Mustered Out.

Edward Haley, of the 36th, o. V. l.,
died February 25th, at Macksburg. He
was born in Ireland, and came to Am
erica at the age of six years. He was
married in West Virginia, but his wife
proceeded him to the grave 20 years
ago. Three daughters survive him,
one living in Wheeling, W. Va, and
two in Belmont county, Ohio. In July,
1898, being homeless, he went to the
home of VIM. Wickens. near Macks-
burg and asked to be taken in, as he
was getting feeble and could not pro-
vide for himself. Since that time they
had clothed. fed and cared for him as
though he was a member of the fam
lily. This was not done for money, as
he had none, but through charity
which was fully appreciated.

Unnecessary Alarm.

BY Associated Presa
Pekin, March General Gaselee's
orders to have 1000 men ready, should
the Chinese prove recalcitrant, created
unnecessary alarm among the powers.
He was only obeying former instruc-
tions from Count Won Waldersee. No
one now believes an expedition to the
interior will be made.
The first troops to leave China arc
the Australians, Victorian and New
South Wales naval contingents leading
off.
General Chaftee's orders to send Un-
tied. States troops to the Philippines
include all except two companies of in
fantry, which Major Edgar B. Robert
son will probably command.
