MILITIA SHAKE -UP.
Brigades Will Be Consol-
idated and Number Of
Officers Reduced.


TRENTON, Nov. Is, 1898. There Is to be
a reduction in the roster OF the officers of
the National Guard within the next few
months. which will place that organiza-
tion on a regular army footing. The re-
duction is not to be confined to the officers
having regular commands, but there will
be q general shake-up in the list OF ofil-
GERS on the retired list, who are entitled
to wear all the gilt lace Of their various
ranks on special State occasions. Cover
nor Voorhees, yesterday announced u
special commission to take up the work
of reorganizat ton. The commission is to
go over present statutes relating to the
National Guard and condense and codify
them. Major General William j. Sewell
commander of the division, is at the head
Of the commission. The other members
are General Bird w. Spencer, General Pc
ter F. Wanser, General Edward A Camp
bell. Commander Washington Irving and
Captain Barton B. Hutchinson The last
named Is a lawyer, being judge advocate
of the Second Regiment.
The creation of this commission has
been under consideration for some time,
and those who are posted on the matter
say that the work of the commission will
be a change In the construction Of the
guard. There will be an abolition OF very
many positions of high rank, while few
minor offices that are needed in the SER
vice will be created The staffs of the
Quartermaster General and the Inspector
General of Rifle Practice are to be abol-
ished, and the ranks of many Of the high
grade officers will be cut down SO as to
compare with the regular army. Off
GERS who have been breveted will not be
entitled to appear at public functions
wearing the uniform Of their advanced
rank. and provision will be made for
dropping officers from the retired list af-
ter certain age limit
A well posted military officer in dis
cussing the proposed condensation and all
teratlon of the National Guard law, said
that 1t is likely that the division of the
National Guard will be abolished, the two
brigades now existing being consolidated
into one. This will not reduce the NUM-
Der of men in the service, but will cut
the list of officers in half
One brigade staff and the division staff
will be entirely dispensed with. The ad-
jutant of the brigade will only have the
rank of captain. The nspector-general
and judge advocate-general will have the
rank of colonel instead Of brigadier-gen-
eraI. as at present. The Offices of the
assistant Acknowledgements and deputy adj
jutant-general will in all probability be
abolished.
There will be no reductions until the
expiration of existing commissions. or the
officers resign. The changes will brirg
relief from the top-heaviness which has
weighed down the New Jersey National
Guard for many years

A NARROW ESCAPE.
End OF m Adirondack Hunting Trip
Involving n Load of Hay
and IA Fire,

That story" said a sportsman, after
listening to a thrilling experience
which a friend once had with Il runa.
way team attached to a farm wagon.
reminds me of an exciting and nearly
fatal ride that | had on a hay cart when
up in the Adirondacks shooting last
November.
Il had been tramping about In the
mountains all day shooting cartridges.
quail and all other game that came
within reach of my gun, and late in
the afternoon, when my bag was full.
came to the conclusion that | had
had a fair days sport and would go
home. But | did not realize how tired
was until | started on my journey,
and the fact that had a heavy load to
carry for five miles before | reached
the farmhouse where | was staying was
anything but pleasant to contemplate.
However, | had gone about n mile on
the country road when ] heard the
rumbling of Il vehicle behind me, and
on looking around ! saw a big wagon
loaded with hay. The driver soon
caught up to me, and, learning that he
was going a short distance from where
stayed, | asked him to give me a ride.
tie gave me permission, stopped his
horses, and, when ! had scrambled up
on top, lay down in the hay, and we
went swaying and swinging pleasantly
down the road.
Il was just thinking of presenting
the old farmer with a few birds. when
suddenly there was a bang! My gun,
from which | had omitted to take the
cartridges, had gone off. The horses
gave a jump and the driver rolled off
his seat into the ditch, where he lay
stunned and motionless.
Then discovered that my gun had
set fire TO the hay, and | thought it
was about time for me to jump for the
road. The horses were tearing along
the road as fast as they could run, but
| crawled for the side OF the hay and
slid for the ground.
The tail of my stout hunting coat
caught on the top of a sharp-pointed
standard, and there | hung to the
ca~reening wagon that threatened to
upset and dump n load of burning hay
on me at every turn in the highway.
The fire was cracking and burning
tiercely, and could feel the flames get
ting nearer and nearer to my legs.
Still the horses ran, and still my coat,
in spite of all the wriggling | could do,
held me fast to that seething mass of
lame. My trousers began getting I'M
comfortably hot, and then | observed
with horror that the tail of my coat
was on fire. The next moment the
loose cartridges in my pockets began
exploding from the heat, and then /
smelled my birds broiling."
"Well, you were not cremated," said
a listener. What happened next?"
Il had just made up my mind that
! was going to be roasted alive when the
tai! of my coat burned off, and | was
thrown into II ditch full of water on
the roadside. Presently, when mad
recovered my senses, | got up, brushed
the mud from my clothes and resumed
my journey without stopping to see
what had become of the horses, my gun,
or the old farmer. The next morning
! took the first train for New York,
and thus ended n of the most exciting
shooting trips | have ever had."-N. Y.
