CaRteen FGatuTs Promotes Tem- psraDce and MOraIityOf Men,
 Says Colonel Reade GEN. BRECNNRIDGE'S REPORT The Expression "AII Officers Are Tho roughly instructed and Efficient"
 Is Not Heard So
 Frequently.

Washington Octobes 3O.-The annual report of Inspector-General J. c. Breck- inridge says that while there are re- parts of harmony and good will among the officers of the army, the expression "all officers are thoroughly instructed and efficlens' is not heard so frequently as before the Spanish war. due, no doubt, to the influx of young and inexperienced officers Most reports, however, are fa- vorable. Some lack of attention given by officers to their daily life and duties is noted. The report commends the sa- gacity and ability of officers who have conducted civil affairs entrusted to them abroad.
 The class of recruits received is report ed generally to to the standard. The dis cipline of the troops is reported generally good.
 eral says:
 Condition Of Post Exchanges.
 ''The reports show thar wherever prac- ticsb post exchanges were nt opera tion at the garrisoned DOSES at the time of the inspector's visits, the prescribed rules and regulations were being fully compiled with, and that their business was generally being satisfactorily con ducted. A majority of the posts at which exchanges are maintained were inspected before the law prohibiting the safe of beer ir the carteens were enacted, and most of the reports would not show the effect of that law upon them. At scme of the posts inspected. it was since reported that the exchange was closed, as it was being operated at a less after the sale of beer was prohibited. while at others the operations under existing law were stated to oe upsatisfsctory, yh gentir,ent of tho army on the subject is well known and is given expression in inc following remarks of the inspectors general:
 Colonel Burton (Cuba) says: officers generally complain that the elimination of beer has worked hardship on the sol dier and has been detrimental to good order and military discipline"
 Opinions of Officers.
 Lieutenant Colonel Reade (Dakota) re- ports the concensus of opinion is that the canteen feature promotes the tenn perance morality, discipline and health of the men,.
 Major Sharpe (Colorado) considers the anti-canteen legislation of last winter ill., advised and rem. rks that ifTthere is no authorized and d. ,ently kesst place of re- sort within a garrison wfess the soldier can find recreati T to his tastes and sta ton of life, he II seek iss outside, and the innumerabie othels a.tt whisky dens which are spr,Asing up in, ahe edge of reservations. will prove the most baleful and destructive enemy to contentment and good order which a garrison can be cursed with"
 Colonel Sanger (Philippines) reports "The suppression of the capteen has practically suspended all post exchanges in these islands between officers and en- listed men. If 1t is probable that they can be re-established the men will hearti- ly cooperate"

Rich Claim Reported Sold

Clarence Berry, the Klondikc king is
reported to have purchased the Picottc
& Hall claim at No. Il Eldorado Tor a
consideration OF $I25.ooO. Ii the re
port is confirmed it means the trans
fer OF one OF the richest placer claims
in the world and the greatest financial
deal that has been made in the Klon-
dixie for year past.
The deal is said to have been com
pleted Saturday, when cash sum OF
S25,o was paid to bind it. The re
naming 100000 is to be paid on bed
rock in the course OF year.
No. II Eldorado has been famous
since the Klondikc was struck and pro-
1uced, it is estimated. upwards OF
three-quarters OF million dollars. 1t
was located in 1896 by French Joe
Costello, who sold it to Jim Hall and
n. Picotte for 5000 The following
spring, when the new owners discoy-
cred how rich their property was, they
presented French Joe" with Is feet OF
the claim, which he sold shortly after
ward for a large sum.
