An Indian Fighter.

At the close of the war the colonel
became a captain of cavalry in the
regulars and fought through some of
the hardest fought Indian campaigns
of the west.
During the Piute war of rs, he
brought a command to this county
from klamath, where he had partici-
pated in the Modoc war and with his
men was encamped for some time on
the Umatilla reservation for the pur-
pose of protecting the people of the
county from the hostile redskins.
Since his retirement from active
service Colonel Jackson has been the
inspector general of the o. n. G. and
is generally beloved by the officers
and men of the guard. Consequently
his selection as Decoration day speak
er is pleasing to veterans and guards
men alike.

forth into the battle of life TO test the
value Of the discipline they received
upon the scholastic drill ground dur
ing the past four years
In every way their program last
night was pleasing one and the
eight young ladies and the eight
young men who constitute the class
Of 1908 so forth with the best wishes
of the people Of the city.
A commencement program is an af-
fair that is old and familiar, yet 1t
is something that is of absorbing in
terest. nevertheless. To those who
have relatives or friends in the grad
uating class the event is one OF per-
sonal interest, while it is such to
many others because they themselves
at one time stood in a group upon a
commencement platform 10 receive n

At the conclusion of the sautatory
Miss Hazel Nolen, who could not at
tend the class day program the eve
ming before. gave her class oration,
Appreciation Of American Poets" 1t

forth much applause from those pres
ent.
Following a selection by the glee
club. Homer d. Angel Of Portland.
was introduced for the commencement
address Introducing the speaker,
superintendent Landers said he took
a pride in doing so because the

The schooner R. J. Beswick, which has been in the ice on the west side of Quinnipiac river several days, was lowed yesterday to the wharf of F. Mansfield & Sons where she will dis charge oysters. As stated in this pap CT yesterday, the schooner was moved out into the middle of the stream on Wednesday. but then refused to go further. owing to the heavy field of ice which surrounded her. Yesterday un- der the influence of the thaw and the rain, the vessel was nearly clear of the ice field and was readily lowed to the east side of the river. Yesterdays storm opened up the channel for a long distance, but for several hundred feet above Quinnipiac drawbridge, the ice reaches from shore to shore and prevents boats from going out. Mill river was nearly clear of ice last eve- ming and tows had no difficulty in nav igating the stream The harbor tug boats had previously cut out the ice, much of which went down the harbor yesterday Two big oyster boats. the H. c. Rowe and the H. C. Rowe & Company, were in from Narragansett bay yesterday with oysters.
