NATIONAL GUARD DUTY.
Adjt. Gen. COrbin and Gen. Hnrries
Talk About Soldiers.


The National Guard of the District of
Columbia has received no orders, although
it is believed that in the event of hostili-
ties the several companies will be assign
ed to duty in protecting property. Brig.
Gen. Harries said yesterday that he had
no idea where his command would be as
signed. We are as much in the dark as
anyone else" he said
Everything is in readiness, however for
immediate action along definite lines as
soon as these lines are laid out.
1t is known that the governors of the
several States received instructions few
days ago to cause physical examinations
to be made of the men in the State com
plements, with a view TO their being mus
tered into the United States service as
troops of the Regular Army. Such an
examination has been made as directed.
and the results are said to have been
highly satisfactory.
Adjt Gen. Corbin will be guided in his
future action with regard to the National
Guard by the precedents established in
the Mexican War and in the War of the
Rebellion.
cruiting sergeants specially detailed for
that purpose would be sent Immediately
10 the several States to muster in as
many men as may be made necessary by
whatever proclamation the President may
make and in the proportion which may
be assigned to each Of the States The
militiamen would be mustered in for a
definite and designated period at the ex-
piration of which they will proceed TO
their homes and resume their wonted oc-
cupations, as was the case at the close Of
the late war"
is there not a statue which precludes
officers in the National Guard from serv-
ing with rank in the Regular Army?"
was asked.
They will be treated as volunteers. as
IN the late war" was Gen Corbn's re-
ply. In fact all militiamen who may
be mustered into the service of the United
States viii be treated as volunteers. They
will enlist upon a footing similar to that
upon which other civilians will be accept
ed for service
Have any plans of campaign been pro
jected?''
Nothing has been settled definitely"
replied the brigadier general Our plans
will depend altogether upon the turn
events may take"

orally speaking, the chief merit of the,

sharp study in contrasts. The gentle,

ANXIOUS ONES AT EASE.
Feeling of Intense satisfaction The
Mother and Sister of The Murdered
Girl Express sympathy.

Special Dispatch to the Standard.
Dillon. Mont. Jan. THE news of
the hanging of Theodore Durrant at
San Quentin to-day brought a feeling
or universal relief to every inhabitant
of this city, the home of Blanche La
mont. All morning the telegraph office
was besieged with anxious inquiries rel
alive to the hanging. and when at last
word was received that tardy justice
had been executed upon the murderer,
ii spread like a prairie fire all over the
city and the unanimous expression was
one of satisfaction.
There has been a lurking fear in every
breast since the time Durrant was last
sentenced that some trickery of law
would again place a clog on the wheels
of Justice. But when their fear was
banished by the certainty OF Durrant's
execution, a feeling of profound relief
was evident on every hand. the degree
of which can only be compared To the
degree of horror with which the news
of Miss Lamont's cruel murder was re-
ceiyed three years ago. The mother
and sister of the murdered girl decline
to make any statement upon the eXecu-
ton for publication aside from an ex-
preston of sympathy for the relatives
of the hanged man. They feel that the
execution of this murderer can in no
way compensate for their loss or as
SAUCE their feelings of grief. Among
the friends and acquaintance of
Blanche the feeling is different 1t is
one of satisfied justice, a feeling that no
penalty is too severe for one who has
robbed this community of one of its
fairest and much beloved daughters.

the Murderer Awaiting Disposition.
San Francisco, Jan. THE remains
of the Emanuel church murderer, in
charge of a local undertaken, were
driven from San Quentin prison to the
Saucelito ferry and placed on a ferry
boat. The mother of the murderer pre-
ceded the remains by train. The pur-
pose in choosing the Saucelito ferry was
to balk the curiosity of the immense
throng that awaited the arrival of the
body by the Tiburon ferry, on this side.
Meanwhile the remains were landed
here by the Saucelito boat and were well
before the crowd realized the futility
of its wait
At the Durrant home the casket was
placed in the parlor with the customary
form used in the course of natural
deaths. A number of personal friends
OF the family visited the house during
the evening to express their sympathy.
The remains are now encased in the
handsome casket taken over TO the
prison by the undertaken and to which
the body was transferred from the plain
black coffin furnished by the prison au-
thorities.
Up to a late hour this evening no
definite plans have been made for the
final disposition of the remains. Sew

ices in this regard and by tomorrow
the parents will have definitely selected
