22 THE NATIONAL GUARD] Transfer of Property Down Town is in Progress. PACKING IN ORDER AT THE ARMORY Lieut. Griffiths Authorized to Or- ganize the Foot Battery. Sd PRAISE FOR FIRST REGIMENT The removal of the troops of the Na- tional Guard from the L street armory to the new quarters at Center market build- ing is in progress so far as the transfer of United States property from one place tu the other is concerned. The express com- pany that has been awarded the contract for moving the United State property be- Ban operations yesterday morning and ex- pects to complete the transfer before this evening. In connection with the move the follow- ing general order has been issued from headquarters: “The brigade, except the Ist Battalion, Company C, 2d Battalion, the Ist Separdte Battalion and Troop A, will be removed to its new armory, located in the Center mar- ket building. on Pennsylvania avenue be- tweeen 7th and 9th streets northwest, with the least practicable delay, under the su- pervision and direction of the qartermaster general, the removal te be completed by Saturday, January 29. To this end the pub- lic property of the various organizations will be carefully packed and marked ani turned over to the quartermaster's depart- ment for transportation, and, pending the completion and asssignment of quarters, it will be stored in the drill hall of the new ermory. where it will be safely kept until the quarters are ready for occupancy. “Company and private property, other than that belenging to the United States, Willl be removed at the expense of the com- Fany or organization to which it belongs. “Company lockers are a fixture of the building and will not be removed. “Drills and gallery rifle practice will be suspended until further order: All battalion commanders and all officers of the quartermaster’s department have been directed to report headquarters Monday evening next at 8 o'clock to receiv further instructions in regard to the mov At is quite likely that considerable propert will be moved by the members of the guard themselves, the several commands being marched to the new quarters in heavy marching order. Packing 1s in Order. The L street armory presents a decidedly dismantled appearance, everybody being hard at work packing. Although the un- dertaking is rather mammoth, the indica- tions are that the transfer of all property Will be completed by the end of next week. In a cireular just issued from headquar- ters it is stated that in connection with the contemplated removal of the armory from its present ation, commanding officers will give timely orders to their respective «#mmands with a view to the prevention of damage to the quarters and building by marking or defacing the wails, disfiguring the paper. breaking of glass, or otherwise causing damage or injury in any way to the armory property. Organizations will be held to a strict account for any damage reported. and the same will be charged against any in whose quarters it appears. mmanding officers will also give the ssary directions for each organization to have its quarters and the halls leading therefrom properly policed and swept ou: before finally leaving them, that the condi tion h may reflect credit, instead etherwise. upon its late occupants. TI having been done, the quarters will be locked up and the keys turned in to the Superintendent of the armory. Headquarters, the offices. of Colonel Heyl, Captain Slocum and the headquarters clerks, as well as the quarters of the gen- eral staff. will be established next Tuesday in the Ames building, 1410-1412 G street. ‘To Organize the Battery. J. H. Griffiths, who formerly held com- mission as one of the lieutenants of Light Battery A. has been authorized by the com- manding general to proceed with the organ- ization of a foot battery. During his con- nection with the guard, Lieutenant Grif- fiths was an able, painstaking and popular offic and placing him in charge of the foot battery is conceded by all to mean Success for that portion of the brigade. Lieutenant Griffiths has invited all inter- ested in the battery to meet him Wednes- day next at 8 o'clock, in room 219, L street armory. He states that he means to have the foot battery in a flourishing condition before the expiration of thirty days. ‘That Second Battalion Majority. There have been no developments of a definite character in connection with th: vacancy of major of the 2d Battalion. Among those mentioned for the place is First Lieutenant Joseph W. Anderson, ad- jutant of the 2d Battalion, who has been connected with the battalion almost since the date of the organization of the brigade. ‘the friends of Lieutenant Anderson cail attention to the fact that he is a thorough- ly trained soldier, and is in every way walified to take command of the battalion. here is no indication, however. that the ancy will be filled until the troops are thouroughly settled .at the Center market armory. ¥ Praise for the First Regiment. Unquestionzbly the event of most inter- est during the past week was the assembly of the Ist Regiment Monday evening in Convention Hall. The affair a thor- ough success in every particular, and re- flected more than the ordinary degree of credit on Colonel Alexander and the mem- bers of his command. Especially praise- worthy was th» exhibition drill of Company ©. 2d Battalion, under Capt. Charles $. Domer, the company being seriously hand capped in the way of preparation by the presence of a number of recruits, baa weather that prevented outdoor dril!s and the fact that dress uniforms were not pro- red until the last moment. The work of Major Ross’ command in battalion drill was also worthy of special mention. The large audience present attested its ap- proval in no unmistakable manner, and the assembly was of benefit in more ways than one to the regiment and to the entire bri- ade. Firsf Separate Battalion. At an election, held Monday evening last, First Lieutenant E. L. Webster was elect- ed captain, and F. Harries Burgess, first lieutenant of Company A, Ist Separate Bat- talion. Lieut. Burgess is a graduate of the Colored High School, and during the last *chool year commanded Company A of the High School Cadets. The consensus of epinion throughout the command is that he will make a thoroughly efficient and valuable National Guard officer. First Lieutenant Thomas L. Upshaw, surgeon of the ist Separate Battalion, has tendered his resiznation. His successor will be Hospital Steward Philip Broome Brooks. Special lockers are being constructed at the armory of the Ist Separate Battalion for full dress uniforms. Discharges, Honorable and Otherwise The special order discharging Private Reginald A.

Frem the Gentleman's Magazine. During the Elizabethan period there grew up in England a great national liking for sweet things. Not merely was this seen in the general taste for sugar confiture, but it was manifested in the general demand for sweet wines, the rich sherries, the char- neco, the sack, the sugary almond-flavored sack-posset, and other drinks of the same class. In drinking, as in eating, the in- crease of appetite for sugar grew by what it fed on. Though not a sweetmeat in the strict sense of the term, “sack-posset” so largely represented the taste of that time for sweetness and flavor that the recipe of Sir Fleetwood Shepherd, given by Mr. How; ard Staunton in Fis Shakespeare notes, is werth quoting: “To make a sack-posset: Take two quarts of pure good cream and a quarter of a pound of the best almonds. Stamp them in the cream and boil with amber and musk therein. Then take a pint ef sack in a basin and set it on a chafing dish till It be blcod-warm. ‘Then take the yolks of twelve eggs, with four of thelr whites, and beat them well together; and 80 put the eggs into the sack. Then stir all together over the coals till it is as thick 28 you would haye it. If you now take some amber and musk ang grind the same quite small with sugar and strew this on tcp of your posset, I promise you that it shail have a most delicate and pleasant taste.” There was another mixture of the same class called “rambooz,” made of eggs, ale, wine and sugar. — A Bucksaw for a Stuttgart Banker. Frem the Indianapolis Sentinel. Herman Kaulla, a bookkeeper employeu by a Meridian street jobbing firm, yester- day sent his fatter, who is president of the Royal Bank of Stuttgart, an old-fashioned bucksaw. Several years ago Mr. Kaulla’s physician récommended that for exercise he use » saw every day. In Germany the bucksaw is unknown, the single-handed one being used altogether. In some manner Mr. Kaulla heard of a saw the use ot which required both hands. He orderea one in Stuttgart, and the dealer sent him & cross-cut saw. An Indianapolis gentle- man traveling in Germany called on Mr. Kaulla about the time he was trying to get a saw that suited him. He told him about the bucksaw, and, when he returned to Indianapolis, he related the circum- stances to the son. Yesterday the son pur- chased one, and it was started on its jour- ney to Germary last night. + ee The Timid Adorer; or, The Brush as a Matchmaker.

An odd marriage ceremony was perform- ed near this city today. K. P. Stewart of this county was sick, :-but what made mat- ters worse he was engaged to get married, and the wedding day was drawing near. His bride-elect, who lived in Harnett county, a beautiful and determined young woman with a soul as full of romance as a veritable Juliet, learning of her lover's dangerous illness, determined to hasten to his bedside and marry him at all hazards. ‘When she arrived on the scene she made haste to declare her intentions, and would listen to no proposals or ®uggestion as to procrastinating the consummation so de- voutly wished. The license was procured and the preacher was brought in right speedily, but another serious difficulty arose when it was ascertained that the license was Harnett county, and the resi- dence o fthe bedridden bridegroom was across the line in this county. The preach- er said he covld not perform the ceremony outside of Harnett county, and was about to leave the disappointed couple when sud- denly the bride, after inquiry, declared that she had mastered this obstacle. The county line was just in front of the hcuse, so the couple stood on the porch and the minister was placed across the county line, where he loudly shouted the marriage vows and listened while the assenting echees came back to him, A SE Fragrant Riches, From Puch.
