LACK Of GOOD
OFFICERS BAD
FOR MILITIA

The annual report OF Adjt-Gen. Sackett
uf the Brigade X l. NJ. was pr ssente1 TO
the senate yesterday and ordered printed.
The report. I'm reviewing the work of the
militia, says:
"One or two companies were found be-
low standard az the spring inspections.
The cause for the trouble arises from our
inability TO find proper officers u. the
towns where they are located. IL DO
cided Improvement is not manifest imme-
diately. shall recommend their dis
bandment.
THE increase i'm the appropriation for
the militia at the last session from $4,000
70 $4,000 avoids special appropriations and
enables prompt payment OF bills. IL this
appropriation is continued. the business
of the office can be much more satisfac-
torily conducted than formerly
Our allotment OF the Appropriation by
congress is now $4,000 annually, Instead
of 5000. under the amendment TO the re.
vised statutes passed last June or this,
5000 can been used for the promotion OF
rifle practice.
Since We now have a new battery of g.
inch. II. J.. rifles OF the most modern
type, Il recommend that next summer per

Fort Greble or some other coast defence.
that additional instruction may be re-
ceived and an opportunity for target prac-
tice afforded.
"A larger number OF men have duall-
fled In small arms practice than ever
before; but IL is extremely doubtful IL IL
IS advisable 10 enter into competition
with larger states with so small a milf
tia TO draw from. The beneflt derived is
by no means commensurate with the ex-
pense"
The report OF Brig Gen. Herbert s.
Tanner declares the encampment OF 1906
the equal OF any ever held and I'm many
respects superior. IL recommends that
ehower baths be installed, and a rifle
range constructed for practice In the
short and mid ranges. The camp parade
IS sorely in need Of fertilizing, and the
value OF the hay crop gained thereby will
speedily repay the cost OF the work. Il Is
urged.
Gen. Tanner also recommends that no
Team be again entered at Sea Girt unless
more satisfactory arrangements can be
made for feeding the men. Notwith-
Standing the greatly increased price over
former years. the food and service were
very unsatisfactory.
Commander William e. Bliss in his re-
port on the tour OF duty OF the Rhode
Island Naval battalion on the L. s. s
Columbia recommends that the necessary
steps be taken at once 90 secure the loan

IhDECENCY ON
THE STAGE ANGERS
THE PAR|S|ANs

Paris, Jan. 4.--There was remark
able scene last night at the notorious
Moulin Rouge, when the Marquise de
Morny and a niece OF Napoleon III
made her debut in an act called "A
Dream OF Egypt" written by herself
an collaboration with Nine Gauthier-
Villars, the author OF "Claudine' ana
other novels
The marquise. who is the $iVorced
wife OF the Marquis de Belbeuf has al
ready achieved an unenviable reputa-
tion. and her heralded appearance on
the stage brought ou: storm OF criti-
ctsm To this the marQuise replied
IN a letter published yesterday after
noon. denying that her performance
was intended 10 be suggestive ana IN
sisting that she meant 10 give an ar
tistic reproduction of tho manners OF
ancient Egypt In defending her ap-
pearance on the stage the marquise
says
"This does not constitute n disgrace
10 the French aristocracy, and a dis
tinguished scion OF this aristocracy, the
Prince De Broglie. has been earning
his living for some time past by con
ducting an orchestra in New York
In spite OF this statement a number
OF club men and Bonapartists got to-
gether and went 10 the Moulin Rouge
last night. where they conducted a
demonstration the like OF which sell
dom has been seen in this city. For 10
full minutes the curtain could not be
raised on the new act owing to the
pandemonium from galleries and boxes.
When the curtain finally went up,
a sclosing the marquise working out
cryptogram OF the charm OF life
after the fashion OF Galatea and a
beautiful Egyptian mummy in 1.-The per-
son of Nine willy. the din was. re-
doubled. This was followed by a rain
OF missiles OF every description. the
audience even throwing hassocks and
boxes at the women on the stage In
spite OF this vociferous demonstration
the two women persisted In completing
their act which was as disgustingly in
decent as anything ever seen on the
Partisan stage.
When the curtain was rung down the |
crowd rushed toward the box occupied |
by Mrs. Gauthier-Villars and Mile Po- |
Iaire. who is starring In a stage adapta-
ton OF "Claudine." and literally drove |
Them from the theatre.
