Camera fiends were without number In camp. Co. seems to be displacing Co. L. of Nanticoke, as the company which furnishes the majority of orderlies for the regiment.

For several years, Co. has been conspicuous In having an unusual lot of soldierly, good looking, well appearing men, and, In consequence, has led the regiment in the number of orderlies furnished. This company began camp as though it would hold its own, an orderly being selected from L's detail on Saturday. Sunday and Monday. But on the next day the choice shifted and Co.

had an orderly on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. The two Co. men selected on Tuesday and Wednesday have already been mentioned in the Gazette Edgar Probyn and Frank Felts being thus honored. Yesterday the guard was not formed until one o'clock, because of the inspection. Excellent material composed the details and Adjutant Jones had a difficult task in making a selection.

His first choice was Private Raymond Snyder, who re cently enlisted in the company, and is a popular young man of West Pittston. "I'll get a crack at the Ninth regi ment for this," yelled a man at dress parade last evening. "I'm a newspaper man, and the regiment will get a roast in tomorrow's North American." A great crowd surged about the upper end of the field where the reviewing officers stood. Guards were posted and Instructed to keep back the people. the view of Governor Pennypacker be ing partially obscured.

A certain man in the crowd refused to move back. and the guard pushed him with his gun. "You're only Pennypacker's po licemen." said the mouthy fellow, "and you can't put me off these grounds. I work on a newspaper." But he did leave, and that right quickly, when informed that he must go at once or be placed under arrest. Inquiry reveals that the obnoxious individual is a local correspondent for the North American.

Yesterday, Captain John Coolbaugh, of Co. was officer of the day; Lieutenant Francis, of Co. officer of the guard, and Lieutenant Dimmlck, of Co. supernumery officer of the guard. Lieutenant English, of Co.

was supernumery officer of the guard yes terday. Sergeant Major James Burns, Thl teenth regiment; Sergeant Major Luchsinger, of the Ninth regiment Private Edgar Probyn and several friends from the Twelfth and Thl teenth regiments, spent several hours at Mt.

FROM MURDER Highwaymen Shoot at Ham town Young Man. THEIR OBJECT UNKNOWN. Arthur Tischler Was on His Way Home From Work, When Shots Were Fired at Him Two Bulleta Pierced His Hat and Third Passed. While returning home from his work about midnight last night, Arthur Tischler, of Hamtown, was shot at by some unknown person or persons and had a very narrow escape from being struck by bullets which whizzed by him. The young man lately finished the machinist trade in Tou hlll's foundry and last night worked overtime on a breakdown which occurred.

He finished working shortly after 11 o'clock and was going up Rock street, near midnight, when he noticed, standing near the reservoir, sit ucted on the right hand side of the road a short distance above the Erie tracks, three men, whom he did not know. He passed by them on the road and was a short distance beyond them when he heard a shot and a bullet whizzed close by his head. A second shot followed, which clipped a piece from the rim of his hat, and this was followed by a third, which made a hole in the crown of his hat. He hastened as quickly as he could and was soon screened from the view of the men by a house in the neighborhood. He did not hear any more shots and thinks that no more were fired.

The men made no attempt to follow htm and he did not see them after the shooting. The young man has no idea who the men were and Is not aware of any person who might possibly want to do him personal Injury. He is a son of John Tischler. who conducts a general store pn Center street. OBITUARY.
