitution promised to proceed
promptly with their business, and
the inducement of little instruction
in the "goose step" was held on
to those who should be late in their
attendance at the next meeting.

THE Marine National Bank, Of New
York city, has closed its doors, and imme-
diately following was the suspension Of the
firm Of Grant & Ward, brokers. The cap
ital Of this bank is $4,000 and it owes
abeut S5,OOO,OOO to depositors. Jas. d.
Fish, its president, was a silent partner in
the firm Of Grant & Ward General
Grant is a special partner in the same firm
and two of his sons are active partners.
This firm have made an assignment for the
benefit Of their creditors. Their indebted
ness amounts to about S1OOOO,OOO. Heavy
speculations in real estate are said to be the
cause Of their failure The trouble with
the Marine Bank was Over-certifying to the
amount Of seven hundred and fifty thous-
and dollars, checks drawn on it by the firm
Of spectators. This bank sought to obtain
loan Of S50OOOO from one Of the San
Francisco banks a few days before its fail
ure, hoping thereby to tide itself over the
present trouble, but failing to procure the
desired loan had to close its doors. These
failures, especially that Of the Marine
Bank had a very peroeptible influence on
stock values. causing an almost general
shrinkage. Ex-President Grant loses all
he has except the $500, 600 given him some
years since by his friends. This fund is
held in trust and cannot be touched The
failure Of this firm is the most stupendous
ever known in this country, ten millions Of
dollars liabilities and scarcely any assets.
That there was fraud and the grandest ras-
eality pacticed nobody doubts, but no one
for a moment suspects either the ex-Presi-
dent or his sons Of being guilty or even
aware Of It. The future viii probably
bring out the rascals, at least It is hoped
that it viii and that they shall receive the
fullest penalty Of the law.

Church LyceuIm.

AT the meeting of the NJ. E. Church
Lyceum on Friday evening last a very
interesting programme was provided
and executed. VIM. H. Baogs Dresid-
cd. The readings of Misses May Prim-
rose ana Minnie Reed were very
interesting and entertaining. Misses

quisite duett, Return of Spring " in a
style highly pleasing to all present. A
very bright and sprightly quartette.
Joys OF Spring" sung by Misses Car
row and Mcdowell and Messrs. PRICE
and HOtiecker was well received. The
enorus singing was under the direction
OF l.. M. Price. OF the three Darties
having referred questions, only one was
present to answer, Mr. Dawson. whose
question was, in what year was the
name Smyrna given to this town.
lie stated that from the best informa-
ton he could gather it was about the
year 1900, the place formerly bein0
called Duck Creek Cross Roads. Per-
sons DOING business here then so dated
their bills and letters. The most inter
estlng feature of the evening was the
reading of very fine essay on the
centenary OF MethOdism" by Miss A lie
+. smith. Miss Smith traced briefly
DuJ IN very chaste language the history
OF the church for the past hundred
years, dwelling with especial force on
the strong grOuad taken by the Christ
mas conference, held at Baltimore
against the use Of liquor as a beverage
The essay throughout was one of force
and merit The attendance was not
what 1t should have been by far. but il
IS more than probable that this will in
crease as the institution becomes more
generally known. These meetings
can be made very entertaining and
highly beneficial, and viii be. if the
church will only take hold of and sun

Clayton Claimed a osir

Clayton is again stirred up bv
claimants of the land on which it is
built. There are two gentlemen here
representing themselves to be the
original Whartenby heirs and rigbtful
claimants, and say that they can estab-
lish their identity and claim bevond a
peradventure; that Mr.. Harris was a
little previous in settling with the
property holders there a few wears AGO.
and that Clayton belongs to them and
not to those now holding invalid deeds
for it. These parties went yesterday
to Dover TO procure counsel it is said.
This case was so thoroughly ventilated
a few years ago, when no less dis
tlngulshed cOuDselors than Reverdy
Johnson and Senator Rayard represent
ed the defense and prosecution respect
lively, that there seems little or no
occasion for alarm on the part of CLAY
ton property holders on account of
these new claimants. They NAV talk
much, but it is very doubtful that they
can accomplish anything.

Woodland Reach

John II. HOffecker has recently laid
out several new streets or avenues at

avenues he has made about one hun
dred and fifty lots the dimensions of
which are about 90 by $50 feet. Mr.
Hoiieczer has made a large plot of
these grounds which Mr. Reybold pro-
poses having Autographed in order to
the better advertisement of this resort
Mr.. Reyb0ld is desirous to sell these
lots to parties who will if possible
build cottages upon them and thus
make Woodland a place for Summer
residence. 1t is the terminus of the
steamer Thomas Qyde's Summer route.
and short and pleasant journey from
Philadelphia. 1t is rumOred that the
Baltimore & Delaware Bay Railroad
will be put in good repair from Claw
ton to this resort before the season
opens. They also propose changing
the curve Of the track at this terminus
Of the road so that passengers NAV be
landed within a few feet of the pavil-
lion. This change will be a decided
convenience to travellers, and NAV be
OF material advantage to its patronage
during the coming Summer.
