John Harrington, Edward Harring-
ton, John Myrick, Charles Flasch,
Henry A. Isermann, John Perkins and
John Koehlor went to Russell, H., on a
fishing trip Tuesday. They did not
get home until very late, for the reason,
it is said, that they had to borrow q
number of farmers rigs to bring the
fish home in.
"Going into decline" How often
do we hear this expression. What
does it mean? 1t means that people
are losing flesh, growing thin, wasting.
The way to correct this condition is
to improve the digestion. The condi-
ton arises from an inability to eat and
digest food. In fact food does more
harm than good because it ferments
and putrefes in the stomach, develop
ing poisonous substances which when
absorbed cause various disorders.
What is required is that the stomach
be made to perform it's duties. The
Shaker Digestive Cordial is food al
ready digested and digester of foods
as well. 1t will make the stomach
healthy. Get book from the druggist
and read about it.

The members of the first and second divis

to assemble at the armory, 221a East street, a
halfpast O'Clock next Monday to take par
in the parade, part OF the memorial service
in memory of the Nations dead. Captain
Turner, commanding the naval militia, an
nounces that none but statutory excuses vii
be accepted from absentees aud that fines will
be imposed as provided for by the code. The
divisions will turn out battery.
On Saturday, July. 3, the Camanche will
leave her moorings for her initial cruise in
command of the battalion officers and manned
by members of the battalion. II is expected
that there will be q large attendance, for there
will be much drill of beneficial nature and
the organization will have an opportunity tc
prove its nautical character. 1t is intended
that the cruise shall be within the bay OF Sau
Francisco and its tribu aries and will extend
over Sunday. the 4th, and Monday, which viii
be legal holiday.
An effort will be made to recruit the diyis
ions OF the battalion to the full mem beers nil

Second Brigade,


The inspection of the companies of the First
Infantry, Second Brigade, the signal corps and
Troop are over, and while the official re-
turns are not in, it can be said that with one
or two exceptions, all the companies made a
good showing numerically and that the re-
ports will show that the condition of the sew
eral com panies is much better than 1t was at
the previous inspection.
The First Regiment will On Monday next
(Memorlal day. escort George II. Thomas Post,
u. a. R., TO the Preside and take part in the
ceremonies OF dedication of the monument
that will be unveiled In the post cemetery on
that day.
The signal corps, Captain Perkins, and
Troop A, Captain jerks, and the Naval Bat
talon, Captain Turner, will act as escort 10
the other posts OF the Grand Army that are TO
parade downtown, and proceed TO the Gene
terles and there decorate the graves Of their
comrades who have passed away.
The board of officers of the First have finally
decided that the camp OF that regiment shall
be held on the site short distance out of
Ukiah on W hich there have already been sew
eraI encampments. This choice was made
after number OF sites had been inspected.
The time selected is from August 81 to the
29th, and in the selection of that time the
dates chosen by the Fifth Infantry and the
brigades in the southern part OF the State were
considered. The further TACT that the citizens
OF San Francisco are entitled to have the FRS t
Regiment parade in the City on the Fourth of
July was also taken into consideration.
Now tnat the question OF camp has been
fixed IL is proposed TO recruit the companies
up to as near full strength as possible. 1t is
probable that, exclusive of the band, 500 men
viii go to the camp near Ukiah.
While at camp the members of the First will
practice at silhouette targets, something that
is required by the new regulations but which

Orders Issued for the Memorial
Day Parade and Exercises

The First Infantry Will Go Init
Camp at Ukiah Next August.
The Naval Battalion.

On the 30th of last November the COM
mander-in-chief approved new firing regula-
tons which are TO go into effect on the 30th OF
next June, but up to date the members OF the
guard have not received any orders for target
practice. The new regulations were not OPP
erative and will not be tor five weeks. yet the
old ones we've in force, but not enforced. The
guardsmen feel very much if they had lost
an opportunity TO gain credit as marksmen,
and the chances are that they will not have
an opportunity 10 face the targets until next
September, for the new regulations say that
such practice shall be held in the months OF
January, May, September and October, and at
200, 800 and 500-Yard ranges and skirmish-
firing. The latter firing must be in the month
OF May. There has evidently BEEN blunder
somewhere.
Promptness of action does not mark the
movements of those who are upper grades of
the guard of the State. Last Novem Der there
was an investigation into the affairs of an otf-
Ger named Douglass, connected with the Naval
Battalion. A report was presented to the
proper officials, but as yet no action has been
taken either confirming or disappearing the
report. Another instance is the Gaze OF Cap
tain jerks of Troop A. There was an inyesti-
CANON as to the management or mismanage-
ment OF the affairs OF the company. More than
three mon tbs ago there was presented report
generating the captain, but no Official notice
has yet been given of that TACT. Possibly in
the distant future somebody will rummage
through some pigeon hole, find these reports,
and then some action may be taken on them.

New York, Nov. 15.-A Cuban officer
wrote from Palm Beach. Fla, to a
friend in this city, Nov. s. The letter
was received. today. In part it says:
II have just landed from Cuba and
can tell ycu plainly there is not man
or officer in the whole Cuban army

Spanish offers.
