Military Notes.

There was meeting of delegates from
the Portland companies at Major Collins
room at the armory, for the purpose of
organizing q on-oommissioned officers
association.
This an important step in military ad-
vancement and in line with the effective
work done by Massachusetts regiments.
Much devolves upon the non-commis-
stoned officers at the annual enoamp-
ments, and increased efficiency of these
men means much better work by the
regiment.
After temporary organization the
following committee was elected to draft
s constitution and bylaws to he pre-
sented to the full meeting to be called
March 3rd: Sergeants Tolan ana Lang
and Corp. Lidbaok.
The mem bership of this association
will be about fifty. Guardmounting and
company drill viii be studied. The COM
manding officers of the local companies,
and Major Collins are much interested in
this movement. and will deliver adj
dresEes and give instructions upon duties
of these officers.
A vote of thanks was extended to
Major Collins for the use of his rooms
and for his personal efforts in getting the
association started
All these improvement mean that Port
land will send crack battalion to this
years. encampment.
The Signal Corps held their regular
weekly drill last evening under Sergeant
Herrick. R
Lieut.. Butler is getting along much
better than anticipated and will probably
save the sight of beth eyes, one being
now out Of danger.
With the approach of Spring the
question of new range is being sharply
agitated. The present rage at Stroud
water Is entirely inadequate for the five
local companies, and 1t is understood
chat Col. Harrington is looking about for
suitable site for new range.

Andrews of Special Agent ssSmith's staff
seizedsa horse Monday night that came
through the Provinces and entered the

imported him intervenes and shows con-
clusively that his figures were right, the
animal will be sold.by the collector of
