THE NEW COMPANY.
Captain Kokanoff Has 1O7 Choice
Volunteers.

B. A. KokanOff called a meeting of
his volunteer company last Tuesday,
but owing to some misunderstanding as
to the room in the armory in which
the meeting was to take place the
members were scattered, and it became
necessary, after calling the same to
order and electing B. ]. Dillon, a law
yer of the State of Washington, as
Chairman, and John c. Catlin as Sec
retary, to postpone the election OF Off
GERS till Saturday last.
The roll-call at that time contained
only seventy names, but when Chair
man Dillon called the meeting to or
der Secretary Catlin reported that the
number had swelled to 1Ol, with more
coming.

Of Captain. John C. Catlin and Bis

DANGEROUS PLACE.
Complaint Against Scorching in
Capitol Park Driveways.

A wheelman writes as follows to the
Record Union:
Would it not be a good idea for The
Capitol Commissioners to prohibit the
riding of bicycles in any part of Capitol
Park? 1 had never thought so until
within the last few days. In fact, l have
always thought that it would do 10
harm to allow bicycle riding-at slow
speed-over the walks east of Twelfth
street.
However this might be, l am now
convinced that it is danger to life and
limb to allow persons to scorch down
the Eleventh-street grades from the
Capitol building and out upon l. and
N streets. And if necessary in order to
prohibit this scorching, let wheeling en-
these driveways be stopped altogether.
Only the other day little girl who was
entering one of these driveways from
the street was run down by some man
who could not stop his wheel in time to
avoid a collision, and to-day / was wit
ness to very narrow escape from a
collision which, had it taken place
would have sent several persons to the
hospital. and perhaps to the Morgue.
"A procession of six bicycle riders
(men and women) came piling out CT
the Eleventh-street entrance into N
street, forming line of scorchers some
forty feet long and going at the rate
of fifteen miles an hour. Debouching in
to n street they soon covered its entire
width, and it would have been impossi-
BILE for any one riding up or down N
street to get through the line
"A wheelman was going down the
street just at that moment. and CT
course could not see the procession until
its leader shot out past the thick shub-
berry and the big stone gate-post He
was then within a few feet of the gate.
and had he been riding at a lively gait
himself he and the leader of the nro-
cession would have gone down in col
lision, and all the others would prob
ably have piled on top of them AS it
was, the N-street rider was just able to
leap off his wheel and avert collision
"A few days ago a man shot out Of
the same gateway at a tWenty-mile clip
turned up on the wrong side of N street.
and barely missed dashing upon a rider
who was passing down on the right
side of the street
Now, although I ride q wheel daily.
and in the vicinity of the Capitol. 1
have not found it necessary to ride
across the park driveway in two years.
and l don't believe it is necessary for
any one to do so. If a person has busi-
ness at the Capitol, let him ride up the
driveway, but on leaving the building
he should lead his wheel out to the
street. Those who have no business
there should keep out
I'm short, 1 believe the Capitol Com
missioners should either require every
one to lead his or her wheel on going
away from the building-owing to the
steep grades-or prohibit riding in the
park altogether. This doWn-grade
scorching should be stopped. or some
one will be killed by it"

Eds. Record-Union': 1 notice that
one c. Retlow feels called upon to write
you regarding the character of Fight
ing Bob Evans, because the Associ-
ated Press dispatches attribute to the
brave officer what your correspondent
is pleased to call "a coarse expression .
Mr.. (Mrs. or Miss) Retlow's letter
seems to call for an expression of opin-
sion. The press dispatch attributes
these words to the commander of the
Iowa: THE Spaniards didn't hit a -
thing, but the water, and that was
not a great difficulty" These words
came from, or are alleged to have come
from, a commanding sofficer who for
over half an hour had had every nerve
at it's greatest tension in hot naval
engagement
Our sailors, soldiers and officers who
are placing their lives in jeopardy in
the performance of their duties should
certainly be entitled to and should re-
ceive unqualified praise and thanks for
their service, whether they may use a
coarse expression or not. They are
sent to the front to whip the Span
iards, and until Congress sees fit to
instruct the proper authorities to de-
mand that all sailors, soldiers and oftl-
GERS shall adapt their phraseology to
the Retlow standard let US not call our
brave fighters "blackguards, to again
quote from Mr.. (NIrs. or Miss RetloW
If this is to be a .Pinafore war,
let's have all our forces recalled ar
once and in their places send the Ret-
lows of the country to the front, IN or
der that the ears of the good stay-at-
homes may not be shocked by the echo
of an occasional damn.
