DOCKSTADER'S MINSTRELS. Lew Dockstader and his famous minstrel bank, with everything brand, new, will be seen at the New Haven theater on Thursday night, July 26. By dint of much thought and the ex- penditureof an enormous outlay of money, air. Dockstader has brought his performance to even a higher grade of perfection than in the past. Of course the interest centers in the minstrel king, who has carried out his policy of presenting novelties to, the public a.t all times. Mr. Dockstader will foe seen this season as the "Editor of the Bungville Corker," In which character he will portray the trials and tribula tions of the life of a newspaper man.

Neil O'Brien, whose quaint humor seems to grow more amusing every season, : has provided ". himself with eo-me of the best material and songs he has ever had, and will be further seen In a sketch which Is called "Rap id Transit No. 2." In this Mr. O'Brien fairly outdoes himself in the matter of fun making. .. . .. .. : Eddie Leonard is another addition to the Dockstader forces this season, and he will be seen In the picturesque songs and dances of the south. One of the big features of the show Is an "Animated Cornfield," in which the cornstalks come to life and go through a unique dance. Vocally the singing contingent is bet ter than ever before. Manuel Romain, Reese V, Prosser, Mat Keefe, Gra F. Weller, Jairnes B. Bradley, and all the old favorites are In the cast.

ADJUTA21T-GEXERA.L COLE COM 3IEXTS OX COXDITIOXS. Innovation of tn Year An Imports it Change in the l.uw as to the Nomi nation and Appointment of Officers, Etc Adjutant-General George M. Cole, In his annual report to Govtrnor Roberts for the year ending September 30, 1903, urges the necessity of providing at once suitable quarters for the compa nies of the Connecticut National Guard quartered In this city. He says that the present condition of the arse nal and armory Is, to say the least, re grettable, and of no credit to the state. He adds that It is a waste of money to repair the buildings, and he hopes that the Incoming legislature will find it possible to provide this much needed building. - AN IMPORTANT CHANGE. . The adjutant-general speaks at length of the innovation introduced in the organized militia of the state dur ing the past year; first a very impor tant change was made in the laws re lating to the nomination and appoint ment of officers. What under the old law, he says, was a great injustice and hardship to many has been removed. In commenting upon this feature the report says: . "Formerly an appointment was made to fill vacancies, subject to examina tion, the officer being appointed acted In the office and was required to fur nish himself with a complete uniform and equipment , and in many cases failed to pass the' examining board, and was discharged at great loss financially and otherwise to himself. This is changed. Under the present law an officer of the grade of second lieutenant, or above, who is nomina ted to till a vacancy, remains in the grade held by him at that time, until he has passed the examining board, or by his falling to do so, shows bis lack of appreciation of, and Interest in -the service, which requires of him that he eb a student and progressive. In the case of company officers it is now re quired that all nominations to the of fice of second lieutenant must be made from the eligible list. This is a long step In the right direction, both for the commissioned personnel and the en listed man. On application, properly indorsed and approved, any enlisted man, or civilian, can go before the ex amining board and demonstrate his fitness or otherwise, for the position, and If successfully passing the board, he receives a certificate, which places him on the eligible list for a period of one year, and it, from present indica tions, Is prized toy the receiver, and, again, it Is an incentive to study, which is more necessary, I think, In the mlltary than any other branch of tho public service. The art of war Is a progressive science, and an officer to be of any value must keep up the study of his profession. When a nom ination is made for second nontenant by a company from the eligible Hat the nominee having passed his examina tion is at ones commissioned, and en ters upon his duties, and no further nomination Is required for promotion in the company, as promotion is by seniority up to captain, after passing the examinations required by law. This goes away In so far as Is possible, or advisable, at the present time, with that unfortunate condition which has always existed in the state militia, the eleotion of officers. A wise provision, however, is made which -will obviate the perpetuation of a "mistake. The company has the power to protest, by a two-thirds majority, if they so choose, against the promotion of an officer iby seniority. ANOTHElR INNOVATION. "Another Innovation introduced this year was the sending of the brigade into camp, 'by regiment, and the prac tice marches of tho artillery and cav alry. This received the unanimous ap proval of all Interested officers, and they are much gratified over the op portunities offered them, and the re sults attained In carrying out exer cises which could not properly be done at a brigade encampment. It was a working camp, and while I do not be lieve that results have shown the dls dom of, for the present at least, alter nating a brigade and regimental camp." The report also speaks of the rifle ranges that have been established and of the need of such Institutions in or der that the membors of the state may improve themselves in that Important branch of warfare. TOTAL STRENGTH. The total strength of the National Guard at the date of the report was 3,041 officers and enlisted en. The state rifle match at Sea Girt, N. J., is deal with, as is also the various pa cades, including the funeral of General Joseph R. Hawley, which the militia participated in. EXPENSES. The expenses of the National Guard for the year amounted to $161,418.84, di vided as follows: Printing, stationary and office expenses connected with the adjutant-general's office, $4,100.09; quartermaster-general's bureau, $77, 911.95; bureau of pay, $60,592.24; bu reau of subsistence, $5541.09; comp troller of salaries, sundries, etc., $18, 273.47. The total military enrollment was 120,268, of whom 112,662 Were liable for duty in case of war. The total number exempt for legal causes was 33,287, leaving the number liable for commu tation tax, 86,981. POOR FOOD. Relative to the "poor food" trouble, Lioutenant-Colonei Wilbur S. Watson, assistant sungeon, C. N. G., in his re port to Surgeon-General Oliver C. Smith, says that the inferior beef Is sued to the First regiment was due to error and not intent. The meat was not bad, he says, but not up to the standard." Major John B. McCook saya, on the same subject, that the supplies condemned were either Insuf ficient in the elements of nutrition or unfit for Issuance. Colonel Schulse, in his report, which Is approached, speaks In favor of the regimental camp and compliments the officers upon their work and the eaod i discipline mftlutsuaed, OBITUARY XOTES.

I'sual Line of March Will he Observed What the Providence, K. I., Press Says Regarding the Exhibition In dians and Wild West Show Attached Fighting the Flames a Great Spec tacle. Walter L, Main's circus and Colonel Cummins' Greater Wild West and In dian Congress, which was tht great success of the three world's fairs, a tour of the British Isles and France, and the unparalleled success of Madison Square Garden, will be here to-day, giving per formancesafternoon at 2 o'clock and evening at 8 o'clock at the West street lot. There will be the usual parade. Start ing from the grounds at 10 o'clock, the route will be from West to Washington, Congress to Church, Chapel to State, and the usual line of march back to the show grounds. '. The Walter L. Mnin circus and Colo nel Cummins' Wild West show attract ed large audiences at the performances which were given on the Cranston grounds, opposite the Narragansett Driving park, says a Providence con temporary. All the features of the old- time circus, from the master of ceremo nies with his stuntorlan voice to the In imitable clowns, were happily combined with the daring foats seen in the Wild West exhibition. The spectators came away well pleastd with the entertain ment afforded them. It is difficult to state which of the many specialties was the particular feature, for a number of them pleased the audience. Doubtless the delegation of Sioux Indians, among whom were some notable chiefs, deserves to stand high in the list, for the war dances and war whoops did considerable to make the circus the succtss it was. The cow boys and "cow girls" gave an exhibi tion of horsemanship which is seldom surpussed In any show. The trained elephants should also bo mentioned among the headliners, for their performance was a most credita ble one. A, spectacular feature closed the performance. In the boyhood days of fathers living in the present generation no circus was complete without a clown. To-day no circus is complete without at least half a dozen clowns, and those who witness ed the curious antics of the good-sized aggregation of clowns that accompany the Maln-Cummlns exhibition are cer tain that the show is complete in thla particular. Evidently two of them do not belong to the Clowns' union, for they worked overtime, beginning to crack their merry jests at the expense of those In the audience before the 'big" show began. One of these was dressed as a "cop" and he Created no end of fun by "holding up" persons on the way to their seats and pretending to beat .them with his "billy," which was merely a soft piece of rubber tub ing filled with air. The other clowns were none the less amusing, and their burlesque performances were among the good things in the show. Seldom Is proficiency in trained ani mals manifested to so great a degree as by the trained elephants connected with the exhibition. They showed very little clumsiness, and skilfully performed their tricks. One of these, which astonished all In tho audience, was performed when the trainer let a big elephant He dawn over him. So carefully was this done that not even the man's coat was wrmkled. Good horsemanship was In evidence throughout the entertainment. The bare back riding by the redskins was no less marvelous then the feats performed by the Cossacks and cowboys. A novel feature was the quadrille performed by eight equestrians. Other things worthy of notice were the tumbling of the Mazette family, tho lady Zouaves and the reproduction of the battle of Little Big Horn, the cen tra! figure In which was a man made np to resemble General Custer, who, with all his troops was massacred in that notable encounter. The perform ance closed with a "fire and flame" show, portraying the burning of a build ing and rescue of several persons. This was made more realistic by the pres ence of a fire engine and hose company, whose efforts to rescue those in the building were thought to be inferior to the local department by some of the cltlzons present. Of course there was a "side show" and also a menagerie attached to the circus, and these contained the usual remarkable features. The peanut ven ders and "pink" lemonade concoctors did a thriving business in tents near the big show. WOODMONTERS" GRIEVANCES. Milford, July 19. A committee ap pointed at a recent meeting held at Merwin's restaurant, Woodmont, for the purpose of conferring with the town selectmen relative to improve ments on Merwin's avenue, Woodmont, were presented last evening at the reg ular weekly uneeting of the selectmen, and they were many, according to the speeches made by several residents. The conference resulted in granting very request. BAILEY IS SILENT. Hold for the Goodale Murder-Hearing Monday.
