last Tuesday evening, at which time the
matter Of pay of the militia in camp was
discussed. However, there was such
wide divergence Of opinion as to the ex-
act meaning Of the latest circular from
the division of militia affairs in the War
Department that the matter was put of
until the next meeting, at which time Ii
is thought positive information can be
given.
Encouraging reports have been received
from the company commanders of the LIST
Battalion. and from indications the bat
talon will have four companies with an
average of forty-two men each present in
camp.
Company musicians will use the COM
pany signal flags in camp this year. They
are receiving instruction under Sergt.
Rabbit.
Sergt. Jones, who has passed his ex-
aminations, will in all probability receive
his commission this week and will be as
signed to Company D, under the command
Of Capt. Pennoyei.
Officers Of the LIST Battalion are pleased
to see so many Of the former members OF
the battalion re-enlisting. There is no
doubt that IL the battalion had better
quarters 1t would be recruited to maxi
mum strength.
Sergt. James of Company B will soon
receive his commission as second lieu
tenant and will be assigned to Com
pany c. under the command of Capt
Chase. Sergt. James passed q fine ex-
animation and will be a welcome addi-
ton to the corps Of officers of the bat
talon.

Churchyard Ghouls.
From London Tit-Bits.


In the days of the resurrectionists vari-
Gus means were devised to prevent the
nefarious practice Of body-snatching. Re-
frequently placed over tombs in lonely
churchyards, while burying places were
OFTEN made unapproachable by the cree
tion or massive ratings The services Of
the local blacksmith were also reQufsi-
toned to fasten strong bars OF iron over
the conins to prevent the possibility of
place. q ;
In many churchyards watchhouses
We're erected. at the door Of which after
an interment careful watch and ward was
Kept. and not few tales were told of
MYSTERIOUS beings surprised in the midst
or their ghostly depredations.
In Few places mort safes or dead
houses were. constructed in which the
DEAD bodies were allowed to remain for
several weeks, or until such length of
time as they were no longer serviceable
Tor uissecting purposes. An interesting
quaint kirkyard at the ruined Church of
Cowie. near Stonehaven. This was a ia
vorite haunt OF the resurrectionists from
Aberdeen.
The corpses were conveyed in dogcarts
to the Granite City. With a view to es-
cape detection the lifeless figures were
clad once more In the garb Of the living
posture
The story is tod, says a writer in the
Glasgow News, how on one occasion a
party of resurrectionists stopped at a
wayside inn for refreshments. when all
partook Of the same at the door Of the
Inn. The inkeeper. noticing the silent fig
ure of one OF their number left alone in
the conveyance, remarked, '.Wlll yer
freend no TAX a dram?' Without saying
q word the party instantly mounted and
drove on: leaving mine host, who was not
without his suspicious, to draw his own
conclusions as to the calling OF his Wis
itors.

When the District boys forming the
field battery reach Tobyhanna they VIII
Undoubtedly surprise the regulars by the
way they sight and fire their guns. They
do not intend to go to Tobyhanna and
waste shells by having them go wide OF
the mark, so they have been doing some
sighting in the open during the last
four or five drill nights.
On these nights the field pieces have
been taken out of the armory by hand
and stationed on the street In the vicin-
ity Of the armory. AS the street cars
would go by. the men would get sight
on them and fire; even pedestrians. .au-
tomobiles and wagons furnished targets.
The result is that by the time they
reach TObyhanna they will be able TO

This Coupon and &c
Middle Names Taboo.
From the Chicago Tribune.


People have not always been allowed
the pleasure of having as many names as
they wish: indeed. 100 years ago not even
middle name was allowed in England
1t was Illegal. The old English law was
definite and admitted OF no infraction Of
its ruling. The only exception made to
this iron-clad regulation was In the case
of persons of royal rank. IL they really
wished 1t they could boast a middle name
but woe to the person OF ordinary rank
who was sufficiently unwise or obstinate
to insist on having more than two APP
pellations.
For the first offense he would very
likely be tied to a whipping post and
severely dashed. For a second offense
he would endurse some more lasting pun
ishment perhaps the removal OF his
thumbs or his ears. And IL he still per-
sisted in his stubborness he would be
hanged.
There Is case on record Of q poor
man-in all probability half demented--
who insisted on signing four names
every time he wrote his signature TO
any paper. OF course. he passed through
all the legal stages of punishment until
he was finally hanged.
