on the list of associations is the Ladies'
Association of Naval Veterans. Most
people do not believe that women have
any right to call themselves so, but
the members of this association have
and of all the societies kindred of the
Grand Army, none are worthy of more
consideration
With her hand on her husbands s
arm, with the pleasant smile she has
for every one, the corps of ladies at
the encampment will be headed by the
first lady of the land, Mrs. William
Mckinley This will be the first ma
tional encampment from which Mrs.
John A. Logan has been absent, but
the presence of Mrs. Mckinley will
tend to assaage the sorrow among
the veterans at her non-appearance.
With Mrs. Mckinley will be Mrs Gar
rett A. Hobart, who is to accompany
the vice president to the encampment.
These two, with Mrs. Secretary Alger
and Mrs. Gov. Black, will receive the
public at the reception which is to
occur at the Buffalo Music hall
BY the way, this in many respects
will be the most notable reception Ill
point of those who are in attendance
which has taken place at any Grand
Army encampment during the last de-
cade. Gen. Alger will not be the only
ex-grand commander present, for it is
hoped that that old-timc favorite,
whom the veterans know as "Bill'
Warner, by some others as Congress-
man Warner, still others as Maj War
ner, and all of them as Warner, that
jolly good fellow, will be present. Here
is one of the rarest characters in the
Grand Army. A shrewd lawyer, q
patriotic soldier and a keen judge of
human nature and withal a Republi-
can, Maj. Warner carried election after
election in the Fifth Missouri district.
which is a hotbed of Democracy. 1t
was said that he could talk religion
and play poker the best of any man
who ever lived in Missouri, and that Is
saying much. This year the major is
coming all the way from Kansas City,
and no one, not even the president him
self, will receive a warmer welcome,

shlpload of Munitions Shipped
Off to Cuba.

Philadelphia, April 26.-One of
the most quietly and carefully plan
ned expeditions that have left the
United States for Cuba got away last
night from near Sea Isle City. N j
Every precaution was resorted to in
the case of the expedition to avoid
discovery because of the fear that a
revenue cutter would follow the party
or that the Pinkertons would locate
it, as was done in the last case of
the Bermuda. The supply of arms
and ammunition left New York Oh
Saturday on lighters and were placed
on board tug between Barnegat end
Long Branch The tug came s1ealth-
lily down the coast and was soon
Joined by another boat. Of Allan
tic City some Cubans and Americans
were picked up Still further along
a stream launch put out from Sea
Isle City with another detchment,
and later on got another squad from
Avalon, a pretty little place, where
some prominent Philadelphia politi
clans have their summer residences.
Going out to sea, all hands with the
munitions of war were transferred to
a black painted steamer believed to
be the Bermuda, which quickly start
ed south
Of those with the expedition, there
were none of the recognized Cuban
leaders, because nearly all of them
are already out of the country There
were, however, some militiamen from
this city and from Camden. The
munitions consisted of a Hotchkiss
gun, nearly 5000 rifles. 100000
rounds of ammunition. 1000 ma
chetes, a lot of medicines and what
ia known as an experimental flying
machine to be adapted. if possible, to
the use of dynamite.
So secretly were the movements
conducted that the place and time OF
departure were concealed from some
of those who have heretofore known
of ali the details Of these expeditions
1t is even said that John D Hart was
not informed Of what course would
be pursued and that Col. Nunez was
also kept in ignorance of the plans
adopted. This extraordinary policy
ia said to be due to the position OF
these men in the courts The one
has sentence hanging over him
:he other is under Indictment. through
neither is likely to go to prision.

The Atlantic Coast Line has the
authority of the General Assembly to
consolidate al. of its lines into one
system with one cops of officers, and
now the courts have decided in a
friendly test case. that none Of the
lines to be consolidated are compet-
ing. This decision removes the sole
obstacle to the consolidation, and we
may expect steps to be taken imme.

consolidation plans that have been
perfected for some months. The

In the first place, continuous freight
rates will be operated on all branches
of the system, which will result in a
general and systematic lowering OF
the rates that have heretofore been
effective. On the other hand, the
road will be in a shape to be operated
much more economically, as numer.
Gus officials who have held Office aud
drawn salaries from the half dozen or
more roads controlled by the system,
can be dispensed with, and one set

of the entire system. The clerical force
will also be reduced in numbers. for
in future there will be no necessity
for keeping separate accounts for
each road, all Of them being merged
into one under the consolidated char
ter, and thereby losing their identity.
The Atlantic Coast Line is a great
system, one of the strongest in the
South, and, probably, the best man
aged and most uniformly profitable
of any in this section The contem-
plated change in its organization is
an advance, for this system is one
that never goes backward, and we
may expect an improvement in the

WAS A BOLD NAG.
He would Not Go For His New owner
SO Goes Back to Former owner.

Anton Nelson, a drayman, made a
trade of his nag for one of the prettiest
of the group of horses driven into town
this morning by some gypsies. Nelson
saw a great, fine looking gray in the
herd and his eyes grew covetous. He
would give the whole of his nag for
that fine looking horse, and SO it did
not take long to drive up bargain.
The trade took place, the old nag was
taken from the shafts and the new one
pua in. Nelson's bosom swelled with
pride as he viewed his new possession,
and he bethOught him TO put the beast
in motion. But the beast wouldn't
mote. He sulked. and seemed to
think the hand which did hold the
reins above him was the iron hand of
an oppressor, and possessed of the idea
that only by opposing could he end the
high handed tyranny of the bold dray-
man, he stood stalk still. This was on
Market square.
The crowd noticed the battle be-
tween man and beast and collected to
witness the conflict. AS his audience
became larger the animal tentatively
became more DETER ined, and finally
the drayman had to give it up as bad
job.
He found that if he wanted his new
horse to go he must coax him with
many pet phrases and tempt him with
sweet sugar plums, and then wait
upon the pleasure of his horse. He
traded back.

Earth.
Mr.. Beffel, who is building the dock
at the end of Washington street, met
with misfortune this afternoon.
When he began the work he built the
frame supporting his hammer over the
ground where the piles were to be
driven. This afternoon just as the
hammer, which weighs 1900 pounds,
was up at the top Of the runway thirty
feet in the air. it tripped itself and fell
the whole distance. No pile was
under it at the time, and consequently
the great iron hammer had nothing to
resist its momentum but the soft mud
near the waters edge, and the founda-
ton on which the pile driver stood.
This consisted of three 3x12 planks
and one 6x12. Through this the thing
broke with terrible crash, burying it.
self fifteen feet in the earth. 1t is prob
ably lost, as Mr.. Beffel does not intend
to search for it. The shock of it's fall
also tore the superstructure from it's
foundations. 1t will take some time to
replace the lost driver and straighten
up the leaning tower.

He was as unlike the ordinary tramp

that she had nothing in the house fit
for tramp to eat, but he had her at a
