STATE'S GRADUATES IN IT.—Commis-
sions were issued from the Adjutant Gen'ls.
department at Harrisburg, on Wednesday,
for the officers of the new provisional
Guard of the State and among them are to
be found five of the recent graduates of
State College. They are all commissioned
brevet second lieutenants in the first bat-
talion of the state naval militia. John
Tonner Harris, of Bellefonte, and W. A.
Hutchinson, of Warriorsmark, are among
the fortunate.

BELLEFONTE’S NEW MILITARY CoM-
PANY SworN IN.—What will probably
be known as Co. L, of the 21st Reg.,
Second brigade, of the provisional guard
that is being recruited in Pennsylvania
was mustered into the service here on Mon-
day night. Maj. Frank P. Patterson, of
Freeport, was the recruiting officer and in
conjunction with H. C. Quigley Esq., who
organized the company, and Col. Amos
Mullen, the work was carried through
with dispatch. Maj. Patterson is a mem-
ber of Gen’l Miller's staff of the new Sec-
ond brigade.
Quite a large crowd of people gathered
at the armory of Co. B, corner of Lamb
and Spring streets, where the recruiting
was done and at first it looked as if there
would be more than the needful number of
recruits. Some of those who had signed
the paper backed out, however, and fifty-
nine were secured.
After all the men had taken the follow-
ing oath
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will sup-
port the constitution of the United States of
America and the constitution of the State of
Pennsylvania, and that I will honestly and faith-
fully perform the duties of a soldier of the Na-
tional Guard of Pennsylvania according to the
laws governing the same, and that I will obey
the orders of my superior officers and that the
statements herein made are true
They were lined up and Maj. Patterson
addressed them briefly on what would be
expected of them. Then they elected their
officers. It was generally conceded that
Mr. Quigley would be made the captain of
the new company, bat Col. Amos Mullen’s
name was placed in nomination and Mr.
Quigley withdrew. It is said because
he expects a Lt. Colonelecy or a major-
ship on the Regimental staff. The selec-
tion of Col. Mullen as captain was a most
excellent one, however, as his long exper-
ience as a tactician and disciplinarian will
stand him in good stead during the trials
of handling such a body of raw recruits.
The contest for 1st Lieut. was between
James Harris aud John Trafford and it
looked like either’s victory until the latter
withdrew and Mr. Harris was chosen. For
2nd Lieut. two names were presented :
That of A. Boyd Musser and W. C. Cas-
sidy. The latter carried off the honor and
the elections were ended.
The men were given a little taste of
drilling and ordered to report at the
armory on Wednesday night for drill,
after which they were dismissed. The
roster of the new company is as follows :
Mullen, Amos. Kelly, William T.
Harris, James H. Keichline, John.
Cassidy, Wilbur C. Lucas Wm. F.
Barlet, Sidney S. Meyer, Samuel H.
Barry, James E. McNichol, James.

In another column will be found the or-
ganization of the new Guard; this being
the last of the twelve companies to be
mustered into the 21st Reg. There has
been more or less comment as to what will
be the relative positions of Co. B and this
new organization with reference to the
armory and the rightful position in the
Guard of the State, when the old organiza-
tion returns from the war. Those who
seem to know most about the situation say
that many of the U. 8S. Volunteers who
return will not enlist in the state service
again and that it will take all of the men
who can be mustered in out of hoth these
organizations to make a full complement
for one company under the regular army
requirements of 106 men.
If this be true their will be an avoidance
of any danger of a clash between the com-
panies and we hope it is.

cemetery and was largely attended.
Fletcher Paine died at his home near

Two little children of John Snyder had a
frightful ride on a water tank with a run-

fortunately uninjured, but the mother, see-
ing the situation of her children, fell in a
faint from which she was a very sick woman
for several days. She is improving from the
shock slowly.
The fellow who attended the Baileyville
picnic last Saturday evidently had an idea
of lifting the prize for cats, but arriving on
the grounds he found the pussies gone—bag
and all. The sack can be had without
charge.
