HAD A GOOD TINE ALL ROUND.
Company E Celebrates Its Recen
Trophy Victory.
An Evening of Social Enjoyment, in
Which Victors and Vanquished
All Joined.

Company E, Second Infantry, N. G..
c., last evening celebrated in befitting
manner its victory over Company A at a
shooting match which took place on the
11th of last month.
After short drill the members of the
company, together with number of in
vited guests, repaired to the armory of
Company a, where hard times banquet
was successfully and speedily disposed
of.
After the many good things were favor
ably discussed by those present the as
semblage was addressed by Colonel
Guthrie, Captain H. l. Seymour, Captain
a. J. Lloyd, ex-Captain p. j. Glas, Lieu
tenant Schmeiser, Sergeant Bessey and
Sergeant g. w. Johnson and Private j.
l.. Hughes of Company E.
Corporal A. e. Miller of Company Il,
recited in pleasing manner "Spartacus
Address to the Gladiators." The Cor
poral received well-deserved applause.
Songs were rendered by Messrs. Miller
and the Holder Brothers.
Major" j. r. Wells recounted in a
thrilling manner his experience among
the Indians in Montana. The ''Major''
was listened TO with wrapt attention, and
time he described the manner in which
himself and thirteen other persons with
stood the onslaught of about, according
to the speakers narrative of the story
500 Indians.
The Major said that he used the horse
on which he was riding as a shield, and
with a 44-caliber revolver succeeded in
annihilating three of the redskins at one
shot. He also said that he received q
n hxyo -,
contact with flint arrowhead from one
of the Indians bows, but when requested
to exhibit the wound he modestly re-
fused. Upon refusing to do so he was
voted the greatest preyaricator in exist
ence.
Major Wells and Private Hilard of
Company A then favored the assembly
with four-round glove contest, which
was said to be one of the hardest-fought
battles yet witnessed about the armory.
The Major scored decided victory over
his antagonist.
Among those present at the entertain
ment were Colonel Guthrie, Captain Sey-
mour and Lieutenant J. d. Shoemaker of
Company K, Captain Lloyd, First Lieu
tenant W. @. Schmeiser and Second
Lieutenant CIegg of Company A, ex-
Captain z. j. Glas, formerly of Company
a, and Sergeant-Major j. Alexander Of
the Fourth Brigade staff.
The remarks of the various speakers all
related to the good fellowship existing
between Companies A and E, and hopes
were expressed that it will not be long
before the companies will unite again in
spending a pleasant evening, such as
last evening proved to have been.
Cheers were given for the two compa-
MES, after which all departed with the
knowledge that military companies, as
well as other organizations, are capable
of entertaining their guests in beftting
manner.

gan resolution calling for information
relative to the landing of British troops
at Blueields, in Nicaragua. No addi-
tional advices from Nicaragua have been
given out at the State Department to-
day. but there is reason to believe the
President is preparing for vigorous and
unmistakable assertion of the rights of
the United States in Central America,
and that the correspondence will include
matters of later date than the brief report
from Minister Baker of the landing of
British troops. 1t is still hoped the con-
ditions have been misstated and the
troops landed solely to protect the lives
and property of British subjects, instead
of for the purpose of interfering between
Nicaragua and the Mosquito Govern
ment. But there is no disposition to dis
guise the real gravity of the incident, for
although the British often talked of their
rights of protectorate, and even threat
ened, it never in this century came to
pass that British troops have actually
landed in Central America, since the as
sertion Of the Monroe doctrine, to assert
protectorate.

Esuuimau Life.

If Nansen praises the paradisiacal con-
ditiou of the primitive Esquimaus, he
owns that their morality left something
to desire. Their manners and habits
now as then, must be remarkably free
and easy. Half dozen families, larger
or smaller, may huddle together through
the winter in single dark and sitting
hut.
If they wear clothes of any kind, the
dress is so slight as to be quite indistin-
gulshable from utter nakedness. In the
upper and more refined circles the mar
ried couples, with their younger children,
may lie apart beneath the sleeping
benches; otherwise, all are packed pro-
miscuously together. So that the Green
land gentleman of the old school really
did not offer much when he placed every
one OF his wives, with all other contents
of the hovel, at the disposal of any casual
visitor.
With those easy notions as to relations
between the sexes, it followed, naturally,
that the family of any Greenland maiden
thought her highly honored when any
white settler threw the handkerchief to
her, whether he were chief Of post or
merely a common sailor. That growing
intermixture of the races has been tend
ing to their respective deterioration

The Sacramento RECoRD-UNloN is
making as earnest defense of Sacra-
mento from the gibes of interior journals
as if it's defenses were needed. 1t is some
what provoking to have the charge made
that session of Legislature or a con-
vention is essential to the prosperity of a
city, but Sacramento has passed the point
where such aspersions do harm. A city
which does S50,O0O,000 of business annu-
ally and is the second shipping point in
the State is certainly independent of such
questionable sources of profit as con-
ventions and Legislatures. 1t is a ques-
ton if 1t is not misfortune rather than
an advantage TO a city with real indus
tries TO be the capital of a State.-San

GEE GING'S DEATH.

1t Was Probably Due to Congestion of
the Lungs.
An autopsy was held yesterday by DIR.
G. A. White on the body of Gee Cling, the
Chinawoman who was found dead in bed
Wednesday morning. 1t was reported
that she had several hundred dollars, and
it was thought she might have been poi
soned.
DR.. White states in his report that he
found no wounds and only a slight con-
fusion over the left eye. The left lung
was adherent to the chest throughout its
whole length and in state of acute con-
gestion. The right lung was only slightly
congested. The lining of the stomach was
slightly intiamed, but whether from an
irritant poison or not could not be ascer-
tanned Without chemical examination of
the contents. There was no peculiar
odor to the contents of the stomach, and
he was inclined to think she died of con-
gestion of the lungs.

To-day Justice Henry is to hold the

ton Chinaman who is charged with hav-
ing shot and wounded fellow-Celestial
down there during the recent devil-driv-
ing festivities.
1t is not unlikely that serious trouble
will grow out of this affair yet. Last
week, when the case was called, Justice
Henry postponed the hearing in order to
give District Attorney Ryan an opportu-
nifty to investigate charges of intimida-
ton made by both sides.
Last night Chinaman, who claimed to
be cousin" of the complainant. called
at the police station and said word had
been received to the effect that fifteen
heavily armed highbinders would arrive
this morning on the steamer, presumably
to wreak vengeance on those Chinaman
concerned in the prosecution.
Sergeant Plunkett instructed officer
Rutherford to be at the steam boat land
ing when the boat arrived and disarm
and arrest every Chinaman thereon found
with arms on him.

age Bill Opened by sherman.

being Allison's motion to reconsider the

third reading. Harris announced the bill

should not be changed without a vote
Sherman then began a speech on the
bill. He said although there is conf
dence in the money of the United States.
yet the addition of $50, 900, 600, practically
of paper issue, might cause grave appre-
hension. He was occasionally inter-
rupIed by Teller during his remarks.
Sherman, with an ominous frown on
his brow, and speaking IN an earnest and
determined tone, reiterated the hope that
the motion of Senator Allison would pre-
vail, for there was no disposition in his
part of the chamber to defeat the passage
of the bill.
He was followed by Senators Lodge and
Higgins.
The bill went over without action until
tomorrow, when vote will be taken.
The Senate passed the bill for the sale
of unsold portions of the Umatilla Res
ervation, in Oregon.
