AIIMY AND NAVY
Charles ftman. Dclegitn Kuhlo's
appointee to tho United States Mill
tary Academy at West Point, nas
passed hl cntranco examinations to
tho academy. President Griffith of
Oahli College this morning received
a cablegram, announcing that I.vman
had passed and had boon ordered toi
rciort for duly At West Point.
' I.vman 1$ n graduate of Punahoii nnd
his solecllon by tho Delegnto as tln
wall's representative at Iho Military
Academy- met with general npprovnl.
He took his entrance cxsmlnHtlons nt
Port- Shatter- nnd tho nnnounconmnt
that he has passed with living colors Is
very gratifying to the president nnd
faculty ot his nlma mater.
Secretary Newberry has sent n let
ter of commendation to Philip Alfred
l.cc, an ordinary seaman nn the U. S.
S. Hancock, for his prompt and heroic
action in Junipfng overboard from the
steam launch ot tho Hancock on tho
afternoon of Jan, 3, Into the Cast
Illvcr, and resetting from drowning
John t Jester, ordinary seaman, who
had fallen ov'orboard.
Whcio Captain William O. Pay Is to
ho stationed Is a question which local
marlno officers aie trlng to answer.
Cnptnln Alfred T. Marlx, U. B. M. C,
has been ordered to Camp Very as
post quartermaster, though Captain
Tay has received no intimation that
he Is td be relieved. As Captain Pax's
company has been amalgamated with
tho other four companies now form
ing the marlno garrison hero, his be
ing relieved as post quartermaster will
probably mean that tho authorities
havo need for his services somewhdre
else.
Captain Kqy was, for a long time,
the ranking marlno officer ihMho"ls
lands and. ns such, the commandant
of Camp VOry, though subordlnato to
Captain CorVtfn P. noes of thefavy,
tho commandant of tho Naval 8.taton.
