THE great fortl1ication on the north
side of the Golden Gate entrance to
the harbor of San Francisco, hereto
fore known as Lime Point, has been
named by President Mckinley and will
hereafter be known as Fort Baker, in
memory of the eloquent and gallant
Col. f.. d. Baker, who fell at Ball 5
Bluff, Va, October 81, 1861, while gal
lantly leading union troops against
overwhelming numbers of the enemy.
Col. Baker was an Englishman by
birth, lawyer by profession, an orator
by nature and soldier by instinct.
He resigned seat in congress from
Illinois to take command of a regi-
ment in the Mexican war, and repre-
scented Oregon in the United States
senate when he fell on the field of
battle.

mt Norfolk.


The Jonnie Juniors and their friends re-
turned from their highly successful trip
this morning. Everything was done by the
Princess Anne and Norfolk folks to in
sure the pleasure of the party, and the
verdict is most favorable. The boys, in the
matter of enjoyment, took Ko Kos advice

a wonder that any of them had voice
enough left to be heard beyond the foot
lights at their performance of the mi
kado' Monday night, but the dry salt air
of Virginia Beach not only enabled them to
give a continuous performance at the Prin-
cess Anne from the time they arrived un-
I'll their departure. but carried them safely
through the opera, which was given in
very creditable style, under Prof. Cloward $
direction, the choruses being as full and
finished as most professional work An
audience of the best people IN that sec

the most generous applause, and in al
most every instance it was fully deserved.

cal press stating that no better inte-pre-
