showed that the organization has made
rapid progress during the past year
The increase from nearly one hundred
new commands established during the
year together with the increase in menu
bership of the commands already es-
tablished brings the membership up TO
about 100000. Eight new state organi-
cations have been formed together
with seven provisional state organiza-
lions. 5s+..l. az. d 81
The amount expended for relief work
by the various commands and corps
during the past year has been nearly
100000. . -
About 106 new stands of colors have
been purchased by various commands
for their use and a great many of the
commands have uniformed themselves
in the official uniform Of blue and
grey. 1t is estimated that about go per
cent. is now uniformed. Some trouble
has been experienced in the organiza-
ton Of new commands by reason of
the fact that there has been an effort
to amalgamate the Spanish War veter-
ans with the Spanish-American War
veterans and other like organizations,
A good many have desired to hold out
from joining the Spanish War veterans
until this consolidation is perfected
and all are in one organization. The
amalgamation Isl now about to be COM
pleted and it is, expected that by the
end Of October all details, including the
election of officers for the, new con-
solidated association, together with the
adoption of the rules and regulations
rituals, etc, will have been arranged.
The hinderance to the consolidation
heretofore has been removed and there
is now nothing to prevent it being ac-
complished The committee will very
likely meet during the next thirty days
for the completion of all arrangements
pertaining thereto.
Adjutant General Dyer makes several
recommendations in his report regard
ing the equal division Of work between
his Office and that Of the quartermas-
ter general. He also requests that corps
commanders and captains of commands
be held more strictly accountable fol
the forwarding Of reports. II.

MEMORIAL COLLEGE.

One of the most important matters to
come up before the council meeting
was that of the establishment, prob
ably in Washington, of a memorial in
stitution for the male descendants of
the Spanish war veterans This propo-
sition originated in the brain of Lieu
tenant Fingal G. Black of the Chicago
command and was made known to the
council members yesterday morning.
After discussing the matter It was vot-
ed to refer the question to the conven-
ton which will be held this morning
at 10 o'clock at the Young Mems Re
publican club hall. -.
The erection of a memorial war col
lege met with the general approval of
the netting and it is expected that the
endorsement of the proposition will be
given to-day. :.H$5 aa
This college will be erected by popular
subscription and will be supported by
the government although the institu-
tion will not be a national institution.
Prominent military men from all over
the country have endorsed the plan.

concerns an ignorant-farmer.
This farmer, over a glass of whiskey,
sympathiZed one day with the COM
plants of an old friend of his, a ped

always lard in Scotland; the people
had no money, there; it was a poor
place to get along in.
What you say is true" the farmer
agreed. why don't you enigrate to
Australia, lavish? Australians a grand

1T used to be- the other returned,

overcrowded now as any other land
The coast may be-" the farmer ad-
mitted, but the interior I'm sure is
