ALL BUT A FEW.
Company E's Membership Roll is
Nearly Full.

That the reorganization of Company
E, Second Infantry, N. c. c.. will be
completed and the company accepted by
the State within a few days, is now a
certainty. There has been some slight
hesitancy on the part of the members
of the old organization to re-enlist but
they kept coming in, and only a few
names are needed to bring the company
up to the required number of fifty.
The smoker given by the boys Of the
company at their quarters in Armory
Hall last evening was a jolly affair.
There were cards for those who were
lovers of whist; there were pipes for
those who preferred to think (and
smoke; there was drilling for recruits !:
there was speech making galore, and
there was jolly, good time for all
present
And as the evening wore on the rolls
filed up, and what Company E still
lacks will, it is believed, be more than
made up at the campfire to be given by
the Army and Navy League at Pythian
Hall tonight, and at which the men of
Company + volunteers, will appear in
uniforms.
The new names enrolled last evening
y,
before the end of the week the officers
of the company expect to be able to
hand the rolls in to the Adjutant Cen
eral and ask for admission into the Ma
tional Guard. The returns must be sent
in giving each officer the rank he held
when mustered into the volunteer SER
vice.. Thus, Captain John T. Hughes,
who was Lieutenant in the old COM
pany, will be reported as Lieutenant
and not as Captain, to which position
he was promoted while in the volunteer
service, and Lieutenant c. C. King,
late of Battery c, Heavy Artillery, will
go on the roll as Sergeant.
Fifteen of the signers of the COM
pany's rolls were members of Company
F, volunteers; seventeen were members
of the old company-E-and ten are
new men. The names of the forty men
who have signed the roll follow:
Lieutenant J. A McMartin, Lieuten-
ant John L. Hughes, Sergeant Pollard,
Corporal B. F. Nutting, Corporal w. c.

VETERANS ENTERTAINED.
Nothing Was Too Good for the Old
Soldiers

The reception and entertainment Civ
en- by the ladies of Sumner Relief Corps,
No. IL, to the veterans Of Sumner Post.
No. 3, G.. A. R., at ForesteTs' Hall last
evening, was a pronounced success in
every particular. 1t was rather in the
nature of a fraternal visit on the part
of the veterans and they were right
royalty treated.
An excellent program had been ar
ranged, which was thoroughly appre-
cfated by all. 1t consisted of a piano
solo by William Adams; recitation
Miss Burton; plano solo, Mrs Kerr;
vocal solo, Miss Pearl Jackson; piano
duet, Misses Beaton and Boyd; recita-
ton, Mr.. Dole. Most of the numbers
were encored.
AT the conclusion of the regular pro-
gram a number of the veterans of the
post We're called on for remarks and
they were as prompt as in the early
sixties they responded to a call for a
different kind of service.
After all had been said the veterans
were escorted to the banquet-room
where hot coffee and a bounteous repast
was served.

THE FLOWER CARNIVAL.
Miss Lolita Petrie Well in the Lead
for Nav Queen.

There is some talk among the Ma
tive Sons and Daughters of holding the
Dewey Day Fete and Flower Carnival
one day earlier than the I'd Of May, but
no action has yet been taken in the
matter
Governor Gage having proclaimed the
1st of May as a holiday, and as the
banks ard public offices will be closed
on that day, many favor having the
fete then, when the greater NUMBER
of people will be at liberty to attend and
enjoy its many features. The matter
will very soon be decided.
In the balleting for May Queen, II
should be borne in mind that this is
contest to determine who is the most
popular lady in Sacramento. Any LADY
favorably known to the committee IS
eligible
Miss Lottie Petrie has come prom1-
nently to the front with l, l3S votes
against 1896 for Alma Heitman, VINO
has the next highest vote. Following

want the Quspaw nation to pay for
the work that has been done. then
let him say 80 in manly way.
without incorporating aud SLAM
dering those who did the work.
