T*o Full-Dress Uniforms for tho
Jubilee Parade— A Model of
the Marion.
Much of the time of the National j
Guardsmen In this city was taken up !
last week in making preparations for the
grand jubilee day parade, consequently
there was hut little of general interest
going on in guard circles.
Colonel H. B. Bush, whilom assistant
adjutant-general on the division st;iflf, has
turned over the offia el Thomas
duff, his successor, and every day at
noon the new adjutant is to be found at
quarters in the Baldwin Hotel. Dur
ing his absence the office is in charge of
Major Schmitt, a medical student at the
University of California, who was pro
moted from a non-commissioned ■
in the Lowell High School Cadets to
that of aid on the division staff, with the
title of major. While it is true that
Major Schmitt is an active, bright, well
educated young man, who, no doubt, is
very ambitions, there are many of those
who have business to transact at head
quarters who are of the opinion— and
they have not been res* rved in their
expressions thereof — that positions
of that character should be given to
men who have had practical ■
in the guard and who are soldiers — men
who by hard work have acquired a
knowledge that cannot be pained by
theoretical instruction.
As the time for the gubernatorial elec
tion is approaching and candidate
the offifp of Governor, who is comma
in-chief of the National G loom
ing up. they will in the near future find
that there is a force quietly at work in
the ranks of the guard. It Is pr<
to test those who will be candidate
the office of Governor on National Guard
matters, and one matter that they will
be particularly questioned about will be
their position "in the matter of taking the
office of adjutant genera] of the State out
of politics. The nif-n say they are get
ting tired of having a new adjutant gen
eral once every four years, and th:: :
an officer should be i | Luring gi.od
behavior and only retln d for cause or for
age. ;
There is considerable complaint about ;
the rule that prohibits State shoots on j
Sunday. The men who belong to the Na- j i
tional Guard are willing to face the tar- '
gets, but as the majority of them are em- j
ployed in business from which they can
not get away without a. great deal of in- •
convenience during the week, the result 1
Is that there is but a very small percent
age of the men who attempt to become
marksmen. Previous to the new order
they could, on their day off. get to the ! ,
targets without inconvenience and make
records.
The companies of the First Infantry I
will shoot between the following dates,
January 22 and 29, not including Sunday,
the 23d. As they have .not yet secured
their range near 'ingleside they will have ;
to go across the bay.
As yet the companies of the Fifth Reg
iment of Infantry have not received any
Instructions in regard to the January
shoot.
Lieutenant T. W. Sparrow of G. First
Infantry, Major J. H. Hendy, engineer of
ficer of the Second Brigade, and Captain
W. D. Elliott of D. Fifth Infantry, have
passed the examining Board.
Colonel Thomas duff, assistant adju
tant general; Lieutenant-Colonel J. A.
Huber, commissary; Lieutenant-Colonel
Barrere, inspector of rifle practice; Lieu
tenant-Colonel Henry F. Emeric, pay- j
master; Lieutenant-Colonel C. T. Stanley,
quartermaster, and Major J. G. Fitzger
ald, chief aide, recent additions to the <ii- i
vision staff, passed the examining board
on Friday last.
The entertainment proposed for the
benefit of the rifle range fund of the First
Regiment of Infantry will not be given
until after the close of Lent.
The Board of Officers of the First Regi
ment of Infantry has selected the several
committees for the year and following are
the chairmen thereof: Finance. Major
Charles Boxton; music, Captain A. J.
Kelleher; library. Captain John A. Miller.
At the first business meeting of Com
. panics C and G. First Infantry, at the
Ellis-street Armory, in the presence of a :
full attendance of both companies, the j
following civil officers were elected for
the current year: C. P. Lebreton, treas
urer; J. S. Macabe, financial secretary;
G. T. Phelps, recording secretary; T. Me
. Gilvery. librarian: J. F. Morton, A. E.
Anderson and J. P. Heilbron, range com
mittee; G. J. Petty, W. F. and C. W.
Swasey, armory committee; and S. 11. '
Palmer, C. Meyer and O. C. Baldwin,
auditing committee. Last Monday these
companies had the annual distribution of
medals and prizes for shooting, after
which there was. as usual, a National's
good time. The medal winners are: -
Championship class, C. Meyer, Company
C; first class, Sergeant F. J. Porey, Com- i
pany G; second class, V. F. Northrup,
Company C; third class, Sergeant J. H.
McKnight, Company C. The prizes that .
were distributed to the next best shots
numbered about seventy-five.
The election for a captain to succeed
Charles A. Jenks as commander of Troop
A will probably be held this week.
The idea that the First Regiment In
fantry should on jubilee day parade ap
pear in full dress uniform has been aban- i
doned, and the men will appear in fa- I
tigue dress, and this came about because !
some of the sections of the Second Bri
gade have not full-dress uniforms. Twelve
companies could have made a very fine
showing, but because two or three com
panies of the brigade did not have full
dress uniforms the citizens will be de
prived of the opportunity of seeing how
the First looks in full <lre?s. This is an
other case of the tail wagging the dog,
or of a minority ruling the majority.
Nevertheless, the three majors of the
First, or, rather, two majors and one
acting such, for Major Charles L. Tilden
has been on the sick list -and has not done
any active duty for many months, will
this week inspect the full-dress uniforms
of the several companies.
THE NAVAL MILITIA.
The work of removing all the movables
from the Camanche to the Marion has
been accomplished and there remains in
the monitor but six tons of coal, which
could not be placed in the bunkers of
the Marion for want of room. It is prob
able that this will have to be sacked and
placed on the deck of the vessel. When
that shall have been done, the militia's
new vessel will be all ready to be taken
to this port. The day has not yet been
fixed and it will be at the pleasure of
Governor Budd, who desires that the
event shall be a grand one in the history
of the militia. She will be steamed down
from the island under the orders of Cap
tain L. H. Turner.
Bruno Nellson, one of three men de
tailed by the Navy Department for duty
on the Camanche. but who will, with
-three more, be assigned to the Marion,
about two weeks ago received a block
Df pine and out of that he carved a fine
model of the Marion and then rigged her"
Dut completely. So complete is the model
that on last Tuesday Lieutenant Gunn
used it for the purpose of Illustrating a
lecture on sailing, and by its use made
Clear many things that the officers of the
militia will have to know when they go
on board of the Marion.

THE FUTURE OP THE NEW
N ORTHWEST.
Tt is a safe prediction that of what
ever prosperity is in store for the
United States, a large relative share
will fall to this New Northwest: for it
Is yet in its infancy of development. In
1890 the total acreage of Minnesota
farms, improved and unimproved, was
18.603,654. leaving at least 2
rtile soil still unoccupied. The
farms of the two Dakotas, including
their unimproved acreage, cml
oniy 19,000,000 of the 90,000.000 acres in
these States, most of which is arable. .
Not a tithe of th<> mineral wealth of the
mountain States has been developed.
Alaska, reached by numerous steam
ship lines from Seattle, Taooma and
and, with its boundless wealth of
auriferous rivers and mountains, is an
outpost of this Northwest belt. Large
areas of fertile but arid land in Mon-
Washington and Northwestern
Dakota, now xiseful only as pastures
for cattle and sheep, may easily be'
converted into fruitful fields by a scien
tific system of irrigation, for which na
ture affords abundant facilities in the
mountain streams and in the artesian
basins which underlie the Dakota
plains. The areas adapted t<> agricul
ture in other sections of the United
States are bo largely occupied that im
migration will be turn* I .] perforce t"

he would not he a too sanguine prophet
who. taking into view all the pn g
sive forces in op. -ration in this field,
should estimate its probable popula
tlon at 10,000.009 in 1910.— From --The
New Northwest." by j. A. Wheelock,
in Harper's Magazine.
THE BELT OF SPRING WHEAT.
The spring wheat nf the Northwest
owes its superior nutritious qualities t->
a law which governs the whole p;
Bion of commercial flora, of which it is
the leading representative — that the
cultivated plants reach their highest
perfection in food qualities near the
northernmost limits of their growth— a
law to which the bright summer sun.
the clear dry atmosphere, arid th>- pure
waters of this Inland region lend ad
ditional force. The cattle which bo
come skeletons on the plains of T
are driven north to grow fat on the
grasses of the Montana and Dakota
ranges, or the pastures of Minnesota,
twice as rich in albuminoids as even
those of Illinois. The fruits of these
northern latitudes are juicier, the pota
toes more farinaceous, the melons more
luscious. The strawberries, the toma
toes, the butter, the whole series of
field, garden and dairy products, tell
the same story. This hard wheat belt,
following the curves of mean summer
temperature, extends far north of the
international boundary, through Mani
toba and the Canadian Northwest, tra
versed by the Canadian Pacific and
tapped by several American lines.
Within the United States it embraces
the broad prairies of Minnesota and the
two Dakotas.— From "The New North
west," by J. A. Wheelock, in Harper's
Magazine.
A MIGHTY WORK.
"The great wall of China which. -we
have heard of from infancy, and which
we read of in our geographies, with ac
companying pictures purporting to
represent its great proportions, never
ceases to interest the people," said Mr.
Prank A. McClellan of Cheyenne. Wyo.,
last night at the Riggs. "it was a great
piece of work on the part of the Mon
golians, and must be ?ee n t<> bo ap
preciated. With all that we have heard
of the wall, it remained for an Ameri
can to measure the structure. This was
rec« ntly done by a gentleman from the
United States named I'nthank. an en
sslon. His measurement
gives the height at eighteen feet. Every
few hundred yards there is a tower
twenty-five feet high. For 1200 miles
the waH goes over plains and moun
tains, every foot of the foundation be
ing of solid granite, and the rest of the
structure solid masonry."— Washington

EDWIN BOOTH AS A HUSBAND.
At this period the second Mrs. Booth,
always a nervous invalid, began to
show pigns of the mental lack of bal
ance which finally sapped her own life
and almost broke his heart. During
her frequent attacks at Sarato — ■ and
later, when the two families met in
New York and in Loi.don, sometimes
she was very trying, but I never knew
him to show a sign or utter a word
of impatience. He bore meekly with
everything she said and did, made ex
cuses for he.-, concealed Ler irritability
and her Irresponsibility as much as
possible; he held her in his arms, as if
she were ;■ baby, for hours and nights
■her without a murmur, and he

equaled. — From "A Group of Players,"

STOLE HIS FARE.
An Irishman landed in Liverpool
when the cholera was bad and went to
an undertaker for a job.
The man of the somber business said
'ild give him two days' work, and
the first job would be to screw a Jew
down.
Before the operation began all the
relatives walked round the coffin and
dropped money in.
When l'i.t got back to the shop h<^
asked his master what they dropped
the money in for, and the master
it was to pay the dead man's fare
over the Jordan.
"Then," said Pat, "I hope he can
swim, for I stole his fare"

San Francisco Turner Schuetien
Compete for Medals. Across
the Bay.
The members of the California
Pchuetzen Club held the first bullseye
shoot of the year yesterday at Schuet
zen Park, near San Rafael, and the en
thusiasm which marked the occasion
was more pronounced than has been
exhibited for many months. The rifle
range was crowded throughout the
day, and at the California Club's tar
getfl the liveliest Interest was shown.
Besides the California Bchuetzen
Club'a bullseye shoot the following
German organizations held their regu
lar monthly contests: San Francisco
Grutli and San Francisco Turners, and
the Verein Eintracht held a practice
Shoot, the Korea of which were hardly
up to the average.
The light on the targets was not
such as to insure pood scores, for the
fog hung over the park during the af
ternoon, when the shooting was most
spirited, and, added to this. It was cold
and correspondingly damp. The air
was still, and the si;:. ike -from the
ri:!<-s of the marksmen hung over the
butts. Despite the unfavorable con
ditions there was plenty of shooting.

OFF DAY FOR MARKSMEN.
Ambitious Sharpshooters Shiv
ering at the Ranges of
Shell Mound.
Yesterday was an "off day" at the
Shell Mound targets.
It was such according to the regular
schedule of the clubs using the ranges
and by reason of the fact that the fore
boding weather kept some of the marks
men away and the cold bestowed upon
the fingers of those who did essay an
onslaught on the bullseyes a numbness
which rendered a steady aim well nigh
Impossible.
It was mostly :i matter of practice
and medal shooting by ihe military, and
some of the companies which had tar
pets fur the day did not appear to claim
them.
The San Francisco Schuetz^n Y<-rc-in
held Its monthly practice shoot, with ■
fair attendance, as did also the Knights
of the Bed Branch Rifle;-.
Companies A and V, of the Fifth Regi
ment, held a practice shoot at 20
ami i>Ct yards. Their shooting rules have
not yet been agreed upon, hut they will
soon commence the regular medal com
petition at the distances named.
Company L, First Regiment, made the
following scores at 100 yards: Sergeant j
Grnndman 4!. Musician Gordon X, Mu

Interesting additional feature was the I
settlement of a controversy between Mv-
Biclan Sengstack and Ehrlvate I>. N. Rog
ers over t; fa last year's med
al. The matter was settled by a "shoot
off" yesterday, resulting In a victory for
Rogers by 25.
Company P, First Regiment, piled up
Its score for the day as follows: Captain

PILING UP DEBT.
The all-important question during the
Reichstag session just begun is the re
organization of the German navy on a
much enlarged basis. . The Emperor,
whose hobby the navy Is. as his grand
father's was the army, just now wishes
to increase the size of the German fleet
within the next seven years until it is
one-third that of the British or one
half that of the French. At present
the British navy has 62 battleships and
l •. cruisers; that of France 36 battle
ships and £3 cruisers. Germany is to
have 19 battleships and 63 cruisers.
Nearly, if not quite, all that the Reich
stag is willing to grant, but what the
majority of the delegates are not will
ing to grant is the "septennate"; that
is. to vote with the Government on the
whole financial plan on which this reor
ganization rests. At this moment the
German navy consists of but 12 battle
ships and 33 cruisers (against the
United States, 11 and 47, respectively,
or Japan's 7 and 39). and that this is
not enough is admitted pretty nearly
all around, considering the transmarine
colonies and the aspirations of Ger
many and her vast export trade. But
the Reichstag strongly dislikes tying
its successor— for the quinquennial leg
islative period of this present Reichstag
ends next spring, and a new <>r.e is then
to be elected for another five years—
to a line of action over which this suc
cessor has no control. • That, in fart, is
the main objection to the naval plan of
the Government, and owing to it prob
ably the whole plan will fail, for the
present at least. However, there Is a
strong probability that the first annual
appropriation called for under the bill
will '"• voted,! and that ought to satis
fy them for the nonce, leaving the rest
to the next Reichstag.
How enormously the empire's debt
has grown- nearly every penny of
It for the army and navy— may be seen
from the following list. The debt was:

DEIFICATK OF THE KAISER.
The Berlin newspapers are discussing
the speeches at Kiel, and ai>- asking
for an Interpretation of some of the re
markable expressions which those
ties contained. They are puzzled
especially by Prince Henry's remark
about carrying "ih<' gospel of your
Majesty's hall n" Into China.
The Tageblatt acknowledges that the
phrase Is leyond its "humble powers
of comprehei lion;" and another Berlin
journal li irdlnaJ Kopp and
Archbishop Stahleski to "solve the rid
dle of this new gospel."
There is no riddle about it. The Ger
man Emperor has been deified, that is
all. His brother has offered public wor
ship t<> the hallowed person, and the
hallowed person has accepted it with
out rebuke. The old Roman Emperors
were deified, and the modern Cesar is
following th'-ir example. !i •■ goes fur
ther than his Roman prototypes, how
; a gallery of gods,
bo to speak, a sort of syndicate of dei
fication, thus dividing the responsibil

is the whole thing. The other
Cesarian deieties have been dethroned,
while the Kaiser reigns alone on the.
dizzy Olympian height.— Pittsburg

WHAT CAUSES STEAM?
A newsboy at one of our railway
stations was very much puzzled as to
what made the steam issued from the
railway oi:nines.
Beeing a learned-looking old gentle
man pacing up and down the platform,
he accosted him thus:
"I say. mister, will you tell me what
steam is."
"St tarn, my boy— steam, did you say?
Oh — er, Bteam is steam, of course."
The lad felt as wise as ever after
receiving this reply, and seeing a mate
of his coming toward him, he addressed
him with
"Bill, do you know what steam is?"
"Why, of course I do. Jack. It's a
bucket of water all of a sweat," he
replied, with ;t knowing air.
HE WANTED TO KNOW.
A North of Scotland clergy man al
ways Impressed upon his parishioners
to call one another 'liars," but
when any one told an untruth he said
they ought t<> whistle.
One Sunday he preached a sermon
on the loaves and the fishes, and be
ing at a loss how to explain it said the
loaves v.- re not like those nowadays,
they were as big as some of the hills
of Scotland.
He had just pronounced these words
when he heard a loud whistle.
"\Vha\s that ca"s me a liar?" asked
he.
'It is I. Wullie Macdonald, the
baker." was the reply.
"Well, Wullits what objection have
ye to what I said?"
"Nane in the least, doctor, only I
wanted to know what sort of ovens
they had to bake them loaves in?" —

THE REGULAR
ARMY NOTES
Changes on Account of the
Recent Transfer of Bat
teries of the Third.
General Miles Wants Commissioned
and Non-dommiasioned Officers
to Be Emblematized.
The transfer of the batteries of heavy
artillery of the Third Regiment from one
post to another In this district, was ac
complished last Wednesday and Thurs
day without any marked incident and the
change has not brought about any noitce
able effect, yet there are a number of the
men who were loth to vacate the pleasant
quarters at the Presidio to take up new
ones on islands distant from the city.
It has been decided that the grand par
ade df troops shall take place on the large
parade grounds on the afternoon of the
28th inst.
Since last Monday a detachment of a
non-commissioned officer and six men
from each battery at Fort Mason. Fort
Baker and Angel Island, in addition to
the artillerymen stationed at the Presidio,
have been engaged on the Fort Point res
ervation in the work of mounting the
heavy guns and -mortar carriages. Of the
latter there are to be eighteen. The work
is to be completed before the end of June.
All the men who are to take part in the
military tournament to be given during
jubilee week, have been busy practicing,
when not in the performance of military
duties, and in this they have been en
couraged by the officers, who are anxious
that the participants shall make a cred
ttable showing at that time.
Commencing to-day. First Lieutenant
Eugen. T. Wilson, Third Artillery, will
report daily, Sundays excepted, to the
commanding officer at the Presidio post
in connection with the mounting of gun
carriages at that post.
By the recent transfer of batteries of the
Third Artillery Second Lieutenant Grad
ncr wont from the Presidio to Angel
Island, where he relieved First LJi
tenoher of th»- staff duties per
formed by him, and in turn Lieutenant
M< noher came t.> the Presidio and re-
I First Lieutenant Randolph of his
(iuti.-s as ordnance offlc< r ■■: the Presidio,
Fort Winfield S.-utt and Fort- Mason.
Bj ■ recent order Issued from the head
quarters of the army the regulatloi
erning loading by squad has been
ami tided.
Lieutenant-Colonel A. !•:. Hates, of the
lepartment, who has been r«
as military attache at the United B
embassy at London. Eng., will not start
for that station until after the first week
of March. Capaln Alexander Hodgers.
Fourth Cavalry, now at the I'restdio, has
ordered to report as military at
tache at the American embassy at Paris
at. out th~ llrst of April.
General Miles will urge the Secretary
of War to adopt ai >mt>lem. to be worn
by every commlsE aed and non-com
missioned officer in the army. His idea
is to have the coat of arms of the United
States placed on the collar or other con
venient portion of the officer's uniform,
over the chevron of every non-com
missioned officer.

men. recently tried at various posts, have

ONE JOT IN AMATEUR POULTRY
RAjSINQ.
The secretary and treasurer turned
carpenter and *i"-:i ! enough in tools to
hire a small poultry house built. 1 do
nut grudge it. I' feel that I owe much
to those fowls. But for them I might
never have known the keen pleasure
that an artisan feels over a pood job.
It Is more than satisfaction — any suc
cessful member of Congress can feel
that. It is me ire than the joy of the
artist in the first moments of creation,
before the black fit comes. It is con
tent with an edge to it — and there is
no black fit after\vards. There is. too,
something very pleasant about all the
processes of the carpenter's trade— the
smell of the fresh crisp shavings, the
lovely gloss that follows a sharp plane
over a good bit of cypress or oak.
even the ring of the hammer and the
drone of the saw eating steadily
through the wood. And pleasantest of
all is the fitting the pieces, measured
apart, together, and beholding each
fall into its appointed place trig and
square and snug. Ah. I were an ingrate
did I not give a pensive gratitude to
the chicken yard to which I owe my
initiation into the first mysteries of an
ancient and noble craft. — From The
Blazing Hencoop, by Octave Thanet, in
Harper's Magazine.
AFTER HIS DEPARTURE.
Amy — Tom wants to marry me, Aris
tophanes: do you think I would better
take the chances?
Boston Parrot— Candidly I do, inas
much as It is perilous to monkey with
the chances, especially when one has
reached the period of the last one. —
