The coming visit 10 this country OF Prin-
cess Salm Salm will recall TO old residents
her stay in Washington during the Civil
War AL that time her husband, Prince Felix
Constantine Alexander John Nepomucene
Salm Salm L. S. V, was attached to Cen
eral McClellan's staff, and one OF the sights
OF the town in those days was TO see the
Princess and Mrs. Young, escorted by the
Prince and whole cavalcade of officers,
dash madly along the cobble-p paved Avenue
and the streets that led to and from the
camp, somewhere on the other side OF the
Long Bridge.
The Princess was the daughter of a
French artist in Cuba, and from the be-
ginning OF the Civil War to its close was
so enthusiastic in her espousal of the Union
cause that Governor Yates bestowed a cap
tain's commission upon her in recognition
of her services. The Prince himself at the
close of the war received the rank OF brig
adler general, an honor he was proud Of
till his death. When peace came to Amer
lea the soldier returned with his dashing
young wife to Europe. He became an
aid on Maximilians staff and came near
sharing the fate of his ill-starred chief

The STORY OF A BOTTLE.
A Mysterious Message MlraeuIously Found
Floating on the Columbia River.

July 9Th, bottle was picked up near
Scott landing on Long Island. in the Co
lumbia river below Umatilla. The bot.
tie contained a message stating that A.
II. Long was lying at Priest Rapids,
140 miles up the river, with broken leg
and begging for assistance. The message
was dated in pencil July 18th. and was
found by II. E. Patterson. This gentle.
man Immediately forwarded the message
and letter to postmaster Beach, OF Kenne-
wick, who, in turn sent it to postmaster
Sperry here, Sheriff Tucker was notified
and with the advice of county commits
sion Horsly he, being familiar with the
way, started on Wednesday for Priest
Rapids, with medical and other supplies
for the unfortunate mans relief. Priest
Rapids is rather indefinite location, as
the rapids spread for many miles on both
sides of the river and the mans locality
may be hard to find. 1t is promised that
he is A. belong OF Walluls. who lately
went to Priest Rapids to get a raft oil
wood. In that case he is probably in
camp near the river, as his note indicated
he had pencil and paper and doubtless,
also, has supplies TO keep him alive until
Sheriff Tucker reaches him.

Uuder date of May "a, Col. Fife, com.

vice. The Colonel says:
Regular headquarters, with the fol-
lowing companies, are stationed at Pasig ::
Companies E. L. G. X. c, NJ and B, with
total of 10 officers and 434 men for duty.
there being total sick of officers and
l3l men.
These seven companies are crowded
for quarters in some cases, one whole
dwelling and with no drainage they are
in q very unhealthy condition and will
be much worse during the rainy season.
1.-THE troops at this point cover over
three miles of trenches along the Pasig
and San Mateo rivers and the canal, be-
sides a surrounding line of outposts, nine
in number. ranging from 200 to 300 yards
out from the trenches. The men have
constructed shelter and in most cases inn
provised cots Each company furnishes
five men for regular scouting duty, and
we operate two ferries, which require
about nine men.
1.-The regiment has iaken prominent
part IN the following engagements: The
battles of blockhouse IL, Paco church,
Pandacsn, ingalong, San Pedro. Macate,
first battle of Peteros, second battle OF

ability. The specially performances are
fine, especially the singing and dancing
OF two little tots that accompany the

the lighter roles Of comedy where they
shine, in comparison to heavy melo-
