SONS OF VETERANS.
News from Various DiViSiOnS-WOrdS
Of Encouragement.
AN IMPORTANT MUSTER.

United States Senator c. X. Davis Initiated
into the Sons of Veterans.
More than usual interest has lately been
manifested by the Sons Of Veterans of st. Paul,
Mimi. The cause of the revived enthusiasm
was the muster into the ranks of st. Paul
Camp 1, of Senator G. K. Davis on the evening
Of Nov. %. At the meeting on that evening
there was much larger attendance than is Gus
tomary, for ID is not often that Camp of Sons
of Veterans musters into its ranks as member
a United States Senator. So, in honor of the
occasion. the boys were out in force. Their
uniforms were brushed to nicer degree Of
neatness than usual their arms had taken on
brighter polish, and there was, perhaps. a
trife more ostentation in the ceremony Of the
initiation.
The Senator was an early arrival at the hall,
but he was required to wait in the ante-roO
nntii the arrival of the time for initiation.
Then, in company with J. p. Lyon, II. b.
Sweet, and John Beissel. who were also candi-
dates for initiation, he was escorted within the
sacred precincts of the hall, where, surrounded
by the sons of men with whom ne fought n the
civil war, Senator c. K. Davis, with his CON-
panions, was formally mustered into the ranks
of the Sons of Veterans. There were present
to witness the ceremony, besides the members
of the Camp, Capt. Mahan, Senior Vice Com
mander of Acker Post. GAR; Maj. Espy;
Capt Bates of Gen. Ord Post, aud Companions
Chlttenuen, CIlHOrd, heuurlcK, ana WOOuS.
Following the initiation Senator Davis adj
dressed the Camp briefly.
After paying a beautiful tribute to the object
which animated the organization of the Order
Of the Sons of Veterans he said:
ut is the purity of local politics which in
sures the stability of Republics. There is no
danger Of corruption. This is a grand. glorious
Republic. The men who barred their breasts
to the bullets and saber-thrusts of hostile
army to preserve its integrity now the lead
ers in caring for that country's welfare. But
the light of their day is waning. and to you
young men, who are just entering upon prom
Using manhood. will soon devolve the response
bility of the Nations affairs, and you must so
conduct yourselves that you will be capable of
carrying out your parts.
"You all know that st. Paul is TO entertain
the National Encampment of the GAR next
Summer, and you must do your share toward
making their meeting here success. You
must attend drills regularly; get all the boys
out at each meeting, and he prepared to give
the old soldiers who fought with your fathers
q right royal welcome to st. Paul"
Capt. Mahan, Maj Espy, Capt. Bates, and
others followed Senator Davis with short adj
dresses of patriotic nature.

Millions of Bushels Hold.

The long-continued low water in the Kama
wha and Ohio Rivers has been very severe upon
the coal operators and miners in the Kanawha
Valley. There are $4,000 bushels of coal in
500 boats and barges lying in the Kanawhs
River pools waiting for q rise sufficient to let
it get out to Cincinnati. Louisville and lower
river markets. There has been no coal boat
watsr in tho Kanawha or Ohio for fully six
months, and the coal men having filed every
barge aud boat available. and having built
many new ones, are now compelled to close
down entirely to wait for water.
Some of the river mines have done nothing
for three months, and but few of them have
produced any coal for several weeks. Inc
tieing up of this coal means the withdrawn OF
thousands of dollars from circulation, and the
effect is seriously felt throughout the region,
especially by the banks.
