"Camp Birs."

Last Saturday night Gen. T. E. G. Ransom Post, No. G, G. A. R., in conjunction with Camp Grant, No. I, Division of Arizona. Sons of Veterans, rave "camp fire" at the c. A. R. Hall in honor of Comrade Vim. Grif- fin and son, who we're about to depart for California.
 At about 8 o'clock the old vets and the young soldiers began to arrive and in short time the hall had quite an audience, composed of the two orders. Quartermaster Hoxworth, Of Ransom Post, was master of cere. monies, and in few minutes a table was spread and the guests invited to sit down and partake of the repas,, which was served in the old arm, style of twenty years ago, consisting of coffee, pork and beans, crackers, salt, pepper and vinegar, to add zest to the meal. 4 CHAMPION represen. tatiye was present, and, although Il may be wrong, proposes from this on to give the whole affair away.
 Some of the boys actually ate at leas: three plates of beans, nine big crackers, drank fout cups (big tin ones tool of coffee and used pepper and vinegar ad libitum. On an ad. joining table was large box contain ing smoking toblcco and clay pipes, to which, after finishing their pork and beans, they repaired, filled up the pipe Of peace and sat down to dis. cIss the situation in the old times when no gray hairs and wrinkles were visible on them.
 One by one incidents of the late war were related by members of Ran som Post. Some comrade would re. late a personal tale of something that occurred at the blttIe of Aateetam. Another an incident of the seize 0, Vtcksburg; third. something about the battle Of Gettysburg, and follow. ing would come a narrative oi how gallantly the Shiloh engagement was conducted.
 Then one, with some laughable in. cident of army life, and not to be ouidone, had to tell story ot how, when they had been with put money for months, subslsting only on army rations straight, a sutler had core Tn. 10 camp. and. without purse or script. they had managed to get some of his pies, cakes, etc. Thus story foilow- ed story until eleven o'clock came, when the old boys thought it about tine to sound tatoo, whicn was done, and as they shook hands and bid each other good night each expressed the hope that they might meet again al many another "camp fire" of Ransom Post.

THE GROWING COTTON.
Unfavorabie Reports from the Dis
trict of Memphis.


MEMPHIS, TENN, Sept. THE regu-
lar monthly cotton crop reports of the
Memphis district, which embraces West
Tennessee, North Mississippi, North Ar
kansas and North Alabama, to be pub
lshed tomorrow by Hill, Fontaine q
Co., will say: "Tne weather during Au-
gust has not been the most favorable to
cotton, although large majority OF our
cores 2ondents report it much more IA
vOrable than last June. The wet weather
which prevailed in June left the plant in
poor condition to Withstand the drought,
and the warm, dry weather, which ex-
tended from early in June to about the
middle OF August caused material she'd
ding, and there IS general complaint OF
injury to the plant throughout the entire
district from this cause, together with
rust, which Is also generally complained
OF, except in Mississippi, where the out
come of the crop is noted most favorably.
Seasonable showers fell during the last
two weeks OF August, and there has been
marked improvement In the crop since
then. The plant is reported as being
unusually heavily fruited, and in
majority of cases is retaining It's
squares and bolls. or $40 responses, 22G
report the crop in better condition than
last year, which is fair indication
OF bright prospects for full average
yield. Picking has begun in some few
localities, but 1t will not become general
throughout the district until about Sept.
Is. Notwithstanding the damage, the re-
port indications are that, with Ialr sea-
son, the yield of this district will exceed
those OF the past three years."

THE LAND sLIDE HYPOTHESIS.
Prof. McGee's Discussion OF the Pro-
babIe Cause fthe Earthquake.

Prof McGee's Discussion OF the Pro-
babIc Cause fthe Earthquake.
Prof. w. j. MCGEE, OF the United States
Geological Survey, was asked If he could
say anything about the intensity or
direction of the great wave OF Tues
day night. He reyiied: We can
say with a good deal OF confidence
that the axis OF the principal motion is
very nearly north and south-perhaps a
little west of north. There are, however,
some eccentricities in the phenomena, IN
dicating that some, at least, of the undu-
lntlons have travelled in d iiferent dlrec-
tion--perhaps sOuth-southwest or south
west. l may add that here IN Charleston
the vibrations have evidently be to a
large extent horizontal, the vertical COM
ponent being slight and accordingly the
angle OF emergence, as 1t is called by
seismologists, IL low. Up at summer
vile, on the contrary, we found that the
motion has been vertical aud the lateral
component has been slight, causing the
angle of emergence to he large"
Prof McGee was also asked IL he had
any theory 10 explain That difference Of ac-
ton. He said YES; but have some hesi-
tatlon as to expressing it. Although we
have been collecting data here as rapidly
as possible ever since our arrival, we have
not yet been able To commence TO digest
the matter so collected, nor have we been
able to combine the observations made
here at Charleston with those made else
where by other observers. This earth
quake covered an immense area, and oh
servatons are gtlll coming in from various
points. | would say that the observations
made here are not a sufficient basis by
themselves to form any hypothesis as 10
the origin Of the earthquake. Neverthe-
less, these observations nave. been sufii.

telegram confirming the press dispatches
announcing the surrender OF Geronimo
was received at the War Department this
morning from Gen. o. o. Howard: Fort
Mason, San Francisco, Sept. ITO the
Adjutant General, United states Army,
Washington, u. c: Gen. Miles has re-
turned to Fort Bowie with Natchez, son
OF Cochise, Geronimo and his brother,
with three other Apaches, all as prison
ers. The surrender Is unconditional.
Capt. Lawton Is following wit the re-
mainder of the hostiles. thirty-slx ADULTS
and three children in all"
CAUSES GRATIFICATIoN.
General satisfaction was expressed at
the War Department upon the receipt OF
the news of Geronimo sisurrender. Great
praise is bestowed upon Gen. Miles Tor
his excellent conduct of the campaign,
but Gen. Crooks work is not forgotten.
1t is said that the results of Gen. Crooks
campaign were OF great value to Gen.
Miles, and the latter has substantially
followed the plan OF his predecessor.
With increased forces IL has been possl-
BILE 10 guard every water hole and effectu-
ally defeat any attempt OF the hostiles to
return to their reservation. Gen. Drum,
Acting Secretary OF War, was In good
spirits after the receipt of the official dis
patch confirming the press report OF the
surrender.
THE END OF THE WAR.
He said that this was the end OF the
war. and that Gen. Miles deserved credit.
Can't. Lawton had also distinguished him
sell as gallant officer, and bis pursuit OF
the hOstIles under adverse conditions and
hardsnips was thoroughly commendable.
The Acting Secretary was not prepared
to say what disposition would be made Of
the captives, but certainly, he said, moth
ing would be done in the matter until the
Presidents wishes were known. Other
officers of the department were especially
gratitied on learning OF the surren-
der. The opinion prevails In
some quarters that the Indians
will be transferred to the custody of the
Interior Department for time,
and that Geronimo and his lieuten-
ants will ultimately be surrendered to the
civil authorities OF Arizona and put on
trial for murder. An officer OF nigh rank,
however, inclines TO the belief that the
Preside will never consent to surrender
Geronimo to the civil authorities, but
will order his trial by court-martial, If 1t
should be regarded as proper to try him
at all
