COMPANY ..
EXAMINED FOR SERVICE.

Members of Company D. and Others
who have enlisted in the United States
service, were examined this week at the
Armory by Drs. Cramton, Hartshorn
and Allen. A good deal of interest has
centered about these examinations, and
some disappointment has resulted.
NOT ALL CAN co.
Even fevery one Of the recruits proved
to be able-bodied and thus acceptable to
Uncle Sam, not all can go this time. One
hundred and thirty men enlisted, but
only 80 are wanted now to fill the num-
Der required from Vermont, so SO will
have to be thrown out either by reason
OF physical disability or because the
company is full enough without them.
OFF FOR THE WARS.
The Company leave tomorrow for
Burlington, going by special train at
nine a. n., over the Lake road. Orders
were received from the adjutant generals
Office on Monday, and the permanent
camp ground near Essex Junction is the
place of rendezvous.

A Patriotic Fourth.

The Lyndon Union makes the excellent
suggestion that il St. Johnsbury is to
have celebration on the Fourth of July
the declaration OF independence be read.
The CALIFORNIAN heartily approves of
this and would suggest still further that
the celebration this year be a patriotic
one. In view of the fact that the United
States is in the midst of war, and that
victory is perching high on the star
spangled banner, it would be most ap-
propriate to have besides the reading of
the declaration of independence patri-
otic address that would remind young
America of the duties and responsible
ties OF citizenship. The centennial cele-
bration in 1876 included the recital of
the declaration OF independence by the
late Judge Poland and stirring address
by Gen. Joshua L. Chamberlin OF Maine,
and older residents of the town have not
yet forgotten how their blood was stirred
by these two events OF the day. Let us
have a real old-fashioned celebration
with an address as the principal feature.

Shut Down at the Shoe Factory.

Since the resignation of Manager
Stocker the affairs at the shoe factory
have been managed by President Cowles
and no new orders have been taken. All
uncompleted orders are being filled and
the help are being discharged so that
there are now only dozen hands at the
factory. By Saturday night all un6n-
ished work will have been completed and
the factory will be shut down while an
investigation is made of the establish
ment. Among the serious problems con-
nected with the settlement of affairs is
the fact that the company have no title
to the land they are on and the directors
are personally held for about $4,000 as
endorsers on the company's notes.
President Cowles hopes the shut down
will be only temporary and that the
wheels may be running again before
long.

Rice's Comedians.

Rice's big company of comedians will
open weeks engagement at the Howe
Opera House next Monday night. The
bill will be changed nightly, and four
matinees will be given producing ten
pieces during the week, and changing
their list of specialties at every perform
ance. OF their company the Lowell
Courier says:
"The company is a strong and evenly
balanced one, and the dramatic work
was excellent. The specialties were many,
and OF high order, clean and wholesome.
The dressing and scenery are in keeping
with the piece. Edison's moving pic
lures were the best ever seen here, by far
the clearest. But when the illustrated
war songs were produced the audience
went wild. 1t was a novelty here, the
pictures are colored, and are really beau
tiful"
The moving pictures include several of
the battleship Maine and colored one
OF the flag and are very taking feature
OF the performance Tickets at the low
price of 10, 20 and 80 cents.

"Hagar and lshmaeI."

The success of Marriage Dramas"
last week has led to arranging Tor the
production OF new scriptural drama
entitled "Hagar and Ishmael." This
drama will be produced during COM
mencement week at the Academy. the
third week in June, under the personal
supervision OF Miss Allen. The drama is
written by an actor and is not series of
tableaux like Marriage Dramas" but a
play with 10 leading characters and
about 100 secondary characters. The
story follows closely the Bible narrative
and the scenic effects of the drama will
be as fine as any ever seen in this town.

Unduly Excited.

A good deal has been said in certain
quarters within the past few days about
Gov. Grout's contemplated removal of
Col. Clark from the command of the
First Regiment, and quite breeze has
been created in military circles, some of
the guardsmen going so far as to predict
a general revolt if such thing were done.
All this excitement is premature, and
has nothing substantial on which to
rest. Gov. Grout has not made any
announcement of his purpose in this par
ticular regard.
The members of the regiment are nat
urally fond of their new colonel and
would desire to have him retained, and
it is perfectly proper to assume that if he
is found to be the man for the place in
the present crisis he will be retained. No
definite action has been taken in the
matter.
