'CHEERED THE BLACK
BOYS IN BLUE
Florence Turns Out to Greet the
Twenty-Fourfh
PATRIOTIC FERVOR AROUSED

Shortly before l o'clock today a
crowd began to gather at the ID. e.
R. G. Railroad depot.
News was received last night
from Major S. K. Hooper and pub
! lished in The Tribune that the
Twenty-fourth infantry would
pass through Florence today on its
way to the front.
Nearly everyone had heard of it
before noon and everyone wanted
to see the first regular soldiers on
active duty that had ever been in
Florence.
Flags were flying by the time
that the train was expected and at
l o'clock Capt. Harris formed part
of the Boys brigade in line on the
depot platform to keep the people
4 back.
Many ladies, including several
of the school teachers and a num-
Der of the school girls mingled
with the crowd and of course the
small boy was much in evidence.
The town band was there and as
the first section of the troop train
drew in it played national airs in
its best style. 1t was nearly three
O'Clock then, but the crowd had
not lost any of its enthusiasm by
the long wait and loud cheers rent
the air as the black and coffee col
ored faces were, seen of the men
who are likely to be in the van in
the Cuban fighting.
A dozen privates were riding on
the roofs of the two cattle cars in
front of the train which contained
the mules belonging to the regi-
ment.
The rest of the first section was
composed of tourist sleepers all
crowded and Pullman in the

A NAVAL SALUTE.

significance of the FOrmaIities
Which Are Extended at Sea.
From st. Nicholas. Sac.
No salute exceeds twenty-one guns
and no salute is ever fired except be-
tween sunrise and sunset. when the
national cOlors must be displayed: but
it is also usual not to. fire salutes be-
fore a. m. Whenever the president
Is embarked in ship-of-war flying
his flag, all other United States shiDs-
of-war and naval stations near which
he passes will fire the national salute.
Side-boys are detailed usually from
the apprentice boys. They stand each
side Of the gangway, in line, and salute
by touching their caps as visiting Off
Gals come on board or leave. Commits
stoned officers board and leave a ship
by the starboard gangway. Warrant
officers, naval cadets and enlisted men
use the port gangway.
After nightfall, all boats coming close
to the ship are hailed by the marine
sentry or by the quartermaster with
the words, Boat ahoy!' A flag officer
answers, Flag" a commanding officer
answers the name of his ship; other
commissioned officers answer. ave,
aye" warrant officers and naval cadets
answer mo, no." while enlisted men
answer "Hellop
Every officer and man, on reaching
the upper deck, salutes the national
flag, and this salute is returned by
the officer of the watch at hand.
Flag officers are addressed by their
titles Of admiral or commodore; cap
tains and commanding officers are call
ed "captain;" all other officers are call
ed Mr." and not by their official titles,
Though in addressing them in writing
these titles are always used. The sur
geons, however. are usually called
doctor" and paymasters of any grade
"paymaster."
Boat salutes are given by tossing
oars, which means holding them up
right in the air with the blades fore
and aft; or by lying on, oars, by which
is meant holding the oars horizontal as
they rest in the rowloeks. CoXswains
Of boats stand and salute when passing
boats containing officers. All officers
and men, whether in uniform or not,
meeting a senior officer af1Oat or ashore,
salute by touching the cap.
When q ship of the navy enters a
port of any nation where there is a
fort or battery. or where a ship-of-
war of that nation may be lying, she
shall fire a salute OF twenty-one guns,
provided the captain Is satisfied that
the salute will be returned. The flag
Of the nation salutedl will be displayed
at the main during the salute.
National airs Of foreign states hav-
Ing war vessels in, company with our
own will be played by our bands as a

times did the Millers straighten out his

hits including one three-bagger and two dou-

In the second inning what looked like a
very serious accident occurred. Davis hit
a hard grc"nder toward Leewe. The blonde
shortstop reached down to stop it. and il
bounded, striking him fairly on the Jaw. He
went down like a log, and it was several
minutes before he revived He stayed in

crowded, Isbell batted a sharp one
at Stewart, who let 1t go through
him. Every one started. lsbell over
ran first and while they were playing
for him between first and second all
the others scored. Hickey let Shu-
CARTS bounder go through him, but
Scott threw Gillen out. That made
the score to 6.
The visitors did not get the ball out
of the infield nor did they reach first
base. The locals needed but one to
tie?
But Stewart threw out Preston, and
Spies flew to Hickey. Denzer was
thrown out by Scott.
Hickey flew to Burke, and Roger
famed Scott. Hogriever sent drive
to right field, and Burke let it go
through him, following this overt act
by an inert statuesqueness that might
be construed as an armed neutrality.
BY the time Geier had run over into
Burkes field for the ball and returned
it HOgrieVer had squeezed clear around
to the plate. Stewart flew to Geier,
but the damage had already been in
flicted
After Burke flew to Nichol and Allen
threw Geier out, Scott gave Glenalvin
a base and Stewart gave Isbell an
other by a pretty tumble. Still, he re-
covered his equilibrium in time to
throw Shugart out, and when home
run would have won the game in a
walk the locals admirers saw their
hopes rudely dashed down. The score:

PHYLE'S LAST HERE.
st. Cloud Boy Is to Leave This Week
for Chicago.


The St. Paul and Indianapolis cubs will
play at Lexington park again this afternoon,
game beginning at $3.50 o'clock. Phyle will
be in the blk for the locals, and it is very
probable that this will be his last appearance
here, as he has been sold to the Chicago club,
OF the National league and will go there this
week to finish the season with Dah!en's Colts
Foreman or Hawley will pitch for the visi-
tors.
Shugart took his eleven chances yester
day without an error.
The Indianapolis base ball club. which Is
staying at the Windsor, where q number of
the sick volunteers are quartered last night
took up collection for the local Red Cross
fund.
Roger only gave one base on balls, but
dictate that that one was one too many.
Hal Reed, of the indianapolis News, 40
companies the club on this trip.
The work of shugart was superb Had he
rounded 1t cut with a home run in the ninth
he would have been carried off the grounds
on the shoulders Of the fans
The Saints beat the Indians in hollow
style from the second to the ninth inning
but that heart-breaking first inning did the
business.
Some day 1t will occur to the st. Paul man
is about nine notches above his class.
The catching of Kahoe at the plate in the
nth inning, was. clever piece Of work, in
which equal praise is due Geier, Glenalvin
and Spies. A perfect throw would have
caught Scott in the same way IN the sixth.
Gi-len was three times in a place where
he could have won the game with a long,
clean drive.
st. Paul punched hits in the second, third
and fifth innings, but each bunch was one
short Of being a real good thing
Mcfarland Is a very short first baseman,
but his pals threw the balls to him low and
he made record Of fifteen put-outs for the
afternoon.
Ace Stewart mussed up things very badly
in his field, as did also Bob Alien. Are
these men getting over into the class Of
has beens?"
The Indianapolis team made five hits In
Its last game with Milwaukee at home and
six, four and six in it's three games at Min
neapolis. Yesterday it made seven hits in
the opening inning. How's that for luck?
