DOTS ADVENTURE.
In One Way 1t Was Not Howling Sue
cess, In Another 1t Was.

Uncle Ned was really to blame for it,
though he had not the least thought
OF such thing when he said to Dot,
as she came up with her round music
box under her arm:
"Hello, little Dagol Where's your
monkey"
Now, Dot lives in the city winters,
and knows all about the organ men
and their queer little beasts. She comes
with mamma in summer to the biggest
country town in which mamma herself
was little girl. She had always
thought it would be a fine thing to have
an organ and go about the streets gath
ering pennies. AS Uncle Ned saun-
tered off she grew very thoughtful.
Then her face frightened. She ran
down the garden calling excitedly to
her little sister:
'Mab! Nab! 1 want you! Aunt
Sarah said yesterday you were one per-
feet monkey"
Dot was just turned five, and Nab
three, but the two were almost of n
size, since Dot was mere mite, and
Nab deliciously chubby. When lunch
time came without bringing them,
Grandmother Allen began to fidget, and
wonder what had become of those pre-
cious little dears. AT first Dots man.
ma only laughed, saying:
'They will be here in little while,
bright as a new penny"
But when three o'clock saw them still
away, she too, grew uneasy, and went
to search for them.
So did Uncle Ned, but he chose on
other way. Somehow, he remembered
Dots face as he saw it last. at would
be just like her; she is the most orig
inal little morsel!" he muttered, as he
took his way along the shady streets
to big hotel much frequented by sum
mer visitors.
About the same time Dot was say
mig a little tearfully: Its your fault,
Nab; you're too big. Nobody won't
believe you're my monkey when tell
them so. And you don't hold your
cap out right; you drop it as soon as
they don't put things in it, You ought
to keep holding it till they were sorry
and gave you something"

ARMY REORGANIZATION.
Score ary Of War Lamont's Sug.
gestions to the Congress.
Wants to See the Number of Men Increased
TO 30,0oO-New Notifications Urgently
Needed for the Protection of
Our Harbors.

Agreeably to the requests of Senator
Hawley and Representative Hull, Sec
rotary Lamont has forwarded to the
senate and house. committees on mill
tary affairs a carefully prepared propo-
sition looking to the reorganization OF
the line of the army on modern basis.
In relation to the artillery and infan-
try, the proposition contains the recon-
nepdations of Gen. Miles. With the
suggested bill the secretary sent to the
committees statement showing the
great Importance of army reorganiza-
ton. The war department proposition
provides as follows:
The principal changes worked by the
bill will be the addition of two regi-
ments to the artillery force, and the fill
ing up of the companies and troops
skeletonized during the last adEinistra-
ton.
twill add two majors and two COM
panies to each regiment of infantry,
placing this arm of the service on the
same footing as the cavalry and artil-
lery. Another important proviso is
that, after July 1, 1896, the date on
which the bill is to take effect, all pro-
motions in the line of the army shall be
according to seniority from the next
lower grades in the several arms. This
VIII do away with regimental promo
ton.
That the line of the army shall con-
sist of ten regiments of cavalry, seven
regiments of artillery and 25 regiments
of infantry, and that the total number
Of enlisted men in the army of the
United States, including Indian scouts
and the hospital corps, shall be limited
TO 10000.
In his statement TO the committees,
Secretary Lamont says that the plan of
reorganization submitted contem-
plates no change in the cavalry arm,
beyond the manning of the skeleton
troops and completing the squadron
organization, while the total number of
troopers would remain unchanged.
Of the infantry the secretary says:
This arm must furnish the mass of
any army. The other arms are ac-
cessory and subordinate to the infan-
try. Upon it's tactics the whole super
structure of military operations must
be built. Nearly all the national guart.

and militia are of this arm, and they
have right to expect to see in each
regular infantry regiment model for
their guidance"
He says of the artillery that when
our system of defenses is completed il
will require a total of 29,314 enlisted
men to provide one relief for all the
guns and mortars. On the peace foot
ing the 20 heavy batteries would have
q trifle over 1900 men, every one OF
whom would be trained gunner.
With the maximum strength now
contemplated by the revised statutes
these batteries would have nearly TO-
600 men. By further possible in
crease of the enlisted strength they
could provide between 1900 and 49,
600 men, and in either case the addi-
tional men scattered among the organ.
izations would become quickly trained,
The latter number would provide the
war garrisons first needed for the more
important harbors, and in any event
there would be carefully trained body
of at least 1000 gunners with their Off
GERS to be scattered among the various
Notifications for the training or volun.
teer organizations in peace and as a
nucleus for the garrisons in time of
war.
The total number of separate FORTH
cations projected and partially COM
pleted is little more than 100. In
some harbors there will be one, in
others there viii be ten, twelve and fif.
teen. Not all of these will require
permanent garrisons in time of peace.
The work of instruction will be car
ried on in the larger Notifications,
while attachments sent out from time
TO time will suffice for the care and
preservation of material in the others.
It is believed that 70 companies of sec
coast artillery will enable this work
to be properly done, but that Is the
minimum number that should be ex
acted to do II.

A Dead Pueblo City.

He had expected to find ruined
house or two, but before his startled
eyes stretched dead city. In great
bend of the stream, and forming huge
amphitheater, the cliffs rose glittering
and dazzling white 100 feet or more,
when the stone changed to a soft gray
brown, and went up as high again.
Just where the white and brown rock
met at the deepest part of the bend,
colossal bite had been taken out of
the face of the cliff, forming great
cave. In this space a people, now gone,
leaving no record but these silent ruins,
had built most curious and remark
able structure, over five stories high,
receding one above the other, until
the upper story was far within the
shadow of the cave. This was plainly
the citadel, or great communal house;
for on both sides. following the curve
of the white cliff were the windows
and doorways of ipnumerable cave
dwellers, followed from the soft tufa
of which it was composed. The central
building might have been made only
few years ago by some of Honanis
own people, so fresh and new it seemed;
but both it's position and the caves
told of time long ago, when, without
doubt, this was the home of numerous
and prosperous people. In the great
bend of the stream had been their
fields, and high up, secure from dangers,
they had lived, loved aud died.-F. 81.

PAWTUXET VALLEY.
The Village Of Anthony Leads With the
First Flag Raising.

The first flag raising of the campaign
took place last evening at "Knotty
Oak, near Anthony. Within ten minutes
after the announcement OF the nomina-
tions was known In the valley a McKin.
ley and Hobart banner was thrown TO
the breeze by James Ray amidst the
glare OF red fire, the music OF the Quid-
nick band and tue cheers OF nearly
thousanu.people.
Mr.. Ray is solid Mckinley man, and
ever since the opening of the convention
he has been hustling around and making
arrangements for the flag raising. SO sure
was he OF the Majors nomination that
he had his name emblazoned on the nag
early in the week and secured the sexvt-
ces OF the Quidnick Band over two weeks
ego to give the candidates q rousing
send OIL. Early In the evening the crowd
began to gather but as no news had been
received In regard TO the nominations q
feeling OF doubt seemed to pervnde the
bly, with the exception OF Mr.. Ray,
who hustled around making the final arr
rangements for the celebration OF what he
felt, and was willing to bet, would be
the inevitable result OF the baIloting.
The bond arrived in O car which had
been chartered for their transportation by
Mr.. Ray, and shorsly after o'clock the
news of the nominations was received. IL

ner, large American flag, 15 by 25 feet
with the name of the next President on
the bottom, was thrown to the breeze
with the boomi; of cannon, the
burning Of colored fires and the music
of the band, which was nearly drowned
by the cheers of the crowd. The
flag was unfurled by Ray V. Holloway,
probably the youngest Repu blican in the
assembly, who performed the ceremony
while held in the arms OF his grand
father. After the flag had been unfurled
the crowd strolled about the grounds,
which were illuminated by strings OF
Japanese lanterns, and listened TO
speeches by Rev. Benjamin Moon and X.
A. Cosgrove.
Durilg the evening Mr.. Ray treated al
comers to ice cream and cigars ana the
band disooursed music from the verands
of Mr.. Rays residence.
The jollification lasted until nearly IL
o'clock, when the crowd dispersed with
three hearty cheers for Mckinley and
Hobart and three more and Tiger for
"Jim" Ray.

Market Affected by the Pres
idential Nomination.
1t Is Believed That Cammack Is at
Work In London Market.
Special to The News

NEW YORK, June 19.-The comparative
small vote polled blythe silvertes shows a
lack of formidablsness that portends the
annihilation of the white metallists
should they organize an opposing party
under Teller. 10 all jntents and purposes
the silver men are routed "borse, foot
and drngoons." 1t Is surmised that Cam
mack is at work in the London market.
His published statements have called for
much adverse criticism, and while his
views do not alarm, they may tend to
restrict operations of a bullish character.
1t is tor this reason that Photographic
picture of the exact situation will appear
within AS hours in the English papers.
j. p. Morgan is confident that on sober
second thought England in particular
and the Continent In general Will turn
buyers of our stocks, and that on the re-
bound Reading issues, Northern Pacific,
Southern Railway preferred, New York
Central, st. Paul, Louisville 81 Nashville
and Erie will reach very materially higher
prices. AS before mentioned, stocks are
receiving tangible support on liberia
buying ecale. Keene is simply waitinl
to see how Europe accepts the foreign
policy plank in the adopted platform.
The nom mination of Mckinley was re-
ceived abroad whence cables this morn
ing came strong. Louisville q Nashville
are equal to 81 rs, foreigners will buy 10
TO 20 thousand shares in all, taking equal
amounts of St.. Paul and Louisville &
Nashville.
The stockholder says today, "The gold
victory will not at once remove all the
unfavora BILE factors in the situation, but
will pretty effectually remove much ap-
prehension as to the strength of the
s;lverites in the moro populous states, and
IL can hardly fail to stimulate confidence
both In financial and commercial circles.
Hence for the present covering of stocks
and buying OF good stock for long ac-
count would seem to be advisable. The
powers..tbat be will not permit any seri-
Gus decentralization TO take place in the
market. The program now outlined is TO
prevent any formidable bearish demon
stration either here or in London"
The Liverpool Cotton market report for
