Capt. w. w. Hubbard of Aber-
deem, who was detailed by Ad-
jutant Gen. Conklin to effect the
organization, was here last Tues

plement of men examined and en-
rolled. In the evening the COM
pany assem- bled in Harmonic hall
and under the supervision of Capt.
Hubbard made choice of com

been some considerable interest
displayed in regard to selection
of officers the captain made
every provision for full, free
vote, and after outlining the
work and explaining the present
status of the state guard, called
the company to line up and vote.
F. Nelson, DR. Ferguson and
Marvin Niles were appointed tel
lers, and the members Of the
company passed their vote to the
captain as they marched in single
file. For captain there were So
votes cast, Ralph w. Helms re-
ceiving the full 53 votes and
being the unanimous choice of the
company for captain. For 1st
Lieutenant there were also SO

Russia and siberia

A genuine literary treat is in
prospect for Milbank people in
the lecture on the above subject
by Capt. S. Alberti. The story
of his thrilling experience is as
follows:
Russian army eleven years, two years
in Turkey, three years in the Caucas-
ian mountains, and six years in ST.
IBERIA in different capacities, namely:
as engineer in the mines and exile
transporter from place to place, thus
knowing practically the everyday life
throughout Russia and Siberia.
He came to America several years
ago, but had to return to Russia for
the purpose of settling some business
in regard to an estate left him by
! near relative, when he was taken pris-
oner and sent back to Siberia, on this
an honorable capacity, but as an ex-
| lie. He managed to make his escape
through friendly assistance, and will
impart to all the world his experience
and what actually exists in Russia
and Siberia, where there is SO much
suffering and torture.
It will be time we'll spent by anyone
to attend this lecture, as it is instruct
ing and elevating, giving thu men OPP
portunity to learn something they will
never forget in lifetime, and it is
not given by person that has trav-
eled through that country for pleasure,
but from the everyday life OF one that
has passed through all its priyations.
!. The lecture will be followed
with an exhibition of a hundred
stereoptican views and moving
pictures. presenting the cities,
towns and people of Russia and
exile life in Siberia.

NOW HELD FOR MURDER
THE CHARGE AGAINST CHARLES
M'AREE SOON CHANGED.
Ralph sample, the Man He Assaulted
Died Mt the City Hospital
Autopsy Held.

In Police Court. yesterday. Charles Nc
Aree, charged with assault and battery
with intent to kill Ralph Sample, was ar
raigned and the case continued, awaiting
the result Of Samples injuries. Sample
had been taken the night previous TO the
City Hospital and. upon the advice of hos
pital physicians that he was not danger
ously injured, McAree was released upon
bond of $500. Two hours later he was re-
arrested and charged with murder, Sample
having died quite suddenly.
Sample was a sen of Alexander Sample
and lived at 1927 Fletcher avenue. McAree
is twenty years of age and is a son Of
Owen McAree, a grocer, at 1919 English
avenue, the building adjoining the saloon
in which the fight occurred.
There was much surprise among those
who were there at the time of the fight,
and soon thereafter. that the injury should
result in death. There was only a slight
wound on the forehead, and although Sam
pie, while being treated in the saloon, lay
helpless on the floor, it was at that time
thought his condition was due TO liquor
and the shock of the blow he received, or a
fall outside the saloon.
Late yesterday afternoon McAree told
the detectives that he had been playing
pool in the saloon with Walter Hays, and
Sample came in, intoxicated, and asked to
participate in the game. IIe was permitted
to do so and a few minutes later, after he
had lost the game. he began using abusive
language. McAree is married and has one
child. Sample, he said. finally made an in
sulting remark about the child, and he then
told him he would take the child's part, as
he was unable to resent such insults him
self. He said Sample then struck at him,
and after a few blows had been passed, he
took out his knife and struck again at
Sample. He then ran out Of the door, fol-
lowed by Sample. said no blows
were exchanged outside the saloon and
that he stood in the street until Sample,
advancing toward him, fell. A moment lat
er he heard some one say: Joe, take care
him ne had killed Sample. McAree then
went to his home and told his wife of the
trouble and later, upon advice of his
father. went to police headquarters and
the saloon and then sent to the City Hos
pital.
An autopsy was held yesterday afternoon
by Drs. Wynn and Dodds. upon request Of
night. that the small knife wound had un-
dOubtedly been the cause of Samples death,
which resulted from hemorrhage. The
blade had pierced the skull and entered the
brain. There were evidences before his
death of internal hemorrhage and clots
were afterwards found. The brain was not
opened, but will be in a few days, for the
purpose of ascertaining the injury inflicted
upon that organ. No other evidences of in
jury were found about the body.
McAree, after giving himself up and until
late yesterday afternoon, refused TO talk
of the matter, saying that he preferred to
the detectives secured any statement from
him.

STILL ANOTHER CATTERY.
Mrs. Ida Murphy Shirk Has Long Con
Quoted One i'm This City.

Under the mistaken impression that an
article in last Sundays Journal said that
Miss Nellie Harvey Wilson is conducting
the first and only fine cattery in this city,
Mrs. Ida Murphy Shirk writes the Journal
that she is the original explOiter OF blood
ed cats in Indianapolis. Mrs. Shirk gives
some interesting observations concerning
Angora and Persian cats. She says that her
experience with reference to the number
of kittens produced at a birth has been
different from that of Miss Wilson. II
have six from one mother, born July 20,
in a fourishing condition. says Mrs. Shirk,
and nave had as many as seven at one
birth, so you see in that respect they re-
semble the common cat. They are very
intelligent and anectionate and not as
easy to raise as one might suppose. as
any experienced veterinary or one VINO
has tried long enough Will be willing to
confess
Mrs. Shirk says she lost thirteen fine
kittens last summer on account or the
heat and thus far the present summer
has had two To die from the same cause.
She states that some of her cats were eX-
hihited here and in Cincinnati last winter
and in Chicago the preceding winter, and
that they have been FIRST I'm their class
wherever shown. Mrs. Shirk says she has
three Chinchilla cats, which are exceed
inglv rare. no others being in this city
and only a few in the country. All OF her
cats. she asserts, are OF the best pedlsreed
stock, one coming direct from England.
Mrs. Shirk has conducted q Persian and
Angora cattery at her home, 439 North
PENNSYLVANIA street, for the past four
years, and is one OF the early members Of
the Beresford Cat Club Of America, being
at the present time vice president or the
INDIANA branch of that club. Mrs. Robert
J.. McOuat Is also a member OF this club,
and for two years past has owned a num-
Der of fine cats. Mrs. John Mccullough Is
another fancier of fine eats, as was also
the late Mrs. Charles Mcguire.
