THE END.
Have REVOLUTIONARY Flintlocks.

One of the most interesting features
of the noted military organization. the
Putnam Phalanx, of Hartford, Conn.
which visited Washington a few days
ago. was related by Col. NJ. A. Winter.
commander of the Minute Men of this
city. 1t was that the members are all
armed with original fintlock muskets
that were used by Continental soldiers
in the wars with Great Britain. These
venerable guns had been stored in one
of the arsenals since the days Of WASH
lngton and Putnam and other Continen-
tai commanders. when Senator Hawley
of Connecticut, himself member of the
PhalanX, discovered their whereabouts
and at once set about to procure them
for the Hartford soldiers. This he final
~ accomplished and earned the thanks
of the Phalanxers. The senator was at
that time chairman of the military COM
mittee of the Senate Another interest
ing feature of the Phalanx Is that
among its active members are several
lineal descendants of the gallant old
Gen. Israel Putnam, in whose honor the
organization is named. The present
governor of Connecticut and many other
notable men of the Wooden Nutmeg
state are on the rolls of the Phalanx
Its uniform is an exact reproduction of
the buff and blue suits worn by the stur-
dy Continentals when they fought for the
freedom of the states from the yoke of
the mother country.-Washing Star.

Moral Effect of Athletics

Aside from its physical effect. the
moral effect Of athletics, in the case of
the soldier, at least, is of no small value.
My experience has been that men are
less likely TO drink in the football or
baseball season, even though they NAV
be addicted to the use Of intoxfcants.
And this though no special effort NAV
have been made along these lines bv
those in charge Of the sports. The class
If men who 90 in for athletics and excel
in such contests are the most desirable
soldiers and the best all around men.
Still another advantage of athletics Is
that good athletic teams and the reputa-
ton for post Of having champion teams
draw good recruits and soidieTs TO enlisi
there.-Army and Navy Life.

SOLDIERS STORIES.
ENTERTAINING "REMINISCENCES
OF THE WAR.
Graphic Account OF Stirring Scenes
Witnessed on the Battlefield and
I'm Camp-Veterans of the Rebel
lion RecIte Experiences.

The records of the war department
show that there were 1855 colored
men regularly enlisted as soldiers in
the Union army during the rebellion,
who by their good conduct established
a commendable record and did efficient
service in camp, fortress and field. The
first enlistment of negroes was by Gen
Hunter in the Department of the South
in June, 1862. 1t was made without
the authority of the war department,
and was due TO an emergency, Gen.
Hunter needed men, He could not get
white recruits, and was surrounded by
a multitude of able-bodied negroes who
were idle but anxious to serve as sol
diers
1t was some time before the facts
We're known in the North. and Hunters
unauthorized recognition of the great
issue of the war as proper military ma
terial created considerable excitement
Representative Wyckliff of Kentucky
introduced a resolution in the House of
Representatives calling upon the sec
rotary of war for information. The
resolution was forwarded to Gen. Hun
ter, who made comprehensive and
practical report, which was forwarded
to congress and was recognized by the
country as a full Justification OF his
act. Mr. Wyckliff created scene In
the house by denouncing Gen. Hunter
and declaring that the enlistment of
negroes was an insult to every white
soldier in the army. Nevertheless con-
gress authorized the president to enlist
persons of African descent" but pro
yided that they should be used as la
borers in the camps and forts, and were
not to be allowed to bear arms.

REHEARSAL WAS
VERY SUCCESSFUL

Miss Leona Clifton will be the stellar
attraction at the Opera House Wednes-
day night, and her glory viii probably
outshine the moving picture exhibition.
Miss Clifton has recently finished an
engagement which included all of the
Coast cities, and her tour was a
triumphant one. At the Opera House
her singing will come between the NOV
ing pictures. There was rehearsal
last night, al which all of the pictures
were thrown on the screen. There was
not single jar in any of them, as
jars of moving pictures go, and the at
fair was pronounced a great success.
Some of the films were humorous to a
degree, while those from real life kept
the few invited guests on the expect
ancy list until the end. The one depict
ing the loss of party in the Alps was
especially rood and realistic. Seats for
the performance are on sale at Wall,

What He Saw at kilauea

Mr.. c. L. La Rue of Sacramento,
California, who has travelled extern
sively around the world, returned from
Hawaii by the s. S. Mauna Loa Tues
day of this week; in an interview he
said:
Yes, I have just been to the vol
cano; was it worth while? Well!
/ should think so; il was worth
going around the world to see: I
would not have missed it for any
considera ton; il is a spectacular
performance which cannot be de-
scribed: IL is so awfully fascina-
ting that one can hardly leave it;
If my business would have per-
p mitted, l would have remained
there a week. The wonder to me
is that your Honolulu people do
not make more of 1t; they can't
realize the extent of the present
activity: I understand that hun
dreds went up TO see the flow of
1907. and that it was not a bit
more attractive than Kilauea is
at the present time.
Everybody returns from the vol
cano with the same enthusiasm and
vet Honolulu has not awakened to the
fact that a great eruption is taking
place within twenty-four hours travel
Of her gates.

In view of this endorsement it be.
comes pertinent and opportune to In.
quire what has the Republican party
done in the last four years of govern
mental control-in many respects the
most remarkable and brilliant In the
history of the party and the country
to forfeit public confidence or create
distrust in its capacity for future ad-
ministration? Although some unto
ward and unforeseen conditions have
beset the republic during the last four
years, yet these have been met and
overcome with alacrity and courage
and the country has marched steadily
onward in its matchless course of in
dustrial triumphs. The wise and
benefcent legislation of the Repub-
lican party during the long years of
its a~scendancy and administration of
national affairs laid the foundation for
the public veal so securely that no
disquieting condition, not even a tem-
porary panic, which necessarily touch
es the handspring Of all industrial life,
could arrest the country's resistless
advance.
