appointed to obtain power of attorney
from the soldiers to take $12 month

Strange Position OF Recruits.

Boston, Sept. 26.-The Herald says:
THE Massachusetts Volunteer Aid as
socia ton is besieged with applications
for help from the cluts of the Ninth
Mass chuse is infantry, United States
volunteers. These men seem to be In a
peculiar and unfortunate position. There
are about 400 of them in all, and their
exact standing canont be ascertained by
them. When they left camp at Fran
ingham, they say that they were told
by Lieute nant Colonel Weaver that they
were fur.oughed with the rest of the
regiment and should go home and walt
until the expiration of the furlough,
when they would be mustered out Of the
service. The difficulty now lies in the
fact that noneAof them have individual
written furlough papers. Consequently
when they apply to Quartermaster
Hyde for clothing or rations he cannot
recognize them without their papers,
and so many are living from hand to
mouth, sleeping where they best can,
going in rags and not knowing where
the next meal is comirg from. They
have been able to draw their state pay,
but their regular army pay is behind
hand.
Steps are being taken for the relief of
these men ard to secure prompt med
ical and other attention.

Adee Is Secretary of state

Washington. Sept. 26.-The former
acting secretary Of state, Mr.. Adee is
now actually secretary of state, the
president having issued special COM
mission to him as secretary of state ad
interim. The law provides that in the
absence of the secretary the first assist,
ant secretary shall act as secretary CT
state, but makes no provision for such
a case as existed when Secretary Day
and First Assistant Secretary Moore re-
tired simultaneously. Therefore it was
necessary to issue a special commits ion

igan reports that sickness in his regl-
ment is decreasing, and he hopes IN an

phoid cases. The serious cases are be-
ing sent to the city hospitals as fast as

THE ROOSEVELT CASE.

Probably Come to an AmicaDie
Settler ent of the Question
before Convention Opens.

Saratoga, Sept 26.-It Is true that pol
tiles make strange bedfellows, for when
the last train rolled in here with the
Platt and Roosevelt adherents IN the
same cars with Black supporters there
was nothing in evidence to demonstrate
that there was an i'll feeling From all
indications 1t may be set down as
fact that when the convention meets on
Tuesday it will have settled upon cam
1idate and that one day convention
will he the result, attached to a harmo-
ny that will preclude any possibility OF
a split ticket. One surprise sprung upon
the Roosevelt forces in the shape or
claim of nonresidence in the state is still
In active force On the one hand the
forces claiming to be the adherents OF
the Republican organization claim that
the contention of nonresidence Is rldlcu-
lous and that above all affidavits and
legal statements is the fact that Mr.
Roosevelt lived in Oyster Bay, on Long
Island, for years, and that 1t is there-
fore his residence. On the other hanu
the Black adherents claim that the az
fidavit distinctly asserts that Roosevelt
was simply dwelling In Oyster Bay Tor
a vacation period and that he distinctly
stated for the purpose of avoiding a
tax that he and his family had changed
their residence to Washington.
Judge j. Rider Cady, who was mem
Der of the constitutional convention last
held, said:
Judge Cady's Opinion.
1.-THE convention did not change the
section of the constitution relating to
qualifications for ofIlceholders, but 1T
was generally discussed. and | believe it
was agreed that the provision relating
to nonresidence was strong. 1t would
seem as If an affidavit citing that per-
son was not liable to local taxation be-
cause of nonresdence was ample evil

the courts would require much stronger
proof Of nonresdence. l have no par

a monument to the Confederate dead;

the top. The Second South Carolina Regi-

was the first organized by the Confederate

battles of Virginia. 1t was in Kershaw's

The spider has a tremendous appetite

competition. A scientist who carefully no

spider were built proportionately to the
human scale he would eat at daybreak
approximately a small alligator; by a..

pard; by O'Clock, a sheep. and would
finish up with a lark pie in which there
