Some discussion arose as to the future
financial management OF the regiment,
and it was developed that, calculating
upon the above basis, thore would Dc o aeo
felt in the funds of the regiment OF Sl.ZVo
the coming year. In view OF this Captain
George Wayne Anderson offered a resolu-
ton that the management or the regl-
ment be continued upon the suppositlOn
that the regiment will continue TO grow
in numbers and the expense DO proViueu
for, and that under no circumstances
should the number of the regiment DC d.
Vanished because of the anticipated in-
adeauacy of the income Of the organiza-
ton TO meet its increasing expenses
should il continue TO grow.
The resolution was adopted.
Captain BossieuX offered the following
resolution. which was adopted:
Resolred, That the finances OF this regi-
ment be entrusted TO an e4ecu tive com,
mittee consisting OF three field ofhcers and
the commanding officer OF each COMPANY

THE ENCAMPMENT.
Captain Anderson reported favorably re-
garding the inspection OF the camping
ground at Ocean View. Some details
touching TO the encampment were DIS
cussed and the board adjourned:
There will be an assembly of the regi-
ment in the Armory next Thursday nlght
to determine exactly how many men Will
20 upon the trip.
Next Sunday will find tho happy boys of
the First Regiment of Infantry in their
tents at Ocean View reading SUNDAY
school papers and singing hymns. The
regiment will leave for Ocean View next
Saturday night, the 18th of August, to en-
camp for one week. AS the cost 10 80
small-only $6-most every member OF the
regiment whose boss" Will let him have
weeks holiday will take in the trp. IL
is supposed that Captain Frank Cunning
nam will reorganize his Mana gang OK
Sons of Unrest. If he does so, 10 poor
recruit. One Of the lieutenants OF the
regiment has made cannon, drilled from
a piece of steel, which VIII be fired morn
ing and evening.
IL will be a sad sight to see those un-
happy boys, who will escort the happy
ones TO the train, trudging up Broad street
hill after the train has gone. Poor boys
Their bosses would not let them on, or else
their purses were depleted. 80,
The Fourth Regiment of Infantry Will
pass through the city TO-DAY about A. NJ.
homeward bound from weeks encamp-
ment at the White Sulphur Springs, w.
Va. The Petersburg Grays, who are Com
pany G. of the regiment, will be given
breakfast by the Soldiers Club.of tho First
Regiment at the Armory.
There was nothing of much interest at
the Armory last week except encampment
plots" and the meeting OF the Soldiers
Club Thursday night. Colonies Jones,
HAYES. and Phillips, Major Kuyk, and
Captaips Tenant and Gasser have been
elected honorary members of the organi-
cation. which Is now in most fourishing
condition.
1t is hoped that the merchants who have
in their employment men who are NOM
beers of tho regiment will let them have
the weeks holiday August II to 18th.
