I Hera hy ey Drs te a Baling Called “Unele Dick.” Supervisor Pridgeon of the third district is the humorist of the Board. He pion story-teller of the whole county, and he is never so happy as when telling a joke on himeelf. “How is it,” asked the Transonipr Man -this‘moraing, “that every body calls you Dick, although your given initials are F. M. ?” .“There’s quite a story connected with it,” said the gentleman from North Bloomfield. “I was born in the State of Georgia near the South Carolina line. About the time I came into this world all the boy-babies in that part of the country were being dubbed Francis Marion in honor of the Swamp Fox of South Carolina, who was almost as much ofa hero then and thereabout as Admiral Dewey is throughout the ‘country today. “When I grew to boyhood my folks . got tired of getting me mixed with the numerous other Francis Marions of the neighborhood, and began’ to call me ‘Dick’-as-a distinguishing mark. —I grew to love the name, and my fandness for it increased with the passing Prof. John Tilton brought to town} SUrgeon thinks to his professional. years, until last summer something last evening some splendid samples of knowledge that the applicant is sound . happened that in an instant changed . > ore from the Cleveland mine on the and good, which examination is a try-. my affection for it to a deep, undying South Yuba ‘river.

Webber, the cyclone evangelist, is suf-fering at San Francisco from nervous prostration, is no surprise to many Nevada Cityans who observed him daring his recent visit to this city. He was then clearly beginning to manifest signs of a necessity for rest. His head seemed to be giving him trouble.

During the last session of Cohgriss it was decided to increase the Marine Corps from 3000 to 6000 and that is why statione have been established in many cities near the coast. As soon as the ‘required number of men shall become enlisted these stations will diappear, a pbumber of which are ander the command of an officer who details a noncommissioned officer in the immediate charge of euch. ‘The. reason for this is that the Corps is so small that its officers are comparatively few.

For instance, only forty marines from the Oregon captured “Playa Del Este,” near Guantanamo, Cuba, June 15th, 1898. Then all considered he is pretty well treated compared with the sailors, for he does not have to turn out-of his warm hammock till seven a.m., while the Jack tar has to fall out at four and-turn-to with a brush and scrub till breakfast lat eight. pk The marine usually has three years ‘. 8ea service and in that short time may ‘} see a great deal of foreign countries. -.
