The officers have parlor CAP in the
east wing while the men are in the
main room with Co. I. There are $50
lively boys in that room and when the
lights go out at night there is usually
a rich comedy produced on which the
officers finally are obliged to ring the
curtain down in order to get the neces-

those $50 youthful minds is not worth
mentioning.
State Auditor Dunn is keeping faith

ARBOR DAY.

1t Was Appropriately Observed by the
Village Schools. t
This popular school holiday was OBJ
served by all the classes in the addi-
tion of about thirty new trees to the
High school grounds, and eighteen
about the primary school grounds.
The weather was favorable to the
operations. The boys and girls in the
forenoon repairing to the woods with
axes and spades and bringing back
choice collection of box elders, ashes,
elms and hard NAPLES. The afternoon
was devoted to setting them out. It
was found that out of the fifty and
more planted last season on the high
school grounds, only three had to be
replaced. In less than two hours a
double row was in place lining the east
approach to the building, a row along
the outside of the east walk, and a row
fringing the south side of, the play
grounds. On the primary grounds the
usual interesting ceremony of songs
and recitations took place attending
the planting of the class trees.
Great credit is due the
teachers and scholars in their very
successful effort to beautify the
grounds, especially as the enjoyment
will be to those who come after. At
the present rate of decoration another
year will see the work about com
pleted. =.
The board of county commissioners
were in session last Friday and Satur-.
day. The official proceedings will be
published in next weeks issue. The
usual grist of bills were allowed, sever
al being rejected. Petition for the
formation ola new school district from
district No. IL, was rejected on account
of defects in the petition. The bond
of Citizens State Bank, as depository
of the county funds, in the sum of

statement was approved and will ap-
pear in the UNIONas soon as It can be
put in type. The next meeting of the,
board will be June /.

Of inquiry into the circumstances at
tending the death of Artiflcer Leo J.
Brady of Co. c, Ninth Mass. regiment
which was begun in the East armory
yesterday, was resumed today.
The questions asked the witnesses
were framed to bring out the facts in
connection with the illness and death
of Artificer Brady at Santiago and also
to show the attitude of Captain Quin-
Ian, who is accused by. Brady's moth
er of neglect and other misdeeds and
misdemeanors.
Quarterma ster Sergeant Maurice e
Boland told what he knew of Brady s
illness. and said he gave the sick man
the best rations that were to be round
When questioned about Captain
Quinlan, he said he never knew OF the
captain being drunk, but that he lhad
obtained liquor from Captain Quinlan
when he was cold and said that other
men of the guard told him they also
had been given some.
Lieutenant Henry Crane told of hav-
ing visited Brady in his tent, ana OF the
removal of the patient TO the DIVISION
hospital Lieutenant crane stated thdl
the men who took him to the hospital
came back and said that an order mao
been issued refusing admission, and
that the doctor had examined him and
said that there was nothing the matter
with him except home sickness.

not, the concession for years had prac-
tically been cancelled by the violation
Of several articles of the agreement.
Although the government held that the
concession ran until October, 1899, there
was no disposition of the officials to
grant a renewal of work, which had
ceased nine years ago. Then we ar
ranged for a new and independent con-
cession, the work on which will be
pushed vigorously. This new grant has
been dated when the Warner Miller
concession is supposed to end, in 1899
There is probability, however,
that the Maritime company will aban-
don the work when they understand
the provisions of the new syndicate
purchase. This may permit a cancel
lation of the old contract in advance of
the time set, and that would give us a
chance to begin work Immediately.
Our contract, although it is dated Oc-
tober, 1899, contains a clause which
says unless built before that date.
Mr. Cragin said that the route Of the
canal will not be materially changed
and that the capital to complete the
