ANNIVERSARY.

Today is the 39th anniversary of the
first days battle at Gettysburg. The
Forth-seventh Virginia regiment partici-
pated in that fight. Thirty-nine years
ago today we started out from Cashtown
very early in the morning and we had
gone but short distance when our adj
vance encountered Buford's cavalry. A
lively skirmish commenced which was
kept up for quite awhile. About one
O clock in the afternoon the fight waxed
hotter. General Archer's famous Ten
nessee brigade was drawn into an am
buscade and lost many men in killed,
wounded, and prisoners. Gen. Archer
himself was wounded and taken prisoner.
The fight now became general. Our old
brigade, known as "Field's," ut this time
was commanded by the gallant Colonel
peterborough, and the enemy fought
us hard from start to finish, fighting at
close quarters. We lost many men in
killed and wounded but we gained a
signal victory, capturing many prisoners.
1t was here we met the Iron brigade from
the west; they were as fine looking
body of soldiers as we had ever met on
the field and fought bravely to finish.
When forced to surrender they threw
their guns down at our feet andwe shook
hands over the bloody chasm. The first
question they asked us was if we were
the Stonewall brigade. We told them
''No, we were some of the same stock,
Virginians. They said, 1--WE were made
up in Michigan and Iowa, to come here
and whip that famous Stonewall brigade
but if they fight any harder than you
boys have done this evening we never
want to see them" Thus ended one of
the hardest fought battles of the civil
war with glorious triumph to the Con-
federate arms. Now we behold the horror
of the battle field; the dead and the dy
ing are strewn all over the hill side, it is
ghasely sight. Such is war, we can
never forget this day. Some people say
we should forget these things. Tell me
how can the battle scared ones forget
these things, when they are hallowed
memories to those who followed Stonewall
Jackson and Robert +. Lee. We can
never forget the day we entered the
cnemy's rich country where everything
was full and plenty. 1t was then that
our hearts were sad when we looked back
to old Virginia with her devastated
fields and war trodden ground / say
we cannot forget these things.

Isles of Pines has bobbed up again; this
time in the shape of numerously signed
petition from residents and property
owners of the Island asking the Secretary
of State to take steps through treaty

the island The petition recites that a
state of chaos exists in the island owing
to the sudden withdrawal of the military
administration and the temporary substi-
tuition therefore of a municipal govern
ment of the small town which serves as
the capital of the island. AS the Isle OF
Pines has been left outside the
constitutional limits Of Cuba by an ex-
press provision of the Plat amendment

THE STRIKE

HazeltOn, Pa, July 1.-Exciting
scenes are being enacted on the country
roads about Drifton today. Striking
miners are marching, headed by fife and
drum corps, and every effort is being
made to prevent men from entering the
colliery. This concern recently stated
that an attempt would be made today to
open one Of the departments at Drifton
mine. The strikers have declared that
this would not be allowed and this morn
ing the department was not opened.
The few men who attempted to go to
work were turned back.
Old Forge, Pa, July This morn
ing the body of an Italian was found
just outside the mine barricade of tho
William A. cOlliery. One side of the
mans head had been blown off evidently
by charge from a shot gun. The theory
is that the man was attempting to enter
the coliery yard last night and was shot
by one of the company guards. Scores
of angry Italians swarm about the mine
making threats of vengeance. The depu-
ties have possession of the Italian body.
The strikers are determined to secure the
remains. Some of them have threatened
to blow up the colliery before midnight.
Hazelton, Pa, July 1.-The entrance
to all the colieries in this region were
this morning guarded by the strikers
with the result that many men turned
back, causing thorough tie-up of all
operations.

HICKS FOR JULY

A Venus disturbance is central on the
2nd, extending its influence beyond the
middle of the month. The effects of this
Venus period will be very marked during
the regular Vulcan storm period extend
ing from the 4th to the 10th. On the
4th and 9Th the moon is at her extreme
declination north, in perigree, and at
new moon. These facts, added to other
existing causes, foreshadow warm wave
ofgreat intensity, high per cent. of
atmospheric humidity, and some wicked
storms Of thunder, wind, rain and hail.
Change to quite cool for the season may
be expected on the heels Of these disturb
ances. The reactionary storms due
about the 18th to the 18th will most prob
ably develop on and touching the 10th.
Excessively warm weather will exist
prior to storm EXAMINATIONS at this time.
The opposition of the planet Saturn falls
on the 18th, and unless frequent and
general electrical storms occur to break
up the concentration Of solar energy,
prolonged term ofintensely warm weather
will continue through all the central
part of the month. 1t is to be hoped
that the three great planets, Uranus,
Saturn, and Jupiter, have since the
summer of 1901, separated far enough !
from each other to divide the concentrate |
ed stream of solar energy through which |
our globe then passed. If we do not
have such broken up order during July |
and August, but time of prolonged |
heat, with little electrical phenomena. |
general and severe drought will prevail

KING EpWARD,s CONDITION.

London. July For the frat time
since the operation was performed on
King Edward, just week ago today,
his physicians this morning issued q
bulletin regarding his msjesty's condi-
ton. which was unqusli6edly satisfac-
tory. The announcement which would
seem to indicate that the King il now
ON the high road to eonvslescence was
posted at Buckingham Palace st 10
O'clock this morning and read a. fol-
lows: e'The king passed an excellent
night of natural sleep. He has gained
strength and has made substantial i'm
provement in all respects"
Added to the thoroughly hopeful
tone of the official bulletin the sp-
pearance of Queen Alexandra at the
review of the Colonial troops today,
showed conclusiyely that the brightest
hopes of the kings recovery are now en-
tertained in all official quarters. The
best semi-official information today Is
that while the bulletins accurately re-
fleet the state Of the kings wound, his
majestys general heaith SUN causes
much uneasiness and the constitutional
conditions which caused the original at
tack are not greatly improved.
London, July 1.-The expert of the
Westminster Gazette writing of the
Kings condition today says; "The
wound is healing slower than the sur
geons anticipated. The public will dc
well to watch the bulletins carefully for
the next day or two" The statements
that the King is troubled with cancer,
the expert says, are absolutely untrue
London, July 1.-The following bull
letin regarding the kings condition wa:
posted al the palace at o'clock this
evening: "The advancement in the
kings condition is maintained. Hi;
appetite is improving and the dressing
of the wound less painful. His majesty
is still easily fitigued by the least exer-
ton"

REVIEW OF COLONIAL TROOPS.

London, July IA big crowd
gathered outside of Buckingham Palace
and in the open spaces Of st. James Park
early this morning for the review of the
Colonial troops which took their posi-
tons along the Mall and on Constitution
Hill. At eight O'Clock the English regi-
ments and Guards and Grenadiers made
their appearance. The Duke of Con-
naught headed the march. In the force
lined up for review the most picturesque
were the small detachments of troops
representing the % colonies including
Fiji, Hong Kong, Gambia, Ceylon, and
Others. The $50 Canadians and 400
Australians, who led the line of march,
were not as picturesque as regards uni
form, yet they received the greatest at
tention from the crowds of onlookers.
The total number of troops was 2, 1879.
After marching down Constitution Hill,
all took their positions along the Mall
and in the Horse Guards parade. AT
l / o'clock the royal party Of four car
riages, in which were the queen and
princess, emerged from the palace
grounds and drove down the lines The
Prince of Wales was almost unnoticed,
everyone straining to see the queen at
this, her first public appearance since
the operation was performed on the king.
The queen smiled and bowed in ANNA
ted fashion to the cheering crowds. The
crowd then cheered the Prince of Wales
in a hearty manner. Cheers followed
for Earl Roberts and other distinguished
guests who occupied adjacent stands
which had been erected for the corona
ton. After the review the Prince Of
Wales presented Victoria crosses and
distinguished service orders to a number
! of the COlOnials.
