QUR BRAVE
Citizen Soldiers
Iu the death ot Lieutenant L, I.
Seeley, of Company D, the Thirteenth
regiment has met with a loss that
neither puu nor speech can estimate.
There is not an Oraoer or au eulistod
man in tbe regiment who can ever tor
got tho genial, courteous and manly
suhaltran. V lather iu uniform or
citizen's girt), Lieutenant Seeley was
always the sams noble, kind aud 0 nv
alroUl gentleman. His fellow officers
not only respected him, but they loved
and they will love Ilia memory so long
him. as life lasts.
His death is a sad blow to the regi
ment. There is not au officer in the
regiment who will b morn truly
missed nor more sincere) mourned.
Iu his own company, iu the. board of
officer, in oamp and at the rifle rauge
Lis genial, happy preseuce will indeed
be sadly misseii. He was a thorough
soldier and a chivalric officer, always
found nt U i at post and u-ver known to
neglect it duty or speak an uukitid or
disrespectful word to sup trior or sub
ordinate Pie was oue of the best shots
on the regimental team, and it was
greatly due to his nerve nnd unerring
aim that tho regiment won such dis
tinguished honors at Croedmoor lsst
fall, "1'is sad and hard to realize that
the noble, big hearted and Christian
fellow officer will never again hear the
"reveille,' and "lops" of tho future
camp life of tho regiment, in our
grief at tho death ot our beloved fel
low officer wo are consoled with tbe
IMUranoe that he has gone to his eter
nal heavenly home.
The following is bis military record
Lavarett I. Seeley enlistsd private, Com
pany D, April C, 1888: promoted cor
poral, June '.'0, 1SSU: promoted ser
geant, Feb. 83, 1688. promoted first
sergeant, April 11, 1890; promoted sec
ond lieutenant. July 11, 1890, mustered
out by death, Jan. 0, 1894.
His Christian life mid death will be
a liviutr example to bis fellow officers
as tli"y keep step with the marching
regiment.
The following is from Hie Philadel
phia Inquirer: "Without doub: one of
the most enthusiastic members of the
National Guard of Pennsylvania is Ad
jutant W. S. Millar, of the Thirteenth
regiment, who is at present at the Lv
fayotte. For tho past ten years Mr.
Millar has been one of the best officers
of his regiment. Just now bis ardor
is n little dumpened because the $150,
000 armory whieh be expected to see
built next year at Scrum mi will not go
up for a while longer. Talking of the
aubj-ct nearest his heart yesterday he
said that 33.000 had been pledged prior
to the stringent times, but just now
tho project has been temporarily laid
on the shelf. Those who have visited
the shabby quarters of the Scranton
guard will agree with Mr. Millar that
a suitable armory is au urgent re
quirement of that city."
Should Company A be so fortunate
as to Keep Lieutenant Stillwell with it
for another term of five years and elect
him captain at the coming olection, it
will have at its bead a masterly com
mauder who will keep the company
where it stands today, at tho head of
the guard. He is an officer of brilliant
military knowledge, a gentleman of
courteons bearing, and is destined in
the future to be tbe colonel of the
regiment.
It has been definitely settled by the
governor, adjutant general and Gen
eral Snowden that tne next encamp
ment will bo by divisions, aud the
place Gettysburg. The date is not
agreed upon as yet, but it will be some
time during the month of July next.
Thero is n warm contest for the cap
taiticy in Company A. Tills company
is distinguished for its large numb-jr
of competent uon-commisstone 1 oili
cers, and the company will not suffer
for the waut of a competent captaiu.
There will bA a regular meeting of
tho board of officers or the Scranton
City Guards at the Armory tonight.

Election of officers and other import

Major Whitnev. ot the Scond bat
talion, came to Scrautou last Thursday
to attend the obsiquiel of tbe late
Lieutenant Seeley.
The regiment has settled down to
hard work nnd much will be accoui
plished between now and camp in tbs
way of military efficiency. The spring

B. Rockwell, Company H. expired

After Bwearlnir Off
How many have taken vows of ubti
nolo o with too birth of the new year is
perhaps hard to estimate, but we now
know that such efforts are futile ngatust
inveterate habit, a habit which has become
a disease. There was a time when it
Wi uld have been easy to quit, but having
neglected to do so tho habit continued un
til uy the coustaut or friquent use of the
poison thero was forced a change In the
nervous system which made it not i nly
possible to driuk, but necessary. Then
you could drink a good deal and not seem
to get drunk, but you also found It neces
sary, to keep you feeling good aud you
"craved liquor" because you bad become
diseased. Now that swearing off does no
good and the pledge can' t be kept, go aud
uniko your resolution good for all time by
taking treatment at the Keeley Institute,
7'.'0 Madison avenue, Sranton, Pa.
