ADJUTANT GENERALTS REPORT.

Year Ago.
*
RALEIGH, Dec. 26."The annual
report of Aajutant General Cam-
eron for 1894 skows that the ef-
forts to perfect the organization
ot the State Guard, as well as its
efficiency, are satisfactory, con-
The arms and uniforms are in
perviceable condition. During
the year 28 enlisted men were
honorably discharged and 12
dishonorably discharged. That
theré is a decided and steady mii-
itary spirit is shown by the fact
that since February, 1593, no iess
than 26 applications for permis-
sion to organize companies ohave
been received. This increase is
despite the abolition of fancy
uniforms and fancy soldiering.
The Adjutant General strongly
in camp be rationed and that
some compensation be allowea
them.
The First Regiment, 8 compa-
nies, has an effective strength of
334; the Second, with 7 compa-
nies, has 356; the Third, with 7
7 companies, 337; the Fourth,
with 8 companies, 339; cavalry
troops and puoattached infantry
company, ( ored) 83; three di-
visions Naval Reserve, 155; bri-
gade staff 8; general staff 138;
total 1,620, or 235 less than in
1893. Eighty-eight per cent. of
the troops wefe present at inspec-
tions. Good work was done at
the cantp. by the Third end

$500 ; encampment ; $5,000 ; total,
$16,672.65. The heatlh of the
troops in camp was good. A hos-
pital corps is warmly recommend
ed by the Surgeon General; also
a medical crops. Four times
during the year troops were call-"
ed on to aid the civil authorities
by guarding the jails; etc. Com-"
panies B, First Regiment; F, of
the Third, G, of the First, and C,
of the First, were thus cailed on
and in all cases the response was
prompt. There were two occa"
sions where troops were a guard
at executions. The Naval. Re-
serves are equipped with Lee
magazine rifles and have also 4
Gatling and four howitzers.

Red Rooster Turns White.
Can the leopard change his
spots? Hardly, but ared rooster
may turn white. Mr. 8S. E. Foy
has a white game rooster which
last spring was as red as any
manTs rooster. He began to shed
off and the red feathers kept
giving place to white ones until
there was not a colored feather
on his body. The bird about two
years old.. History tells of men
whose hair was turned gray in
one night by a great excess of)
grief. This bird must have been
a Democratic prophet and tarned
gray from the great grief he felt

tions. " Gastonia Gazette.
