LIEUT.. ADAIR RESIGNS.
LEFT FORT SAM HOUSTON YEsTER-
DAY AFTERNOON.
Sent His Resignation To The President
And It Was Accepted : Gossip
Of The Post.

President Mckinley has accepted the
resigation of Lieut.. Adair. and he left
this post yesterday afternoon at 4:3O
O'Clock for California, his future home.
The lieutenant's wife and family pre-
ceded him a few weeks ago and are
now at Mrs. Adair's fathers in that
state, where she will be Joined by the
lieutenant Lieutenant Adair stood
third in rank in his regiment, the
Fifth cavalry, for promotion TO a cap
taincy. He was first lieutenant of
troop E, of which Capt. Goldman is
commander. He is a son-in-law of
Capt. DeRudio, of the Seventh caval-
ry, who was stationed here several
months ago and who. is now retired.
The lieutenant advances no reason for
his retirement and gives out no plans
for the future.
The post had an unusual number
of visitors yesterday afternoon.
The post Christian Endeavor society
held an interesting meeting yesterday
afternoon in their hall above the can
teen.
A number of the boys came in from
the target range yesterday TO visit
their sweethearts. Among the num-
Der was Simon Pendleton, the genial
little baseball enthusiast.
Corporal Adam Herch, of troop E,
Fifth cavalry, is to be discharged to-
day, his term of enlistment having eX-
pired. He will re-enlist again to-
however, and take advantage
of four months furlough. Then, in
with Sergeant Carr and Far
rier Chickenger, he will make jour
ney into the Guadalupe mountains to
spend the time hunting and fishing.
There is a rumor going the rounds
Of the post at present that the Fifth
cavalry it TO be transferred to Fort
Meade, Dakota, exchanging with the
Eighth. This makes the boys look Sc
rious when it is metioned and they
begin to talk blankets.
There is hardly a possibility of such
4 change as these rumors are always
afioat. 1t was only a few months ago
when the post was stirred up over the
of being sent to Jefferson
Barracks, st. Louis. 1t is said that the
War department will only change sta
tons of the troops hereafter when
necessary. as the transportation costs
are too heavy to change often.

H0 FOR THE KLONDYKE.
The New Gold Fields Of Alaska-A DreamIand
Of Wealth.

As it is now too late for those who
contemplate going to the Yukon gold
fields of Alaska to start this year, a
company is already being formed to
start early next spIing. A steamer
has been secured and the company will
leave Puget Sound early in the month
OF March, 1898, arriving at the mouth
OF the Yukon river in time to transfer
the party and supplies to a river
steamer, and be ready to 60 up the
river as soon as the lee breaks up.
The company will own its own steamer
and thus be able to go, or stay, when
they like, and be able to land its party
ln the Klondyke country far ahead OF
any other party. Parties Joining the
company and going this way, have
many advantages, and it will not cost
any more than to 20 via Dyea route
and they save 800 miles OF very rough
overland travel. Frank l.. Crambton,
the well'knOwn newspaper man of
Mt. Vernon, Wash, is at the head of
the enterprise, and parties intending
to go to the Yukon gold fields in the
spring should send him ten cents,
money or stamps, for full particulars,
maps, costs and necessary supplies for
one or two years trip.
