Result of Trouble at Recent
Encampment.
Court Of Inquiry Reports to Com
mander Of Second Infantry
That Selma Guards are In
efficient and Should
Be Disbanded.

Colonel Z. H. Graves. commanding the
End Infantry Alabama National Guard,
has recommended to Adjutant General w
w. Brandon the immediate muster out
Of the Selma Guards, Company C, Ind
Infantry.
The commanding officer Of the End In
fantry further recommends. on account
Of the manifest stability and worth Of
some Of the officers and members of the
company, that a new company be organic
ed in Selma in place OF the old.
Colonel Graves's recommendations were
based upon the findings of the Court of
Inquiry. which convened at Selma Octo-
Der q. The court was composed of Lieu
tenant Colonel H. B. May of the Ind In
fantry. Major d. NJ. Scott Of the Brigade
Staff, Major c. r.. Bricken of the End
Infantry. Captain /. N. Eddy Of the
Pettus Artillery at Selma and Captain E.
b. Joseph, Jr.. Of the Montgomery Greys
The court was convened principally to
investigate the INSTRUMENTATION of Com
pany C at Camp Foster in Selma last
July.
1t will be recalled that nearly every nom
commissioned officer and enlisted man
marched out of the camp in defiance of
their company officers. Between the Of
ficers and men of the command dissen-
sion had been previously shown. The
trouble eliminated In an attempt made
by Captain William Quinn to have Bugler
OFlynn arrested for refusing to do guard
duty. The non-commissioned officers of
the company refused to make the arrest.
Taking advantage of the time when the
remainder of the regiment was at dinner
the entire company marched out of the
camp and went to the city.
1t is said that since the encampment the
men and officers have patched up their
differences, but at that time charges and
counter-charges were made by the men
and officers. The men accused the Of
ficers of neglect Of duty and indifference
and the officers charged the men with
desertion and characterization.
Colonel Graves was not disposed to
condone so serious a breach of discipline
as an entire company leaving camp In
defiance of officers. On the day Of the
occurrence he determined that the AFFAIR
should be thoroughly investigated and
that some action should be taken in
preservation of regimental discipline. To
probe into the affair he appointed the

anything more daring than that con-
sumption is a plague and must be SUD-

On His Feet.
Notwithstanding all these limitations
the prince made a speech at the Guild
hall just after his return from the col
onial tour in which ne INFORMED the
country that it was time for it to
wake up, as he expressed it, Others
had made the same discovery some
time before but, coming from the
Prince of Wales, this statement was
deemed quite startling, and he has been
looked upon since then as a man who
might at any moment have another
lightning flash of intuition.
After a comparison of their public
utterances it seems that the prince has
somewhat more originality than his
father. But his manner Of speaking
doesn't compare We'll with that of the
king. He halts and hesitates with all
the nervousness of a commencement
orator. His voice lacks the ring of as
surance. He keeps close 10 MS manu-
script usually and gives one the i'm
preston that he would like to preface
his remarks by observing: Really,
you know, i expect you'll be bored; but
it isn't nay fault I wouldn't be taking
your time. if / could help it, but there
are certain things that am expected
to say, and we have got to get through
with 1t somehow. You can trust me

sort or cooperative corporation whose
stockholders are members of the prin-
cipal lumber and logging firms of this
territory, and in which nearly all of
the companies operating here are rep
resented. It's president is H. G. Akely,

intendent, r. H. Chute, of the same
city. It is affiliated to some extent with

has its general offices in the same

Field of Operations.
The principal field of operations is a
section of the river reaching for near
ly two miles along, what are known as
the bottom lands of the old Crosby
farm, 800 or more acres of which were
purchased by the boom company from
the owners of the Crosby estate All
natural indications are to the effect
that these bottom lands were once
the natural bed of the river, and it is
an interesting fact that recently there
have been found buried in the sand
upon land which is now high and
dry" so to speak, remnants of stone
piers such as are used in boom work
which would indicate that boom and
rafting operations were carried on at
this same point many years ago..
On the river bottom near the boom
the company boards it's employees in
manner somewhat after the fashion of
lumber camp in the woods, except for
the fact that, being permanent, the
buildings which constitute the menage
are more substantial and more COM
Portable. This camp, as it is called, is
remote from any other dwelling and

the well-night universal impression is
that he has rather improved on. ac-
quaintance. There are English folk
who claim to have discovered in him
positively brilliant qualities and have
even diScerned in him incipient states
manship. There are plenty of others
who privately observe that his royal
highness never had an idea in his life
and in the ordinary course of nature
cannot reasonably be expected ever
to have one If you point out to them
that three or four public addresses the
prince has made since his return from
his colonial tour have contained
good deal more meat than one expects
from royalty, it is retorted that the
speeches are written for him.
Of course, the truth lies between
these extremes, except as regards the
story that his speeches are written for
him. l have pretty good authority for
saying that the prince faithfully writes
his own speeches. OF course, his sec
rotary grubs up the facts for him, just
as any speakers secretary does, but the
prince goes over them and puts them
together as patiently and precisely as if
he were preparing a thesis for an ex-
animation.
AS Duke of York, Prince George had
good deal of fun. Whether or not
he was madly in love with the princess
whom Fate bestowed upon him after
the death OF his elder brother, to whom
she was engaged, he was manifestly
pleased with the sturdy, fair haired
children whom the storks have brought
him in unwearied procession. 1t ap-
peared that he would rather play with
the children than do much Of anything
else, except possibly go shooting or SAL
mon fishing. He abominated fuss and
feathers, forms and ceremonies, and
was particularly pleased when he could
roam around the London streets with
out being recognized. Oddly enough,

ST. Paul BOOM Handles Millions Of Logs

To the generality of residents of st.
Paul and vicinity a mention of the
name of the st. Paul Boom company is
not accompanied by any idea OF the
magnitude or extent of the operations
of that important factor in the logging
and lumber business of this portion of
the Northwest. A large proportion of
st. Paul and Minneapolis people know
in general way that there is some
boom work being done along the Mis-
sissippi river between the cities, and
some Of them have perhaps given some
cursory attention in passing I'D or
down the river to the sheer boom, the
network of log races and the brails of
logs which occupy the stream for a
distance of about two miles, but only
those directly interested in logging or
lumber operations have any true con-
ceptiOn Of the proportions of this en-
terprise.
The purpose of the st. Paul boom
is to catch the logs that come through
the dams at Minneapolis, to sort them
with reference to their various own
ers as indicated by the marks upon
them, and to brazil them up and raft
them for shipment to some designated
point of destination. This in the abb
Stract would perhaps appear simple
enough, but when it is considered that
in the year 1901 there were $50, 0O0, 900
feet of logs thus handled some idea
may be formed OF the work entailed.
There are now employed by the COM
pany at the boom and rafting grounds
and in that vicinity about 200 men,
most OF whom are necessarily expert
enced in the work required of them.
The st. Paul Boom company, al
though operated independently, is a
