Colonel Emerson II. Liscum. who was
killed in the engagement at flemish Sat-
urday, entered the regular army as a pri-
vate in February, 1862, after serving a few
months in a Vermont regiment, of which
State he was a native. He was rapidly
promoted because he was an efficient sol
der. He was made a second lieutenant in
the Twelfth Infantry in March, 1863, and
brevetted captain Aug. 1. 1854. He did
rot reach the rank Of captain until July,
lieutenant colonel in May, 1896, and col
onel of the Ninth Infantry in April, 1899.
he was made brigadier general of volun-
teers i'm August. 1898. and was discharged
Dec. 81, 1899. Lieutenant Colonel Coolidge,
of the same regiment. also entered the
army as a private, while the senior major
of the Ninth, an Indiana man, Jesse NJ.
Lee, entered the regular army as second
lieutenant after serving in the ranks in the
.Fifty-ninth Indiana Volunteers and the
Thirty-eighth u. S. C.. T. Major Lee was
in Manila a few weeks ago. but he is prob
ably now with his regiment in China.
Colonel Liscum was one of the sturdy and
reliable soldiers who honored the service
and won promotion by soldierly conduct.

The warning which the Washington au-

nothing whatever to do with the murder

A Significant Straw.

Salt Lake Tribune.
There is a straw which shows which
way the political breeze is setting in
our Ogden column this morning. A man
took a five years lease on a band of sheep,
agreeing TO pay 10 cents per head per an
mum on the sheep in case Mckinley is
elected, ana % cents in case of Bryan's
election. The lessee is anxious to pay the
higher rental. believing he will make more
money in case he has to pay the 40 cents.
We think that Mr.. Bryan's chances are not
to-day as much as twenty-five is to forty
for McKinley's.
