GRANTS MILITIA
USE OF A SECTION
Mobilization of National Guard in July
at New State Grounds Near
Chandler.

Guthrie, Okla, June 7-Announce-
ment is made from the adjutant gener-
ais Office that the annual mobilization
of the Oklahoma national guard will
occur on July 20, at the new state en-
campment grounds near Chandler, and
the encampment continue there for ten
days.
The last legislature passed a bill
leasing to the national guard for
ninety-nine years a section of school
lands for encampment and rifle range
purposes. An appropriation of $4,000
was made toward purchasing the i'm
provements on the section, which are
valued at nearly $4,000 and the citi-
zens of Chandler put up the remain
der of the money necessary to secure
full possession of the land.
The drill and camp ground will oc-
cupy three quarter sections, while one
quarter section is set aside for rife
range. A large force of men, under
supervision OF captain FRANK b, King
and the members of the engineering
corps from Lawton are now clearing
off the range, erecting targets, build
ing bridges and otherwise putting the
ground in shape for the encampment.
Target practice will continue for
thirty days, and will enable Oklaho-
ma to be better represented than ever
before at the national rifle contest.
There will be no joint encampment
of the militia from several states, as
has been the case for several years
past, but army officers will be assign
ed to each state encampment to in
spect and instruct the troops.

Vicksburg, Miss, June 7.-on June
II, the day following the close of the
United Confederate Veterans Reunion
at Memphis, many of the old soldiers
and other notables will assemble here
to attend the unveiling of statue
of the late General Stephen Dill Lee,
who was commander-in-chief of the
Confederate organization at the time
of his death.
1t was in the seige of Vieksburg that
General Lee won his spurs as a dash
ing and intrepid commander, and the
last years OF his life were devoted to
the perfection of the great national
military park here. General Lee died
at Vicksburg. May 2S, 1908, and it is
peculiarly fitting that the south's
memorial statue to him should be
erected on the spot which he loved so
well. On the same day another monu-
ment to his memory, though smaller
in size, will be unveiled at the state
agricultural and mechanical college at
Starkville, Miss, as he was the first
president of that institution. This
memorial, though of lesser Importance
than the Vicksburg statue, neverthe-
less emphasizes the universal affec-
tion of the people OF Mississippi for
him Another monument will be plac-
ed at the grave in Columbus where the
old commander sleeps in everlasting
rest.
North, south, east and west will
send celebrities to do honor to the
memory of the chivalrous soldier of
Dixie. Major General Frederick Dent
Grant. of the department of the lakes
has been delegated by the secretary of
war to receive the statue on the part
of the United States, which will be
officially presented to him by General
Clement A. Evans, of Georgia, com
mander in chief of the United Confed-
crate Veterans, Colonel George r.
Peck, of Chicago, will be orator of the
day, and Henry Watterson, of Ken
lucky, the veteran editor of the Louis
vile Courier-Journal, will be master
of ceremonies and preside at the au-
spicious occasion. Many of the last
surviving generals of the Confederacy
and other eminent men will be pres
ent. Secretary of War Jacob M. Dick
inson, who was a fellow-townsman of
General Lee at Columbus, has ex-
pressed his keenest regrets that Of
fetal duties would prevent him from
being present.
The well known sculptor. Henry
Hudson Kitson, of Quincy, Mass. who
designed the statue will be present
to direct the placing of his handwork.
