Commanders Address.

When the Wisconsin department OF the
Grand Army met In secret session In the
assemblycham Der In the capitol Wednesday
morning, Commander Upham delivered
his address He said he proposed to adj
dress the veterans before him as comrades,
for In this encampment there were neither
colonies nor privates. He then asked,
What constitutes a comradeY An hon
orable discharge and service during the
war Of the rebellion. 1t We greater TO be
a Roman than king. Is it not greater to
BE- comrade than brigadierf Is it
length Ct service that gives out the name
Of contradict"
The commander said the departm M has
betrayed timidity. Yet he did no. mean
that The department of Wisconsin has
never been afraid and never will be afraid !;
but some comrades In this department
have been afraid, and afraid Of What!
That an organization of only $50 shall con
troll over 1000. Does that look reason
able2 1t reminds one of an ant and an
elephant walking across a torty-acre lot,
and the elephant is afraid he will be
crowded. That IS not good sense In the
elephant.
Every post in this department Is Judge
OF its own proceedings within the rules
Ot the u. A. II. The sending out or
unauthorized and unofficial circulars with
only the name of post attached is
repreheusible and not in the interest Of
accord and harmony; but every post has
a right 10 send circular signed by It's
adiutant and post commander when 50
given 10y the post. But no post should al
low its name to be used at the will of any
comrades Of the post, whether it is for
good or evil, and the post should be the
one to discipline the comrades, and not
the department headquarters,
Another element looked gratifying.

Adjutant's Report.

The report of Assistant Adjutant Gray
was read. The following abstracts are
taken from it:
Eight new posts have been organized
since you were installed, March Is, 1891,
viz, ut Hazel Green, North MarceIIon
Florence, Coona Station, Sharon, Fal-
River, Glenwood and Cadott. Post 1873,
at Colfax, has become extinct by volun-
tary surrender Of its charter. The num-
Der Of posts IN the department is 272, d
set gain Of seven for the year.
The membership, Den. 81, 1890, was
1875 and one year later was Ia, 443,
counting 767 on the suspended list not
reported to the adjutant general but in
Guided in the inspector generals report.
The membership Of the department now
IL 3, 649 greater than 1t was five years ago.
The amount expended for charity dur
ing the year WIS So, 457,7l.
1t has been suggested and is considered
worthy Of submission to this enCmpment
that In sparsely settled districts posts es
tablish plckets where three OF four cCm-
rades reside too far away to attend Its
meetings regularly; that a sergeant of
each picket be appointed by the post
commander, through whom the picket
may report to the post its returns and
make calls TOR supplies, aid, etc. A large
number of those desiring the comradesbip
of the order who are only kept out by
reason of their distance from any post
would thus be mustered into the ranks.
These comrades of the pickets could meet
with the post once each year and be de-
tailed to observe memorial day and attend
to the burial of comrades In their various
localities.

The Waupaca Home.

One of the most interesting reports cf
the entire session was that submitted by
Hon, ]. HI. Woodnorth, one of the trust
ees Of the WaupaCa home. This report
set forth that the home was never In more
prosperous condition, but it had been
discovered that the s. per week per in
mate paid by the state was not adequate
TO support the institution with needed
-epairs and the outlay on buildings. 1t
is proposed to ask the Legislature for a
contingent fund which can be used for
these purposes. During the year there
was spent on permanent improvements
$25, 900 of the $50, 900 appropriated by the
Legislature of 1891.
Regarding the rumors of trouble at the
home the trustees ask any one who thinks
the inmates are not well treated to make
a personal irveSG gation.
The Woman 5 Relief corps is found TO
De q most valuable auxiliary In the work
at the home. 1t mas furnished carpets
for cottages and has constructed and COM
pietely furnished chapel at a cost of
So, $50.
The home has received much praise
from those who have visited there. For
instance. Gen. W. Ayeril, inspector of
state and national homes, says Of it: L
find no home IN the United States better
managed or where 50 few mistakes have
been made in the general comfort and
convenience, or where there is more to
show for money expended than at Wau-
paca."
Mr.. Woodnorth said: Such endorse
ment from those so competent 10 Judge
is very pleasing to us and hardly agrees
with statements made one year ago. OF
the many cruel things said of Us and our
home at that time you are well aware,
out IN almost every instance they came
from source that knew nothing of our
nome and from those who never saw 1t.
We will say to them as did He whom the
Good Book tells US about, Forgive
them for they know not what they do -

SAN Francisco, March l4.-Rear Adj
mira Belknap. who arrived from Yoke
hama on the Oceanic today, was inter
viewed today by an Associated press
reporter concerning the Hetheringon
tragedy, but refused to express an opinion
as to the business of HetheringtCn' act
The admiral intimated that public opinion
in Yokohama was not all against Hether-
ington When asked for n copy of
the letter written him 10y Robinson
just before the latter's death, the admiral
said the original was in the hands of
Hetherington counsel and copy had
been forwarded to the department at
Washington. The letter neither denied
nor affirmed the charges made by Hether-
ington but merely expressed forgiveness
for the ieutenant's foolish act The
admiral closed his interview 10y remark
ing, Hetherington will never be con-
victed of murder.

will Never be Convicted of
Murder.

YOKOHAMA, March l4.-The inquest ON
the remains of Geore Cover Robinson.
killed February IS by Lieut.. J. H. Hether
ingtOn, of the Uniled States steamer
Marion, resulted in verdict cf willful
murder.
Before death Robinson caused a letter
to written to Admiral Belknap. He ex-
pressed pardon for Hetherington ,css.
and requested that the utmost possible
leniency be shown in dealing with the
case. Robinson's funeral. February %.
was attended by majority of the leading
residents, the foreign diplomatic corps
being we'll represented,
Hetheril gton is understood to have
d cen removed from the Marion to the
United States consulate. The coroner's
jury which heard the evidence was COM
posed of three foreign residents named A.
Leprevost, George Allcock and I. H.
Box. The former, IN communication to
the Japan Mail said he did not personally
accept all the conclusions reached in the
verdict from the fact that the evidence as
to Hetherington S identity was Of flimsy
and irregular nature" But he signed
the paper, being aware that any verdict
could accomplish nothing in legal
sense.
There is no truth in the statement pub
is1ed that Mrs Hetherington attended IL
dinner the night of the shooting. She
went tC her husband as soon as she heard
of the tragedy.
