The matter was determined at a meeting held, today, by the Senate committee on finance. The question of a postponement of the date came up in connection with the supplemental war revenue bill and was considered •as an amendment to that bill. The committee after considering the mat ter at some length referred the bill to a sub-committee with power to act. This sub-committee consisted of Senators Allison, Aldrick and Jones. They sent for the commissioner of in ternal r» venue and after a conference decided to postpone indefinitely the further consideration of the bill and the request at extension of time. MORE RECRUITS FOR 1st MAINE. Portland, Me., June 21.—A second squad of troops for the Maine regiment at Chiekamauga left on the New York boat, tonight. There were 15 in the party. Up to date 58 of the large num ber anxious to enlist have passed the.4 severe physical test. Another squad will be sent away, tomorrow night. j AT CHICKAMAUGA. Massachusetts Boy Waiting Result of Court Martial. Klondike Rates Charged By the Ex press Companies on Packages.
Changes Caused to Maine Men By Month's Lite on Camp. Chiekamauga Park, June 21.—(Spec ial).— K. A. Poor, the first of the five men from the Massachusetts regiment who were found asleep while on guard duty, lias been tried by a court martial. The resuit of the court martial is not yet made public. The evidence of the witnesses showed that the man bad been asleep while oh duty and for i a defence the characterof the man was brought up, it living shown that he had always been a remarkably good sol dier. In addition the fact was brought out that the man was a recruit and but little' accustomed to the hard military life, being only 17 years of age. It is thought that if the’ man is found guilty he will not be given the extreme sen tence, death, but will be given a period of time at hard labor, digging ditches. The contributions made from North ern cities are being received every day. Among those most appreciated is a check from Mrs. J. C. White, the treas urer of the Volunteer Aid Association in Portland, Me. This check is to be used by Assistant Surgeon O'Neil in furnishing necessaries for the sick. Those who have been receiving boxes of goodies by express from hame on which they have to pay express are wondering whether or not they are blessings or curses. The express rates are simply enormous and savor of the Klondike regions. One man here who received a package was obliged to use all the money he had on hand and more than that was obliged to borrow enough to eat tip his next month’s pay from one of his tent mates. Besides other tilings there were just 10 of mother’s doughnuts in the package and ns the poor fellow pushed his teeth into each he had the feeling similar to that which a man has when he crowds the gold filling out of his teeth, each one having cost him several dollars. It is a great feeling of pride that every Maine boy lias in one of the men from his own State and whenever one is promoted there is a general feeling of rejoicing among the men. One of the latest man tit be promoted is Rob ert Maxon, who lias been given the po sition as orderly on Gen. Wade’s staff.

SHAFTER’S ARMY nur* (Continued from page 1.) she steamed back to the flagship and took up a position for ‘he night. ftefore night fall all the other trans ports and the convoying warships had drifted nearer to the shore and the Spanish soldiers, watching from the bluffs on both sides of the entrance of Santiago harbor, must have been im pressed by the great array of vessels standing off shore. There were nearly CO of them, including the troop ships and the men of war, comprising Rear Admiral Sampson’s fleet and the squadron of Commodore Schley. The 8000 Spanish soldiers and per haps 2000 sailors guarding the city and harbor of Santiago de Cuba doubtless concluded that there was but a small chance of overcoming the force of American warships and some 20,000 American soldiers and sailors which will be hurled against them before tin present week is over. The dispatch boat of The Associated Press left the fleet for the cable sta tion just at night fall, when the war ships had taken their position in a semi-circle in front of the harbor en trance, with the troop ships further out. The sea was comparatively smooth for the first time in several weeks and tin* great fleet was almost motionless. The soldiers, most of whom beheld the shores of Cuba for the first time in their lives, watched the steep moun tain sides through the gathering dark ness with many thoughts of inane pass ing through their minds. The newspaper dispatch boats, whit h had been steaming back and lortb among the transports since tin* ai rival of the latter, were held up at every stage of their passage with the reqin s to take let tei s to the m ar st mailing point, giving accounts of tin- voyage and amiount ing the safe arrival ol tin army off tin- enemy’s coast. According to the regulations estab lished at tin- outbreak of the war, not a light was visible on any of the ships ami the cordon of men-uf-war lying under the Spanish guns mar Mono Castle kept tIn* vigil watch more than usual care during the dark hours of tin* night, to guard against the ap proach of a destroying torpedo boat which might attempt to run nut of ihe harbor and, with one well-directed shot, sink a troop ship in tin* depths of tile sea and send the souls of those aboard her into the realms of eternity. When th" fleet of :’.T transports, with Its freight of fighting nion, swopt n.> the southern coast, Monday, and slow ed op withing sight of the doomed city of Santiago de Cuba, the anxiously awaited soldiers were greeted with ringing cheers which faintly cell.I to the transports front the decks of tlv blockading warships far in shore. They were answt n d by the troops most heartily and all felt that the final blow at Santiago de Cuba was at hand. It was 10 o’clock, Monday morning, when the lookout on board the Brook lyn reported seeing the smoke of sev eral steamers away to the southeast and a moment or so later lie amiouie-. d that a dozen transpirts were in sight Then signals were exi-hangi d from ship to ship, gladdening the In aits of tie weary bloekaders. Then the auxiliary cruiser (Sloucistcr, formerly Mr. J. Pierpont Morgan’s sP am yacht Cor sair, dashed away to nn et and welconv' the troops. About half an hour later a grim for est of masts iiad sprung up appa; cully from tile sea, and a most improssivi scene was prisemed as the armada swept gracefully up from the horizon, towards the .shore where the great struggle is to take place. rl lie transports were ranged in tltt’c shifting lines with (lie battleship Indi ana on the extreme right and the oihei men-of-vvar on the outskirts of tin fleet. In this order the transports an their escorts steamed slowly in tu-wai the hills where Morro's red wall: Reamed in the sunlight. ft was intended to take the .-mir fleet the lines of K.-ar Admir.i Sampsofl s h t .if warships, but an ol der from the admiral stopped the ad value of t’.te ships about 1.1 miles p the south -asT. and, escorted by th.

Owing to the smopthness of the pa: sage the soldiers were not general! affected oy sea sickness and they ai all wilaly anxious to get ashore an begin lighting. The horses and mules on board tt transports have suffered severely many of them having died. The American fleet off Santiago haf been materially strengthened by the addition of the warships which escort ed the transports here, consisting of the Indiana, Detroit, Montgomery, Bancroft, Helena, Krlccson, Foote, Hornet, Annapolis, Custine, and Eagle. Whenev* r the landing may take place, the operations and the informa tion of the last 10 days show conclu sively that some hitter work is ahead for Celt. Shaffer's men before the Span tlag comes down from Morro’s walls. The Spanish infantry, cavalry and guerilla forces, estimated by Admi ral Sampson, today, to number from 00,000 to 40,000 men, are stretched from Ouantanamo to Cabanas, a distance of f>0 miles, ready to concentrate at the point of attack. But starving and harrassed from the inland by tie- insurgents the situation of the Spaniards is desperate and naval officers, familiar with the situation, fully sport terrific lighting about San tiago.

Hawaiian Annexation So Cer tain that interest Lags. After Usual Set Speeches Senate Will Be Ready to Vote. House Considers Claims for Property Des troyed by Confederates. Washington, Juno 21.—Interest in the discussion of Hawaiian annexation, which is proceeding in the Senate m the Senate, already has begun to lag, Karly in the present session the Sen ate debated the question behind closer doors for six weeks. During that time a majority of the speakers were ac corded close attention. It is evident from the proceedings, today, that thi senators will not become enthusiastic over arguments which are not new t> them. Mr. White, Dem., Cal., the leader o the opposition, spoke for 3*t> hours His argument was skilful and was pre sented with oratorical ability, but failed to c ommand the attention fron senators it really deserved. Mr. White had not concluded his argument whet the resolutions were laid aside far the day. He will resume his speech, to morrow. Mitchell. Dem., Wis„ opened the dis cussion. today, with a brief speech ii opposition to -the resolutions. Among the bills presented was on providing s.-veral penalties for the ma lb-ions injury or destruction of sub marine mines, torpedoes, fortification or other coast defences. Almost immediately after the Sen ate convened the resolution for the an nexation -if Hawaii was laid before i: l’cnding it consideration, Knach. X D.. who had been quoted in a Wash ington paper as favorable to the an nexalion -if Hawaii, rose to a ques-tioi of personal privileges, lie said he ha n»t made the statement attributed t him, and, as a matter of fact, was op pos.-d, anil always had been, to th Mitchell.

Two Hundred People Thrown Into the Water, Backwash from Albion When Launched Causes Staging to Collapse. Many Daring Rescues Made —Thirty-three Bodies Recovered at Last Reports. London. Juno 21.—Dining the launch ing of the new Itritish tirst-class bat tleship Albion, if 12,MO tons at Black wall, today, the displacement of water caused an immense mass id' water to rise on all sides, completely submerg ing one of the lower stages of the yard and immersing hundreds of people. I’p to last reports 2;; bodies had been recovered. The victims were mostly working people on a holiday, who had trespassed on the shipbuilding yard where the launching took place. They crowded upon a staging from which they had been warned off, but the force of police on the spot was inadequate to control the immense mob. About 200 persons were thrown into the ’water when the staging was de molished bv the backwash of the huge warship when she plunged into the water. Most of those rescued were by means of the numerous row boats in the vicinity, but many were swept away by the Hood tide which was run ning and sank b-fon- assistance could reach them. About 00 of the spectators were in jured and had to receive surgical treat ment. Many plucky fescues of drown ing persons w re made by onlookers. Th> Albion is a iirst-elass steel bat tleship of 12.1'.",a tons, 390 feet long, 71 feet broad and dtawing 2.1 feet, 1 inches of water. She is to have id, 100 Indi cated horse power, had two propellcs and cost about .‘M.Oou.OOO.

1 i 1 tn iv 1, u ly r, l »n army doctors have been rejecting three out of live men applying for enlistment at reel uiting offices. It would 1m* difficult to exaggerate the number of young Americans of ap parently excellent physical rnakc-upj— hundreds of them, indeed, strapping giants--who have been informed for the first time l y army or navy sur geons that there was something the matt' r with their hearts, or their lungs, or their eyes, sufficient to disqualify til *m for uniformed service. The sur prise with which most of these men re ceive such information from the ex amining surgeons is pathetic. “Organic disease of the heart!’* a man who is rejected for this reason will exclaim. “Why, 1 never knew be for" that' 1 had a heart, i can run five miles and n ver f* el it.” Another man turned down by tie- doctor for defec tive eyesight will say, and believe it \vlv*n he says it. that he can read by moonl’vht. and ih* man who is slightly shy in tie- matter of hearing wili con scientiously ;w**ar that he can h* ar a pin fall half a block away. “Only one man in ten exactly right,” is a maxim f army and navy doctors. Tie* xamiriauig surgeon will promptly tell the turned down man why he r rej- t> bn* applicant is not al wa\ alis'ed. K\**n the old timers in both .‘■••rvicf'S have* got notions about tie* examining n. thuds of the sur *r.s, and many of them pick their -uageen wh* g tic ir terms «»f enlist n •■tp. expire and they an* ready to 1 1.

The all-aroiimi surgeons are i r di'd ’Ulcers who do not devote 1: p*u t i si*-a l construct ion as tlmy b to th** all-n.i un«l physical fitness of h*1 riep hey pass. Up to a few years ago the man who si’i ded in passing an army or navy eh could thereafter r pronounce the np jdi-ant lit for eabstinent. In nearly 1! every aa-e of this sort, the medical dc i purtmeni’s answer to the appeal was an ordt r fm* the man's re-enlistment. j If, however, the nature nf the man's J disqualification was such that the j medb al department couhln’t see its i way clear to .accept him again, and the man’s physical ailment happen* re more lia ble to take eare of tie ir bodies than over they Were when they felt that they had a ••huh on the service untiUtlny were too old eVi n to totter nl* W alible.

In truth, in* is training for his approaching exam-' inatioii. ami when he passes safely, the1 rapidity w ith which he heroines the'same I old eard is funny. The h.;ms lie* old timers devise for “beating the doctor” are many and in geniou.s. Some of these schemes require the colius ion of the recruitingsergeant, vv-»o generally conducts a considerable P irt of the Nomination for the surgeon. The recruiting sergeant always wants to o the old timer g. t through safely, and li' ha:--, besibs, a personal interest in the flatter, for the recruiting sergeant who helps tht- old timer along in his examina tion j. always generously blown .off by the beneficiary.

The hearing: on the discontinuance of the road leading from Coomb’s Mills to a point in Manchester, which occupied the attention of the board of county commissioners, the greater part of the day, Tuesday, was adjourned until y o’clock, this morning1. The hearing grew out of the action on the part of the Augusta c ity gov ernment, who voted to ask the county commissioners to discontinue the road that was ordered to be built from Coomb’s Mills to a point in Manches ter, near the farm buildings of William Ly000. am 1. the petitioners would object to its con I tinuance. in the city of Augusta. Mr. (b-tchell said that in the surve made i•>" the commissioners there’ ar four places where the road would crus I the Kiiml brook. These would nee i four bridges, that would he its, and t'J feet respec lively, and the ntos economical bridge in the end. would b that of steel, with good stone abut meats. He had obtained estimates o the bridges, from two linns and (li prices of the four, would amount in tit I aggregate to 1/ The abutments would cost at lit least calculation as each wool take HOO yards of granite, whicli woul cost when laid about ¥1 nr yan Wooden bridges for the same place. j and on tlie same abutments would cos fll-.'i. lie thought that the roadwa i would cost if built on the same pl.t as the .Manchester section $mhi, but i seemed that the road if built should b of tlie wry best or at least pnssahl and lie diil not think the section men tbilled was Well built. There would also be innumerable lil tie gullies that would need euhorn j Mr. b tchell said Unit some parts the proposed .road were 11.1. .1 in 111 spring, and would cause trouble froi that source. ('oluinbus fid tie, the slre. i cominir sinner for tic Western district of An gusta. testified that the road would b a hard one to build, and hard to kee in rejtair. as well as very Iroublesom j in the winter, lie thought that tli j road would drift badly, fie eotild m sec that the road would lie of any lcnc j lil to the people, whom il was said i would aeeominodate, as tic roads al ready in use were proved as near t Augusta ns to all but these in the im mediate vicinity of the lu-w road, an the other roads were as level as tli proposed one, which lias two bad hill in it. A. T. Fuller of ibis eity, testified t the cost of the abutments to tli bridges, practically the same as Ml Getchell, only Unit he thought it woul cost a little more than that gentle man had stated. Here the hearing was adjourned tin til '1 o’clock in the afternoon. Daniel Sewali was the first wittier called in the afternoon, and he ex plained the topography of the count r in the towns of Manchester, Mour Vernon, Iteadlield, Belgrade and Ar gusta. going into detail concerning lb condition of the roads, as well as tli Hill that would lie encountered. He di not think the new road would be usei Captain C. H. Xash thought the roa would be of littie benefit, and furlht corroborated the idea of the counti mads given by Mr. Sewali. H. H. Whitman who lives near ti brook, said the brook was easy to ri: in the spring, and would often rise I a great height. Alonzo Chesley said the brook ofti rose to a height of six or eight feet, and rose over a i>lace in the location of the road. H. C. Roberts of Manchester, and Charles Morrill of Augusta, spoke of the uselessness of the road. Hon. R. D. Carver, chairman of the highway committee of Augusta, said he had been over the proposed route, and found that 15 culverts would have to.be built, and that the road would have to built four or six feet higher than the present level, on account of the high water in the spring. It would cost $6000 to build the road. Attorney Whitehouse opened the case for the defendants, and asked the city to do its duty as directed by the county commissioners in 1 S!*5. He claimed the road would not cost $3000. By build ing the road 6000 people would be ac commodated, and a great deal of trade would be brought to this city. William H. Ryon was the lirst wit ness, and he stated that though he would admit the road would be a great help to him, it would also be an im mense one to the people mentioned by Mr. Whitehouse. lie thought the road would not be a dillieult one to main tain, and also'that it would be much better than any of the present roads used. William Stone thought the others had over estimated the cost of the road, and said $2000 would Build it. lie would have the bridges of the old fash ioned kind, with abutments of logs. Rcndali Titeomb, Fsi|., made a pi'a I for the road, and illustrated the good done to the oily by roads that have been added in years before, lie sai'l the Bond brook road is the only way that one ran get out of the city, with out climbing a high hill. F. M. Hewins of Fast Winthrop, said tlie people in his section who do quite an amount of business at the grist mill at Coomb's Mills, though the new road would be But little nearer it would a great deal easier. Willis Wing of Manchester, where In is one of the selectmen, would like the road for the same reason, and lie thought the city morally call' d to build the road. Mr. I.eigh said the city had ri'-vcr agreed to build the road. S" it was breaking no agreement. Frank B. Alhee of Manchester, who Built the Manchester section of the road, said lie would build the Augusta part for $3000 whi present, and they pass d the evening in a manner that ail v. ill remember for a long time.

LITTLE TIN GODS. As Such the Recruits at the Recruiting Of fice Regard the Regulars. Those who passed the examinations at the recruiting office, Monday, were an unusually nice lot of men, and it is from men of this kind that Lieut. Hub hard is in hopes to lill the quota re quired fiom this part of the State. Tlie work at the examining office is very severe and at this time the men arc given an unusually severe exami nation. All those who make their ap pearance before the examining surgeon arc haunted with the fear Unit they will not pass. This iris the effect of raising the temperature to an abnor mal’ degree. Those whose heart beats cause too great an increase of tem perature are given a Nprse trot in order that the cause of (he trouble may ire learned. More than one man after be ing measured, thumped and examined to find diliieully with veins, heart, stomach and lungs, is sent around the room half a do/., n times at a dog trot in order that it may lie learned wheth er or not itis heart trouble eonies from a din used organ or from bis being ex eited by the ordeal through which In is passing. Those whose hearts show that the I man would make what might lie called i a "rattle leaded solder” is fit row a out if the trouble is coupled with any other defects, even though so slight they 1 would not prevent a man’s passing. About eight passed the examinations Monday, and as many more Tuesday, j When tln-se men are to be s.-nt off lias not yet been determined. Those who hav- passed til examina tions and now need only to sign the necessary papers to make them tnem hers of the 1st Maine Uegiment, have I unbounded admiration for the reeruit I ing oflti ers and look on the men in the blue uniforms as only a youngster admires his older brother, upcing him in everything he does. Yarn after yarn with the life of the men at Chickamauga as the founda tion. is spun by the boys in blue, and when Lite man once in gins, tin1 crowd around him never ceases to inen ase. Many of these who have passed tie ex aminations have an idea that inside of a week they will he in it place where their lives are in danger from the Spaniards, rattier than from the water served to the boys in blue. There is one thing about the men who come up to lie examined and that is tie- fact that the majority of the men who fail to pars are the big rugged m, n w ho would l>e picked out as tin pictures of health, while the white puny men slip through as easily as can lie. Those who fail to pass and are very anxious t go never tail to ques tion the ability of 111" men who are a- t ing as the examining surgeons. THE CHILDREN S SHOW.

Local Matters MAINE’S SIGNAL CORPS Is the First One to Arrive in Wash ington. Are Enjoying Life and Receiving Many Honors —All Have Horses. The following letter was received from Captain W. Butler, commander of Maine's Signal Corps. Tuesday, and it shows that the corps is up to the stand ard that its Maine friends fully expected of it. Washington Barracks. Washington, D. June IS, ISPS. Special to Daily Kennebec Journal: The Maine detachment Signal Corps l S. Volunteers. Is new comfortably settled in Washington barracks, Washington, D. This organization left Augusta at ten o’clock June ltith. traveling through Brunswick, Westbrook Junction, Koch es ter Worcester, Albany, Jersey City. 1 hil ndelphia and Baltimore, arriving in Washington about live o'clock on the evening of the 17th. It is a fact \vorth> of mention that the boys were given a grand reception from Augus'a to West brook Junction, where m ay of the frienJs of the corps were mgregated: also enough eatables, drr Ides and smokeables were passed in li.rough cat windows to last the corps a week; even the appetite of "Honey" Johnson was satisfied. When Washington was reached the hovs marched across tile city in tront ot the capital to Washington barracks, which is a beautiful place, three sides being'surrounded by a bend of the Po tomac river. The reservation is about one mile long and nearly one half mile wide, with beautifully laid out. grounds and substantial brick and stone bull I "shortly after their arrival the men were given comfortable quarters in a room on the second floor of one of the artillery barracks. Each man was given an iron coi with mattress and pillow: also clos ets for their equipments. Besides this room they have mess, reading and bath rooms. There is also an office connected for the use of oliieers and clerk. ap.. Butler and J.ieutenant Walker were as signed to quarters in officers' row. about 7,0 yards east of,the barracks. There is one thing that the State ot Main*- can b proud of- and that is that she has sen; the first Signal Corps that Juts arrived here from any state in the t'nion. When we arrived here there were thirty eight men that had been recruitel a. large for the signal service from all over the country. Second place has been s. cured by Capt. Guldens of Connecticut, who arrived with twenty-four men twelve hours later. Tin- Maine men are the only ones w a have arrived, so far. uniformed and equipped. All others came in citizen's clothes and without any equipment what Vl'i'e men were so surprised at what c expected of them here that they are .just beginning to recover their mental equi librium. They expected to go into eanv> and rough i'. lint now many ot them ar threatened with spinal trouble, cause 1 by living to keep up a proper dignity, and also with paralysis of the arm. caused by saluting from morning to night. Neither is litis all of their troubles; the men will be mounted here; titty horses having al ready arrived. At tl.f in the morning, when "Stables” is called, til- met g to the staldes. take care of the horses, groom them and examine their feet, wa ter and exercise them. They have not began to ride yet. in handling the horses it is not an unusual sight to see a gre.ii man and a horse's leg living hack and forth through space like tie- piston rod of a high engine. and many were the groans an I growls heard after the first experience. r,. w. BITl.llll. Capt. Signal Corps. C. S. V. OFF FOR CANADA. Sixty-five Local French People to Summer in Canada. For over an hour before the 111 o’clock train arrived in the station, yesterday morning, the railroad sta tion was tilled with French people about to start for Canada on the ex cursion. An hour before the crowd began to arrive there was not a truck team in the city which was not busy hauling the baggage of the excursionists. With a few excursionists the- expense of having a team haul the baggage was considered too great a luxury and a needless expenditure of money. In or der to get around this friends were pressed into service and on more than one hack street might he seen two men carrying a trunk or a box between them. The matter of a container for the baggage was a study. Some used the same primitive container they had when they liist crossed the 'inf* to com* to this country to work the cotton mills. Others had worked the sym pathy of a friend in a dry goods store and had obtained a dry goods box ir which their goods might ice trans ported. Others had the most moderr steamer trunk. The prosperity of tit excursionists was in a measure showr by their baggage. As a result of the excursion the stores where clothes line is handled die a land office business. Five p-r cenl eif tiie men on the platform had wit! them a coil of six thread rigging and with this they were busy binding the trunk covers to the lids. m account of the work of Baggage Inspector Williams, who was in thb city, yesterday, the baggage will gi through without being inspected 1>5 the custom house officials. When the train arrived in this cit> at 10 o'clock it was well tilled witl French people from Waterville. It this city tir, were added to the numliei of excursionists and the addition of th« special ear tilled with baggage made s train of 14 cars which pulled out of thi station. KNOCKED OUT THE CLASS. Togus Veterans Retaliate tor Being Ejcctci trom the “Snow Plow”. "The Snow Plow” as the small liote kept by Miss Stevens, out near th, Torus Home, is known is almost re lured to a semblance of the forts a Santiago as they now appear.

Dur ing the afternoon they offered insults to Miss Stevens and the* clerk of the hotel immediately took a hand and ejected one of the veterans from the house. A second came up and was treated in a manner similar to that of the first. The other veterans then took sides and bombarded the house with stones, smashing out a good part of the glass in the front part of the house. Xo arrests were made, up to last night, neither had the case been re ported to the officers although rumors of the affair had reached the police. AS SOLDIERS SEE IT. Dark and Bright Sides of Chickamauga Life With 1st Maine. Tn the following letters from Chicka mauga the life of the 1st Maine boys is described in a manner tnat is doubly in teresting from the fact that tiny are from men who are living the life and arv thus seeing a side which no one else can see. The first, from Sergt. Gorman to John \Y\ Quinn of this city, gives an idea of the hardships the men are suffering: Lyth June 1'. IS'JK. Friend John I received .your letter.

We were almost limited of our tents, and the mud is ankl* -de*p anywhere and in some places more than that, so you run imagine what kind of time we are having.

That is a city worth seeing, althougn w*- did n«»t see much of it when we came through, hut Lytle is that place where the fun is. It is just 1 ik*• a mining village with its little woolen shanties.

Harris, Just Back from the South Sea Islands, lie Is Planning Another Pacific Trip. Tho many Augusta friends of Char les M. Harris, brother to Dr. W. II. Han's of this city, will lie pleased to learn that he is to have charge of an other of the expeditions sent out by Hon. Walter Rothschilds of London. The expedition will sail, next Sep tember or October, and will be for the purpose of collecting the flora and fauna peculiar to the islands along the Pacific coast from San Francisco to the Cull' of California. Before going on this expedition hi will .probably go to Labrador, for the summer, to collect specimens from that country for Mr. Rothschilds. Mr. Rothschilds has the fourth larg est museum jn the world, the ones in St. Petersburg and Berlin being the largest and the British and National ('HAS. M. ll.UUtlS. museum and tin- Smithsonian Insti tute being the ii’-N! in sixTo oollr. 1 specimens for his museum Mr. Both. childs. who is a son of l’.aron Both childs, si arcs no expense and for tie expedition which -Mr. Harri- will ha.'o (liars:.- of, next fall, a steamer ha lici-n purposely fitted up with photo graphic apparatus anl donk.-y en gines foi hoist ins purpose s as well as many other need.-1 apparatus, peculiar to the work, heins supplied. The expeditions are arranged by Frank It. Webster of Hyde Park. Mass., who is .Mr. Uoth hilds' a sent. Mr. Webster thinks a re.it deal Mr. Harris and does all 111 his power to have him advance. (in the r- ■••nt trip to the South Sea islands from which Mr. Harris r- turned a few weeks so he found four dew speeimens of birds besides gaining much more of information of interest to scientists. Mr. Webster lias upon his premises to at !y tlire.•-.' ore of tortoises, peculiar and giganti wliieli Hie expedition. Just i turned, secured >11 the (tala pays islands in til Pacific ocean. Til adv.-nun ous and eiious journey by land and sea. going and coining. cov er, d more than a year and tile sum of i $12.01)11 was Sp lit. To. the cash cost must he added til" so. i dice of till'. lives, due to the contraction of yellow f.-ver. The tortoises are n.i.v at bom*?, daily, in a yard near tile railroad track. They i inye in weight fr..m 2n() poun.ls down to a0 pounds. The biggest oil" of th" lot is three feet Inns, with a shell girth of live feet, and wh.-n th neck is extendi d it rein lies four feet out from under the hard covering of j the body. The scabs on the forel ',:s resemble those of ail alligator, and the hind legs are like those of a baby pliant. 'Tis a strange sight indeed, to see the whole party moving about within the fenced in closure, rising and sinking and wobbling as a ship rolls in the trough of a sea in a storm. The tii st impression of a person not a naturalist, amateur or professional, is that here is a collection of huge tur tles. I tut these tortoises never saw a large sheet of water until they were lugged down from the interior of the craters of extinct volcanoes to lie load ed on the boat for transportation to this country. I'nlike the marine turtle they neither snap nor bite. As you approach the 2n l In* voyage Cornell died and was buried at sea. At San Frn.neisro Nelson severed his connection with the expedi t ion. Harris, inside the golden gate, found himself alone. Three of his companions a.id fallen victims t., fever and the fourth ha 1 thrown up his job as a bad one. Nothing daunted, lie proceeded to (bar ter the Lila Mattie, a sailing vessel, and these men were suit t.» Tils aid Fred P. Drowne of Providence. It.

Iguana, a marine Pzard five or six feet in length, ungainly looking brutes and n vage. w. n found along the coast lines. On the l irg.-r Mauds w. re wild 'a trie of a small size and a few goats, hogs, burros md wild dogs. There was no other mammal life, with th exception »f a ;1-w rats. No insect life was encoun tered during the entire trip, not even a mosquito. The party took over birdskins. cov *ring every known species on the islands, tnd several varieties that w. re absolute ly new. A remarkable fact was that islands only live miles apart had their >wn lis'inet species. Traveling hy water was almost as te dious as journeys on land. The strong intents swept away from the shore and tile winds were v ry light. The boat would drift away from the point sought. [>nce. when trying to make a harbor hut 110 miles distant. 12 days was required and over 1 Fm» miles was covered. During the whole trip away from this country of eight months the men were on land working hut ini days. The reason for the tortoises being near ly extinct is because wild logs have hem Iropped at Uie islands from trading ships which have multiplied and eaten the eggs and destroyed the young. Why. there ire only three small tortoises among the three score now at Hdye Park. Further more. the natives have hunted and hunt id them for food and for the oil product WHICH IS MIN' U>CII in COIIKIMg. San Framiseo was reaehe I. on return. Feb. S. lsc«is. Mr. Harris had Ion?;- suf fered from the effects of a slight attack of fever and in that city was under the lector's care for nearly a month. Health ■uitlieiently recovered, lie came across the continent, bringing to Mr. Webster the game which he was sent to hag. He reached Hyde Park on May 11, isos. Al though Mr. Harris has been deeply inter ested in work of this kind, since he was IS years old. he says he hasn’t the least desire to repeat his experiences of the past 12 months. The specimens of bird life were shipped from San Francisco direct to Mr. Koth sehilds in bond. The tortoises will bo forwarled to London in a few days. Mr. Webster says that in 1S11. ('apt. Parker, commanding an American priva teer. landed on one of the Galapagos and picked up a tortoise. He sailed to an island near Australia and landed the tor toise4. which then weighed r>s pounds. In March, of this year, that same one. in- creased in weight t• N5S pounds, was re ceive ruse. GEO. F. EVANS, General Manx srer; F. E. Boothby, Gen'l Pass, and Tick &t Agent.

When Johnny Reb Heard the Music He Treated G. A. R. Man and Toasted Soldiers. An old man came cantering across tlic avenue last week, and, accosting n A. K. man, asked some pertinent questions about enlisting. Where he hail kept himself would have been hard to tell, but ho looked pretty much as though he had spent the 30 or more in tervening j.vears between the last war and this in grabbing for goobers. lie excitedly exclaimed that the bugle did it all. He had uncomplaingly gone the rounds of his humdrum life. When war was declared he read the papers with great interest, but no thought of taking an active part pre sented itself. JJe came to town the day lie fort? I see about an old war claim, ,'iml as lie paddled dowji the avenue, passed a good many men In soldier clothes. Having no lingering fondness and no tender memories uf the ecdor, they, failed to Impress him. A hand or so passed him on the way, and though he stepped a trifle livelier when they played "Dixie,” and the perspiration trickled down his face as he Struck a trot with "Yankee Doodle," when they sent “My Country, "Pis of Thee,” floating down the avenue, he just stopped and took off his hat. It was when he neared Market space that real patriotism struck him, when the bugle sent its merry, chorry call re verberating across the way. He had I not heard it since he was a soldier in gray, and Hoods of memories rose up and waited him over to Market space, lie was quite "tit of, wind from doing a double-quick march when he landed up against the old U. A. It. man find began his interrogations.-* After the man in faded blue had an swered fill patiently, and tried to dis suade him from presenting himself for enlistment, all to no avail, he finally said: “Cook here, partner, I’ve done all I could for the union, and you done all you could agin’ it. I was only right because I come out best. If you all had, why, you’d a-been right. We ain’t got much longer here in these ranks, noway, find ’spnse we, just send a schooner adrift to the health of the hoys in fie- present conflict.” Over the way they went, as chipper as the rawest recruit, and felt better for being able to serve their country by a wholesome union of good wisles. j Washington Post.
