Battery 1 of the same regiment, act? cording to a scheme of organization! which has been received here from divisional headquarters at Portland. The scheme of adding tho third component group to the two now in existence, tho regular army and the national guard, was recently worked out. The 96th division embraces the whole of the state. Up to the present, no organizations have been formed lo cally, local reserve officers declared here today, but they anticipate the formation of skeleton organizations which will include commissioned and i non-commissioned officers and what ever enlisted personnel there may bo j available. Included III the officers t who belong to the reserve in Pendle 'ton are Lyman Hice, Charles Vlnier and Austin Landreth. All of the men are captains, the former in tho field artillery and the latter two in tlie in fantry.

The Organized Reserves aro the third component of tlui army of the United States, The lingular Army and the .National ! Guard mny be employed separately or together in minor und In major emer gencies, but the Organized Unserves constitute purely a war force and can be employed only In the event of a na tional emergency declared by Con gress.
