CAPT. WHITE Will QUIT
COMPANY b WILL LOSE ITS COM
MANDER.
The Officer Dissatisfied With the Mem
bers of the Organization-Small At
tendance at Drills and Parades.

The faithful members of Company j
are discussing an important matter
these days. They have learned of the
intention of their captain, Oscar
White, to retire from his command
next month and grave fears are enter
tanned whether b Company VIII live if
such should come to pass.
Capt. White has become discouraged
with the attendance at drills and pub
lie parades. There was time during
his regime that Company was the
banner company in parade drills, tar
get shooting and military tactics. Now
the regular drills to allow Captain
White to put his men through the pla-
toon movements.
Upon his return from a trip abroad
Capt. White found his company in bad
circumstances financially, as a result
of touch of dramatic life, but a de-
termined effort on his part and this
embarrassment was obliterated. 1t
was thought by majority of Com
pany b men that it would be smooth
sailing for the company to attain its
former general efficiency again.
But not so. Capt. White, so it is
understood, has become dissatisfied
with the dilatory attitude assumed by
number of the members in respect
to turning out to drill and will posi-
lively refuse to run for the captaincy
another term. His commission will ex-
pire in April.
Capt. White has been identified with
Company b from the first an has al
ways taken the liveliest interest in its
affairs. He has been captain for two
years. He is one of the volunteer cap.
tains who has the ability of maintain.
ing the greatest enthusiasm in mill.
tary affairs among his men, but has al
most given up hope of putting Com.
pany B on it's feet again. He is held
in the highest esteem among military
men and especially the men in his own
company. 1t is quite probable that
the Company B lads will yet rally
around their leader and induce him tc
change his plans.

JAIL THE WAY FROM ITALY TENNIS CLUB TOURNAMENT
THE PRELIMINARY BOUTS HAVE
ALREADY COMMENCED.
The Finals Will BE Played Next We'd
nesday-The Government Band VIII
BE Present to Liven Things.

The drawings for the Pacific Tennis
club tournament now in progress, have
been known. A most excellent system
was adopted, whereby the contest is
the total number of senior members OF
the club, to the winner of the hand
some and costly English Tate racket,
the trophy hung up by Mr.. S. e. Laid
ley, of Australia. The donor is close
friend of Mr.. Tate, the manufacturer
of the racket, and it is a specially man
ufactured racket made under the sup
ervision of Mr.. Tate himself.
There are seven players in the first
round of preliminary players. W. II.
Dickey has been paired with Charles
X. Hyde. The winner of this match
will play Paul de Ia Vergne. Whoever
is successful between these two will
then meet the winner of a match COM
prising L. A. Jones and ID. Howard
Hitchcock, Jr. The player who is
most expert will then contest with the
winner of the c. II. w. Norton and
Harry Waterhouse match.
The winners of the preliminary
games will come in the first round
with the following:
George r. Carter and F. w. Thrum;
George c. Potter and G. p. Wilder; S.
G. Wilder and VIM. II. Coney; Willie
Godfrey and DR.. George Herbert; E.
r. Adams and Robert w. Atkinson; j.
Waterhouse and Walter +. Dilling-
ham. '''-' '..' --.. ..-.
Mr., Hitchcock will lose his match
with Mr.. Jones by default, he being in
Hilo. The absence of Mr.. Thrum will
give Mr.. Carter his match. 1t is quite
likely that DIR. Herbert will not par
ticipate, thus giving the match to Mr..
Godfrey.
The match between Messrs. Norton
and Waterhouse win be very interest
ing, as the former is steady player
and the latter has the advantage of n
long reach. Those who have been
watching the games at the Pacific
Tennis club courts lately say that the
players who will likely try conclusions
for the championship are Mr.. Hyde,
Mr.. Godfrey, Mr. Dillingham; and Mr..
| Norton. Sam Wider is handicapped
with bruised knee. Mr.. Dillingham's
injured hand may prevent him from
taking part.
The preliminary bouts have already
begun. Hyde bested Dickey in the
! first match. The finals will be played
on next Wednesday-Ladies' Day
when an enjoyable time will be had
on the courts. The Government band
will play on the Executive grounds
and tea will be poured by the ladies.

WOMAN DOCTOR WANTS TO RE-
SIDE ON MOLOKAI.
viii BE Satisfied to Put in the Re
mainder of Her Days Relieving the
Distress of the Unfortunate Lepers.

United States Consul General Mills
is in receipt of an interesting letter
from a woman doctor residing in Italy
who asks that he exert his influence in
getting the officials of the Hawaiian
Government to permit her to come
among the lepers residing on the
island of Molokai.
She is Alice b. Brill, NJ. d., an Amer
lean, and her references are Whitby d
Company, the bankers. She says that
she would be perfectly satisfied if she
could put in the remainder of her
natural days among the lepers, espec-
tally those of her own sex, doing deeds
of Kindness and relieving them of as
much suffering as possible. She asks
for no remuneration for her services,
simple board and lodging being quite
sufficient.
DR.. Alice Brill says she is a physi-
clan, a graduate of the Woman's Med
ical college of the New York Infrmary
class of 70. She has also studied in
Paris and Vienna. She speaks the
French, German, Italian and English
languages. DR.. Brill also adds that
she can forward from New York all
the necessary credentials.
Il have no fads in regard to treat
ment of leprosy," she writes ''and
would chiefly rely upon my common
sense, powers of scientific observation
and general skill to help me 10 the
proper thing for the poor unfortunate
PATIENTS
In conclusion she states: 81 am well
aware of the primitive mode of life at
Molokai and will be satisfied with it,
for surely it offers the ordinary neces-
saries of life. Should my request be
granted, ! will come to your chores
with the full realization of the nature
of the work | wish to undertake, trust
ing that the love of God and for hu
manity will uphold me in my efforts
to do my duty.

PROCEEDINGS IN BOTH HOUSES REPORTED
Secretary Gage Sent in Estimates of
Appropriations Necessary for Fis-
cal Year of lSe9-In Excess of
Those for 1898.

| Washington, Dec. 6.-At noon to day,
Speaker Reed in the house, and Vice
President Hobart in the senate, dropped
their gavels and called to order the bodies
over which they preside. AS is usual on
such occasions, the reserved galleries
were carefully guarded, admission being
only by card, and the public had great
deal of difficulty in wedging itself into the
space reserved for it.
| In the senate in the opening prayer

made touching reference to sour be-
loved president, who awaited news from
the bedside of his mother to whom he is
devoted, and prayed that she might have

Seventy-seven senators responded to
their names on roll call.
Senators Allison and German were ap-
pointed to notify the president that the
senate was in session, and the senate took
recess until O'Clock.
At 80 p. m. the senate assembled and
Senators German and Allison reported
that the president would communicate to
congress in writing. The presidents

IN THE HOUSE.
In the house Rev. Charles A. Berry of
Weaverhampton, England, delivered the
invocation which was solemn and i'm
pressive. The roll call showed the pres
ence of 30l members. Credentials of
five new members elect were ready and
the speaker administered the oath of Of
foe to them.
Cong,essmen Dingley, Grosvernor and
Bailey were appointed as a committee to
wait on the president.
At 40 after recess, the committee re-
ported and the presidents message was
read.
ESTIMATE OF APPROPRIATIONS.
Washington, Dec. 6.-Secretary Gage
today transmitted to congress estimates
of the appropriations required for the
service of the fiscal year ending June 30,
1899, as furnished by the several execu-
tive departments. The total amount
called for is 1852, 1856, about $32,onO,-
600 in excess of the appropriations for
1898, including deficiencies and miscel-
laneous, and about $4l 100000 more than
estimates for 1898.
Santa Fe daily New Mexican., 1897-12-06

600 required to qualify him as a bidder
and to bid at the sales sum at least
equal to the principal of the debt of the
government.
He suggests, however, that in a mat
ter 30 important as the government be-
coming the possible owner of railroad,
congress should enact some legislation to
define Its views. 1t is clear to him, how
ever, that the government should not
permit the property to be sold at price
less than half the principal of its debt
and less than a fifth of its ''entiresdebt,
principal and interest.
The Civil Service system.
The president devotes the last chapter
of his message to the civil service, the
practical mprovement of which, he says,
has long been the sub ieot of earnest dis
oussion, and which has of late years re-
ceived increasing,legislative and executive
approval. During the past few months
the servicejshas. been. placed upon still
firmer basis of business methods and
personal merit. While the right of de-
servinglveteran soldiers to reinstatement
has been asserted, dismissal for merely
political reasons has been carefully guard
ed against examinations have been i'm
proved and methodical and distinct ad
vance has been made by givingse hearing
before dismissal upon all cases where in
competence is charged OF demand is
made for a removal of officials. This last
has been done without impeaching the
power of removal-one of the vital safe
guards of the system.
Much remains to be done before the
system can be perfected and the president
says that he shall not hesitate to except
cases which he thinks have been improper
ly included in the classified service or in
Guide those which, in his judgment, will
best promote the public service. The
system has the approval of the people
and it will be his endeavor to uphold and
extend it.
Economy Recommended.
In conclusion, the president admonishes
congress not to encourage an increase of
the estimates for the maintenance of the
government They would admit of de-
crease in many branches and it is COM
manding duty to keep the appropriations
within the receipts of the government and
thus avoid a deficit.

fence to any political party, but for what
it represented in behalf of my country.

trated. 1 repeatedly advised the Spanish
party not to be intimidated, but make

Brazilian Minister Loses His Life in

A dispatch from Rio Janeiro says: AT
1 O'clock Friday afternoon a soldier of the
Tenth battalion, which constitutes part of
the local garrison, attempted to shoot
President Moraes with a pistol. The presi-
dent was just landing at the marine ar
senal after visiting the steamer on which
Gen. Barbosa, minister of marine, had re-
turned from Bahia.
Bystanders frustrated the attempt, but
Col. Moraes, the presidents nephew, was
slightly wounded in disarming the soldier.
Gen. Bittancour (Gen. Marsedo Barcourt)
secretary of war, then interfered and was
himself stabbed. The wound was so ser
ious that he died soon afterward. The
attack has caused the greatest agitation
throughout the city.
