The zovernor and staff will not be recog- nized as a part of the organized mil- itia and ean only be maintained t tate expense but the state consad- ored a territorial military department with the governor as commander-i hief.

Rhode Island has three troops of {in Newton avenue, | cepting | of | bunches they |in Westerly. cavalry organized into a squadron with a majfor and staff, but the new orders require four troops to a squadron, and another troop must be added or the office of major abolished, and the three troops designated as separate com- mands. The state has seventeen companies of coast artillery divided into two dis- tricts ,each with a colonel and staff. According to the new regulations no unit of less than twelve companies will be entitled to a colonel and staff and where there are less than twenty-four companies only one colonel is allowed, Either this branch of the service must be increased by seven companies or one colonel and staff will be eliminated. In that event the one colonel would have a staff composed of a lieutenant colonel, three majors, three captains, three first and three second lieuten- ants for staff duty. The members of independent char- tered commands will be deprived of the use of government rifies, ammunition and targets at the rifle ranges. Miss Julia Arlcine Berry died at the home of her brother, John W. Berry, Wednesday eve- ning, in her seventieth year. She had lived with her brother for the past three years and has been weak men- taily for the greater part of that time. Soon after being confined to her bed, three weeks since, she became men- tally strong and bodily weaker until near the end. Miss Berry was the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. ‘eeden H. Berry. She was born in terly a few vears when she was en- gaged in the millinery business in Nor- ut forty years ago. She was of Eeimore Berry of that Berry is survived by one W. Berry, and a half- anton P.

She was known in Westerly and was | of the First Baptist church. | Twelve companies of coast artillery from the island forts arrived at Fort Mansfield, Wednesday, and for the next ten days will be engaged in field man- euvers within an area of ten miles of Waesterly, remaining in the vicinity of Watch Hill for the first four days, pre- liminary to hi ouacs, and gen- eral field wor ymen. With so many soldier lized several miles from active civilization at this season, it was no surprise that about ur hundred of them made a visit to the village of Westerly Wednesday night. Those who came were not all the real goody-goody class and in did things that have meant court martial to commissioned officers on the charge of conduct un- becoming to gentlemen and officers and prejudicial to the good name of the uniform and the service, or something alopg that line. Some. of the brave boys in khakl freed from their island homes, remind- ed by their acts the return of the old- time whalemen from a long v who freed from what was cons long confinement, attempted to brate their coming, just as they saw fit, and without regard to law, order or the conditions of regular residents. But the old-time Jack Ashore never did what the soldiers did Wednesday | night. for there were no trolley cars in _thc days of free rum and sailors’ rights. In the trips to and from Wntdh Hill the soldiers practically took p of the troliey ars.
