COLONEL OF THE REGIMENT.
Col. ]. A Cress, of the regular army, now
stationed at ST. Louis, has been rendered
the appointment of colonel of the regiment,
and he has accepted He will be here this
week to make some arrangement which will
be likely to work out the success of the or
ganization. 1t will be seen that Colonel
Cress is gaining nothing in rank by &C
cepting the appointment, as he is already a
colonel in the regular army, but he Is an
Indiana man, and wishes to command men
from his own State. The lieutenant colonel
selected is c. E. Scholl, of Camden, who
was a captain of cavalry in the civil war
Until something definite is decided on with
regard to the acceptance of the regiment,
no further steps will be taken except to
complete the organization Of the third
squadron by the election of officers.
Little can be learned of the progress of
developments connected with the battery
that was raised some time ago by, e. 7.

among the companies sent out under the
present call, as the Governor hardly hopes
to send out more than one battery, and that
will be the one from Dana.
The attempt to reorganiZe Battery A, of
compelled to stay at home as a nucleus, is
just now in a state of innocuous desuetude.
Nothing Is being done to complete the COM
pany, and nothing is contemplated at pres

after me, with jerk which nearly

slowly but remorselessly pulling loose,
and shot downward.

gripped my arms and legs in an iron
vise-until the blood gushed from my
nose and ears. The water grew icy

seemed filed with rushing noises, with
whisperings and mocking laughter. I
tried to tear away the lead weights
which hung from my belt and shout
ders, but they wouldn't bulge. For

there came jerk at the line! 1t must

would have meant Inconsistencies

that my weight, added to that of the
rock, would pull the line loose, l hauled
myself up, hand over hand, though the
eXertion was so great on account of

slightly lost my equilibrium, and found
that the rock upon which stood
shelved rapidly. A horror of the I'M
fashionable depth which lay but few
feet beyond made me throw myself
fiat upon the bottom, digging my nails
into the coral lest should slip and
sink to knew not where. Lying there
until the beating of my heart slowed
down to something like a normal pull
sation, saw faint reflection Of light
beneath the keel-enough to show that
several feet of the stern hung sheer
over the precipice.
1t must have been at least ten min
utes before / recovered strength
enough to crawl back upon the higher
portion of the ledge; then, realizing
that my supply OF air was nearly OK
hausted, braced myself firmly and
began driving away with the steel bar

der the blows. though at that depth it
few moments the bar had penetrated
several inches; then it struck some
thing soft and spongy, in which it
stuck. Rapidly enlarging the hole I'M

found the reef. had actually found
the wreck of ship which, from its
coral deposit, must have lain in the

found that the coral jacket on the
northerly side of her hull was less than
six inches in thickness! I wanted to
dance from sheer satisfaction, but it
occurred to me that it might be safer
to do so in the proa above, water, so
started back toward her.
Now my mind was so filled with ex-
ultation at having accomplishment
ing impossibilities that l tried to put
my hands in my pockets and whistle
as I strobe along. But. there were no
pockets in the confoundedI rig, and
the whistle was mistake-a big mis-
take. 1t not only exhausted my breath
ing air, but it produced conclusion
in that copper helmet which nearly
lifted the roof off of my skull. 1t
shook my confidence so much that,
when the ringing. partially subsidized in
my ears, I hurried along even faster
toward the proa. After walking con-
siderably farther than what should
have been the proper distance began
to curse my thoughtlessness in not
towing the thing along after me, in

my nervousness must have gone too
far. Finally / turned back, looking
