H low the Eagle Became Our
National Emblem.

The great, glorious and indestructi-
bile American eagle is officially 116
years old, or will be on June Goth.
After the reading of the Declaration
of Independence before the Continen-
tai congress on July 4, 1776, DIR
Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and John
Adams were appointed committee to
prepare a device for the seal of the
United States. They recommended
on August 10, shield, in one of
whose corners was Il tiny eagle.
This seal did not meet favorable re-
ception.
Nothing further was done until
March 25, 1779, when the matter was
referred to new committee. Their
work counted not, and after some dc.
bate their report was recommittcd.
Two years later the records show
further activity in the efforts to
evolve a suitable seal. The commit.
tee reports were referred to the Secre-
tary of Congress, Charles Tomson.
Among others, the assistance of Will
liam Barton, OF Philadelphia, was
sought, and he submitted an elaborate
design, in which the eagle, for the
first time, prominently appears. Ia
the description of the device, the bird
is referred to as being "emblematical
of sovereignty"
Another design submitted by Secre-
taro Tomson, shows still further evo-
luton OF the eagle. In it are the ris-
ing bird, with shield ON its breast,
an olive branch in one talon and
arrows in the other.
The next and last report was in
dorsed; Mr.. Barton's improvement on
the Secretary's device. This made
slight alterations, and after itself
undergoing small changes, it was
adopted June 90, 1882.
A Major General in the army of the
United States gets $500 year and a
Brigadier General, $4,000. Colonels
get $500 year during the first five
years, with an increase of 10 per cent.
every five years up to twenty years.
Lieutenant Colonels draw $1,000 a
year and Majors 81, 500 during the first
five years, with 10 per cent. increase
every five years up to twenty years.
Enlisted men draw $13 a month in
time of peace and $3.50 in war time.
The pay of mounted Captain during
the first five years service is $4,000 a
year. After 20 years service he re.
ceives $500 a year. An unmounted
Captain receives 81 800 year during
the first five years and $3.50 year
after 20 years service. A First Lieu.
tenant, mounted, receives 81 1000 and
unmounted $500 a year during the
first five years, and $2,240 and 50, lOC
respectively after 20 years service. A
Second Lieutenant, mounted, receives
ST. $40 and unmounted 81 400 during
the first five years and $4,000 and ST.
$50 respectively after 90 years.

Respectfully,

(Sig.) "F. j. LOWREG,
For the Committee"
The reply is as follows:
This committee has no further re-
quest to make of the Legislature. You
are aware under what circumstances
work was commenced in Union square
and of what action was taken by the
Legislature in regard thereto.
AT the meeting of the two commit
tees it was shown to you that as the
location in Union square was not at
ceptable to the Legislature. that Il
space in the grounds of the Executive
building would he satisfactory to this
committee. You now notify us that
your committee cannot accept this
recommendation, and intimate that
another location which you mention
might receive favorable consideration.
There is nothing definite to show that
such favorable report would be made,
and for reasons given TO your commit
tee the location referred to is not APP
proved of by us.
at seems hardly fitting to make
any comments on the repuort of the
Military Committee of the House in
reference to an appropriation for the
erection of tombstones to the mem
DRY of the men who were killed at
Kalalau. We would like to say how
ever that the action taken in regard
to the Carter memorial seems very
inconsistent when compared to this
report. To those who are familiar
with the circumstances of both cases.
comment is Unnecessary"
Before adjourning the body passed
resolution thanking the Executive
for their efforts to secure for the Cit
liens Guard a suitable site for the
erection of a memorial to the late
Charles l.. Carter.

THE GUARDS TAKE ACTION
BUSINESSLIKE REPLY TO THE
LEGISLATURE.
Action of Senate in Forbidding Use
of Union Square was Slap at Exc
cutive-The Answer.

Citizens Guard officers met at the
station house at ) o'clock yesterday
afternoon to receive the report of the
special committee appointed on a me-
mortal to Charles l.. Carter In its
report the committee had this to say
of the action of the Legislature re-
speeding the matter:
THE Senate gave no intimation
either to this committee or to the En-
ecutive that the matter was to be
brought up. but passed the resolu-
ton at once and sent it to the House.
The latter body was courteous enough
to give the committee a hearing but
still reported against the location. We
think the action of the Senate was at
least very hasty, and one of the Sen
ators has told members of this COM
mittee that the opposition was not on
account of the location, but was in
tended as slap at the Executive for
granting permission for the erection
on public property without the sane
ton of the Legislature. We do not
wish to be understood as saying that
| this was the reason why all voted as
they did. Some undoubtedly thought
it would be an obstruction (?) a joint
committee was appointed to meet
with this committee and confer upon
a site for the memorial. Such a meet
ing was held and the joint commit
tee was given to understand that n
place anywhere in the Executive
Building grounds would be accept
able. and reasons We're given why we
did not wish to place it in some other
localities which We're mentioned. A
letter has now been received from the
| joint committee in which they say
they cannot recommend the Executive
grounds. and asking if we wish fur
Their meeting on the subject.
your committee has written a re-
ply to this communication. which
they now submit for your con-
sderation, and await your further IN
structions in regard to the memorial.
