STATE ~NNCAMPMENT
Preparations Going on.
Capt. Adrian Makes q Pointed
statement.

The Messenger yesterday contained
he entire details of the encampment
of the Second Regiment. North Caro-
lima National Guards, which COM
mences Wednesday at Morehead. Now,
there seems to be some re-
Iuctance on the part of employers to
give the boys a vacation IN order to
attend the encampment. This should
not be, as the grand old Light Infan-
try is an organization that justly de-
mands support. It possesses a match
less record and will continue to possess
such, to the honor of Wilmington, if
given only the support it is rightly en-
titled to. The company must go to
this state m with sufficient
numbers. Relative to this Captain A.
P. Adrian, of the company. last night
made the following statement:
The new military regulations require
each company to carry into a
ment Is per cent. of it's roll. Failure
to carry this per centage is visited by
the disbanding of delinquent compa-
MES. Up to this hour 1 have not sue
ceeded in getting the requisite num-
Der of members to entitle the Light
Infantry to enter encamDment. Are
the business men of Wilmington pre-
pared to see the onlv military com
pany in the city disband? The com
pany would be absent ny six days,
and l make this public appeal with
entire confidence hat employers will,
for the common welfare, contribute six
days leave of absence to employees
who are members of the company"

Making a Zero of Aaron Burr.

Chicago Record-Herald Und)
A movement Is on foot to make a hero
of Aaron Burr. What is called the
Aaron Bur- Legion has been formed,
with headquarters in Boston. and the
avowed object of rehabilitating Burrs
reputation. A meeting of this society
has just been held in Newark. n. j.,
to commemorate the one hundred n
forty-Seventh anniversary of the once
famous and Infamous Statesman's birth
although he was born on February s..
During the past year or two Burr has
figured in several historical novels, n
a good many biographical articles have
been written about him nearly all APP
parently for the purpose Of making HIM
out to have been a much-wronged and
sadly misunderstood man.
1t may be that Aaron Burr was as
great as some of his admirers declare
he was. and it is possible that he was
as heroic as others in their mixtures OF
history and fiction endeavor TO picture
him. Even SO. howeve~ : Will Droba-
bly, never be POSSIBLE to convince a
great majority of the American people
that he was not a despicable character.
Aaron Burr's murder Of Hamilton was
a crime that certainlv brought Its own
punishment. The historical novelists
have a job on their hands that is like
~ to be about as big as ever. even
when we shall have a smokeleSs Chi
cagO.

CAMP LIFE CLOSING
Boys Brigade Will Break Camp at
acknowledgements
Has Been a Glorious Success.
Camp George.

Southport. July IS. 1905.
Our 9Th annual encampment is draw
ing to a close, bringing with it a reali-
cation of the great privileges we enjoy
and a sense of our Indebtedness to the
employers of the members Of u
brigade for giving US this vacation.
We hope, and feel assured that the
standard of our work in town will be
raised by this outing, for upon this
rests the success of the encampment.
AS individual members, We are deeply
grateful to our commander, Colonel
Walker Taylor, for We know the Sacri-
fees he has made and is making for
our pleasure and benefit. May we ever
merit his kindnesses, and may this, his
life work, be ever a living monument
to his credit.
AS for the Southport people, we 1--WE
them as much as ever, yet we shudder
to think of what would happen We're
not Wilbur Dosher closely related to
every inhabitant of this lively city. Oh,
the girls, Well they ave always been
on our side.
And to leave our own lovely visitors
from Wilmington unmentloned would
be an injustice to the last degree, for
we can truthfully say that to them in
no small measure is due the great sue
cess of our 9Th and best encampment.
Even Jim Orrell is satisfied. The kick
erS have made their last kick; the fish
ing parties are daily adding to their
stock of fish stories, and We a see
the eyes of the Greensboro friends OF
Hon. Mr.. Scales. who are disciples CT
Isaac Waltser. bulging as he rehearSes
his experiences to them.
Tomorrow will be a quiet day,
Church, Sunday school n dreams OF
bv-gone days will take up most of Dur
time.
Early Monday morning we will break
camp and Tuesday will find Us all al
our posts read to take up the white

In conclusion the scribe will devote
a few lines to himself. Considering his
state at birth (tired) and the relapse

of his ability, but asks no reward
