Regiment. The elective officers of the
corps are: L. E. Edwards, captain !;
George NJ. Lipman, first lieutenant, and ].
A Morgan, second lieutenant.
The camp will be laid out On the picnic
ground in the canyon, and there will be
twenty-five tents, which have been loaned
to the cadets by Major Huber, retired, late
of the Second Artillery. This morning
the advance guard, consisting OF First Ser
geant Evans, Sergeant Cowley, commits
sary; Corporal Bartlett, quartermaster,
and Privates Berry. Mcdonald, Nc
Rowan. Reynolds, Bush and Auerbach will
leave by the II O'Clock train for the camp
site and pitch tents and prepare the camp
for the other cadets, who will follow on
Saturday morning.
The main body will Cross by the ferry
and ride as far as Hayward by steam and
electric cars from Oakland Point, and
from there will march to the camp about
nine miles distant, reaching there in time
for supper, and that night there will not
be any military duty except guard mount.
The cadets will be in service uniform. 1t
is the purpose OF Captain Edwards that
this shall be military camp OF lnstruc-
tion in the strict sense OF that term. The
cadets all understand that and they have
given the officers their hearty and enthu-
siastic approval of the jdea. The plain
has obtained from each of the cadets par
ents written consent that tine bearer
shall report for duty at such time and place
as may be ordered by the proper officers.
The camp Is TO established with the
knowledge and consent OF Lieutenant
Colonel Duboce, who has given the cadets
some excellent advice, and has rendered
them valuable assistance in the prepara-
tion Tor the military outing. He. how
ever, stipulated that no liquor shall be
allowed and no ball cartridges shall be
taken. There will be two physicians to
look after IT, cadets in case of sickness.
Lieutenant Colonel Cuff, division COM
missary, has provided for the cadets so
that they will have all the rations that
they will require The commissary de-
partment will be under the supervision OF
Sergeant Cowley and Corporal Simon.
The cadets Will meet the expenses out of
the $500 yearly allowed by the State. 1t
will be the first time that the com pany
has gone on its own hook for practical
instruction in field duty. The company
has on previous occasions been to a regi-
mental or battalion camp, but this time
being entirely independent, the mem bers
propose to make the venture one that will
rebound not only to their own credit. but
to the credit of the National Guard. After
Sunday there will be drill and full mill
tary routine daily. The camp will be open
to visitors during its continuance, ami
som etime during the encampment Lieu
tenant Colonel Duboce will pay IL visit,
when there will be a drill and inspection.
Professor Morton, principal OF the Lowell
High School, where the cadets have their
armory, is an enthusiastic supporter of
the movement. He has done all in his
power to encourage his pupils in their
undertaking, and he declared that he felt
sure that ii would prove beneficial to the
yoang men from II military as well as
physical standpoint.

NEW LIGHTS FOR VESSELS.

Present System Does Not Give Su fl cient
Insurance Against Collisions.
Increasing speed OF ocean going steam
craft is likely before long to necessitate a
radical change in the character Of sailing
lights, says the New York Times. The
red (port) and green (starboard) side
lights now used on vessels at sea are re-
ouired by the rules OF the road to be visible
Cor two miles on a dark, clear night. The
Nuie was made however, when ten knots
Aas good speed. Now twenty knots is not
'Encommon.
Masthead lights used by steamers must
be visible for five miles on dark, clear
night, but the lookout on another vessel
cannot TIL from the light the direction
in which the vessel carrying it Is steam
ing. To determine, therefore, what course
10 take in order 10 keep clear Of another
vessel the master must depend on tine
side lights, which, as prescribed, under
the most favorable conditions can be
, seen ony two miles distant.y In misty
weather or in moonlight they cannot be
seen so far.
Vessels going in opposite directions at
the rate. OF twenty knots an hour are, of
course, approaching each olher at the rate
of forty knots an hour The time in which
they cover the two miles between the
points OF signing ana OF passing is shown
in the proportion as forty knots is 10 sixty
minutes, TWO miles Is To three minutes
In other words there is only three minutes
in which TO change courses, if that is
necessary, under the most favorable con-
sditions of yisi bill ty.
As the fast vessels are very long, they
seer slowly, and three minutes is but
1ittIe time for action. while, II the neces-
sity occurs IN the more prevalent weather
of moonlight or mist, the time is lessened.

gyet they were unable to get out Of each
Aotber's way.
Y Another difficulty is met in tie case OF
sailing vessels. They carry only side
lights, which are sometimes placed on the
forward rigging and sometimes OH davits

the right of way over a steamer The

The Useful TOoter Was Invented in the
Interest of the Egg Trade.
1t is told that the locomotive whistle
was invented because of the destruction OF
a load of eggs. When loco motives were
first built the country roads were for the
most part crossed at grade and the engine
driver had no way of giving warning of his
approach except by blowing tin horn. The
horn, it may be imagined, was far from
being sufficient warning. One day in the
year 1888 a farmer of Thornton was cross
ing the railroad track on one of the country
roads with great load of eggs and butter.
Just as he came out upon the track train
approached. The engine man blew his
horn Justify, but the farmer did not hear
it. Eighty dozen of eggs and fifty pounds
OF butter were smashed into an indistin-
guisha BILE, unpleasant mass and mingled
with the kindling wood to which the
wagon was reduced. The railway COM
pany had to pay the farmer the value of

Besides the questions of visibility and
position of lights there is another. Inc
sidelight of a vessel is partially boSeu ~
but gives a radius OF vision OF ll21s oe
grees, or from dead ahead to two points
a abaft the beam, there being IN oeerees
TO a point OF the compass The exact ol-
rection of another vessels course cannot
therefore be determined within that ra-
dius.
A French admiral once got up system
of lights in which various coiors were
used. but it was so complicated that 1t
have been rejected for the same reason, or
because of lack of visibility. 1nstantane-
Gus action requires simplicity.
The German Government some time ago
appointed commission to study the visi-
hility OF lights at sea. II was found that
a white light of one-candle power was visi-
bic $500 yards on aclear night in a dark
atmosphere. Ii the weather was misty it
was visible one mile. Three-candIe power
was visible two miles, ten-candIe power
four miles and nineteen-candle power five
miles.
A green light, with glass of pure green,
was visible with 1-candle- power at an
eighth OF mile, 2-candle-power at one
mile, 16-candle- power at2 miles, 5l-candl le-
power al four miles. A red light, with
glass Of pure copper red, showed like re-
suits.
Four miles would be a desirable dis
tance of visibility, but 1O6-cand e-power
would be almost out of the question for
most vessels. AS frequent changes in the
rules of the road in the matter of lights
would add to confusion, any scheme for
improvement must anticipate the most
sanguine estimate of future speed, which
may perhaps be figured at a four-day
journey across the Atlantic. The ques
ton is one that is of interest not alone to
mariners, ship-owners and shippers, but
to ali immigrants and tourists, and,
through these, well-nigh everybody else.
The big ATTAIN ic liners exceed require
ments in the matter of visibility of lights,
while the majority of craft may fall short

VANCOUVER, B. c., March 1.-THE
steamer Empress of India arrived this
morning from the Orient. A new ques-
ton has arisen in regard to the monetary
system, the Ministers of State and other
officials advocating an immediate change
to the gold standard. So far, however, no
official plan has been brought forward,
though it is stated that bill will be sub
mitted to the diet during the present ses-
sion for the proposed change In the cur
rency. Opinions appear to be divided on
the subject, officials generally advocating
the change, while Osaka cotton manuiac-
turers and export merchants generally
are adverse to it.
Business generally remains very slack,
owing to the tightness of money and the
unsettled state OF financial affairs.

BUTLER'S HOPES
SLOWLY FADING
Judge Morrow Declines to
Give Him His Lib
erty.
The Writ of Habeas Corpus Dis.
posed OF in Short Order
Yesterday.
Attorney B ak Will Appeal the Case
10 the Supreme Curt of the
United States.

United States District Judge Morrow,
sitting in the United States Circuit Court,
made short work yesterday morning of
murderer Buffers effort to gain his liberty
on writ of habeas corpus.
The writ was sued out by Attorney
Black, who is doing his utmost to aid
Butler in his efforts to avoid going back to
Australia, on the ground that United
States Marshal Barry Baldwin exceeded
his authority in arrestipg Butler on board
the Swanhilda.
He contended that British ship was
British territory and that it made no
difference whether she was in y foreign
harbor or not. Butler, he contended, was
on British deck and under the British
fag and the Marshal had no right to take
him therefrom. He also claimed that it
was necessary TO prove that the murderer
was fugitive from justice and that this
had not been done.
Judge Morrow's opinion was not a
lengthy one. He merely stated that the
plea was Il most rem arkable one and that
the grounds taken by the counsel were
untenab,e. He stated that. in his opinion,
sufficient evidenc, had been produced to
show that Butler was a fugitive from JUS
tice and that ne had been arrested In ac-
cordance with the extradition treaty ex-
is;ing between this country ana Great
Britain.
The testimony Of Captain Fraser of the
Swanhilda that Butler had asked several
times to be discharged at San Francisco
was sufficient evidence in the Judges
mind to show that the murderer was in
intent "a criminal fleeing from justice
and seeking an asylum IN this couE try"
at would be FOOLISH" Judge Morrow
added, ''to hold that the prisoner at the
bar should be freed merely because he
was arrested on board the Swanhilda, a
British vessel"
He therefore dismissed the application
for the writ aud remanded Butler to the
custody of the Marshal
Unless further steps are taken by But
ler's attorney he will be taken bac!. to
Australia by the next steamer, extradition
papers now being on the way from Wash
ington.
AS the main object seems to be delay it
is probable that an appeal will be taken
from Judge Morrow's decision and time
gained in that manner.
Attorney Black stated yesterday that
such would be his course and that he
would at once prepare the necessary pa
pers.

His food consisted mainly of bread and
raisins. Bread, stepped III hot water and
sprinkled with sugar and nutmeg, which
he called panada, he devoured with avid
ity. Hogg relates, OF period slightly an
terror to this, many amusing inconsisten-
cies. A certain dinner at Shelley's lodg-
ings had been terrible failure. "Never
mind" said Mrs. Shelley. I'VE will have
mullins for tea"
"Muffins!' said Shelley, in tone of
agony, "they Will butter them; but when
they arrived buttered, he devoured the N
with relish.
On another occasion Shelley and Hogg
were al a country inn. Hogg ordered
bacon. Shelley was plunged in grief and
gloom at the thought; but when it ar
rived he rose from his place and plunged
fork into the dish before Hogg.
$50 this is bacon! - said he. "Well, it
is not so bad, after ALL" In few mo-
ments the dish was empty, and Hogg had
eaten little. Another and another dish
was produced until the bacon was ex-
hausted and they left the house. Shelley
graveiy scolded the landlady for not being
better supplied. Thence they hurried
home, and Shelley burst in upon his wife.
reoairing that bacon should be instantly
produced IN lar quantities.
Shelley had some oddities in the way Of
friends. Mr.. Newton was q philosopher

family ate nothing but vegetables and
drank only distilled water. The five chill

each forenoon without any clothes on
nakedizing, as Mr.. Newton called lt-as q
return to primitive innocence. To these
agreeable orgies Shelley was often ad-
mitted.
Hogg relates that he called at the house
one day, and. mstaking him for Shelley,
the five babies came downstairs. just as
they were, to greet him. On seeing a
stranger .'they uttered a piercing cry,
turned around and ran wildly upstairs,
screaming aloud. The stairs presented the
appearance of Jacobs ladder with the
angels ascending it, except that they
moved faster and MADE more noise than
