A, Aiken was the last speaker, and he referred in a compli- mentary manner to those who had spoken before him. The matter which he bad to present was that of the bill before the senate incorporating tha Grand Army. He stated that his at- tention was first called to it by the quartermaster of the post, who thought that the provisions of the bill might affect the property of the individual | posts. He thereupon took up the mat- | ter with Senater Brandegee and oth- ! ers, and reported that he learned that the quartermaster’s fears were without | foundation. The desire is to incorpor- | |ate the Grand Army so that it as an| organization can hold property and re- ceive legacies to meet the expense of holding the natfonal encampments. | There is now a fund of about $34, 000 { for that purpose in the hands of the trustees. The matter has been before the nationa] encampment, but it has | never acted favorably upon it, but it | will be presented in this year, and |t understood the senate will take |no favorable action until the approv-| al of the natlonal body is secured, Jmmming that the national encamp- { ment must approve before there is an | incorporation. | During the evening there were pleas- i ing selections.by Bullard’s orchestra.| arranged by Quarter- | ssisted by Sur- The supper w: master C.
