NEW UNIFORM TO
BE READY SOON
Guardsmen Will Wear Regular Olive
Drab at 1912 Encampment.

when the National Guard of
pennsylvania goes into camp next
summer 10000 men will be clothed
in the new pattern of United States
army drab cloth service uniform and
companies of infantry will carry
their distinctive flags and first SER
geants will be armed with revolvers,"
remarked Adjutant General Thomas
j. Stewart in the closing of the an
nual session of the National Guard
Association convention at Pittsburgh
Saturday.
Federal pay for enlisted men of the
organized militia was fully debated
and officers of the Guard placed
themselves upon record as being un-
animously in favor of the project.
The bill will be presented in the
present session of Congress and del
egates pledged their unanimous sup
port in influencing their congress-
men and business men to secure it's
passage. A paper on sanitation,
read by Major Edwards, of the Four
teenth Regiment, National Guard of
Pennsylvania, and the demand for a
uniform system of camp chests by
Captain Hollenbach, of the First
Regiment, took up the morning ses-
sion.
Pennsylvania systems were ex-
| haustively depicted by Adjutant Gen
eral Stewart in telling of the good
work done at the recent Austin flood
| disaster. The National Guard by
sending food and supplies, the State
Department of Health detail, which
was in charge of a Guard officer, and
the state police, commanded by Ma
| jor John c. Groome, also a guards
man, did their work so we'll that the
National Red Cross Society represen-
tative exclaimed that the work has
been $50 complete that he had moth
ing to do" General Stewart was so
proud of the Guard that he took op-
portunity to show its perfect system.
He said that already the support of
thirty Pennsylvania congressman has
been enlisted in favor of the Federal
pay bill.
These officers were elected for the
ensuing year.

ter, Tenth Infantry; first vice-presi-

Undertaken Keeps a Body Year.

Russell B. Hultzlander, of Month
cello. formerly of Deposit, who died
at the Albany Hospital recently after
an operation for appendicitis, was
one of the best undertakers in the
state. He was located at Hudson.
He did something that few under
takers have done, and that was to
keep body for year and then have
public funeral. A child of a
wealthy family was taken i'll and
died. The mother became insane
over the death of her child and was
committed for treatment. The father
was anxious that the funeral be
postponed until the mother recover
ed her reason and insisted that the
body be preserved in good state for
that occasion. Mr.. Hultlander en-
balmed the body and re-embalmed
it as occasion warranted. At the end
of year the mother recovered and
the funeral was held Mr. Hultz-
lander said it was necessary to give
some time each week to the body
and his bill, If our memory serves
us right, was something like $4,000
for the work.

CUPID'S UP-TO-DATE.
TBy s. s. Robinson

I've been a readin', Hannah Jane,-
I've read it over twice,
About this quick-time marriage pact,
This record-breaking splice!
They fell in love on board a ship,
They wished to wed, this pair,
But the Captain thought it wasn't
best
To have the knot tied there.
So they were just contented like,
Till safe upon the pier,
Then off they rushed to get hitched
1t really seems quite queer.
To jump right into wedlock's bonds
1t sorter makes me smile.
But that's the way they do now days
It's twentieth century style!
There's been great changes, Hannah
Jane,
Since / went courtin' you,
Dan Cupid does some livery stunts
He never used to do!
Sometimes he takes a moter-er-
A motor-car l mean,
He gets astride the sterin' wheel
And runs the whole machine.
That's run by 'lectric power
His little dart will pierce a heart
At forty miles an hour!
Sometimes by telegraphic lines,
Sometimes by wireless, too,
He confuses in his clever work
And makes one heart of two.
And l just heard the other day
He's taken to the air
He stole ride on biplane deck
And captured two hearts there!
Yes, there has been some changes
great,
Since l went courtin' you,
The world moves at a swifter pace
Then what it used to do;
We're livin' in a stirring age
And Cupid's up-to-date,
He's caught the spirit of the times,
And takes livery gait!

The Fourth of July, 1911. will go
down in the history OF local packing
circles as the real Jonah day" for
Britain & Co. In addition to the wind
damage Of $4,000, sustained later in
the afternoon. fire at about noon did
another $4,000 worth Of damage.
The fire was discovered in the saus-
ase room at 1915, and its origin is un-
known TO any definite certainty. The
sauSage room is situated in the center
o. the building. where ii would have
been an easy matter for the fire to
have consumed the entire big plant by
eating its way in either direction At

and found everything all right. and his

Suns Rays Possibly Responsible.
There was not particle of fire in
the room. and no one had been en-
c,oEed there since Monday afternoon al
o'clock. Vice President Bell is unable
to account for the fire in any way ex-
ceHtins possibly the suns rays were re-

some excellent work was done not only
by the fire department but by the en-
Ioloyes OF the company. Three streams

the fire department could reach the
scene after is long. hard run. The
packing house pumps were carrying
1?5 pounds Of pressure. and the city's
eight-irch main gave the department
fine pressure. Ten streams Of water
We're used on the fire. which was con-
fined 10 the room where 1t originated.
Machinery Principal Loss.
The principal loss was due to the
destruction OF the machinery in the
sausage room. The roof over this room
was destroyed. and the fire was SO hot
that practically all Of the machinery
will be a total loss. it Is believed. The
loss Is fully covered by insurance, the
