city.
Maj. Andrew G. C. Quay has been mus
tered out as Major of Volunteers. but
retains his rank of Captain and Quarter
master. He is a son of Senator Quay, of
Pennsylvania.
A brother that the Sons of Veterans have
every reason to be proud of is Col. Webb G.
Hayes, son of the late President of the
United States and recently commissioned
Northumberland of the 31st L. S. Volun-
teers. He has been successful lawyer in
Cleveland, o., and also an enthusiastic
National Guardsman. He went into the
Spanish war as Major of the 1st Ohio Cav,
but finding the chances small of his regi-
ment being ordered to the front, he secured
a detail on Gen. Skaters staff, and speci-
ally distinguished himself at Guasimas and
Santiago. where he was wounded and his
horse killed. Still not having enough of

mission to accompany Gen. Miles to Porto
Rico. since the operations were at an end at
Santiago. He was recommended for

for special gallantry-
Maj.-Gen. Shafter will have reached the
age limit in about three months, and it is
said his friends are working quietly, but
none the less energetically, to secure his
retention in the service for a few years
longer. They argue that since the Depart
ment of the Pacific has become soimportant
by reason of the acquisition of the Philip
pines, it is inadvisable to make change
in its commander just at this time.
Col. D. r. Anthony, brother of Susan B.
Anthony, has lost none of his aggressive
fighting spirit, though he is now in his
10Th year. In his recent affray with an ex-
Sheriff at Leayonworth, il took all that the
eX-Sheriff and his friends could do to pre-
vent Anthony's shooting his opponent.
They overpowered the old man by force of
numbers, and brutally kicked him in the
face after they had him down. He has
issued general challenge to all the young
bullies" of Leavenworth, and promises
them all the entertainment they want, if

The border ruffians at once decided that lie
must be gotten rid of, but every attempt
only got themselves badly hurt, and an
assault upon him was a pretty sure order
or Grape for some of his asSailantS. AT the
of the rebellion Col. Anthony
raised the 1st Kan. Cav. became
is Lieutenant Colonel, then Colonel, and
commander of brigade, and
distinguished himself at the battle of the
Little Blue. The nearest that Col. AM
