With The Legislators

The democrats of the house and of
the senate will meet in joint caucus
at 1880 this evening in the house to
consider further the party's program
for the remaining three weeks of the
session. The little matter of carrying
out platoon pledges viii be taken up.
Chairman Stotsenburg. of the senate
caucus and Chairman Strickland. of
the house caucus, signed the call, and
a full attendance of democrats is as
sured.
The call results from the uneasiness
exhibited by certain members of the
house at the sight of all campaign
promises going by the boards. Five
weeks have been spent in trying to
frame a liquor bill that would repeal
the county local option law. and at
the same time mollify some temperance
democrats and some liberal republic
ans. they say, and the work is not
more than half done. This being so,
what chance will there be, in three
weeks, of adopting the other things
the party has declared for? There is
the primary election promise the
weekly wage law promise, the employ
| ers liability promise the pODIc &C

STORY OF GEN. LINGAN.
Paper Discussed by Members of the
Columbia Historical Society.

Paper Discussed by Members of the
Columbia Historical Society.
An appreciative account was given Of
the life and character of Gen. James NJ
Lingan in a paper that was read last
evening at a meeting Of the Columbia
Historical Society at the Shoreham by
Miss Ella Lorraine Dorsey. In addition
to the local interest which attaches to
the name of Gen. Lingan as one of the
original proprietors of the land upon
which the city is located, and his death
in Baltimore, IN an attack made by the
anti-federalists upon a newspaper Office
in which Gen. Lingan was interested, his
career in the revolutionary army has
caused his memory to be recalled in re-
cent years.
1t was not long since that the Daugh-
tiers of the Revolution caused a stone to
be placed over his grave, and now his
remains rest in rAlington. Gen. Lngan
had the misfortune to be captured by
the British In one of the battles on Long
the prison ships. where the privations
endured left their marks upon him long
after his release. The recent dsinterring
of the remains of those who died In these
ships called fresh attention to this episode
in the war of the revolution.
Miss Dorsey's paper was discussed by
the members present and much interest
was displayed in the graphic recital of
facts.
A statement prepared by the late Dr.
Frederick May in regard to his identih-
cation of the dead body of Booth was
read by William HI. Dennis.
New members elected were Mrs. James
Mosher. George e. Hamilton. DR.. Robert
F. Byrns, Mrs. J. d. Morgan and Mason
