THE EXCURSION SEASON.
These bright Summer days bring the veterans face
to ;ace with the annual festival and excursion sea
son. Among the affairs already announced are the
Starin excursion, the excursion ot Devin Post, of
Brooklyn: the third annual stag party of E. D.
Morgan Boat, and the afternoon and evening picnic
ot Koltes Post. Of course the most important of
these to veterans in general is the excursion yearly
tendered to the veterans by their staunch friend
Mr. John H. Starin. It will take place 021 Friday
next. The Committee in charge consists of a large
number of prominent New York and Brooklyn
comrades, headed by Past Commander J. W. Jacobus
as Chairman, and Comrade William J. Trimble as
Secretary, it is probable that the same number ot
barges will be used as last year, and that the points
o', embarkation will be the same, but due notice
will be given in the daily papers concerning these
particulars. The headquarters boat will leave Pier
Mo. 18 North River, at ihe foot of Cortlandt street,
at 9.30 A. M. These affairs have always been highly
enjoyable in the past and the approaching excur
sion is looked forward to with much eagerness by
comrades and their families. Mr. Starin has so
often been praised for his patriotic and liberal
spirit that further encomiums would be mere
repetition. Bis best thanks have a lasting founda
tion in the hearts of the old soldiers.

HtS TERRIBLE WOUND.
Tlfh proverbial ii gratitude of Republics Was
tteVer better exemplified than in the case of Captain
William Fowler, well-known in Grand Army and
Mascni’c circles. Very few of even the intimate
Yrfarda of Captain Fowler are aware of the fact that
■fee was terribly wounded at the beginning of the
Mexican war. Yet such is the case, and he has
never received one penny of compensation from the
government.
When one of the first regiments of volunteers for
the campaign in Mexico was being raised, Captain
Fowi- r, then a lad, went down to the City Hall
Park to enroll his name. He was drawn up in line
along with other would-be heroes, when suddenly
he feit a strong grasp upon bis coat collar. Look
ing around, he discovered that his captor was no
less a person than his father. ’* "What are you doing
here inquired tko latter. " Going.to enlist," sen
tentiously remarked the son. “Going to enlist,
•U ejaculated the old gentleman. “Well, I*ll en
list you in the Home Guard. Git!" Just tiien the
paternal leg Was drawn back and the paternal foot
was launched forward with the force'Of a hundred
ton gun. A ■substantial boot came into close con
tact with tire southerly extremity of the embryo
’Captain's spinal column with a dull thud." He
Uros > gracefuly into the air and landed in aheap
on the Sidewalk which lines the westerly side of
Broadway, The remains were conveyed home on a ;
wtTetcher. Mexico was conquered in a short space
of time, during most of which, the captain took his
wpoon victuals in a starrdr&g position.
Despite Lid having born 1 © such a conspicuous part
tn tDe war, the gallantry and sufferings of the young
'hero received no recognition from the government.
But his soul is still overflowing with patriotism aud
4ov •of country. Isgratitude “ cannot stale his in
finite variety. * As Gaptain Fowler himself tells
this story as though be believed it, there is no rea»
’son lor outside criticism. But with rare self-abuo
egation he announces that be is perfectly willing to
-display his honorable scars to all disbelievers.
IN HOT WATER.
Department ‘Commander Joseph I. Sayles, seems
to be getting himself into particularly bet water.
It is said on good authority that charges and speci
fications apainst'the Department Commander and
his Acjutant*General, O. P. Clarke, have been for
warded to National Headquarters. It is -said that
the charges are based upon the alleged fraudulent
voting in the recent encampment.
But this is not all. The June number of the
Railway Magazine, says that it has been informed
that Commander Sayles made it a condition to pas
senger agents of various roads who sought his en
dorsement, that be be given eight free passes to San
Francisco and return, and that no-charge should be
made to him or hie party for meals or sleeping
berths. It is, also, asserted that be asked for regu
lar excursion tickets in order that the boys could
not “tumble to his racket." If Commander-in-
Chief-Burdett has any spirit of honesty and fair
dealing about him he will order an investigation of
■this'alleged despicable transaction at once.
The scandalous developments in this department
during the past two or three months will doubtless
result in defeating the aspirations of all New York
candidates for the position of Commander-in-Chief.
And it is well that it should be so, for this Depart
ment needs a thorough overhauling and renovation
! beforo new honors are conferred upon it. And it is
equally certain that nine comrades out of ten agree
that the past career of Corporal James Tanner does
•not flt him for the task.
The other candidate, General Reynolds, of Roches
ter, is a high-toned and honorable-comrade, but he
4s, unfortunately, supported by the present Depart
ment Commander and his official family. This is
enough to damn the best candidate that the world
ever saw. What is neededmow is a Western business
man who has no politcal ax to grind, whose honesty
is unimpeached, and who will conduct the adminis
tration of Grand Army affairs with the same fidelity
that be would exercise in his own business.
McQUADE’S TRIP TO UTICA.
General J.ames McQuade Post left this city for
Utica on the morning of May 29th, arriving in that
city shortly after 5 o’clock next morning. The vet
erans were greeted by the booming ol cannon as
the train rolled into the depot, where they.found
John F. McQuade Post of Utica awaiting them.
They were escorted to the Butterfield House where
they partook of breaklast, after which carriages
were procured and the boys were shown the city.
At 11 o’clock the two posts boarded a special train
and went to Trenton Falls, where, after being wel
comed in an eloquent address by beuator Ccgges
hall, which was responded to by Commander Fran
cisco, a magnificent lunch whs provided, to which
f ull justice was done. After spending some time in
viewing the falls the posts returned to Utica. In
the evening both posts attended divine service at
the Church of the Redeemer and listened to an able
sermon by the pastor, Rev. T. B. Ro b. On return
ing from church Commander Francisco received a
dispatch containing the sad news of the death of
his mother in Hobokeo, N. J. He immediately
started for home after turning over the command
ol the post to Past Commander Isador Isaacs.
The next morning the post formed in front of the
Butterfield House, and with the handsome floral
tributes intended for the grave of General McQuade,
and General Barnum and Senator Coggeshall in the
centre, was photographed in a body. The comrades
were then escorted to their place iu the line by the
Utica Citizens’ Corps and John F. McQuade Post.
They were loudly applauded along the line of march
and also the fine file and drum corps. After the pa
rade the posts marched to St. Agnes Cemetery, where
the grave ol General McQuade was decorated. Com
mander Isaacs being in charge of the services. Ad
dresses were delivered by Senator Coggeshall and
General Barnum. Fully 10,1)00 people were in at
tendance. Returning to the city the post was es
corted to the armory of the Utica Ciiizens’ Corps
for lunch. In the evening the “ vets." were given a
reception and banquet, at which speeches were
made by Commanders Dagwell and Isaacs. Major
Bright, General Barnum, Senator Coggeshall, A. Q.
M. General Koehler and others. At half past ten
o’clock in the evening the boys marched to the
depot and were soon homeward bound. The party
consisted of fifty-six members of the post, a drum
and file corps of thirty-five boys and a Citizens’
Auxiliary Corps of twelve.
The comrades speak in ti e highest terms of the
treatment they received in Utica. They were not
allowed to spend a penny, not even for a shave or
to have their boots blacked. Their money was in
vari. b y refused on the ground that it was either
** counterfeit " or “ Confederate scrip." They feel
so grateful to their Utica comrades for their kind-
that on Wednesday evening last a commit
tee consisting of Commander Francisco, Past Com
mander Isaacs, Dr. C-arke, Adjutant Fancher, Com
rades Delany, White, and others, were appointed
to procure a suitable testimonial to be presented to
X F. McQuade Post and the Utica Citizens Corps.
What the testimonial will be cannot now be di
vulged, but will be made known at the proper
time. The names of the comrades forming the
committee are a sufficient guarantee that the gift
will be worthy both of those who present it and of
the recipients.
ENDORSING GEN. FITZ JOHN PORTER.
At a regular meeting of Oliver Tilden Post, held
at their headquarters, Morrisania, on the Bth inst.,
©n motion of Comrade Murphy and seconded by
Past Commander Rate, it was
“ Resolved, That the thanks of this post be ten
dered to Gen. Win. J. Sewell, now U. 8. Senator,
representing New Jersey in the Senate of the Uni
ted States, at Washington, D.C., for bis noble, man
ly and able efforts to obtain for Major-Gen. Fitz
John Porter, former Commander of the Fifth Army
Corps, that justice so long denied, and of which he
was deprived by sentence of court-martial in 1868.
Side by side with our lamented Generals Grant,
McClellan, Kilpatrick, and with Generals Sherman,
Schofield, Terry, Gerry, Sigel, Sewell, Howard, Av
erill, Jackson, Rosecrans and Sickles, we earnestly
desire to record the fact that, as veterans of the
late war, many of us who served under Gen. Porter
and know his brave, patriotic and chivalrous ac
tions as an able commander, can bear testimony to
his anxiety to meet and engage the enemy on July
29th and 30th. 1862. The fact that one-third of the
Filth Army Corps was either killed, wounded or
captured fully attests the fact.
•• At the last session of Congress, in 1883, both the
U. S. Senate and House of Representatives passed
the act relieving General Porter from his unjust
sentence, but it was vetoed by President Arthur.
The time' for such action is passed and as the
House has again passed the bill by a large majority,
we, as Union soldiers and sailors, knowing no North,
no South, no East, no West, regardless of party ties
or political affi.iations, most respectfully request
the U. S. Senate to confirm the action of the House
and render justice so many years delayed to a brave,
able and persecuted soldier, and efface the disgrace
from the records of the Army archives."
GOING TO GETTYSBURG.
The Seventy-third Regiment, N. Y. Yds. (Second
Fire Zouaves) Veteran Association, has completed
its arrangements for the trip to Gettysburg on July
2d, to attend the reunion ot the Third Army Corps,
and will be accompanied by its drum and fife corps.
The Second Fire Zouaves—known throughout the
Army of the Potomac as the Fourth Regiment Ex
celsior Brigade—was organized May 3, 1861, and de
parted for the seat of war on the 23d of August fol
lowing. Upon arriving in Washington it was as
signed to the Excelsior Brigade, Hooker’s Division,
Third Army Corps. The regiment was always with
the Army of the Potomac, taking an active part in
all its engagements (excepting Antietam) from the
siege of Yorktown to the surrender of Lee. In es
caping the battle of Antietam the regiment more
than balanced the account by being engaged in (he
battles of. Bristow Station, Second Bull Run and
Chantilly; under Gen. Pope. The feature of the
trip to Gettysburg will be the marking of the P°®i"
tiou held by the regiment near the Peach Orchard,
where in-the near future it is intended toerecta
monument to the fifty-one members of the regi
ment who are buried on the battlefield. A delega
tion from the Volunteer Firemens’ Association will
accompany the Zouaves. Veterans and friends who
desire to visit the famous battle field of Gettysburg
can avail themselves of the reduced rates and re
ceive any information concerning the trip, by at
tending the regular meetings of the Veteran Asso
ciation, held every Monday evening at headquar
ters, No. 32 First street. A special meeting will be
held this afternoon at two o’clock.
McClellan post at trenton.
The visit of General George B. McClellan Dost io
th© grave of General McClellan, in Trenton, N. J., ■
was an occasion that will be remembered for a long
time by all who participated. The post had two
special cars, and turned out nearly a hundred
strong. Upon its arrival in Trenton it was received
by Bayard Post, of that city, together with a full
detachment of State militia, and proceeded to the
cemetery, where the remains of the dead hero are
deposited. After the ritual and ceremonies were
performed and flowers placed upon the grave—
among which was a magnificant piece made by

resenting the Stars and Stripes, and bearing the
words “In honor of Little Mac" in immortelles, a

B. Reimensnyder. of the East Fifteenth street
Lutheran Church of this city. Fully 5,000 people
repaired to the green in front of the vault, and
listened in a silent and reverential manner to the
oration of Rev. Reimensnyder, which was a full
Afid comprehensive review and summary of the
life and services of the hero.
After the oration the post was escorted to Taylor’s
Hall, where it was formally received in a very neat
and appropriate manner and welcomed to the
hospitalities of Trenton by Commander Clugston,
of Bayard Post. Commander W. J. Holmes made a
fitting response. After these exercises, all sat down
to a bountiful repast prepared by the ladies of
Trenton,which was soon demolished by the hungry
veterans, and none did better service »n this respect
than Comrade Ettinger, the Spring street butcher,
who caused many of the ladies to think that he
would produce a famine. The collation over
speeches were made by Holmes, Past
Commander Forbes, Sr. Vice-Comniandef Cole,
Comrade McKinn, and last but not least Senior-Vice
Commander Reeder, who was particularly flattering
to the handsome ladies and large vegetable produc
tions of New Jersey. Resolutions were passed
thanking Bayard Post and the citizens of Trenton
for their kind hospitality. Prominent among tno
features of McClellan Post’s display were the color
sergeant’s daughter, Miss RobiitA*>a, attired as the
Goddess qf Liberty; Miss Belle CtWAliver, represent
ing the Daughter of the and Master
Robinson dressed as a Continental soldier. The
whole affair passed off la the most approved man
ner, not a single event occurring to mar the oo .
casion, and all Returned home in the finest order ■
and full of best wishes toward Trenton, its ntrble
men and handsome women.

There were fe’w cases of interest ‘tip for trial.
CONSCIENTIOUS.
Regan, of the Sixth Precinct, should have got
back from past at 12:20; he did not appear in the
station-house till 12:55.
He said he was anxious to see if all his store doors
were secure before going to bis relieving point.
Sergeant >Oolgrove said the relief went to the re
lieving point and then all -over Regan’s post, and
never saw him.
HIS WIFE TO BLAME.
Perkins, of the Twebty-ninth Precinct, was late at
the 8 A. M. roll-call.
“I overslept myself," said the officer.
“Whose fault was that ?" asked the Commis
sioner.
••The wife," replied Perkins.
“How?"
“ My wife generally wakes me; she slept in, too."
“ Eight in the morning, and both still asleep ?"
“It was unusual," said the officer. “Won’t hap
pen again.’’
A LAME LEG.
Graham, of the Twenty-seventh Precinct, had a
lame leg and failed to report sick. He said he sent
a boy to the station-house to report that he was
laid up.
“Where is th© boy ?’’ asked the Commissioner.
“In Washington."
“Where did you get him
“ He belonged to the house where I board."
“What’s his name ?’’
“Lawrence something."
“ Did the boy ever reach the station-house ?*’
“ Don't know.”
PARTLY TRUE.
McGrath, of the Twenty-second Precinct, said the
charge was partly true, that Captain Killlea could
not find him for an hour and twenty minutes. The
post was one side of Forty-second street, from Sixth
to Tenth avenues. Several witnesses saw the of
ficer, but the captain said he went three times over
the post, then got Officer O’Neil to cover it at four
o'clock. At five o’clock O’Neil met McGrath.
CHILDISH.
Bernstein played baby on the two charges pre
ferred. He was across the street on the first
charge. He came over on his own post when call
ed, with a bundle. What the bundle under bis arm
was was not stated, but it was understood to be a
French roll loaf that would look in the distance
like a club, but that ho could nibble and make look
“ beautifully less by degrees.’’
The second charge was more serious. On Deco
ration Day, instead of returning to the station
house, when time was up, to be discharged and
sent home, he discharged himself.
“ Why was this?" asked the Commissioner.
“I saw the men from other pricincts going
home, and I ‘ went,’ " said the officer.
“ Wasn’t it proper for you to go back to the sta
tion-house and report for duty, or be discharged ?”
“I saw the others go home.”
“ How long on the force ?”
“ Twelve years."
“Didn’t you know it was your duty to go back to
the station house to report to be discharged ?”
“ No, not when my day off."
The roundsman said he had charge of twenty men
to return them to the station-house. The officer
dropped out of the ranks on the way to the station
house, and made for home.
Hensler of the Thirteenth Precinct, in the same
box, said he understood when they were told to fall
in, it was to again fall out and go home. He was
sorry for the mistake, it would not occur again.
TRAMPS—A SECOND THOUGHT.
Smith and Bergin, of the Thirty fifth Precinct,
were timed fifteen minutes in conversation. They
said they were talking about the trouble they had
to drive the tramps out of the cars. Bergin called
Smith to help him bounce them.
Roundsman Terry said the two were a hundred
feet away from the car. They said nothing then
about tramps stealing free rides. They stood
quietly by a pile of railroad ties. They were the
only “ tramps " he saw.
Smith said he couldn’t see how the roundsman
could see a hundred feet in the dark.
The Commissioner said they were color blind.
Smith then admitted they might have chinned
five minutes.
HOW HE NABS ’EM.
Roundsman Montgomery, of the Twenty-third
Precinct, is one of the most misleading on the
force. He dissolves himself from view for a night or
two, may be home abed for all that is known, and
then after he wakes up himself, there is an awaken
ing of the men. He “ double banks ” them, and
of course he is sure to catch somebody after his
lay off.
He went for Ryan, charging him with being
eighteen minutes off post.
Ryan said he had instructions to look out for the
Third avenue railroad. He saw two men dash
through Ninety-third street at break-neck speed.
Thinking there was something up he dashed after
them, and ran two blocks. When he got there he
found it was a horse down and returned to his
post.
The roundsman said the officer on the post that
Ryan ran on said he saw no trouble, and the rounds
man didn’t see any.
Of course ho couldn’t if two blocks off. And yet
he said if there had been trouble about the horse
two blocks off, round the corner, he would have
seen it.
CALLED OFF.
Stuter was off post on Third avenue. He said the
charge was true. He was called off by a rap. He
was gone about five minutes.
Roundsman Montgomery said the officer made no
explanation to him, further than he heard a rap.
The officer on post told Montgomery and Mont
gomery said he did not hear it.
A boy, clerk in a grocery store, said he was put
ting up a shutter and let a stick fall, and that
sounded like a rap and brought the officer, who
asked what was the trouble.
“This officer beard it, the boy said he made it.
It may be a put-up job, but the evidence is against
you, roundsman," said the Commissioner.
ON A BARREL.
Kearns, of the Thirty-first Precinct, was found
sitting on a barrel. Farley said the officer’s face was
to him. The officer said his back was to him and his
foot up on the barrel fixing his shoe.
The Commissioner remarked that there was a
great difference between the hams of a man and his
face.
A PIN.
Branigan, of the Fourteenth Precinct, denied
being sitting in a watchman’s shanty. He said at
12 o'clock a button burst off his pants. He put a
pin in. The pin got out and worked down into the
shoe, and the pricking of the pin made him limp.
He went in the shanty to get rid of the pin; but he
didn t sit.
Roundsman Campbell said it was a square sit—he
seemed to be sitting on a pin when he jumped up.
Gbocees’ Excursion to Europe.—
Over two hundred grocers sailed for Europe by the
North German Lloyd steamer “ Elbe" yesterday af
ternoon. Most of the excursionists were New York
and Brooklyn grocers. There were, however, a
number from Western cities. Among the party
were C. F. Bussing, President of the New York
Grocers’ Union, and C. A. Mettler, President of the
Brooklyn Grocers' Association. The tickets are
good for one year.
A grand reception will be given on the steamer at
arrival in Bremen. July 4 a German-American na
tional picnic will be held at the Tivoli in Bremen.
July 6 parties of fifty will leave Bremen on a tour
through Germany, France, England, Austria, Italy,
Belgium. Switzerland, and Holland.
The North-German Lloyd pier in Hoboken was
handsomely decorated yesterday. At noon a colla
tion was served, Mr. Henry Bischoff was master of
the ceremonies,
Squbam and Asks fob Mercy.—
Harry Harris through his counsel pleaded guilty to
larceny.. His counsel said they interposed a plea of
gufltys it was the first time the boy had been arrest
ed. He had come of very respectable parentage,
and the complainant desired the court to be as
lenient as possible. Beside, he was a most important
witness against the receivers of stolen goods, and
had been cited to appear beiore the Grand Jury.
“Was he in your employ?" asked Justice Kil
breth.
“Yes, sir,” replied Mr. Fenerstein.
“Is this the only case against him ?"
“No, sir."
The court remanded him to be held in another
court.

The Mutual Reserve Fund Life Association,
E. 13. HARPER, President,
Continues to Furnish Life Insurance at Less than ONE-HALF ths
usual rates charged under the old level premium system.
The Admission Fee and one year’s Annual dues are but S3O for $5,000 Life Insuran e: no for $lO 000 Life Insur
ance, and sllO for $20,000 Life Insurance. *
The Mortuary Premiums are based upon the Actual Mortality of the Association, an I a e payable every Sixty
uays, i one-quarter of which is set afrart as a Special Reserve Fund. These Mortuary Premiums have never exceeded
one-third the usual rates charged by stock companies.
The Annual Dm s are but $2 en each SI,OOO Insurance nf er the First Year.
THE MUTUAL RESERVE FUND LIFE ASSOCIATION HAS ALREADY PAID MORE THAN
TWO MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN DEATH CLAIMS,
Within the past sixty days it has disbursed to the widows and orphans of its deceased members more than Two
Hundred Thousand Dollars. It has $1,300,000 Assets: $750,000 Surplus.
Its Tontine Reserve Fund Exceeds Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars, which is returned to its persistent menu
bers after 15 years' membership, thereby largely providing for payments thereafter re juired from its old members.
Its New Business since January 1,1886, exceeds Twenty-five Million of Dollars, and is now doing One Million
New Business per week.
One Bi-Monthly Mortuary Call produces more than $275,000. Making this the Largest, the most Prosperous*
most Successful, most Economical Lite Association in the World.
It has already saved for its members, by reduction of Premiums, as compared with the rates charged under th©
old system, more than EIGHT MILLION OF DOLLARS.
The Mutual Reserve did a larger business in New York last year than the Equitable, nearly as much as the Mu*
tual and New York Life combined, and, except these, more than ail the other companies put together.
