 T. The recommendation of the com manding officer of the End Infantry, Ala bama National Guard, suggesting the mastering out of company c. 2nd Infan- try. Alabama National Guard, is hereby approved. .. ss Nr,& e.
 '2. Colonel F. H. Graves. commanding 2nd Infantry, Alabama National Guard. will at once detail some officer of this regiment to muster out company c, End Infantry, Alabama National Guard
 g. The commanding officer of company c. 2nd Infantry, will turn over all prop erty to the officer mastering the company out. and such officer will make direct re- port to the commanding oficer and to the Adjutant General of all property now in the custody of Company c.

 '4. The commanding officer of the 2nd Infantry, Alabama National Guard. will take proper care of all such property and send direct to the Adjutant General a 1nemOTdnOuI1 receipt tHeTeLOT.
 By command of the Governor:
 "W. W. Brandon.
 'Adjutant General The muster out of the Selma company will leave a vacancy in the End Infantry. There will. however. be no difficulty in filling the vacancy. Every town or city of importance in Alabama. which has no military company. has organizations which are petitioning for places in the National Guard of the State.
 Colonel Graves has recommended to the Adjutant General that precedence be given to a petition from Selma should any be filed from there. The 2nd is made up of companies from cities situated in Middle Alabama. Selma is one of the largest cities in that portion of the State and 1t is held that the city should have an infantry company. It is understood that number of young men of Selma who were not connected with the old company will organize and petition for the vacant place. In that event they will. in all probability, be given precedence.
 Union Springs has for several monthf been an applicant for d place. Next to Selma it is said the organization ip that city has the best chance for admission to the Guard

 The formal mastering out or the con pany will be done by an ofncer "ho wI1A be named by Col. E. H. Graves com manding the regiment.
 The order issued by Adjutant General Brandon yesterday directed the muster out of the company by some onpoer to DO detailed by Colonel Graves. and who VIII take charge of the company's property
 The muster out of the Selma company is due to it's action in leaving Camp Henry B. Foster at Selma last July In deAapce of It's officers. The officers ana men of the company had not preViously been in accord. The outbreak came when all non-commissioned officers refused to obey the command of Capt. w. l.. 0ulnn to arrest and carry member or the company to the guard house. While the other companies of the regiment were at dinner the members of the Selma com pany quietly marched out or the camp to their homes in the city.
 Ry order of Colonel Graves a special Court of Inquiry convened at Selma In October to investigate the occurrence. Colonel Graves was at no time disposed to oondone the serious breach of discip- hne, He announced as soon as 1t happen cd that the affair would be investigated thoroughly and proper action for the preservation of the discipline of the regi- ment would be taken.
 The Court of Inquiry, composed of five officers, who sat without pay was charg- cd with the duty of Investigating not only ahe company's alleged insubordination. but it's general condition and its care of the property entrusted to 1t.
 In its report the Court of Inquiry found that the company was guilty of an act of characterization in leaving camp; that it was not efficient; that 1t failed in various ways to meet the requirements of mili- tary company as laid down in the State law and that the company took practical ly no care of the uniforms and other property entrusted to it. The Court rec commended in its report to Colonel Graves that the company be mustered out of the Alabama National Guard.
 The recommendation was endorsed by

History of a Coat.

A curious story of the clothmaking days of Newbury, England. has lately been recalled. The town is restoring it's Jacobean Cloth Hall as memorial to the late Queen. and Sir Nicholas Throck- morton has presented to the restoration fund a coat with a history. In 1S11 an ancestor of Sir Nicholas, Sir John Throckmorton, wagered 100 pounds that he would dine in a coat that had been on the sheeps back at o'clock on the same morning Two sheep were shorn in the morning; in eleven hours the fleece had become cloth; in two hours and twenty minutes the cloth had become a coat. and Sir John sat down to dinner in the presence of 5000 people who had assembled to see whether the bet was won or lost.
