NEW FORTE-FIFTH INFANTRY
REGIMENT IS READY AS TO
NUMBERS
NO CHANCE FOR TARGET WORK

There BEING No Range Available for
Practice With the New Long
Range Rifles, the Regiment viii
Have to Wait Until 1t Can Reach
the COaSt-Large Batch of Re-
crufts Yesterday.
Col Dorst. of the Forty-ffth regiment,
will today notify the war department
that he has a full regiment of volun-
teers, and is awaiting further orders.
Capt. o. P. Lee reached the camp yes
terday morning with fifty more recruits
from indianapolis, making the total
number Of men now in camp LOO. The
two companies at Vancouver that have
been recruited in the state of Washing
ton have a full complement of men and
will join the regiment when 1t is or
dered West. Including the band starr
and field officers the total strength OF
the regiment is 1859.
The Forty-ffth regiment has been Or
panized for service in the Philippines and
will doubtless be ordered away within
short time, but before taking trans
ports for the other side of the world
they will remain some time in San
Francisco, as it is the intention of the
war department to put the new regiments
of volunteers in the field fully equipped
and thoroughly practlced in the drill and
use of arms.
Some correspondence has been had
with Gov. Lind regarding the use of the
a. at
by the Forty-hfth but from all ind.ca-
lions the new soldiers will have no
instruction in rife practice until San
Francisco is reached. The governor IS
perfectly willing that the range should
be used, but the people living around the
camp grounds claim that shooting with
Krag- Jorgensons is dangerous, and the
last time the regulars from the Third
attempted to use the range the people
Whereabouts secured an injunction from
the courts and further shooting was put
an end to as was the case with the
practice on the new rifle range on the
Fort Smelling military reservation. When
the Lake City rifle range was built it
was for Springfield rifles, but since then
more modem and longer ranged imple-
ments of war have been put in the hands
of the soldiers and the old facilities for
target practice do not fit the new gun.
There is not a range in the state avail
able for practice with the Krags.
The regiment now has nearly forty
commissioned officers present, and when
all have reported there will be more Of
ficers than places, A number will doubs-
less be transferred to other regiments.
According to reports sixteen first lieu
tenants have been assigned to the regi-
ment. The following officers reported
at the camp for duty yesterday: Lieut..
y. S. Tibbetts Capt. George w. Rick
man, Lieut.. Allen Baker, Maj. Thee

All England Enthusiastic Over Sham

LONDON, Oct. 4.-The result of the
race was announced in London music
halls last night and gave rise to scenes
of urbourded enthusiasm, the band play
ing English, Irish and American airs
Many flags were displayed and the artists
sang appropriate songs while vociferous
cheers were given for Sir Thomas Lip

The New York correspondents Of the
morning papers express admirati ton for
and surprise atthe Sharnrocks fine show
ing in light winds and express the opin-
ion that she las a good chance to win
the cup.
The Daily Mail says editorially:
The race must have been elevating to
the Americans. The hope that the cue
will return to England now runs high
The Daily Graphic, in common with
all the other papers, expresses regret
at the abandonment of the race and says
it thinks the Royal Ulster Yacht club
may be excused If it begins to ask what
1t shall do with the cup when it getsit
The Daily Chronicle comments in a
similar strain, and says: THE Shamrock

an English boat. She has shown that she
can sail as we'll as the Columbia with a
cupful of wind. and this Will give added
zest to the other races.

This may be a compromise, but it is
gratifying to know it Is unanimous. It is
the first recorded instance where a Judge

not doubt that the United States will

One of the counsel for Great Britain

THE award practically confirms the
Judgment of Sir Robert Schomburgh,
whose line it follows, except in a few par
ticulars. Great Britain acquires the
whole of the river Cuyune, including a
sit which Venezuela intended to be a
fort at the junction of the Curumu and

been awarded to Venezuela. possibly on
the principle of national security, but
with the condition that the Oronico shall
be free waterway to all nations This
piece of land covers about thirty square
miles. 1t had been offered with much
land by every British foreign minister
since the time of Lord Aberdeen.
Great Britain has substantiated all
most all her extreme claim. All the valu-
able plantations and gold fields are now
indisputably settled with British terri
ory.'

A woman always has lot of SYM
pathy for n man who pretends he
hasn't any for himself.
The average girl has an idea that

A man feels sort of queer when he
hears that the woman he was once

When two men quarrel one of them
is wrong; when two women quarrel
both of them are.
What God and the angels do not

At the bottom of half of the mar

wife, and at the bottom of the other
half is an indulgent husband.
For the first six months the aver

wife ever came to do it; for the next
six he wonders how he ever came to
