The twentieth Century Store.

c. NJ. Cole removed yesterday and
today into his new building which he
has had thoroughly repaired and re-
built. He had sold his stock down
pretty low, but several orders for new
goods have come in, in the past few
days and he has been busy putting
them on the shelves alo.
The way the boxes of new goods and
the dry goods and groceries from / j.;
old store room were piled around fer a
while, it was matter of wonder
where Mr.. Cole would be able to put
all the goods he had bought. But two
days of diligent labor by himself and
his efficient clerks have brought order
out of chaos and now the stock is n &C.
~ displayed from shelving and show
case.
Mr.. Cole believes in being up to date
and has therefore christened his new
store 1.-THE goth Century" and will
conduct it on Goth century methods.
Call and see. his new store and new
stock of goods.

Last Sunday morning between the

her family of four children in Arcade

the family had barely time to get out
of. the house before it was enveloped
in the flames.

generous heart of the neishborhCod

Gen. MlH's Report
Objects To Increasing Power Of
Staff Departments.

Lieut.. Gen. Miles, in his annual report,
gives the total strength Of the army at the
present time as S4,513, of which number
1854 are in the United States, 43 .239 in
the Philippines, and 4.914 in Cuba. The
Porto Rico, Hawaii, China and Alaska.
he says il is expected the force in Cuba will
be very much reduced, and hopes that the
force in the Philippines also can be reduced
Gen. Miles does not approve of the pre-.
sent organization Of the artillery corps, say.
ing that it establishes another bureau in
Washington. he be ieyes in the former
regimentsl organization. Speaking OF the
army cauteen, which is abolished by the
army reorganization law, he says that no
injury has resulted, and in the main the law
has been beneficial. He expresses bis oh.
jections TO the management Of military
affairs ir the War Department in the fol.
lowing language:
While congress has made ample provi-
sion for the management of military affairs
in the organization of the army, whereby
the G, npanies, regiments, brigades, divi
sions and departments are made the units of
administration and by statutes has clothed
BIG OHOioic uVb OuAy Win OACOuhtO dubuOIl-
ty but with Judicial power and responsible
81, yet the tendency has been to absorb and
nsurp the entire conduct of the military
establishment in the city of Washington
and especially in the staff departments.
This has been found most Injurious in
other armies, and is one of the principal
defects in our own system. The evil has
been increasing during the activities Of the
wars of the last three years to an extent
that, in my judgment, requires serious
consideration, and l recommend that decen.
tralization be effected as far as possible,
and that all proper and lawful authority be
restored to subordinate commanders who
are provided with an efficient organization
and who can be safely intrusted with respon
sibility for the efficient and faithful admi
nistrstion Of military affairs commensurate
with their important command"
LAS q arge portion Of the army is station.
ed in the western part of the United
States, and mole than one.half west of the
Pacific Ocean, Gen. Miles recommends the
establishment of military school in south.
