There were 9s,361 recruits obtained

bronze cannon captured in Pekin to
Count Won Waldersee. The gun, which
is $50 years old, was used by the Chi
nese in their siege of the foreign Iega-
tions.
1t has always been an unwritten law
in the New York navy yard that no
salute shall be fired on Sunday. Even
when President Mckinley died the
minute guns were not fired until next
day, yet the long-established rule was
violated when Prince Henry arrived.

the rifle will rest in leather socket

muzzle being attached to the left
