By Local TaIent-NOtes.
Colonel j. Paul Peternann, of the Fiftl
Infantry. Michigan National Guard, hal
recommended thefolIowing appointment
on his staff:
COMMISSIONED OFFICERS.
Adjutant-John MacNaughton, Co. ID. Calu
met.
Quarter master-Edward d. Watson, Co. @
Mukegon.
Chaplin-William f. Wright, Co. A, Biz
Rapids.
Surgeon p d. MacNaughton, Co. f, Iron
Mountain.
Assistant Surgeon james A. King. Co. b,
Manistec.
NoN-CoMAussIoNED.
Sergeant Major-Dunbar Scott, Co H. Iron
wood.
Hospital steward-R NJ. wetzel Co. d,
Calumet.
Color sargeant-E. q. Krellwitz, Co. +,
Houghton.
Quarter-master sargeant-James A. Atkin-
son. Co. G. sault Ste. Marie.
In making these recommendation for
appointment the new colonel has recog-
nized every company In the regiment
with one appointment and has chosen
men who are nearly all well known in
militia circles and eminently fitted for
the places. The rank OF adjutant and
quarter-master 10 that Of first lieutenant;
the regimental surgeon, major; and the
chaplin and assistant surgeon, rank as
captain. The other officers are not CON-
missioned and they rank az sargeants on
the staff.
Notwithstand::ss: the fact that Fred NJ,
Chase, OF Three t.:,sers, who was APP
pointed inspector. general Of the National
Guard by Governor Pingree. was pro.
nounced free silver man, the senate con-
frmed the appointed and Colonel Chase
will now take General Wslsh's place. 1t
is very probable that the new inspector
will make his first tour OF the different
companies within few months. Colonel
Chase is well up in military tactics and
his appointment, from that standpoint,
is meeting with approval.

Druin Makes 1t Lively for q Couple
OF Up-to-Date Hunters.
The following is. vouched for by re-
liable citizen of the locality where the
event occurred, near Disco, IL miles
from Back River Falls, Wis, says the
Chicago Chronicle. The farmers had
been annoyed by wolves and one of
them found den that he thought
would hold dozen or more. -Four Of
them went there with a large fish net,
a long tin tube and a double-barreled
gun. They had heard of soaring ami
mails from their den byipltt ting n tube
in the hole and then shouting through
the tube. Two of them held the net
over the mouth of the den and another
stood ready with the gun, while the
fourth one managed the tube. He gave
fearful screech. into funnel fixed in
the end of the tube and after an effort
or two there was rush and growl and
out came back bear as though pos
sessed Of nine demons.
He plunged into the net and the two
men and the bear had merry time.
The with the gun didn't dare shoot,
for he could not tell where there was
the most bear and the least ofSthe men.
The net broke and let his bearship
through and he made for tall timber
at marvellous rate, but the net, men
looked very discouraged and It win be
cold day when they try It over again.
Ihe informant was very reticent
about telling who the men were. but as
he had double limp, his face scratched
and was in the city for new cult, a
everyday clothes ii looked as though
he knew who helped hold the net. ~ 4,

An airship made a fairly successful
ascension and voyage from the expo
sition at Nashville, Tenn, Thursday.
The ship is a cylindrical shaped bal
loon, 16 feet in diameter and AZ feet
long. with rounding ends constructed
of yellow silk. From either end an
Oaken rod reaches down to a bar to
which is attached the light network
surrounding the balloon from the
horizontal bar running lengthwise.
Nickle bars reach to a third bar on
which is fastened a regular bicycle
saddle. Underneath are pedals con-
trolling a 10foot shaft consisting OF
tour blades abOnt four feet long and
shaped like the blade of a windmill.
Hydrogen gas was used. The ascent
was unheralded, as the exhibition
company was uncertain about its
success. The airship moved at the
rate of Is miles an hour. 1t disap.
peared from view while being watched
by thousands of people. A trip OF
2 miles was made in less than an
hour. Mr.. Barnard, the inventor,
who made the trip, says that he has
perfecte ed a machine which will fly
under any conditions.

Col. F. c. Ainsworth of the war de-
partment at Washington and a
Woodstock boy, has compiled some
curious and apparently fairly reliable
statistics of morality among the sur
vivors of the Union armies in the
Civil war. He finds that there are
now 1,095, 62S survivors. This num-
Der will be decreased by about 100,-
900 in 1900 and then at a fast grow
ing ratio so that there will be Psi, :
727 in 1920, 3733 in 1880, $40 in
1910, and none in 1915. He says
that the morality among old soldiers
is not greater, but much less than
among the average men. He ac-
counts for this by the laws which
give them preference in public pO-
sition and the aid of pensions. OF
the survivors there are about $780,
600 on the pension rolls. leaving
355 900 that might be added. In
addition to the survivors there are
219 900 widows, etc, on the roll to
whom goes more than One-third OF
the $40 100000 annually appro-
prrated. The possibility of additions
to this part of the roll Is not limited
or in any way influenced by the de-
crease of survivors. We are still
paying pensions to half a dozen
widows OF soldiers of the Revolution.
He believes for this reason that pen
sion payments cannot be expected to
diminish much TOR ten or twenty
years yet.
