The ssth Michigan Volunteers.

Having received positive assurance
that Michigan would be permitted TO
furnish another regiment of volun-
teers under the Presidents second call,
Gov. Pingree and the state military
board went to work and by the time
the formal order had been received
from the war department the outline
of the organization of the 35th Michi-
gan volunteer regiment had been al
most completed.
Adjt. Gen. +. M. Irish, of the Michi-
gan National Guard, was chosen as
colonel of the new regiment, partially
in recognition of his services at Camp
Eaton. Quartermaster-Gener VIM.
+. White, of Grand Rapids. was named
for Northumberland. Majors, Lieut..
ii. III. Bandholtz, Lansing; Geo. Corns,
Detroit; third not decided upon; adju-
tant, T.. 5. Roos, Kalamazoo; quarter
master, w. B. Mcdonald, Ionia; sur
geon, with rank of major, DIR. o. p.
Barber, Saginaw; assistant surgeons,
with rank of lieutenant, DIR. III. A.
CRUDE. Coldwater, and DIR. l.. b. San
dell, Au, Sable.
1t was announced that the companies
would be taken from districts not al
ready represented. Companies will be
drawn from the regions surrounding
Alpena, Charlotte, Detroit, Wyandotte,
Howell, Petoskey, Pontiac and Sanilac,
and possibly from other communities.
Then there will be one company of
Sons of Veterans, who will probably
be from all parts of the state. The
officers will practically be picked out
by Col. Irish. Men who may have
been elected officers of Independent
companies will not stand any particu-
lar show. So far three captains have
been practically settled upon. They
are: NJ. A. Prince, of Alpena; A. f. Me-
Cabe, of Petoskey, and II. $. Locl<ton,
of Charlotte The officers of the 5. of
V. company will probably be men who
are prominent in that organization.
Charlotte: The local military COM
pany recently organized by Sergt. An
ness, of FIT. Wayne, Detroit, are in
open revolt because of the action of the
state military board in rejecting An
ness as captain and appointing r. 5.
Lockton, a well-lnown politician of
Marshall.

Value In Old Newspapers.

From the Woman's Home Compan-
ion: Old newspapers form an import
ant item in domestic economy, and are
useful for polishing window-g glasses,
for cleaning lamp-chimneys, for test
ing and cleaning flat-irons, and for
dozen other things; you will also need
heaps of them when you come to pack
away the winter clothing. The clothes
moth, like other evil-doers, has an
aversion to printers ink. An excel
lent moth-proof bag, second only to the
expensive tar paper. and costing no
thing, may be made Of two thicknesses
of newspaper, with the edges folded as
II for an inch wide hem. and securely
pasted. Bags Of the same kind are
about the best thing you can use for
keeping seeds and dried herbs. They
are dust and insect proof, and can be
labeled and hung in the storeroom I'M
til needed.

We must admit that there is reason
in Josephine Shaw Lowells declaration
that married men have no business TO
go to war. When married man is in
war he has, if not an officer, no one to
help him dress. There ought to be a
valet to every private soldier, but this
is impossible, and we believe VIVIAN
dieres run only one to regiment.
Then, again, who shall help the absent
wife in her morning and other toilets,
il she cannot afford a maid? She must
perforce harness herself in her corset
by tying herself to door, and her large
sleeves must poke back themselves or
go unpoked. These things seem triv-
ial but when they go on week after
week and month after month they
amount to agony.

Michiran,s Governor Receives "a Welcome
M Camp Thomas.

at Camp Thomas.
Gov. Pingree, accompanied by In
spector-General Cas-, quietly entered
the camp of the 3lst Michigan regiment
at Chickamauga, just a day ahead of
the time he was expected. 1t was the
intention of Col. Gardener to meet the
governor at the depot with an army
wagon, drawn by four mules and have
the band ready to welcome him upon
his arrival at camp, but the first notice
the regiment had OF ms arrival, was
when he got out OF an old carry-all,
driven by a Negro, and was recognized
by sentinel at the guard house. The
news spread quickly through the camp
and every one turned out TO give him
a hearty welcome. The men had just
returned from battalion drill, and they
ran to greet him. They crowded
around him to shake his hand until
Capt. Baxter, officer of the day, had
them form in two lines. and the gov
ernor passed between them, shaking
hands as he passed. Cheer after cheer
was given. His excellency was then
conducted to Col. Gardeners tent. He
inspected the hospital and cooks tents
and after dinner accompanied Col.
Gardener to call upon Maj. Gen.
Brooke, Brig Gen. Poland and ON
Gen. Lee.
Gov. Pingree was visited later by
officers and privateS from regiments of
other states and he was well pleased
with the condition of affairs. A regi-
mental drill was given in honor of the

Never before was war so written up
and overwritten. There are cable dis
patches which cost five dollars word,
and it is estimated that the city jour
nails spend in the aggregate for war
correspondence a hundred thousand
dollars day. Indeed, millions would
soon be eaten up by the fleets of steam
yachts and tugs manned by reporters,
sketchers and photographers, futtering
about among the battleships and ply
ing between the Cuban coast and the
mainland. And it costs a pile of money
to manufacture countless columns and
pages of news" out of mere rumors and
guesses, or to beat a few drops of fact

The tendency OF the American wom-
an to unpunctuality was prominently
displayed at the recent Mothers Con-
gress in Washington, where allowances
of half an hour had to be made for the
opening Of sessions and the arrival Of
speakers. At reception given the del
egates by Mrs. Mckinley, many of them
arrived too late to see her, although
the hours had been distinctly noted in
the invitation. 1T is the fashion to
go to Ranelagh after 1t is over" Horace
Walpole once wrote to a friend; the
music ends at ten, the guests arrive at
twelve" Unpunctuality may not be
one of the seven deadly sins, but the
person who lags behind a stated hour
shows that she considers her own con-
venience before that of others.

Two Men Drowned in Diving Bell.

The search for the cargo of the lost
steamer Pewabic. of Alpena, has re-
suited in the death of two more divers.
The steamer Root. which has been
working on the wreck with the Smith
diving bell, reports that George G..
Campbell. superintendent of the expe-
dition. and Peter Olson. sailor, have
both been drowned in the bell. While
the divers were working in the hull of
the Pewabic the bell became fouled in
the wreckage and it was some time be-
fore it could be raised. The bell had
filled through one of the windows,
which was found broken. Mr.. Camp
bell was prominent and wealthy
man of Milwaukee. and leaves a widow
and three children. Olson was not
married.
Four divers have lost their lives in
efforts to secure the valuable cargo of
the Pewabic. William Hike, of Buff
falo, died from exposure in 1865 and
Oliver Pelley, of Ashland, became en-
tangled in the wreck in 1891 and was
pulled to the surface dead. Capt.
Phelps OF the Root feels the accident
keenly, and declares that he would not
lower another man in the bell for
$4,000.
