4 Warrior Too,

The wooden boards that had marked
the graves in n certain rural cemetery
rotted Off and were raked up in the
spring cleaning. Consequently on
Memorial day when the delegation
from the G. a. II. arrived with flags
and appropriate floral decorations for
their departed comrades the decorat-
ing committee found itself somewhat
in doubt as to which grave belonged
to Captain Blodgctt and which to
Hannah Ericsson. The mistaken dele
gates heaped their offerings upon Han
nah's last resting place and departed.
That afternoon Ericsson. the widower,
drlfted. with the rest of his world, to
the cemetery. When he saw the flag
and the flowers above Hannah the
astonished Swede fell to chuckllng
joyously.
"Vell," he exclaimed delightedly,

very hot during the height of the lunar
day, which, as will be remembered,
lasts two weeks. and very cold during
the lunar night, which is equally long
These extremes of temperature reach
their height at the lunar noon and
midnight and are greater than any
natural temperatures on the earth.

ON PRESIDENTS SIDE
MIR. SINS WANTS THE HOUSE TO
90 ON RECORD.

Representative Sims Of Tennessee wants
the House to get sQuarely on record in
favor Of the President for his action in dis
missing three companies of the 25th In
fantry from the military service Of the
United States. He said today in the lower
branch of Congress that by unanimous
vote Of the Tennessee legislature the Presi-
DENTS course was Endorsed. and he had
therefore introduced q Joint resolution COM
mending the President in his position. He
said the resolution had been referred to
the military affairs committee, which, he
believed, would act upon the resolution. II

mittee be discharged, and he would bring
the whole matter before the House for dis

asserted, IAN ambiguous resolution has

take the action he did. In the debates his

as a basis for q Recommendation to Con-

A few weeks ago Paymaster Lukesh was
arrested at Vallejo, Cal, on the charge of
disorderly conduct while under the infiu-
ence of liquor. and undoubtedly would have
been court martiaied but for the fact that
he rendered his resignation. Lukesh Is from

master in September. 1902, and has been
recently on duty as assistant general store

NAVY OFFICERS RIGHTS
The Senate Considers q Resolution Of
INQUIRY,

Senator Hale today called up his reselu-
ton directing the Secretary Of the Navy to
Investigate whether opportunities OF naval
officers and friends In favor Of the naval
personnel bill are in violation Of executive
orders and regulations prohibiting such
activity.
The resolution was opposed by Senator
Dick. who took the position that the gen.
eral movement in favor Of the personnel
bill was not in conflict with the Presidents
order. and Mr.. Hale replied that what 1t
is proposed to do Is to have the Secretary
OF the Navy inquire whether there have
been attractions Of the regulations.
The position was taken by Mr.. Daniel
that the resolution proposes to deny to
naval officers the right Of free speech. This

commander Of men in the army or navy to
make regulations which would sever COM
munication of these men with the repre-
