Hon. c. B. Fosters Death.

A profound gloom was cast over
 the community last evening when it
 was announced that the illness of
 c. B. Foster had resulted fatally. While it was known in the after
 noon that his condition was consid- cred critical, his friends and ac-
 quaintances hoped that the disease might yet yield to the vigorous treat ment of two skillful physicians, who were attending him and that favor able change might occur in his con cition. They were. however, hoping against hope and death resulted about 7:30 o'clock. The announce ment soon spread and words of sor- row for his loss and sympathy for relatives could be heard from every lip. No death that has occurred here for long period has caused more universal expression of sorrow and regret than this. as the deceased was universally loved by all who knew him.
 Deceased was born at Lyons, New York, January ,, 1915, and was in consequence 47 years ? month and II days old at the tune of his death. He came to Arizona in 1871 and has resided ever since in Prescott. He served two terms as member of the Arizona legislature and one term as territorial treasurer. Three brothers, Dewitt, Graham and W. C. Foster and two sisters, Mrs. Levi Bashford and Mrs. Brown have also resided | in the territory. Of these Graham died several years ago in California: Dewitt died only a couple of | months since in the east; Mrs. Brown | still lives in the state of New York. while Wm. C. and Mrs, Bashford re- side in Prescott. The latter was devoted to her brothers and the death of this one, following so soon after that of her brother in New York. is a severe blow to her.
 Deceased was also prominent and active Mason, being a member of Aztlan lodge No. l. of Prescott. and High Priest of Prescott Chapter No. ? and Generalisimo of Ivanhoe Commandery No. 2, both of Prescott also.
 The remains have been embalmed and were removed this afternoon to the residence of MT. and Mrs. l.. Bashford and will be sent to Lyons, New York, to be buried in the fam fly plot.
 MT, W. B. Jones, superintendent of the P. X A. c. railroad, has kindly agreed to to change the train time for Friday.
 The funeral services will be held at the residence os Hon. Levi Bashford 3 o'clock on Friday afternoon, Rev.C. F.Spray officiating and the body will be taken thence to the train. Friends of the deceased and of the family are invited to attend.

Military Affairs.

Official information was received
 at Whipple today ordering the three
 remaining gcompaniesof the Ninth In
 fantry there to join their regiment in New York. and the change will be made not later than the 5th of April.
 At present there are four com panies of the llth Infantry stationed in New York, while the headquerters of that regiment are at Huachuca in Southern Arizona. These com panies have likewise received orders to change and join their regiment in this territory. In view of this last named change being made, General McCook, the commander of the de partment, has telegraphed to Wash ington recommending that the four companies ordered to Arizona take station at Whipple, and also that the band and two companies at Huach- uca be likewise ordered to the north, making Whipple the headquarters of the regiment. Col. DeRussy. who is in command of the 1lth is anxious for a change, and letters received from him recently show a decided preference for Whipple. He is highly spoken of as very agreeable officer and will be welcomed to this section.
 The 10th Cavalry has received or ders to change stations with the lst Cavalry, in which case Arizona loses the colored troops, but gains the ever famous lst, at present in Mon tana.
 The recommendation made by General McCook shows Arizona and particularly the north to have in him a warm and earnest friend. He real izes the vast amount of territory that would be exposed for Indian raids were Whipple to be abolished and four-fifths of the territory left mercilessly victim to Apache war fare. and shows his characteristic fighting qualities in still fighting for the rights of the people of the north.
 If such changes take place as has been recommended by General Me Cook, many thousands of dollars will be outlayed in new buildings and improving old structures at Whip pie. Estimates made on this work a year ago place the amount at S50,- GOO as necessary.
 A conference is going on relative to the non-issuance of spirituous or malt liquors at canteens. If 1t is decided to adopt such a course the military recruit will believe that the city council of Prescott has been getting iii its work on the govern ment that the liquid of this burg is high enough in price and flavor to produce all the fighting qualities necessary.
